Chapter 7

When I opened my eyes, the blanket was pulled up to my shoulders. Harry sat in the chair next to me. I smiled and sat up. I put my feet on the floor and sighed. Harry stirred but didn't wake up, so i through the blanket over him. I stood up and used the bed to keep myself up, as i walked out of the Hospital wing. As i walked down the hallway, couldn't help but feel like i was being watched. I looked behind me but there was no one there, i started to walk faster. I went around the corner only to run into something, I fell down.

I looked up to see a boy with pitch black hair and cold dark green eyes. He looked familiar but i couldn't place him. He was wearing Slytherin robes as well. He looked down at me with a cold stare that showed no emotion, not even anger. I gulped and stood back up. He was quite as he studied me.

" sorry" i whispered. he cocked his head and smiled but it was a cold smile. " its alright" he nodded

" i haven't seen you around before, my name is-" but he cut me off by saying" my name is Tom Riddle"

" Haylee walters or potter, i guess" i smiled, he seemed friendly enough." potter, as in harry potter" he asked and i nodded" he's my twin brother". He crossed his arms behind his back. I took a step back as he took a step forward, He smirked.

" i also go by another name, but you'll have to figure it, for yourself" i gave him a confused look. Then i remembered where i had seen him before, the trophy case. There had been an award but that was 50 years old. He should be an old man but he looked around 15. Was he ghost, or was i just dreaming.

" this is a dream, you cant still be this young" i mumbled and he chuckled" your the tom from the trophy case, you won an award for services to the school." he nodded.

" your getting closer, Haylee"

" to what" i asked.

" the truth, your not dreaming Haylee. Im inside your head" my eyes widened as i re-arranged the letter in my head." Voldemort" he threw back his head and laughed. " you really are a smart girl, Haylee. The other girl didn't exaggerate on your cleverness." i glared" who, what girl" he just continued to laugh as he grabbed me by the throat.

" in time, Haylee potter. But for now, Sweet dreams" then my world went black once again.

I shot up in bed coughing. I looked around, to find myself completely alone. It was the middle of the day, how long had i been out. I heard footsteps and looked over to see Hermione. She Hugged me and smiled.

" oh thank goodness your alright, ill go get Madame Pomfery" then she ran off. I sighed and rubbed my head, what a nightmare, but was it really. Madame Pomfery came over to me with Hermione and smiled.

"how long was i out" i asked her and she laughed" just a few hours dear" she reassured me patting my shoulder." what do you remember" Hermione asked and i laughed.

" your asking a person with a photographic memory, Hermione. I remember everything" she smiled and shook her head. " not a time for jokes, Haylee"

" how is your neck, dear" Madame Pomfery asked.

" it feels fine now, not even sore" she smiled" good, you can leave" then she walked off and i left the Hospital wing with Hermione. We went up to the common room so i could change my uniform. We walked toward the lake, but i stopped when i saw the writing on the wall.

The chamber of secrets has been opened
Enemies of the heir, beware.

It was written in blood. Hermione caught me looking and frowned.

" what happened, Hermione." i asked confused

"last night, while you were in the hospital wing, filtch's cat was attacked" my eyes widened. Someone had been attacked.

" everyone thinks its your brother" she said sadly, I shook my head

" but harry wouldn't do this" i snapped then ran down the hallway towards the lake. I sat down in front of the tree with tears in my eyes. I knew it wasn't harry, it was Tom. I saw Ginny coming toward me and i wiped the tears from my eyes. She down next to me and i frowned. She looked sad,like she had done something wrong.

" are you alright Ginny" she nodded" you don't look alright"

" can i tell you something, Haylee" i nodded confused." i think im the one that did that to mrs. Norris" i was quite for a couple minutes then i burst out laughing." that's a good one Ginny, your too sweet to don that" she frowned and my eyes widened.

" why don't you tell Dumbledore, Ginny. He will understand" she shook her head." i cant tell anyone, Haylee. Im scared" she pulled out a little black book and handed it to me." he's making me do it, Haylee and i cant stop him"

" who, Ginny" i asked

" he calls himself, Tom riddle" my eyes widened and i nodded" ill help you Ginny"

" you will" i nodded and she hugged me." thank you, Haylee. Now what ever you do, don't write in the diary" then she ran off. I looked at the little black book and gulped. I opened it to find it blank, Weird. I put the diary in my bag and walked back up to the castle. What did he have planned for Hogwarts, i wondered to myself as i walked through the portrait.
