Ginny was furious. How dare her mother do that to her? If she didn't want to marry the bastard, then she shouldn't have to marry him!
Ginny ran up to her room with wind whipping behind her at her incredible speed. All of her brothers jumped out of the way. They had witnessed her wrath before; none of them wanted to be the receiver of it.
When Ginny reached her room, she slammed the door. Her mother was going to hear it when she came in, that was for sure! A light tap on the door made her spin toward it.
"Come in." She was ready to hit whomever was there. It wasn't either of her parents though. It was George. Jumping into his arms, Ginny began crying.
"Why George? Why is she making me do this?" George sat on Ginny's bed and comforted her. He could always make her feel better, no matter what.
"Shh. Ginny, it'll be ok." Ginny cuddled against his side and closed her eyes. She just wanted to stay there forever. Nothing could make her happier.
The door opened again and in popped Fred with his wide sad eyes. He had obviously just talked to Molly and Arthur. Ginny had to get married to that low life creep. Her nails dug into George's side as the tears came out quicker that they had before.
"Did they tell you why? Why do I have to marry him?"
Fred took Ginny by the hand and led her down the stairs and into the kitchen.
"Mother. Sit."
Molly sat. She knew that Ginny was upset and when she was upset it was best to just do as she asked. Arthur walked in from the parlor and sat beside her.
"Why? Mother, why do you want me to marry him?" Molly's eyes were watering now. She knew she had to tell her some day, and now was just the time.
"Ginny, when you were born and my parents found out, I was disowned. After Ron, they made me take a vow that I would never have any other children, since 'only animals have litters' and apparently, you were enough to make this family a litter. We used to be very high up in class; higher than the Malfoys even. When Lucius found out about our… 'problem,' he offered to help us, give us up to ten thousand galleons and bring us back up, but for a price. We had to promise that you would marry his son. We completely forgot up to today when we saw him at the door. We wanted to tell you first baby but we just-"
Ginny stood and fled from the room again. This time she had no intention of staying. She ran up to her room, broke her piggy bank and stuffed the 50 galleons she had saved into her bag. Next she stuffed in her clothes and as she mounted her pitiful broom, Ginny swore that she would never see this house again.
Knockturn Alley was a lot different from Diagon Alley. There were women standing around; ugly women; and one by one they hopped into the carriages of old men. There were young men too, playing card games on the ground. That was when she saw what she was looking for.
Grayman's Pub.
"This one's a keeper!" the bouncer shouted when Ginny downed her 23rd shot. Ginny stood, and staggered out the door when a tall man grabbed her around the hips.
"Oh no you don't. You're coming home with me!" Ginny wriggled and tried to escape, but it was no use. He was too strong. That was when she decided to scream. Everything went blank after that.
