Hermione sat up groggily; her head was throbbing. She waited for her vision to clear then looked around her, she was in the middle of the forest, and nobody was in sight. Then she remembered Harry was… she saw… no he wasn't dead, he was just knocked out… right? Pushing herself up against a rock she noticed a shadowy figure in the forest.
Rolling off the back of the rock she peered over the top and saw that the figure was getting nearer. Hermione started shaking and her breathing became more rugged. She closed her eyes and leaned next to the rock, waiting for it to spot her. Suddenly she heard a loud bark and she screamed. A large black dog came bounding around the rock, and Hermione breathed a sigh of relief.
"Don't you ever do that again Snuffles! You scared me half to death!"
"Sorry Hermione" Sirius said after transforming into himself.
"Why are you here anyway?"
"I was going to ask you the same question actually…"
"Well I don't know how I got here, I was in the forest with Harry… then we were both knocked unconscious and I have no clue where Harry is…
"I was actually looking for Harry…"
"Oh, wait, how'd you know he was in the Forbidden Forest?"
"I'm his Godfather, I just know these things" Sirius answered with a wink.
"You mean because of the Marauder's map, did you bring it with you?"
"You are really a smart girl you know?" Sirius said laughing, "But no I didn't bring it, I was afraid I would manage to lose it."
"That's what everyone tells me" Hermione replied with a giggle; but then suddenly turned serious, "Hey, we really need to find Harry… even if we don't have the map."
Sirius nodded and then took his animagus form and then he and Hermione set forth into the darkness.

Ron tried to see where Crabbe and Goyle were taking him, but they had blindfolded him before they left the common room. It was still a mystery as to how they were able to get in, grab him, and get out, all without being seen. Then it occurred to him, what did Parvati mean that they got Hermione and Harry! Where were they? How could he be so dumb to leave them alone?
He felt Crabbe and Goyle stop walking and dropped him. Ron's back now ached from the hard stone floor beneath him. But before he could try to figure out where they were he was once again lifted up. It was amazing how little Crabbe and Goyle talked when Malfoy wasn't around, he figured they would talk more when Malfoy wasn't doing all the talking.
They walked for a while more and he heard the familiar sounds of being outdoors. In about twenty more long minutes they placed him down in somewhere he figured to be the middle of the forest and then the sound of Crabbe's and Goyle's big feet walking away filled his ears.

Ginny and Neville were walking in Hogsmeade with their hands locked together. Ginny really couldn't believe she agreed to go out with Neville. She was actually hoping that she could find Ron and Harry, because maybe she could think of some way to go with them instead. Leading Neville around to different stores that she thought Ron and them could be, she noticed that they obviously didn't want to be found.
"Hullo Ginny!" said a voice. Looking up she saw a smiling Colin Creevey standing in front of her with his little brother and another smaller girl.
"Hey Colin" She replied standing up from the bench she and Neville were sitting on.
"I was wondering, have you seen Harry around anywhere?"
"No, maybe they didn't go to Hogsmeade," Ginny answered shrugging.
"Well, My little cousin wanted to talk to him, she is a 3rd year now in Ravenclaw."
Ginny smiled but told them that she really had no clue where her brother and Harry were, but was disapointed when she was left alone with Neville again.

Hermione and Snuffles were wandering around the forest when Hermione noticed that someone was in the clearing ahead of them. Looking down at Snuffles he wagged his tail as if to say lets go check this out. At first both of them walked very slowly approaching the figure, but then Hermione started to run towards the still body after seeing bright red hair.
"Ron!" Hermione called as she ran, but received no answer.
When she reached Ron she noticed that he was blindfolded. After removing the cloth she noticed his eyes were wide with relief, Hermione was all of a sudden reminded of Neville in the first year. Realizing it was a simple body-binding curse, she stepped back and removed the curse and helped the aching Ron to his feet.
"Thank goodness I found you!" Hermione said throwing her arms around him.
"Yea," Ron said awkwardly releasing her grasp, "what happened to Harry? Weren't you two together?"
"Were is right, I don't know, Harry and I were both knocked unconscious, but he was taken away and I was just moved deeper in the forest I suppose, and what happened to you?"
"I was just innocently going up to the 6th grade boy's dorms when Parvati cast the body binding spell and I was blindfolded and carried off by Crabbe and Goyle," Ron answered messaging his aching muscles.
"Great" moaned Ron, "now how are we suppose to find Harry?"
"My guess is wherever Draco and Lavender are," said Sirius after transforming back into human form.
"Siruis? How'd you get here?"
"Long story made short is that I was looking for Harry because I was concerned about him because of that letter Hermione sent to me, and glancing at the Marauder's map I saw him and Hermione in the forest and set off to find them."
"Please tell me you have the map with you…"
"Sorry."
"Okay now what are we going to do? I mean we have no way out of this Forest, I think we are in deeper even than Harry and I were during 2nd year! We are completely lost, and we don't know where Harry is, or even if he is still in the Hogwarts ground!" Ron said pacing back and forth.
"Calm down Ron, jeez, why don't we try to head out of the forest and find the map and see if Harry is still here. Either that or we can continue wandering around aimlessly, I mean we did find you by doing that." Hermione reasoned.
"Well quite frankly, if we head out of the forest we would be wondering around aimlessly, cause how do we know what direction to go in? the trees are too thick to see the sky, its way to dark in here to barely even see, and I don't even have my wand with me."
"I do have my wand… but I can't think of any spell that would help us in this situation other than light… so really I don't know what to do okay?" Hermione said sitting down on a rock.
"Course, the time that we really need it, the great Hermione doesn't remember any of what she has learned, we are really getting in a fix now." Ron whispered furiously.
"Would you both just give it a rest? We are trying to find my Godson and not to mention you guy's best friend. And quite frankly we are getting no where with this, and aren't you two best friends also? So lets stop the arguing and do something to find Harry."
"Sorry Sirius…" Hermione started but Sirius waved a hand to cut her off.
"Its fine, now lets just at least leave this same spot." Sirius commented just before he transformed.
"Never have heard this angry," Ron mumbled.
"You do know he can still hear you even if he is in his animagus form…" Hermione commented.
"Yea, yea, yea…" He mumbled.

Harry was propped up by a tree when he awoke to find Hermione gone, and Lavender and Draco's voices talking nearby. He listened carefully trying to figure out where Hermione was, or what happened, and how he got here. He noticed that he hadn't been moved far, because he recognized that the bush to his left was the one Hermione and him were using to spy on Lavender and Draco.
"Draco, look our visitor is awake." Lavender said after noticing Harry's eyes upon them.
"Good, good" Malfoy said walking over to where Harry was.
"You always did think you were better than me Harry, but I am not the one tied up now am I?"
"Yes well, I suppose it would be fair to at least hear what you want to say." Draco said removing the cloth, which was gagging Harry.
"Now then, what do you want to say." Malfoy pressed on smirking. But Harry remained quiet.
"Fine if you won't talk… oh but I do believe you want to know about Hermione and Ron of course." Draco said. Yet Harry still stayed silent and was just staring at his long time archenemy.
"Yes, I do believe you want to know about them, well Hermione is tied up somewhere in the middle of the forest, I am sure the werewolves will no doubt catch up with her during the middle of the night, it is a full moon you know."
Harry winced, but remained subdued and still glared at Malfoy. Malfoy grinned at Harry's reaction.
"And a similar fate awaits Ron as well." Draco informed while chuckling, "I told you I would get you one day Potter, but you didn't believe me. And now your friends will die because of you. All because of you."
