LILITH WOKE UP WITH A GASP. Her body trembling as she recalled her dream.

Thalia.

Her father.

Her mother.

Camp being attacked.

Lilith screwed her eyes shut as the light fell on her. Slowly, she opened her eyes and looked around, taking her surroundings in.

She was in the hospital wing wearing the hospital gown. Beside her bed were so many potion bottles. All labelled differently.

Lilith tried to remember why she was there in first place. Closing her eyes she tried to remember.

The scorpion army flashed through her mind.

She remembered the last thing she did was she took out the antidote and applied it.

Scorpion's venom was dangerous for demigods and it highly damage their organs as well as destroy their powers.

Lilith remembered her mother saying she was getting healed.

Lilith got off the hospital bed and put on her old clothes that were folded neatly beside her bed.

Lilith removed the curtains and her eyes widened at the scene in front of her. All the hospital beds had curtains drawn, each bed was occupied.

Lilith removed the nearest curtain and saw a petrified Hermione lying there. Lilith's eyes widened, she reached for Hermione's hand and gently held it.

Hermione was the first friend she made at Hogwarts. The girl was extremely loyal to her friends and that is all she could ask for.

She didn't knew what happened or why they had been ignoring her but Lilith didn't held any grudge against them.

Harry, Ron and Hermione were kids. They haven't seen the world as much as Lilith had seen. They didn't knew what was right and what was wrong.

Lilith's mind reeled back to the Chamber of Secrets as she recalled that the Basilisk was still roaming freely around the castle. Beside Hermione's bed was a mirror.

Lilith's brows furrowed, she noticed that Hermione's one hand was up like she was holding the mirror.

Suddenly it click. Hermione had seen the reflection of Basilisk, through the mirror. Lilith thought back to Colin. The kid must have seen the Basilisk through his camera.

Lilith recalled that Theo, Terry and she, they discovered that Tom Riddle was the heir of Slytherin, who attended the Hogwarts fifty years ago.

She tried to recall if there was someone who would have been at Hogwarts fifty years ago, that she knew off.

Lilith quickly made her way outside the hospital wing and ran.

Just as Lilith reached the second floor corridor, she spotted Peeves.

"Peeves!" Lilith called out.

The Poltergeist turned, his eyes comically widened as he looked at the raven haired girl. "Icky Lily!! You are alive!!"

Lilith gave him an odd look. "Yes ofcource, Peeves. I am alive."

The Poltergeist levitated untill he eye level with Lilith. "Icky Lily! you were green when I found you." Peeves said as he curiously looked at her.
