Draco crashed to the floor. He lay there for a minute dazed before someone grabbed his arm and hauled him to his feet. He opened his eyes and was met with Ginny's annoyed/annoying face. 

"Come on we don't have much time." She said

Draco looked around. They were in a forest. The trees loomed over them. They were so thick you could barely see the sun light coming through them. Draco got a sinking feeling. "Ginny. Where are we?" 

Ginny rolled her eyes. (Seems like she does that a lot.) "I would like you to use your brilliant sleuthing skills and figure that out." She drawled sarcastically. 

Draco chose to ignore her. There were more important things to worry about right now. They were in the forbidden forest. Something occurred to Draco. It sparked panic and might I add a bit of fear in him

"Ginny?" He said again. She was inspecting some bug or whatever on the ground. "Hm?"

"What year is it?"

Ginny smiled. "Your finally catching on." 

Draco stared at her his mouth hanging open. "So that's the plan? Go back in time to the day when  he was killed so we can be killed too! Are you insane!"

Ginny rolled her eyes once again. "No, stupid. This is about a week before it happened. We are going to stop it before it happens." She looked very determined. 

Draco sighed. "And how exactly do you plan to do that?" 

Ginny laughed but then became serious. "I have no clue." 

Draco was severely pissed. "You made me travel back in fucking time just to save Harry Fucking Potter, and you have no fucking idea what your doing! Its a fucking death trap!" 

You've got to calm down and trust me." Ginny said. "It will figure itself out. All we have to focus on is finding Harry. We can bring him back to the future with us." 

She looked so hopeful which is what really hurt Draco. "Look Ginny." He said gently. "That wont work. None of this will work. Harry has to kill The Dark Lord. If he doesn't then the wizarding and muggle worlds have no future." 

All of Ginny's toughness melted away. Standing there in that forest she looked so helpless and sad. There were tears in her eyes. 

Draco felt a knew sense of determination. "But," Ginny looked up. "There is one way. Its what I thought you were originally thinking. We have to kill Voldemort." He cringed at the name. 

Ginny nodded. "It wont be easy she warned. And, there is a big possibility we will die."

Draco swallowed. "Its worth it." He decided. "After all, without Potter, who am I to torment?" He smiled. Ginny laughed quietly.   

Ginny got an idea. "We can't do this by ourselves. I know its really dangerous for people in the past to see those from the future but what if we got help. We could somehow explain the situation to Ron and Hermione. Maybe even Neville and Luna!" 

"Oh!" Draco exclaimed. "We can ask Pansy and Blaise too!" 

Ginny grimaced. "What makes you think they would help? Their Slytherins." 

Draco cleared his throat. 

Ginny scoffed. "Well your in love with Harry so that doesn't count." She said 

Draco sputtered. "W, w, w, what? Are you insane? I'm most certainly not in love with him!"

Ginny smiled. "Suuure. Now come on were wasting time." She started to head for the edge of the forest.
