NOTE: Technically, this could be described as a Chamber of Secrets musical, but it really is a bit more fanfic-esque in that it deals almost exclusively with the relationship between Tom Riddle and Ginny Weasley as it takes place in that book.
To the tune of Prologue
The scene is Dumbledore's office, now nearly fifty after the events of Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets. The new headmaster has decided to clear out Dumbledore's old artifacts by selling them. A SALESMAN is guiding several people around the office, showing them things.
SALESMAN And here…we have the sword of Godric Gryffindor, an extraordinarily valuable artifact, which some museums have offered to pay as much as 3 million galleons for. Anyone wishing, however, to make a higher offer is welcome to do so. And…next we have Dumbledore's old Phoenix Fawkes, only just found after a half a century spent away from humankind…hiatus aside, this fine beast has never quite been the same after his master died in 1997, but still a healthy phoenix and will be available at the price of five hundred galleons.
VOICE (from the back) I'll pay it!
The SALESMAN turns around, to find himself facing the 62-year-old HARRY POTTER.
SALESMAN Yes, Mr. Potter, I'll take that down straightaway. Will you--
POTTER I have cash.
He hands it to the SALESMAN
Now give me the bird.
SALESMAN Er…yes, of course, Mr. Potter…
POTTER takes the bird and sings to it softly
POTTER
Well, I see boy that we're here
Neither of us too much worse for the wear
I'm now a bent and crippled man
But you'll keep living, as only a phoenix can
Will you still sing when there is nothing but dead air?
SALESMAN (spoken) Moving on, then…a tattered old book. Some of you may recall the time when we were being terrorized by Lord Voldemort, a character who has baffled historians. We are told, ladies and gentlemen, that this is the very diary used by Voldemort when he was 17, not to mention one of his fabled seven horcruxes. Aurors have restored it and even managed to preserve some of the original magic, so that we will not need to kill someone to see how it may have worked. Perhaps we may frighten away the Dark Lord of everyone's nightmares with a little ink?
He pulls out a bottle of ink
Gentlemen!
He tips the bottle of ink over the diary. The organ crashes down as an evil wind blows through the spectators, snuffing out all the candles as the diary slowly closes and reopens to reveal completely blank and crisp white pages. The same wind blows the pages back and forth and slowly, a macabre green fog begins to float out of the diary, covering the scene and slowly changing it back to its grandeur of fifty years ago. The scene changes, and we see now that the diary is sitting in the middle of a transfiguration textbook which is being clutched tightly by an eleven-year-old GINNY Weasley.
The Weasleys Board the Hogwarts Express/Notice Me!
To the tune of Hannibal's Entrance/Think of Me
GINNY is sitting on the Hogwarts express when her mother, MOLLY Weasley, bursts on.
MOLLY (with much agitated waving of hands and trilling)
FRED and GEORGE lean their heads out of the train and start to sing a bawdy little tune
FRED and GEORGE
Oh, Hogwarts, prepare for a fright
PERCY, meanwhile, is turning up his nose at all this
PERCY
FRED and GEORGE
PERCY (simultaneous with above)
This moment is cut off, however, as GINNY ceases to pay attention to them and starts to sing sadly to herself about a certain dark-haired wizarding celebrity.
GINNY
Notice me, notice me…
FRED and GEORGE dart in to her compartment laughing
FRED and GEORGE
GINNY
Throws them out and closes the door. She then turns around and starts to hum to herself again as the same melancholy music starts up again.
Notice me…
She slowly drifts into a daydream where she imagines herself laughing and sitting very close to Harry. The dream drifts away, however, and she merely gets a little more melancholy.
And though I fear,
GINNY grows even more glummer as she stares at a picture of Harry from the Daily Prophet which she has clipped out
Notice me, notice me someday
A barely audible whisper comes from the DIARY in the transfiguration textbook, which GINNY is too absorbed to hear
DIARY
GINNY
Tattered Old Journal
To the tune of Angel of Music
The scene skips to GINNY's first night in Gryffindor tower. She is sitting in her dorm alone, and has just opened up her transfiguration book to discover the diary. She picks it up and is thoroughly frightened, for she thinks she hears a VOICE from it.
VOICE
GINNY
A ghostly bit of music follows this little name
I don't know any Tom Riddle
Maybe this book is enchanted
She pulls out her bottle of ink and looks at the diary
Tattered old journal,
VOICE
GINNY
She accidentally drips ink on it. Predictably, the ink goes into the pages and GINNY is shocked

The VOICE, now clearly coming from the diary, starts to sing slowly. GINNY jumps backwards in shock, but then crawls forward, since the book shows no intent to harm her.

GINNY, who looks like she might be faintly in a trance, picks up her quill.
The Student in the Diary
To the tune of The Phantom of the Opera
GINNY slowly starts to write in the diary, but we can hear all too well what she's thinking
GINNY
The ghostly voice of Tom RIDDLE comes from the diary as GINNY writes in it
RIDDLE
A few seconds later, RIDDLE has asked GINNY the year.
GINNY
RIDDLE
A CHORUS of ghostly voices from within the diary sound
CHORUS
It only takes a short while for GINNY to start to spill her secrets to the seemingly sympathetic boy in the diary.
RIDDLE
GINNY
RIDDLE (imperatively)
GINNY writes. It is a highly emotional experience as she starts to cry, which naturally makes the diary even more excited.

