Harry ran into the chamber and then fell down on the floor next to Ginny. “Ginny, please don’t be dead! Wake up, wake up!” he said frantically. The ginger girl was laying silently on the floor with skin as pale as ice. Unnaturally pale, even. “th-there’s a basilisk, the snake could eat us at any moment! Please! If you hear me, please wake up Ginny!” he said even though he knew it was to no use. He knew she couldn’t hear him. Tears ran down his face as he started violently shaking her.
