Sweet 16...Chapter, that is

HELP, I AM LOST, I DONT KNOW WHERE I AM: Ok, so Ron woke up and Hermione let out all of her feelings. Ron didn't realise that
he had caused her so much pain. Ron and Mione spent christmas together. At breakfast the next day, Ginny let it slip that
Malfoy had gotten away. Mione had a plan to get back at him.

DISCLAIMER: It has been two whole weeks and i still havent got a letter saying they are mine, so I guess they ain't mine.

A/N: This is the last chapter ::Tara runs around her computer room crying like that chick from Not another teen movie:: It
has been such an honour writing this fic for all of you to read. I will be working on a few other peices after this one,
( a few Weasley twins stories are buzzin around in my head, and A really good one about an empty Quidditch arena and Oliver
Wood ::Tara wipes drool from keyboard before it short circuits::) Any way, with that out of my system, i hope you enjoy the
final chapter.

"Hermione Granger, you have gone stark raving crazy...that will never work" Harry exclaimed after Hermione had finished
explaining the plan.

"No..Harry, dont be so quick to judge, I think the craziness of the plan mixed with the stupidity of the person we are doing
it on, I will work really well" Ron replied, he smiled at Hermione and then back at the others across the table.

"Well, I am in, I think it will work, it is an excellent plan" Ginny replied and then elbowed Harry in the ribs.

"ow...ok, yeah, I do it" Harry caved

"Cool, so, I was thinking, maybe we should get Dumbledoor in on it..." Hermione began again.

*****

The next week of their holidays went so much quicker than the first. They majority of the time was spent working on the plan
and help Ron get back on track with his school work.

Dumbledoor had agreed to the plan, liking the students no violent approach to getting back at Malfoy. He agreed to take part
in the plan that was to be started on the day the students returned to Hogwarts.

When that day finally did arrive, no one had seemed to be having second thoughts as to what they had to do or say.

"You lot ready, the train would be in Hogsmade in about ten minutes" Hermione asked, they all nodded.

"Well, Ron this is your bit, you better get going" Ginny added. Ron hugged Hermione.

"Good luck" she whispered

"I dont need luck, I have you"

*****

Draco Malfoy starred out of the train window, waiting for the small wizarding town to come into view. He was finally returing
to Hogwarts. A school where he now had a god status with all of the slytherins. His fater had been so pleased when Draco had
returned home for christmas a murderer. The death eaters were now interested in his powers as a dark wizard.

But there was one thing that still ripped at his heart, he had hurt Hermione, but now, his main rival in that department, he
had her all to him self. Weasley was out of the way...forever.

A small owl was flying alongside of the Hogwarts express. It was more like a tiny ball of fluff with a beak. But the little
bird was flying determinedly towards Draco's compartment window. The little beak tapped on the window and Malfoy let it in.
The bird collapsed onto the opposite seat and tried to regain it regular breathing. Malfoy pulled the letter off of the
fluff balls leg and opened it.

Draco

I think that we should talk before we go back to class. Can you meet me in the classroom, I am sure you know the one, at
around 4 o'clock.

Hermione

He grinned to himself, she already wanted him. He scribbled a quick reply and sent it with the pitiful little bird. The train
began to slow, Hogsmade station was just ahead. The train stopped and kids began to file out of their compartments into the
narrow hallway. Draco stayed put, he would wait until they were all gone before he would move, he didn't exactly feel like
pushing and shoving a whole heap of little kids out of his way.

He glanced out the window again and watched as the kids began to pile onto the snow covered station. All of the students seem
ed to be happy to be back. They all giggled and talked, telling their friends everything that had happened to them over
christmas.

There were a whole lot of towns folk at the station. Old people sitting playing wizards chess, little kids playing exploding
snap, Teenagers with vivid red hair leaning against the station house...

Draco pulled away from the window and rubbed his eyes, then looked out again.

He was standing there, Ron Weasley was standing there, leaning casually agains the building of the station. Their eyes locked
for a second, and then Draco stod, gathered his things and walked out into the still crouded hall. He pushed past as many
people as possible and jumped out of the train door onto the station platform. Looked around, but he couldn't see the red
haired boy any where.

"Are you ok Malfoy?" Crabbe asked from behind him, Malfoy looked around wildly around the station.

"Yeah, man, you look like you have seen a ghost" Goyle added. All the colour drained from Draco's face...Had he seen a ghost?
Yes, he had seen a ghost, a ghost of Ron. That was ok, Ron would be the tpye of person to hang around the school after death.
Hanging out with Nearly Headless Nick and Peeves. That was a very Weasley thing to do.

"I think I did" Malfoy smiled at his lackys and then they all began walking towards the school.

*****

"That git is dumber than we all expected" Ron exclaimed as he entered the common room.

"So it worked?" Harry asked

"Yes, stage one of the plan has worked, I scared the crap out of him, I wish I had a camera to take a picture of his face.
It was priceless" Ron smiled

"So, I guess we have to get ready for part two" Ginny smiled at her brother and handed him the invisibility cloak.

*****

Hermione sat crying in the classromm she had asked Malfoy to meet her in. The door opened and she looked up, her bloodshot
eyes squinting against the light of the hallway.

"Draco, Is that you?" She asked weakly

"Yes Hermione, it's me" He replied

"Why did you do it Draco? Why did you kill Ron?" Hermione asked sadly.

"I dont know" Draco replied, his heart was breaking, he had really hurt her.

"Well, Malfoy, even with him gone, you better stay the hell away from me...cos Ron promissed to keep me safe, and even now,
he is a man of his word" Hermione began. Behind Malfoy, a hand came out of no where and settled onto his shoulder. Malfoy
screamed like a little girl and then took off out of the classroom. When the no more footsteps could be heard in the hall.
Hermione began to laugh, Ron pulled off the cloak and laughed along.

