What's A DIT??

"Well, Draco, that was quite a performance last night," said Lucius with his mouth full of Lucky Charms.

"In a good or bad way," yawned Draco. He was still in his P.J.s. (NOT those ugly ones with the blue and white stripes that they just HAD to wear in the movie.)

"Good. Our master is very pleased."

'Hmm...' thought Draco. 'OUR master...' Lucius was still talking though.

"In fact, he wants you to train a new DIT."

"What's a DIT?" Draco asked.

"Death Eater in Training." Lucius gave a hearty laugh. "There's no 'E' in DIT, but there's an 'I'..." He shrugged. "He said you'd like her though." Lucius took a sip of his orange juice.

"So it's a girl then," said Draco thoughtfully.

"Ten points to Slytherin," said Snape, who had just stepped through the door. Lucius spit out his orange juice in surprise.

"Oh. Morning, Professor." Draco was too sleepy to get excited.

"There's a meeting tonight, just for us."

"Why you too, Severs?" asked Lucius.

"Because I teach the girl, and he wants me to help her if she needs it. No idea who it is though... Did you just call me Severs?" Snape asked bewildered

"Did I?" asked Lucius. Draco shrugged and continued to eat his yogurt.

Draco spent the day researching more dark spells and practicing them on small helpless animals. Off to see the Dark Lord, the evil Dark Lord of terror! La la la la la la la la la-la la la la la la! *Ahem* back to Draco, Lucius and Snapey-poo:)

Finally it was to for the meeting and Draco was extremely excited, because he would soon meet his very own DIT! After the robe kissing and yadda yadda, Voldie announced who the DIT was. There they stood. Their outfit wasn't much different from Draco's. What stood out, even in the dark was their flaming red hair.

"Weasley?!"

Indeed it was. There stood Ginny Weasley, youngest Weasley. Shy and innocent. A Gryffindor. Never did it cross anyone's mind that she would be a DIT!

"Hi Draco," she said softly.

"I'll leave you two to talk business while I do," Voldie said, then went to go talk to Lucius and 'Severs'.

"Way to go Ginny!" Draco said, punching her lightly on the shoulder. "I didn't know you had it in ya!" She smiled slightly. "Why are you here anyway? Why not hanging around with Potter?" he asked suspiciously.

"He annoys me," she said simply. "And to answer your previous question, I'm sick of being poor. I'm sick of people judging me by how much money I have." Here she glared at him. "I don't like pity."

"Cool," he said. "What you want, the Dark Lord will give to you!"

"So what do I do?"

So for the next month or so, Draco trained Ginny and taught her dark arts stuff he had learned years ago. Ginny had told her family that her and Draco had become friends at the end of the last school year. Well, you can guess how THAT went over... MOST of them eventually accepted it, and her parents let her go to Malfoy Manor to train often. Of course, they didn't KNOW that she was training.

Then the day came for Ginny to have her final exam with Moldywarts. If all went as planned, she would receive her mark that night. They decided she would spend the night at Draco's. That would mean that Draco and Lucius would have to come within 200 yards or Ginny's Mum and Dad. Uh-oh...

*POP*

"AHHH! Malfoy, what are you doing here!" (That was Ron)

"Nice to see you too, Weasley."

Ginny was about to get out of her chair and greet them, when Harry walked in the door without seeing Draco.

"Hiya Gin," Harry said.

"Hey Draco!" she called over his shoulder, not noticing Harry had arrived.

"Huh? I'm Harry, remember? HAAAAAARRRRRREEEEEEEE..."

"Uh, Potter?" Draco said, placing a hand on Harry's shoulder. He must have jumped a foot in the air.

"Ginny, dear," said Lucius, "Why don't you go get your stuff, hmm?"

"Okies! C'mon Draco!" she grabbed his hand and ran upstairs. Then Lucius was left alone with Harry, Ron, and Mrs. Weasley.

"Hello Molly, how are you?" he asked pleasantly.

"Uh... good, how are you, Lucius?"

"Spiffing," he said and sat down.

