My first ever short fanfic...so here goes nothing! Ok so I have changed it and redone it so there hopefully is no spelling mistakes and stuff...I have changed it so James is a student because it would be weird that he is a teacher!

Chapter 1

Sixth year

As Hermione stepped off the train and walked along the platform closely followed by Ron and Harry, she felt a tingle go down her spine and the hairs on the back of her neck stand on end. She spun around to see nothing unusual except smiling faces and laughter "You ok 'mione?" asked Ron noticing her sudden shiftyness "Yeah fine" Hermione muttered in response. Ron and Harry shared a confused glance while Hermione took one more fleeting glance behind her.

"Harry! What are you going on about!" asked Hermione "That doesn't make any sense...Its not logical!"

"Merlin Hermione! Its magic! Are you saying you don't believe in Vampires?" asked Harry staring at his friend on the opposite couch.

"Well no and yes. Because firstly vampires are those of myths and legends, but then magic can reveal all sorts of strange things" she muttered

"And secondly?" asked harry

"There is no secondly" replied Hermione

"That's why its magic! And it's the truth for heaven's sake!" exclaimed Ron suddenly joining the conversation, Hermione just groaned and returned to her book.

"Where's Harry?" Hermione asked as Ron as him and her left the library "Dunno...I think he went to some meeting with Dumbledore" he replied

"Oh, yes I forgot about that!" she said glancing cautiously at Ron, hoping he wouldn't notice her blushing cheeks. But to her relief and sudden disappointment Ron wasn't even looking at her. His attention was that of in front of him, Hermione followed his gaze to see standing before them a man no older than sixteen maybe seventeen, with long blonde hair tied into a pony tail, ragged jeans and t-shirt. His skin as pale and smooth as porcelain, his eyes a deep blue while every now and then they flashed a ruby red...

"Hello" he said

"Who are you?" asked Ron, not tearing his eyes away from his strong gaze.

"Your worst nightmare, James" he replied

"Oh puh-lease" replied Ron in an exasperated tone

"You are messing with the wrong guy!" whispered Hermione, staring at his relaxed stance, which made her nerves go mental.

"Shhhh!" he hissed back at her. Hermione scowled at Ron, he is sooooo ignorant! she thought as she looked between the guy and Ron, and back again.

"You should listen to your little girlfriend, she is very...smart?" said James.

"She is not...er...Were just friends" said Ron blushing slightly.

"Sure..." James muttered "Well I'm hungry and I need food" He disappeared down one of the many Hogwarts hallways. After he had left Hermione followed Ron back to the common room, where the fire was alight sending a warm glow across the room.

"He was well weird" muttered Ron slumping down on the couch nearest to the fire.

"Yes..." she replied grabing some homework out of her back and balancing it carefully on her knee.

"You have got to be kidding me!" Ron exclaimed from beside her "What?" she asked indignantly grabbing her quil, as Ron sighed "Is this all you do? Read? Study? Do homework that isn't due until ages?"

"Ron, I do what I enjoy!" she replied "Like you with quidditch, do you see me complaining?" he looked around nervously "Well, no..." he muttered.

Two hours later

"Ron! Hermione!" came Harry's urgent voice "Thank god you're alright!" he said as he sat on the couch opposite

"Why? What's wrong?" asked Hermione

"Some Ravenclaw girl got murdered...Her body drained of blood. All the teachers are completely at loss for words. But they said no one is to go out alone..." Harry exclaimed

"What! Omygod!" said Hermione

"That is sick" muttered Ron

"I think it was a vampire" said Harry unexpectedly

"Not that again!" groaned Hermione

"He's quite right you know "said Ron

They all sat in silence, Harry couldn't get the sight of the pale girl..Her body broken...from his mind...The pain that was etched into her features was un-changable. He shudered at the thought...

Yes I know it is veeery short, but I wanted to see how it all goes...See if I am not wasting any time :P
