It was a dark time in the wizarding world. Voldemort terrorized every family, Dementor and Inferi attacks, and random murders preformed by Death Eaters, who tried to recruit pure blood wizards and witches.
Ginny Weasley, who was 18, was sitting at home, in her room reading a spell book. She had been catching up on her missed education ever since Hogwarts closed down. Sudenly there was a puff of smoke and a hooded figure was standing in her room, wand pointing at her heart. Ginny tried to scream, but nothing came out. Then everything went black.
When she woke up, her hands were bound, and she was lying on a cold stone floor. Groggily she satup. She was in a dark room, with stone walls, and only a thin, stubby candle gave light from a corner. Suddenly Ginny thought of something. If her captor was very stupid, she still had her wand. Since her hands were bound in front of her, she awkwardly reached for her pocket.
"Damn!" Ginny muttered as she felt only air. But then, getting an idea, she walked back to where she had woken up. Sure enough, in the dim light of the candle, there lay her wand. Picking it up, she slit her bindings and lit the end of her wand. She spotted a heavy metal door at one end. Pointing her wand at it, she waited.
Aftre about an hour, it swung open, and that hooded figure stood there again. But Ginny was ready. She had run the plan over in her mind a dozen times.
"Stupefy!" she cried. Caught off guard, the hooded person crumpled. Smiling to herself, Ginny ran through the open door. Now she was in a beautiful hallway, quite unlike her prison. A thick, elaborate rug ran the length of it, and tapestries lined the walls, along with with large windows and portraits. But it was the portraits that grabbed her attention...
Moving closer to the nearest one, she gasped. It portrayed a handsome youth of about nineteen, with a handsome, pale pointed face, and sleek blond hair. It was Draco Malfoy.
Suddenly Ginny understood. This was a plot, and she was the victim, and she was sure she played an important role. After all, why would they kidnap her? She wasn't sure who "they" were, but now Ginny realized that she had probably stunned a Death Eater. Suddenly she heard footsteps coming her way. Gripping her wand tightly, Ginny waited.
Three hooded figures ran down the hall. Gathering her courage, Ginny stepped out of the shadows. Taken by surprise, they stepped back. Ginny smiled.
"Good evening," she said. "I'm sure you weren't expecting me to be here." Smiling again, Ginny tossed her hair. The flaming red mane gleamed. Ginny was proud of her heritage. Suddenly she raised her wand. "Impedimenta!" she cried, aiming at the nearest person. This unleashed a full-fledged battle. Curses and jinxes were hurled, but soon more Death Eaters joined the fight, but Ginny did not give up. After all, she had been taught by Harry Potter.
Stunning several more masked figures, Ginny actually started to enjoy herself. After all, she had been stuck inside for a long time, learning out of books. This was first hand experience!
But suddenly Ginny felt herself freeze. She had been hit by an Impediment Jinx. Smiling, a Death Eater walked towards her. Even through his hood, she recognized Bellatrix Lestrange.
"Very good, little girl." Bellatrix began. "But I'm afraid it was simply not good enough. Oh no, we won't kill you. We have other plans for you, and you're simply no good to us dead," Laughing, Bellatrix moved away, before turning around and hitting the frozen Ginny with a Stunning spell. Then Ginny lost consciousness.
