Haylee potter and the chamber of secrets

chapter 13

" what are you doing to her" i whispered.

" as she grows weaker, i grow stronger." he said as he picked up the diary." your nothing but a creep"i winced in pain.

" little Ginny, told me the story of how you survived, a little girl with nothing special but a memory. How two babies defeated the greatest wizard in the world"

" your not the greatest,Dumbledore is" I yelled at him through another wince and He glared down at me. We heard footsteps coming toward us echo throughout the room. He leaned down, picked up my wand, and aimed it at me.

" Silencio, Imobulus " he mumbled. My voice froze in my throat before i could argue or call for help, He smirked, turned and walked away. All i could do was blink. The footsteps got louder and harry ran past me toward Ginny, who lay next to me. He looked at me then back at Ginny and i saw sadness in his eyes.

I was turned away from them so I couldn't see what was going on

" Ginny, wake up, wake up" he pleaded

" she wont wake" i heard Tom say as he stepped toward Harry as he spun around. I tried to move but nothing worked.

" Tom ---- Tom riddle. What do you mean she wont wake, what about my sister"

" Ginny is alive, but only just. Your sister on the other hand, is only paralyzed"

" are you a ghost" he asked

" a memory, preserved in a diary for fifty years" he said pointing to the diary on the ground next to me.

" you've got to help me, Tom " he raised Ginny's head" we've got to get her out of here. There's a basilisk....I don't know where it is, but it could be along any moment...... Please help me------- " he was silent but then I heard his voice again" did you see ----- thanks"

" listen we've got to go if the basilisk comes -------"

" it won't come until its called"riddle explained, while they talked I tried to move again.

" what d'you mean, look give me my wand, I might need it ------"

" you won't be needing it" Tom said, I managed to move my hand, But not much.

" I've waited a long time for this Harry Potter " he smiled, I tried once again to move but only managed my foot. Tom was now explaining to Harry what happened and who attacked who. I saw harry glance at me and frown.

" Haylee, would never hurt anyone, same with Ginny"

" not willingly, but I persuaded them" I glared at him and he smirked." especially after I heard your stories from Ginny. How you both escaped with nothing but a scars, while lord Voldemort's powers were destroyed"

" why would you care how we escaped, Voldemort was after your time....."

" Voldemort is my past, present and future, Harry Potter..... " I managed to turn my head. " it seems my spell is Wearing off on your sister" he said as he took out his wand and wrote in the air three shimmering words:

Tom Marvolo Riddle

Then he waved the wand through the air.

I am lord voldomort

" you see" he whispered as i sat up Rubbing my head, i still couldn't speak." it was a name i was already using at Hogwarts, to my most intimate friends only, of course. You think i was going to use my filthy muggle fathers last name forever? I in whose veins runs the blood of Salazar Slytherin himself, through my mother's side? I, keep the name i, keep of a foul, common muggle who abandoned , just because he found out his wife was a witch? No, Harry ------ i fashioned my self a new name, a name i knew wizards everywhere would fear to speak, when i became the greatest sorcerer in world." if i could speak, i would have yelled at him but Harry said first.

" your not"

" not what"

" not the greatest sorcerer in the world, sorry to disappoint you and all but the greatest wizard in the world is Albus Dumbledore"

" he was driven out of the castle by the mere memory of me "

" he's not as gone as you might think" Tom went to retort, when music started to play. I looked up to see a beautiful red bird. I smiled, it was Dumbledore's phoenix.

I stood up as the bird dropped something in front of Harry, The sorting hat. Riddle starting laughing and i glared at him." this is what he sends his savior, a songbird and an old hat. Do you feel brave, safe." i picked up the hat and looked at it. I though about what it said when i was sorted, just looking at it i remembered his words.

Great mind and a brave heart like your mother, loyal yet sly when you want to be. You would belong anywhere but, i know where you belong

I looked at Ginny, she looked so pale. While i stood there looking at the hat and Ginny. Harry was arguing with Tom." Now harry, I'm going to teach you a little lesson. Let's match the powers of lord Voldemort, heir of Slytherin against famous Harry Potter and the best weapons Dumbledore can give him... " I looked at Harry and frowned.

" why didn't you tell Dumbledore" I looked at the ground, I knew I still couldn't speak but I had to try. My voice came out horse but I managed" I'm sorry harry" his eyes widened"I told you I'm not brave enough. I was meant for Ravenclaw not Gryffindor. The hat made a mistake, even if it never does it did with me. I'll never match up to anyone, and don't you say it." I looked over to Tom whose back was to us. I heard the words and understood them but I still knew they were parslelmouh.

Speak to me, Slytherin, greatest of Hogwarts four" the mouth of the giant statue opened. My eyes widened as a giant snake slithered from the mouth. I shut my eyes as Harry backed away. Again Tom spoke.
Kill the boy but leave the girl

I felt it go past me but I didn't move. I heard a scream and opened my eyes as Tom yelled" no leave the bird, leave the bird. The boy is behind you. You can still smell him, kill him" I heard the splashing of water fade away as I opened my eyes. Harry and the serpent were no where in sight. I was alone with Ginny and Tom once more. I looked at Tom to see him smiling evilly at me and I took a step back away from him. He chuckled" don't worry, Haylee. I have use of you still. " I gulped as he walked closer

" why don't you just kill me, like you plan with harry" I asked him glaring.

" because, I could use someone like you, Haylee. A clever, little witch with an amazing memory" he circled me but I didn't move, I wasn't afraid of him. " but why me"

" something is locked in your memory, something I need and intend to have. Join me Haylee and we'll unlock it together" he held out his hand. I took a step away, shaking my

" you killed my parents, tried to kill me, and are trying to kill harry. You expect me to bend to your will after all you've done to me and other people. Think again Tom, I'll never join you" I yelled

" never say never" he retorted pulling out my wand and rising it to me.

" why are you giving it back to me" I asked confused

" it's not like you can defeat me, without hurting Ginny" I glared at him.
