First Duel - A Hinny FanFiction

2 - The Duel

Harry's POV

-----------------------

I was on my way to my Defense Against the Dark Arts class. Ginny stopped me in the hallway and asked me , "Please tell me you were not the one who went around telling everyone me and Dean were snogging in The Three Broomsticks last week?"

I replied, "Why would I ever do that to you? But when you find out who did, tell me please. I'll take care of it."

"No! You are not going to hur---" Ginny said as I cut her off quickly.

"I never said I was going to hurt someone, I'm just sticking up for you."

"Oh, okay then. I'll tell you when I find out."

"Sounds gre--" And with that , she was gone. No matter how mad I was at her, I always have to stick up for her.

I walked into Professor Snape's room, our DATDA teacher, and I was late again.

"Ten points from Gryffindor." Snape said in a demanding voice with a straight face.

"Why is it always us?" Harry whispered to his partner, Neville Longbottom. In the distance, you could hear Draco Malfoy, Snape's favorite student, in the background snickering.

"Okay class." Professor said as he scanned the room with squinted eyes, and still, a straight face.

"Ms. Weasley. How about you get up here and show us what you got." And she walked up to the panel, waiting for her opponent to be picked.

"Now. Any volunteers to challenge Ms. Weasley in a duel." Both Ginny and Snape's eyes scanned the room. Suddenly, they both saw one particular hand go up. It was my hand.

"Ah, yes. Potter" Snape said is a sassy, snakey tone of voice. There was a strict policy that only boys duel other boys and girls only duel other girls.

"Potter, Potter, Potter. Don't you know you can only duel someone of your own gender? So that means you can only duel other boys. And if my calculations are correct, Ms. Weasley here is a girl. Correct?" I just nodded back to Snape.

The truth is, the reason I want to due her so bad is because I'm mad at her. I want to prove to her that I'm better at her than something, despite on who her boyfriend is. I have no intention of harming her.

"But, since little ol' Ginny here is so good at this, I will make this exception only this once. Now, get your measly little self up here, Potter." Snape hissed and directed me up and beside Ginny.

"I don't want to hurt you." I said.

"I wouldn't get too cocky Mr. Potter." Ginny snapped back unexpectedly. All I heared next, was the whole class cheering on Ginny.

"Okay Ms. Weasley. Mr. Potter. Wands at the ready. You may begin." Snape said as he backed away giving us space..

"Confundus!" Ginny yelled at me. 

I looked around the room confused. Then, I blurted out, "Rictusempra!" Ginny started laughing uncontrollably. Before she could gather herself together, I then yelled, "Expelliarmus!" She dropped her wand, then stopped laughing. She quickly reached down and snatched it back up,

"Confringo!" Ginny yelled, one last time before she realized the harm it could have done to me. I saw the fire inch forwards, and forwards, until someone suddenly yelled, "Nox!" It was Draco.

"Draco, I was enjoying this!" Neville explained to him.

"Continue now." Draco said going to the back of the room, with a smirk on his face.

We both got back up, put our wands at the ready and began to duel some more.

"Wingardium Leviosa!" My wand started to float, as Ginny yelled that at me. She then threw it all the way to the back, where Draco had caught it.

She followed up with the last spell. She yelled, "Stupefy!!" and I got knocked out just like that. I got dizzy, and all I saw was black. All I could hear is the cheering and clapping of the others.

Ginny's POV

---------------------

"Stupefy!!" I yelled as I see Harry fly off the panel and onto the floor. We all rush over to him to make sure he is okay. We go to see him completely knocked out.

"What did you do Weasley? You guys are always getting into trouble. I mean look at your older brothers!" Draco yelled as he picked up Harry's head and put it into his lap.

"Why do you care, Malfoy? I thought you hated Harry Potter?" I snapped back sassily, wondering why Draco had a sudden interest in Harry's life.

"Professor Snape!" Neville, Hermione, and Ron yelled in sync.

"Ah yes, I'm coming." He responded, pushing his way through the crowd around Harry. 

I bent down to Harry, took him from Draco's lap, and busted out into tears. I didn't mean to hurt him. I really didn't.

"Now, Ginny dear. What have I told you about using Stupefy?" Ginny went to answer his question but he just interrupted her and said, "Yes, you are not allowed to use that particular spell, yet. Ten points from Gryffindor. Keep that up and you'll come last in the house cup race."

"We need to take him to Madam Pomfrey! Now!" I yelled, eager to get him their as soon as possible.

"Yes. Me and Ginny will take him up there right now and explain to Madam Pomfrey exactly what happened." Draco said suddenly.

"Very well. Malfoy, Ginny, take Potter to Madam Pomfrey. As for everyone else, class is dismissed." Snape projected to all of us.

As for me and Malfoy, we did exactly what we were told to do. Take Harry to Madam Pomfrey and explain to her exactly what happened.
