Once in his own chambers, Draco slammed the door and threw himself on his bed. His bedroom was his only sanctuary, the one place that no one-not even Lucius-would enter without his permission. The floor was dark wood, covered with a soft rug done in swirls of dark blue, silver, and emerald green; his bed was a large four-poster made of cherry wood with black curtains, a midnight blue bedspread, and green and silver throw pillows. Against one wall as a cherry wood desk with a matching chair, the seat upholstered in midnight blue silk, another wall was completely lined with bookcases full of knickknacks, pictures, and-of course-books, with a couple of chairs and a small reading table. His windows were framed with dark blue curtains, and overlooked his favorite garden.

After lying on his bed for a few minutes, Draco gave a heavy sigh and moved over to one of the windows. Pressing a hand to the glass, the scenery before him changed; instead of looking down at the sunlit gardens, he saw Harry standing at the entrance to the hedge maze, obviously unable to decide on a path to take. Over to the side, Draco spotted one of the dwarves keeping an eye on the brunette, and Draco smiled, then frowned as a new figure came into view.

"What is Lovegood doing with Harry?" he murmured, and then scowled when she took his hand, "She had better not be trying to make a move on him; Harry is mine." He watched as Harry and Luna talked for a few minutes, gesturing at the different paths, and then smirked when they chose the shadowy path. "You have to love that Gryffindor bravery," he laughed, "I knew he would chose that path; he's too suspicious by far, but that works for me!" Normally, the most intimidating path would be the shortest path to the center of the labyrinth, since most people would avoid it at all costs; however, Draco had spent years watching Harry Potter and knew his personality-he knew that Potter would choose the darkest path and so added more tricks, traps, and puzzles to keep the Gryffindor occupied. Smiling happily, Draco summoned one of his comfy chairs and sat down facing the window-turned-viewing screen, and then summoned a goblin to bring him a late lunch and some wine. Sighing in contentment, Draco sipped his wine and watched as Harry and Luna traversed the shadow path.

At first, not much happened; they came across a grove of trees hung with shadow vines, but when the plants attacked Luna waved her wand and turned them into purple sparkly scarfs; next there was a pit of snakes, but all Potter had to do was hiss at them for a few moments and they moved out of the way-damn Potter for being a bloody parselmouth! How could he have forgotten that Harry could speak to snakes? Then, they came upon a Sphinx, and Luna was able to solve the riddle with no problems. Draco sighed again, this time in frustration, and contemplated getting Luna out of the way; it wasn't fair for him that Luna had a wand-most of the obstacles could be overcome by a well-placed spell, which is why he told Potter not to bring his wand. No, he should probably wait to get Luna out of the way; she could be useful later on. Besides, Draco smirked, there were still many other traps on the path, and Harry was bound to fall into one of them any minute now…

"This has been too easy," Harry confided to Luna once they had passed the sphinx, "I mean, we've come across three obstacles, and managed to get past them with almost no effort; meeting the shadow snakes was actually fun! Either there's something really nasty up ahead, or Draco has seriously underestimated me."

"Hmm, it has been rather easy," Luna agreed, "Then again, I'm sure the prince didn't expect to see me here; I used the blibbering humdingers to confuse him."

"It's true that those vines probably would have given me a lot more trouble if I had been by myself since I don't have my wand," Harry conceded, "but still…something bad is ahead of us, I can just feel it."

"You worry too much," Luna laughed, "I have faith in you Harry; we'll make it through this. Oh, look!" She pointed to where the path split, "A crumple-horned snorkack! I have to get a picture of it for Daddy!" Before Harry could stop her, Luna took off skipping down the right-hand path, leaving him with no choice but to follow.

"Luna!" He called, running after the blonde girl, "Luna; wait for me!" It should have been an easy matter for him to catch up to the slight girl, but within seconds he had lost her to the mist covering the path. After a few moments, Harry ran straight into a thick cloud of fog and came to an abrupt stop, looking around to try and get his bearings. He took off his glasses and cleaned them, but he still wasn't able to see anything; the fog surrounding him was just too thick. "Luna!" His voice sounded muffled as he took a carful step forward, "Luna; where are you!" He heard a giggle up ahead and took a few hesitant steps in that direction. "Luna?" he called uncertainly, "Answer me Luna, please!" He continued to move forward at a slow pace, stopping occasionally to listen; anytime he stood still for too long he would hear that girlish giggle in front of him, but it was starting to unnerve him a little.

