Hey everyone. I know I took forever to update but my computer is being a bitch so bare with me. Do review, I get very conscious of what I write and I never think its good enough or what I'm doing wrong unless you tell me so tell me.
Without further ado...
Chapter 8
Ginny sat up, looking around. 'Malfoy has to have something to eat around here! He's 17, rich, and a guy... teenage guys are always hungry. If I were Draco Malfoy where would I stash my vittles?' She started to sigh but smelled something oddly familiar. Sniffing around under the bed she found a hidden shelf in the underside of the bed. 'Ok so being a cat isn't all bad; the increased senses are definitely nice.' She thought. 'If this is permanent – no it can't be permanent.'
Luna walked from Green House 4 towards Hagrid's Hut. Jordan didn't say anything when she started off in the wrong direction; he just grabbed her hand and complained about being late.
"I wonder what Hagrid has for us today?" Jordan pondered out loud.
"What do you mean?" Luna asked befuddled.
"Well you know as well as I do, Hagrid's taste in creatures is not normal, or for that matter entirely safe." Jordan explained. Seeing this conversation was going nowhere he changed the subject. "So anything new on that box your parents sent you?"
"Box? Oh the Box!" "Luna covered quickly. "Nope. I have no idea what it is so I'm going to chuck it in my wardrobe and forget about it."
"Well you'll only have to wait till Saturday. They said you could open it on your birthday right?"
"Uh, yea they did." Luna said quickly. "Are you sure we can't just skip this one class? I don't want to get hurt by anything Hagrid might think is cute."
"You're going to class. What's with you? I know you're not a 'good girl' but you'd never ditch class, especially not Hagrid's."
"Fine, I'll go to class but I'm not happy, just so you know." Jordan didn't have a chance to ask anymore they'd reached the rest of the class. Luna looked at a large enclosure. Inside was what looked like white scaled dogs. 'Dogs.' Luna hissed and one of the creatures let out a bawl like she'd never heard. It sounded like three different voices singing in rumbling unison. Luna didn't like the sound.
"Alrigh, settle down. Now class, these beauties are called Nenstras. Can anyone tell us anythin 'bout Nenstras?" Hagrid looked around the class. "Ah Ginny. What 'bout you?"
"Um, sorry I don't know a damn thing about these mongrels." Luna announced. Hagrid looked flabbergasted. Ginny had never said anything like that about a magical creature before.
Jordan looked back and forth from Hagrid to Luna before quickly saying,"Um, Professor Ginny hasn't been feeling quite herself today."
"Alrigh' but Ginny, behave or I'll be forced ta give ya a detention. Now Nenstras are righ' useful to the Ministry. Aurors use 'em to find blokes in disguise. Grea' round muggles too. When a muggle gets near one o' these chaps they sprout fur and take on the o'perance of a muggle Siberian 'usky. Now you're goin' to split inta pairs. Each pair grab a Nenstra. Now r'member these pups hunt by aura and instinct, they can spot a bad egg so if they growl at ya back 'way slowly and don' make any suddin moves."
Jordan and Luna paired up; Jordan went to the enclosure and returned with one of the larger beasts. Upon seeing Luna the Nenstra began barking loudly and growling, baring its teeth. Luna jumped back hissing. Jordan struggled to control the Nenstra but lost his balance and fell letting it go. He quickly yelled for Hagrid while Luna ran around in circles screaming like a banshee. "Get this mutt away from me. Oh Bollix!" The Nenstra jumped up and Luna instinctively kicked the offending animal in the chest sending it flying into a large tree trunk. The Nenstra whined and collapsed at the base of the tree, unconscious. Luna growled and brushed herself off.
"Uh, where'd you learn to do that, Gin?" Jordan asked astounded.
Luna just glared at Jordan and hissed, "This wouldn't have happened if you'd just let me skip!" At this the bell rang and Luna stormed up to the castle to History of Magic.
Luna didn't stay awake long in class. Professor Binns was a floating lullaby. Luna dreamt of the Nenstra, and Jordan watched as her fingernails scratched lines in the desk.
