THE HALLOWEEN BALL

Ron looked at Harry, shocked "Harry..don't" He said, standing up from kneeling down and following him, to try and stop him. "Harry..leave her..!"

Harriate frowned looking up at Potter.
'What you on about? Father? You know as well as i do i'm an orphan..and i don't even know the names of my parents nor do i really want to.'

Harriate raised an eyebrow wondering what the hell he was going on about.
'I can honestly say i don't have a clue what your on about. Why is my name Riddle? I don't know. I don't know if it's even my real name or not but it's the name on the orphanage files. What are you getting at?'

Ron looked at Harry as if he was mad. "What the hell is he doing?!" he mutterd to anyone who could hear, even if it was no one. 'What is he on about?' Ron kept thinking to him self 'Her father?' he asked him self 'what?' Then He remembered...the name riddle..Tom Marvolo Riddle. Lord Voldemort..even the thought of Voldemorts name made Ron shudder.

Ron just stood there, watching Harry and Harriate Talk/ Fight.

Hermione hurried over to where Harry now was and found Ron and Ginny stood near him.

"What's Harry doing?" She asked them worriedly "Whats going on?"

Harriate tried to blank all emotions from her face as Potters rant continued about how pathetic she was trying not to let on how much it really hurt her.
She was left standing there stunned as he said voldemort was her father.
It couldn't be. That was impossible. She coughed her voice already sore from all the speaking she had done that night already and she shook her head.
'he's not...'

Ron looked at Harriate, he felt slightly sorry for her, all those things Harry Had just said. Ron turned his gaze to Hermione, his hair was still black, but he could be reconized. He gazed at Hermione, she looked beautiful, he had forgot the surroundings, he was just gazing at her, his mouth hanging open.

When Ron heard Aidans voice, he came out of his day-dream "Just...leave it a minute..and if he goes further, ill...step in?" he shruged.

Rose shut her eyes for a moment, then turned to Ron and Aiden. "He's angry...really angry...but I don't think he's violent...not yet anyway. He feels betrayed...I think, I can't tell..." Her voice trailed off.

"I hope he does too" Hermione whispered to Ginny, watching the situation before her worriedly.

Harriates eyes widened and she stepped back before Potters hand clamped down tight on her throat. She gasped dropping her cane and tried to grab ahole of his hand to pull it lose but her fingers still wouldnt respond from the damage done by greyback.
She tried to back away but couldnt and felt the familiar stiring of her elements inside her wanting out, but it had been to long since she'd used them...it would cause to much damage. She pushed them down while trying to breath.

Rose clutched her head too. "It's not him!" She was confused and in pain. "It's...it's..." She couldn't work it out: she was getting the emotions from Harry, but they weren't his...

Ron felt himself step forward towards his best friend "HARRY, STOP IT!" Ron yelled at the top of his voice, like he had never done before "LEAVE HER ALONE, STOP IT!" he suddenly felt slightly brave, it was hard to stick up to an enemy, but with his friends it was harder, especially a best friend. Ron felt angry, Harry shouldn't be doing this to her, it was sick and wrong, very wrong!

Hermione followed Ginnys gaze and recognised the look she was giving Ron, Hermione turned to him and nodded slightly toward Harry and Harriate, hoping he would try and sort things out.
