Chapter 11
"Where are we going?" Draco asked.
"To see Luna," Harry said.
"Why?" Draco asked.
"Do you not remember?" Harry asked with a laugh.
"Remember what?"
"Luna's familiar is a dragon."
"So?"
"So we can use the dragon to catch up to Hermione."
"Oh," Draco said with another mental slap.
Harry knocked on a painting until Luna answered.
"Luna we need to borrow your dragon," Harry said.
'What a way to get right to the point,' Draco thought.
"Why?" Luna asked.
"Hermione went to Aracha's Manor to get Dobby back and we need to stop her. You can come if you want," Harry explained.
"Hermione? As in Draco's familiar?" Luna asked. Harry and Draco nodded and waited for her answer.
'That cute cat girl went after a house elf? Hm,' Luna thought. "Alright. Sapphire is in the stable," Luna said as she closed the painting. The boys followed her to the stables and to her dragon. She got Sapphire ready to fly and then motioned the boys over. They all climbed on the dragon and took off in the direction of the Aracha's Manor.
By the time they reached the manor, Hermione was already inside and fighting Lord Aracha. She seemed to be winning, but Lord Aracha was not giving up either.
"Hermione, stop!" Draco ordered. She either didn't hear him, or she was ignoring him. Draco rushed over to Hermione and wrapped his arms around her waist.
"Let go!" Hermione yelled at him.
"No! You have to stop!" Draco yelled back. Hermione struggled to get free, but Draco held her tightly.
"I have to save Dobby!" Hermione yelled.
"I'm not gonna let you get hurt!" Draco yelled.
"I'll be fine! Let me go!" Hermione yelled.
"EVERYONE STOP!" Luna screamed. Everyone, including Lord Aracha, stopped instantly. They all looked over at Luna. "Is there any way you would be willing to return Dobby to us?" Luna asked Lord Aracha.
Lord Aracha thought it over for a few moments before answering, "Yes. I will give Dobby to you if you will give me something valuable in return."
"And what would you like?" Luna asked.
"Let's go to my office and negotiate," Lord Aracha said. Luna and Harry followed Lord Aracha to his office. A while later they came out with Dobby. Dobby ran over to Hermione and hugged her.
"Dobby! I missed you," Hermione said as she held the little house elf.
"Dobby missed you too, miss," Dobby said.
"Good now let's go," Draco said with obvious annoyance in his voice. Hermione stuck her tongue out at him when his back was turned.
"Sapphire, will you take us back to Hogwarts?" Luna asked.
"You have to ask your familiar for permission?" Harry asked.
"No, but I prefer to," Luna explained.
They all climbed onto Sapphire's back and she flew them back to Hogwarts. It was then that Draco realized something.
"Why did we take time to borrow the dragon, when we could have used our brooms?" Draco asked. No one had an answer. Hermione started laughing which made Dobby and then Luna laugh too. Harry chuckled a bit and Draco just smiled slightly.
"So what did you trade for Dobby?" Hermione asked.
"Um…you don't really want to know," Luna said with a nervous laugh.
"Huh?" Hermione asked. She tilted her head slightly to the side and she looked like a kitten.
"So cute!" Luna said as she grabbed Hermione and hugged her tightly. Harry and Draco thought the same thing that Luna had said. Draco was annoyed that Luna was holding Hermione and he tried to hide it, but he wasn't very successful.
As soon as they arrived at Hogwarts, Draco took Hermione back to his room. Dobby headed to the kitchen and Luna and Harry went back to their rooms. Draco warned Hermione not to do something so stupid again and they went to bed.