Harry, Ron, and Hermione walked through the halls toward the Common Room. Their topic of discussion was Ginny. Hermione was trying to play Ref but to no avail. Harry was angry at Ron because he wouldn't listen to Harry and Ron was mad at Harry because he'd lied to Ron.
"But I didn't lie to you, I just didn't tell you." Harry said.
"But not telling me is just as bad and lying about it. She's my sister!" Ron countered.
"Look I don't know why you two are so far around the bend about this. Ron who would you rather have date your sister, some shmuck you don't know or your best friend who you trust." Hermione tried to placate them.
"Trust to be noble with my baby sister you mean?" Hermione nodded. "Hermione, you've met Harry's previous girlfriends... you don't honestly think he's that chivalrous do you?" Harry looked affronted.
"What do you mean has she met any of my previous girlfriends? They're all fine young ladies." Harry beamed.
"Yeah ok! Sure what about Trista? Jess? Lorette? Cho? Oh and my personal favorite D. Honestly Harry, who in Hades has a name like D.? Come on it's stupid really, and she was real bitch and a trollop. You really could have done better mate. It just goes to show that-"
But Hermione didn't let him finish. She cleared her throat and shot Ron a rather nasty look that clearly meant "Shut it, before I do." "Ok we get the point but still. Ginny did like Harry until her 4th year and she likes him again now. Maybe" She caught a glare from Ron. "JUST MAYBE, they'll be good together. I mean what's the worst that can happen?"
"You really don't want to know the worst that's happened in the past." Harry said referring to the pregnancy scare he had with Jess that thankfully Ron didn't know about right now.
"You know you're not helping your own case." Hermione sighed before turning and facing the Fat Lady.
Ginny had hit the jackpot! Draco had more comfort foods stashed under his bed than a 16 year old girl with a lethal dose of PMS! She unwrapped a couple of chocolate frogs and spent the next 10 minutes chasing the hopping morsels around the room. When she'd caught them she started to pig out. 'These taste a lot different than I remember. Not bad but different.' After finishing off 3 Chocolate Frogs 2 Cauldron Cakes and 4 Liquorice Wands Ginny could just barely see her paws over her enlarged stomach. She laughed as she wiggled what would be her toes, and lying on her back she took one claw and carved 'Ginevra Weasley-Gryffindor' and below it she marked 4 tally marks and then 'Draco Malfoy-Slytherin' and scratched 2 tally marks, giving him credit for getting into her room undetected by her entire House. She lay there for a few minutes wondering why he was even in her dorm, and what was the deal with his dream earlier? Who was he talking about? She'd heard her name but he most definitely wasn't talking in his sleep about her. 'Ginevra Weasley don't you even think it. No I won't stand for this! You will not consider Draco considering You. In fact as your brain and your control system I am not even going to allow you to call him Draco... No he is Malfoy, always Malfoy!' 'Oh shut it you limey bint! You're all talk you know that! Ginny dear, don't listen to that stick. If you want him to be Draco, make him Draco.' Her heart chimed in. 'Matters of love-' 'I am not in love with Draco Malfoy. That would be suicidal! Sorry but it just can't be.' Ginny thought of her own free will. 'Just understand love, you can't control what's to come.' 'Watch me!' Ginny thought firmly.
Jordan escorted a very drowsy Luna out of their History of Magic class. By the end of the class the words 'No Escape' were etched permanently into the desk. Just as they rounded the corner that strange girl reading the upside- down Quibbler walked past and collided head on with Luna. Looking up the girl gasped.
"Who the... what the... Who are you?" she asked looking perplexedly at Luna.
"Luna this is Ginny. You know, Ginevra Weasley." Jordan intervened. "She doesn't look that different from last year does she?"
"No. No, no, no, no." This Luna girl kept repeating her ramblings as she quickly scurried away, leering back every few seconds.
"Well that was something else." Jordan said but was silence from any other thoughts by the look on Luna's face. She looked absolutely dumbstruck, and what looked like worried? "Hey, you ok?" Jordan tapped Luna on her shoulder.
