Ron had been carried to the hospital wing, much to his protest. He kept on trying to explain that there was nothing wrong with him, but they obviously wouldn't listen. He sat there, glaring at Madame Pomfrey as she jabbed at him, trying to find the wounds that Ron's disapearance had caused. There were none. The nurse was stunned.
"But... What happened?"
"I'd like to know that to," Mr. Weasley said, his eyes on his irate son. Ron rolled his eyes.
"I'm fine! There's nothing wrong with me." Fred and George snorted.
"You disappear for weeks then you tell us that nothings wrong?" Fred asked incredilously. Ron stood up.
"Look, I don't care if you believe me or not, I have buisness to tend to." They were all confused.
"What?" Ron ignored them and whistled. There were shouts outside the door, where Hagrid was supposed to be, then suddenly they burst open, revealing to large lions. Everyone screamed, except Ron. He was smiling.
"There you two are... Where's Oca?" The lions strode over to their master and rubbed up against him, trying to get some attention. Everyone else just stared, cowering in the far corner. Ginny was the first to get her voice back.
"What the hell..." Ron finally noticed them. Smiling he pointed to one of the lions.
"This is Gimlet and this is Toran," he said pointing to the others. Turning back to them he kneeled down. "Where's Oca?" Gimlet growled and raised a paw towards the door. Hagrid came lumbering in.
"You gotta look at this!" Everyone glanced at the two felines warily. Ron shook his head and walked to the door and peeked outside.
"Come in." There was a long silence and then Ron reappeared, followed by the whirlwind that had brought him here.
"Ron. What's going on!" Molly demanded, her eyes switching from the lions to the phonomenon by the door. Ron's face grew serious, his eyes fixed on Oca.
"I know where Hermione is..."
Vor Emalek whined again.
"Please." She begged. Gelon ignored her. She tried again. "Please Gelon." He looked up from her seat, glaring.
"Stop your complaining!" he hissed menacingly. She curled her lip and let out a low growl. He ignored her.
"I don't have time to give you what you want." She glided up to him and straddled him, pressing er body p to his.
"Of course you do..." she cooed into his ear seductivly. His hands traveled up her back, stopping at her soft spot. She screamed.
"Don't even try that... other men might find you enticing, but remember, I'm the only one who can fully resist you." he growled, licking her blood off his claws. Standing he stepped over her body, ignoring her persistant apologies. Bitch.
"You treat your women badly." Gelon looked up to see Voldemort standing there. He smirked at his master.
"Not as badly as you treat yours, I'm sure." Voldemort sneered, stepping over Hermoine's body. She growled from her spot on the floor, only to be struck in the face with the Dark Lords foot.
"I suggest you control her. I will not go to Hogwarts with a slut whose biological clock is going crazy." Gelon bowed. Voldemort looked pleased and went on. "I want to know the where abouts of a certain redhead." Gelon hissed.
"Weasley's been back for at least four hours... I don't want to deal with him now..."
"Will he be a problem?" Gelon smirked.
"For you, no, but for me..." He jerked his head to Vor Emalek. "I'm fighting for full rights." Voldemort frowned, something that was interesting to see.
"Full rights?" Gelon nodded.
"Vor Emalek is not completely mine. She does still have the mudblood in her... The mudblood belongs to Weasley, not me. Until All Hallows Eve, I do not have full rights to Vor Emalek." Voldemort looked over the girl, eyebrows raised.
"Looks like you've taken full rights." Gelon shook his head.
"Master, you are mistaken. I may her mind, but I do not control her emotions. While Weasley is still alive, I will never have control of that." Voldemort turned to leave.
"Well, I suggest you try. I will not tolerate rogues in my ranks." With that he swept out of the room, robes billowing behind him. Gelon whirled around and grabbed Vor Emalek by the throat, pinning her to the wall. Glaring at her with hatred, he choked her until something surfaced in her eyes. Hatred.
"Listen!" he hissed. "I know you can hear me. Don't test me. Vor Emalek has told you what I'm capable of... I may not kill you, but I'll sure as hell kill those stupid muggles in Hogsmeade." His nose was touching hers, his hot breath filling her senses. "Don't test me." What was left of Hermione glared back through the eyes that now betrayed her as she struggled to hopelessly gain control of the body that was no longer her own. Gelon looked on in disgust and let her go, letting her drop to the ground gasping. The girl took several deep breaths then looked up, grinning. Vor Emalek was back in control.
"She wants to tell you something." Gelon sneered.
"What's that?" Vor Emalek stood, dusting herself off.
"The fire will consume you..."
"Ron! Slow down!" Ron whirled around, glaring at the two.
"I have to get to the woods." Harry stooped over, trying to catch his breath.
"Why?" Ron started off for the woods again, talking as he went.
"There is alot you do not know. Hermione's still alive, but she's not in control anymore. Vor Emalek is in control of her body." Ginny shook her head, completely confused.
"Wait, what? Who's Vor Emalek?"
"Vor Emalek is my creation... like Oca."
