(A/N: I'm changing the Forest and Earths around a bit...Pansy Parkinson is
going to be the Forest Guardian and Blaise Zambini the Earth. I'll edit the
last chapter around some, okay?)
Ginny, Lavender, and Hermione walked together to Hogsmeade that weekend. They had to search for some special robes, called Hidden Beauty Robes, that had just came out...guaranteed to hide all kinds of fat...including but not limited to: Natural, Obese, "Now that's just SCARY" and Pregnancy Fat. They were all going to get themselves seven pairs each. Courtesy of Draco and Harry, of course...and in Lavender's case, her dad. The Weasleys were doing a bit better money-wise but Lavender refused to let Ron pay for her robes...and vise versa with Draco and Harry albeit pertaining to Hermione and Ginny. (Meaning basically that Lavender wouldn't let Ron pay while Draco and Harry refused to let Hermione and Ginny pay, for those of you that my cryptic chapter has confused.)
So there they were, walking into Madame Malkin's... (ARGH! I boxed up my Harry Potter books last week *Horror of all horrors* and I can't remember what the name of the clothing shop in Hogsmeade is! If someone could inform me, I'd appreciate it.) ...And looking around at robes. Hermione heard a sound behind her and turned to see Pansy Parkinson cornering Ginny. She frowned and drew her wand, not wanting any trouble but ready for it all the same.
"Well, well, Weasley. Finally captured Potter, have you? Tell me, how does it feel to know that one of Voldemort's closest DeathEaters is dating your best friend?" Pansy hissed. "How does it feel to know that, unlike some of us, he chose to have his arm branded with the dark mark?"
"It feels fine." Hermione stated, calmly, from behind the Slytherin girl. She jolted, feeling a strange energy emitting itself from the Slytherin Prefect. "How does it feel to know that you're a wannabe who can't get anything now that Draco's found something better?"
"Actually. Draco and I never did anything." Pansy smirked, superiorly. "So that's not gonna work."
Hermione arched an eyebrow as something the Slytherin had said before clicked in her mind. "Wait...so you're not a DeathEater?" She saw Pansy shudder.
"HELL no!" The Slytherin snapped, nearly throwing up at the thought. "Well...not by choice...Daddy forced me...I'm a..." She glanced around, as if someone was watching. Then she saw Draco and whispered in Hermione's ear. "I'll tell you later."
Hermione looked at Ginny, then at Pansy. She didn't know whether the Slytherin was telling the truth or not...but something about the girl told Hermione that she was. Just to be sure, Hermione nodded and said "Alright...meet me at the portrait of the five-year-old blonde twins...seven-o'clock." She turned and, after making her purchase, ran to join the others.
Pansy looked over at her boyfriend, Blaise Zambini. "What the hell?" She shrugged. "Not like I've got anything to lose by trusting those goodie goodies."
He nodded. "And who knows, Pansy...they might help us out." He smiled and slid an arm around her as she gathered her own Hidden Beauty Robes up and they proceeded to make their way out of the shop.