Luna jumped about 2 feet in the air, snapping out of her reverie. "What was she talking about?" Luna thought out loud.
"I don't know but she definitely got lost quick, didn't she?" Jordan mused. Her stomach rumbled. "I think you tummy is sending you messages." He put his ear to her naval. "Uh huh, yeah... got it. Your insides demand sustenance. Preferably now." He grinned.
"Whatever." She huffed.
As they headed down the stairs, Luna Lovegood stared out a crook in the wall. Something wasn't right.
Malfoy sat at the Slytherin table in the Great Hall. Looking down at his watch, it read 5:58. Glancing around the hall he saw no sign of the kitten. As if on cue she walked in trailed by a guy around 6 ft. Draco peered at his watch again and started counting down. '10..9..8..6' he looked up at Luna and they made eye contact. '4..3..2'
Ginny quickly exited from under Draco's bed. Once again the feeling as if her innards were a raging fire, Ginny mewed and mewed. Soon her mews turned slowly to screams.
Luna's eyes got round and she turned and streaked out of the Great Hall, Jordan closely in tow.
"Ginny! Hey, where are you going?!" Jordan yelled after her. Luna just ran faster. She ducked into the nearest classroom. Standing at the door Jordan watched in horror as hair sprouted from every pore on Luna's body.
"Interesting, very interesting." Came a voice from behind. Jordan turned to see Draco Malfoy standing just behind him. Disgusted Jordan stepped in the room and slammed the door in Draco's face. Turning back to Luna he found a small ball of fur amongst the discarded clothes.
"Shit! Gin, what happened?" he grabbed the clothes from the ground and scooped up the mewing kitten. "You look like your cat." He said and exited the room. Thankfully Draco was gone. Looking around for signs of life and seeing none, Jordan rushed up to the Gryffindor Common Room.
Ginny lay panting on the floor, she groaned, just realizing how cold Draco's room was with Luna's fur. Ginny wondered how the hell she was going to get out of here unnoticed, especially as she looked in the mirror at her in her beautiful birthday suite. "Oh Shit." I was great to hear her voice again, but that was beside the point. She was in the buff in DRACO MALFOY'S room. Grabbing under the bed she reached for the first thing she felt, a light silvery cloak... the same one she'd seen earlier. Throwing it over her shoulders she gasped when her body disappeared. "Leave it to Draco to have an invisibility cloak." 'Wait Draco? Where'd that come from?' Slipping the hood over her head she opened the door and made her way through the Slytherin Common Room, glad to be walking on two feet again. As she got to the entrance it opened revealing an amused looking Draco Malfoy.
"I wonder what Virginia Weasley is doing with her catty self right now." He smirked at his own corny-ness.
Ginny stood there stunned before running out of the open entrance. 'So it was Malfoy huh? He's dumber than I'd thought. He doesn't even know my real name either. What a prick! Well he'll learn soon enough not to cross Ginevra Weasley.'
Ginny made her way up the stairs and through the corridors before meeting the Fat Lady. She stood for a moment trying to remember the new password; they'd changed it after the 'Slytherin Break-In'. 'Freezer Burn, Frozen Chocolate, Oh!' "Chocolate Burn!" She piped up... The Lady didn't even look up from her conversation with her neighbor, only swung open to reveal the common room. She rushed up to her room.
As Ginny opened her door and flicked the hood from her head she saw Jordan holding Luna as if to inspect her.
"Um, Jordan what are you doing with my cat?" Ginny asked warily.
Jordan's head snapped in her direction. "Ginny!!!!" he ran to her and enveloped her in a bear hug. "Uh, Gin, where'd you get the invisibility cloak?"
"I missed you too. I got it from Dra-Malfoy's room." She said, exasperatedly. "So what all did she do?
"Plenty! But wait a tick.. You were in Malfoy's room... for how long?"
"Pretty much all day; did you know he has a snack stash on the under side of his bed?"
"No. So hold up, you were in Draco Malfoy's room all day and the juiciest thing you have to say is he has a 'snack stash'?"
