Disclaimer: These are boring. I know that I need to include them, but honestly. Anyway, Harry Potter isn't mine, nor are any of the characters involved in the story. The plot isn't even mine. It basically belongs to Taito-sterone. But, hey, I own my thoughts, and I can create the story. So don't take it!
A/N - I lied before. I said this was going to be the final chapter. I have one more after this. Honestly. But this is chapter four to Taito-sterone's prize/gift fic. He won my Digimon romance contest (Yamori). Read his winning fic, Wake up to a New Day. It's good. But for now, read this fic. The previous chapter just discussed Hermione's strategic flattery, which kept her from getting detention. I know the question of everyone's mind is, 'What is Hermione's plan?' You'll find out in this chapter. So read. Thank you.

"The name of the game is Mousetrap," Hermione stated simply to Ron and Ginny.
"Run through the plan again, Hermione?" Ginny requested.
"Okay, this is an old Muggle prank that the kids at school used to pull on each other. I lure Malfoy outside, by the tree. Not the Whomping Willow, the one you can't see from any of the castle windows," she added quickly, seeing Ron open his mouth. He shut it and smiled sheepishly. "Once outside, I get him into a preset spot and keep him there. I force him against the tree so the hook catches his pants. Then I cut the rope and he goes flying up. I take a picture of that, then threaten to show the entire school if he doesn't admit to Harry that he's not to blame and it wasn't his fault.
"Meanwhile, you two are keeping teachers from leaving the building and coming over to the area we'll be at. We should be safe unless someone purposely comes over."
"And why won't Malfoy tell?" Ron asked.
"Because he'll be too embarrassed about being caught by a Muggle-born, first off. Second, use our back-up plan."
"Which is?"
"We tell Dumbledore what he did to the Patil twins last week."
"What'd he do?" Ginny wondered.
"He 'borrowed' the school's Bludgers and continually hit them at Parvati and Padma until they were cowering in their respective common rooms. Then he told all the Slytherins and completely humiliated the twins."
Ginny was enraged. "Why that little—"
Ron cut her off. "Watch your language, little sister."
"Sorry."
"Let's do it," Hermione commanded, an unfamiliar battle gleam in her chocolate eyes.
TO BE CONTINUED…
A/N - Sorry it's really short. I just wanted to explain Hermione's plan. The next chapter is the last chapter for sure. Please review.
