BANG!
The great hall oak doors flew open, everyone turned to see a girl walk in, dark sunglasses, full red lips, a good body and a long black leather coat on, with the hood up so you could not see her hair, the whole effect seemed to make her look very gothic and strong.
All eyes were still on her as she walked down between Gryffindor and Ravenclaw tables, her long coat swishing behind her, she stopped half way and said loudly
"I'm sorry I'm late, I was following up some leads professor"
she bowed then walked up to where Harry and Ron were sitting and she took the empty space next to Ron.
" 'mione!" Harry exclaimed
Her head turned sharply towards him and she answered simply
"I'll explain later" and began to eat, many whispers swept through the hall but it soon changed into the full blown racket that they were all used to.
She took her sunglasses off and pulled down her hood to reveal soft curled dark brown hair to her shoulders.
"Now that she has arrived I can now announce the new head girl to be Hermione Granger"
she stood, took her bow and sat down quickly, her eyes never leaving Dumbledore
"And the head boy is Draco Malfoy" he stood, a smirk planted firmly on his face as he bowed. He did not notice the death glare that Hermione sent his way though.

After the Feast:
"Come along then, we'll go to see your new living quarters"
Said Dumbledore as he met Hermione (still wearing her swishy coat) and Malfoy out side the great hall. They followed him up to the astronomy tower, he finally stopped out side a portrait of all the founders of Hogwarts.
There stood Godric, Rowena, Salazar and Helga (is it Helga for hufflepuff, I can't remember, please correct me if it's wrong!).
Godric and Salazar seemed to be arguing as they stood behind rowan and Helga's sitting forms who were chatting happily.
"the password is love binds us" Dumbledore said confidently. The founders did not seem to notice though, after a few prods of the painting Godric looked at the 3.
"Ah, the new heads are here everyone. Password?"
"Love binds us" As he said it Dumbledore left them to go in.
"You may enter, Salazar let them in." he looked expectantly at the slithering founder. But Salazar made no move to help.
"Salazar?"
"I'm not letting that mudblood in here!" he exclaimed. The other founders gasped in unison as they turned to see Hermione's reaction. Hermione's head snapped so quickly to look him in the eye that they could have sworn they heard it crack. Malfoy snorted in an attempt to stifle his laughter.
Hermione stepped towards the painting and looked the now smirking founder and said in a deathly calm voice
"Say that again and I will not hesitate to rip you from that painting and take you a part, piece by piece. and make sure that you are conscious enough to feel. Every. Second. of it!"
The founders and Malfoy all gasped again and turned to Salazar, the smirk from his face long gone.
"go in you insolent little-" he stopped when he saw Hermione's wand pointing at him.
"Strike 1" she said and flung open the portrait.
Malfoy stood in shock for a moment then followed.
He saw Hermione with her head in her hands.
"Who are you and what have you done with Granger?" he asked, not sure of what else to say.
She looked at him with anger in her eyes, before he knew it she had a hand around his throat.
"Leave me alone Malfoy, I will not take any of your shit this year after what you father did" she spat out. She lifted him off the ground by an inch then dropped him suddenly, turned and walked to her room, slamming it closed with all her might…
