No, that can't be, Thought Harry. She's can't have been the one that died! She's the one that shot the curse; I think…But… yes... it is her! She's the one that's dead!

They all were staring at the dead body of Pansy Parkinson; and right behind her was Neville Longbottom with his wand held high. Neville is the one that shot the Avada Kedevra curse. Neville killed Pansy… he just saved everyone's lives.

Without a moment's hesitation, Neville picked up Luna from the ground, ripped off the tape that was on her mouth, and kissed her. It was a long passionate kiss that shocked everyone. After several moments they broke apart and there was a smile on both their faces.

Apparently, Pansy had chosen Luna as the person who would be killed and Neville (who obviously has had a crush on Luna for so long), couldn't watch her being killed; so he jumped in and shot the only curse that would stop Pansy from killing Luna; the killing curse itself.

Everyone was so shocked from what was happening. There were gleeful expressions from the Gryffindor, and expressions of anger from the Slytherin end. Draco was at the point of crying after watching Pansy get killed. He was so sad that he wouldn't even shoot a curse at Neville.

Some Gryffindor went and untied Hermione and Ginny while Neville untied Luna, (Apparently they were dating now). No one knew what to do. As everyone was getting ready to leave, they heard another curse being shot.

"Crucio!!" said a voice from behind. Only this time it wasn't a good guy. The voice came from Draco Malfoy, with his wand pointing straight at Neville.

A jet of light shot from the end of Draco's wand and hit Neville right in the face. Neville screamed in pain as the torture curse was on him. Luna was blasted back as part of the curse had also it her. The others tried to help but all the other Slytherin people crowded a circle around Neville so no one could get near him. Then the screaming stopped. Draco ran to Neville, grabbed him and vanished in thin air.

The other Slytherins also started vanishing, but one of them whipped his wand and, as though hooked by an invisible rope, Hermione and Luna were both dragged to him and they all vanished out of there.

"No!" said both Harry and Ron at the same time!

"They're gonna kill them!" said Ron. "We know they will"

"We'll just have to rescue them before they do!" Harry said in response. Ron looked flabbergasted.

"Harry! We won't be able to. Neville just killed Pansy! We know they want revenge. They are gonna kill them immediately!"

"No necessarily", said the voice of happy, yet also worried Ginny who kept smiling. "Of course they will want revenge, and revenge to them will mean torture. So they will want to torture them first"

"And why in bloody hell are you smiling at the thought of 3 of our friends getting tortured?" Ron said

"Because then they won't be dead!" said Ginny is response.

Harry started getting desperate. "Let's go and rescue them then!" Harry, Ginny, and Ron elected to go and try to find them while the others went to Gryffindor tower to keep guard.

They kept walking the corridors until they reached the Slytherin Common room. Unfortunately, they needed a password.

"Oh come on!" said Ron. "The password is probably 'mudblood' anyway". And with that, the doors opened. Ron looked very pleased with himself. They walked in and ironically, nobody was there.

All of a sudden all 3 of them were getting very sick. They all vomited everywhere and were in screeching pain. They didn't know what was happening. They didn't think that someone was using the Crucatious on them because no one besides themselves was there. And then, all of a sudden, everything went dark.

When they woke up they were in some dark room sitting in a chair. They tried getting up but there were ropes binding them there. All of a sudden the lights went on and they were able to see each other. Harry, Ron, and Ginny were all tied to a chair with their mouths taped. Someone walked into the room and when they all looked around it was Draco. Draco walked to Harry and untied him but grabbed him hard and dragged him off with his wand still pointing at him.

Draco pulled him into another room and when Harry walked in he saw Hermione and Luna and was red in the face. They were both stripped of their robes and wearing clothes that Draco most likely gave them. Hermione was wearing a tiny shirt that only came to mid-stomach and allowed the rest of her stomach to show while wearing short, short-shorts. Luna was also wearing a tiny shirt that basically looked like a bra while the rest of her stomach and belly button showed and she was also wearing short shorts. They were on the laying on the floor asleep with their hands tied behind them, legs tied up, and mouths taped. They were also bloody… which means that they were tortured

Draco chuckled. "Sexy girls they are… but of course. Mudblood's and Blood traitors will get me nowhere in life. I just wanted to show you them before they were killed".

Harry ran up to then and tried to wake them. "Won't work" said Draco. "I've put a sleeping charm on them. Won't wake up for a while. Just like you. Ha! We put a charm in the smell on the common room so when you walked in there, you'd faint very painfully."

Anger and hatred arose in Harry as it had never done before. He ran at Draco but was blasted away when Draco shot a spell at him. Draco laughed then another door opened and Neville was being dragged in by Goyle. Neville's face was also bloody and fearful which meant he was tortured too.

Draco laughed, "Hear hear, Potter! Here is what happens to people who piss me off." And all of a sudden Harry and Neville both were having the Cruciatous curse used upon them.

Pain, as though Harry has never felt before, was being felt upon him. Then it stopped. Goyle was in front of Neville; and Draco in front of Harry. They raised their wands at them again and both yelled at the same time, "AVADA KEDAVRA!" Jets of green light shot out of the end of their wands but instead of hitting Harry and Neville; it hit the wall on the side. I don't get it, thought Harry. They were right in front of us. How did they miss? The answer to his unasked question was answered when he saw who was behind Draco and Goyle; Hermione and Luna. They had pushed the guys' arms out of Harry and Neville's way right before the curse was released.

"That… will teach you to… mess with… our friends," said Hermione in a stuttered voice. Then she took out her wand that was in Draco's pocket and stunned both him and Goyle. Just then, someone grabbed Hermione from the back and was struggling with her as he attempted, with the ropes that Hermione and Luna broke off, to grab her arms and re-tie her up, but she kept jumping and moving. Harry ran to help and he punched the guy right in the face. Harry grabbed the drowsy Hermione while Neville grabbed Luna, who was staring into space very dreamingly, and ran.

They ran into the room Harry was originally in and rescued Ron and Ginny. (Ron jumped when he saw the half-naked Hermione and Luna. He and Harry gave them their sweaters as they left). They all didn't know where they were going. They found a door which coincidently led to the Slytherin common room. They ran in there, wands at the ready, only no one was there. Nothing happened to any of them when they were in there so obviously the charm that was in the smell was not there anymore. They opened the door leading out of the corridor but when they did that, all the Slytherins were there, including Draco. All of a sudden, there were loud shouts and curses soaring at them. They, luckily, all ducked out of the way of the first round of curses; but they weren't so lucky on the second round. Draco yelled out "Avada Kedevra!!!" but no one saw who it hit as the people behind Draco sent stunning spells straight at Harry, Ron, Hermione, Ginny, Neville, and Luna. And then, all was black again…
