I trudged along the soft, damp moss of the forest path. The tree's soft whisper against the wind was like a lullaby, soothing and warm. It was so welcoming and calm. The feeling of security was all around when, abruptly, everything changed. My light smooth steps, turned to rough ridged stomps on the tough, rock path filled with twigs. I could no longer hear the tree's swaying movements with the breeze, they were replaced with the snapping sound of twigs being crushed behind me. For a second I could have sworn there was someone following me, like my crunching foot steps were not alone. I jerked my head to get a quick glimpse of what I thought was a tall man, towering over me, but I soon came to realize it was just a thin tree, bending close to close to the path. Frightened of my surroundings, I began to sprint. The eerie dark, green forest past in a blur beside me. I felt betrayed, like the sweet, welcoming forest had tricked me, lured me into this hell I was now trying to escape.

There was still some light left in the sky, quickly being submerged by deep gray, smokey clouds. I did not want to still be here when the only thing that somewhat kept the slight feeling of safety in my heart, disappeared behind the darkness. "Harry!" I call out. no response.

"Harry?!" I scream once again, still no response.

I could feel my pulse beating in my ears, blocking out all other sound except my breathing that was raggedly moving in and out of my mouth at irregular, gasping intervals.
I felt cold tears start to stream down my face.

I heard snapping sounds of twigs behind me once again,a feeling of dread crept up from the pit of my stomach, a cold wave embalmed me as the hairs rose on the back of my neck and my mouth ran dry. I was paralyzed on the spot , the menanacing aura holding me in a tightening grip.

A dark figure looms over me. His face hidden, beneath his dark hood. His hand lifted up to touch my chin forcing me to look him.

"I know you what you did," Is all the Dark faceless figure says. My legs give up making me fall to my knees uncontrollable sobs leave my body making me tremble. "No, no" I repeat. "I-I'm sorry" I manage to say in between my sobs.

"You're going to pay for what you did, Melody," he promises.

"No, no , no, no," I say, shaking my head violently.

"I'm so, so sorry,I didn't mean to" my voice coming out shaky and weak.

"To late for apologizes," was the last thing he said before disappearing.

Harry's P.O.V

"Harry!" I hear Melody scream i drop the glass of water I was about to drink on the ground causing the glass to shatter, and rush back over to Melody. She's shaking tremendously, and tossing and turning.

"Melody," I say soothingly shaking her lightly trying to get her to wake up. I repeat those same actions until She woke up with a violent shake, she screamed cold sweat poured down her face, her hands were shaking she didn't know where she was but she knew she had survived that horrible nightmare and that everything was going to be ok.
,
"Hey Mel-," I'm cut off by her wrapping her arms around my neck. I immediately wrap my arms around her waist pulling her into me, in a hug. "It's okay, Melody you're safe," I say trying to calm her down.

She shakes her head and cries silently into my neck. For me to say I'm surprised for her to even be touching me was an understatement, not that I'm complaining.
