"What do you want?" The brown-haired girl in front of him snapped. Draco Malfoy stood in an unused hall with Hermione Granger. The boy had pulled her away from her studies, and she was not very pleased with that.
"And take that invisibility spell off. I feel like you're going to stab me or something," Hermione said. She knew very well that it was a possibility that he might, but she sensed the urgency in his voice. "Don't scream," he said before saying the counter spell. Hermione gasped and put her hands over her mouth when she saw the battered girl in front of her in Draco's arms.
"What did you do to her?!" Her words were a harsh whisper and she started trying to take the young girl away from Draco, but he pulled out of Hermione's reach.
"I did nothing. I found her. I'll deal with whoever did this. But, I need you to heal her," Draco said to Hermione. She looked a bit doubtful. "Please... I can't take her to the nurse. Pansy did this with... the cruciatus curse. I have a feeling Ginny has to do with something she shouldn't be dealing with," Draco said quickly.
Hermione nodded. She knew that he would answer no more questions she had to ask, so she said, "All right. I'll do it. You have to take me to her room though... I'll need to heal her in a bed."
Draco nodded and walked swiftly towards the Slytherin common room in the dungeons. The brown haired girl followed him, checking to make sure her wand was in her pocket.
As they entered the Slytherin common room, all fell into silence as they saw who entered. No one questioned about the bleeding girl who was in Draco's arms, nor about the Gryffindor who followed.
Pansy was standing in the corner with some of her friends, the ones who had done this to Ginny. She looked over, and a small smile curled up onto her lips. She whispered something to her friends before they quickly walked off. Draco glared at them. Hermione, putting two and two together, as she often did, figured those were the people who had done this to her friends younger sister. She nearly lost her footing when they reached the stairs, because she was so lost in her thoughts that she hadn't seen them.
There were a few snickers as they started to walk up the stairs, but Hermione ignored them. She had come to do something, and she would do what was asked of her.
Draco swung open the door to Ginny's dorm room which she shared with a few other girls. "Out," he snapped at the few girls who were there. Some went out quickly. Others looked at him for a moment, then followed their Conrads. No one wanted to be by The Dragon when he was angry.
Hermione shut the door behind her when the rest of the girls were out. Did Draco really hold so much power over his piers? She didn't have time to ponder that. She walked over to Ginny's bed and sat down. Draco laid the small girl on the bed gently, then looked at Hermione. "I'll leave her to you. I have someone to deal with," He said.
Hermione could tell from his tone of voice that he was not pleased with what had happened, so she nodded. For some reason, she thought that she could trust him to attend to what had happened. Maybe it was because he seemed to angry about it, or because she just wanted to believe it.
Hermione started to heal the girl in front of her, and she soon heard the door shut behind her. She healed Ginny late into the night, and fell asleep on the floor when she finished.

A/N: Sorry people about the short chapter. But hey, the next chapter should be up soon. I might start writing this in school too, so the chapters will be updated quickly. Also, at the moment my Internet doesn't work, so you might be getting three chapter updates at the same time instead of two. (This one and the last one being two. The third would be the next chapter.) Please Review, and thank you for reading. Blessed be.
