"Ok, nice trick you lot, who stole the body?" Draco asked, glancing around the room.
"What ever Malfoy, why would any one want to steal a corpse?" Harry asked, he took another quick swipe of the room to see if there was anywhere it could have been hidded.
"I have no idea, some one may have thought it was funny" Draco replied, glaring at Harry. Harry glared back.
"Boys...our priority is finding the body" Ginny told them, shooting them both a dirty look, the mumbled their appologies and then moved away from the confrontation.
"But, some one would have had to of moved the body...bodies cant move all by themselves" Crabbe replied.
"True...but lets just find the body first." Ginny replied. Gesturing that the group should split up, the all began to scan the room, looking over and under things, opening a closing cubbords (Yeah, if I was a dead body that had just come back to life, I would really hide in a cubbord)
Harry approached Ron as he looked beneith a row of chairs.
"What did you and Hermione talk about before, in the greenhouse?" Harry asked softly. Ron looked at him. He was in caring best friends mode, a total switzerland, not taking sides in the whole matter
"How much I love her" Ron replied sadly, Harry smiled.
"Well done mate, you finally got up the guts to tell her" Harry patted him on the back.
"She shot me down" Ron replied.
"Ouch, mate, I am sorry" Harry replied, but Ron waved his hand dismissively.
"No, it's cool, she doesn't love me and I am cool with that...true it hurts, and it is going to take a while to get over, but it will happen eventually...Gin has aready convinced me of that" Ron replied.
"You are talking to GIn again, that is good" Harry smiled
"Yeah, at least one good thing came out of today" Ron replied and then looked under another row of chairs.
"She is right you know" Harry told him
"Who, Hermione or Gin" Ron asked.
"Gin...there a plenty more fish in the sea" Harry replied.
"Yeah, that is fantastic for those of us who cant fish" Ron muttered sadly, Harry couldn't help but laugh.
"You'll find the right one some day Ron" Harry told him. Ron smiled, but there was sorrow in his eyes again.
"I already found the one I wanted" Ron told him. Harry nodded.
"I understand, you are hurting right now Ron, but it gets easier...after a while" Harry informed him. He was, of course, speaking from personal experience, his girlfriend of two years, Cho, had left him when she left Hogwarts, saying she didn't want to date a student now that she was a woman of the world.
"Yeah, I know, A while" Ron smiled.
There was a giggle to their side, and the boys turned. Draco was in the process of tickling Ginny, their laughter bouncing off the walls of the hall.
"That is going to take a while to get used to" Harry told Ron
"I am used to it already" he replied.
"Umm, what?" He asked
"I talked to Gin, I am going to make an effort, the other Weasleys may not, but I will" Ron replied.
"Never expected you to be ok with..." Harry began
The conversation was interupted with by a scream.
"That was Hermione" Ron said, turning, and making a mad dash for the door to the Greenhouse. Nothing would have prepared him for what he saw when he got there.
The cold, clammy, almost decomposing body of Goyle was holding a knife to Hermione's throat.
"What's going on?" Draco asked as the rest of the group approached the door.
"See Malfoy, I told you the dark lord would not let me die" Goyle replied.
"God Goyle, you look like shit" Draco replied.
"Never felt better" Goyle replied.
"Leave her alone Goyle" Ron yelled as he took a step closer to him and Hermione.
"Like you are going to stop me" Goyle replied, holding the knife closer to Hermione's skin.
"Let her go" Ron repeated.
"I am following orders...The dark llord wants you all dead, but his plan fell through. He came to me while I was sleeping, he told me what I had to do" Goyle began. He looked around the group and then took the knife away from Hermione's flesh. "I have to kill, each and every one of you...starting with the mudblood"
"I ve killed you once in the last three days, dont make me do it again" Ron threatened. Goyle just glared at him.
"I'd like to see you try" Goyle replied. And with that, Goyle discarded Hermione, throwing her to the floor. Ginny, who wasn't thinking properly, ran in front of Goyle to Hermione's side.
Goyle watched her, but didn't move.
"Brave one" Goyle said, nodding to Ginny. Draco took a step closer to his old best friend who was now a pale walking talking corpse.
"Ok, here is what you are going to do...stay the hell away from the girls, and come after Ron and me instead" Draco said, Ron shot Draco a look as though he had gone mad.
"Alright Malfoy, as you wish" Goyle replied as he took a step forward, holding his knife menacingly towards Ron.
"Malfoy, what the hell are you doing?" Ron asked, but before Goyle could get any closer, he heard one of the best sounds in the world.
"Crucio" Draco said, and Goyle fell at Rons feet, writhing in pain.
"Now, Goyle, you are going to tell us how to get home" Draco asked
"Go...to ...Hell....Malfoy" he breathed.
"No, not hell, just Hogwarts" Malfoy replied, the spell stopped, leaving Goyle panting for air.
"I ...will.. never go...against the dark lord." Goyle said.
"Really...Crucio..." Once again, Goyle curled up into a little ball, gasping for air.
"Never..." He muttered.
"How do we get home?" Draco asked.
"I'll ... never ... tell" He replied.
"Come on, this is getting boring ... Crucio" Draco replied.
"Fine...I'll talk" Goyle replied.
"Finally, thank you...now, how do we get home?" He asked. Goyle rolled over and took a deep breath.
"My patients are wearing thin...tell me now." Draco warned, holding out wand again.
"He is waiting for a final confrontation. He has been waiting for days..." Goyle told them.
"Then why hasn't he done anything?" Harry asked.
"The church, he cant come near the church" Goyle replied.
"So we have to go out there to fight him?" Draco asked, Goyle nodded.
"Destroy him, and you will destroy this world, you will be back at Hogwarts" He told them.
"Is that all?" Draco asked
"Yes..." Goyle began.
"Good...pertrificus totalus" Draco replied, Goyle was binded on the spot.
Ron moved to the side and helped up Hermione and Ginny. They both smiled at him, Hermione even hugged Ron. He pushed her off gently and then turned, stepping over the binded Goyle, he walked out of the room.
Ginny turned to Draco, but before she could get to him to hug him, he had also turned and left the room.
Ginny followed, and saw Draco sitting in the back rom of the church, she approached him, and sat beside him.
"I dont like that side of me...I have been trying to get rid of that side of me" Draco said
"What side of you?" She asked
"The death eater side of me...the abusive side of me...The side my father had been forcing on me... I hate it" Draco spat.
"You did it for a good reason...to save me and Hermione" Ginny replied.
"i know, I just hate it" He replied
"Truthfully, it is not the best side of Draco Malfoy" Ginny agreed.
"You know I would never hurt you" Draco whispered, pulling her into a hug.
"I know, I know" She soothed.
"I love you" He told her
"I love you to" Ginny replied, she smiled at him.
Only silence followed, Ginny realised he wanted to be alone with his thoughts. And she agreed, it was only a matter of time until she had fallen asleep in his lap.
