Cho Chang. The beautiful Ravenclaw girl, that was to be the duo's next, what's the right word? Victim, if you will. She and Potter had a little 'fling' a couple of years ago, and you never know, old love can come back... And sometimes not even in the good way. Take Parkinson for example. Sure she's hot, but when she sets her mind to someone, you'll be stuck with her for a very long time. No kidding. But anyway, let's get back to the point…
"So Malfoy, any idea who were going to interrogate next?" Ginny asked, walking into the room.
"Yea. I think we should go to Cho Chang. You know, because she and Potter had that fling thing a couple of years ago. Who knows, maybe they started something again. Although I'm having trouble trying to think of a way we could try and get her to spill her guts out…" Draco drifted off into deep thought.
"Well, that's what you have me for isn't it?"
"It is? Because I always thought that I was doing all the planning here." Draco smirked.
"Oh shut your mouth. Bloody hell Malfoy, the answer is right in front of you! Or are you really that blind?
"Oh, I'm so offended Weasley. Really, maybe you should write a book on insults. I bet it would be a best-seller." Draco replied sarcastically.
"You take it out on her beauty, you moron," Ginny replied without so much as blinking an eye. "You have to make something about her ugly (or at least, uglier then it already is), I mean really painfully ugly, until she spill her guts out to you. You just tell her you're not planning on changing it back anytime soon, until she tells you everything she knows. Sound simple enough?"
"Okay fine, you're the master on this one (performs mock-bow). But what do we do? Like what kind of a spell? Because it's got to be something good, and right now off the top of my head I don't really know anything."
"And that's what libraries were invented for," Ginny said. "Come on, you're going to have to get us a pass from Snape for the restricted section. You can handle that, right?"
"No, that has to be the hardest thing I have ever had to do on the face of the earth. My God Weasley, why don't you just stick to your job, and I'll stick to mine. Got it?"
"I thought I was the master in this plan." Ginny replied sweetly.

A couple of hours of searching through dusty tomes and begging for a pass fromn their favourite teacher later, the duo had found exactly the kind of spell that they were looking for. It was perfect, sure to make Cho tell them everything they needed to know. Now all that was left to do, was to work out how to actually use the spell. That might just be a little harder, seeing as neither of them had ever heard of it (propably due to the fact that it's restricted) Of course the first thing she thought of was asking Hermione for help, but there was no point in that, because then she would start asking Ginny why in the world she would want to learn it, and for some reason she was really bad at lying when it came to lying to Hermione. I mean sure, that might be because they were really good friends, but it could also be because Hermione always seemed to know when something was up. Why did she have to know? But, then again, Ginny probably wouldn't ask anyway, seeing as who knows? Hermione might have something to do with Harry, or would know something about him at least. I mean, that's what best friends were invented for…right?
But in what way could I ever possibly learn this? Bloody hell, it has 4 feathers next to it! That's like 1 of the hardest levels! Ginny found herself thinking these very depressing thoughts all through charms, mainly because it didn't matter anyway, seeing as Hermione had already taught her the charm that they were practicing anyway. What have I ever done to deserve this? I need to know how to use this spell! The only reason I'm doing this is to get back at Harry for being a backstabbing piece of trash, and Bloody hell, I'm working with Draco Malfoy on this! Although I guess that hasn't been so bad… Actually it's been a lot better then what I would have thought…Oh well, there's nothing I can do about this now, I'll start practicing the spell tonight together with Draco, he's a year older then I am, he should be able to work this out. With my help, of course.

Later in an (conveniently) empty classroom, Draco and Ginny were practicing the spell. The incantation for it was informis, although neither of them had any idea what it meant. The description sounded absolutely perfect. "Informis is a special spell that will turn your enemy into a hideous creature. This does not mean that they will turn into a demon or a creature, but that they will in turn become gruelingly hideous to a lot of people's eyes. At least, that was the main thought from the 7 pages long description. The practicing had gone on for HOURS on end, and they were both starting to feel exhausted, but they had to keep going if they wanted to perform this soon. They both knew that Cho had some kind of party going on somewhere this very night, and they both knew that she certainly wouldn't go out looking like this. Finally, after another hour of practice, Draco finally got the spell right. Of course they weren't practicing on each other, because that would just be wrong. They had (instead) been practicing on their very own life-sized Harry-dolls, which they hadn't used in a while.
"YES!" Draco practically screamed.
"Let's go," Ginny said. "We have a mission to accomplish."

Finding the girl wasn't that hard: They just had to persuade Luna to give them entrance to the Ravenclaw commonroom. From there on, they just went to the girliest looking room...
(17 seconds later)
"Oh my God, what have you done to my face?!"
The spell had gone perfectly, so perfect in fact, that Ginny and Draco couldn't stop grinning.
"Why are you smiling like that? I want my face back!" Cho shouted, throwing books at Draco, who just lazily flicked his wand. "I have a party to go to!"
"Yes, we know that, trust us we do. But before we give you your normal face back, although I have to say, I really don't see the point," Draco smirked when Ginny said this, "We need you to give us some information."
"What are you, blackmailing me?" Cho asked.
"Yes." Draco replied.
Draco's answers was so blunt, that it caught Cho off guard.
"Fine, what do you want from me!?"
"We want you to tell us everything that went on or is going on with you and Harry Potter." Ginny and Draco said this at exactly the same time, and smiled at each other. Then they turned their attention back to Cho.
"Well? We don't have all day."
"You want to know what went on with me and Harry? Wow, I thought everyone knew what went on with me and Harry. He liked me, I liked him, we went on one date, it was a disaster because I kept crying over Cedric and he really is a bloody moron when it comes to consoling a girl, and we haven't talked since." Cho said simply, "That's the story."
"That's it? Are you sure? You know nothing? Absolutely nothing? We need to know something!" Ginny replied, annoyed.
"Yeah, of course that's it. What? You two didn't seriously think that we went out again or something right? We haven't talked for about 2 years!" Cho laughed.
This time, when Ginny and Draco looked at each other, they didn't smile. This was a total disappointment.
"And you're sure you're telling us everything? Absolutely everything?"
"Hey, I might have lied if my face looked normal, but my face looks idiotic right now and I want it back. So I told you everything. Now please turn my face back to normal!"
But Ginny and Draco didn't hear her. They were already walking out the door, annoyed and disappointed that yet another victim couldn't give them the answer they were looking for. Oh well, at least they had one thing to cheer them up tomorrow. And what would that be? Cho Chang's bloated, pimple filled, red, orange, yellow, veined, oily, freckled, sometimes even purple, squared, bulging-eyed face.
