Harry dragged Ginny to a wide and elaborate bamboo cage. He opened the door and gestured for her to enter. She stayed firmly in place.
"Ginny." Harry's tone was exasperated "Please , get in the cage."
Ginny shook her head and hugged a tree tightly.
Harry rolled his eyes. "This isn't my fault, you know, I didn't plan this."
Ginny sighed "Just put me in the cage, lock it, and go off so I can escape."
Harry furrowed his brow. "But you're not."
"Just uncuff me, so I can get into the cage." Ginny extended her wrist.
Harry shrugged and removed the handcuffs. Ginny bolted, while Harry turned to unlock the cage.
Halfway through the forest she rammed into her brother. "Ginny?"
"Uh hi, bye!" She tried to escape but Ron caught her.
"I thought Harry got you, I guess I'll have to take you back." Ron began to drag the reluctant Ginny back towards her inevitable fate when Hermione burst out from their right.
She took one look and accessed the situation. She placed her hands on her hips and glared reproachfully at Ron. "Ron! What do you think you're doing? Let your sister go." She demanded.
"Oh okay." Ron looked at his shoes shamefully.
"Run Ginny!" Hermione and Ginny sprinted away in the direction Hermione had come. Ginny swerved to the left as Hermione continued straight.
She had apparently forgotten that Draco Malfoy had previously been following her, but she was quickly reminded as she halted abruptly when faced with the Slytherin himself.
"Um, correct me if I'm wrong, but I thought we were running the other way." Draco said raising an eyebrow. He shrugged, "But since you're here."
Hermione barely dodged his strong grasp as he swiped at her waist. She immediately ran to the right, Draco sped right after her.
Suddenly the ground beneath Draco's feet fell away. He landed in a crouch at the base of a dug pit. He stood to his full height and looked around him for an explanation.
He saw Hermione's head peer from 15 feet above. "Haha! I got you!"
Draco silently rummaged through his pack and pulled out a grappling hook connected to 20 feet of rope. He swung it over his head in order to propel the hook above him and rescue him from this concoction of Hermione's mind.
Hermione stared down at him in disbelief "No fair, you cheat! You just do!"
Draco pressed his index finger to his lips "Shhh, it's yoga time." The hook clung to a nearby rock as he began to scale his life saver.
"I don't believe this! How many weirdos wander around with rope and hooks!" Hermione was still ranting.
"You know, again the Malfoy guilt would haunt me if I didn't tell you to, I don't know, RUN!"
Hermione paid no attention as Draco accomplished his goal and stood mere feet away from her. He shrugged, he had warned her.
"And just because, hey!" Hermione jumped back as Draco tried to latch on to her wrist.
He didn't stop his advance and Hermione was backed into a tree. "I guess you're stuck." He mocked.
She glared grasping the bark of the tree. Her brow furrowed. The tree...
She suddenly spun around and shot up the tree. Draco sighed "You are aware that once up their you are doubly stuck and that I can climb trees."
"Yes, but you don't know my secret weapon." Hermione called down to him.
"This should be interesting." He stepped back to look at her high in the boughs of the oak she had topped.
Hermione breathed deeply "Okay, I am, a monkey!" With that she took a great leap from the tree, aiming for the hawthorn across from her, and missing her goal.
Draco stretched his arms forward. "Three, two, one..."
Hermione fell into his open arms. He pulled her against his chest tightly. Hermione plopped her head against his shoulder with a heaving sigh.
Draco pressed his nose to hers. "You want to know something?"
Hermione was stunned by the sudden close proximity and just nodded.
"You're not a very good monkey." He whispered.
Her shock turned to annoyance at his mocking. He laughed as he watched the change of expression and carried her away.