A Fragment of My Soul
To the tune of The Music of the Night
A few minutes later, it is time for dinner and GINNY has left the diary unattended. Within it, Tom RIDDLE is sitting in his own miniature Horcrux-created environment. Oddly, part of his chosen situation includes a massive pipe organ.
RIDDLE
This Miss Weasley
My designs are totally destructive
I must try to further my deception
Through her cries and her troubles I shall win back strength
Taunting, teasing, every bad occasion
Let my words and persuasion once more charm the weak
God, this chance at freedom's tantalizing
The book opens and ink starts to drip into RIDDLE's sanctum. He exalts in its flow, as if every drop brings him renewed ecstasy
She shall play the Slytherin Heir's role
You Don't Know This/So I've Been Defeated
To the tune of I Remember/Stranger Than You Dreamt It
GINNY is writing to RIDDLE again, this time talking about Harry Potter.
GINNY (this is what she's writing, but we can hear it, spoken)
RIDDLE (spoken)

Pregnant pause.

GINNY closes the book, and instantly we are transferred to RIDDLE's sanctum. He looks fit to kill.
RIDDLE (sung)
Lightning Bolt-Shaped Scar
To the tune of Magical Lasso
GINNY is showing us all how good an actor RIDDLE has to be to actually seem like he cares about her gushing by doing just that: gushing
GINNY
She pelts off to class, mercifully for RIDDLE, who is a little sick.
RIDDLE

Switch back to GINNY's room, where she's fallen asleep on the diary
RIDDLE
His hand reaches out of the diary and grasps her head, transferring himself into her. She sits up.
RIDDLE (through GINNY's mouth)
Poor Fool, She's So Naïve
To the tune of Poor Fool, He Makes Me Laugh
RIDDLE
Ginny Weasley, enough of this charade
To ballet music, he hops out and heads to the Chamber, where he stands before the statue. After a quick hiss of parseltongue, the statue's mouth opens and the scene fades to black.
Where Did I Go Last Night/Tom, I'm Frightened
To the tune of Why Have You Brought Me Here/Raoul, I've Been There
GINNY has just woken up from a very disturbing "dream" about having called a giant snake and then attacked roosters all night. She realizes her face is still on the open diary and pulls out her quill, which she then starts to write to RIDDLE with.

I Feed Her Such Nonsense
To the tune of I Gave You My Music
Back in his sanctum, RIDDLE sits back and smirks, satisfied with his work. It is clear that this is all going according to plan.
RIDDLE
She will find out with whom she is writing
He starts laughing hysterically as green mist slowly starts to leak out of the diary as its power begins to get stronger and stronger.
Duel Class/What's the Matter with You Lot?
To the tune of Masquerade/Why so Silent, Good Messieurs?

She runs off. From the U-bend, RIDDLE's voice comes.
RIDDLE
He laughs derangedly as Myrtle starts to sob and the pipeline floods, bringing the diary out onto the bathroom floor. At this moment, HARRY comes in and picks it up. A few minutes later, he has just started communicating with the diary.
HARRY
At that moment, he is sucked into the diary to experience the memory of Hagrid's capture. The music thunders.
Wishing I Had Never Known You, Tom
To the tune of Wishing You Were Somehow Here Again
GINNY, now having dumped the book in the toilet, runs back to her dorm and begins to cry.
GINNY
He was once a strong advisor
Wishing I had never known you, Tom
Wishing you had not been with me, Tom
Friendly words and inky joking
She starts to cry very hard
Now the truth's shone

RIDDLE is in his sanctum, very pleased about the business with Potter.

Heir of Slytherin
To the tune of Point of No Return
GINNY is struggling with RIDDLE as he forces her to write her farewell on the wall.
RIDDLE
I sit down here and I laugh as your poor heart breaks!
I'm the Heir of Slytherin,
I'm the Heir of Slytherin, the boss of evil
GINNY
I have come here,
You're the heir of Slytherin, but you're pathetic!
BOTH
RIDDLE
(mockingly) Say you'll do whatever I should ask you
GINNY screams as he takes over her body completely and finishes writing the inscription on the wall. Then, GINNY, still possessed by RIDDLE, sprints off. Within seconds, the message is discovered. There is a scream and DUMBLEDORE, MCGONAGALL, SNAPE and LOCKHART come running.
MCGONAGALL (spoken)

RIDDLE is dragging GINNY down to the chamber, laughing hysterically as her body flails about in his control.

Speaking of, we now shift into that very chamber. RIDDLE has finally exited the diary and is standing over GINNY.

As he fades, GINNY comes to. Eventually, all that's left is the fang and the blood-splattered diary. GINNY is now fully conscious and has started crying very hard. HARRY rushes over to comfort her.
GINNY
HARRY
GINNY
HARRY helps her up and guides her, still crying, up to DUMBLEDORE's office. DUMBLEDORE goes through the scene where he explains what happened to the Weasleys and comforts Ginny and Harry. Then, once he is alone, he turns to the Diary.
DUMBLEDORE
He addresses the diary as if it can hear him
Riddle…why do this?
He sets the diary down and walks out of the office. As soon as the lights are off, the last echo of RIDDLE's voice comes from the diary.
RIDDLE
Green mist floats out of the diary and shrouds the office. Barely visible in it is a ghostly looking
form of RIDDLE. His face looks around the office and gets an evil grin on its face as the mist is blown
away by the wind, taking him with it. The scene changes back to the sale at the beginning. The
sixty-two-year-old HARRY is still there, but now holding the newly purchased diary is his wife, GINNY.
