Tunnels of Darkness

Hermione shivered violently as she peered through the darkness with as much hope as she could. Ron looked at her nervously then gently put his arm around her and blushed bright red in the darkness. Hermione thanked him as she cuddled deep down in his jacket trying to get some of his warmth.1

"Where do you think Harry could be?" Hermione asked nervously.2

"I don't know, I just don't know," Ron sighed. 3

They sat there for a few more minutes in the dark, looking desperately through the night. Cold prickled Hermione's skin as she breathed in the deep sea air. The seagulls squawked in the distance and the damp started seeping through her trousers as she sat on the cold, cave floor. They had been waiting there for hours, desperate for Harry to come back. He'd wondered off hours ago saying that he knew where the next horcruxe was, but there was only enough space for one to get it. So Ron and Hermione just sat there, wondering, hoping.4

Hermione quickly shot up as she heard the soft crunch of footsteps. Heart in her hands she waited as patiently as she could as her heart beaten heavily. Ron stood up beside her and she grabbed his hand and clung on to it as they saw a small figure with bright blond hair come out of the darkness. He had an evil grin creeping on his face as he strutted into the cave.5

"What do you know, the mud blood managed to get herself a boyfriend. Mind you that sad excuse for a wizard couldn't get much better than a filthy little mud blood." Draco sneered at him. Ron lunged at him, but Hermione clung on to him, dragging him back towards her. 6

"I'd do what your girlfriend tells you Weasley, you could never win." Draco slowly walked around them, circling them like they were his prey. Hermione clinged tighter and tighter to Ron's hand as Draco's cold, blue eyes met hers. He put his face close to her and sneered. 7

"Don't worry, I've only come to deliver a little letter" Draco grinned to himself happily, "give it to Potter and only Potter. The Dark Lord has a deal he could do with him. It's well most urgent." 8

Hermione pulled her face away from away from Draco's and stepped backwards as he came closer to her, his icy eyes glaring into hers. 9

"Are you scared of me?" Draco whispered in to her ear. "Or are you frightened that I am more powerful than your measly little boyfriend." She pulled away yet again in disgust, but he was quicker as he pulled her face towards her and kissed her on the lips. "Saying you don't like that are you?" Draco laughed. "Now if you don't mind I've got to go and wash my lips. Don't know what Weasley could have passed on. Don't expect it again mud blood, I was just showing you what a real man can do, a real wizard." And with that he disappeared into the darkness as Ron tried to lunge after the faint shadow of the night.10

"Hermione?" Ron asked sheepishly. 11

"Yeah?"12

"Look I have to ask you this now before I bottle out. Will you go out with me, like properly. I know I'm not as good as Draco or Harry I'm not as much of a...-" Ron stumbled13

"Shush Ron, of coarse I will." Hermione smiled as she kissed him gently and heard a slight pattering on the ground. And there was Harry, soaking wet but with a smiled spread on his face as he ran up to his friends and gave them a big hug. 14

"I did it!" Harry shouted, "only 2 more to go!" He grinned to himself. "Finally you two got together!" He gave Hermione a kiss on the cheek and Ron a pat on the back as Hermione produced the gold envelope from her right hand and gave it to Harry silently. 15

"Harry, he knows where you are, he wants to make a deal." She said softly, tears filling up in her eyes. 16

All went quiet and as the all stared at the letter unhappily. The sea crashing on the rocks was the only sound hear as the moonlight shone calmly on to the rock face...17

    This is a clever Idea, the only thing that annoyed me a little is the fact that you placed one of the horcruxes in another cave, realistically, Lord Voldemort would be a bit more creative than that. Other than that, this is well wordedand cleverly written, I would have liked for you to have told the reader which horcrux it is but again, it is opinion based. Thanks for entering and good luck- Becca
