Ginny walked around the castle looking for Hermione. She bumped into some brad shoulders and feel on the floor. When she looked up she was face to face with Draco. Draco helped her up and asked,
"Have you seen Mini? I cannot find her anywhere. I'm getting worried."
"I was going to ask you the same think. I have not seen her since she left after talking Harry. She is not in the library, Gryffindor common room, or the Great Hall. How about you?" Ginny asked worried.
"Same. She is not in the Slytherin common room either. Where could she be?" Draco asked worried.
They both gave each other this worried look and ran to the Headmaster's office. Harry saw Ginny running with Malfoy he stopped her and asked,
"What's wrong Ginny?"
"I can't talk now Harry. But have you seen Hermione anywhere? Draco and I have not seen her anywhere and we checked everywhere." Ginny stated.
Harry shocks his head and then all three of them ran to the gargoyle statue that hid Dumbledore's office. Harry shouted the password and they ran up the stairs. They ran into Dumbledore's office.
"Headmaster we can't find," Right when Ginny was about to say Hermione there stood Tonks.
"You can't find Hermione. She was supposed to meet me in Hogsmeade. She never showed up. What happened? This is supposed to be your first Hogsmeade trip right?" Tonks asked confused.
"Yes. Hermione and Ginny were going to come down after Hermione, Pansy, and I stopped by the library but then she had this idea and ran out of the room. She told Harry some of the truth but then the Professors interrupted and she left. That was the last time we all saw her." Draco explained.
"This is not good. She could be anywhere. Did she ever come down to Hogsmeade?" Tonks asked.
"I don't think so. She told me that she needs some air and said that she wanted to talk to me later. But I did not see her walking by the lake. Maybe Hagrid saw her?" Harry stated.
Everyone forgot that Harry was there. He was being so quiet in the room. He wanted to know what was going on. Hermione is not always this different. Harry turned to look toward Ginny and saw that Ginny and Draco had this worried look on their face. Harry had never seen Draco Malfoy look so worried or show any emotions for anyone in his entire life so far.
"We have to see if she is still in the castle. You should get everyone to look for her. This is not like Hermione to disappear for all period of time without telling someone." Harry stated.
"Mr. Potter you are correct. We will have the ghost and teacher to look. You all go back to your houses and stay there." Dumbledore stated.
"No disrespect Headmaster but I think we should help too. We know Hermione way better than most of the professors here." Ginny stated.
"Very well Miss Weasley. You may help and if you can get some other students to help that would be great. I shall ask Hagrid to check around the Forbidden Forest. Tonks can you inform the order what is going one. They need to be ready just in case it is what we think happened." Dumbledore stated.
"You don't think that she was kidnapped by them? Do you?" Ginny asked shocked.
"I am not sure but we have to keep that in mind." Dumbledore stated.
"But the school and Hogsmeade are protected by spells and charms. How could they get her then?" Draco asked worried for his cousin.
"I do not know Mr. Malfoy. But I promise you this that we will find her." Dumbledore stated while going to inform the teachers.
Harry and Ginny ran to the Gryffindor common room while Draco went to the Slytherins. When both houses came to the Great Hall to get informed by Dumbledore they were surprised to see each other.
"What are worms doing here?" Ron asked surprised.
"We are helping. Some of us do care Weasley." Pansy spatted.
"Really I thought you don't talk to your kind. You never liked Gryffindors." Dean spatted back.
"We care for Mini!" Blaise stated.
"Who's Mini? We are here looking for Hermione." Pavarti said.
"ENOUGH! We are here looking for the same person. We need to find Hermione." Draco yelled.
"Why do you care so much Malfoy?" Ron asked mad.
"Because she is my cousin and I care for my family." Draco spatted turned around to listen to Dumbledore.
