A/N: Goodday! welcome to my ficcy, which is actually my old fic 'Actually,' which was deleted twice, but I've worked on it and now I've decided to repost it.

Disclaimer: I don't own any of the characters or anything else you recognise from J.K.Rowling's Harry Potter universe. I just like their heads. (gods the disclaimers are indeed the worst part of a story....enjoy )

Chapter one

Be prepared

Ah well. The weather was great. Hermione and of course Harry and Ron were on the train to spend their sixth year at Hogwarts. It has been one hell of a summer vacation. Harry was not allowed to go out at all, and Ron was in Bangkok most of the time. Harry got tired of that in the end and they had a big, big fight.

"You know how the Dursley's get when I answer back! It was horrible, but come on they are out of their mind, STILL trying to turn me 'back' to the muggle 'side' you know?..'' Harry said chewing some candy.

"What happened next?'' Ron asked looking rather stupid.

"Well you won't believe it, but a letter from McGonagall arrived that night after our fight, which said that we were going to an exclusive trip to south England before the summer ended. I knew it was to save me because - oh well I don't think a teacher would have us out for any school stuff before school starts. Probably not even Snape." The others laughed. ,,Anyhow, her idea of helping me really showed her lack of creativity!''

"I'm so glad that happened, I just love McGonagall sometimes.'' Hermione said.

"The Hogwarts Express will soon arrive at Hogsmeade station, please put on your robes and be prepared.'' A voice said through the train.

"Be prepared for the big evil year of the new year..!! uuow!'' Fred said running down the mid hall of the train.

"FRED THAT IS JUST SOOOO IMATURE!!'' Hermione screamed after him.

"God! Calm down Hermione! You know, it's just Fred.'' Harry said.

"uurgh!!'' she said stalking away away.

"What's wrong with her!?'' Ron asked Harry looking rather odd. Harry Shrugged.

The feast was as usual very nice and noisy and when Hermione when to bed afterwards she was exhausted. She came to think about why Snape arrived so late to the feast. Guys like Snape are never late. Oh well, he probably had some... unfinished business. She smiled at the thought of those words and slept.

School was starting as usual and of course the endless babbling about the N.E.W.T, which was coming up in only two years. All the teachers were always babbling on about it. It was horrible, but Snape was seriously painfully horrible at it! He never stopped. He made Hermione sick. So two weeks after school start she burst out in the middle of class.

"...And of course you will also need the very important note, that Gruppy's eat mushrooms, and not yoghurt. Yes Miss. Patil?''

"Why is that so important??'' Parvati burst out loudly.

"Well as it might have gone by your head Miss. Patil, we are getting close to the upcoming N.E.W.T's, and at that point...''

" - but there are thousands of all those little ridiculous notes to remember, I'm sure they wont be necessary at the examinations. You've always said that it's important to get the overview.'' she said. But she shouldn't have said anything because Snape now was looking very greenish in his head.

" Miss. Patil! Five points from Gryffindor for interrupting me, and ten points for being so smart and ignorant, thinking that you – a sixth year student – would know ANYTHING about what notes are going to be important to the N.E.W.T's compared to a professor! And another five for telling me what I've said and haven't said.'' His eyes was shooting a malicious glare. Pavarti was not looking at him. Hermione wrote a note to her:

'He never understands when a student is confused by something.'

"Right. Let's continue at page 256. And as you blah blah blah.... The ingredients for making a stuffed Grop, will be extra important to your upcoming N.E.W.T's, and to your examinations you will have to show...Yes Miss. Granger..?'' He said with a dangerous voice.

"I was just wondering, when you were going to stop mentioning the N.E.W.T's in every other sentence, because it is not helping us getting though the N.E.W.T's it is just very annoying never talking about anything else than the N.E.W.T's and...''

"OUT Granger! I will not tolerate such assaults! 15 points from Gryffindor! OUT!''

Hermione's face was unable to read. She didn't look sad. She just left without a word.

Harry and Ron were stunned. How could Hermione say such things to a teacher? There was definitely something wrong with her. She also left without showing any sign in being sad for Snape throwing her out of class.
