Chapter Fourteen: Caught!
Pansy's eyes widened and she dropped her towel. "Jason. What are you doing here?" She smiled innocently, but he smirked and closed the door.
"How have you been doing, Pansy?" He asked politely and circled around her.
She stood up straighter and responded, "I'm fine and your plan is going well."
Jason nodded and continued to walk around her. Pansy was getting a littler scared and irritated, but she stayed calm. She didn't want to say something otherwise it would make her look like she was hiding something or was panicking. She let him walk around her and think for a while. Then all of the sudden her stopped and motioned for her to sit on the bed.
Pansy obeyed and sat. Jason nodded and paced in front of her as he talked, "Pansy, I don't know how to break it to you; so I'm just going to tell you that you have both good news and bad news. The good news is that you were doing a good job." Pansy began to panic more; he just said that she was doing a good job, what's going on?
Jason continued without stopping his pace, "The bad news is that you aren't doing a good job anymore and you have been pulled out of the plan."
Pansy jumped off the bed and asked, "What? Why? Are you firing me?"
Jason stopped pacing and stood right in front of her, "To put your answer in simplest terms, I know that you told them everything." Pansy's face went from scared to blank. She didn't know how he found out, but he did. Was he spying on her? Did he pop up while she was telling Sylvia or any other the others? Pansy was speechless to say the least, but she wanted to know how he found out. She tried to ask a full sentence, but the only thing that came out of her mouth was, "How?"
Jason chuckled and explained, "I'm not stupid Parkinson. I knew that you didn't want to do what I had asked you to so I put SZU's around the Zambini's home and some in Ginny's home to monitor you."
"SZU's?" Pansy interrupted.
"A bubble camera that is invisible to human eyes. Now if you interrupt me once more, I will be forced to kill you like my original plan. As I was saying, I put up SZU's; to make sure that you were doing your job. All was good, until you began spending time with Sylvia, much to my discontentment. Then feelings got in the way of business. I didn't worry about it much, but then that night. You decided to tell Sylvia about my plans. At first I was angry at you. I wanted to kill you, to make you suffer a horrible death because of what you did. Then I got to thinking, this could make my plan better; much better in fact. I have devised another plan Parkinson and its all thanks to you. You should be proud of yourself. I don't need you anymore; you're pulled out of the plan."
Pansy jumped up, "Wait, you can't just kick me out of your plan!"
"Well I will and did. Good bye, Parkinson." He lifted his wand up.
Pansy's eyes widened and she tried to run away, but she knew that she didn't get away because one minute her goal was to run far as possible away from Jason, then the next minute her goal was to keep herself from blacking out.
Ginny was sitting in a corner of her cell. She didn't know how long she had been their since she was taken by Jason because she had woken up in the cell by a putrid smell of blood and vomit. For all she knew she could've been there a few months, but she knew one thing for sure; she had been there less then a year. She couldn't tell because there were no windows anywhere in the dungeon, but there was artificial light. She was being kept in cellar; above her was the castle that Jason lived in. She had been there a couple of times.
Ginny saw Jason once every couple of hours. He would either come to try and talk to her or just to give her a meal. Amazingly, Jason fed her. At first she was a bit skeptical about eating the food, but after a few days she was starving. The first day, she didn't eat at all. Instead she threw the food at Jason. He didn't do anything but laugh. The second day, she still didn't eat. The third day, temptation started settling in. By the fourth day, she was famished but she resisted the attraction to the food. Unfortunately by the fifth day, she was so hungry that she knew she had to eat or else she would die. Ginny took small bites at first and waited to see if anything would happen to her. After a few minutes she found that she didn't feel sick so she continued eating.
As Ginny sat in her corner, her mind wondered. Many times it was about what Jason was going to do with her, but today her thoughts were on a certain someone. Draco. She would never admit it to anyone, but she was starting to fall for him again. In fact the more she thought about it, the more she wanted him. After a few hours of thinking about him, she came to the conclusion that she really liked him.
She loved everything about him: The way his eyes lit when he smiled; the way his voice just lifted every horrible thought, every worry in her body, away; the way his eyes glistened when he was excited; his body, his facial features, his posture, every flaw about him she loved. Ginny sighed, now she had to make a decision whether or not she is going to tell him.
'God I was so stupid back in school. How could I have given-"
Ginny's train of thought was interrupted by the sound the dungeon door opening. She didn't think that it was time for a meal so she guessed that Jason would try to talk to her again. But as the footsteps got closer, Ginny could hear the sound of more then one set of footsteps.
Ginny stood up and walked to the front of the cell where she would be able to see what was happening. She couldn't see anything but three people. Two people were on the side holding the person the center up. She tried to see if she could identify the faces, but the only face that looked familiar to her was- she gasped.
