Potions Accident

Disclaimer: None of the characters are mine, just playing with them.

This is only my second story, so please go easy on me okay?

It was another Potions lesson with Professor Snape today and he seemed to be in a very bad mood.

Hermione also noticed the black circles under his eyes, indicating he hadn't slept in probably days. So his bad mood was kind of justified, because he apparently had been off for his work for the Order.

"Today we'll be brewing a calming draught. Form pairs and get started. The potions that are brewed correctly will be brought to Madam Pomfrey to help the students, so try at least."

At that everyone bustled to get their ingredients and instructions ready. Hermione had paired up with Lavender Brown (She sighed inwardly, but there hadn't been anyone else to pair up with) and they were trying to cooperate somehow.

Lavender had never been friendly to Hermione, mostly because she had a crush on Ron and he seemed to have more interest in her than Lavender. But seriously, Hermione didn't even like Ron that was, maybe as a brother but not as a potential lover.

Focusing back on the potion in front of her, she was startled to see it turn into a bright shade of purple, not the dark blue one it should have, meaning that either she or Lavender must have mucked something up.

"Lavender which ingredient did you put in last?" The brown haired girl asked her partner. "This one", she said, pointing into the direction of a jar with a brown pulver in it.

Seeing the shocked look on the brunette's face, Lavender asked bored "What's wrong?"

"You actually put in Manticor Claw Pilver into the potion? Are you insane, that's a very unstable ingredient, our cauldron could-" She proceeded to say "blow up anytime", but she was interrupted by the loud bang and the almost immediately following pain in her chest and stomach.

She neither noticed how she got knocked over on the floor, nor how all hell broke loose around her, for she was too busy with the pain. All she saw before everything went black, was a tall, slender figure bending over her body.