'This is not good,' Harry thought to himself, 'I'm surrounded by a deep mist, and I lost the only friend I have in this realm. What else can go wrong?'

"Looks like yeh lost yer friend," Harry started in surprise as the mist cleared a little to reveal Ystan standing in front of him, a self-satisfied smirk on his face, "I know where she is; guess yeh'll be needin' my help after all."

"What do you want?" Harry demanded, "I'm really tired of you showing up all the time, and I don't want your help, so go away."

"Yeh'll never git the girl back that way," the dwarf sneered, "Yeh need me and-" He was cut off as Harry grabbed him by his collar and slammed him into a tree.

"I'm not playing any games with you," Harry growled, "Luna is my friend, and if you know what's good for you you'll tell me where she is. You have five seconds before I call my friends the shadow snakes over here and give them an early supper."

"Yeh wouldn't dare," Ystan glared at him, "I know all about yer contract; if yeh kill me yeh automatically lose to Prince Draco."

"Do I look like I care?" Harry asked, "I will do whatever I have to in order to save Luna." He glared at the dwarf for another moment, and then began hissing. "Ssshaolin; I need your help, my friend." After a few moments there was a loud rustling sound, and a large shadow snake appeared; it was black with silver eyes and a grey diamond pattern on its back. She quickly slithered up Harry's arm to wrap around his shoulders. "Hello Ssshaolin, I'm sssorry to disssturb you."

"It'ss okay, Friend of Sssnakessss," the larger snake with silver eyes replied, "How can I be ssserviss?"

"Yeh can't do this!" Ystan protested, "Let me go, damn you! Prince Draco-"

"Is not here right now," Harry interrupted, "So, are you ready to tell me where my friend is?" He took a moment to hiss at Shaolin again, and she slithered off Harry's shoulders to wrap her coils around Ystan, effectively trapping him. "If he doessn't give me the information I need, you can have him for dinner," Harry said, "He did sssomething to my friend-"

"The blonde girl?" Shaolin demanded, and hissed angrily when Harry nodded an affirmative, "If the little moonbeam iss hurt thisss one ssshall sssuffer!"

"Okay!" Ystan cried, losing the gruff accent he had previously been speaking with, "I'll tell you where the girl is! Just call off your pet!"

"She's not my pet," Harry corrected, "Shaolin here is a friend of mine-and a friend of Luna as well; she's not very happy about you hurting Luna. If you tell me where she is right now, Shaolin might agree to let you go."

"What are you doing to my subject, Potter?" Harry briefly looked away from the dwarf to see Malfoy leaning nonchalantly against a tree, but he quickly returned to the task at hand.

"Go away, Malfoy," he said dismissively, "I'm busy here. Now Ystan, you were saying?" The dwarf looked over at his Prince, but then gasped as Shaolin tightened her coils. "Don't look at him; answer me or Shaolin will inject you with her venom-" here Shaolin obligingly opened her mouth in a wide hiss, showing off her fangs with a drop of venom on them, "-before 'Prince Malfoy' can save you. Now, for the last time, Where. Is. Luna?"

"She's just a little further on down the path!" Ystan cried, "I didn't hurt her; I swear! I just tricked her into getting trapped in a cage; it's hanging right over the path and there are pixies illuminating the cage, so you'll be able to see her! Now please; let me go!"

"Well, that's up to Shaolin here," Harry said, before consulting with the snake. "He sssayss that Luna iss sssafe, just trapped in a cage. Are you willing to let him go?"

"Very well," Shaolin agreed, "but warn him to keep away from you and the little moonbeam if he valuess hisss life." She released Ystan, and the dwarf immediately ran to hide behind Draco, who gave him a disgusted look as the shadow snake hissed a farewell and disappeared into the trees.

"Shaolin agreed to release you on the condition that you stay away from Luna and me," Harry informed the dwarf, "Next time you bother us, your life is forfeit. Now, get away from me so I can go rescue Luna." Ystan looked up at Draco, and ran off when the blonde boy nodded.

"Not so fast, Little Lion," Draco said, grabbing Harry's arm as he turned to leave, "Where do you think you're going?"