The guards threw the person into the cells and Ginny glared at her, "What are you doing here Pansy?"
Pansy groaned. Ginny sighed and kneeled in front of Pansy. "Are you ok?"
Pansy didn't respond, but fell flat on her face instead. Ginny sighed and tried to flip her over. Ginny grabbed the blanket that was given to her and cover Pansy with it. 'I'll beat her ass later.' Ginny thought as she settled back in her corner.
Sylvia paced in front of Draco, Blaise and Harry. They have just been trying to contact Pansy, but she wasn't at Ginny's house. They were getting a little bit worried that something had happened to her. What if Jason got to her? What if she ratted them out?
In the middle of her pacing she was stopped by her husband. He wrapped his arms around her and started kissing her neck, relaxing her. "Hon, I think that everything is going to be fine. I'm sure that Pansy will come back to tell us what she found out. Relax."
Sylvia held back a moan and whispered, "Draco and Harry are-"
"Gone. They told us to contact them if she gets here. Now relax."
She moaned as Blaise began sucking her weak spot, "What about Paige?"
"Draco took her."
Sylvia nodded.
After a couple of hours, Ginny heard a groan. She walked over to where Pansy was lying and kneeled in front of her.
"Hey." Ginny whispered.
Pansy sat up slowly and rubbed her eyes, "Where am I?"
Ginny sighed, "You're in a dungeon cell."
Pansy closed her eyes and leaned back onto the wall. "Do you know how lucky you are?" Ginny didn't responding because she already knew the answer. Pansy continued, "You have friends and family who love you. People who are willing to do anything to get you back to safety."
"I know." Ginny said softly. The two women sat in the cell quietly; each wrapped in there own thoughts and feelings. It wasn't an awkward silence where neither of them knew what to say, it was a comfortable silence. A silence that just said nothing, but meant many things.
Just as Pansy was about to say something, the door to the dungeons opened. Quick, swift, quiet footsteps were being heard. Both women both knew those footsteps. They belonged to:
"Hello ladies." Jason greeted cheerily.
Both women rolled their eyes and Ginny asked, "What do you want, Jason?"
He chuckled and said, "Well I just thought that you two might have wanted to know what my plan was. I don't think that there is anyway you can escape and tell anyone of your little friends so I'll tell you. That is if you want to know."
Ginny was beyond happy to what his plan was for her and Pansy. Unfortunately for Pansy, she was feeling nervous. She hadn't told Ginny about what she had done yet and she was surprised that Ginny hadn't asked her why she thought she was lucky. And she was beginning to thing that Jason knew this.
Jason smirked at Pansy and continued, "If Pansy hadn't done what she did, I wouldn't have come up with this extraordinary plan." Ginny looked at Pansy confused. 'What is he talking about?' She asked herself.
Jason resumed, "I'm going to have someone, I'm not sure who yet, play Pansy. She will tell Sylvia what 'information' she had gathered on me. Sylvia will then tell Draco, Blaise and Harry. Harry will devise a plan to get Ginny back. The person who is playing Pansy will tell me what the plan is, and I'm pretty sure you ladies will be able to figure out what I'll do from there."
Ginny was still confused, so Pansy asked the question that was one both of there minds, "What makes you so sure that your plan will go the way you say it will?"
Jason chuckled, "Well if what I say doesn't happen, their will always be a plan B and the person who will be playing Pansy will inform me. I will always be one step ahead of you simpletons. Poor muggle-loving wizards and witches. You think that Voldemort is bad, you have another thing coming for you." With that he left the dungeons.
Ginny turned to Pansy, still confused and asked, "Do you know what he was talking about when he said 'If Pansy hadn't done what she did, I wouldn't have come up with this extraordinary plan.'?"
Pansy sighed, "Ginny, we need to talk."
Ginny cautiously walked over to the blanket and sat on it. She didn't trust Pansy completely right now. She still thought of her as the Slytherin bitch who always hung off Draco's arm. Pansy sat next to Ginny and began telling her what she had done sine Ginny was kidnapped.
Meanwhile somewhere else in castle; Jason paced his study, mumbling to himself. "Who would be good to play the part of Parkinson? I have to have someone good. Not that it's hard to play her, but someone who is convincing." Just then the doors of the study opened and in walked Jason's partner in crime. 2224 He smiled wickedly and motioned for her to sit on a chair.
"Do your best impression of Parkinson for me." He commanded her.
She raised an eye brow at him and asked, "What's in it for me?"
He chortled and said, "You'll get to play undercover."
Her eyes lit up and she clasped her hands together. "Oh how I wish that Draco and I were together. We would be so happy. Just he and I, together forever." She imitated and sighed dramatically.
Jason smirked, "Perfect."
