Hermione
I am walking to Harry's house to help plan him and Ginny's wedding. After the battle of Hogwarts, he proposed to her to make her happy again. She believed Fred's death was her fault. An owl swopped down and dropped me a letter:
Dear Miss Granger,
We are pleased to inform you, that you are invited to come back to Hogwarts
to complete you seventh year. The list of equipment you will need is also included,
we hope to see you back on the 1ST September. You have been chosen to be Head Girl

Yours sincerely
Professor M. McGonagall
Headmistress of Hogwarts School for Witchcraft and Wizardry.
I thought about it, and decided that I wanted to go back to complete my NEWTS and education. I am going to Diagon Alley tomorrow to collect my books and new robes.
Blaise
I had just woken up to see an owl pecking at my arm, it saw I was awake, dropped the letter on my head and flew away squawking. I opened the letter:
Dear Mr Zabini
We are pleased to inform you, that you are invited to come back to Hogwarts
to complete you seventh year. The list of equipment you will need is also included,
we hope to see you back on the 1ST September.
Yours sincerely
Professor M. McGonagall
Headmistress of Hogwarts School for Witchcraft and Wizardry.
Is Draco going, is Theo or Pansy going I had a sudden urge to owl all my old-school friends. I haven't spoken to Draco, Theo or Pansy since the War they were all on the Dark Lords side but even though I was a Slytherin I was neutral all throughout the war and didn't want to get involved.
"BLAISE" yelled my sister
"WHAT" I yelled back annoyed she interrupted my thoughts
"COME DOWN I HAVE THE BEST NEWS" she yelled even louder.
I slowly begin to trudge down the stairs, because when my sister Crystallite wants something she gets it. What could possibly be that good that she must tell me now. I walk down the last step of our very vast staircase. "Blaise, Blaise, Blaise, I am sooooooo excited I am going back to Beauxbatons again this year! BLAISE THIS IS SOOO EXCITING". I personally didn't see the exciting part in all of this, my sister Crystallite when to Beauxbatons for her first to fourth year, but this year my parents wanted her to go to Hogwarts, she stubbornly said no, no matter how many times in insisted how good it was there. "Calm down Crystal, it is not that exciting can I go back upstairs now?"
"I guess you can…" Crystal responded.
Hermione
"Can I get measured for some new robes?"
"Of course darling just wait over there" said Madam Malkin happily
"Thank you" I said and sat down on one of the comfortable leather chairs. I decided to read though my new textbook How to combat the Dark Arts by Melissa Pukridge and just when I opened it I heard someone drawl "Hi Granger, already reading the school books I see"
"You can never be to prepared for NEWTS, Malfoy" I snapped at him still reading the book.
"Someone is in a mood" he said trying to stir me up
"Hey, just in case you didn't notice several of my friends have died recently so my mood is perfectly justified"
"Which book did you find that in, Granger it is not becoming to be rude"
"It is not becoming to be a Death Eater Ferret" I fired back, I finally looked up at him and this comment seemed to touch a nerve, his pale face had an unreadable expression and he was running a hand though his platinum blond hair. I felt a little sorry for him, but then again he was the ferret and he was also rude, he looked like he was going to say something but was cut off my Madam Malkin "Hermione, your turn"
I walked up so she could measure me for my robes
?
I had gotten my Hogwarts letter earlier that morning, and I am incredibly nervous, don't know how everyone is going to take this. I must get sleep, so I can go to the train in the morning.
Blaise
Kings Cross Station was as usual packed, but I managed to get though the crowds to platform 9 ¾. I started running and all the muggles where looking at me weirdly, but I got though the barrier. When I got there, I saw and heard the usual things, crying, hugging and people telling off their children. Draco was already there and waved while running a hand though his blond hair, this is a habit he has always had. I walked up to him and asked "Who else is back?"
"Ahh, Pansy, Theo and Greg are back but also The Golden Trio, The Patils, Longbottom, Abbot and a few others."
"Okay"
I walked into the train and said to Draco "Which compartment?"
"Mate, I am Head Boy, so yeah"
"Okay cool cya later" I walked down to find most of the compartments completely full apart from one. Inside was a girl I would say was in sixth or seventh year. She was average height, extremely pale, had waist length light brown hair that had copper and blond streaks, with eyes that were somewhere between grey and green. She looked eerily familiar but I couldn't place her at all, I was still trying to figure out who she looked like when someone came up and said "Mate, come to our compartment" I looked up and saw my friend Theo and responded "Yeah sure."