"Well no but you're not going to believe this." Ginny started relaying everything that had happened during her day.
Ron, Harry and Hermione sat for a moment talking about Ginny's rush out. It had been a while and they were starting to get worried. Harry didn't want to say anything to get himself in trouble, and anything could set Ron off so Harry kept his mouth shut. Soon and awkward silence fell over the trio. Ron, still angry with Harry, wasn't looking anywhere near Harry's direction.
Hermione finally snapped. "Hippocrites the lot of you! I swear if I weren't so in love with you," standing, she stabbed Ron in the chest with her nail, "and you weren't one of my best friends I'd drop you both in a second." She huffed and turned, storming out of the Great Hall, leaving a dazed Ron, a shocked Harry, and a bemused student body.
Harry snapped out of his shock to hear Ron sputtering something that sounded a lot like "Sh-sh-sh... M-m-me... Sh-sh-sh..." and it continued like that until Harry reached over and poured the rest of Ron's pumpkin juice on his head. Ron's eyes got really wide as reality hit him. Hard. He turned on Harry, grabbing Harry's robes in his fists. "Harry!!! She likes me!" Ron whistled.
"Um Ron, I think she said she more than likes you, mate. She said something about love." Harry grinned.
"L-l-l-l-l-l-l-l-l-l-l-l- Love?" Ron asked hollowly. The shock starting to wear off, a small smile crept on his face. "She loves me." he whispered to himself. Harry just barely heard him but he got the jist of it.
"So, uh, when are you going to ask her out?" Harry asked. This just sent Ron back into La La Land. Harry smiled at his fork and finished his dinner.
Draco stepped in the doorway of his room. It was a mess. Ok so it was only a bunch of wrappers on his floor but in his room that was the equivalent of a bombshell. But that wasn't the problem. 'Who the Hell has been in my room? How long were they here? How long have they been gone? What did they want? What did they take?' He looked around his room; nothing appeared out of place other than the wrappers on the floor. 'They raided my room for my sweets stash?' he thought unbelievingly. Draco took out his wand and with a wave the offending items flew into the trash bin in the corner. Draco took a seat at his desk and grabbing a roll of parchment started on his Potions Homework.
Draco's concentration was wavering and his attention span short. He looked around the room, his eyes resting on a talisman tucked under his bed. He'd been born with it in his left hand. He'd always thought of the 'G' engraved in it had meant greatness but as he looked at it now all he could think was Ginny.
Ginny finished the tale with her stealing Draco's cloak, and hearing him practically admit he was responsible for everything.
"So it was him? He was acting weird when you, er she changed." Jordan thought out loud.
"Yep."
"But he wouldn't stoop that low. Yea he would. Damn, I should have known something was up, especially when Luna told off Flitwick."
"What? No way!" It was too much. First off, turning into a cat isn't the first thing on her to-do list this morning, then being trapped in Draco Malfoy's room for the entire day while her cat waltzed around in her skin. Plus finding out that Draco might have the other half of her talisman. 'It's been a long day.' "Um, Jordan I know there's soo much to talk about but I could use a nice back rub." She shot him puppy eyes. "Please?"
"Oh not the face. You know I can't refuse the face." Ginny started to pout. "Oh alright!"
"Yay!!!" Ginny pulled off the rest of the cloak before quickly restoring it to her herself... "Uh, Jordan can you turn around?"
"Oh sure." He turned and she got dressed, throwing the invisibility cloak under her pillow.
Draco resigned trying to complete his homework. Throwing his quill down he prepared for bed, stripped down to his boxers and crawled in bed. Just as he reached the perfect position, temperature, and was about to fall asleep some thing in his stomach dropped. Draco groaned. He had to pee. Not moving he weighed his options. He hadn't wet the bed since... well ever. Then again there was no way he was going to get to sleep easily if he didn't get up. 'When in doubt, the bladder wins out.' Draco thought on his way to the bathroom.
"Ok you can turn back around." She was in a bra and a pair of black flairs that were huge at the bottom. She went to lay down on her bed. Jordan lay by her giving her a massage. She fell asleep there. Jordan kissed her shoulder and tucked her in.
