Chapter 6

"Harry!" screamed one of the Indian girls, running over to Harry as he, Ron, and Ginny landed in the Indian cove.

Harry grinned at the girl. "Hi, Cho," he said to her. "I missed you," she said in a whiney-like tone, as she kissed Harry on the cheek. Harry turned very red.

"Who are they?" asked Cho, looking suspiciously at Ron and Ginny. Ginny stared right back at her. "Right!" said Harry grinning, "This is Ginny, and that's Ron," he said pointing to the two of them.

"Oh," said Cho giving a fake smile. "Well how come they are here?" she said in a sweet voice trying to sound interested. Ginny knew better.

"I met them when I was visiting Wendy, and they decided to come back here with me," Harry said. Then he addressed Ron and Ginny.

"You guys, this is Cho, the Indian Chief's daughter," Harry said. "Hi," they both muttered in response.

"Harry!" said two other girls running up to the group. "Oh hello you guys!" Harry said to the two girls. "Guys, this is Ron and Ginny," he said pointing at them. "Ron, Ginny, this is Pavarti and Padma."

"Hello," said the twins brightly. They were obviously a lot more welcoming than Cho was. Ron and Ginny both greeted them.

Harry walked over to Ginny. "Hey, Gin, you want me to show you around the place?" he said smiling at her. "Sure Harry, I would love that," Ginny said after glancing at Cho.

Cho butted in. Taking Harry's hand she said, "Ooohhhh Harry! Papa wants to see you! Come with me!" Harry gave Ginny an apologetic glance and then walked off with Cho. Cho turned around and smirked at Ginny.

"She's a lovely little picnic, isn't she," Pavarti said laughing. "She's so rude," said Ginny, who was hurt that Harry had left her to go with Cho. "I agree with you Ginny," said Padma.

"Would you two like a tour since Harry can't give you one?" Pavarti asked Ron and Ginny. "Yeah, sure," said Ron, who hadn't said anything since they had arrived. His ears were still slightly red from his embarrassment at Mermaid Lagoon.

The girls introduced Ron and Ginny to several of the Indian people, including their parents. Upon learning that they were friends of Harry Potter, the Indians treated Ron and Ginny like royalty.

Suddenly, drums rang out all across the cove, and the Indians started giving joyful calls. "What's going on?" Ginny asked Padma curiously.

"Oh it looks as if we're going to have a feast!" Padma said excitedly. "Cool!" said Ron, "because I'm really hungry."

Ginny and the other girls laughed. Then they passed the several teepees and entered the center of Indian cove where there were several logs which served as seats around a huge bonfire.

"Oh let's sit in the front!" said Pavarti, leading the others to a log seat very close to the bonfire. Ginny glared jealously as she saw Cho giggling and sitting next to Harry on a log.

"Don't worry about that Ginny," said Padma noticing where Ginny was looking. "Cho has just always had a thing for Harry."

Then a tall man who looked like Cho (Ginny guessed it was Cho's father, the Indian Chief) walked into the center of all the logs by the bon fire.

"Welcome, welcome my people!" he said addressing them all. "Tonight, I decided that we shall have a feast, because Harry Potter has decided to stay for dinner!" he announced, causing much cheering from the crowd.

Ginny looked around curiously, as did Ron. "Why is everyone here making such a big deal about Harry?" Ron asked. "Well he saved Cho one time when she fell in the water, because she couldn't swim," began Pavarti, but Padma interrupted her.

"Pavarti and I and some other girls think Cho did it on purpose just to get Harry's attention. He had conveniently been flying overhead, and then we all saw Cho sort of jump into the pool," Padma said smirking.

Ron and Ginny grinned. "Well, Cho has fancied him ever since. And he also helped us fight against the pirates one time, so we've all loved him because of that," Pavarti finished.

"We also would like to welcome the friends of Harry Potter," the Chief announced pointing to Ron and Ginny. They smiled timidly. Many Indians cheered.

"And now!" said the Chief, "we will feast, and we will dance in their honor!" There were many joyful cheers from the crowd of people.

A group of Indians started playing music, and many people got up to dance. Cho took Harry's head, and, leading him so they were in the vision of Ginny, she began dancing with him and smirking at Ginny since she did so.

After about an hour, Ginny started to get tired, so she sat down on a log and watched Ron laughing as he danced with some other girls, looking quite content. She also watched Cho and Harry, who were still dancing, and she tried not to, but could not help feeling a huge pang of jealousy.

After she couldn't take it any longer, she got up and walked over to Cho and Harry, hoping she could cut in and get a dance with him.

Cho saw her and "accidentally" knocked her onto the ground. Wincing, Ginny saw that her leg and arm were now cut since a branch had scraped them.

"Oh Ginny are you alright?" Harry said laughing. Ginny stood up angrily. "Oh, she's fine, just a bit clumsy," Cho said smirking.

Ginny glared at the pair of them, and then, getting teary-eyed, she started running off. "Ginny! Oh Ginny come on don't go!" Harry said chasing after her.

She managed to sneak out of the cove without anyone noticing but Harry. He tried to run after her, but a group of Indian girls stopped him and started dancing with him.

