Okay so this is a story that I had started writig freshman year. I sorta lost interest in it but now I am going to try and finish it. If this doesn't get to popular then it may be shorter then I plan on it being. So read this first chapter and tell me what you think.

The fight

It was a beautiful day for it to be the last day of school. With a slight breeze and the sun shining brightly overhead, I was glad to be graduating today. I had spent almost half of my life at this school. Today was the day that I, Hermione Jean Granger, would finally graduate from Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. It's hard to believe that just a few months ago everyone had been fighting for their lives in a war against Voldemort.

Everyone tried not to think too much about the people that had died during that battle but sometimes it would find a way to slip into their minds and then next thing you know someone is crying during class. When we had first come back it freaked everyone out a little when someone would start crying. Now it was so common that it wasn't too big of a deal. It was still a little depressing though. My friend Ron and his sister Ginny were one of those people that you would see crying during class-well at least Ginny cried, I'm not so sure that Ron did. Even the school bully Draco Malfoy had stopped teasing people so much.

Just for old time's sake Harry, Ron, and I decided to walk around the castle before heading down to the platform. There was still a good amount of time before we had to leave. We didn't spend too much time on the sixth, fifth, and fourth floors because besides classrooms there wasn't much for us to look at that was important to us. I wanted to stop in the library so we headed down to the third floor entrance.

While walking down the hallway to the entrance, we ran into some of our least favorite people-Malfoy, Pansy, and Goyle. They hadn't noticed us yet but soon all three of them would come up and surely make fun of us. They haven't been very fond of us ever and loved to make fun of us at any opportunity they had. Most of the time it would lead to hexes being thrown and somebody ending up in the hospital wing.

I was following closely behind Ron and Harry to make sure that Draco didn't see me. Just because he didn't make fun of many people nowadays didn't mean that he stopped tormenting me. I was still his number tormenting target—aside from Harry and Ron. At least once a day he called me names or tried to pull some kind of prank on me. As we got closer I could feel my nerves getting higher and higher. The last thing I wanted for him to do was to ruin my last day in this school by taunting me yet again or casting some kind of spell on me.

"Hello there Weaselbee, Potty, where is your little pet bookworm Granger? Has she gone to hide off in the library again because the paintings were calling her ugly? She should at least know that they aren't lying." Malfoy spotted the boys but luckily he didn't spot me, his two little followers cackled at his petty joke attempts. Oh how he made my blood boil!

"Actually Malfoy she is right-" Harry cut Ron off with a swift shove in the side and after Malfoy left I would surely like to thank him for shutting Ron up. While Ron hadn't noticed me go from being right next to them to behind, Harry had. At least I had one friend that was smart enough to know when I didn't want to be seen…

"She left early to get a good spot on the train, Malfoy…she got tired of seeing your face and decided she didn't need to see something that would give her a stomachache on the train ride home." I could have kissed Harry right now! He knows just the right thing to say at the right time. Unfortunately this will probably start a fight between the two groups. Maybe I can summon the invisibility cloak or cast a disillusionment spell before something actually happens…

"You sure are feeling lucky today aren't you, Potter? At least I can have the satisfaction of being able to beat you before I leave this place for good! Pansy, Goyle, lets go find our spot in the train," Draco turned to Harry, "I'll do you a favor and leave you and you little sidekicks alone. That way at least you will still have your dignity, since that is all you have left."

After Draco said that Harry rushed up to him and clocked him right upside the head. Luckily, while Draco had been insulting Harry I cast a silent spell over myself. I was entirely invisible. Now I can safely watch the fight and be able to intervene at any time without getting hurt.

As soon as Draco and Harry leapt into action, so did the other three that were standing there. I watched them run at each other; they pulled out their wands and started slinging hexes all over the place. Ron was battling both Pansy and Goyle and from the looks of it he was barely keeping the upper hand. While Goyle wasn't the brightest person in the world he knew just enough to be able to have some kind of advantage in a fight. Ron obviously needed help so I decided to step in. I hit Goyle with Petrificus Totalus and Pansy screamed as soon as she saw him fall to the ground. She was looking for where the spell had come from and that gave Ron the upper hand in the fight so he hit her with Incarcerous and then shoved her down onto the ground against the wall. With Goyle and Pansy taken care of all that was left was to help Harry defeat Draco. Harry shot spells that Draco just blocked and vice versa.

"You won't be able to defeat me, Potter, so if you would just put your wand down I can end this as quick and painless as you would like."

"You wish, Malfoy. I'm not walking away until I kick your sorry ass yet again," Malfoy momentarily stopped to sneer at Harry and that was all that he needed to yell Stupefy and then put him next to his friends to be tied up. All of them except for Goyle were knocked out—of course Goyle was frozen so Malfoy and Pansy were actually better off then him.

"Ron, did you see where Hermione went?" Harry was looking around obviously not knowing that I had cast the disillusionment spell on myself and was standing right in front of them.

"No I haven't mate. Maybe she ran to the library as soon as we started fighting. You know how much she hates it when we fight." I took this moment to sneak up behind Ron to scare him.

I took my place behind him and leaned in towards his ear, "Are you looking for me, Ronald?" He jumped about six feet in the air when he heard my voice. Ron turned around looking everywhere, hearing only my voice but not being able to tell where it came from. I stood out of arms reach to make sure he couldn't touch….this was too much fun!

"Bloody hell! Where are you Hermione?" He looked like an idiot just turning around in circles trying to find me. This is something I almost never get the opportunity to do. Maybe it would be funny to taunt him a little bit more…

"Try and find me!" With that I ran down the hallway and into the library, the boys heard my shoes hitting the ground so they followed me in. As soon as they got there though, they had to slow down so they wouldn't get in trouble with Madam Pince, There was a clear path all the way to the next door since all the desk were stored away. In a moment of total instinct I ran to the other exit and took to spell off of me. When I called out to the boys they were startled to see me already leaving the library.

"Later boys, I've got a train to catch. See you soon guys!" As quick as I had come in I left and decided that instead of walking around the rest of the castle, I would just head onto the train to find a compartment. Besides, I had a feeling that this wouldn't be the last time I was ever going to see this place.
