I have also finished the whole plot in my head so I know where I am heading with this. Anyway enough of me! Here is chapter 5! Enjoy folks

Disclaimer: I don't own Harry potter

Run ,run ,RUN! Irina screamed, her own voice giving strength to her feet, making them move faster and faster through the tunnel. Something was after her, something dark and evil. Irina couldn't see it but she was able to feel it damn well. Was it even human? She had no idea; the only thing she was sure of was that if she has been caught she could never escape. She kept running, while searching for a way out, but the darkness was thick and by each step she realised that there is no such an option. She suddenly stopped and whatever was behind it stopped as well. Irina closed her eyes, she was fighting to breath, but her lungs was about to burst so she tried to inhale as few oxygen as possible. She heard a noise and felt a pressure in her ribs, so painful that Irina thought they were about to break. A scream escaped her but something that resembled a shadow covered her mouth. She was caught, whatever had her not only didn't want her to escape it was holding so hard she was about to suffocate her.

"I am going to die" she whispered tears in her face. Then she heard a whisper.

"You will never die."

Irina woke up once again from a nightmare to realise she was leaving another one. She covered her face with her hands, while trying to calm down.

"Didn't sleep well?"

She immediately jumped from the bed. Tom was sitting in his usual place again. She didn't realise he was here watching her sleep again.

"What time is it?" she asked, still trembling

"Four" He answered indifferently

"In the morning?.. Oh my god."

"Why are you in such a hurry? You don't have any lessons tomorrow" He said smiling

"I.." she tried to say an excuse, but nothing came out only one word was taking over her mind

"Enough" she managed to say her head down, her voice full of pure anger

"I will say when it is enough Irina"

She finally looked at him, her vision turning blurry.

"Let me go now."

"No."

"Why? I want an answer."

At her statement, he started laughing, he sounded so cruel so emotionless. Irina closed her ears she could take no more.

"STOP" she demanded abruptly.

Tom stopped his face covered with anger now, his eyes were darker almost...almost red.

She felt a wave of fear running across her spine, but she discarded that feeling immediately. This was enough; she couldn't allow this man to treat her like that any longer.

He took his wand out and pointed at her once more. "What do you think you are doing? You give orders to me?" His voice deadly "You are in no position to demand anything, I am the one to decide if you go and when you go, I am the one to decide If you live or you die".

Irina was feeling so angry like never before in her life. Her vision still slightly blurry and her body numb. No I won't let him torture me like that anymore NO. Irina thought.

Tom was still staring at her, Irina could tell he was trying to control his emotions as well, but this time things went pretty far. She saw him taking a step closer to her; she remained motionless like a prey waiting for a wild animal to attack. Another step, still she didn't moved back. He slightly lowered his wand, and with his free hand he held her firmly, forcing her to look at him.

Immediately she closed her eyes refusing to meet his gaze so closely. Her heart started beating like crazy. She could feel her blood pumping through her veins rapidly.

"Look at me!" he demanded, his voice lethal a dangerous whisper that caused Irina chills.

She slowly obeyed and opened her eyes slightly just enough so he could see him.

"Please let me go" she whispered brokenly. Tears ready to run across her face.

"Why?" he asked more talking to himself than her

"Because I don't belong here..not...with you" she muttered.

Tom blinked once...twice startled by her answer. His pressed his lips together, and his grip tightened causing Irina to wince. "Oh..."He whispered burying his face in her neck inhaling her intoxicating sent.
Irina stood there not moving an inch her heart ready to burst now, she could almost feel the faint blush in her face, without controlling herself she placed her hand in Tom's shoulder. Tom suddenly stilled himself like waking up for a dream and pushed her away from him violently. The impact with the hard surface caused Irina pain but she still couldn't stop looking at Tom. Tom raised his arm and run it through his hair his eyes lost, and frightened...

"Tom..I.." Irina began.

"But you will be...soon" he finished he eyes cold again..emotionless
He then took his wand from his robe and with a movement the room door opened.

"Go!Now!" was all he said, moving his head slightly to the direction her wand was.

Irina didn't hesitate she took it and run.

She run so quickly she was in Slytherin common room before she could even realise. Her shaking body ready to collapse for good, found support in a nearby chair. She grabbed her left hand and tried to concentrate..calm down.. make the trembling stop, but it was futile. Luckily the room was empty it was too early anyway. She took a sit by the fireplace, the heat making her body relaxed just a little.

"What is wrong with me? I need to put a stop in this madness. He will drive me insane, if this continues, and I can't just use it as an excuse to leave this place I haven't found a way to contact them yet...shit this is so fucked up!" "I don't even know what he thinks of me anymore.. one moment he looks like he wants to kill me and the next like...it's weird...aarrr" Irina covered her face with her both hands. "And I...why can't I just ignore him? Why do I feel like this I am soo terrified of him but still... I...I am just as insane as he is!" she finally admitted angry with herself. She saw the time it was 6 o'clock. With this another thought passed her mind ..Lucan...

"I need to go and visit him or at least find out how is he" with that she stormed out of the common room.

After a couple of minutes Irina was outside hospital wing. She knocked the door softly. "Excuse me? Is anyone here?" The door opened slightly. "Who is this at this hour?" A white hair woman muttered angrily, but when she noticed it was Irina standing at the door her expression changed to that of shock. "What do you want here in this hour Miss Randall?"

"I came to see how is Lucan I have been told he had an accident yesterday"

"Well yes but I am afraid this is not the time it's too early come back later in the visiting hours" with that she turned her back to Irina.

"Could you at least tell me if he is all right?" she asked just before the door was closed.

"He is getting better Miss Randall" she muttered annoyed now "His life is not in danger, what he needs is sleep I suggest you go to your dorms and come back later!" with that she shut the door behind her.

