Here's Chapter 2, hope you like. Well, ingredient hunting they go. But is the coast clear? Well, read it.


Chapter 2: 'What The Hell Are You Doing?'


Head Dormitories…

The next day, Hermione performed a spell to uncover the glamours. When she did, Harry, Ginny and Ron's eyes opened in amazement.

"Bloody hell, this is going to be huge now." He was right. There was a spiral staircase either side of the fireplace, which on further investigation led to the same room. There were 4 more rooms, which all had beds in.

"Do you think Dumbledore would let us stay here now?" Ginny asked.

"We're not supposed to know about it though. What would Dumbledore say if he found out?" Hermione said.

"Well, Miss Granger, I think that it was about time you found out." The voice of their Headmaster said behind them, startling them all.

"Professor, we…" Hermione started but Dumbledore put his hand up to silence her.

"Miss Granger, it is quite alright. And to answer Miss Weasley's question, yes, Mr Weasley and yourself can stay in these rooms. We can have house elves bring your belongings up later today. And you must your dorm mates where you are going." Ron and Ginny nodded eagerly. "Take care then." Dumbledore departed through the portrait. The four were quiet for a moment, then laughing was heard.

"Yeah! Can you believe it Harry, we can stay here together!" Ginny flung her arms around his shoulders and kissed him. "This is going to be so fun!"

"Of course it is. Didn't you wonder why there a door leading from my room to another room. So you can have that room." Harry told her.

"And a door from mine to another. Ron, your room sorted." Hermione said. And I think we should name the tower. Like Charmed Tower." Hermione referred to the Charmed One's tower.

"Well, how about Kinetic Tower? Short, refers to us." Ginny said.

"All agreed?" Harry said. They all nodded.

"This tower is now named Kinetic Tower. So what do we do with the other two rooms?" Ron asked. Harry smiled.

"I think I know some people who would use them from time to time."


Kinetic Tower Attic…

On the Sunday, Ron had moved the potion from Hermione's room to the attic, as they named it, and kept it hidden from Ginny. Harry felt guilty keeping it from Ginny, but he had got this far now.

Hermione and Ron sat with him around the small cauldron. They were currently adding the Hippogriff's crown feathers. 9 were needed so they each added 3. Hermione stirred it and put on a simmer.

"We need to keep it on the heat until the end now. Only 5 days left. We'll need to take it within 1 hour of it going murky brown." Ron made a face.

"Murky brown? Do they want to make me throw up?"

"Ronald, do you want to be an Animagus? I thought so, now stop complaining. After everything James, Sirius and Remus told us about it, there are worse things. Now we need to decide when and how we are going to get the Dragon saliva."

How about tonight, under the invisibility cloak?" Harry said.

"But who will be going? I think Harry and you should go. You can find it easier Mione and Harry can be the look out." Ron suggested.

"How come you don't want to come Ron? Scared of Snape?" Harry teased.

"No, I just thought that someone should keep Ginny occupied, to stop her asking where you two have gone." Ron said.

"That's a great idea." Hermione kissed him on the cheek. "This is why I love you."

"What, you don't love him for his personality?" Harry joked. Hermione glared and sent a small flame at his shoulder. He was about to move it with his telekinesis when it disappeared. "Mione, don't do that!" She just smirked.


Dungeons, Snape's Private Stores…

"Ow, Harry, that was my foot." Hermione whispered.

"Sorry Mione." He whispered back. They entered with Harry changing into his dad and orbing them in there.

"Harry, why didn't we just orb here in the first place?" Hermione said.

Harry shrugged. "Wanted it to be like we used to." He grinned. "Lets find this thing." Hermione began to search the shelves while Harry spied through the key hole to see if Snape would be coming.

Kinetic Tower Common Room…

Ron and Ginny were talking about Quidditch (The only thing, Ron found, that she loved like she did Harry) when he received a premonition.


Start Premonition…

Harry and Hermione are looking around Snape's stores when 3 figures orb in.

"What the hell are you doing?" Piper asked. Harry and Hermione looked around quickly, startled.

"It's not what it seems." Harry said.

"So, what is it then?" Phoebe asked.

Harry and Hermione sighed, then began the story of their Animagus potion.

End Premonition…


Ron gasped. Damn, they were going to be found out. He had to warn them quickly.

"Gin, I'm really sorry, but I need to run." He disillusioned himself. "I won't be long. Promise." He left the common room, running to the dungeons and hoping it wasn't too late.


Back in Snape's Stores…

Harry and Hermione were both looking now, with their backs to the door. They didn't even see 3 figures orb in behind them. 3 figures that turned out to be the Charmed Ones.

"What the hell are you doing?" Piper asked loudly. Harry and Hermione jumped and turned around. Startled.

"It's not what it seems." Harry started.

"So what is it then?" Phoebe asked, crossing her arms.

Harry was about to answer when the door suddenly flew open to reveal… nothing. It closed again. "What the…"

"Harry, it's me, don't tell them." Ron appeared right in front of them, making the all jump.

"Ron, but how did know about them…"

"Premonition. Oh by the way, is there anything to stop your ears ringing afterwards?" He asked Phoebe. She shook her head.

"So are you going to tell us why you need this for your potion?" Phoebe asked.

"How did you know about this? And we didn't say anything about the potion." Harry said.

"Premonitions. Remember? I had one about 10 minutes ago. So tell us about this potion." She said.

"Well, can we find the ingredient first, then we can go to your tower and talk about it. Deal?" Hermione said. The Charmed Ones nodded.

"What do you need?" Paige asked.

"Dragon saliva." Ron answered.

She held her hand out. "Dragon saliva." A jar appeared in her hand and she handed it to them. "Now, can we get out of here?" They held onto her hands and arms and they all disappeared. 10 seconds later, Snape appeared, waving his wand light around. He snarled and closed the door again.


Charmed Tower Common Room…

Harry, Hermione and Ron had explained all about the potion and were now waiting for the Charmed Ones to say something.

"Well, we have decided on one unanimous answer." Piper said.

"So, what is it? How many points are we going to lose?" Ron asked.

"None. On one condition." Phoebe said. "We want in. We want to become Animagus."

"Sure. We have more than enough potion." Hermione said. Harry and Ron nodded.

"Excellent. So, when will it be ready?"

"Friday. Around 8pm." Harry said.

"Ok. We'll meet you in your attic at 8pm on Friday." Paige said. "Now, do you want a lift back to your tower?" 3 nods left Paige on drop off duty, with a disgruntled Ginny at the other end.
