After Hermione left the Grand Hall Ron quickly caught up to her but had to stop and practically rip Lavender off of Pansy. It was the only time Ron could say he helped a Slytherin willingly. Lavender put up one hell of a fight screaming about how Pansy stole her baby and how he was behind it.

So, he convinced Lavender that he'd fetch Harry for her and to meet them in the girl's bathroom in an hour next, he ran after Hermione. But on the way he had to stop a breakout fight between two Hufflepuffs third years (boys nonetheless), thank righteousness either knew how to work their wands properly.

Where the hell were all the teachers?

Then a thought crossed his mind, none of the teachers were in the Grand Hall. Were they suffering the same plague as the rest of the school? Then something else made him ponder, why was he the only sane one? Surely there had to be someone else.

All thoughts ceased however when he reached the common rooms and saw Hermione performingwhat looked like a lovepotion they learned a year ago he was actually paying attention that day, so without making noise he crept up behind her. Which wasn't hard considering everyone was screaming about how Harry wasn't in his room.

He conjured up some leather robe, a spell that his brothers taught him well, and actually USED on him countless times. Then, he grabbed Hermione who was attuned to the world or some nonsense and successfully tied her up. If only he could do that to the whole school.

"I hope your happy RONALD!" Hermione screeched at her "best friend" from the common room couch which she was currently tied up to. "You made me miss my chance with my precious, if I had my wand you wouldn't have a d-," Ron cut her off by putting magic tape on her lips.

Thank goodness for my brothers and their joke gadgets.

Hermione glared him and screamed through the tape. He looked around and was amazed that no one cared about the stuck-up friend they all knew.

Good thing they don't or I'd be sent to the funny-farm.

"Colin I will execute you if you don't tell me where my Harry is!" Oliver screamed as he literally picked up Colin like a rag doll.

"You can't do anything to me, it will destroy Harry and you know it! Besides if I knew where he was I'd be there right now holding him!" Colin breathed. It was apparent that he was scared but trying extremely hard to be brave.

I'm surrounded by stupid, lovesickgits.

"Oliver put him down; you don't him to piss his pants do you?" Ron questioned as he ran over to secure the situation. Oliver was a lot taller than him and slowly put the boy down. He looked Ron straight in the eye; Ron saw that Colin had run off into the now forming crowd. Of course now they were interested in him when beatings would commence.

"Are you challenging me, Weasley?" Oliver accused stalking closer to Ron about to beat him to a bloody pulp.

"PUH-lease, as if I want to-," Ron said nonchalantly.

"Is he not good enough for you?" Oliver questioned then he turned toward the rest of the people in the room, "Hey everyone, Weasley thinks that Harry's not good enough for him!"

"You sod!" Seamus cried. "You shouldn't be able to live!" He pulled out his wand and Ron started to freak out as four other people pulled out their wands.

"NO! I'm not good enough for Harry, I was saying how could I-," Ron stopped.

THINK FASTER! Channel Hermione's brain.

"-compete with you all for him. I'm obviously not his- equivalent if you will." Ron stuttered but thanked whatever brain power that he possessed to come up with that. It also helped that he read a dictionary over the summer, hey he was bored.

"Damn straight!" Percy said from behind him.

I have to tell Dad to stop buying American muggle movies.

It wasn't a good thing to show his older brother.

"Let's beat his bloody brains out!" Cho Chang yelled. It was funny how she never much paid attention to Harry even though he "head-over-heels" for the girl Ron used to see why but lately she was annoying. Like now how she was conjuring up a spell.

How the hell did she even get in here?

"Stop," Dean yelled at Cho, "his only crime has been loving someone." Dean said to everyone. "Isn't that why we all love Harry, he stands for what we should believe in! With just a little more love in the world we all can be like Harry Potter."

It was a touching mini speech and everyone was quiet for a second. Ron cheered the guy on for knocking some sense into the hormone driven teens. There was finally some peace in the common room.

"GET HIM!" Ron whipped around and saw Hermione had untied herself and had her wand back in her hand with it pointed directly at him.

Then all chaos broke lose, the people nearest to him tried to attack him but in turn pissed off the person next to them so they started fighting. Soon everyone was battling it out with fists. Ron had to find Harry now before something awfully bad happened.

He turned to his right and saw Hermione and Percy were engaged in warfare over their standing in Harry's life. So, Ron slipped out and hoped to the stars that nothing else crossed his path.

Great I just jinxed myself!

Harry's were wide as Draco licked the whipped cream off a spoon right in front of his face.

Was that supposed to mean something?

So far, Draco had tickled the hell out of him by saying some thick explanation how whatever was his he wrote his name on then heTOREopen his shirt and wrote in huge letters what felt like Draco Malfoy. After he wrote it on his arms, legs, hands, the feet were the worst and his forehead. It wasn't even just one color, it was a magic pen that changed colors, and he looked like a freaking clown on acid!

So there he was spread out like a Thanksgiving turkey with Draco's name written all over him and forced to watch him eat, no devour the cream that barely touched his nose. Thank goodness he wasn't creative.

If only I hadn't written on him then this cream would be on him, but that pen is nasty though. Next time I'll get one that's flavored.

"Stage one is complete my love." Draco said standing off the bed he laughed as he saw Harry make a gag face at the word love. Torture was fun, blood wasn't fun though- too sticky and it stained everything.

Usually a second year would crack by now but Harry was different so unfortunately blood was necessary. Then if he still didn't crack Draco would be forced to pour hot wax on the wounds. They needed to be sterilized now didn't they? Draco was actually looking forward to seeing the boy snap.

Being evil is so much fun.
