Disclaimer: Let me think about it. Hmm? No.
A/N: Sorry I haven't updated in ages. Shame on me. Thankz to all those who stayed around to continue reading my story! I owe you all! Once again, I blame it on water polo and high school. Actually, my team is in second place in the district so we're doing pretty well for ourselves, but that means more practices. And for Karana Belle, Water Polo is easy to play, but you could come out of a practice with scratches, bruises and for me, a hurt ankle. But other than that, its fun. Well, here is the view from Harry, Fred, George and Ginny.
Harry and Ginny looked around the camp ground they were at. After being dropped off at the site by the dragons, which it turns out Charlie sent to help the four, they had split up to find Ron and Hermione. Fred and George went around to check out a giant pen that they had seen earlier and Ginny and Harry went to check out the strange cargo train. However, even after they had checked seven compartments of the long train, they found not one hint that Ron and Hermione had been there at all.
Armed with their supplies from the twins, they marched onto the next compartment, both of them wondering if they were even still alive. Ginny, however, somehow knew that her brother and friend were still alive.
"I just know they are!" she half shouted at Harry and half to reassure herself. "I have that gut feeling that tells me that they're alive."
"Ginny," Harry moaned, "I want to believe that their alive as much as you do. But, they've been gone for over two weeks. If Voldemort's death eaters-"
"-well, you're just gonna have to trust me!" she spat back.
Harry looked despairingly around the empty compartment, but Ginny didn't have any sympathy to send to him at the moment. She had been on the exploding point this entire trip, which she noticed, was not at all like her normal self. Ginny knew that her normal temperament would not return until Hermione and Ron were found, safe and sound.
Ginny heard a long sigh from across the room. Harry had sat down on a wooden crate in the far corner, his head in his dirty hands. Some of her normal self came back for that moment. Harry was one of her friends and he cared about Ron and Hermione as much as she did. For a few moments, she felt extremely guilty about treating him like rubbish. Then, she walked over and knelt next to him.
"Hey," she said quietly, "I'm sorry that I got angry at you. It's not your fault that they-"
"Yes it is." He mumbled his head still in his hands.
"How on earth can this be your fault?" Ginny asked worried that she already knew the answer.
"They are friends of mine so they were obvious victims of Voldemort and his death eaters." He moaned. "I should have seen this coming. I could have even stopped it."
"Stop!" Ginny shouted, now extremely angry. "No one blames you for this. They don't blame you for this! Being your friend is what brings us all together. You are the heart of us all, Harry. Hermione and Ron were predestined to have this happened. You did not cause it. Not one person did, except for You-Know…Vol-Voldemort."
Harry lifted his head and gazed at Ginny in astonishment. She had never said Voldemort's name aloud before. It was this that brought him to his senses. She was right. He was not the one responsible. The death eaters and Voldemort were to blame. Not him, not him.
Harry reached out his hand and grabbed Ginny's in his own. She looked up at him with teary eyes and they both began to mourn for their missing friends. Eventually, Ginny cried herself into the sleep that turned into the solution to their present problem.
Ginny walked through a compartment of the train. She knew that something was behind the door that she wanted more than anything else. She reached for the sliding door that lead to the next room and opened it with a loud screech. As soon as she walked in, she gave a cry of surprise.
Ron was standing right in front of her, a smile creeping on his face.
"Ron!" she shouted astonished at her find.
She wanted to run to her brother, to hug him, to never let him leave her sight again. But before she could take one step near him, he held up a hand to stop her.
"Ginny, I don't have much time." He said in a far away voice. "Listen carefully. Hermione and I are alright. We are in a few compartments down from where you are now. You and Harry need to hurry and get to us and unlock the door. We need to get our friends and then we can try and escape without a commotion from the death eaters. Be alert and make sure that you're not seen by anyone.
"We're waiting for you Ginny, my brave sister."
And with a proud smile on his face, Ron's figure disappeared from view. Ginny tried to catch her brother's evaporated form but before she could, a distant voice that sounded like Harry's pulled her from her slumber.
"Ginny, wake up!" Harry whispered.
She sat up, noticing that she was panting and she had broken into a cold sweat.
"Ginny what happened?" He asked more urgently.
She looked at Harry and her message came out in a tiny hiss.
"What?" he asked, leaning closer to hear.
"I know where Ron and Hermione are." She whispered again.

Also, i'm taking a poll on what the nextchapter should be based on.Do you all want it from Fred and George's POV, Ginny and Harry, Chay and Mica,Ron and Hermione, or Liz and Jeremy?Which ever one gets the most votes,I will do.
You all are awesome!
By the way, if you like Lion King, read Kiara32 story, The Lion King 3: Royal Journey. It is an amazingly written story and has a great story line. By the way, I don't mind at all that you recommended my story. Thanks!