"At least he is ok" she said to herself feeling somewhat better. Just before making her way to the dorms she felt a pressure in her leg which made her jump. She then looked down.

"Ow Elvis what are you doing here? Did you follow me? I didn't even see you. Come here" she said taking the cat in her arms. The cat licked Irina's hand and rubbed himself on her chest. Let's go back Elvis I need a bath desperately" The cat meowed in that like hating the idea. "Hahaha don't worry" Irina said patting his said. "You are not getting one... not now at least!" With that she made her was to the common room.

After she had a shower Irina fed Elvis she then tried to sleep but after realising that she couldn't she just went to the common room and sat by the fireplace with her potions book.

"Well well well look who is up so early..."

"Can I have some peace Malfoy?" she simply said not even bothered to turn her back to face him.

"I see you still look well"

"Well thank you for caring about me so much, pity I can't say the same. Now I want to read my book If you excuse me"

He then jumped behind her putting his arms around her waist trapping her.

"What do you think you are doing? Let me go now" she demanded.

"Listen to me Randall..I am sure you have realised by know but let me just tell you this I am not a patient man so don't play with me got it? Or you will make me really really mad..." he continued he tone changing.. Irina then felt his left hand moving from her waist up to her stomach. She swiftly reacted and shoved him with all her strength drawing her wand.

"What's wrong with all of you huh? Why do you enjoy playing with people so much? Touch me again
and I will cut your hand off" she shouted, her voice pure rage.

"Well that brings back memories now doesn't it?"

"You basta-"

Suddenly footsteps echoed from the stairs. Somebody was coming. Irina quickly lowered her wand jumped in the sofa and opened her book pretending she was reading.

"Oh there you are Malfoy" It was Avery's voice "We were looking for you, u' re ready?"

"Yeah..yeah I am" he answered his voice had a tone of satisfaction..of victory Irina was tempted to just jumped and attack him again but she used all her willpower to stay in her sit.

"Let's go then" muttered Avery

After a couple of seconds Irina was finally alone. She didn't realise she was holding a breath she finally let out. Surviving here would be hard after all she thought.

After a couple of hours she decided to go and see Lucan. Irina went to the hospital wing and saw the doors open. She then entered and saw Lucan lying down in bed he left leg heavily bandaged.

"Hiya" she said smiling to him.

He raised his said his kinda sad expression changed to that of a mixed shock and excitement.

"You didn't expect me I suppose"

"Erm to be honest no..I didn't see you in the game so.." he finished with a disappointed voice.

Irina didn't know how she should replay to this. She of course couldn't tell him the truth

"I am sorry I know I promised I would come but something urgent came up" she finished apologetically. " I then was told that you had an accident and I was really worried I came to visit early this morning but they wouldn't let me so.."

"Really?" Lucan asked his eyes bright

"Yeah"

"Well It was kinda weird my broom just went out of controlled and I fall down, I was too high though I would have been dead If it was not for Professor Dippet."

"I see"

"Good thing I was so lucky just a fractured leg and bruises"

"How long will they keep you here?"

"A couple of more days until they will be sure I can go back to classes."

"Well that's good at least. I suppose we won't be able to meet this weekend after all?" Irina asked playfully this time

"Well yeah I guess" he said disappointed

"Well there is always another time let's just wait for you to recover. You need it anyway cause I will kick your ass just so you know"

"Ohh was that a threat we will see then" he said laughing

Three days before full moon and Irina started panicking again. Of course these couple of weeks Tom again haven't approached her but Irina was sure he was up to something and she couldn't risk getting herself caught in the night of the change. It was bad enough as it was she couldn't even search about feyes properly she was afraid to go to the restricted section and there were eyes everywhere like Malfoy watching her. Furthermore she had all these dreams about him most of them including getting herself caught by him in some torture was coming afterwards in some other things Irina shouldn't desire to do with him.. but she did soo much and that was driving crazy. She refused to be like all the other Slytherin fan girls who were so obsessed with Tom and were drooling every time he was around but secretly she was doing the same thing and she was ashamed of it. "Stop that" she said to herself you HATE him remember? "But what should I do?" she whispered "full moon is so soon I can't stay in the dorms obviously but outside he was always watching. Then she remembered something "You can trust me" he had said to her. Irina lowered her head yes she was feeling desperate. " I guess that's my only choice then.. Albus Dumbledore" she said making her way to his office

Irina took a deep breath and with all her courage she knocked the door. "Come in"

Irina stepped in the spacious room. Her eyes not daring to look at him. "Hello professor" she said slowly.

"Hello my dear, how can I help?"

"I came to talk to you" was all she said

Dumbledore nodded in agreement. "Sit" he said pointing the wooden chair in front of his office.

"I don't know where I should start from" she admitted quietly.

"Just take your time Irina" he said his eyes warm making Irina feel comfortable "I am not here to interrogate you merely to offer my help"

Irina nodded. "The truth is I am half feye sir. As you know my mother is a witch but my father wasn't one.
During the nights of the change I fight it that's why it is painful for me, although to be honest i am quite used to it after all these years"

"Is your mother aware of this?" he asked

"No and I don't want her to be" she finished making the point clear, that the things that will be said in these room is between her and him.

"Very well" he nodded

"I know that I cannot make it stop but for a reason I hate this part of me so much that I just block it every time it tries to overcome me automatically".

"Why?" he asked genially curious

"I hate them... the feyes" grief filled her eyes emotions that she was hiding deep inside her for years starting to come into surface

"Why?" he asked again

"Because they murdered my own father. Let's just start from there"

What do you think? Hope you found that interesting and also hope it still flows nicely with the first chapters after all I stopped the story for quite a lot of time. Next time Irina's past is revealed! Finally! Don't forget R&R!