She pulls out a quill and as the last notes of the organ sound, dabs a few spots of ink onto the now
magic-free pages.
Where's Ron?
We must find him,
We must fi-i-i-ind him
To help him and Harry
On the train!
Another year of toilet seats
Sent to our brother Percy
And tricks, practical jokes and cheats
Which he will take quite tersely!
The Weasley twins are coming
But we don't make our jokes from spite
With these twins, fun always wins!
Sad to return to find my brothers' fun
Still not removed by the effects of being mature!
Tomorrow, I shall take my post again
I can't take points off the hoolingans 'til then…
Soon we will own our own joke shop
The Weasleys' Wizard Wheezes
Til then, our jokes shall not stop.
There's no doubt…rules we will flout!
(simultaneous with below)
Once more to the castle of yore
We'll cast our mighty mayhem
Prefects should get lost before
Our jokes and pranks dismay them!
My brothers are acting like clods
It makes me quite embarrassed
Honestly, what are the odds
Of being stuck with both these schmucks?
Notice me…
Notice me, Harry
Why can't you perceive
That I would be
So overjoyed
Just to a glimpse receive.
You may think
I'm just a silly girl
But I am so melancholy…
I just hope that one day you might
Deign to notice me…
We played a prank on Percy!
We made him get so mad!
Oh yes, we played a prank on Percy…
Good heavens, will you morons give me PRIVACY?!!
Notice me, Harry
Why can't you perceive
That I would be
So overjoyed
Just to a glimpse receive.
You may think
I'm just a silly girl
But I am so melancholy…
I just hope that one day you might
Deign to notice me…
Yes, I will always fear
That in his high celebrity
He will never find a chance to stop and notice me.
I'm mad for his scar, his hair and eyes
Though it gets me some taunts which I despise…
You make my voice shake…
If you do not see that I'm here
I fear my heart might break.
Even if I cannot have your love
I swear that I will not be pissed
If I simply know that you
Know that I do exist!
Can it be…
Have I awoken?
Wondrous!
All these years
So many awful years
Lying hidden in this tattered book…
I do wonder how I left that scheming Malfoy crook.
Daydreams die
My dreams and fancies die
They give way to reality
But I hope that even Harry -
That he'll soon…
See (embellished with trills, etc)
Me!
Open…open…
Open me up!
Now, where on earth
Could this have come from?
Must have been left in there-
I only wish I knew the owner…
Who is it…(reads) Tom Riddle…
Look at the date! This is old!
Father was still back at Hogwarts
When this thing was sold.
(Flips open the book and her face falls)
Empty, I see
Too bad, how boring
Nothing that I can see
But it feels odd,
As if there's something
That isn't on the page…
Oh, dear me, what if it's cursed?
But I should at least start writing
On the page at first…
Old and careworn
Perhaps I can use you…
Who is this young girl?
This tattered old journal
Won't stay empty
It seems an odd journal.
What happened to the book…?
There's ink in here…
Didn't I drip-
No soul within it, though
Disappointing.
I feel frightened…
Little schoolgirl…
Let your quill mark me…
Little schoolgirl, help…
I am hidden within this old journal and I…
Am so lonely…
Merlin, who is it
In that book?
This makes me feel quite badly shook
But that journal was talking, it can't be mistook.
The journal was talking, it can't be mistook.
Riddle's my name,
It's written on there
Please do not be frightened…
I'm just a kid
Older than you, though
Do tell me, who are you?
You are Tom Riddle?
Oh, beg pardon
My name is just Ginny
Listen, this just is odd
How did you get into that journal?
Listen, my child, I shall answer
But now, my strength isn't right
My magic's starting to fail
I need you to write!
Tattered old journal,
Er…Tom Riddle,
I guess I could write you…
Fret no more now
It seems we both need friends…
I am your tattered old journal
Write in your tattered old journal…
I am your tattered old journal…
Write in your tattered old journal….
No ink or feather quill
Will leave a stain
It seems friendly, but still…
I see no brain.
The chance of it being bad
Seems to be slim…
This Student in the diary needs me…
And I need him.
Write quicker, give me strength
Pour out your ink
Tell me whatever your
Dear brain does think.
Fill every page with ink
Right to the brim!
The Student in the diary needs you
And you need him!
It's 1992…
Well, it appears
That I have been asleep
For fifty years.
Those years without a friend
Have been so grim.
The student in the diary needs you
And you need him!
She needs…this student called Tom Riddle
She feeds…the student called Tom Riddle!
Across this great expanse,
You touch my heart.
To help your circumstance,
Where should I start?
In trusting me, you've gone
Out on a limb
The Student in the diary has you…
And you have him!
Write, my dear little Ginny…
I need…the student called Tom Riddle…
WRITE!
Ahhhh….
Write…
Ahhhhhh….
Write to me…
Ahhhhh….
Write, my dear Ginny Weasley…
Ahhhh!
Ahhhh!
Ahhhh!
WRITE TO ME!
AHHHHH!
I have someone
Who can give me the strength I need
Who can give me a form which can then open the chamber…
Chamber…
For her sorrow I feel such greed
Since the moment she dripped in that ink, she has needed me with her, a friend she can trust…in this di'ry, this di'ry…
But to her I must be quite seductive
In good time, though, she will
Be partner to my evil…
By being good in her naïve perception
By this schoolyear's end,
I'll have been her only friend
But her lifeforce will be something that I stole
And used to feed this fragment of my soul
Through her pain I shall live and kill once more
Through her cries, ink shall fill my every pore…
It's too bad that this girl is such a bore….
