Hermione's Prediction

Hermione's Prediction

Chapter 7

"Should we send him an owl or go ask him in person?" Hermione wanted to know how they are going to ask Dumbledore if they can visit Sirius on Christmas Day. " I donno, I think we should send Hedwig," Harry replied remembering the last year when he had to guess the password. He wasn't sure if he wanted to go through that again, especially if it was going to be something like Cockroach Cluster. "So an owl then," Ron said staring off into space, Ron didn't really care much about how they would send it. "Okay, I'll right it!" Hermione told them. "Fine with me," Ron said happily, "hey Harry! I'm going down to the library. Wanna come?" Harry nodded. They, unlike Hermione, had much of their homework to do.

Harry scanned the paper. Was it good enough for Snape? He shook his head in discuss. Who cares Harry thought it was the effort that counts right? Anyway Snape will fail me even if I have the best paper. Harry looked at the potions report again in confusion, shrugged and stuffed it into his bag.

Ron was just finishing his potions homework, when he noticed it was time to go to class. He met up with Harry and started out to potions. "Wait up." Came the voice of Hermione. Harry along with Ron froze, and looked around for Hermione.

"BOO!!!!" "Ahhh!" "Oh Ron you are such a baby." "Am not!" It's just not...right...when you....sneak up on...people..." Ron said fishing for the right words. " Okay if you say so Ron," Hermione said rolling her eyes.

In potions, Snape said they had to do a Frolaganter. Which would cure anyone whose memory was taken. After copping all the ingredients, they set to work. Snape would breath down their necks and make them all as uncomfortable as possible. Draco, once again, started talking about how sorry he feels for all those people who have to stay home during the Christmas Holidays because they were unwanted at home. He was, of course, speaking about Harry. Crabbe and Goyle sniggered.

Dear Harry, Ron and Hermione,

As it seems, you wish to visit Sirius. I would not mind this much

but you wish to see him on a holiday. You are all capable of visiting

him during your trip to Hogsmeade. And the village is closed also.

I will, however, let you see him the day after Christmas. I hope you

are all well, and have a good day

Sincerely,

Professor Dumbledore

Harry, Ron, and Hermione stared at the letter. "Oh well," Hermione said. "Yeah.." was Ron's reply.

It was a cold, gray day when Harry and his friends decided to go visit Hagrid. They wanted to see how Cupcake was doing. They went down to Hagrid's hut and greeted him. "How's Cupcake doing," Hermione asked passing Hagrid to get a better look. "Oh my." Hermione froze. The horse was the size of a small pony and it had changed color once again-an emerald green.

After a while of treating Cupcake, Harry, Ron and Hermione had to leave. It was getting quite dark when they did so, because Hermione kept insisting on helping Cupcake.

Far away, in a cold and damp cave, Voldermort called one of his Death Eaters. A tall dark figure rose into the room. Voldermort studied the figure carefully. "Who is that," he snapped, " lower you're hood Now!" The figure did so. "N-no! It can't be!" The figure came closer, and Voldermort had no chance of escaping.
