Pillage

Ginny stared at her professor and wondered just how much they'd had to drink. She had an erie feeling that she might have to tell them what every word in the song meant.

She sighed and summoned a dictionary. She flipped it open as the professors applauded her cool use of logic.

"Pillage," she read, "means to take booty." She looked up triumphantly at thier confused faces. Great, just great she thought, realizing niether man knew what booty was.

"Booty means treasure."

Snape had a look on his face that spelled out danger. "Well well well. What can we 'pillage'?"

Lupin grinned. "I know where Dumbledore keeps his lemon drops."

Jeez, they're like some kids.Ginny thought before saying. "Well I guess I should get to-"

"Oh no you don't Potter." Snape said grabbing Ginny's shirt."We nees you to help us."

And so Ginny found herself standing outside Dumbledore's office with a giggling Snape and Lupin. A little inner voice kept saying Well you wanted an adventure. Ginny told the voice to shove it.

Ginny was supposed to go in. Something about her being the smallest. If it hadn't been for the fact that niether realized she was a girl, she would have called it sexism.

Lupin had told her about twenty times where to find the lemon drops. He had even offered to draw her a map, which she declined.

Ginny sighed quietly and went in. she carefully avoided touching anything. She had just gotten the candies when the light came on and a voice said, "Up a little late are we, Miss Weasley?"

Ginny winced and turned around to face the beaming head master. "Professor, I-"

"Can explain. I know. But isn't life fun when you don't know something. I suppose though that you should know that I know about my Professor's earlier excursions. I should rather enjoy in fact if you would give me a detailed description of it tommorrow during tea."

"You mean, I'm not in trouble?" Ginny asked, bewildered.

"Severus so rarely gets to enjoy life or anything. I'd rather forgotten he could laugh."

(A/N: Sorry this took so long. I had it on my old computer so I didn't get to work on it much.)
