Hogwarts that year had gotten the worst defence against the darks arts teachers that year, Dolores Umbridge. She was a nightmare, they didn't learn anything, all they did was read out a text book, Ginny didn't understand, Harry had said that Voldermort had returned, was the whole of the wizarding world to stupid to believe him? Why would he lie about something this huge, all because the ministry of magic and the daily prophet were calling him a liar, everyone was controlled by the media, and Ginny couldn't stand any minute of it. It was so shocking when she found out Harry yelled at Umbridge for saying it wasn't true, Umbridge was totally in the wrong, how dare she give Harry a detention for trying to warn unthankful idiots about Voldermort. It was especially Horrible when she saw a cut in Harry's arm, she hadn't seen it before Harry's detention. what was she doing to him?
Later on Harry started for a Defence against the dark arts group. Ginny loved the idea went to the first meeting. It was in the room of requirement, It was amazing, it looked like somebody had spent ages making it a calls room. And the meeting began.
"Well I've bee thinking about the sort of stuff we ought to do first and – er – what Hermione?" said Harry, Ginny looked at Hermione and she had her hand up, she lowered it and said
""I think we ought to have a leader,"
"Harry's leader" called Cho in an instant Ginny really, really hated Cho.
"Yes, but I think we ought to vote on it properly, It makes him formal and Gives him authority. So- everyone who thinks Harry ought to be our leader?" everybody put there hand up. "I also think we should have a name, it would promote feeling of team spirit unity don't you think?"
"Can we be the Anti-Umbridge league" Suggested Angelina
"Or the ministry of morons group?" asked Fred
"I was thinking more of a name that didn't tell everybody what we were up to, so we can refer to it outside meetings" said Hermione
"The Defence Association? The DA for short, so nobody knows what were talking about" said Cho. Ginny had to think of something better then that, then suddenly she had an idea.
"Yeah, the DA's good. Only lets make it stand for Dumbledore Army, because that's the ministry's worst fear" said Ginny, there was a lot of approving laughs and murmurs so that became the name. And as Hermione Pinned a piece of parchment saying Dumbledore's Army while Cho gave Ginny a dirty look the lesson began.
Towards Christmas Ginny was walking past the room of requirement when she heard some voices, it sounded Like Cho and her friends.
"so were doing this why Cho?" asked one of the girl
"Well, The lesson starts, Lesson leaves, everyone Goes, I stay here and start blubbering over Cedric, who I dumped like, Five minutes before the third task last year, Harry is still hear, see's me upset I say hey look there's mistletoe, He looks up see's me, and he's played right into my trap, then I'll have Him wrapped round my little Finger so I can mess him up. And that stupid cow Ginny, will lose all interest" Said Cho smirking, Ginny went towards her.
"YOU CANT TREAT HIM LIKE THAT, he's a human being, not a toy you can throw away, He's upset about you and he feels guilty because Cedric died, and you thinking of how you can toy with his emotions!" Yelled Ginny
"Oh get lost loser, oh and by the way, if you breathe so much as a word of this to anybody else, you'll regret it." Said Cho walking of.
A few minutes later after the DA lesson was over, she walked passed the door to the room of requirement to see Cho with tears coming from her eyes, with Harry's mouth locked tight round hers. Ginny saw them Kissing and Ran of in tears. Cho was going to use Harry and throw him away, and there was nothing she could do about it…
