Thanks for the reviews! Any thoughts?

Sorry for not updating for a long time something got wrong with my account.

Can you guys give me 2 names for the 2 teams? I can't think of any,
it would be great if the names that you suggest have some sort of
meaning. I could also use some help with the activities that they
could do while on their camp. I thought that the 2 could get closer
because of the activities. I really need help. Thanks!

Title: Summer Camp

Chapter3: The Arrival

The rest of the journey was uneventful. The Gryffindors had managed to stay away from the Slytherins. They had no problem in doing so since the Slytherins were practically doing the same. The only time these 2 houses have contact with each other is when they had their meals. But on these times, there is a mutual understanding that goes on between them. They were ignoring each house. Its as if they made a barrier between them.

The target arrival of the ship is on a Saturday afternoon. They only have a few hours to settle in before lights out. The following day was given to the students so that they would be acquainted with the environment.

Hermione brought it upon herself to check out the surroundings on her own. After she chose a bunk and left her things, she went out of the cabin and started exploring. This way she'd have an advantage over her fellow students. She was wearing a tight fitting jogging pants and a white sleeveless shirt. She didn't wear her robe instead she wore a cotton baby blue jacket. She liked nature walks so she didn't mind breaking some rules. There's not much "nature" in Hogwarts and wanted to take advantage of this chance. The only "nature" that Hogwarts offered was the green room for the plants used in making potions and the Forbidden Forest. Somehow, these weren't appealing for nature walks. She went into the forest and absorbed its beauty. She took her wand so that she can see through the darkness since the light coming from the moon wasn't enough. As a Gryffindor, she feared nothing. Besides, she could easily take care of small animals like snakes and wild boar. Dumbledore wouldn't leave them in an environment that is dangerous for his students. She began walking aimlessly when a lake came into view. She walked towards it. What she saw next took her breath away. There was a small falls at the end of the lake. Growing up in a city doesn't let you see much of Mother Nature's beauties. She desperately strained her eyes to see the whole picture but could only see what her wand would let her.

'This place is amazing.' She looked closer to capture every piece of the lake but it wasn't enough. There was just not enough light. She was having trouble deciding whether to wait for the sun to rise or come back to her cabin and wake up really early to come back here. As much as her mind wanted to stay, her body just wouldn't let her. She needed to rest in a soft bed. The ride here was peaceful but still it was stressful in a sense. She needed proper sleep. She then decided to come back the next day.

~~~~~~~~~

There was a blonde woman who was crying frantically. She was holding something in her arms. She was being pushed by men wearing hooded cloaks. Their faces were covered by their hoods. These men were pushing her forcefully down a dark corridor. The woman looked like she was pleading but it seemed like her words reached no one. There was a man who was being held by other cloaked people as well. He was struggling and looked as if begging as well. The corridor led to a stone cold stairway. The couple was pushed down into what it seemed like a dungeon. The couple kept on begging to a man on top of the stairs but they weren't heard. The hooded people tried to take something from the woman. They guy tried to prevent these people near the woman. Then in a blink of an eye, the couple started to jerk and twitch. The couple started screaming from the horrible pain they were in.

That's when Draco Malfoy woke up. He had been having these dreams for quite awhile now. It all began when he turned 16 the previous year. Since then, he could picture the face of the woman suffering from excruciating pain. He would then wake up soaked in sweat as the woman's screams echoed in his ears.

He tried to decipher the dream's message but couldn't. Every time he had a dream he seeks out a place where he could be alone, far away from everything that belonged in his world. Since he's not in Hogwarts he needed to find a new spot. It was still really early and was it still dark and cold. He welcomed this kind of environment. He kept on thinking about the dream. He didn't were he was going; all that mattered is that he left the cabin where his mortal enemy sleeps. When he realized that he was far from the cabin, he noticed that he was inside the forest walking without direction. Suddenly, he heard some running water. He got curious and tried to look for the source. He saw lake with a small waterfall within. He got to the lake with the sun rising and the lake offered a better view to him than to Hermione. There were flowers surrounding the lake. If Hermione was overwhelmed when there was little light, imagine the beauty it cast when the sun shines down on it. Technically the place was beautiful. But as the saying goes, "Beauty is in the eye of the beholder." To him, the lake was anything but extraordinary. As a seeker, his eyes were trained to find what he was looking for. The lake did offer something that interests him. The falls caught his attention.

He began to walk towards it. He examined every detail; there was nothing out of the ordinary. He examined the curtain of water and he found what he looked for. There was a cave within the falls. It seemed like it was inviting him to come in. He welcomed the darkness and decided to stay there. 'This is a pretty nice hideout. I could escape Potter and his crew here. This will also be a good place for father to contact me.'

Draco found his sanctuary. The moment he came in, the rest of the world fades out and everything focused on him. The sound of the falling water was like a lullaby. Within minutes, he fell asleep.