"I hope Malfoy has life insurance, cause he's going to need it when she gets done with him."
Hey everyone. I know I took forever to update but my computer is being a bitch so bare with me. Do review, I get very conscious of what I write and I never think its good enough or what I'm doing wrong unless you tell me so tell me.
Without further ado...
Chapter 8
Ginny sat up, looking around. 'Malfoy has to have something to eat around here! He's 17, rich, and a guy... teenage guys are always hungry. If I were Draco Malfoy where would I stash my vittles?' She started to sigh but smelled something oddly familiar. Sniffing around under the bed she found a hidden shelf in the underside of the bed. 'Ok so being a cat isn't all bad; the increased senses are definitely nice.' She thought. 'If this is permanent – no it can't be permanent.'
Luna walked from Green House 4 towards Hagrid's Hut. Jordan didn't say anything when she started off in the wrong direction; he just grabbed her hand and complained about being late.
"I wonder what Hagrid has for us today?" Jordan pondered out loud.
"What do you mean?" Luna asked befuddled.
"Well you know as well as I do, Hagrid's taste in creatures is not normal, or for that matter entirely safe." Jordan explained. Seeing this conversation was going nowhere he changed the subject. "So anything new on that box your parents sent you?"
"Box? Oh the Box!" "Luna covered quickly. "Nope. I have no idea what it is so I'm going to chuck it in my wardrobe and forget about it."
"Well you'll only have to wait till Saturday. They said you could open it on your birthday right?"
"Uh, yea they did." Luna said quickly. "Are you sure we can't just skip this one class? I don't want to get hurt by anything Hagrid might think is cute."
"You're going to class. What's with you? I know you're not a 'good girl' but you'd never ditch class, especially not Hagrid's."
"Fine, I'll go to class but I'm not happy, just so you know." Jordan didn't have a chance to ask anymore they'd reached the rest of the class. Luna looked at a large enclosure. Inside was what looked like white scaled dogs. 'Dogs.' Luna hissed and one of the creatures let out a bawl like she'd never heard. It sounded like three different voices singing in rumbling unison. Luna didn't like the sound.
"Alrigh, settle down. Now class, these beauties are called Nenstras. Can anyone tell us anythin 'bout Nenstras?" Hagrid looked around the class. "Ah Ginny. What 'bout you?"
"Um, sorry I don't know a damn thing about these mongrels." Luna announced. Hagrid looked flabbergasted. Ginny had never said anything like that about a magical creature before.
Jordan looked back and forth from Hagrid to Luna before quickly saying,"Um, Professor Ginny hasn't been feeling quite herself today."
"Alrigh' but Ginny, behave or I'll be forced ta give ya a detention. Now Nenstras are righ' useful to the Ministry. Aurors use 'em to find blokes in disguise. Grea' round muggles too. When a muggle gets near one o' these chaps they sprout fur and take on the o'perance of a muggle Siberian 'usky. Now you're goin' to split inta pairs. Each pair grab a Nenstra. Now r'member these pups hunt by aura and instinct, they can spot a bad egg so if they growl at ya back 'way slowly and don' make any suddin moves."
Jordan and Luna paired up; Jordan went to the enclosure and returned with one of the larger beasts. Upon seeing Luna the Nenstra began barking loudly and growling, baring its teeth. Luna jumped back hissing. Jordan struggled to control the Nenstra but lost his balance and fell letting it go. He quickly yelled for Hagrid while Luna ran around in circles screaming like a banshee. "Get this mutt away from me. Oh Bollix!" The Nenstra jumped up and Luna instinctively kicked the offending animal in the chest sending it flying into a large tree trunk. The Nenstra whined and collapsed at the base of the tree, unconscious. Luna growled and brushed herself off.
"Uh, where'd you learn to do that, Gin?" Jordan asked astounded.
Luna just glared at Jordan and hissed, "This wouldn't have happened if you'd just let me skip!" At this the bell rang and Luna stormed up to the castle to History of Magic.