Ron and Harry looked at each other and shrugged. Ron motioned for Harry to follow him up the stairs. They neared the landing by Ginny's bedroom. They heard snatches of conversation, but the one that stood out the most was: "And tonight I'll finally be a real Death Eater, not just a DIT!" Ginny laughed and Draco chuckled.

Ron went pale and kicked the door open.

"I knew you were using her!" Ron bellowed and pointed an accusing finger at Draco.

"Ron--," Ginny gasped.

"He-ay, Weasley, can't you take a joke?" Draco laughed nervously. "She was only kidding."

"Shut up, Malfoy!"

"Ron! Stop this nonsense right now!!" Ginny yelled up at her brother. Ron stopped and just gaped at her.

"I'm sorry I have to do this Ron, I really am. But you just wouldn't understand," she sighed. "I've been training to be a Death Eater all summer. I really am sorry." She raised her wand above her head and pointed it at Ron. He went white.

"OBLIVIATE!" she shouted, and then said, "You just came upstairs to spy on me and Draco. You found out nothing," after he went into the trance. His face glazed over, then he snapped out of it.

"Sorry I was spying Ginny," he said with a slur.

"It's quite all right, Ron," she said pleasantly. "Just don't do it again."

"Thanks, Gin. You're so nice," he bowed then walked out. Straight into Harry (OMG before I went back after my vacation to fix some of the errors here, I noticed that I had spelled 'Harry' 'Happy'. Oh. My. God. That scared me!) who was standing outside and heard every word.

"Ok, Draco, I'm all ready!" Ginny said.

"Good, let's go!"Â Then they raced down the many stairs, which occupied the Weasley household.

Harry shook Ron.

"Do you remember anything that Ginny said to Malfoy?" he asked urgently.

"They were just talking about what they would do when they get back to school and the teachers and stuff," said a very confused Ron.

"Yeh, but anything about Death Eaters?"

"No..."

"Well, Ginny said she's getting her mark tonight. You heard and she obliviated you!" yelled Harry flapping his arms around. Ron started laughing.

"My sister? A Death Eater? PAH!" he laughed some more.

"Hey Ginny!" Ron called as she and Draco ran down the stairs.

"Oh...hello Ron," she said giving him a pleasant smile.

"Sup Weasley, Potter." Draco was elbowed by Ginny. "Er...Ron, Harry," he corrected himself.

"Hey, er...Draco," said Ron. Harry glared at Draco.

"Let's let bygones be bygones, eh Ron?"

"Sure. Friends? I think we should just give up this whole rivalry. Ginny has!" Ron thumped Ginny on the back.

"Ow..." she muttered.

"Friends," agreed Draco, and they shook on it. Ginny beamed at the pair of them.

"Whadda ya say, Harry?" asked Draco, grinning. Harry firmly shook his head no.

"Just why not?" Draco asked, crossing his arms defiantly.

"You're using Ginny as a tool for Voldemort!" he half shouted.

"Potter!" yelled Draco aghast. "I would do NO SUCH THING!"

"Where would you get that idea from, Harry?" Ginny whispered clinging to Draco's arm in an attempt to stop him from attacking Harry. Harry's face was turning red and he was clenching his fists, cursing their ignorance.

"When you admitted it to Ron right before you obliviated him!" he said. To his surprise, Ginny and Draco started laughing. Ron just stared.

"Good God, Potter! I knew you were a bit unbalanced, but this time you've really gone starkers!" Draco said before throwing his head back with more laughter.

"Do we need to book you a room at St. Mungo's, Harry?" chocked out Ginny. Ron gave in and started chuckling, and then it grew into helpless laughter. The three of them were just laughing their heads off when Lucius and Molly come over there to make sure their children were all right, which we all know they aren't.

"DAD!" yelled Draco down the stairs. "Harry said the funniest thing! He accused me of corrupting Ginny and using her as a tool for You-Know-Who!" Then three of them started laughing again, this time joined by Lucius and Molly. Harry had just about had it, and stomped off.

"What's wrong with him?"

"That Potter must go," said Lucius as soon as they apparated into Malfoy Manor. Draco had recently taught Ginny how to do it, as she would need to, in order to reach 'her lord'. "He knows too much." Ginny and Draco nodded feverishly.
