Chapter Ten- Trouble Brewing among Hogwarts
Christmas time came and went so quickly. Draco and Kim stayed at the castle and kept an eye on things. Harry, Ron, and Hermione all stayed at the castle. Their plan was coming along, slowly, but surely.
Kim had suggested that her and Draco make a polyjuice potion. But first, they would get an essence of Hermione and Ron. Then, the two of them would capture the two most loyal friends of Harry Potter, and take them to the Dark Forest. Once the polyjuice potion settled, Draco and Kim would transform into Harry's side-kicks. Since the polyjuice potion only works for an hours time, Kim said they would only make enough for that amount of time. For they would be in the Dark Forest by the time it wore off. Draco thought the plan was brilliant, and couldn't wait to do it. After all, they would trick Gryffindors most prized celebrity into thinking that his faithful half-giant friend, Hagrid, would want to see him.
Once every detail was complete, the pair sent their plan to Draco's father. He sent an owl back saying how smart the plan seemed. Lucius also mentioned that he would share the plan with Voldemort. They were sure to get Harry Potter this time. Kim and Draco waited patiently for May to come, when they would carry out their plan.
The start of second term, meant a start of new classes. Though quite unusual for a magic learning school, the sixth and seventh years were required to take health classes. New teachers were brought in for the jobs. The male students went with Professor Helta, while the female students went with Professor Promke. After the first day of those classes was over, each student had felt like they were scarred for life.
The second Quidditch game took place on the tweny-fourth of January. Gryffindor vs. Slytherin. Draco still remained as the teams Seeker. He chased after Harry numerous times, thinking he was after the golden Snitch. All in all, Harry was tricking Malfoy into believing he had the Snitch in view. When Draco finally realized that Harry was tricking him, he set off to find the Snitch. The score was 100 to 30; Slytherin in the lead. As soon as Draco found the Snitch, the game would be over, and they would win.
Then all of a sudden, a little golden trickle was spotted 100 feet below Draco's position. He noticed Harry fly from the opposite side of the field to where the Snitch was. Without realizing it, Draco sped as fast as he could. His hair slicked back from the wind, hand out-stretched. It happened, the game was over. Madame Hooch blew her whistle and said, "Slytherin wins! Malfoy caught the Snitch!"
The Slytherin team had gathered in the middle of the field. Their fellow Slytherins rushed to the field with excitement. Draco hoped to see Kim leading the way. Instead, she was no where in sight. He kept moving around the crowd to find her. Still no sign. Draco then found Pansy, who rushed into giving him a hug.
"Get off me! Where's Kim?" Draco demanded.
"I don't know. Haven't seen her all day," Pansy said truthfully, cheering with the other Quidditch players.
This began to worry Draco. He remembered his fathers words, "if you don't get rid of her, I will." Draco soon enough erased that thought from his mind. His father said she could help, he loved the plan afterall. Why would he take the one person who had the brains of the plan?
