The Great Hall fell silent as Dumbledore stood up. It was the end of the year feast.
"Another year gone. Some of the staff will be here all summer if your family feels they won't be safe because of the ever rising threat of Voldemort. And next year, we will have a student come whose been missing for the past 8 years-Ms. Generva Weasley." With that he sat down.
The hall broke into whispers. Many people stared at Ronald Weasley. Not many had known about the youngest child in the Weasley family.
Fira, Ginny thought. Before her appeared the guardian of fire. She commanded it to do a few things and then dismissed it. She waited for her score. In order to pass she had to have a minimum total of 90 points and no lower than and 8 from any given judge. She cocked her head and smirked as she got straight 10's.
She bowed her head in respect as she left. She then headed to the house she'd been staying at for the past 8 years-ever since she was 7. She walked in and a bunch of people said "Congrats!"
"So, what'd you get?" her "sister" Maline asked.
"Straight tens. I definitely aced it."
"Ginny, we have to tell you something. You will be attending Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry in London, England this fall. I have alerted the headmaster that you should be the 7th year courses."
Draco paced around the manors library. It was a week before school started. His mother and father found him pacing and was curious as to what he was so worked up about. Lucius stopped him and looked him into the eye.
"Draco, what's going on? Voldemort isn't going to harm us, Dumbledore made sure of that." Lucius Malfoy asked.
"It's not that." Draco replied.
"You haven't been this confused over your feeling since you had the fling with Ginny Weasley." Narcissa joked.
Draco looked up briefly. "She's attending Hogwarts this fall."
"What?" Lucius asked.
"Dumbledore made the announcement at the end of the year feast. She was to attend Hogwarts. I don't know what to do. I still have feeling for her."
"Then ask her out again. Your not going out with anyone. You always say there's something wrong with the girls at Hogwarts-too stupid, too ugly, the list goes on. The one girl you've never said there was something wrong with was Ginny."
"It's not that easy, father. We never actually 'broke up' which would cause complications on getting 'back together'. It'd be extremely hard to go back to how we used to be. I've changed and she probably has, too."
Ginny walked into the main hall of Hogwarts. She bounced impatiently on the balls of her feet. Finally, when she thought she was going to scream, Professor Snape came to get her. She walked up to the front and sat on the stool. The hat was placed on her head.
"SLYTHERIN!" the hat yelled.
The Slytherin table erupted in cheers. She sat down next to a girl with blonde hair. Across from her sat a blonde boy and a raven haired boy. The blonde boy looked extremely familiar. She could swear his name was at the tip of her tongue.
"This section of the table is for the popular and smartest students only." the blonde girl said.
"Then it looks like I'll fit in and your place on the popularity scale will move down one notch. After all, it was, and still is, quite hard to ignore the stares and...er...interested comments floating about me." Ginny smirked at the girl.
The boys sitting on the other side of the table snickered.
"I like you. Most would move to another spot. They are quite afraid of playing with fire. Unpredictable fire is." The girl said.
"But I just love playing with fire."
"Pansy Parkinson. Pleased to meet you." the blonde girl said sticking out her hand. Ginny shook it. "And these are my cousins Blaise Zabini and Draco Malfoy." Pansy said pointing to each of the boys sitting across from them.
"Pleasures mine." Ginny replied. I knew I remembered him from somewhere. My one and only crush, she thought.
"So, where have been the 8 years you were missing?" Blaise asked.
"Well, I was kidnapped by some creep. Then I was able to escape unscathed in any way shape or form except for complete memory loss except my name. I stumbled upon a village and they gladly accepted me in. About 4 years ago I received my memory back."
"Why didn't you come back then?" Draco asked.
"I like the studies and people I was around. I came here because each person is supposed to go to another place to spend their final year of learning. It's up to them whether they go away or stay in the village after."
"Interesting. But shouldn't you be coming next year. You should only be in your sixth year."
"No. I'm at the 7th year level. I should be attending all the 7th year classes. Actually I can do college level Potions."
The next morning the owls came with the schedules. Ginny looked over hers and grew upset. They had her in sixth year classes! She walked over to the staff table and confronted Dumbledore.
"This isn't what was agreed! I was to take 7th year courses not 6th year!"
"You should have gotten the 7th year schedule. There must've been a mix up. I'm sure Mr. Malfoy will show you where the classes are."
"Thank you."
Ginny stalked off after Draco, Blaise, and Pansy.
That's it for now. . By the way, can anyone give me a reference to who Blaise Zabini is? I don't remember reading about him in the books but everyone uses his character-her in some stories. Thanks. R&R.
