A/N: Very short chapter coming up but I didn't really think I could stick onto the next chapter which is fairly long. I will update quickly though…

Searching For Harry
"Maybe we could ask someone?" Hermione said doubtfully. "Someone might have seen him…"
Ginny looked at her in a way that suggested she thought she had hit her head on something hard.
"Do you really think he will be just wandering around for everyone to see?! If he's been keeping his head down then probably no one has seen him for ages."
Hermione made a huffing sound but said nothing. Ginny was getting more and more grumpy everyday. Ron broke the silence.
"Well it can't hurt to ask can it? Come on." He led them into the Three Broomsticks and walked up to the bar. When Madame Rosmerta saw them she squealed happily.
"Hello! Where have you lot all been?"
Ron smiled at her, trying as hard as he could not to look at her chest.
"Nowhere special. We were wondering if you had seen Harry recently."
She seemed to think about it for a while before replying.
"Not for a few weeks, no." Ginny shot Hermione a look that clearly said 'Told you so' before she continued. "But I did see that friend of his this morning."
"Right…" said Ron, feeling slightly confused. "Well do you know where we could find him?"
Again, she though for a while and then led them to a window. She pointed to the end of the road at a small gate.
"I don't know exactly where he is but they all seem to go off through there. If you go through that gate and keep walking for a while you might find someone who can tell you."
They thanked her and headed towards the gate.
"What are we going to do when we find him?" Hermione asked nervously.
Ron looked slightly nervous too.
"I dunno… we talk to him I guess… Let's just concentrate on finding him first."
They walked on in silence for a few moments before they saw someone wearing dark robes just ahead of them. Ron gestured to the girls to follow and dodged behind a rock to see where the person was going. Slowly they started to follow. They didn't know where the person was going but they were going the way that Madame Rosmerta had said Harry's 'friends' always went so following seemed obvious.
They followed the stranger for what seemed like ages before he (or she- they couldn't tell from behind) disappeared round a corner. They crept round to find whoever it was had gone. Ron was about to speak when he felt a bar hit the back of his knees. He yelled and crumpled to the ground. Ginny and Hermione tried to spin round and defend themselves but pretty soon they were on the floor too. They looked up to see a young looking girl standing over them holding a branch.
"Sorry about this" she said, not looking even slightly apologetic, and pulled out an old looking wand. Stunning them before they had a chance to move.
