Pheww, look at me, writing mania. I'm doing two or three chapters in one day! That's a lot for me! Well anyway, here is the article that Rita Skeeter wrote, and it is absolutely disgusting, untrue, and downright embarrassing. Hee hee hee, here we go!

Rita Skeeter's Article

The next day Rita Skeeter's article for the Daily Prophet came out. Draco and Victoria go hold of a copy as soon as they could, and ran to the very back of the library so that they could read it without interruption. "Oh God," said Victoria when she had finished it. "We're doomed!"

"Too right," said Draco. "There go out reputations throughout the entire wizarding world, down the drain." He was too shocked to say anything else. This is what the article said…

The Heroes of You Know Who's Attack

Just three weeks ago today, He Who Must Not Be Named launched an attack on Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, which is said to be the wizarding world's safest location alongside Gringotts bank. The staff were locked in a trunk in the dungeons on the castle while the students were kept under siege in the Great Hall for a week. What would happen to them was undoubtedly the only question on anyone's mind. Would they die? Would You Know Who turn them into slaves? Little did they know that five teenagers would give the Death Eaters, who have now gone into hiding, a little more than they had bargained for…

Ronald Weasely, Hermione Granger, Draco Malfoy, Victoria Dreanadia, and of course Harry Potter saved the castle and the entire wizarding world from the most powerful forces of evil there are. The five friends were dragged, struggling madly to the top astronomy tower of the castle, and there they faced You Know Who in the flesh, along with three powerful Death Eaters who will remain nameless.

For no apparent reason whatsoever, You Know Who proceeded to attack the five teenagers and torture them without mercy. However these brave students put up a fight. "We knew what we had to do," says Harry Potter, the usual saviour of the day, "so we did it without complaint." Eventually, the battle resulted in young Victoria sacrificing her life for Harry, which spurred him and the others on to perform a joint Avada Kedavra curse on the Dark Lord, which sent him into exile again.

Luckily, Victoria Dreanadia mysteriously came back to life on the same night that she was killed. Her boyfriend Draco Malfoy claims that the reason is that her soul could not stand to be without his. "Yeah, well, I guess I do love her, and she loves me. I mean, all I had to do was tell her body that I would always love her, and her soul heard and came back to it. Though it doesn't take a genius to work out why," he adds with a grin. "I mean, I am the hottest boy in the school after all."

Upon interviewing the other three heroes, I found that although Hermione Granger clearly stated that she did not think that Harry was losing his touch since he was not the only one to save the ay this time, she did imply that he seemed a little bit cold towards that fact. "He talks to us and everything," Miss Granger said, "but he has been a bit funny towards us all ever since it happened. All this fame's probably gone to his head, and he doesn't want to share the limelight with anyone."

Ron Weasley, Harry's best friend and loyal side-kick also had something to say about him. "I guess before this happened I was kind of living in Harry's shadow," he said thoughtfully when I questioned him. "Not that it was my fault, Harry just kept getting better and better at everything, particularly in the Triwizard Tournament last year. But since this incident, I think I've finally equalled him. I'm not in his shadow anymore."

Harry was, when I interviewed him, a little reluctant to tell me anything. "I'm getting very sick of Voldemort," he said. "and I find this very traumatic. Of course Victoria copped the worst of it though. I mean, she was the one who actually died. And I'm very grateful to her, because without her I wouldn't be here talking to you today Rita."

Because of this sacrifice that Victoria almost made, people have begun to question her and Draco's relationship. After all, it takes a very good friend to sacrifice their life for someone else, and Draco and Victoria are in different houses, and rival ones at that. But when I asked Harry, he solemnly denied the truth of this matter. "She is completely in love with Malfoy," he said firmly. "and I only see her a very good friend. Although," he added, blushing a little, "she is very pretty."

Victoria was equally sure of her answer. "No, I love Draco. After all, he brought me back to life. But Harry is really nice and very handsome, and I do like him a lot," she said, giggling slightly.

I also asked Harry whether he had any proof that he was not having a fling with Miss Dreanadia. "Ha ha, you ought to see Victoria and Malfoy snogging in the hospital beds late at night when they think they can't be seen. Trust me, they are very much involved with each other."

But just how involved are they with each other? When I asked Draco this, he merely smirked and said, "She's a beautiful girl, and I adore her more than life itself. So, let's just say that we are very close."

Victoria was just as mysterious. "I'll make no comment on that matter," ahe said. "It's very, ummm…private."

This brings me to Victoria's interview. The main question that I asked her was what it was like to actually die. After much persuasion, she finally let on that, "all I felt was a kind of peaceful feeling, and then I heard Draco's voice behind me, so I think I turned back or something. All in all though, I think I was very brave." When I asked her whether or not she thought that she was the other four had done as much as her, she nodded eagerly and said that, "the others did as much as me, only I have faster reflexes and a lot more guts!"

Well, that is the story of the five teenage heroes from Hogwarts who defeated He Who Must Not Be Named yet again. Nut has You Know Who really gone? That is a fact that has not been discovered. But for now, we can rest easy since You Know Who is definitely weak and powerless once more.

Draco and Victoria simply stared at the paper, too shocked to move. "Draco," said Victoria eventually. "I swear on my life that I never said any of those things."

"Likewise Victoria," replied Draco. Just then they heard laughter, and Justin Finch-Fletchly, Susan Bones, and Hannah Abbot came around the row of books concealing them, and Justin held a copy of the Daily Prophet.

"Oh look girls, it's the two little love-birds! Should you two really be here alone together since your relationship is so…private?" smirked Justin to Susan and Hannah's giggles.

"Get lost, mud blood," growled Draco.

"You watch your mouth Malfoy," retorted Justin.

"Ooh, Draco's defending his little girlfriend's honour," simpered Susan.

"You heard him Bones. Now get lost before I do something I'll regret," threatened Victoria, pulling out her wand. The three Hufflepuffs scampered off. Victoria was well known for her bad temper. "Oh darling," sighed Victoria to Draco. "What are we going to do?"

"Deny everything and grin and bear it, I guess," he replied, shrugging. "I am dreading going back to class though."

"Likewise," said Victoria. "Well, I'd better go find Harry, Ron, and Hermione and see what they have to say." Just as she turned to leave, Draco stopped her.

"Victoria," he said seriously. "you're not really having an affair with Potter are you?"

Victoria suddenly kissed him passionately. "You know I'm not Draco. I love only you, and I am certain now that I always will." she said softly, and left the library.

Draco sat down on a chair and stretched out his legs. He was certain now that Victoria was The One for him; she was someone he could spend the rest of his life with. And this was only fifth year. If he already knew this now, then he must really love her. And now that she had told him that she loved only him, he had complete faith in her. She would never cheat on him, he knew she wouldn't. Maybe in their last year at Hogwarts they could start making plans…

Dear oh dear oh dear, wasn't Skeeter's article gross? I had fun writing it, hee hee hee. An I would just like to assure everyone that Victoria DOES NOT CHEAT ON DRACO. Ever. So you don't need to worry about that. And he doesn't cheat on her either. So will they start making plans? Well that's a couple of chapters off (I think), but who knows? Maybe they won't? You'll just have to read on to find out! And PLEASE review for me, I love you all!
