He slept on, unknowing of all that was going on, his dark thoughts protested to a dreemless slumber. Beady eyes of curious younger ones gazed over the lake's edge, watching him, and glancing at Ginny warily. One, dared to take a stick from the shore-side, and jab him in the arm with it. Still, he did not stirr. So the kids continued to poke his arm with sticks as he slept quietly, glancing at Ginny with innocent eyes.

Ginny's anger flared up before she could stop it and she held out her hands. "Oh! Go for a swim you brats!" She yelled, using her telekinetics to throw them into the lake.

"Oh what a great role model you are..." He muttered, rubbing his eyes tiredly, chuckling teasingly. "Thanks, I think. I'm not sure what was happening, anyway."
He sat up and grinned sleepily.

Ginny Weasly · April 18, 2005, 10:15:25 AM

She laughed and dropped beside him. "They get on my nerves so eaisly, lately."

"I hope we weren't that odd at that age." He said, grinning. "I s'pose we were."

Ginny Weasly · April 18, 2005, 10:24:54 AM

She smiled. "I didn't know you when you were that age. I wasn't even at Hogwarts when you were that age. I know I was pretty silly though. I got myself taken to the Chamber of Secrets. I was so silly to trust Riddle. "She shook her head.

Zack · April 18, 2005, 10:31:42 AM

"I wasn't at Hogwarts either. I didn't start at a magical school 'till fourth year. I was an arrogant idiot."
He laughed.
"The Chamber of Secrets? I think I might've heard of that tunnel. Not distinctly, though. That must have been a bit bad."

Ginny Weasly · April 18, 2005, 10:38:57 AM

She looked at him, her eyes filled with past horror. "Bad enough to haunt me. Wake me up screaming." She paused and shuddered. "That was when Voldm0rt had power. At least, people were afraid of him."

Zack · April 18, 2005, 10:57:40 AM

"Bad experiences. Horrible.. Wouldn't you say the old man has power now, though, too? I think fear, isn't the word, now. Weird, how to put it."

Ginny Weasly · April 18, 2005, 11:03:30 AM

"Not compared to other things. I learned I could take care of him when he captured Bill and Kiara. I'm not afraid of him anymore. What's going to happen is far worse than what he could do."

Zack · April 18, 2005, 11:08:56 AM

"And what do you know of what's going to happen?"
He lay back down, folding again his arms behind his head, closing his eyes.

Ginny Weasly · April 18, 2005, 11:17:38 AM

She puts her arms on her knees and buries her head in them. "I'm not compleatly sure. I only know what I saw and..." Her voice is muffled.

Zack · April 18, 2005, 11:27:05 AM

"And..." He said, listening still.

Ginny Weasly · April 19, 2005, 06:46:47 PM

"And it was bad." She stood, suddenly and walked closer to the edge. She scooped up a handful of rocks and began to skip rocks.

Zack · April 20, 2005, 09:35:17 AM

He peered over at her through half-opened eyes, and for a time, he was quiet.
Great, he thought bitterly. Like any of us needs more hellish times in our lives. Great. Joy. What a marvel this new thing is going to be.
He growled wolfishly, and laid his head back onto his arms, shutting his eyes. He said, nothing.
