Chapter Seven:
Ginny and Dobby
A/N: I didn't really like this chapter when I first wrote it, and considered dropping it altogether, but a friend of mine said it was a good chapter and that I should keep it. It's a VERY short chapter but please Read and Review, I just don't get enough of those! I would really like to know what you all think of my FanFic so far!
Dobby appeared before Ginerva Potter looking absolutely terrified. Ginny merely giggled, "Relax Dobby, you're not in any trouble!"
"But why does Mistress summon Dobby away from home?" asked Dobby, "Does Mistress Geeeenny Potter feel Dobby is unable to properly serve Master Harry Potter, who freed Dobby from bad wizard family?"
Ginny laughed, "No Dobby, it's not that at all! It's just that Harry is just more persistent and clever than Hermione and I anticipated," she pulled out a glowing white orb. "Hermione gave me this orb to monitor the Dueling Practice Room. When it's glowing white all the charms are in place. It turns black and stops glowing when Hermione removes them. It glows blue when someone removes the charms, but it's specifically tuned to Harry, so it turns green when he is trying to get past the wards put in place, and red when he brings them down. When Winky came here with Harry's invisibility cloak and the orb turned blue I immediately knew what had happened, so I sent Kreacher to keep Harry from entering the room and Winky to bring you here."
"Dobby will gladly punish himself if Master Harry Potter's Geeeenny wishes Dobby to!" Dobby told her solemnly.
"Dobby you will do know such thing!" admonished Ginny, "You were only trying to help Harry, but he really needs his rest, and if he keeps it up I am going to end up hexing him into next week!"
"Mistress Geeeenny is so kind, just like Master Harry Potter! Dobby is proud to serve such kind and generous masters!" praised Dobby, "Dobby sees everyday how Mistress Geeeenny makes Harry Potter so overfilled with happiness!"
Ginny could not help but blush, "Thank you Dobby."
She set the orb on the desk and gave Dobby a small hug. The orb started glowing bright green and then red. The orb then started to crack with beams of light coming out of each crack. Ginny ducked under her desk as the orb exploded. She attempted to apparate home, and then she remembered she couldn't because of all the anti-apparation wards she and Hermione placed on number 12 Grimmauld Place.
"Dobby we need to get home now, but with all the extra charms on the house I can't apparate there!" said Ginny slightly panicked.
"Just hold one to Dobby's hand!" said Dobby.
"With a pop, Ginny and Dobby went back to number 12 Grimmauld Place.
