It's been weeks since Ginny gave up on trying to change Draco and Karen had noticed.
"You barely tried." Karen paused. "Rawr." She bared her teeth and stormed off angrily. "I'll be off raping."
"Psh. You can't even make out with your own pillow." Ginny muttered and set herself off to find a new sidekick. She started heading off to the Gryfindor common room to see if she can find any lonely student willing to prance around the school with, but it was impossible since many of the lonely ones stayed inside the common room. And in Ginny's mind, the lonely ones were the lonely boys that didn't enjoy large amounts of prancing around the school.
There was one point where she pranced around with a boy – Harry Potter – but she realised it was a dream and he didn't enjoy prancing. "I am the unrequited love." Dream!Harry whispered in here ear and ran away to join his friends.
"Ouch Weasley. That really hurt... Ginny Weasley." Draco sputtered. He rubbed his foot in the air and returned it back to the step.
"That's why people don't sit in the middle of the stairway, Draco Malfoy. Besides, what the hell do you think you're doing here near the Gryfindor common room?" Ginny said as if she were going to bite his head off.
Draco ignored the question. "Where's that little friend of yours? Karen? She made you look like a lesbian."
Ginny pulled out her wand.
"She did... and then she seemed as if she were bi when I found out she liked me. You better swear to me that you're not turning lesbian; I haven't seen you with a boy for weeks. But I think that's g–" Draco, too, began to pull out his wand. He placed it back when he decided things were too inappropriate.
"I heard you've been groping Blaise in potions. Ron told me all about it, Molest-me-Malfoy."
"I would, but you are too red for my taste."
Ginny stomped on the ground. The stomping startled both Draco and the stairs which have begun to move towards a different platform. Ginny safely moved to the platform near the the Fat Lady portrait. She listened to him scream as the stairs were nearing to the next platform. If she doesn't stop it, his hand would be crushed!
"Ginny freakin' Weasley... you get me out of here!" He yelled. "Wait until my father hears about this!"
She tried as hard as she could to stifle her laugh... to stifle everything that she wanted to yell at him for. She tried to stifle the hate that tempted her to leave him be, to leave him and crush his hand... to leave him and let him fall to the hard floor the next time the stairs move. But words rang in her head... the words that had came out of Draco's mouth. Simple, yet not quite understandable, they began to haunt her. But I think that's g– What was the last word? Great? Gruesome?
"What were you going to tell me?" Ginny yelled back at him.
"Oh, great. You stupid girl! Try any spell! Try petrificus totalus if you have to!" He shouted while trying to pull himself up on the staircase.
Ginny jumped on the stair and ran as quickly as she could to the edge. She helped Draco up, but as he was about to step on the stairs, the ballisters aligned and he fell to the floor.
"Oh, shoot." She muttered under her breath. Immediately, she thought of a detour to the common room and ran as fast as she could to get there, in hopes that Draco wouldn't find her. Instead, she ended up running into a Ravenclaw prefect with dark red hair and brown streaks. The amber eyes of the girl turned into a small glare. The prefect badge began to haunt Ginny.
"I'm afraid I have to take five points from Gryfindor for careless running about in school. I'm beginning to think you've done something wrong." The girl said.
"Damn." Ginny said as she helped herself up. Well it's just five points; Hermione could easily earn them back in Ancient Runes, She thought.
"I am Jos Clearwater of Ravenclaw, Fifth year. I suppose you're the sister of Ron, right? He's such a bad prefect; he tries to sneak in the prefect's bath when Hermione's in there. He says he'd 'like to have a word with her.' Filthy, filthy mind."
"He fancies her." Ginny said quickly. "He REALLY fancies her. He's just too thick to realise that she fancies him too."
"Well, what were you running from anyway?" Jos inquired, beginning to sit down.
"Draco Malfoy... He– well... I did something wrong."
"Oh, what did you do?"
"He was hanging from the edge of the stairs. I helped him and all that... and he ended up falling. All the way down. I just hope he doesn't break a bone. I know I shouldn't have stomped on the staircase."