~~~~~~~~~~

Hermione was all geared up to check out the lake. She was still deciding whether to tell Ron and/or Harry about it. The idea of telling them doesn't seem very attractive to her. She wanted a sanctuary all to herself. Harry maybe her best friend but he is also Ron's and sometimes she just needs to get away from Ron or Harry or both. She was excited since the professors gave them the day to acquaint themselves with the place and she knew exactly how she's gonna spend it. She won't let anything ruin her day.

Speaking of which, Professor McGonagall was rushing out of her cabin. When she spotted Hermione, she called her, "Ms. Granger!"

Hermione was the type of student that would do anything for her professors so she willingly stopped and faced McGonagall, "Yes professor?"

"I'm glad I caught you. I would like to talk you for a moment?"

"Me?"

"You and the rest of the leaders of the teams actually."

"I see." She looked a little disappointed. For one her plan was completely ruined. Another reason was she thought that McGonagall was gonna praise or make her do something special. She likes the attention.

"Would you please call them and meet me in the office?"

"What for?"

"Repercussions, safety and added rules."

Hermione nodded her head, 'Blast! How am I suppose to go to the lake now?' She didn't want to talk to Malfoy yet, she need to prepare her script first. She headed for the girls cabin of the other team. She looked for Padma Patil, Parvati's twin. She was one of the team's leader. She had no trouble communicating with her; they were in fact, in good terms. All she had to do now was to look for Malfoy.

'The sooner we meet, the sooner I can go to the lake.' She set on to go to Ron's cabin. She knocked knowing she' not allowed to come inside being it a rule.

Ron opened the door and saw the woman of his dreams, "Good morning sweets!" He leaned for a quick smack on her cheek.

"Morning Ron." She answered him as well as his kiss. "I need to talk to Malfoy. Where is he?" She looked beyond Ron's shoulder searching for a blonde guy.

Ron raised his eyebrow, "Why are you looking for the ferret?" He looked slightly jealous.

Hermione caressed his face reassuringly, "McGonagall asked for a meeting of all the leaders of the 2 teams. That's all." 'As if I'd really look for the slimy git!' She then remembered her oath on the Hogwarts Express.

Ron's face seemed to relax. "The ferret's not here."

Harry saw Hermione on the doorway and headed to her. "It looks like he left earlier. What no hello?" Harry teased his friend and opened his arms for an embrace.

"I need to find him. Can you guys help me find him?" The 2 guys looked at each other silently hesitating to waste their time looking for the ferret.

~~~~~~~~~~

When Draco finally woke up it was already time for dinner. He never had a peaceful sleep before. There is something in that place that made him at peace. 'I'll find that out some other time.' He was getting hungry. He set foot back to camp to get something to eat. If it was up to him, he would've stayed there.

~~~~~~~~~~

Upon arrival, he was welcomed by Pansy in a tight embrace. "What the."

"Mr. Malfoy! Where have you been?" Professor McGonagall surveyed him for injuries. Hermione was following her professor closely behind when she saw Malfoy.

"I just wandered around. Why?" Draco answered his professor.

"You know that no one is allowed to wander alone!" She sounded really upset. "Because of this incident I will pair you all starting with you Mr. Malfoy." She looked at him sternly. "Your partner will be Ms. Granger." She could sense the apprehension between the 2 students. "No Buts! What's done is done. Let's see if you can dare to break any rules." She then turned around and left the 2.

"This is all your fault Malfoy, you shouldn't have."

'Oh well, back to reality.' "If there's someone who should complain it would be me, mudblood!"

"Tell me, who in their right mind would want to be stuck with a little ferret like you!"

'LITTLE!?! I'll show you little!' He towered over her and glared, "Little!?! Are you sure mudblood?"

"Yeah she's sure!" Ron rushed to her side and towered in turn over Malfoy.

Draco isn't scared of Ron but he was taller than him. He stared at Hermione, "It's a pity the likes of you needs a fool like him to protect you to "survive" in our world." He turned around and left the 2 with Pansy following closely.

"Why that son of a #itch! I oughtta." Ron started following Malfoy.

"No Ron, you'll only get in trouble." Hermione clung to his arm to try to stop him from going after Malfoy. 'Why'd Ron have to interfere? He ruined my zone.' She stirred him away from the scene.