I shall wrestle from her with persuasion
Her soul shall distort
As she writes Lord Voldemort
I shall sap her brain of strength, which is my goal
It's fuel for this fragment of my soul
Oh, Merlin let this endeavor succeed!
Let me use her to cause my killing spree!
Let me do the worst with Miss Ginny…
I already feel my power rising…
She must be my source
For Slytherin's evil force
That can only be, though, if I do console
This girl who feeds the fragment of my soul
She'll die for this fragment of…my…soul!
And of course, Harry's famous for defeating You-Know-Who…
Beg pardon? I'm afraid I don't know who.
Oh, well…er…nobody likes to mention his name, but he's the most famous Dark Wizard ever. I guess I can write it down though. It was…
Yes?
Lord Voldemort.
I…see. And how did he do it?
You don't know this, do you Tom?
He was just a baby when, well, he came.
He cast curses which would kill
And they should have, but Harry still
Was alive when the curse was done.
And You-know-who was defeated…
People say that he's now dead…
Thank you, Ginny. If I could have some time alone?
DAMN IT!
My older self has been beaten!
This Harry Potter…he is my new target to kill!
CURSE IT!
After this little meeting…
I must destroy this Harry Potter, that is my will!
KILL HIM!
CURSE HIM!
So, I've been defeated
Well, I have to say that this
Is not a good surprise.
This little Weasley is innocent,
But in my eyes
She is guilty
In my eyes
In my eyes, she must die.
But I'll gain her love,
She'll learn to love, to trust the boy inside the journal
This…future dark wizard
Who's dark and mean, but in her eyes
Is a great prize
In her eyes, in her eyes…thanks, Ginny…
Now, I need more ink!
This young boy whom she lusts after must not stay alive!
Like pickled toads are his two eyes
His messy hair is so pretty it's beyond words
I am so nuts about Harry
Even if he has that odd lightning bolt-shaped scar…
Sometimes I am skeptical
Whether being her would bring me much joy…
Oh, I wish she'd hold her tongue
And stop talking about that Potter boy…
Deathday bash…
Why on earth would you
Celebrate the day
That your life was through?
Harry, it
Seems that you at least
Could've said that we'd
Come after the feast!
Look, I know, it makes me sick
But I felt so bad for Nick
Still, it could be kind of fun
Deathday parties we should shun…
Look, I know it ain't convenient
Staying there til the feast ends
Passing up the pot roast
To be with a ghost…
Look, I know
You'd rather have a flu shot
But I do not
Want to disappoint my friends!
Welcome friends, have some rotted fish!
Make yourselves at home, oh, the mould's delish!
And the weeping widow came down from Kent
Visited, she did, (looks around) wonder where she went…
Well, be comfy, go on and sit
Please excuse me for a bit…
Well, Harry, I hope that you're happy
This food smells like products of waste!
And it's boring at that
(wrinkles his nose) Smells like someone shat!
Ron, come on!
It should be quite apparent,
They're transparent
So the rot makes the food taste!
Oh, get away, it's Moaning Myrtle
Her griping really gets to me
Who's she?
I thought you knew
She haunts the girls' loo.
It's the truth
No one likes her crying
When they're trying
Just to take a simple pee!
Heard you talking bad 'bout Myrtle…
I should tell her what you said.
Oh, Peeves, don't, I just bet
That she'll get upset!
I don't mind
Her whimpering and moaning
Or her groaning about living
Be forgiving, don't alert her
It'll hurt her, I don't want to.
And I shan't do
What you're asking
I am basking
In your sorrow for the dead!
Don't tell her!
I should tell Myrtle…
Oh, Peeves, have mercy, don't tell her!
Why should I not, though?
Please take some pity!
I really do not want her to cry!
Shouldn't have been rude!
I'll get her…
Don't try to plead
I will not listen.
I'll get her…
She's over there-
Oh, Peeves, don't do it.
Besides that, you shouldn't have spied.
And what I should do only I decide!
(shouts across) Myrtle, get your butt up here!
These second year students said some stuff about you!
I think you might be interested…
What is it?
Oh, Myrtle dear…
Don't patronize me,
What is it?!
Oh, we just said-
I'll bet you're saying
How ugly I was looking tonight!
And was I saying that?
Of course not!
As if I would!
You didn't say that?
Of course not!
They're telling lies…
I know I'm ugly,
You're thinking that too, isn't that right?
You're so pimply, you're not a pretty sight!
Oh, dear…I think that was just a nightmare.
Come on, Harry, do we have to remain tonight?
I should think we'd have much less fun if we went back up to the feast.
What an utterly fun turnout
So many ghosts I've never seen,
I hope there are no stunts
By the headless hunt…
How nice to see you, Nick!
I trust that flap of skin is making your head stick?
I think Nick is frightening.
I bet he asked
You to say that as a friend's task.
Come on, let's go.
Yes, I think that would be perfect!
This is dull, this is dull.
Nick's giving his speech.
We are leaving…now.
Tear…rip…kill…
(sung) So, so hungry, for so many years…
I need some food, I am so anxious to eat
Did you hear that voice, it's saying how it
Needed something to eat and it is so hungry.
About this voice you should be rather discreet.
See, hearing a voice is not a good sign anywhere.
And if you can hear it and not us,
That makes the two of us a bit…well…scared.
Look there!
What happened now?
It's Mrs. Norris! Look up there!
Oh, bloody hell.
I know what caused this…the voice I was hearing!
Oh, Harry, don't be stupid.
My kitty!
