Chapter 11: The Costume and an Evil Plot
By: Fate's Angel
***The Day before the Ball***
Ginny took a look at her costume. It was hanging on the side of her bed, lifeless. The costume looked beautiful, but a bit revealing. It was made up of a white skirt with a gold front piece on it, a gold backless bikini along with a gold headdress. Ginny was suppose to be Akasha, The Queen of the Damned.
Sarah thought it would be a cool costume. But in retrospect Ginny was going to get a lot of looks from the opposite sex and her brother.
Elsewhere an evil plot was brewing in a deep dark cave…
Arthur Hendrix was a respectable man. He had money, a good job, a wife. But Arthur has a deep secret, he's a deatheater.
Well, a reluctant deatheater. His family has been in this deal for ages. He was one of the most important ones. So important and valuable he could replace Lucius! Arthur threw that thought away; he was Lucius's partner after all. He couldn't betray him.
Since Arthur was second to Lucius, he knew everything. The plot with Lucius's kid and some girl at the Halloween Ball. Oh yes, he was going to watch in guilt.
***The Day of the Ball***
The day of the ball was chaos especially in the morning. The vampire band arrived during breakfast, setting up their electrical equipment. Now you wonder, how can muggle electrical things, work in the magical world? Well, a Wizard company made these ofudas (Japanese magic paper things…I kind of forgot) with pure magic in them. You slap them on to something muggle and they work! But they can only last for a certain number of hours.
The band setting up was chaotic enough. Many students 'ohh'ed and 'ahh'ed at the musical instruments. And hauling a drum kit from out side was enough trouble.
Other students were making lat minute preparations, make-ups, break-ups, or trying to find a date.
Ginny wanted to go alone. Many guys didn't take the hint and bugged her with the question. She was tempted to suck them dry. But that would be too messy…
Draco was having the same problem only a little different.
Every girl who try to ask him would get scared off by Pansy. This was a good thing and a bad thing. The good thing was girls stopped asking. The bad thing was Pansy.
When the sun had set students were frantically getting ready. Ginny didn't have any trouble. Her hair hung down with small little bags on the side of her face. Ginny's roommates gasped and complimented her left and right.
She peered out of her dorm room to see if Ron was anywhere. Only Neville and Seamus were chatting in the Commons. She snuck downstairs and out the portrait door. Ginny sighed in relief when she didn't get caught.
She half walked, half ran to the Great Hall. Many stopped and gawked at Ginny. Ginny was a little embarrassed at this attention, but she kept her stride.
As she got near the entrance the noise of people swelled. The festivities were beginning. As she opened the door, the ball began…
Whoo Pee! A chapter done! Sorry about the shortness. If you know a little about Japanese culture or watch way too much anime you would know what an ofuda is. Okay anyway, isn't Ginny's costume cool! Okay next time, I promise, a longer chapter. I swear. Please review!
