It was about a week after the incident, Harry, Ron, and Hermonie were walking along the edge to the forest, trying to decide what scheme they should pull off next.
"Hermonie, think you could slip some truth spell into Snape's drink?"
"No, might be dangerous, he could let something about the Order slip."
"Ok, what about a potion to make his eyes continually change color?"
"Find the potion then."
"Oh, come on Hermonie."
"I'm doing all the hard work, so you do the easy work." Hermonie grinned at Harry and Ron as they groaned.
"You know Hermonie, I think having super powers is going to your head." Ron said, poking her in the back of the head. The next thing Ron knew, he was suspended from a tree by his feet, his robe falling over his head.
"So not fun." He moaned. He pushed his robe out of his face and say Harry and Hermonie walking away, back up to the castle. "Hey! Come on Hermonie, I was only joking, in fact, I think your super powers are just lovely, absolutely spiffing." Hermonie turned around, waved her wand, and Ron fell to the ground. "Have I already mentioned how NOT FUN that was?" he asked before he got to his feet and stumbled after them.
Ron had only just caught up to them, when the ground beneath them gave out. The three of them fell 12 ft before coming to an abrupt halt as it was then that the ground remembered it was supposed to catch them.
"What did I ever do!" Ron asked the sky.
"Accio wands." Draco Malfoy's voice rang out, three wands left their owners hands and came to rest in his outstretched hand. "Now, to answer your question, you humiliated me in front of the whole school, and now you get your punishment." (Que maniacal laughter)
Harry looked confused, "Your punishment it getting us dirty?" He asked.
"Yes, now you suffer- wait, that's not it."
Ron looked up, "Dropping us 12 ft?"
"No." Malfoy was starting to look a little confused.
Hermonie ventured a guess this time, "Putting us in a hole for safe keeping?" she tried.
"No, no, no, you're missing the point." Malfoy yelled.
"Which is?" Harry asked looking a little annoyed.
"If you don't know, I won't tell you."
"Do you even know Malfoy?" Hermonie asked.
"Of course I know, you're punishment is to get dirty, fall 12 ft, and be left to starve." Malfoy said looking pleased with himself.
"Draco, would you mind opening your left hand for a minute?" Hermonie asked sweetly. Malfoy was too busy being proud of himself to realize what was going on.
"Sure." He answered. It wasn't until he found himself facing the point of three wands till he understood. "No! That's not how it's supposed to work!" He yelled, nearly pulling out his hair.
"Then how is it supposed to work Malfoy?" Hagrid said coming up behind him.
"Um, Professor, I was just trying to get them out of this lovely pit I found them in, you see I was just walking along, and I heard desperate cries for help. I was just about to help them when you came alone." Draco said stuttering. "But now that you're here, I'll just be on my way, he he." He tried to tip toe off but Hagrid grabbed the back of his coat.
"Why don't you help me Malfoy. That way everyone in the school will know how helpful you can be." Hagrid grinned.