How could you do this?
Don't think we're wanted.
This isn't right!
This isn't proper!
Don't think we're needed.
My kitty!
This isn't right!
(Looks at HARRY) You saw my letter!
My kitty!
I did nothing.
Don't lie about it!
I should have known that you would try this after my note.
Now Dumbledore will throw you out!
It's useless trying to resist me!
I'm on my innocence insisting!
You are a liar!
You thus insult the honour of your school caretaker?
Mrs. Norris!
Help, here!
What happened here?
Oh, God, it's the cat!
There's blood on the wall!
Just look at that!
Why was Potter here in this hall?
He has destroyed her!
I didn't touch the cat!
The rotter killed her!
Please, Professor, you must listen…
I don't trust him…
My cat was murdered!
My cat was damaged!
My cat is dead, now!
The Slytherins now have their heir…
Why were they here?
Nobody's caring!
Nobody's helping!
Professor, listen, please. Please don't ignore me!
It wasn't Harry, I assert….
Alert!
I want him hurt!
Oh, Tom, I'm frightened…
What happened now?
I was so scared, they say that the caretaker's cat died
But Tom, it was just petrified…
Ginny Weasley, why should you be afraid?
You really must
See that cat's just
Somebody's pet…
Can you believe you should grieve at this time?
Whether it's bad you can't see yet.
This odd assault
Is no one's fault
At the moment.
This could not be some dark, evil design
Miss Ginny Weasley, you're fine…
They mentioned Slytherin's heir…
Ginny Weasley, you mustn't be so scared
It's just a name
There'll be no blame for this attack.
We have seen the words of the heir of Salazar…
Those at the crime scene think it could be that Potter…
Think of the eyes
Of your idol, Potter
Is this the heir of Salazar…?
The school's in trouble
We need precautions…
Filch is crazy, don't fear that hack!
The trouble once again has come upon us.
Is this Heir a person or monster?
Person or monster…?
Harry Potter is the one!
Ginny Weasley, your fear has got no ground.
When it came, we saw nothing.
Was it dark, or someone's prank?
Heaven help us, if we stall.
Things will improve
The school will move
Once more, smoothly.
Horror! Killings! Messages in blood!
This suspicion is being ignored rudely.
Hurt, pain, messages in blood are troublesome occurrences!
Much tightened precautions for the whole year…
Fear or resistance? Which should we use?
If you're scared, though, you must soon grow a spine!
Miss Ginny Weasley, you're fine!
Oh, fools, to have flouted my warnings!
Now, for the school's sake…
Surely, we must act.
Surely more will hurt…
Surely there'll be further scenes - worse than this!
Think, before my warnings are discounted!
I don't think these warnings are discounted.
These vague suspicions are discounted.
No vague suspicions are discounted!
We must grieve to believe who deceived us grievously
Simply based on their ruddy fame!
Nip it in the bud, for Potter's shedding blood!
Although he pleads he's not, redhanded he's been caught!
To this fear our work amounted!
To this the school's amounted!
Destroyed, discounted, our worst fears have now remounted.
He'd not have got this far if he had no such scar!
But if he's popular and other folks are sure
He's not the sort of student who would kill his peers,
Well, then we must acquit him!
This must be finished!
This must be finished!
This is a fight we must be strong to fight!
And in the school we must strive for what's right.
For, since the curse is here in Hogwarts…
But if the curse is here in Hogwarts…
Ginny Weasley, now sleep and do not fear…
You just stay calm
Because dear Tom
Will protect you!
The hell that falls to mess up any old Professor!
Terrible inscriptions, hell of all descriptions!
Still, the biggest fool would fight to help this school
In search of Slytherin's heir!
And we fear the outcome…
Someone is enchanted, someone has been killing…
You are spineless!
We must once again…
Fight properly to aid evil's decline!
Miss Ginny Weasley…you're fine!
I'm…fine!
They say that a soul within a body is in hell
That saying, it is just not true
That saying, it is full of poo!
This Ginny Weasley is so measley!
Well, well, well…
I fit quite oddly in her body…
Well, well, well!
It's only me of whom you should be really afraid.
Poor fool, she's so naïve.
Mwuahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha
The gullibility of her I can't believe!
Poor fool, she has no clue
Hoohoohoohoohoo! Hoohohohohohohohohohohoohoohoohoohoohoohoohoo!
She won't know the truth that her whole life is through!
Where did I go last night?
Well, how would I know?
I don't recall.
You seem scared.
I don't know what occurred…
I think you're tired.
And worst of all…
Don't get so frightened…
That there's scarlet paint right down my chest…
Ginny, you had a nightmare…
I need help from this diary
To that I will attest!
The paint could be a prank
By your brothers…there is no reason to be frightened!
Merlin, I feel so sick…
Did I get sleep?
You've slept all night…
My eyes, they fight to close…
You're drowsy, like the rest…
In paint I'm steeped!
You know I'm right…
You/I must believe my/his words
Nothing's been grim!
The student in the diary is here
If you need him.
There is no reason to be so scared!
Tom, I'm frightened
And right now I just need a friend
I just need someone whom I can confide and cry to
Cry to…
Tom, I'm so scared
Will this nightmarish feeling end?
Can I ever feel like my old self? It would be such a help,
Just to know I'm okay, but I'm frightened…
Frightened…
I don't see how I could have left my bed last night,
Yet I woke here upon my writing desk
There's no explanation for why I'm here
I feel scared, and I know I needn't fear.
You are scared, but there's no point to it, that's clear!