"Stomping makes it move. It's sort of the emergency command. Draco should've known that. Such an idiot prefect." Jos sighed. "Well, he's going to be safe, falling from high heights doesn't really do anything. Madame Pomfrey can fix him up in no time! ... He'll just look very distorted. What else happened?"
There, Ginny sat and explained everything else that went on. Moments later, they began sharing their life stories and Ron, who Jos slightly fancied.
"Well, nice talking to you Ginny. I haven't had a good talk with a friend in years. I always had this one friend who'd talk nonstop about Harry Potter." Jos said.
Ginny began turning pink.
"Well, she would talk nonstop about boys. I mean honestly-- I should stop myself from rambling on. Like now, I'm supposed to be walking around in the halls."
"I had a friend like that. Emphasis on had. She was one of my close friends too, but she ran off because I gave up on silly Draco Malfoy."
"You liked him?" A disgusted look began to show on Jos' face.
"HELL no. I should move along too; he might find me here." Ginny said. "I should be practicing my charms. Let's see... where's my wand..." Ginny felt around for her wand.
Feeling up yourself again, Weasley? She heard in her head. You left it on the stairs while trying to save me. But remember... I fell. You just left me there... bleeding and such. His voice started to slither off to the back of her mind, but somehow it led her back to the stairs without saying goodbye to Jos. She did manage to sort of wave at her, but it was a sort of wave that was hidden beneath her robes.
And then her wand stared at her, as if it were to Bat Bogey Hex her for leaving Malfoy on the floor. She picked up the wand and looked down on the floor; he wasn't there. But from the seventh floor, she could see a small spot of dark red being siphoned by a wizard. Next to the wizard laid a wand, broken in two.
She walked silently to the dormitories, about ready to take a nap.
But something had hit her head.
"That's for... kicking me... in the shins."
"What in the beard of Merlin are you going on about?" Ginny opened her eyes and turned to face the door.
"You are so mean to me... bashing me with a book, batting me with a broom stick. To think I followed you ALL THESE YEARS." Karen's brown-eyes started to water.
"Oh Merlin, Karen. Pure bloody Merlin." Ginny closed her eyes again.
"You suck. Just go to bed." Karen slammed the door behind her.
Ginny shot straight up. "GO TO BED? You're telling me to GO TO BED? Where in the name of Merlin do you think I am?Merlin, Merlin, Merlin."
"You're not supposed to say his name three times." Karen said, with fear rising in her voice.
"Merlin, Merlin, Merlin, Merlin, Merlin, Merlin, Merlin, Merlin, Merlin, Merlin, Merlin, Merlin, Merlin." Ginny repeated with a mockish tone.
Suddenly a scream from the Common Room could be heard. A transparent hand came out of the door and pulled itself in.
"Weasley. Ginny Weasley." The ghost flew into Ginny.
Ginny squirmed and walked very soldierlike towards Karen.
"Ginny's posessed! Ginny's posessed!" She screamed and ran into the door. It obviously knocked her out.
"For a very imprudent child, you friend can be slightly smart." The ghost said with an eerie voice. It flew out of Ginny's body.
"Wh-wh-who are y-y-you?" Ginny stuttered. She backed slowly towards the headboard.
"Well if you said a certain name three times and forsomereason but nearlycoincidentallyaghostshowsuptohauntyou, wouldn't you think it's Merlin?" Karen said through her teeth.
The ghost pulled Ginny's hand and took her to the year 2005. "This is what'll become of Hogwarts if they are separated. Broken... torn apart. It's very dark and mysterious how being ununited can do anything, especially destroy." The ghost pulled away a sort of veil and showed Ginny a Hogwarts that was blackened from the smoke burning outside.
"Overdramatisation, Sir Merlin."
"And so it may be, but do look now that it takes one person to start something grand. Bring in many concepts, such as rolemodeling et cetera, et cetera... and others will follow."
The blackened Hogwarts began to disappear. In its place appeared a much untainted Hogwarts and a little girl with light pink hair running about.
Ginny returned to the common room and stared at Karen who was sitting on her trunk.
"Hullo." Karen said in an innocent tone.
"Dammit Karen, I'll try it again." Ginny began to stare at a dark corner. The darkness is still small, but if she would wait later the entire room will be filled with that very same darkness.
