Ginny sat in the Gryffindor common room, studying for Professor Mcgonagall's class. She was exhausted and needed a break. She decided to get up and walk around the campus. She threw on her sweater and scarf. She headed out and began to walk. Nowhere specific. She could see her breath like puffs of steam. Before she could admire her breath, she saw two boys cornering someone. The boys seemed like they were from Ravenclaw and Gryffindor. Blonde hair shown in between them. Immediately, Ginny knew who was being cornered, Luna. Draco came running up behind her. The older boy had started being more protective ever since he started dating Harry.
"Ginny," He was out of breath, "Don't use magic, someone will catch you and give you detention." Ginny nodded. She understood she couldn't take that chance. She hears one of the boys say, "Loony! Listen to me." That's Ginny's breaking point. She marches over and rolls up her sleeves. Luna looks over the boys' shoulders and sees Ginny. Ginny stops in front of both of them.
"Let her go." Ginny growls. They smirk and say, "What'll you do?" They grab Luna and lift her off the ground. She struggles, trying to get out their grasp. They drop Luna. That's the last straw. Ginny punches the Gryffindor. He stumbles back, holding his mouth. The Ravenclaw punches Ginny in the side of the face. She kicks his stomach. She tries to punch the Gryffindor again, but hits the wall behind them. The Gryffindor kicks Ginny in her side. She bends over in pain and shoots back up. She punches the Ravenclaw in the nose. She misses the Gryffindor again and hits the wall with her other hand. She punches the Gryffindor in the side of his face. They back away, groaning in pain. Ginny wipes the blood off her face and immediately runs to Luna. She finds her rubbing her head in pain. Ginny kneels down beside and sits against the wall. The campus is dark except for a few lights from windows. The cold air hits her fresh wounds. She puts her hand on Luna's shoulder and asks, "Are you okay?" Luna smiles weakly and replies,
"Yes. I mean, it's because of you." Luna then notices the blood on Ginny's hands and face. She reaches out to touch Ginny's knuckles.
"Oh my god. I-I am so sorry. If it wasn't for me. And you wouldn't be bleeding and I'm so, so sorry. I mean, they were jerks. But, it's all my fault. I didn't mean to and-" Luna stops mid sentence realizing she was rambling. Ginny is smiling fondly at her. Luna smiles back.