"Didn't I just say I'm going to rescue Luna?" Harry rolled his eyes, "Now let me go, Malfoy. Oh, and don't call me 'Little Lion'; you don't get to give me nicknames." He tried to pull away only to have Draco push him into a nearby tree, one hand on either side of the Gryffindor's face and his elbows resting on Harry's shoulders to keep him in place. 'Crap!' Harry thought, 'Malfoy is too close! Mmm, he smells really good, like cinnamon and –no! Focus, Harry!'

"I don't think so," Draco smirked at the brunette, "I have things to say to you, Potter. I want to know what you think you were doing to that dwarf."

"I was going to feed him to my friend Shaolin because he took Luna away," Harry replied, "It was the only way I could make him cooperate. Now can I go?" He pushed at Draco's chest, which only resulted in Draco grabbing his wrists and trapping them above Harry's head.

"That was very bad of you," Draco whispered in his ear, "You're not supposed to cause permanent harm to my subjects, remember?"

"And I didn't," Harry said, desperately trying not to be affected by Draco's close proximity, "but if he had harmed Luna, I would have killed him; contract be damned! No one hurts my friends, Malfoy; you should know that by now." He glared at the blonde, "If you don't let me go right now-"

"You are not in any position to be making threats," Draco pointed out, tightening his hold on Harry's wrists until the other boy grimaced in pain, and then he transferred both wrists to his left hand and put his other hand at the base of Harry's neck, "Besides, you still owe me a kiss, remember?" He placed a gentle kiss next to the brunette's ear, "Are you ready to pay up?"

"I don't have time for this!" Harry protested, "I have to get to Luna! Hey!" He cried out as Draco bit his ear harshly before pulling away to look down at him, "Dammit Malfoy! What was that for?" He glared at Draco, who was scowling angrily.

"Why do you keep talking about Lovegood?" Draco demanded, "Is she your girlfriend? Is that why you're in such a hurry to get to her Potter?" 'Stupid Potter!' He thought to himself, 'I can't believe he's thinking about Luna when I'm right here; he shouldn't be thinking about anyone but me!'

"What? No!" Harry replied, "Luna is just a friend; I-I don't see her that way because-" He abruptly snapped his mouth closed, cursing himself for the slip-up.

"Because…why?" Draco pressed, "Why aren't you interested in Lovegood? Is it because you're dating the Weaslette?" Harry just gave him a 'you're stupid look' and Malfoy laughed, then his eyes widened as he realized something. "You know Harry, I've never really seen you with a girl and everyone knows you've never had a girlfriend at school…"he leaned in close again so that he could whisper in Harry's ear, and relished the shivers that produced. "Tell me Harry-are you gay? Hmmm? Is that why you don't have a girlfriend?" He licked the shell of Harry's ear, and then proceeded to nibble on the younger boy's earlobe, causing Harry to gasp a little; Harry was embarrassed to note that his member was beginning to stir interestedly.

'Oh, Merlin!' Harry thought, 'That feels so good; how did Dra-Malfoy know to kiss me there?' He squirmed a little and fought back a blush, praying that Malfoy wouldn't notice his growing erection. 'Please don't let him look down! I need to get him away from me!'

"Yes, okay!" Harry gasped out, "I'm gay! Are you happy now, Malfoy?" He shook his head a little trying to dislodge Draco, but the blonde just chuckled and gripped the base of his neck a little tighter to keep him in place.

"Very happy, my little lion," Malfoy purred, nipping his earlobe one more time before stepping back, "Now, I suppose you should go rescue Lovegood; we'll discuss the kiss you owe me later." Harry took a deep, shaky breath and gave Draco a half-hearted glare before pushing away from the tree.

"I'm glad you're happy," Harry snapped, walking down the path, "Oh, and Malfoy? I'm not your lion!" The only response he got was Malfoy's laughter echoing all around him.

After leaving Draco behind, Harry stopped for a few minutes and closed his eyes to clear his mind as he adjusted his trousers to relieve some of the pressure on his erection. 'Damn him for playing with me like that!' he fumed, 'Stupid Malfoy, always bothering me…getting under my skin; he makes me crazy! And the way he stood there by the tree, all silvery and glowing, looking like some kind of sinful moon god-'

"What? No!" Harry shook himself out of those thoughts, "I can't think of Malfoy like that; he's just trying to distract me, and I can't let him. It doesn't matter how hot he is, Malfoy is off limits; his dad works for Voldemort! So, yeah-no more thinking of Malfoy; I need to find Luna and then solve this stupid labyrinth so I can get out of here." Satisfied with his decision, Harry opened his eyes and took off down the path to locate Luna.

