Me and V had finished all our classes and I decided to go and read.

It became dark outside as I sat alone in the library.

The smell of the worn musty pages made me feel calmer than ever.

It was all gonna be okay...Harry and Ron will be able to stop my father...right?

Suddenly Mcgonagall ordered all the students to head back to their dormitories and for the teachers to all meet on the second floor...the same floor I had to go through to get back to my dorm.

I packed up and sped walk out of the Library.

The sound of my shoes echoed through the empty halls.

I then heard a group of teachers talking in the next corridor.

I hid behind the wall and listened in.

"As you can see the heir of Slytherin has left another message"

No...

"Our worst fear has been realised...a student has been taken by the monster into the chamber itself"

Mcgonagalls voice quivered...another student...and they are down there.

My father didn't...wait...it has to be the Ginny girl!

The one who also wrote that message on the wall.

Does that mean...it's tonight!

My heart raced and pounded against my chest.

"The students must be sent home...I'm afraid this is the end of Hogwarts..."

What?!

Then Lockhart strutted toward the rest of the teachers too dumb to realise I was standing right there.

"I'm so sorry...what have I missed?"

"A girl has been snatched by the monster Lockhart..."

Snape's monotone voice bounced of the walls.

"Your moment has come at last"

"M-my moment?"

"Weren't you saying just last night that you've known all along where the chamber lies?"

"That's settled...we'll leave you to deal with the monster Gilderoy...your skills after all are legend"

"V-very well Umm I'll just be in my office err getting ready!"

He then once again strutted away...

Then the soft voice of Madame Pomfrey rung out the corridor,

"Who is it that's been taken by the monster Minerva?"

"Ginny Weasly"

Holy shit I was right.

I waited for them to leave completely.

I then turned the corner and...

Harry and Ron.

Staring right at me.

"Lydia? What are you doing here?"

"I was just coming back from the library"

I turned to the wall covered in blood...

Her skeleton will lie in the chamber forever

Totally not creepy.

"It's my sister...we have to do something"

"Will you help Lydia?"

I spun back round to see Harry holding out his hand for me to shake it.

"I know you hate your father Lydia and I know that your not a bad person...so help us"
