Chapter V
"The Traitor"
Ron was so surprised. "Are you sure it wasn't a dream?" he kept asking.
"Of course I'm sure! We were about to duel. But then Cedric told me that my glasses were a portkey!" he shouted back.
"Diggory? Are you sure? I think you were hallucinating. Tell Dumbledore. Or my dad," Ron said.
Harry sighed. He couldn't wait to get back to Hogwarts where he would be safe with Dumbledore.
On the Wednesday before the Hogwarts Express was coming, they all went to Diagon Alley. Harry was relieved. They all had their school lists. Ron and Harry went to Flourish and Botts first where they met Hermione who looked awfully sick. Ron had told her she looked sick, but she looked very sick still.
"Hermione, are you okay?" Harry asked.
"Oh ummm.I'm f-fine. Harry? Is that you?" she asked him.
"What's wrong with her Ron? She's awful," Harry said.
"I know.it's like she's got some curse on her. When I visited her she was worse. She didn't even know my name," he said. "Dad said it could be serious."
"Hermione? Do you remember me? Harry Potter? Attacked by Voldemort?" he asked. Ron elbowed him.
Hermione began to scream. "He did this to me Harry! He set this curse on me!" she shouted. She fainted. Ron and Harry gasped.
"The Dark Lord won't be happy. She told," said a voice so recognizable and so guilty that Harry about fainted too. It was Cho.
"Cho? It can't be you," Harry said confused.
"Oh. But it is. I am the Dark Lord's faithful servant other than Wormtail. I thought you would find out. Aren't you the one who has escaped the Dark Lord four times? I would expect better of you, Potter," she said with an evil sneer. How could this be happening? Harry's scar burned a little. Harry looked at Ron who was just about as scared as he was.