After walking for a few minutes, Harry could make out the sound of someone humming and a pale blue glow on the path ahead.

"Luna?" He called, walking faster, "Luna! Is that you?" He began running full-out, and soon stepped into the circle of blue light where Luna was being held captive in a cage hanging about twenty feet above the path. "Luna! I've been worried about you! Are you okay?"

"Oh, Harry!" Luna peered out from between the bars of the cage, a look of surprise on her face, "What are you doing here? You look very flustered; have the cinnadoms been bothering you? They feed on and encourage anger you know."

"No, I was just running," Harry replied, "And what do you mean 'what am I doing here'? I was looking for you, of course! Did Ystan hurt you? If he did, I will kill that dwarf!"

"Oh no; I'm just fine," Luna replied, and then pouted, "The crumple horned snorkack got away though; do you think there are any more of them in the forest?"

"I'm sure there are," Harry said, "Now I just need to get you down from there. Hang on; it should just take a few minutes." Harry stepped back a little so he could get a better look at the cage, and saw that it was being held up by a thick vine, which was attached to a tree next to the path. Harry examined the vine, but decided it would be too dangerous to cut Luna down. "Okay, I'm going to climb up to you," he informed the blonde girl, "No, wait!" he pulled out the knife Sirius had given him, "Luna, I'm going to toss this up to you; this knife can undo any lock, so you'll be able to get out of there."

"Okay," Luna agreed, "I'm ready, Harry." Harry tossed the knife up and heard it land on the floor of the cage. A few minutes later, the cage door opened and Luna looked down at him. "Should I jump?"

"No," Harry shook his head, "Didn't you take one of those purple scarves with you?" Luna nodded and pulled the scarf out of her purse-and since when did she have a purse, Harry wondered absently. "Good; tie one end of the scarf to the bars, and then you can use that to climb down; I'll stand right here to catch you if you fall."

"I trust you," Luna smiled, and did as Harry suggested. Once she tied off the scarf, she carefully used it to climb down. She came to the bottom of the scarf when the ground was still about ten feet below her; looking at Harry she flashed him a brilliant smile and then let go. Harry managed to catch Luna, but fell to the ground in the process.

"A little warning would have been nice," Harry chastised, but Luna just giggled and stood up, offering Harry her hand. Harry waved it away and then got to his feet, "You're crazy," he shook his head at the Ravenclaw, "Come on Luna; we'd better get going." He took Luna's hand and started down the path, "Oh, and this time? No running off without me, okay?"

"Of course Harry," Luna agreed, "Oh, did I tell you Ystan took my wand? I really hope I can get it back." She frowned for a moment, but then resumed her humming.

"I'm sure we can get Malfoy to make Ystan give it back," Harry replied, "I can't imagine he would let that dwarf get away with stealing a witch's wand; we'll just have to make do without it for now. I wonder if the challenges will be harder to deal with now?" Luna just shrugged and smiled, skipping down the shadowy path, tugging on Harry's hand to make him keep up. Harry shook his head, but couldn't help laughing at the younger girl; she was like a ray of sunshine on this dark path, keeping him from obsessing about what creatures might be hiding in the trees around them and what traps might lie on the path ahead. On a normal day Harry would only pretend to care about Luna's ramblings, but today he found himself avidly listening as Luna told him all about the creatures only she could see on the path ahead-these ranged from snargles ("Strange, they don't usually travel so far from their mistletoe.") to blibbering humdingers and snarky snifflepods ("They really like vanilla, so be careful what type of shampoo you use.") It was because of this, that he didn't notice the next trap until it was too late.

"Oh, Harry; look out!" Luna cried, "It's a whole herd of cinnadoms!" The blonde girl squealed and pushed Harry out of the way of the invisible (and possibly non-existent) creatures, and they both fell into a large, squishy plant.

"Luna!" Harry protested, "Now look what you did!" He fought to get out of the plant, but found that the tendrils were wrapped tightly around his body. He struggled in panic for a moment before he recognized the plant as the one he had encountered in first year when going after the Sorcerer's Stone. "It's Devil's Snare!" He told Luna, forcing himself to relax.

"Oh yes," Luna agreed, "It makes a nice place for a nap as long as you don't toss and turn in your sleep. It also makes a wonderful door; shall we see what's on the other side Harry?"

