HSWW Part 11

Ravenclaw Common Room

Cho walked in the common room surrounded by her usual bunch of giggling friends. They looked around and sat in the chairs by the fireplace.

Luna came skipping into the room, "Why hello everyone!"

Cho looked up and saw Luna, to be polite she replied, "Hey Luna."

Luna giggled and plopped down in a chair, "Today was such fun!"

Cho watched Luna sit down, "So what do you do today?"

"Why me?" Luna smiled, "I am involved in a plan to sneak in to the Ministry of Magic!"

Cho smiled, "Really?"

Luna hesitated as she worried if she had given away to much information, but continued to tell her story, "Why yes!" She replied brightly, "In fact, Draco Malfoy and his friends are there now!"

Cho smiled again, "Well good luck with that, I'm going to the kitchens." She turned to her friends who all stood up and left with her.

Luna smiled, "Goodbye!"

The Ministry of Magic

Pansy waited until she and Goyle were a ways away from Draco and Lucius before she spoke up. "You're father is on trial?!" She whispered

Goyle scrunched up his face in either anger of anguish,it was hard telling, and nodded before replying gruffly "Yeah" as they turned the corner.

"Hm. Sorry to hear that." Pansy replied, unsure as to whether he would appreciate sympathy for it. She glanced around at the surrounding doorways, "I wonder which one is Weasley's?" She muttered.

Goyle grunted in appreciation and looked arond and shrugged "I don't know..." he walked to the nearest door where a brass plate read Reginald Frakensten "Well the doors all have nametags..."

"Ah, think this one may be it." Pansy pointed to the door that read Arthur Weasley. She quietly walked over to the door as to not let Weasley hear her. She beckoned for Goyle to follow her, "Alright then, I've got an idea. You go in and talk to him about your father's trial while I steal a hair."

Goyle nodded and took a breath "Ok here I go."he knocked on the door after making sure Pansy was out of sight and waited for an answer.

Pansy and Goyle waited for a minute and didn't hear a response. "I don't think he's in there." Pansy mumbled. She walked in front of Goyle and cracked open the door. "Nope, nobody in here." She sighed, but continued to walk into the office.

Goyle walked in to the office behind her looking arond the office "Hmm...I wonder if there are any files in here that would be useful." he said walking over to an overflowing filing cabinet

"I wouldn't know." Pansy muttered as she looked all over the office for any sign of a hair.

Goyle shrugged and looked at the back of Mr.Weasly`s chair and noticed a single red hair on the back. "Here's one! You get it, I might drop it." He said, pointing to it with his fat fingers.

Pansy rolled her eyes and pulled out one of the small vials that Draco had borrowed from Snape earlier that day. She quickly picked Weasley's hair up and slid it into the vial. "There." She muttered at Goyle's incompetence. She stood up and placed the vial back into her robes, "Now all we need is to find three more." She stopped and slapped her forehead as something dawned on her, "Wait! What does he want us to do with the people that we're going to use?! Kidnap them?!"

Goyle shrugged and pulled a beaker of a purple liquid and swished it around "I was thinking we could use this." he nodded happily looking at Pansy "When we come back."

Pansy raised an eyebrow in surprise, "Good idea. We'll just have to make sure that we give them all that when we get back."

Goyle nodded absently watching the Sleeping draught swish around in the beaker smiling "Yeah who else are we gonna get?"

At that moment, a short, fat man came around the corner, whistling as he walked. He gave a friendly nod towards Pansy and Goyle.

Pansy gave a satisfied look after the man and smirked at Goyle. "Be my guest." She offered, nodding at Goyle, "But be discreate about it."

Goyle nodded and walked after the man slowly "Hey you!" Goyle shouted at the man, waiting for him to turn around and tapping him on the shoulder "You are Mr. Ignay arent you?" Goyle asked the man as he turned round

"Why yes I am, dear boy!" Mr. Ignay replied in a tone that Goyle and Pansy thought a bit too happy.

Goyle scowled back at him nodding "You were talking to my father this summer." he advanced a step "Right before his trial."

Mr. Ignay's face turned from a happy one to a shocked one. "You're Goyle's boy?"

Pansy shot a warning glance at Goyle. "Don't start." She mouthed to him.

Goyle nodded, his arm muscles tensing up and a vein on his neck pulsated a little "Why is it that after he spoke with you," he glared angrily at Mr. Ignay, ignoring Pansy "He was investigated by aurors?" Goyle said drawing up to his full height looking down upon Mr. Ignay angrily

"Ok then!" Pansy suddenly shouted, moving closer to Mr. Ignay. She carefully grabbed a hair from his head and stuck it into one of the vials in her robe pocket. "Sorry sir." She said after Mr. Ignay jumped a little at her as she grabbed the hair. "He's a bit tense, today is his father's trial."

"I see." Mr. Ignay nodded suspiciously, rubbing his head. "Well I best be off!" His mood turning cheerfully as he gave a smile to Pansy and tried his best to give a grin for Goyle. "Have a nice day." And he was off.

"The same to you." Pansy smiled back. When Mr. Ignay was out of sight, she turned and glared at Goyle, "You're lucky I saved you on that one, you could have gotten us kicked out, Draco would've killed you!"