Yet, in my dream
I killed chickens
Til the sun
Rose in the sky
And the worst part:
It was fun!
Ginny…Ginny…Ginny…
No more talk of nightmares
Forget this night of pain
You're sane, none will upbraid you
Your book is here to aid you…
Birds' blood is not that stain
You're sane, I won't desert you
Nobody here can hurt you…
No one ever understood me, Tom.
Say you like it when I use your journal
Tell me there is no real need for fear
That's all I want to hear.
Come, let's not be silly
I am just the past.
You are alive and kickin'
You didn't kill a chicken.
All I want is safety
A school with no more fear
And you to say good night to
To be able to write to.
Then say you'll do whatever I should ask you
Let me aid you in your friendlessness
Say you need me with you as your journal
Let your loyalty not disappear
Ginny, that's all I want to hear.
Say you are my friend for now and always
No one ever understood me, Tom.
Share each word with me, each thought, each secret
Say you need me…
That is clear…
"We're friends…."
That's all I want to hear.
Say your friendship with me is too dear…
"We're friends," that's all I want to hear.
I must go!
I have to eat some food.
I'll be back, Tom.
Alright, I'll miss you.
Let me learn about you,
When I get back from class.
Are you ready to speak yet?
Yes, I'll tell you a secret.
I feed her such nonsense
And she trusts me so
And now, my evil lurking
Within her's really working.
She will get suspicious, but of what of that, though?
She'll know…she'll know…
She will see the face of Voldemort…
She will see the strength of all my evil…
She might scream and cry, but I don't care!
She will fall dead to Slyth'rin's heir!
Well, this class should really be useful.
Protection against the heir.
This seems it's worth a shot
If the teacher's not-
Bloody hell.
Shut up, he's a good a teacher.
Please beseech her to shut up, 'cause she's wrong there!
Dueling class!
Students dueling en masse!
Dueling class! Cast a curse and your foe will learn to block it!
Dueling class!
If a student should harass…
Dueling class will teach them that they need the spells to talk it.
Hello, kids, hello, friends
Be my guest 'til this ends
Get your wands, raise 'em high
Not a fear, none will die.
Duels! Take your turn, start a fight
In the magical sense, and go protect the school!
Should've mentioned your name
He will aid as I teach
Too bad he's out of reach…
Duels! Take a hit, cast a spell
Til you've sprouted a leek in your ear
And then another duel!
Dueling class! Curses flying to and fro…
Dueling class! Use your spells, do not let your foe surprise you!
Dueling class! Step on up and have a go!
Dueling class! Have a go at the people who despise you!
Dueling class! Keeping safe and reaping fun
Dueling class! You can stop any curse that they through at you!
Dueling class! Simple spells, pimples, for one…
Dueling class! Go and fight anyone who would combat you!
What a guy!
What a git!
Him and Snape,
Well, that's it…
The two teachers I hate
This is a sorry state.
Let's hope it's better than we think.
Lockhart…
What a fool!
Ron is right.
This is interesting…
But now my spirits sink…
Enough crap.
What was that?
I said naught.
Well, let's start. Shall we first demonstrate?
I think that would be great.
Then let us start it.
Kick his ass!
I shall.
Let's have fun.
Let's have pain.
Notice, kids, how we start
This fight in dueling class!
Notice me…just turn around, Harry.
See that I am here! Just turn around….
Look at how Snape looks!
Lockhart should feel fear…
I'm at your side…
Let's see this fight.
Oh, when will I be spied?
Snape's full of spite.
He looks like he could really kill.
What does Lockhart think he's doing?
Can't you see me?
Isn't he scared?
Please just turn…
I can only it's….
I'm here….
Dumb of him to stand so still/Why is he standing so still?
Dueling class! Taught by Lockhart, well, alas…
Dueling class! Now we must try to do this without learning.
Dueling class! Firing off remarks so crass!
Dueling class! I shall try to get Potter's temper burning…
Dueling class! Potter's life I will discard!
Dueling class! Now, let's see…what would be a mean idea?
Dueling class! This'll hit the bastard hard…
Dueling class! Potter, you can block this: Serpensortia!
What's the matter with you lot?
I just told the snake to leave Justin be!
Is that wrong, what's with you lot?
I just saved a fellow student!
Harry, perhaps we should leave.
This doesn't look good.
We should go after that show, you just made some grave mistakes
It doesn't look good for you to start speaking tongues of snakes.
Well, what is the point?
Was it wrong to say?
Terrible!
I feel such despair
They all think Harry
Is Slytherin's heir!
That's ridiculous.
Of all the mistakes…
Can the little prat
Even talk to snakes?
Wait, how did you know
He could?
Whoops, I didn't think he would.
Oh, Tom, you're making me suspicious
Sometimes I wonder about you.
It seems you know too much
On the heir and such
Why is that?
I thought that you were nifty,
But seems fifty
Years ago this happened too!
Oh, Ginny,
You are being silly!
You think I'm Heir to Salazar?
That is an absurd claim!
You knew his first name!
I read it!
See, any proper student
Knows its prudent
To know who his founders are!
WHAT, Tom?!
What is it not?
You were in Slytherin house, then?
Yes, what's your point?
Don't you sweet-talk me!
I know your house tells all the lies!
Now, Ginny, listen…
You have used me!
You're really wrong!
You bastard, Riddle, you've used me!
You have no proof! That claim is hurtful!
I dream each time the heir petrifies!
I hope that cuts your scheme down to size!
