Hp: The Outcast.

Ch.20 Don't drag me into this.

We then sat down, and he told me what he wanted me to do. I was hoping that it wasn't something crazy. He said, "Right now, I just want you to keep an eye out on Harry."

I looked at him, and he looked at me, and I asked, "That's it?"

He chuckled and said, "For now, that's it? Don't worry, your father has a lot of things planned for you."

I shook my head and said, "I suppose I am good with what you are asking me to do."

He nodded, and I asked him, "But how will you even get the stone? Isn't it heavily guarded?"

He looked at me, and he nodded, "It is, but I have been able to take some peeks inside, and it doesn't look all that challenging to be honest… I am just worried about something unexpected messing up my plans."

I nodded, and he said, "Don't worry, child, I'll be… we'll be successful as long as we stick to the plan." He sighed and said, "I will be whole in no time."

I was walking towards the Slytherin common room. I was still a little on edge from earlier, I still don't know what to do with all this. Voldy asking me to spy on Harry was a very lightweight task, but it still was risky, being involved in his plot and all.

I entered the common room and someone called out my name, I turned to look, and it was Victoria. She was sitting with Daphne. I walked towards them and Victoria asked, "Where were you?"

I sat down next to her and said, "I was with Prof. Quirrell, we were studying."

Daphne looked at me and asked, "So what did he teach you how to run at the sight of danger?"

I chuckled and Victoria said, "She is kinda right, you know he is not that good."

I shook my head and said, "That may be, but I am getting extra credits so, it's alright."

Daphne looked at me and said, "You are getting extra credits?"

I nodded, and I asked, "So what  have you guys been doing?"

We talked for a little while, but I still couldn't relax… he was still on my mind. I decided to turn in early and went to my room to sleep. I  was laying on my bed. I was struggling to sleep and Cotton asked me, "What is wrong?"

I sighed and said, "Well, my father wants to steal the philosopher's stone, and he asked me to help him… but I don't want to do it."

She came closer to the glass wall and said, "Then don't do it."

I chuckled and said, "Not that easy, cotton. My father is the dark lord… he kills people for less… he will surely off me if I don't obey."

Cotton nodded and said, "Then, just go along for now, until you can think your way out of it." She asked, "What does he want anyway?"

I sighed and told her about it, and she said, "So if he can't get it out, then why even bother?"

I said, "I know that, but he doesn't… wait he doesn't know how it works… If he can't get it himself, then it doesn't matter what I tell him… I will be fine." I looked at cotton and said, "Thank you cotton, thank you so much."

She sighed and nodded. She went back to sleep and I sighed in relief.

From the following day I started to report to Voldy every day after the school ended and since I told him the truth I was safe. I didn't have anything important to say like it was mostly usual days because the exams were here everyone was just studying and all that even the golden trio.
