Hinny, A Beginning (BOOK 1 OF HINNY THROUGH THE YEARS)

The Battle of Hogwarts

I don't own any of the characters. All credit goes to the Epic J.K. Rowling of course and always.

Ginny

"Stupefy!" We heard and everyone ducked on the large staircase, going up at the end of the large hall. I spotted Harry.

"Harry!" Neville called out, running up with me.

"Neville! Ginny!" He took my hand as we reached.

"Have you seen Luna?" Neville asked, ecstacy in his voice.

"Luna?" I paused and questioned.

"I'm mad for her! I should probably tell her, since we'll probably both be dead by dawn!" He yelled running farther up, astonishingly very happy.

"Where are you going?" I caught my breath.

"Room of Requirements." He answered.

"There." I pointed at the stairs going down to my left. We ran together down through the empty hall, rushing through and dodging ceiling cement falling down on us. We reached the end and I held my breath. He closed his eyes and suddenly the door appeared. He pushed it open and we were in the storage part of the room.

"Diadem?" I asked as we walked through the piles of unused stuff.

"Yeah." He nodded.

"Okay. Close your eyes, Harry. Listen for it." I squeezed his fingers and let us catch our breath. He exhaled a loud one and closed his eyes. I stared at him quietly. He was bleeding from his jaw and I felt terrified that he was in the middle of all of this. The overwhelming feeling of realization blanketed me but i blinked my eyes hard, pushing it away. The last thing, any of us needed was heart breaking emotions.

"I hear it." He opened his eyes with a gasp.

"Where?"

He led me to around the mountain of junk beside us. He stopped by a black velvet box, right at the bottom. He gulped and looked at me. I nodded and for some reason pointed my wand at it. He opened it, revealing a beautiful silver diadem. A raven crested and carved on top with a blue diamond sparkling under it.

"This?" I asked to confirm. He nodded. He'd just picked it up when we heard a voice.

"Well, well. What brings you here, Potter?" Draco stood with his wand pointed at us. Goyle and Blaze behind him with their's raised as well.

"What are you?" I asked, joining the conversation.

"You seem to keep popping up, Weasley." Draco spat.

"What are you doing here, Malfoy?" Harry asked, standing in front of me.

"You have something of mine. I'd like it back."

"What wrong with the one you have?" Harry spoke about his wand.

"Its my mothers. It's powerful but its not the same. Doesn't seem to understand me. You know what I mean?" His brow twitched.

"Why didnt you tell her?" Harry asked.

The smug look on his face disappeared. "Bellatrix. Why didnt you tell her? You knew it was me. You didn't tell her."

He didnt say anything. Crabbe leaned in and whispered something to him. By the bitter look on Crabbe's face, something didn't feel right. I raised my wand slightly.

"Harry." I whispered to warn. He nodded slightly. Harry moved a hand to touch his wand.

"Easy." Draco muttered.