Sylvia and Blaise were wrapped in a bundle of blankets, holding each other. For the first time in a while, Sylvia was relaxed. She sighed contently and wormed closer into Blaise. He smiled and kissed the top of her head. They didn't say anything for a while.
"We should probably get dressed and go down to Draco's place." Sylvia whispered.
Blaise had his eyes closed, pretending to be asleep, but Sylvia knew better. She bent over towards his ear and whispered, "If Draco takes Paige for the night, then we could have another round."
At his, Blaise sat up and started putting on his clothes. Sylvia rolled her eyes and wrapped the blanket around her body and went to the bathroom. As expect, Blaise was done before she was. He hammered on the bathroom door, demanding that she come out of it before he went in there himself and pull her out of the bathroom, taking her to Draco's whether she was dressed or not.
Five minutes later, Sylvia and Blaise at Draco's place. Paige and Emily were taking a nap. Sylvia wasn't as worried as she was before and Draco knew why. They had waited for Pansy to contact them all day, but they assumed that she was with Jason. He probably had a lot of things to tell Pansy. Hopefully she would remember it all and come back and tell them. Luckily for Sylvia and Blaise, Draco was able to Paige that night. "It's not like I have anything to do and I think that Paige and Emily should spend more time together." Draco said.
After dinner, Blaise and Sylvia left Malfoy Manor; leaving Draco feeling empty. He sighed and walked up to Emily's room. He knocked on the door and walked in. "Ok girls, time for bed."
"Oh but, Dad." Emily whined.
"No ands, ifs, or buts. Go take a shower, brush your teeth and go to bed."
Emily walked up to her father and made the cutest puppy dog face. Draco rolled her eyes and picked her up. "You have me wrapped around your little fingers, don't you?" Draco asked. She smiled and kissed her father. "You bettcha."
Draco laughed and picked Paige up in her other arm. He carried them to the bathroom and gave them each a bath. They brushed their teeth and ran back to Emily's room. "Daddy, can't we stay up a little longer?"
"Yes, Uncle Draco. Can we?" Paige asked.
"Please?" The girls asked in unison.
Draco sighed and gave in, "Fine, but in half an hour lights go out."
Both Paige and Emily smiled victoriously and agreed. Draco left the room, closing the door behind him. 'I feel like a women stuck in a man's body.' Draco thought as he walked to his study.
Ginny was shocked to hear what Pansy had to say to her. She knew that Pansy was low, but never in her life had she known that Pansy was that low. "You are such a bitch!" Ginny shrieked. "I have never done a single thing in my life to hurt you and yet here you are telling me that you tried to ruin my life?!"
"Look Ginny-"
"Do not call me that Parkinson. As far as I'm concerned only friends call me by my first name. You are my enemy and will address me by my surname." Ginny spat ferociously.
Pansy sighed, "I made a mistake ok? People make mistakes and what do you always say about them?"
Ginny glared at her and replied, "People make mistakes and it doesn't do well to dwell on them, but normal people don't make life threatening mistakes like you just did. You could have changed over ten people's lives. Do you know that?"
"Yes, I realize that and I'm sorry. I wasn't thinking of anyone save for myself. But now I've come to grasp what I have done wrong." She sat with her back against the wall and closed her eyes, "I know that my changes with Draco and Emily have flown out of the window. I have to move on. I just thought that if I gave it one more try that I would be able to convince Draco that we love each, but in reality we never loved each other in the first place. That should have been my first clue. The second should have been that you have taken my place."
"What?" Ginny asked seating herself next to Pansy.
Pansy shook her head lightly and smiled, "Draco loves you. He always had and has; even back in school, every day at meals he would stare across the room looking for you. That was the main reason I hated you, not because you were a Weasley but because you were the one who won Draco's heart as mine slowly fell apart. I knew that you two were friends and it disgusted me.
"I tried to convince him that you were no good, but he said that his friendship meant more to him then anything in the world to him and there was nothing in the world that I could change that. I was devastated, but I didn't let that stop me from trying to continue to convince him that we were 'meant to be'. But as the years past by, you two got closer and mostly every dream I had of he and I ever being together disappeared. That was until I remember Lucious. I told him of you and Draco. He was very unhappy and promised me that Draco and I will be together."
Ginny was starting to put the pieces together. Her family, the spell; it was all Pansy's doing. Pansy closed her eyes and continued, "Lucious told Voldemort and naturally Voldemort was disappointed and decided that there was only one thing to do. Put the one thing you love so dearly in a horrible position and black mail you with that."
"My family." Ginny whispered hoarsely. Pansy nodded, "I'm beyond sorry-"
"I know, Pansy." Ginny stood up and walked over to her corner of the cell and sat there. Pansy bit her lip and decided to leave Ginny alone. "I'm sorry." Pansy whispered not knowing whether or not Ginny had heard her.
