It was an ordinary day, and Pansy was just waking up. She looked over at the clock on the wall and yawned. Three of her dorm mates were already up and dressed, and were sitting on Arielle's bed, looking through the latest issue of The Slytherin Girls Guide.
"Ah, Pansy, so glad you could join us in the waking world." She said sarcastically.
"Yeah, nice to see you too." She Got out of bed and dressed in jeans and a green shirt.
"Well, are you coming to breakfast?" She said to the congregated girls.
They left the dungeon and entered the corridor that was shrouded in sunlight.
Hermione stretched and yawned.
"Come on Hermione! It's Saturday and we can go into Hogsmeade!" Parvarti opened the drapes around the window and the sunlight lit the room, the dust visible swirling in the shafts of light.
Hermione got out of bed and dressed.
"This is unusual for our early riser." Lavender smiled.
"Oh leave me alone; can't a girl sleep in for once?"
"Yeah, I guess she can, but come on, we're going to miss breakfast if we don't hurry up!"
The great hall buzzed with activity, people eating breakfast, squeals echoing throughout the hall as people went about their morning rituals. Seamus sat drinking his daily two raw eggs, dean had his sketchbook and was drawing the owls, and much to her dismay, Pansy Parkinson was applying the contents of a vial of hair potion stolen from one Hermione Granger, who had just walked in.
Hermione spotted the cunning Slytherin as soon as she walked in and also spotted the vial in her hand.
She stormed over to where Pansy and her cronies sat gossiping.
"You little creep!" Hermione raged, "Where did you get that?"
"What, this hair potion? Why I bought it off a lovely seventh year in your house."
"It was stolen from me; may I please have it back?"
"No!"
"Pansy?"
"May I see you in the entrance hall, now?"
"Sure."
They met in the great hall.
"Well what's this about the potion being stolen granger?"
"I brewed that potion, and it was gone from my dorm a few mornings ago."
"Well, I see you need it more than I do," Said pansy, "So I'm giving it back to you."
"What you need is a good dose of beauty potion, and then it'd make you look a little more like a human and less like a pug."
"I have to go, your uni brow I blocking out the sun!" Pansy laughed but didn't budge.
"Well, I'd like to continue this battle of wits, but I see you're unarmed." Hermione walked away.
Later that day, Hermione accompanied Harry to the Divination classroom to get his cloak which he'd left in there from that day's lesson. They held hands as they walked up the spiral staircase. When they got to the classroom, Professor Trelawney was cleaning up a broken tea cup.
"Heh, Had third years today have you professor Trelawney?" Harry laughed and went over to the corner of the room where his cloak was draped over a chair.
The professor slowly stood up. Her breathing was forced and wheezing and her voice deepened. She gripped Hermiones shoulder.
"Until you understand the other, you will remain the other." She rasped and then coughed a bit and returned to normal.
"Er, come on Harry… we have to go!"
Pansy awoke the next morning, her neck aching, and the sun shining through the window and into her eyes. Wait, the sun, there was no sun in the dungeons. Pansy didn't dare open her eyes.
Maybe you're not in your dorm. A voice in her head said.
"Why wouldn't I be in my dorm?" Pansy said to herself.
"Hermione, be quiet, it's early!" a sleepy voice said and this was when Pansy started to panic.
She opened her eyes and saw the maroon canopy of the bed.
"No! I'm a slytherin, I can't be in here!" She whispered and jumped out of the bed. She threw open the curtains and found a mirror on the wall. She looked at it and saw the face of Hermione Granger staring back at her.
"Mmph!" Hermione mumbled and rolled over to get more comfortable. She opened her eyes a crack and almost screamed. Everything around her was green. Green curtains, green bedcovers, green rug on the floor, green pillow. Hermione realized she wasn't in the Gryffindor dorm.
She got up cautiously. She looked down.
"These aren't mine!" She whispered frantically to herself, looking down at her chest, "And this certainly isn't mine!" She pinched the slightly flabby stomach she now had.
She felt her face.
"This isn't mine! Or this, NO!" She leapt up and slowly made her way to the mirror on the wall. She took a deep breath and looked in, and saw not her own face staring back, but the face of Pansy Parkinson.
"Well, are you coming?" Harry said when pansy finally found her way down to the common room, which was disgustingly red and gold. He kissed her on the cheek and she grimaced.
"Hi, Harry, yeah, come on let's go…" Pansy heard Hermiones voice say.
They got to the entrance to the dungeons and saw the stream of Slytherins coming out. She saw her own body and smirked when she saw that her face was scrunched up in disgust at being forced to hold the hand of Draco Malfoy. Pansy's boyfriend. Pansy laughed and Harry looked over at her inquisitively.
"What's so funny?"
"Oh, erm, that Pansy Parkinson… she… erm, looks uncomfortable with that Draco… Malfoy."
"Do you blame her…?"
"Well, he is sort of…"
"Hermione!"
"Sorry Harry." Pansy resisted the urge to roll Hermiones eyes.
"Come on Pansy, Its breakfast time!" Pansy's friend Trish urged her friend to hurry up. Hermione sighed… this is so not going to be a good day. She thought absently as she dressed for the day.
A tight green, very low neck lined T-shirt and Tight Jeans were the most Hermione-Like clothing she could find in Pansy's wardrobe.
They made their way down into the common room and out into the entrance hall, where Draco Malfoy, who had kissed her on the cheek in the common room, took her hand. She almost squirmed but kept her cool. She spotted her body staring at her and smirking. Hermione kept walking and they sat down at the Slytherin table.
She spotted herself approaching the table.
"May I speak to you in the entrance hall please, Pansy…"