Hermione
I walked into the Grand Hall and saw the familiar, enchanted ceiling showing the sky above and the four long tables one for each house. I made my way to the one on the left, with the red and gold decorations, The Gryffindor table. I was greeted by Ginny, Neville, Harry and Ron. Ron asked "Who is head boy, if it is not Harry?"
"It is Malfoy"
"THE FERRET"
"Isn't there only one?"
"But he is a major git and a DEATH EATER"
"I know, probably part of getting over the war, and supporting inter-house unity"
"But the FERRET" He was cut off from his rage by Professor McGonagall who stepped up to start the speech. "Hello to all the Hogwarts student, before we have the sorting I have a few announcements to make. First off is I know I will never be able to replace Dumbledore but I will try my best to continue to rebuild the school and rebuild the trust you all had. Now some other announcements Mr Filch wants me to remind you all that no magic, Weasleys, or Zonkos products are allowed in the corridors. Please remember that Quidditch tryouts begin on Friday. The Captains are as follows Harry Potter for Gryffindor, Terry Boot for Ravenclaw, Theodore Nott for Slytherin and Ernie Macmillan. As most of you have noticed all the seventh years, who did not come last year where invited back to complete their NEWTS, the rest of the announcements can wait until after the feast. Let the sorting begin" a roar went through the Great Hall.
Blaise
"Allot, Lucy" there was a hush over the hall as the first name was called then "HUFFLEPUFF" and there was a roar of screaming from the yellow table. "Abbot, Tony" "HUFFLEPUFF" …. "Axen, Bobby" "Gryffindor" … a little while later the last name was called "Zella, Toriette" "Slytherin" and Professor McGonagall boomed "Let the feast begin
Hermione
There where plates with roast meat and vegetables, pasta, pizza, and puddings and our goblets where filled with the drinks of our choice, the feast was just as good as my previous years. I couldn't wait for my lessons to start; I was doing every lesson I could fit into my timetable and read every book there was on each one. I look across the table to talk to harry and see Ron chewing like a monkey "Honestly Ron, close your mouth" and the Harry butted in
"She's right Ron its gross", Ron being typical Ron totally ignored us and continued shoving every bit of food from a 2-metre radius into his mouth. He saw the look of disgust on my face and gave me a grin. I honestly have no clue why I ever dated him. Interrupting my thoughts Harry said "Professor McGonagall looks kinda nervous"
"I know, and I am not sure why" I responded, but Ron was staring at the Slytherin table and said excitedly "Look at Malfoy he looks sick" Harry shot his head up and laughed "He really does, wonder why, what do you think Mione?" I look up at Malfoy and see he does look quite sick, his pale face is even paler than usual and he is shaking, he looks almost vulnerable and something makes me feel sorry for him. "Yeah I guess he looks sick", they can both tell I am not interested and drop the topic and begin talking about Quidditch, so I tune out.
Blaise
All our bellies are full, and our plates vanish. I look up at the teachers table and see them all talking in hushed voices and say to Theo "What do you think they are talking about?"
He says "Who, what?"
"The teachers"
"I dunno, they look serious and worried though"
"Yeah they do, but McGonagall is coming up to the podium, so I suppose we will find out" I say intrigued.
"I hope you all enjoyed the feast, so now I have a few other announcements to make. Firstly, the Forbidden Forest is out of bounds along with the kitchens and the teachers wing. Classes begin tomorrow after lunch. There where great horrors in the wizarding wars, that all of you where effected by, but I would like to remind you to take this like the mature young adults you are. We have a new student who is not a first year." A hush falls over the hall followed by whispers, everyone didn't see the big deal, it was a first having a new student not a first year. There were many theories already brewing, particularly in the younger students, the McGonagall continued talking "They will not be sorted into a house, because it is a tradition to only sort first years and it will remain that way." The girl I saw on the train steps onto the podium and I hear four yells from the Gryffindor table coming from the Golden Trio and Neville Longbottom, I feel someone shaking beside me. Apart from that everyone in the room looks at her only with mild interest, she says "Hi my name is…"
