Dragon Rod
A/N: Morag is not my character, he is one of J.k's insufficient ones, but he works.
The end of two months
Ginny woke up again breathing heavily. She had had another episode of her dream. It happens every night on the full moon. Every time Ginny has this dream there is always something more to it. Tonight she say Maledicta but he didn't epeat5 his usual phrase, he said something about 'marry the rods.' I know that the rods have to be married but why is he telling us? I wonder if Draco has the same dream, tomorrow I'll ask him. Ginny tried to go back to sleep but it was 5 in the morning so she decided that it wasn't going to happen. Ginny got up took a shower and got dressed. She put on a blue gene skirt and a red sweater before her robes. It didn't clash with her hair, it was a ruby red. Ginny grabbed her books and went down into the common room to do some studying.
Inside the common room it was very dark, Ginny flicked on a light and she saw Hermione and Ron asleep on one of the chairs locked in each others embrace. Well it's about time. Ginny thought. I wonder how long they've been together?
"Ahem." Ginny coughed, Ron and Hermione woke with a start and begun rambling on about being to tired and just dozed off, nothing happened.
"It's ok I wont tell anyone." Ginny said earnestly.
"thank you, gin" Ron replied and they both left to each other's dorms. It was now 6:35 and Ginny decided to go down for breakfast.

Draco woke up in shock, he had another dream. This one was a lot shorter than before and a little different, Maledicta only said a few words. Draco looked at the clock on the wall and it chimed 'time to get up'. Draco got out of bed and got dressed, he put on a forest green sweater and black slacks under his robes. When Draco was finished he slicked back his hair and went down to breakfast. He was the only Slytherin up this early for food, so he sat at his tale and looked around to see who was up. Not many people are awake at 6:45 in the morning, they usually don't come down until 7:30, well that can be expected because classes don't start until 9:00. Draco looked around the room and saw a few first year Hufflepuffs up, no Ravenclaws, and two Gryffindoors. Ginny and some second or first year. For some reason Draco's attention was drawn to Ginny again, maybe because she was standing up and walking towards him? What? Why is she coming over here? Draco put on his best snear.
"Are you lost Weasel?" Draco stated
"Stuff it, Malfoy. I just want to ask you something." Ginny replied a little angry. She was trying to hide her fear from him, but he could tell that she was afraid.
"Coming to 'yours truly' for the awnsers, I say you might have some sense. What can I do you for and make it quick I don't want anyone to see me consorting with a Weasel." Draco sneared.
"I want to know if you have been having the same dream as me?"
"Why would I have the same dream as YOU?" Draco emphisied the you. He knew what dream she was talking about, and it starled him, but she didn't notce.
"I . . .i …don't know, it's just t-t-that w-w-ell y-you were I-I-n mine." Ginny stammered trying to regain herself.
"What was this dream about?" Draco said disgustedly, she looks cute when she stutters, oh god what and I thinking, STOP IT.
"Well were running in the woods and then a ghost appears, his name is Maledicta and he keeps saying some riddles and 'the rods must be married'. Do you have this dream? I think it has something to do with the myth about Jazan and Basain , the dragon rods and stuff. Do you know about that myth?"
"Yes I know about that myth," Draco said scarastically "No I don't have this dream, it seams and interresting one tho'! Why do you want to know?" Draco lied
"Oh, well I was just wondering, maybe you could help me or something, but I'm sorry I disturbed you your highness." Ginny emphasized. She had a hunch that Draco wasn't giving all truth, he had to have had that dream to, he just looked like it, oh I don't know I wish I never went to talk to him he makes me so mad. Ginny got up and left. She saw Morag entering the hall and she went up to him.
"Hi, how are you? Excited about the dance tonight?" Morag greeted her.
"Ecstatic." Ginny replied happily and he kissed her.
"So what is your costume going to be? I hope Hagrid put up the pumpkins."
"I can't tell you, you know the rules." They laughed and went to his table.
"Ahem, excuse me people, now we all know about the dance tonight," Dumbledor said "no telling anyone what your costume is and at midnight the person who you are dancing with you will revel yourself to, and kiss." Then he sat down and ate.

Later that night every one was in the dining hall dressed up as the craziest things in the world. Ron was a women, Harry was a knight, Hermione was a princess, Ginny dressed as a fire fairy, she had a red ruby princess dress with flames of Purple and green and gold crawling up it from the bottom. The top had a low cut neck and ribbons flowing off it in the purple, green and gold. She wore a mask with lots of fiery sparkles on it, it covered her eyes only, off the top two corners a white see-through cape fell down over her hair. You could still see her hair though it, and it was flowing untamed and had sparkles that flickered in the light. Ginny also used a cream that put sparkles all over her body, she put it on her face, arms and neck. There were lots of fairies and three vampires, some werewolves, ghosts etc.

Draco dressed up as a phantom, he wore all black with a long flowing black cloak covering his whole body and his head so no one could recognize him. With his costume he held a cyeblade. Draco and the rest of the Slytherins made their way to the grate hall. Dumbledor, dressed as a clown, stood up and spoke;
"Would all the Gentleman stand on this side of the wall," pointing to the right "and the ladies on the other wall." Pointing to the left. He then started taking pick of students and placing them in pairs.
"These will be your partners for the rest o f the night." He said beaming. Every one was with their person trying to figure out who the other person was. Harry was with a ghost, Ron with a princess, Neville was with a witch, Morag was with a hooker, Hermione was dancing with another girl, and Ginny was with a guy in a black cloak. They danced all night. Ginny loved her partner he was the best dancer she had ever seen or danced with.
Draco wasn't too distraught, he had already guess most of the peoples costumes, and who they were. He noted that Ron and that mudblood were together, Harry was stuck with Blaise, and Neville was with Pansy as she kept asking if he was Draco. Ginny boyfriend was with Harry's Girlfriend. But he couldn't figure out who his partner was. He had a hunch but he didn't want it to be. She was a good dancer and compliments to her costume. When midnight chimed every one stopped dancing.
"Ok, it's time to take off our costumes." Dumbledor beamed and the lights dimmed only enough so that you could see the person in front of you. Harry and Blaise found out who each other were, shocked you could say, Harry politely kissed her on the cheek and promptly ran as fast as he could out the door to avoid her pounding him, same happened for Neville except you wouldn't think it possible but he ran faster than Harry and squealed like a pig. Hermoine and Ron were pleased to find each other and stepped out side, probably to have a snog session. Morag kissed Hannah on the lips and she blushed. Ginny then took off her mask and Draco assumption was correct.
"You have to take off yours off too." Ginny said politely. Draco scanned the room looking for a jealous brother, only to find nothing, he then removed his hood and a shocked Ginny froze in her spot.
"Expecting potter." Draco snarled and bent over a little and kissed her rosy lips. Ginny just stood there taking in the warmth of his lips on her and she noted that his kiss was better than Morag's. Draco swiftly left the grate hall and to his common room hoping that nobody saw him kiss a Weasley. Ginny blushed and she turned to leave the hall, Morag who? Ginny thought as she went over the kiss in her mind while she was leaving the great hall and up to her dorm.
