Hermione Granger woke up with a start

Ok, I have had much 'constructive critisism' submitted on this story. I want to make a few things clear. This was the 1st fic I ever wrote. This was written before the Goblet of Fire was published. Ok? Please, no flames, and NICE constructive critisism. Thank You.

Hermione Granger woke up with a start. She heard a loud voice coming from the Gryffindor common room just below her dorm. She got out of bed and sneaked down the stairs to the room, which during the day held many of Gryffindor house's residents. At night however, it was normally deserted. Hermione looked around and didn't see anyone, so she figured it was just her. She turned around to go back upstairs and saw a shadow behind her. A hand clamped around her mouth before she could scream.