"Strong Mighty Slytherin...screams and runs like a little girl" Ron smiled

"That was to much fun, I cant wait till Harry and Ginny see him." Hermione replied, Ron threw the cloak back on and they made
their way back to the common room.

*****

"That, was so great" Hermione smiled at the others as her and a cloaked Ron re entered the common room. For the rest of
the plan to work, they had to keep Ron hidden until after the feast that night.

"Yeah, well, we better get to the feast then" Ginny smiled

"Yeah, lets go wins some Oscars with our excellent acting" harry joked, Hermione laughed, but Ginny looked at him weird.

"Win some what?"

*****

"It is good to see all of our students back again...but it is with great sadness that I announce that one of us will not be
returning to our school. Sixth year Gryffindor Ronald Weasley died on the holidays in a fatal accident. Our
thoughts and prayers lay with the Weasley family, especially his little sister Ginny, and his best friends Harry and
Hermione. He will be greatly missed by all" Dumbledoor announced at the feast that night, Hermione and Ginny had begun to cry
during the speech as well as a few other Gryffindor girls. There was an odd silence around the whole room, no body had begun
to eat, they were all letting the news sink in.

"Accident my ass...you killed him didn't you Draco" Goyle asked in a low whisper.

"Yeah" Malfoy replied and then glanced up at Dumbledoor who was consoling Madam Sprout. And there he was again. Ron Weasley
was stealing food from the teachers table.

"Crabbe, Goyle, is there any thing different about the teachers table?" Malfoy asked, they both looked and then shook their
head. Malfoy looked back up at the table. Ron was standing beside Hagrid, making a gesture like he was picking fleas and
lice out of his beard and eating them. Malfoy shook his head, rubbed his eyes and gulped down all of his pumpkin juice
before looking again. Ron was no longer at the teachers table.

But Ron was now walking between the Hufflepuff and Ravenclaw tables, picking at their food and lifting a goblet every now and
then to have a drink. No body seemed to even blink at the items being lifted off of the plates. Ron had moved on to the
Gryffindor table. He was playing with Ginnys piggy tales and then he stole Harry's glasses. Harry didn't even move. Draco
looked around, no body else was seeing this happening. Ron caught his eye again, dropping the glasses he was striding over
to the Slytherin table. Suddenly, something flashed to Malfoy's right. The patch on the robe beside him was changing. Now,
instead of the sliver snake, it was a picture of a snake killing a lion.

He looked at everybody's patches and then down at his own. The silver Slytherin snake was killing the gold gryffindor lion.
He then looked up at the slytherin banner, it to, was now a snake killing a lion. Draco stood and knocked over the goblet in
front of him, spilling pumpkin juice all over the table.

"Is there some thing wrong, Mr Malfoy?" Dumbledoor asked from the head table, every body in the great hall was now looking
at Draco.

"R..R..Ron W..We..Weasley" Draco stammered and pointed to where Ron was standing.

"Mr Malfoy, that is not a funny joke" Dumbledoor replied coldly

"This is not a joke, Ron, he is here, he picked lice out of Hagrid's beard and then he nicked food from the hufflepuffs and
Ravenclaws the he stole Potters glasses...I am not crazy sir" Malfoy exclaimed.

"oh...can any one else see Mr Weasley?" Dumbledoor asked, quite amused at Malfoy's outburst.

"No" was the collective answer

"Maybe, Mr Malfoy, you should go to the hospital wing, maybe they can help you be rid of this vision you are having"
Dumbledoor smiled sadly.

"It is not a vision...dont you see, I killed him, and now he is taking my sanity as revenge" Draco yelled at Dumbledoor.
Everybody gasped at what he said, even a few of the slytherins.

"Is that right?" Dumbledoor began. He smiled at Harry, Hermione and Ginny, the plan had worked.

"Yes, I killed him on the night of the yule ball...you have to belive me professor, he has come back to haunt me" Draco
exclaimed.

"Oh, I believe you" Dumbledoor replied and clapped his hands twice. The doors to the great hall swung open and two large
guards walked in.

"Draco Malfoy, we are taling you into the custody of the magic courts until the day that you will have trial in front of
the minister of magic" The first guard began and bound Draco's hands wilh a spell.

"You are being held under the charges of kidnapp and attemptive murder" the second guard stated.

"Attemptive murder?" Draco asked and then looked around the room. Ron had suddenly appeared, but this time, every one
could see him, there was collective gasp around the great hall.

"Hi Malfoy" Ron smiled and patted him on the back.

"What the hell is going on?" Malfoy asked

"Turns out I didn't die after all, Mione put a speel on everyone so that you were the only one you thought something weird
was going on, it broke when you spilled the juice...we got a confession out of you, and that was the whole idea" Ron
explained in a who-would-have-thought tone.

"And now you have a nice long sentence in Azkaban" Hermione added, standing beside Ron.

"Yeah, watch out for those dementors" Harry added

"And dont let them kiss you...unless they buy you dinner first" Ginny joked, The guards took Draco's arms and led them from
the great hall.

"I am going to get you Weasley, and your little mudblood girlfriend, you'll pay I sware" Draco screamed as he was dragged
away.

"Well, The plan worked" Harry smiled at his friends.

"yeah, doubting Potter" Ron replied

"Good to have you back Ron" Ginny smiled and she dragged Harry back to the table

"Yeah, Good to be back" He muttered

"You are my Hero, Ron Weasley" Hermione smiled

"And you are mine" Ron replied, kissing her softly.
