As they were walking ou tof the room some one who had overheard their converstion stepped out from behind a curtain. Fred took a look at his brother and sighed "Well Ron we have a predicament here don't we." As he walked out he wondered what he should do with his new found information.

Meanwhile Hermione and Harry walked back to the Gryffindor common room.

"Harry this is what is going to happen, get everyone out of your room and get Ginny to come up there with you. I will be hiding behing the curtains and I will jump out and put a mind altering charm on her just powerful enough to make her forget the past few days."

"Yeah, but then she is going to wonder what she is doing on my bed; alone with me."

"Listen, Harry I am not finished yet. Then she will kinda wake up and she will say 'what an I doing in here' you just say 'Silly you fell asleep on me' and go on like nothing happend and ya'll going out is a normal thing. I know when you say ya'll are going out she will not question a thing. She is not that bright Harry. Ok."

They walked up to the fat lady (pumpernickle bread) and Hermione went to get into her hiding place.

As Hermione walked into Harry's room and all of a sudden was knocked to the floor and wrapped in a blanket. Someone muttered something and she was out like a light. She did not know that some one was there waiting for her.

As Fred carried her to his room Harry was off looking for Ginny.

Hermione woke up a few hours later and was surprised to see herself tied to a chair in a strange room. After she got over her groggy feeling she looked around a little bit.

"Ohhh it is nice to see that you are finally awake. I put a little too much omf in that sleeping spell. What are you looking at me like that for?"

"Fred what am I doing in here, and what are you talking about sleeping spell...."

She trailed off and thought of Harry if it was true she had been out for hours what did Harry do with Ginny. She hoped that he paid attention in class when they reviewed mind altering charms in class a few weeks ago and did it himself. But the biggest question on her mind this second was why did Fred knock her out and have her tied to a chair in his room?

As he looked at her menaceingly she knew something was up and it was not good. She would have to think fast to get herself out of this one.
