Chapter 2: I think I'm in trouble.
The Three Broomsticks was a popular bar in Hogsmeade, the small wizarding town down the hill from Hogwarts. It was often filled with Witches, Wizards, Goblins and even a Hag or two.
"Hey Rosmerta" said Ginny as she stepped out of the fireplace and dusted herself off.
"Hey Gin, why aren't you at school already?
"I just came from my cousins place in America. I should really get up to the school. Do you think you could send my things up for me? I don't really want to carry them all the way up the hill."
"Sure Ginny, you just be careful. I've been hearing some strange sounds lately."
So Ginny grabbed a few weapons out of her bag. She stuck a dagger in her shoe, a sword in the sheath on her back and a stake in her pocket.
Halfway up the hill Ginny began to hear someone trailing her. He, judging by the footsteps, was about 10 meters back and catching up fast. Hearing him getting closer Ginny swung around, sword in hand ready to fight. The man suddenly turned into a vampire at which Ginny proclaimed, "Great! My kind of fight" and sent him stumbling into a tree with a flykick. Walking over to him Ginny finished him off by beheading him with the sword. Watching his head roll to the ground Ginny dusted herself off and strode up to the castle congratulating herself on her first fight alone.
Ginny had detected something was wrong the second she reached Hagrid's Hut. There was an air of dangerousness around. Treading carefully she reached the front steps. With a quick glance around she stepped up them and entered the Great Hall.
The door opened up with a bang and all eyes turned on her. Ready to give her note of apology from Giles to Professor Dumbledore, Snape and Dumbledore stood from their table with their wands out ready to attack. The other teachers followed suit. Ginny stepped back. "Jeez" she said, "I'm not that dangerous, am I?" She looked towards her brothers and Harry called out "Ginny! Watch Out!"
Ginny turned around and standing at the door was 3 vamps in fighting stance. She recognized them to be the friends of some vamps she dusted patrolling with Buffy and the Scoobies. One of them piped up; "We've come for our revenge. You dusted my girlfriend." "Oh! That whore was your girlfriend. I thought she belonged to the mutt you used to carry around?"
Before the teachers could open their mouths to cast a spell the vampires advanced on Ginny. Using her wandless magic she immobilized one of them and knocked the other out with a punch to the head. At this time the Professors had gagged and bound the unconscious ones. Turning to face the other vamp Ginny pulled out her dagger and advanced on him. Distracted by her brothers, who were screaming for the professors to do something, the vamp kicked it out of her hand and caught it. Groaning and muttering something about "Stupid overprotective brothers" she pulled out her sword and began to fight the vampire. Unbeknownst to her the whole hall was watching in anticipation. The Professors made a move to help her but she waved her arm and told them to stay back. Dumbledore, with an amused glint in his eyes, told all the teachers to stand back. Most of the teachers obliged but Snape chucked a spaz attack. "Dumbledore what are you thinking? She is a 5th year! She is going to be killed!" Dumbledore just responded by returning to the fight and gestured for Snape to do the same.
Ginny by this time was caught up in a serious fight with the vampire. Using a moment of vulnerability the vampire sandwiched Ginny between him and a wall. Using his body to propel herself Ginny flipped over the vamp and stabbed him through the back. Her dagger falling to the ground, she replaced it in her boot, pulled out her stake and poofed the vamp.
Ginny stood up and dusted herself off. Standing up she noticed the silence in the hall and then saw the squirming vamps on the floor. Striding over to them she saw the teachers standing guard. "Why haven't you staked them yet?" she asked, "They're not very nice you know."
Standing over the first one she looked over to Snape and threw him her spare stake. Looking the vampire straight in the eye she asked him if he was ready to die. He had a silencing spell on him so couldn't talk so he spat in her face. Wiping the vampire slag off of her she held the stake above its stomach instead of his heart. As she stabbed him her let out an inaudible cry.
"That's what you get for disrespecting Me.," she said.
Poking her tongue out at it in a very immature display she poised the stake above his heart and plunged it into his soulless body. As the vampire turned into dust she stood up and looked at the other vamp. That was the problem. She was still looking at it.
"Ummmm, Professor Snape? I don't mean to be rude or anything but why isn't that vamp dust yet?"
He looked at her questioningly, "Why am I supposed to kill this thing?" he asked
She replied, "Because if you don't I will."
Stepping away from the vamp dust he gestured for her to go ahead. Rolling her eyes she swiftly stepped over him and dramatically staked him. She had only just stood up when Dumbledore cleared his throat.
"Oh yeah" she exclaimed, "Here's my note from Giles for being late. I'm going to bed, I already ate and killing always takes it out of me."
Moving to walk up to her dorm Professor Snape stopped her. While Professor Dumbledore dismissed the speechless student body, Ginny and the rest of the professors trailed up to Professor Dumbledore's office. The trek up to Dumbledore's office was walked in silence. Ginny was walking in the centre and Professors Snape and McGonagall were flanking her either side, being led by Professor Dumbledore. When the finally reached the stone gargoyle Ginny sighed in boredom, receiving her an evil glare from the 2 professors. Dumbledore said the password "Acid Pops" and they climbed the winding staircase.