Luna didn't stay awake long in class. Professor Binns was a floating lullaby. Luna dreamt of the Nenstra, and Jordan watched as her fingernails scratched lines in the desk.
Harry, Ron, and Hermione walked through the halls toward the Common Room. Their topic of discussion was Ginny. Hermione was trying to play Ref but to no avail. Harry was angry at Ron because he wouldn't listen to Harry and Ron was mad at Harry because he'd lied to Ron.

Ginny made her way up the stairs and through the corridors before meeting the Fat Lady. She stood for a moment trying to remember the new password; they'd changed it after the 'Slytherin Break-In'. 'Freezer Burn, Frozen Chocolate, Oh!' "Chocolate Burn!" She piped up... The Lady didn't even look up from her conversation with her neighbor, only swung open to reveal the common room. She rushed up to her room.
As Ginny opened her door and flicked the hood from her head she saw Jordan holding Luna as if to inspect her.
"Um, Jordan what are you doing with my cat?" Ginny asked warily.
Jordan's head snapped in her direction. "Ginny!!!!" he ran to her and enveloped her in a bear hug. "Uh, Gin, where'd you get the invisibility cloak?"
"I missed you too. I got it from Dra-Malfoy's room." She said, exasperatedly. "So what all did she do?
"Plenty! But wait a tick.. You were in Malfoy's room... for how long?"

"So, uh, when are you going to ask her out?" Harry asked. This just sent Ron back into La La Land. Harry smiled at his fork and finished his dinner.
Draco stepped in the doorway of his room. It was a mess. Ok so it was only a bunch of wrappers on his floor but in his room that was the equivalent of a bombshell. But that wasn't the problem. 'Who the Hell has been in my room? How long were they here? How long have they been gone? What did they want? What did they take?' He looked around his room; nothing appeared out of place other than the wrappers on the floor. 'They raided my room for my sweets stash?' he thought unbelievingly. Draco took out his wand and with a wave the offending items flew into the trash bin in the corner. Draco took a seat at his desk and grabbing a roll of parchment started on his Potions Homework.
Draco's concentration was wavering and his attention span short. He looked around the room, his eyes resting on a talisman tucked under his bed. He'd been born with it in his left hand. He'd always thought of the 'G' engraved in it had meant greatness but as he looked at it now all he could think was Ginny.
Ginny finished the tale with her stealing Draco's cloak, and hearing him practically admit he was responsible for everything.
"So it was him? He was acting weird when you, er she changed." Jordan thought out loud.
"Yep."
"But he wouldn't stoop that low. Yea he would. Damn, I should have known something was up, especially when Luna told off Flitwick."
"What? No way!" It was too much. First off, turning into a cat isn't the first thing on her to-do list this morning, then being trapped in Draco Malfoy's room for the entire day while her cat waltzed around in her skin. Plus finding out that Draco might have the other half of her talisman. 'It's been a long day.' "Um, Jordan I know there's soo much to talk about but I could use a nice back rub." She shot him puppy eyes. "Please?"
"Oh not the face. You know I can't refuse the face." Ginny started to pout. "Oh alright!"
"Yay!!!" Ginny pulled off the rest of the cloak before quickly restoring it to her herself... "Uh, Jordan can you turn around?"
"Oh sure." He turned and she got dressed, throwing the invisibility cloak under her pillow.
Draco resigned trying to complete his homework. Throwing his quill down he prepared for bed, stripped down to his boxers and crawled in bed. Just as he reached the perfect position, temperature, and was about to fall asleep some thing in his stomach dropped. Draco groaned. He had to pee. Not moving he weighed his options. He hadn't wet the bed since... well ever. Then again there was no way he was going to get to sleep easily if he didn't get up. 'When in doubt, the bladder wins out.' Draco thought on his way to the bathroom.
"Ok you can turn back around." She was in a bra and a pair of black flairs that were huge at the bottom. She went to lay down on her bed. Jordan lay by her giving her a massage. She fell asleep there. Jordan kissed her shoulder and tucked her in.
"I hope Malfoy has life insurance, cause he's going to need it when she gets done with him."
