A/N: Hello people! Welcome to the 2nd to last chapter! I just noticed that throughout this fic, i have not mentioned two of my favorite characters- Nevile and Luna! How forgetful of me! Well, they're gonna be in this chapter because i love Neville and Luna. (--smiles--) Oh well, enough of that, now ON with the story! (PS. SORRY FOR THE LATENESS! I got caught up in writing to my friend in china, so it's late, but my goal is for it to be finished before the fifth of September.)
Disclaimer: I own nothing, ya know why? A) I am not as old as J.K. Rowling (not that she's SUPER old or anything, but she is older than me) B) I'm not brittish, at all, i have a US accent, sad ain't it? C) I am pale D) I have blackish brown hair, not blonde hair, sorry.

Thank you Roddy Doyle, i owe you one.
The Last Line of the Last Chapter:
"So," Katie started after a slight pause, "Who's next?"

Ginny stood up, "That," she smirked, "would be me."
"Alright what's your plan?" Hermione asked.
"Well…" Ginny started.

Luna Lovegood was seated at the Ravenclaw table at lunch, reading a copy of the Quibbler, her radish earrings on the table because they were hurting her ears. A figure appeared beside the blonde girl, that figure had a shock of neon orange hair, long, down to her back-side. She was wearing a pair of ripped jeans and a green J. Crew tank top.
"Hey Lu," the orange haired girl said, sitting down next to Luna.
"Oh, it's only you, Charlotte," Luna put down her magazine, "What brings you to the Ravenclaw table this fine afternoon?"
"Well, those Gryffindors are too predictable, I need some more intelligent people. People who know about Winthrop's secret girlfriend," Bumbery said in a low whisper.
"Ah yes, him and Rumba are doing quite well, and so are the Gigglers," Luna said solemnly.
"That's good, about Rumba and the Gigglers," Bumbery brought her voice down even lower, "have the Gigglers pulled 'their treatment' recently?"
"Sadly, no, that treatment was very entertaining," Luna said shaking her head.
"Did you hear about the time when Filtch-"
"Yeah, that was priceless, especially when Mrs. Norris got it too!"
"Oh yeah, oh look at the time, I gotta run- you know yoga," Bumbery sprinted out of the Great Hall as Oliver sat down at the Gryffindor table. But then, she came back, to take her toast with her, Luna shook her head, same old Charlotte, she thought.

"Crikie," Lee said in a bad Australian accent and a stage whisper, "I'm here with Ginny Weasley, and we're hunting the rare Charlottis Bumberiousis and Oliverous Woodus."
"Would you please stop with the commentary Lee!" Ginny growled.
"Since you asked so politely, I'll just narrate in my head, thank you very much," Lee sounded offended, but Ginny knew he was joking.
Ginny Weasley and I are currenly at the Astronomy Tower, in search of the rare Charlottis Bumberious practicing her yoga, but it looks like she is practicing somewhere else, Lee narrated in his head, but spoke aloud, "This is taking way too long, and I'm hungry, let's go to the Great Hall and see if we find them there."
"Sure," Ginny sighed reluctantly, but then cracked a grin as they started walking down the stairs, "We are here to observe the rareLeeus Jordanious on his way to feed," she narrated, in a mocking tone.
"Ha ha, very funny," Lee mock-glared and playfully punched her in the arm, "You know very well that it's my job to narrate!"

After Oliver had eaten, he decided to go to the library for a change, he rarely went there, but he decided that it would be a good time to re-read Quidditch Through the Ages, no of course it had nothing to do with a certain currently-orange-haired-but-naturally-auburn-haired girl, of course not.
As he sat down, he noticed the absence of many Gryffindors, and wondered, is it because we're lazy but brave, and kinda stupid, I mean Hermione is one of the few really smart Gryffindors. The Ravenclaws are smart and clever by definition, the Huffelpuffs are hard-working and the Slytherins are ambitious, I guess we're the house more driven for acting before you think.
'Wow,' a voice spoke in his head, 'that's awful deep for a Gryffindor.'
Who are you?
'Me? Oh don't mind me, I'm your inner sarcasm, I rarely come out since you've filled your head with quidditch and sappy love songs about that Charlotte girl.'
WHAT DID YOU JUST SAY?
'Nothing, it's just your so bloody hopeless at expressing your emotions.'
Now Sarcasm, you're being awfully hard on the boy. Another voice joined Oliver's inner battle.
Now who are you?
Oh me, I'm Sympathy. That's my name and don't wear it out, I'll feel really bad for you if you do.
'Suck-up.'
I feel bad for you, having to degrade others too feel good about yourself, it's sad really. But back to the topic at hand, You need to win Charlotte over.
Whuddyoujussay?
To put it simply, you need to tell Charlotte how you feel, I suggest we formulate a plan.
Now who are you?
Intelligence, though I rarely come out, except when needed, like when formulating quidditch plays.
Ah.
Speaking of quidditch, go back to reading Quidditch Through the Ages, it was just getting good!
Ah, you must be my love of Quidditch.
That I am.
Wicked, I think I'll take Love of Quidditch's advise.
And so he did, filling away the argument at the back of his mind.

At the same time, Charlotte was doing yoga in The Room of Requirement, where else can you get a specialty yoga set, mat, books, and instructional DVD, along with a big screen TV, not to mention the privacy.
She had her currently neon orange hair swept into a pony-tail and was practicing her yoga religiously. It was wonderful, but she wasn't completely soothed, there was something nagging at the back of her mind, but she didn't know what. Instead she decided to ask for a whole bunch of chocolate chip cookies fresh from the oven. Now those were good!

Ginny searched and searched throughout the day, constantly hearing the narration of Lee, and finally she cracked. "I CAN'T TAKE IT ANYMORE!" She yelled, pulling at her hair in frustration, "I QUIT! This is it, maybe they just aren't meant to be."
"Now Ginny, let's go back and tell the others the sad news," Lee said, steering the frustrated girl back to Gryffindor tower.
- - -
The tower was silent as the two made there way into the Common Room, it seemed as if the failure was radiating and the others sensed it already.
"It didn't work did it?" Neville asked, you see he had been told about the plan when Ron needed someone to keep people from leaving the Common Room during his scheduled time.
"Nope," Ginny sighed.
"Well, I guess it's time to let fate run it's course," Hermione said mournfully.
There was a chorus of "Yeahs" and the Gryffindors floated solemnly up to their dorms, all except for one, Lee.
"It's my turn," Lee said with a sly grin on his face, "Just what I've been waiting for, I know I shall succeed! MUAHAHAHA!"
Some younger student's looked at him strangely, but Lee just continued his laugh, knowing for sure that he would win.
