This is the first story I write after many years of just reading and reviewing on this site. I am excited to finally be taking the journey of a ff writer.

This story is part of a trilogy of sorts. I plan to make two more stories with two other of my favorite HP couples(Harry/Hermione and Draco/Ginny) about what happens during the horcrux hunt for each group and then merge them together on another story.

For this part we will explore what happens to Ron after he leaves the trio and is caught by Snatchers, among them Pansy Parkinson. I am not really sure how I came to like this couple but I have read a few wonderful stories with this pairing and fell in love. Enjoy!

Chapter 1

As soon as Ron Disapparated from the campsite, he regretted deserting his friends. He just felt so angry that after all of this time of searching, they were about as close to finding another horcrux as Snape was to washing his hair. And to add to the task, they now had to search for the bloody sword of Gryffindor. All of this just became too much for him especially because he had been wearing the locket while these thoughts were going through his mind.

Now that he was able to see things more clearly, he knew that he shouldn't have left. He promised that he would help Harry with the horcrux hunt and that's what he would do. He was about to Apparate back to his friends when he heard some noise coming from the forest. About four or five men approached and surrounded him. A huge guy, who by the way he smelled, must be part troll, grabbed Ron.

"Well, well, what do we have here? What's a mudblood doing wandering about these parts of the forest? It's dangerous to be out in the open for your lot," said a massive guy who seemed to be the leader of this group.

It was dark out and Ron could hardly make out his captors. With the aid of the moonlight, he was able to see that he was surrounded by four really big guys and was being held by the guy who smelled like a troll. Not too far off he could see more men approaching from what looked like their camp.

"I'm not a mudblood," said Ron defiantly, "I am a pureblood."

"Right, if you were a pureblood you would not be out in these parts of the woods. You must be another one of those mudbloods that has run away to avoid having to register with the Ministry. We will surely get a good reward for bringing you in," said massive guy.

Ron couldn't tell him who he really was to prove his blood status so he told him the first name he could think of, "I am a pureblood. My name is Stan Shunpike."

This caused quite the commotion amongst the men as they tried to figure out if he really was Stan. Soon, an argument started and two men started a fight. Others soon joined the chaos and Ron managed to hit his captor and take his wand away. He was about to disarm the guy holding his wand when he was kicked in the shin and was knocked down. The massive guy called the group to order and the troll-smelling guy grabbed him again and this time bound his hands.

"We should teach this mudblood a lesson before taking him in to collect our reward," said another guy.

"Don't hurt him. I know who this is. He's Ronald Weasley, Harry Potter's best friend. If we keep him here with us he may be able to lead us straight to Potter," shouted a female voice. The girl approached the group and as she came into the limited light he could see the voice belonged to none other than Pansy Parkinson.

Let me know what you think :)