"What are you talking about?" Harry demanded, but Luna just smiled and closed her eyes-looking for all the world like she was really taking a nap. "Luna are you really-Luna!" He cried out as the young girl was swallowed by the plant. "Luna!" he began struggling again, but found himself firmly held in the tendrils of Devil's Snare.

"Harry!" He could hear Luna's voice faintly, "Relax Harry! Just close your eyes and let go! It's the only way to escape the cinnadoms!" Taking a deep breath, Harry obeyed Luna's instructions and closed his eyes, forcefully slowing down his breathing.

"Hey!" Harry fell through the Devil's Snare and was startled out of his thoughts when he landed on the hard ground, "Ow! That hurt!" He rubbed his behind and felt around for his glasses which had fallen off.

"Here they are," Luna handed him his glasses and helped him to his feet, "It's lucky for us the fall wasn't very long," she commented, "unfortunately, the way up is much longer."

"That makes no sense," Harry snapped feeling somewhat irritated with the blonde girl for getting them in this mess, "the distance we fell has to be the same as-"he trailed off as he looked up and-and up and up-and was unable to see where they had fallen from, "Sometimes I hate magic," he grumbled, then looked at Luna, "So I guess we can't climb back up, which means we need to find another way out." He looked around, only to find that they were in a small, dark cavern that was almost perfectly circular with no windows or doors, and the only illumination came from small crystals on the walls that emitted a steady blue light.

"Oh, we won't be able to find a way out of here," Lana said, "This is an oubliette; it's a place-"

"Where they put people to be forgotten," Harry sighed, "So I guess that means we have to wait for Malfoy to show up and annoy us?"

"Yes, Prince Draco should be here shortly," Luna conceded, "I brought a pack of cards so we can play Exploding Snap while we wait. Oh wait! I also have tarot cards; would you like me to read your fortune instead?"

"Er, no thanks Luna," Harry said, "Exploding Snap will be fine." He walked around the cavern, trailing his hand along the wall while he waited for Luna to locate the cards. When Harry was halfway around the small cavern, he felt a small break in the wall and leaned forward to examine it closer. Feeling along the crack he realized it was a door of some sort, which meant there had to be a lock and…"Found it!" Harry shouted, excited, "Luna, there is a door here! Quick, bring me my knife and I'll be able to get us out!"

"Your knife?" Luna questioned, tilting her head to the side, "Oh! You mean the knife that unlocked the cage door?"

"Yes," Harry said, "Can you bring it to me, please?" He waited while Luna searched through her pockets and then her purse trying to locate the knife. After a few minutes she looked back at Harry, her silvery-grey eyes wide.

"I don't have it," she told Harry, "I put it in my jacket pocket when I opened the cage, but there's a hole in it now…it must have fallen out." Harry was silent for a minute, then he exploded.

"What?" He yelled, "You lost my knife? Sirius gave me that knife for Christmas! I can't believe you lost it Luna! Do you know how much that knife means to me? Dammit!" He slammed his fist into the cavern wall and then cursed again as the pain shot through his hand.

"I'm sorry," Luna whispered, "I didn't mean to lose your knife." Harry glared over at her, and saw that Luna's silvery eyes were bright with tears. "I promise I'll look for it when we get out of here." She sniffled a little and Harry felt his anger draining away.

"Oh, Luna," he sighed, "I'm not really mad at you; I'm just sad that it's missing. Come here." He tugged on Luna's hand and pulled her into a hug. "Don't cry "Little Moonbeam"; I'm sorry I yelled at you, it's just…that knife was one of the only things I had that Sirius gave me."

"I know," Luna cried into his shoulder, "and I'm really sorry; I know how much Sirius means to you and how much it hurt you to lose him. I will help you find the knife again; once I get my wand back I know I'll be able to find it."

"It's okay," Harry said, rubbing her back, "It was a shock to hear that the knife is missing, but I really shouldn't have overreacted; after all, I have a plan to get him back, I just need a little more power…"

"I'll help you get the power you need," Luna said, drying her eyes, "In fact, I know that you'll have the power to get him back soon." Harry cocked his head to the side and opened his mouth to ask how she knew he would get the power he needed, but then he just smiled and shook his head; Luna never would give a straight answer when she made predictions.

"That's good to know," he said, "Now, why don't we play Exploding Snap while we wait for someone to let us out of here?" Luna smiled in response and pulled out the cards, and they sat down to wait.

