Chapter 17
Quickly Ginny read the information below the title.
Using magical connections to take someone down through the mind
It is possible for wizards or witches to use their minds to take another person down. When one is trained enough, you can enter another persons mind.
This technique has not been used since the Age of Frendylow in 1765. It is said that in that Age, the wizard Agnus Huveough has tried to take out his rival Borun Melowa using this technique. It has been said that Agnus had contacted Borun trough the mind and both duelled in an otherworldly place. In the end Borus won but had mercy upon his enemy and allowed him to live, but only if he promised on Wizards Honour never to try and attack him in any way. Agnus agreed. Both went back into 'their own minds'. Friends, who were with Agnus when he went into trance, heard the story once Agnus came out of it. Both Wizards however were thrown back into that otherworldly place and no one knows what happened to them after that. Since that story, The Ministry of Magic has forbidden using that technique or spreading out any information about how to use it.
All records that gave information on how to do this were destroyed. It is however said there is one book: "The secret book that contains helpful, but dangerous methods to take your enemy out" that is rumoured to have information about this magical technique.
That was the only information the book had for Ginny, but for now it was enough. Ginny vowed to herself that if that book (the secret book that contains helpful, but dangerous methods to take your enemy out) existed, that she would find it. It was the only way to take Voldy out. And Draco was going to help her with this.
Ginny copied the information out of the book onto a piece of parchment and sneaked back to her Hospital bedroom. Once there, Ginny could finally rest, knowing that she had a plan.
The next morning, Ginny woke up feeling new and refreshed. She had decided not to tell Dumbledore about her plan, because she knew that he wouldn't ever allow her to go through with it. She however did decide to tell Draco about it. After all he was the Ice Prince and according to the prophecy, both of them are to defeat Voldemort and not her alone. Ginny only hoped he approved of her plan.
Ginny quickly changed into her normal clothes and called Madam Pomfrey.
"Am I allowed to leave now, Madam?" Madam Pomfrey hesitated.
"Well...you can go, but only if you promise to take everything slow and if you feel any pain or something, come straight to the Hospital Wing!" Pomfrey said wagging her finger in front of Ginny's face annoyingly.
"Okay" and whoosh! Ginny was outta there. She hated the Hospital Wing.
Ginny practically ran to the Great Hall to have a bite before classes. When she entered everyone clapped. Ginny looked around astonished. She hadn't done THAT much...
Dumbledore strode up to her.
"Miss Weasley, in light of what happened yesterday; I felt that the students owed an explanation. Seeing as Voldemort knows both yours and Mister Malfoy's identities, I saw no harm in telling every one of your...abilities. It would make it easier for you to go to your training with Cassandra which (thanks 'moony's number 1') Mister Malfoy will be following also"
Ginny glared at the headmaster. She just didn't like the idea of everybody knowing this. She just knew this was gonna bite her in the ass sooner or later.
"Yeah thanks, Professor" She said sarcastically, though Dumbledore didn't seem to notice as he made his way back to the staff table.
Ginny went to sit at the Gryffindor table and right next to Colin Creevey. Ginny had not forgotten that it was him who told the entire school that Harry asked her out and resulted in a fight with Draco plus the whole school knowing that they (Draco and Ginny) were dating.
"Hello Colin" Ginny said sweetly, sitting closely next to him.
Colin nervously looked yup to meet Ginny's eyes.
"Hi" he said meekly and averted his eyes to his plate in front of him.
Ginny looked at the Slytherin table to catch Draco's eye. As if sensing, he looked up immediately. Ginny winked and indicated her head towards Colin, who didn't notice. Draco now knew that Ginny was in for revenge on the little Gryffindor. He smirked; this was going to be good. She then indicated her head towards Blaise. Draco caught on and nudged Blaise in the side. Blaise looked at Draco and then at Ginny. Ginny winked again.
Slowly Ginny withdrew a small vial with a blue-coloured potion out of her robes. When Colin turned away for a second to ask Dean to pass the salt, Ginny quickly let a few drops of the potion fall into his goblet of butter beer.
The potion itself wasn't very harmful. It only made you're clothes disappear and leave just your underwear. The funny thing was, only other people would notice it, the person who drank the potion would still see his own clothes attached to his body.
After a few minutes Colin (FINALLY) drank some of his butter beer.
Final thought of Ginny: Hope you remembered to have clean underwear Colin!
In the beginning almost nobody notice that there was a half naked boy sitting in the middle of the Great Hall. Dean saw it first and gasped. He whispered something into Seamus' ear and now also Seamus looked into Colin's direction. Soon the entire hall was aware of...Colin...in the Great Hall...with only wearing his boxers...which was decorated with tiny little white bunny's all over...
Colin looked up sensing all of the eyes on him. Everybody looked at him and he brought his hand to his face, thinking he might have something on it or something.
Ginny couldn't hold in any longer and started laughing... (Do I REALLY need to mention 'loud' again?). Soon everybody started laughing and even the Slytherins went a bit overboard with the snickers.
In the meanwhile, Colin couldn't find out what was so funny. He was pretty sure there was nothing on his face or anything. He turned to Dean who was literally dying of laughter.
"What's so funny!" he whispered furiously. Dean only laughed more and Lavender leaned towards Colin.
"Did you forget to put some clothes on?" Lavender said between giggles.
Colin looked down, seeing his regular old school robes.
"What do you mean, I AM wearing clothes!" he snapped.
Dean found his voice again and said.
"Then why can I see the...boxer with little bunny's all over?"
Colin's eyes widened and he abruptly stood up, giving the entire Hall more...'view'
He turned to Ginny, knowing she had to be the only one able who could do this.
Ginny stood up and said: "Well Colin, seeing as you find it so amusing to talk about someone else's private business as to who asked who out and etcetera...I thought to myself...Ginny maybe the boy needs a little more 'action' of his own, so I think that this little...event will result in more female...or maybe even male...attraction and therefore...will stay out of some one else's business"
Payback's a bitch eh Colin?
