I am soooooo sorry I have made people wait this long to read my next chapter! I've just been really busy and then Fanfiction.net wouldn't let you login. I would also like to thank hikrau, Kay and AmandaPanda for reviewing my story and fizzyglitter for reviewing my story twice! Now here is the next chapter.
After shaking Percy awake Mr. and Mrs. Weasley told everyone that they would be getting the equipment for Hogwarts the next day (the owls did come).
Jenny and Ginny became friends even though Ginny was three years older than Jenny. Maybe this was because they were the only girls in the house besides Mrs. Weasley.
Later that night Harry went to sleep thinking about what happened to Hermione. I really wonder what happened to her Harry thought. Then Harry got an idea maybe it had to do with Rita Skeeter. To test his plan Harry wrote a note to himself to look at the Daily Prophet in the morning. He knew that she would get right back to work if she could. If she had done something to Hermione then an article of hers would be in the Daily Prophet.
The next day at breakfast Harry asked to see the Daily Prophet. Harry could hear Mr. and Mrs. Weasley saying stuff like "poor Harry" and "he never gets to read the wizarding newspaper".
Harry quickly scanned the newspaper. He saw a column about a disappearance. That's not good Harry thought. What if it had to do with Voldemort … Harry couldn't let his thoughts wander to Voldemort he had to search more. Then he found it, a tiny article:
The Muggle born witches opinions
By Rita Skeeter
After interviewing a muggle born teenager I have realized how fair it is to be against them. This particular 15 year old was against us normal people. She said we were unfair to them and they deserved better things than us. I totally think that all muggle born people deserve to be questioned and if they don't agree to what we want than put in jail. If you agree with me I am forming a group. You know where to contact me.
What a stupid article Harry thought. He showed it to Ron and said, "How did that even get in The Daily Prophet." Ron read it and muttered "Wanna bet that there are tons of graduates from Hogwarts that were in Slytherin working in the part that picks what articles they put in the Daily Prophet."
After that Harry pointed out the part about Hermione. Ron turned very pale. To Harry it had been an obvious fact that Ron had a crush on Hermione. As Harry expected Ron started cursing Rita Skeeter and muttering plans to save Hermione. Half of his "plans" included taking Hermione away from some castle guarded by 100 dragons and killing them all.
Harry told Ron that there wasn't much of anything they could do about it. They weren't prepared for what would happen at Diagon Alley.
~***************************************************************~
The Weasleys (Jenny is included in their family and Mrs. Weasley wasn't there) and Harry first went to the potions store (mainly to get it over with) and were greeted by the terrible smell of mixed up potion ingredients.
After buying what they needed there everyone split up except for Ron and Harry and Mr. Weasley and Jenny. When Harry and Ron had finished all their essential items (new dress robes were on the list and Ron was delighted with his new ones) they went to the Quiditch shop.
After gazing at the newest broom the Firebolt340 they walked outside into a terrible scene. Three Death eaters were holding a girl that looked a lot like "Hermione!" Cried Ron. It was Hermione. There stood Rita Skeeter in the death eater's outfit. That was how far she would go to be famous, become a death eater.
Harry was glad he had read a book on karate over the summer and practiced it. Catching on to stuff very fast was a big talent of his. By now he was like a black belt. He ran over and did his work until Hermione could escape.
He tried to run over and talk to Hermione but she ran away. Right before she left he noticed that it wasn't Hermione running away. She was a little shorter and had a little different face. This person looked a lot like Hermione and it was really …
Like my cliffhanger don't you. You will find out who it really is. Maybe you can already guess. Please review this story and tell me if I should fix anything!
