hidden angel

12. The basilisk

Ginny's POV
I stood there and shouted for someone to help, I looked at the book and knew I needed to throw it away. Then Hermoine ran into the corridor. I stuffed the diary in my backpack so she wouldn't see it. 'What happened Ginny' she asked I just looked at her not able to talk. We carried Jessica to the hospital wing and Madam pomfrey asked what happened as well. I was to afraid to tell her about the diary so I kept quiet. Madam pomfrey did some tests and said: 'She collapsed I can't find out why until she wakes up, so please go to bed'. We walked to the common room And sat down staring into the fire.

Madam pomfrey immediately send word to Dumbledore when the two girls had left. She new exactly why Jessie had collapsed, Dark Magic. Not long after Dumbledore came in with Mcgonagall on his heels. 'What is it poppy' he asked.  'Dark magic' she said.

In the next month Jessie rarely woke up. The first time she was awake for longer than an hour was around xmas

Jessie's POV
I woke up in a hospital bed feeling very tired. I turned on my side and saw a a bushy haired girl laying in the bed next to me. 'Hermione' I whispered. She turned around and I yelped she had a cat face and I now noticed that a tail was wagging around behind her. What happened to you I whisper shouted. She explained that she, harry and ron took polyjuice potion to change in to slytherins to try to find out who opened the chamber of secrets and the hairs she had were cat hairs. After 2 days Hermoine was allowed to go but I had to stay. I got my homework in the hospital wing because I was to weak to go to classes.

Ginny's pov Jessica had been in the hospital wing for months now I felt guilty and scared I kept writing in the diary and talking to Tom. But when I found out That Jessie was to weak to leave her bed I blamed the diary, so I walked to myrtle's toilet threw it in the toilet myrtle started to cry. I ran back to my dorm dropped on my bed and started crying. christmas went by and desired to have the diary back, I missed Tom, talking to him. then at valentines day I sent harry a valentines poem reading:

"His eyes are as green as a fresh pickeled toad
His hair is as dark as a blackboard.I wish he was mine, he's truly divine,the hero who conquered the Dark lord."

When Harry got it  his bag  split and his books dropped on the floor and in the mes of books and ink I saw the diary, the evening after that I sneaked into the boys dorm and searched trough harry's stuff I found it an ran to my room and started writing to tom

'Tom I am sorry for throwing you out''That's okay Ginny you were feeling bad about your friend'

I chatted with him for a while and then fell asleep.

Jessie's POV
I was finally allowed out of the hospital wing around valentines day. I walked through the halls and everyone greeted me happily because they were glad I was out of the hospital wing. I walked into the gryffindor common room and was engulfed in a group hug including 4 Weasleys, Harry, Hermoine and the Gryffindor Quidditch team. we chatted for a while and I eventually fell asleep on the couch. I woke up after a while in a bed and wondered where I was, I sat up and looked around I was in a dorm with 3 beds I looked at the trunks one of them said F. Weasley
and another said L. Jordan I understood that this was Fred and Georges dorm but wondered how I got in here. I walked down the stairs and saw everyone chatting and asked 'how did I get up in the Dorms?' 'I brought you there so you could sleep without disturbance' George said 'and because you don't sleep in the gryffindor tower we thought this would be best' Fred followed. 'thanks guys' I said. 

school went on and 2 weeks later the Quidditch match against Hufflepuff was planned. we stood in the changing rooms waiting for the sign that we could enter the stadium when professor Mcgonagall entered. 'This match has been canceled' she said, Wood reacted 'you can't cancel Quidditch'. 'Quiet wood Harry and Jessie you better come with me' Mcgonagall said. She started walking and Me and Harry walked after her, we picked Ron up along the way and ended up standing in front of the hospital wing. Mcgonagall turned around and said 'this might come as a shock to you'. We walked to one of the beds hidden by curtains and professor Mcgonagall pulled them aside. There on a bed was Hermione petrified. I let out a soft gasp of shock. We sat next to Hermoine for what felt like hours. Suddenly harry pulled something out of Hermione's hand it was a piece of paper reading: Of the many fearsome beasts and monsters that roam our land, there is none more curious or more deadly than the Basilisk, known also as the King of Serpents. This snake, which may reach gigantic size, and live many hundreds of years, is born from a chicken's egg, hatched beneath a toad. Its methods of killing are most wondrous, for aside from its deadly and venomous fangs, the Basilisk has a murderous stare, and all who are fixed with the beam of its eye shall suffer instant death. Spiders flee before the Basilisk, for it is their mortal enemy, and the Basilisk flees only from the crowing of the rooster, which is fatal to it. And in the corner was scribbled Pipes.
This is what is in the chamber of secrets we al realised. After a while we went to the common room and had a night with restless sleep thinking about what the paper said.

3 weeks later
I was walking through a hall after visiting Hermoine again when I saw ginny walking her hands looked red like she was bleeding. Irun after her calling her name but she didn't seem to hear me. She walked into myrtle's bathroom and I went after her, she said something that I couldn't understand and one of the sinks lowered down and revealed a dark hole. she jumped in it and without thinking twice I jumped after her.
I landed on ground covered with bones I didn't see ginny anymore so I decided to follow the pipes. I found a snakeskin that was incredibly long and eventually entered a large chamber. I saw ginny lying on the ground and run to her but before I could a fage form grabbed me and put a hand over my mouth. Quiet girl!he said. A sudden pain went through me a pain I knew perfectly well came from dark magic I fell on the ground and heard the voices in my head. They are trying to convince me to give in to the dark magic but I wont I am a good witch.
My head was pounding and I was struggling to keep consciousness. I heard another pair of footsteps enter the chamber after a while, In my weak state I tried to look up but that made the headache even worse. Then I heard a familiar voice close by it was harry hope rose up in me. I trust Harry with my life and finally gave in and went unconscious.

I woke up again staring once again up to the now familiar ceiling of the hispitalwing. I sat up.and saw sitting around me: the weasleys, Harry and Hermione. They looked so relieved that I was awake. We talked about everything that happened, how I followed Ginny, how harry killed the basilisk and how Harry freed Dobby the house elf from serving the Malfoys.

After a day mr and mrs weasley went home again and I was allowed out of the hospital wing. The last week of school went by in a blur and I was feeling a little down, at the end of the week everyone is going home and I will be alone again. It's not that I don't like living here but in summer it is just a little alone. At the last day I stood on the station waving to my friends. I got so close with them in the absent year, this is going to be a long summer.