Back to Draco…

Draco smirked as he watched Harry storm off down the path; that had been a very productive encounter as far as the Slytherin was concerned-not only did he find out that Potter was gay, but he also managed to discomfort him, which was always fun. Yes, Draco loved being the only one who could get under Potter's skin, and the way he blushed…Merlin, that was sexy!

'Okay Draco, focus!' he told himself, 'There's plenty of time to daydream about Potter-no, Harry- later, like after he fails to solve the labyrinth. Right now, I need to take care of some business.'

"Ystan!" he called, and a moment later the dwarf appeared, bowing nervously to Draco.

"My Prince," he greeted, "You summoned me?"

"Yes," Draco said, "I want to know what you did to make Harry so…homicidal."

"I-I don't know, Highness," Ystan stammered, "I offered my assistance like always, but he refused me, and then I captured his friend and he tried to kill me!"

"Hmm, well Harry isn't usually suspicious of people, so you must have done something very wrong," he smirked as the dwarf trembled, "What did you do, show up randomly every time it looked like he was in trouble and offer to help?" His smirk widened as the dwarf paled, "You did; no wonder Potter didn't trust you! Well, did you take anything from Lady Lovegood?"

"Y-yes, sire," Ystan replied, and pulled out a wand, "I took her wand from her."

"Excellent," Draco said, taking the wand from him, "I suppose you aren't a total waste of space. Very well, from now on you are to have no contact with Harry or Lady Lovegood; I want you to follow them, and alert me immediately if they make it to the center of the labyrinth. Also, change the tunnel in the oubliette so that it will lead to the Golden Desert instead of back to the beginning of the labyrinth; right now the tunnel leads straight to the center of the labyrinth, but I don't want it to be that easy for him if he does fall into the oubliette."

"Yes, Prince Draco," Ystan bowed and turned to leave.

"Oh, and Ystan?" the dwarf looked back at Draco, "The next time you annoy Harry, I'll let him kill you-and if he doesn't kill you I will. Now, be gone!" Ystan gave a frightened squeal and ran off, leaving Draco to chuckle after him. "Now that that's taken care of, I suppose I should check in on Harry." He pulled a small orb out of his pocket and it expanded into a viewing screen, which showed Luna falling on top of Harry, knocking them both to the ground. He watched as they talked for a few minutes before they started back down the path. With the viewing screen he had he was able to hear the friend's conversation, and he shook his head at Luna's ramblings, although he did enjoy seeing the smile on Harry's face as he listened to the blonde girls chatter. He let his thoughts wander for a moment as he contemplated ways to get that smile aimed in his direction, but quickly looked back at the screen when he heard Luna yell; he was just in time to see her push Harry off the path-and into the Devil' Snare that hid the entrance to the oubliette. Draco grinned as he watched the two fall down into the dark cavern, and was pleased to note that they were unable to open the door; the information about Harry's godfather was very interesting, and Draco filed it away for further contemplation and focused back on what was going on in the oubliette. It wasn't much; apparently Harry had given up on trying to get out by himself and he was playing a game of Exploding Snap with Luna.

"Well, it's about time things started going my way," he smirked, "Hmm, Harry still has about seven hours left…I think I'll let him stew in the oubliette for a while. In the meantime, maybe I can find that missing knife." He apparated to the spot where Luna had been captured (and he was very grateful that apparating in the realm was legal for everyone fifteen or older) and began tracing the pairs steps, keeping his eyes on the path to try and locate the knife. About twenty minutes later, he came to stop next to the Devil's Snare and frowned; there was no sign of the missing knife. With a snap of his fingers he summoned Ystan and, after verifying that he hadn't seen the knife and that the oubliette path had been reset, sent him away again. "I wonder what happened to that knife…" he shrugged it off, it was bound to show up eventually. "Oh well, I still have a few things to take care of, so I guess I should get back to the castle." He pulled out his viewing crystal one last time to verify that Harry was still sitting in the cavern and nodded in satisfaction when he saw that the game of Exploding Snap was still going on. As Draco put the crystal back in his pocket, a thought occurred to him and he broke out into a grin.

"Oh, Luna!" Draco laughed, "I am so glad Harry ran into you; this couldn't be more perfect!" He turned on the spot and apparated back to the castle with his laughter echoing behind him.
