Chapter 7
The next week or two was busy for Harry. Between trying to get the Quiditch team back up to par, being on his guard from the Slytherins, and all the homework the teachers so graciously gave out he was having trouble finding time to sleep.
One day Harry was walking up to the Gryffondor tower after supper when he saw Neiville leaning on the wall beside the portrait. He saw Harry and hurried over to meet him.
"Harry, I was walking back from supper and I was going to see if I'd left my Transfiguration book in class when I heard Malfoy and a couple of other slytherins talking in Moaning Myrtles bathroom," he said in a hurry.
"Well?" Harry said wondering what this was over.
"Harry they were talking about you," he replied back.
"Neiville, I've known for years that Malfoy and his two goons have talked about me behind my back so what makes this so important," Harry said.
"They were talking about attacking you one day," Neiville said.
"What?" Harry replied back stunned.
"They were talking about they were going to put track you by hooking a tracer to your wand and waiting to your alone in a hallway and then attacking you," Neiville replied.
"Oh," Harry said now that he understood "Neiville you act as normal as you can and stay away from Malfoy and do not for whatever reason tell anyone about this, even Dumbledore."
"Sure, whatever you say," Neiville agreed.
"Do you know if Ron or Hermione were up in the tower?" Harry asked.
"Hermione is and Ron said he had to go to the library," Neiville replied back.
"When did you see him?" Harry asked back.
"Well, he was on the same floor when I heard that," Neiville said.
"When it was going on?" Harry replied back in a hurry "I have to know this Malfoys after not just me but everyone close to me."
"Yeah," Neivlle replied "he walked off to the library and then I jumped behind a tapestry when I heard Malfoy and them come out."
"Harry there's also another thing," Neiville said nervously.
"What?" Harry asked quickly.
"They were talking about how they had already hooked a tracer on Ron," he said looking at the floor.
"Oh no," Harry said before he took off in a sprint down the hallway.
He ran as fast as he could down the hallways towards the library. He practically jumped down steps and finally reached there in record time. The library appeared empty.
"Flexias," Harry muttered hooking hooking a tracer to Rons wand.
Harry's wand pointed to the right of Harry pointing to Ron. Harry ran off in the direction. Harry followed the direction of his wand through the many bookshelves of Hogwarts finally he got there. Malfoy was standing over Ron. Ron was convulsing on the floor with Malfoys wand pointed at him. Malfoy had casted the Crutaceous Curse on Ron.
"Stupefly," Harry called pointing his wand at Malfoy.
Malfoy fell stunned to the ground. Harry ran over and snatched Draco's wand out of his limp hand. He ran over to Ron and kneeled beside him.
"Ron, Ron wake up, wake up," Harry said frantically trying to bring his best friend back to consiousnes.
Ron opened his eyes heavily and looked up at Harry "Harry that stupid girl Malfoy cast the Crutaceous Curse on me."
"I know," Harrry said gladly that his friend was conscious "are you all right?"
"Well, besides the searing pain running through ought my body I'm in great shape," Ron replied back jokingly.
"Harry," he heard Hermione yell behind him.
Harry turned around quickly to see Malfoy on his feet with Ron's wand grasped in his hand. Harry brought his wand up quickly and yelled "acio wand."
Ron's wand zipped out of Malfoy's hand into Harry's empty one.
"Locomoter Mortis," Harry said putting the simple but powerful spell on Malfoy.
Malfoy fell to the ground stiff as a log. Harry heard Ron say behind him "bought time someone put a spell on him."
"Hermione go get Madam Pomfry and Dumbledore," Harry said looking at her "look as inconspicuous as you can."
"No need to," Harry heard a voice say.
Then Dumbledore stepped out behind a bookcase. He studied the scene carefully.
"No need to go get Madam Pomfry," he said "he'll be fine with some rest and food."
"You have to do something about this Proffessor," Harry spat out "you can't let Malfoy wander around cursing innocent students."
"Calm down my boy I don't intend to," Dumbledore said back "I've been afraid for years that some past Death Eaters would put their kids up to carrying their evil ways out at the school now we have proof."
"Can you get him to the tower without looking to conspicuous?" Dumbledore asked.
"I think we could," Harry said with a nod from Hermione.
"I'm ready for anything," Ron said behind them just as he left consiousness once again.
"Never mind then I'll get him to the Infirmary," Dumbledore said "you all hurry up to the common room and if I'll need you I'll get you."
"Go on now," Dumbledore said "wait Harry give me Mr.Malfoy's wand."
"Sure," Harry said handing him the wand.
Then Harry and Hermione turned around and started walking.
