Chapter 2: The descent
AN: Wow, seems a couple of people like this story. Glad you're up for it! Please keep on reviewing this story, the more feedback I get the better the story becomes. You might have noticed my chapter was quite short. I'll keep it that way, making it easier for myself to keep at it ;) Nobody likes a dropped story after all. Of course, this will mean I'll keep you updated more often. That might be a weird statement, considering it has been over a week since I've started. Real life kicked in though, setting me back. Another thing; you might notice I'm not afraid to throw around the lemony stuff. Well, this is an M rated story for a reason. But don't worry, it will move to the background. But well, what can I say? The characters are grown-ups and grown-ups do shag. For now; enjoy people.
Harry was left speechless as he was looking in shock at his, for now, girlfriend. The war hero knew this probably would be the end of an era. "I can't believe it. We've been working on our relationship for years! I know we've had our difficulties the last few years, but I freaking loved you!" Ginny was obviously fuming. "And you! My brother has been after you for years. And you cheat on him with his best friend? And don't deny it! I see Harry's semen all over you."
Harry still couldn't open his mouth, he still couldn't answer. Hermoine however stood up, trying to wipe her hair clean. "Your brother? Don't get me started on him. He was shagging 2 women, former dormmates even! In MY FUCKING BED! And it's not my fault you became a stuck up bitch all of a sudden." Her wand was pointed at the youngest Weasley. Sparks were coming out of it. Hermoine was definitely holding back.
It wasn't sure who fired the first shot. Before Harry was holding his wand the 2 women started a ferocious duel. "PROTEGO!". The 2 women were stopped by the naked seeker. "Stop this madness at once. I won't deny what I've done, but could we please talk for a second!?" Harry shouted, lowering his wand as he was talking. This was a mistake however. Ginny didn't hesitate and shouted "Expelliarmus!", disarming the war hero with the very spell he used to achieve his heroic status.
Hermoine used this brief second to answer, being angry at the lowly act by the star chaser and used a spell Harry thought was unlike his best friend to ever use. "IMPERIO!" Ginny then dropped her wand, staring at the 2 with glazy eyes. "Hermoine! How could you?" Harry was angry at his best friend. "You used an Unforgiveable! At a girl I still clearly love!" Hermoine however ignored the naked man, walking over to Ginny and grabbing her wand. She then grabbed Ginny by her wrist. The bushy haired woman then said: "Harry, get some sleep. I've got some business to attend with your so-called girlfriend. You still love her? Think about THAT for a second!" before apparting away.
Harry sighed. How could he have let it come this far? In one evening he lost his girlfriend, his best friends were over and Hermoine seemed have lost it. An Unforgiveable? Harry knew something was up. He also knew it would be no use to chase after her. He never managed to outsmart Hermoine, who by now probably was somewhere where he couldn't reach her. The man-who-won walked over to kitchen, grabbing a bottle of firewhiskey. He never bothered to get a glass and started drinking right away.
Edgeware Road, London
Hermoine apparated in her secret London apartment. She had this small place for years, using it as a resting point if she ever needed a break from her work. Sighing, she decided to sit down on her sofa. She couldn't realize what she just has done. If word ever got out she definitely would be Azkaban bound. Then she noticed the red-heared woman, an insane idea popping up. If she already was in this mess, why not make the best of it?
"Say Ginny. In my closet there is a hidden stack of lust potions I've been using in case I got stuck up with Ron. I clearly don't need them anymore. Would you be a dear and drink it? All of it." She said manically. Ginny gave her a forced smile, nodding. "Ye… yes master". Then she moved over to the secret stash of lust potions. There was enough to use for a year! Not being able to resist Hermoine's spell she then started to down all of it.
Hermoine sat down, holding her hands in her hair as reality just struck her. "What have I done?" she thought. She somehow went down to Harry, performing a sexual act on him. And she used an Unforgiveable. That would be enough to put her in Azkaban for the rest of her life. And Ginny… "Ginny! Stop drinking!" she shouted. Drinking the entire stash of lust potion would permanently scar her, maybe even threaten her life. Ginny stood up and walked over to Hermoine. "Mistress Hermoine, I've just finished drinking the potions. What's your next command?" Hermoine panicked. She didn't know of an antidote strong enough to repel the amount of potion Ginny just took. It wouldn't be long until the potions would kick in, changing the red-head forever. However, taking her to St. Mungo's would mean the healers would find the damage of the Imperius curse. Hermoine quickly dressed herself in a robe. She then took her wand, removing the memories of the last hour and removing the Imperius curse. "Okay, we're going over to St. Mungo's, follow me" Hermoine opened the door, before she was struck by a spell. All she saw was a group of masked people before passing out.
The next day
Harry grunted as he woke up from his sofa, noticing an empty bottle of firewhiskey. "My head, what the hell happened last night?" he thought, before looking outside. The sun was about to set, meaning he missed training. "Great, Butler's going to kill me" he whispered. Christopher Butler was the manager of the Ballycastle Bats and very strict on discipline. Harry took a quick shower and got dressed. He knew he should contact Butler and explain himself, but last night was a total gap.
Suddenly he heard some knocking on my door. "Great, visitors" he grunted before opening the door. He recognized the man as Emma Holiday, Ginny's agent. "Emma, to what do I owe the pleasure?" Harry said in a weakly voice. Emma was a tall blonde, a bit chubby as well. She used to be a fan of Harry, before she got to learn him better. Harry knew that he was a 'bad influence' to Ginny, according to Emma. It's not like Emma really cared much about Ginny personally, but anything that could damage her income was considered a threat. "Bloody hell Potter, you've been drinking again haven't you? I can smell the firewhiskey. I've tried to reach you all day, but nobody was answering the floo." Harry sighed. "Yes, I have. But I assume you're not here to check me out?" Emma looked at Harry in disgust. "Not in a million years. Where's Ginny? She wasn't at training this morning, or even the afternoon." Harry looked up in surprise. "She wasn't? I assumed she was at the Harpies, considering she isn't here." Emma sighed. "So you don't know either? Well, she's missing. I'll check at her parents house. I suggest you check up at Ron Weasley. I still can't access that place." Emma didn't even bother waiting for Harry's answer and walked outside before apparating.
Harry knocked at Ron's door. It used to be much easier to enter the place back in the days, but Hermione decided it was safer to disable the Floo for incoming calls and transport. After 5 minutes of knocking nobody answered. "Strange, there usually is someone in this time of the day" he whispered to himself. Harry stepped away from the lawn and decided to sit down. 'What was going on?'
He didn't have much time to think about it. All of a sudden he was surrounded by 10 cloaked figures, wands aimed at him. "Auror strike team. Harry Potter, stand up with your hands up in the air." A voice shouted. Harry looked up in surprise. "What did I do? What's going on?" Harry asked before standing up, without raising his hands. Quite a mistake, as he was hit by 5 stunners. The lead Auror walked up towards Harry. "You're under arrest due to suspicion of casting an Imperius Curse."
AN: Well, that's it. Took me quite a bit of effort to write this stuff down. I really need some experience. However, what I need more is reviews. Please, I need them! Tips on my writing, or any feedback. Anyho, plot thickens! I'll try and get the next chapter up within a week.
