Ginny's Secret

It has been three years since she graduated from Hogwarts. Her parents were very proud of her. She had did exceptionally well on her OWLS and NEWTS and could get a job anywhere she chose. But Ginny had decided to go out in the muggle world to go to one of their universities for a while. She needed a change, to go to a place where she wouldn't have to hear congratulations for defeating Voldermort. But of course he wasn't defeated and only she knew that. After applying to a lot of schools she chose one that didn't ask too many questions about her previous schooling and wished for everyone to go to school so they accepted anyone. This schools was in Alaska, Anchoarage to be extact. And no she didn't live in an igloo but a rather really confortable single person dorm suite. She liked Anchorage. Everyone was really nice and didn't ask too many questions. Now she didn't detest muggles like Voldermort did but merely tolerated them.

Ginny decided to study psychology. It interested her to find out what made people who they were. And then break them down. So far Ginny was top in her class and was generally all her teacher's favourite.

She visited Voldermort every weekend. In Ron's sixth year Voldermort had taught her how to hide her magic use from the Ministry of Magic. So since she could practice magic even during the hols she got better and stronger. She even managed to surpass Hermione! Which surprised everyone considering they thought her most strongest point was potion making.

It was the day after Ginny had graduated. All her family had come to see her, even Harry and Hermione.

"Well little sister what are you going to do now," Percy asked Ginny as he was preparing to take her stuff to the other flying car.

"The same thing I do everyday,Percy. Try to take over the world."

Percy laughed a loud,joyfilled laugh. "Oh Ginny," he said between breaths.

"Yes I know, funny aren't I?" Percy was heading out the door so he didn't see the cross look she had on her face. She was still furious with her family for their part in Voldermort's demise. Especially at Ron who was friends with the boy who lived. One of these day's she was going to have a row with him and she would show him. Of course he would never hit her but that didn't mean she couldn't give one.

"Alright now. Everything's packed Ginny old girl. Let's get going, the weather's perfect for driving," Ginny's father, Arthur Weasley said as he came from the car, soaking wet from the rainstorm.

Perfect my ass, Ginny thought. Only perfect for our family,driving in a thunderstorm.

"Coming!" Ginny replied, putting on her subtle fake smile.

They were flying somwhere over Russia in the new flying car, which now flew faster and was energy efficient, thanks to Hermione. The inside was also expanded to be about the size of a bus, but of course they were in a minivan.

"Well Ginny, you've graduated and now comes the time to enter a profession. I've no doubt you'll find one," Mrs.Weasly said.

"Well Mother, I don't know what to do. Perhaps I can work at the Ministry. You think they'll take me? Or maybe I can start a band or something."

"Of course they'll take you at the Ministry,my dear. Your father can put in a good word for you."

"As well I," Percy chipped in. "You can get any department you wish."

"Well I'll have to think about it. I'll take a few days."

"Of course you will my dear. Now let's all quiet down and have a nice nap...the rest of us." Ron and twins had fallen asleep as soon as the got in the car. Hermione and Harry had decided to stay in Anchorage for a little while to take a cruise to see Prince William Sound and Harry wanted to go fishing.

While the rest of the family slept, Mr. Weasley had put the car on auto pilot alert, Ginny thought.

Perhaps I should work at the Ministry, Ginny thought. I could learn their secrets, stop them if someone figures out Voldermort's not really dead. But then there's the risk. They could find out if I slip. But I won't slip.

"I won't," Ginny muttered then closed her eyes to sleep.

Unknown to all, Ginny had posession of the diary again. Draco Malfoy had given it to her on the day she graduated from Hogwarts.

They were all seated in the Great Hall for the graduation feast in which anyone in and was in Hogwarts could come and partake. Ginny had confessed her secret to him in his sixth year when he caught her talking to Voldermort in the fire at the Slytherin common room. Everyone had left to go to Hogsmeade but Ginny stayed back. 'To finish up my homework' she had told anyone who asked. Draco actually did stay for that particular reason. And also in his sixth year he had publicly changed sides, which was of course a plot with Voldermort.

When she saw Draco in the Great Hall for the graduation feast she made her excuses and got up to use the restroom.

Draco caught up with her and handed a package to her as he passed by.

"A present," he whispered in her ears.

Ginny walked to Moaning Myrtle's bathroom, locked herself in a stall and proceeded to open the package.

It was a wire bound sketch book but the pages started to look old, then she saw the crisp sketch paper.

She wondered. Could it be? Ginny hurriedly took out a pen and wrote hello on the first page. The words disappeared and Ginny appeared written in fancy script.

It was! It was the diary but disguised. Ginny wrote, I'm sorry I can't stay I must keep up appearances. Ok, was the reply.

Ginny hurried back to the Great Hall wanting the feast to be over.

"What's that," Ron asked her, with his face full of food.

"Oh a present from a classmate. Just a sketchbook really."

"Oh," he said, helping himself to another slice of cheesecake.
