New story! I think this one is going to be a three part?... but I'm not sure. It might be longer, it might be shorter. I doubt its going to get very long though. Hopefully, however long it is, it's enjoyable! Please let me know! Any comments, especially constructive criticism, will be welcome and really, really wanted :)

If you haven't already, check out my other stories (mainly my one-shot as I jumped the gun on Memories and it might be a little while until I iron out all of the crinkles), and let me know what you think of them!

Part 1

Hermione Granger was done. Absolutely, positively done. She couldn't have been more done. So she yelled it, surprisingly loud for her considering she was in the library, but she honestly couldn't have cared less. She was done.

'Hermione' came the pathetic whimper of Ron Weasley, after Hermione had turned him down again. 'You said you'd help me with my ho-'

He was cut off. And shoved. Hermione actually shoved him.

'I know perfectly well what I said Ronald' She yelled, daring him to continue his whining. 'But Merlin! I've been doing your homework for seven years! Seven!'

Ron was backing away now, his eyes as wide as the group of first years over two tables. Fortunately, for Ron, the eleven year olds were the only ones to witness Hermione having a go at him, but unfortunately, for Ron, gossip travels fast at Hogwarts.

Hermione continued.

'You are a fully grown wizard. Figure it out for yourself. I'm done'

And with that, she stormed out of the library, ignoring Madam Pince as she urged Hermione to be quiet. With a huff, she began walking blindly to Godric knows where, and didn't stop until she realized she was in the Forbidden Forest. Judging by the amount of light filtering through the trees, she'd have to say she was fairly deep in, and that just frustrated her further.

So what did she do? Possibly the stupidest thing someone could do when they were unwanted in un-known territory, hordes of creatures just hidden from her sight. She screamed. Isn't that what people do when they are just done? Yell out in frustration? Kick the nearest thing?

The nearest thing happened to be a rather large tree, and if she had been in her right mind, Hermione would've seen the deep claw marks and used that brilliant brain of hers and ran. But she wasn't in her right mind, so she didn't see the claw marks. She also happened to miss the large silvery eyes staring at her from the depths of the forest. So she did what she shouldn't have and sat down on a fallen tree, staring angrily at the forest floor.

'Stupid git. Who does he think he is? He doesn't own me. I'm not his personal tutor. I'm his friend aren't I? Shouldn't he treat me more than just a walking textbook? Dear Merlin what the hell is the matter with me that my best friend doesn't even treat me like a person?'

The mutterings kept going for a while, all containing similar content, and she had probably been sitting there for half an hour before she heard an inhuman snort.

'Bollocks' She muttered, closing her eyes for a short minute, finally remembering that the forest is forbidden for a reason.

To understand what she was up against, she turned around, dreading what she would find, which just so happened to be so much worse than she had imagined. Before her stood the most majestic and terrifying beast she had ever seen.

A dragon.

She wasn't sure what breed, but it was silver in color, flickering a dark obsidian every once in a while, and basically gave an impression of valuable. It was rather small in size, for a dragon, only a bit larger than a hippogriff, but Hermione suspected that if its wings weren't tucked in so tight, it wouldn't be able to fit through the trees.

Hermione sighed. She knew she really should be terrified. Quaking in her shoes, gripping her skirt in fear, but she was far too busy being done. She just didn't care anymore.

'What?' She demanded boldly, her lip twitching ever so slightly. 'You want something from me too?'

At her words, the dragon cocked its head, tail swishing behind it ever so slightly. Hermione frowned and sat back down, once again, something that she probably shouldn't have done.

She even stayed when the dragon moved. Although the beast was silent, Hermione could sense its movements. They were graceful, and Hermione would've been surprised by it due to its size… If she wasn't so done.

It settled at her feet and she couldn't help but let out a small laugh. Absent mindedly she began to stroke its head, smiling when she could feel it vibrating ever so slightly. It seemed as if it were purring.

'You really are a beautiful thing' She said softly, finally feeling the anger and tension leaving her body as she slid her fingers over the dragons smooth scales, and she could swear it was smirking, but dragons don't smirk do they?
