Chapter 4:

Harry jumped out of his seat, startling everyone at the table. They stared at him with wide eyes.

"Harry are you okay?" Ginny asked, touching his arm.

"Yeah I'm fine I...must go use the restroom," he mumbled.

"Ok...hurry back," Ginny said confused.

Harry barley heard her as he was already on this persons tail.

He saw him, he had slipped through the back door unseen. Or he thought he had slipped out the back door unseen but Harry caught him just as his clock disappeared through the entrance.

Harry hurried toward him pushing his way through the crowd. He slipped out just as carefully as the man and looked around.

The wind was hitting against his back brutally but that didn't stop him from sweating furiously. The hairs on his arm perked up alert as he looked around for this mysterious person.

Suddenly an arm clasped on his shoulder shaking him. Harry jumped. He turned around and was met by deep red eyes covered in a cloak completely. He wasn't saying anything, just muttering words with his head shaking uncontrollably. His whole body looked like it was going to give out.

"Um sir...sir are you okay? Who are you?" Harry asked uncertainly.

The mysterious man then fell to his knees onto the cold ground.

"Sir I'm going to go get help ok?"Harry said to the man.

"NOOO," the man croaked. "No one must know I was here."

"What? No. I'm going to go get help, ok? You are obviously not well," Harry said.

The man pulled himself closer to Harry, tugging at his robs. "No you cannot. No one must know."

He than pulled off his cloak and revealed his face.

"Lightman?" Harry asked unsure of what he was seeing.

"Yess it's me," Lightman replied.

Harry stared, astonished.

Lightman worked at the ministry of magic with him. He worked at the Department of Mysteries. Harry did not know him well but they had shared a few conversations at times.

"Who did this to you?" Harry asked.

Lightman shook his head,"Nevermind me Harry. It is you you must look out for. I don't have much time but I must tell you. The dark times have not ended as you had all hoped. New times are coming and you must beware of all things. Do not trust anyone Harry." He had gotten up to his feet, still wobbling.

"Lightman I don't understand, what do you mean the dark times aren't over?" Harry asked.

Lightman looked behind his shoulder cautiously.

"I'm afraid Harry I have said too much. Just remember what I told you, all of it," he added.

He then turned around and apperated, disappearing into the night.