Well…you're behaving strangely…
Nothing you can say, no lies, will ever change me!
I will not play the stooge's role in your dark plot!
Come on, Ginny, you don't know what you're saying!
Be calmer, please!
Any foolish person sees…
You're behind this….
That attention you're not paying.
You're the one behind this! Slytherin's heir!
You monster!
I'm not the heir!
You evil creature!
You monster!
You think I'd lie?
This isn't my fault!
I never caused a single attack!
Now, Ginny, surely…
You're a hack!
You have no proof!
I have my nightmares!
You're a hack!
You must calm down
And listen to me.
I will not listen to your deceit!
Ginny, Ginny, you don't have to. I can't make you,
(spoken) but…
(sung) You may want to listen up.
I have some things about me you might want to know.
I caught the heir in my fifth year and I turned him in to Dumbledore at once.
So I'm blameless, as you see. That is obvious to any stupid dunce.
I may seem suspicious, but I can promise you I'm not a villain, though.
You're really not convincing.
No doubt you think you're smart
It's true, you're persuasive,
But I know if I had caught the heir
I would not have these dreams
You must have framed someone else
To help yourself through lying
Through lying…
I have been so blind, and yet your evil was terribly well concealed.
You have had your chance to make me your willing dupe.
Don't try to persuade me!
I have played your game, but now your book shall be eternally sealed.
I'm not so gullible, now I'll throw you for a loop!
I'll make certain you're never found
I'll make certain you can't exist
And you don't make a sound!
Your evil plot is in the soup!
Ginny!
I do not hear
Don't try to talk!
Listen, Ginny…
This nightmare's up!
Ginny, believe me, I never murdered a single kid!
I'm on the light side!
Just shut up!
But you are wrong…
Instead of talking, just shut up!
But this is wrong…
Don't make excuses!
I will not come back on your side!
Ginny, believe me, I killed no one at all
I have heard that crap and now your scheme will fall!
Please don't ignore my frantic call!
You're the one behind this! Riddle! This is all your doing!
That's not the truth, Ginny Weasley!
This is your undoing!
You're simply wrong about my guilt
There's no convincing case you've built.
Tattered old journal,
Stop your chatter! Here is where you fall!
Hear my pleading, stop your fury!
At last your power has been beat
Your plan at last has met defeat
This is mad, I'm not your man!
Stop your talking, stop your lying!
If you destroy me, you are mad!
Say your prayers, dark student from hell!
Please don't…
If you are gone, no one will die.
Ginny, I beg you, do not do this.
This will seal your fate!
If he were here, I swear I would strike that
Rat! I thought him a friend
But if I hadn't dumped him, the scares would not end.
Who I once used to trust, I now hate
I once thought that the bastard was great
I know now for a fact that he's just second rate.
I know for a fact that he's just second rate…
Yet now I know he is nothing but a book.
Yet what a book, it can take somebody's soul!
After that kind of crap, I wonder what to do
I have betrayed the boy whom I confided in
It seems to me that he was heir to Slytherin
He killed and knew no guilt, he murdered without thought
I wish that he were gone and yet, I know he's not
Oh, God, if he is found
What hell will go around
To help his twisted actions?
Ginny, Ginny,
You think this fight is won
But evil's work
Is never done
I'll get vengeance!
(spoken) So it is to be war between us, but this time, my dear girl, you are not safe from the Heir!
No ink or feather quill
Will leave a stain
It seems friendly, but still…
I see no brain…
I was frightened and I didn't think him evil
Tom Riddle promised me that he was only my tattered old journal…
Tom Riddle promised me..
Tom Riddle promised me…
In him I confided…
But now that I see his power
No more, I've decided.
Wishing you were gone for good
Why did you start
Touching my heart
Making me understood?
Knowing I'd have made real friends
I sit and grieve
For being naïve
Enough to meet your ends.
Crocodile's grieving…
Was what you were throwing at me
In your dark deceiving.
And I'm alone
Why did you have to lie?
Knowing you're such a bad guy.
But, with the dawn
You will be gone
I hope in hell you fry!
No more diary, no more confidante
No more book which an evil spirit haunts…
I will stop being shy…
For Tom, it's goodbye!
Potter, I see
Is just as stupid as his stalker, Ginny.
Now, how to proceed
With my plotting
How can I deceive him?
Potter, come back
I so desire
To learn how you survived…
Too long I've sat here and rotted
Just a Horcrux with no point…
Now I am back here at Hogwarts
(Wonderful!)
To attack the joint!
Tattered old journal, show your power, make yourself his journal!
Darkness is this old journal…
Shut up!
You don't have Harry…leave him!
Your lies are wasted!
Now I will not leave you alone!
Bravo, Ginny, such defiant words!
More tricks, Tom?
Let's see, Ginny, how strong you now are!
Not given up yet? More violence!
That's right, that's right, Ginny, delude yourself further!
You can't make me kill my classmates!
You fool, you fool, Ginny. I'm as implacable as death!
That's right, that's right, Ginny! Keep fighting! Keep fighting!
Come now, now it'll be war on you AND Potter!
For the use of another's diary
You now lose your only
And your one identity…
Now, let's take you to my lair
There to surrender your soul…
You seem to think that you can resist…
But you cannot, you'll play this role!
When we met, you thought that I was a harmless little book
It takes not much of a brain to see that you were mistook.
Furtively, I lurked and worked, frightening all with my snake
Making every muggle-born that lives right here within Hogwarts shake
You had dreams, I thought that they would be a dead giveaway
But you let me go on, though, til I had no need to slay.