"Who's Oca?" Ron smiled and pointed to the formation in the forest.
"That's Oca... Oy! Oca!" Green eyes appeared from the frosty phenomenon and the thing bowed. Ron frowned. "No... This is him..." He said pointing to Harry. He then went quiet for a moment, gazing intently on Oca. He nodded his head. "Of course it's ok... Yes... I know..." Harry and Ginny glanced at each other.
"Ron... Who are you talking to?" Ron turned to Harry.
"I need to show you two something... just don't freak out." Ginny snorted.
"Why would we freak out?" Ron rolled his eyes. Lifting his head to the sky he raised his hands. Oca ballooned slightly then began to surround Ron. Harry and Ginny stepped back, eyes wide. The tridants started to form in his hands as Oca continued to circle. Then it stopped. Oca glided away and kept his eyes on his creator. Ron stepped forward and slammed his weapons to the ground.
Boom! Ginny screamed as the ground around them shook. She grabbed Harry's arm, staring at her brother with fear and amazement. Ron smiled and it was over. Harry stepped forward.
"What the hell was that!" Ron grinned.
"It was a warning." Ginny frowned.
"A warning for who?"
"Gelon... So he knows that he has two more days..." Harry didn't like the sound of that.
"And then what?"
"Voldemort will come... and so will Hermione." They had told that Hermione was with Voldemort. What Ron had failed to tell them was that Voldemort was coming to Hogwarts.
"WHAT!" Harry bellowed, outraged. "VOLDEMORT'S COMING HERE!" Ginny took hold of his hand, trying to calm him down. Ron's eyes glanced down curiously at the contact, but he decided to let it slide. For now...
"There's nothing you can do to stop it. The battle's coming, so you'd better be ready." Ginny shook her head.
"Ready... how is Harry going to be ready in time?" Ron smiled and glanced behind the two. They followed his gaze, turning around. Ginny gasped. Harry smiled.
"Are you being serious?" Ron walked beside Harry, placing his hand on Harry's shoulder.
"Gimlet and Torran taught me everything I know." Ginny snorted.
"That shouldn't be much." Ron reached around Harry and grabbed his sister, putting her in a headlock.
"I didn't have to learn this." Ginny laughed. Harry smiled, watching as Ron joked with his sister. It was good to have Ron back... He frowned. But how long would that last?
"Ron?" He turned to see his mother walking over to him timidly. He smiled.
"The lions aren't here... they're with Harry..." Molly relaxed slightly as she sat down next to her son, placing an arm on his shoulders.
"I've missed you." Ron looked at her.
"I missed you too." Molly nodded and turned to the lake, watching the giant squid glide silently across the moonlit surface. She then turned back to Ron.
"It was you wasn't it... All those accidents... it was you?" Ron frowned, but nodded.
"Well, technically it was Oca." Molly frowned.
"That snowy thing?" Ron nodded.
"Where did it come from?" Ron turned to his mother.
"He came from me... I created him... just like I created the thing that's now possessing Hermione."
"Is she safe?" Ron gave a sharp laugh.
"Depends on the definition of safe. If you mean alive... then yeah. If you mean out of danger, then yeah... If you mean sexually satisfied-"
"Ron!" He stood, glaring at his mom.
"Don't! I'm the only one that knows what's happening to her! I..." He looked away. "Mum... I own her." Molly stood up, confused.
"What?" Ron into his mother's eyes.
"I'm the only one who can save her... I have to fight Voldemort's little pet, while Harry fights Voldemort. If I fail..."
"Then Hermione dies..." Ron nodded silently. He looked down at his hands.
"I promised myself that I wouldn't hurt her... that I'd protect her." Molly took her son's face and gazed into the eyes of a boy that she no longer recognized. She smiled slightly.
"You've grown up..." Ron avoided her eyes.
"No I haven't." She smiled.
"Yes you have... You know how I can tell?" Ron finally met her gaze. "You've fallen in love... I've been noticing it with Fred and George. It might not be dramatically." Ron snorted. "But you can tell by the little things. Angelina and Alicia have done some good things for those two and Hermione's done some good things for you." Ron's face grew passive. Molly looked into his eyes searching.
"You'll get her back... both you and Harry... I know you will." He looked over to the lake then back to her mother. He pulled into a tight embrace, trying to keep hold of the little control he had left.
"I hope so..."
A/N: Just so you all know. Blood and Chocolate might not be updated for at least two weeks. I might update sooner. After the last chapter I'm having an extremly hard time doing the rest. Thanks. I hope everyone loved the little hint of Hermione. She never gives up.
ronandmion4ever: Parenthesis are ok! I love them to! (cough not really Cough!) Anyway, glad you liked.
Reader of Canon FF: I know how you feel. I have a very bad work load also.
Wesker888: Just wait until the actuall fight between Ron and Gelon. That's probabably going to be long.
Coconut Girl: That's right... evil genius. I like the sound of that.

No, my computer is fine. This is how the chapter will look. Just so you aren't confused.