"No! Please! Excuse me I have to get through!" Ginny heard Harry saying. She began running faster so that if Harry did get through, he wouldn't catch up to quickly. Her dress was all cut up, and her hurt arm and legs were killing her.

Finally, she came to a hill and was able to see that the hideout was only a little way away. She started running towards it, but slipping on a rock, she lost her balance and began rolling down the hill.

"Ouch!" "Ah!" "Ow!" She screamed all the way down as she was constantly getting cut by twigs and branches. Then she slammed her head really hard on a rock. When she reached the bottom of the hill, where she was on the verge of unconsciousness, she ran into someone, but it wasn't Harry.

"Whoa! Are you alright?" said a boy's voice. Ginny knew she had heard it somewhere. She was lying on her stomach, so the boy turned her over.

"Ginny?!" said Michael, one of the lost boys, sounding surprised. "Look at you! Are you alright?!" Ginny didn't respond. She lied there for a few seconds until the world blackened around her.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

"Ginny....Ginny...wake up Ginny," said a distant voice. *Come on Ginny, wake up! You can do it!* said a voice in her head. *Wake up Ginny, come on, you can do it*.

Ginny opened her eyes and saw a blurred figure standing above her. "Harry?" she asked confused. A boy's voice laughed.

Ginny's vision came into focus, and she realized the figure was not Harry. "Michael? What? Where a-," Ginny began. Michael interrupted her.

"Don't worry, you're safe. You're in the Secret Hideout," said Michael, "are you alright Ginny?" Ginny looked around, and saw that she was in fact in the hideout, and she was lying in someone's bed, probably Michael's.

"Oh, yes, I'm alright I suppose. My head hurts a bit," she said responding to Michael's question. "Well I've got a bag of ice on it," said Michael, and Ginny noticed that he was holding it to her forehead. She also had a bandage on one of her legs and arms.

"What happened?" Ginny asked confused. "Well I was heading back to the hideout by myself because the other boys were still hunting but I didn't want to. And then I saw you rolling down the hill. You had quite a fall; it looked like it hurt," Michael said.

Ginny laughed. "Yeah, it did. That's about all I remember: the pain," she said. Michael laughed and then continued. "I asked you if you were alright, and you looked like you were in a lot of pain, but then you passed out, so I took you to Fleur and sh-," he said, but Ginny stopped him.

"Who's Fleur?" she asked curiously. "Oh, well Fleur is a powerful sorceress that lives up on the top of the mountain," Michael said pointing out the window, "and she's the Spirit of Wisdom and she is really powerful and magical. She knows everything, so I took you to Fleur to see what was wrong. She repaired your head injury with a couple spells, and then told me if I just patched your cuts up, you'd be fine. So then I carried you back here and put some bandages around your bad wounds." Michael pointed at Ginny's leg and her arm.

"Are they really bad?" Ginny asked him "Not that bad, you'll get better soon," Michael said encouragingly. Ginny smiled at him. "What?" he asked smiling back at her.

"Nothing, just, thank you. Thanks for helping me out. If you hadn't found me I could have lied there for hours with my head bleeding! I don't know what would have happened!" Ginny said.

Michael smiled at her. "Any time, Ginny. And you're welcome, I would help you no matter what," Michael said. Ginny blushed and smiled shyly.

"Thanks Michael," she said. Michael smiled at her. "Now you have to get some sleep, Fleur said you needed a lot of sleep," Michael said. Then he pulled up a chair right by her bed and put another bag of ice on her head. Her watched her sleep, and smiled to himself. *She looks like an angel when she sleeps,* he thought to himself as he sat there adoring her.

He was interrupted from his vigilance when Harry burst through the door looking extremely worried and out of breath. He saw Ginny lying in the bed and breathed a sigh of relief.

"Is she okay?" Harry asked Michael. Michael nodded. "She's perfectly fine. How did you know she got hurt?" he asked Harry curiously.

"Well I was walking back to the hideout and I saw a piece of Ginny's dress on the hill and at the bottom there was blood, but I couldn't find her. So what happened?" Harry asked.

"She fell down the hill and smashed her head," Michael told him. Harry paled. "She's okay though. I took her to Fleur and Fleur said she would be perfectly okay," Michael stated. Harry breathed another sigh of relief.

"She's not going to be happy with me when she wakes up," Harry said gloomily. "Why? What did you do?" Michael asked. "I'll explain later. Has Ron stopped by here? I don't know where he went. I don't think he knows Ginny got hurt," Harry said.

"No, he hasn't stopped here at all," Michael said. (Wonder where Ickle Ronniekins could be......) "That's strange. When are the other boys getting back?" Harry asked.

"They said they would be back in the morning. You know you can go to sleep Harry," Michael said. "No that's alright. I'll stay up with you to make sure Ginny's okay. I feel bad enough that it's my fault she got hurt," Harry said.

"Suit yourself," said Michael. Harry told Michael about why Ginny was mad at him, and then both boys spent the rest of the night watching over the girl that they were both smitten with. Although one did not know he was smitten with her yet....