Poor girl, you have got no chance!
Now we go to the chamber, wherein you shall die
Too bad you didn't catch me in my lie!
No way that I will let you win this fight!
Riddle…
You are taking this fight to the point where it could get rough!
You'll be murdered
Because of your naïve mistakes
Because of all of those words which you spilled to a stranger…
Stranger…
In your heart you already are lost to me,
You are defenseless, and utterly lost to me
Now you are here with me, your soul escapes
You are dying…
Yes, dying…
I hope you noticed
My patience for your cries is wearing thin.
I'm the one who petrified
Your friends and housemates…
Your soul is fuelling my hate and sin!
What foolishness to trust a book
At whose brain you can't get a look.
What fool would willingly endure you?
Once I have stolen your life, I'll begin
To work the will of Slytherin.
You have taught me
Just how evil a boy can be
Just how evil a person can act when they want to.
Damn you!
Knowing that I will not be free
In my mind, I already am peaceful, except that I hate you
And wish you were murdered. So now I can promise you,
I'm not afraid that I'm dying…
I'm dying…
I'm not the wimp you seem to think I am!
You're a parasitic turd! I hope you know that!
You're really such a jerk, not worth a damn!
So I can die, but know this, Tom
I'm not afraid of your duress
You're wrong if you think you impress me!
I'm/You're the Heir of Slytherin!
I'm Voldemort too!
I took your trust and took you for a spin!
Now serve the will of Slytherin!
Let me aid you in your friendlessness
Say you need me with you as your journal
Let your loyalty not disappear
Ginny, that's all I want to…
What is it, what's happened? Oh, Merlin! Merlin!
The school's ruined, Albus, ruined!
Merlin…who could have done this?
You! Go down there and save Miss Weasley! Didn't you say last night that you knew exactly where the entrance to the Chamber was?
Now come on, Ron, or we'll be too late!
Down once more to the chamber built by Slytherin
Down we climb to the greatest pureblood's shrine!
Down that path Salazar himself has carved!
Why, you ask did I choose to kill wizards whose veins run with mud?
Because of the suffering brought on by those who possess their filthy blood!
Track down the Slytherin who's caused these crimes!
Shunned and feared by all my peers
Held in awe by the dark side
Free from all my greatest fears,
Finally I have some pride!
Ginny, Ginny,
Die! Die!
Track down the Slytherin who's caused these crimes
Track down the villain of these horrid times
Too long he's killed our friends, and for their sake
The last scion of, last scion of, last scion of Salazar will die…
Beneath the lake!
It's here! The Chamber of the Secrets!
Its here, the Chamber of the Secrets!
So you've won at last, you've amassed such death!
So now will it be me who will breath her last breath?
That fate, which allowed you to live in comfort
Has also denied me the chance to know love
Your folks, such blood traitors, and yet full of joy!
While I, the best of wizards who existed
On my loneliness cruel fate insisted!
You have known no strife,
Now it shall destroy your life!
And your skeleton shall lie within this room…
That chance of death holds no terror for me now…
Nor does the hell of this evil place's gloom….
Well, I think, my dear, Potter's our guest.
Potter, this is indeed quite a special time for me.
I'd rather hoped that you'd show up.
And now, you've come to save your dear fangirl, Miss Weasley!
Riddle! I am glad to see you, Riddle! Now, help me save her.
You mean you haven't figured this out?
I've figured what out?
The chamber! Miss Ginny opened the chamber!
Under my power…she opened it, of that there's no doubt!
Ginny, Ginny…how'd it happen?
I'll explain thus:
But let's see how great your power really is now that you
Are stuck with Voldemort!
Tell me, how did you escape
When I first attacked on that night you should have died?
The longer that you talk, the longer that you live!
You were beat all because
My mum sacrificed herself.
And now you are a wreck!
You are barely alive!
Thus is the fate of the heir of Slytherin!
Well, I see how you fought off my design.
Let's match…your power up with mine!
Somebody help me…please, just help me…
(sung) I did so much to help…
And all for nothing!
Well, you evil git, you rotten slime…
I thought you good, but now those thoughts are over.
Too late for crying out,
You already have stuck your nose in…
I will stop you or my life is over!
I'm the one who killed your folks, an orphaned half-blood!
You are the fourth founder's most evil kin!
I am the greatest founder's next of kin!
So, see your error and your pain?
Lord Voldemort has won this fight!
Your boasts and taunting do not scare me!
I'm the heir of Slytherin…
For pity's sake, Ginny, fight him!
The lord of evil…
Don't let your life give way to this git…
You came to this chamber, you'll die herein!
I will still fight to save you!
I am the Heir of Slytherin!
You deceived me! I trusted you wrongly!
You try my patience, now you die!
You evil bastard, Voldemort…your reign of terror is through
If I die from this ordeal, I will take you too!
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!
Oh, Harry, I'm so sorry and so scared
To open up that book I'd not have dared
He preyed and sapped my strength, yes, every bit
The student in the diary was just an evil git!
Come on - forget it - forget all of this
We'll leave now - forget this ordeal
Come on, this has to stop now.
I know the abuse that you took
At the hands of Lord Voldemort's book.
Come…come now…
Expelled! I'll be expelled from here!
Voldemort…beaten once again, in short
Voldemort…his old self has now been lost to the ages…
Evil has lost one more chance for power
Lovelessness has made me what I am
Now I've served as heir to my ancestor
As the heir I didn't play my role…
It's foiled now, this fragment of my soul…
