Chapter 6

There was a pale wizard with long silvery blond hair putting the Cruciatus curse on...... Malfoy

He was also kicking him at the same time. Quickly she pointed her wand at the man and yelled "EXPELLIARMUS!"

The man flew back 20 feet, just missing a tree. Malfoy lay on the ground, panting and moaning in pain. She ran over to him, holding her wand and the man's wand, and knelt down next to him. "Oh my God! Malfoy, are you ok?"

A look of horror came over his face and he pushed her away. "What are you doing here? Get out of here!" The man was coming back. Malfoy started screaming crazily, "Go! Run! It was my fault! Don't hurt her! Run! Don't tell anyone! Just go!"

The man stopped walking and stood next to Malfoy and silenced him with a threatening look. Then, he suddenly kicked Maggie hard in the stomach. She clutched her stomach and fell to the ground, dropping the two wands. The man quickly picked the wands up and pointed his at her, eying her suspiciously.

"Who are you? How did you know to come here?"

Maggie trembled. "I'm Maggie, I go to school with him" She nodded at Malfoy and continued, "I go running around the Quidditch field every morning, for exercise, and today I heard sounds coming from the Forbidden Forest and came to investigate."

The man nodded and turned to Malfoy, "Is that true Draco?"

Malfoy trembled and nodded. "Yes, she's in my year at Hogwarts."

The man nodded again and looked at her suspiciously. "I'm feeling nice today so I won't do anything to you. You must promise never to speak of what happened this morning, do you understand?" Maggie nodded and he said, "Or there will be trouble." He glared at her and then Malfoy and then disaparated with a loud pop.

Maggie ran over to Malfoy, where he lay on the ground. His face was covered in blood, and the rest of him with big bruises everywhere. She sat down and put her hand on his forehead. "We should get you to Madame Pomffrey. You look horrible and you feel like you have a fever."

Malfoy nodded, "I feel so dizzy."

Maggie sighed, "Here, lean on me." Malfoy got up and let her help him hobble back to the castle. His face was dripping blood on the floor. Not many people were in the halls, but those who were stopped and stared.

When they got to the hospital wing, Madame Pomffrey quickly rushed Malfoy to a bed. "What happened this time Malfoy?" she said tiredly. Malfoy looked at Maggie, his eyes begging her not to tell. Maggie rolled her eyes and nodded thinking, fine, you owe me.

She smiled at Madame Pomffrey, "I was going out to run this morning, when I saw Malfoy by the Whomping Willow tree. He was stuck in it and the branches were cutting him and hitting him. I helped him get out. I tried lots of different spells but finally one worked." She finished out of breath and smiled sweetly.

Madame Pomffrey eyed Maggie suspiciously, "What spell did you use?"

She had to think quick. "Stupefy?" Madame raised her eyebrows and Maggie explained, "After I had frozen him I just pulled him out by his legs."

As unbelievable as the story sounded, Madame Pomffrey believed her and told her, "I always tell Albus to get rid of that terrible old tree, now that we don't need it anymore, but he insists on keeping it. I'm surprised no student has gotten hurt by it before."

Maggie winked at Malfoy and said, "Yes, but most Students are probably smart enough to stay away from it."

Madame Pomffrey nodded and said, "Well Thank you for saving him Miss Miller but you'd better go now. You don't want to be late for breakfast." Maggie nodded. "Did you thank her for saving you Malfoy?" Madame said glaring at Malfoy.

Malfoy looked at his hands and mumbled, "Thanks."

Maggie smiled, "You're welcome....Draco." Malfoy looked up trying not to smile.

She turned and left. She skipped down to the great hall where breakfast was already served; waffles, eggs and bacon. She quickly found Ron, Hermione and Harry. She decided to scare Harry, even though they were officially going out now. "Hey Harry!" she said, jumping on his lap and smiling at his shocked face. "I missed you so. Did you miss me?" She turned around for a second and winked at Ginny who smiled hesitantly back.

Harry looked very scared and finally muttered, "You know it."

After breakfast she, Hermione, and Ginny went to the bathroom to fix makeup and hair. As soon as they were in, all three of them burst out laughing. "Oh my God!" cried Hermione laughing, her face all red, "You should have seen the look on Harry's face!" Giggling they all did their special Halloween makeup; black lipstick, black eye shadow, very thick black eyeliner and mascara, and long black nails.

When they were done they stood looking in the mirror, admiring their work. Maggie laughed, "Let's go get 'em girls!"

Ginny didn't laugh. "Maggie, are you sure you don't like Harry or are starting to? Because you seem to really enjoy going out with him."

Maggie laughed at the worried look on Ginny's face. "No, of course not. It's just so much fun scaring him, like today at breakfast." Ginny still didn't look too sure. Maggie sighed, "I wasn't going to tell you--- I wanted to surprise you but---- I'm planning on breaking up with him. Tonight." She smiled slyly, "That is, if it's ok with you."

Ginny tried not to show how happy this made her. "Oh, cool. I never doubted you for a second."

Hermione rolled her eyes laughed and said, "Yea you did Gin! Maggie we should go, we don't want to be late for Potions!"

"Yea," said Maggie sarcastically, " 'cause it's just like the funniest class ever!"

The three of them left the bathroom. Maggie and Hermione walked over to where Harry and Ron were waiting, and Ginny went in the other direction to Transfiguration. Ron smiled at Hermione, "Hey, you look great." Harry just nodded at Maggie, and the four of them headed to Potions.

On the way there Ron whispered to Maggie, "Wow, you really scared Harry. That was so funny!" he laughed and so did Hermione and Maggie.

Harry glared at them. "What's so funny?!" he demanded.

"Umm..." Hermione stalled, then she pointed behind Maggie, "Look at Malfoy's face!"

Malfoy was limping towards them down the hallway, heading to Potions. His face wasn't fully healed yet. He had two black eyes, and his nose was red and swollen, as though it had been broken, which it had. He should be in the hospital resting. Why did he leave before she was done healing him? Maggie thought.

A/N: I don't know if I spelled Stupefy right, but you all know the spell I'm talking about. I'll update as soon as I can.
