I have no idea why I haven't posted this already, it's been finished since april!
Do you think Fred and Cassie should get together in her third year or should I wait longer? I'm going to be skipping over most of the second movie so it'll probably be this chapter and 1 or 2 more, so I kinda need your opinion quickly.

I don't own anything, because my name isn't JK Rowling.

"Look everyone," Seamus said, "Weasley's got himself a Howler."

The student laughed and Neville turned to the boy, "Go on, Ron. I ignored one from my gran once. It was horrible." He said, his face giving away his feelings on the memory.

Ron opened it with shaking hands and it immediately flew up and started screaming.

"RONALD WEASLEY! How dare you steal that car! I am absolutely disgusted! Your father is now facing an inquiry at work and it's entirely your fault! If you put another toe out of line we'll bring you straight home! " Itscreamed and turned to Ginny, speaking with a much softer voice, "Oh, and Ginny, dear, congratulations on making Gryffindor. Your father and I are so proud."It said before blowing Ron a raspberry and ripping itself up into pieces.

Ron looked even more terrified now and Cassie heard the twins break out into laughter down the table.

She placed her hand on Ron's, "Don't worry, Ron. Just try not to get into trouble and this won't be a problem." She said and with a small smile she walked out of the Great Hall, Hermione following close behind.

They had only gotten about halfway to the classroom when Fred and George walked up alongside them, George squeezing himself in-between the girls to throw his arm around both of them.

"So, ladies…" He said.

"Where are you going on such a fine day as this?" Fred asked.

Hermione shrugged George's arm off, "Defence Against the Dark Arts." She said.

They looked at each other and started laughing, hanging on Cassie to not fall over.

She slumped slightly under their weight, "What's so funny?" She asked.

They stood up again, "You're going to LOVE the new Professor." He said, winking at her.

Hermione and Cassie looked at each other in confusion as the twins walked away.

They entered the classroom and sat down at one of the desks up front, the rest of the students walking in not long after.

The door that led to the Professor's quarter opened and a wizard dressed in golden robes with matching hair and a smile that all the girls except Cassie swooned over.

He opened his mouth and started speaking, "Let me introduce you to your new DADA teacher. Me." He said and started walking down the stairs, "Gilderoy Lockhart…..Order of Merlin, Third Class….honorary member of the Dark Force Defense League…..and five times winner of Witch Weekly's Most-Charming-Smile Award." He said and demonstrated his ''Charming'' smile.

"But I don't talk about that." He continued, stopping in front of his desk, "I didn't get rid of the Bandon Banshee by smiling at him." He said and smiled again making Cassie shudder, 'What is wrong with him?' Cassie thought and she saw Ron lift an eyebrow.

"Now, be warned. It is my job to arm you against the foulest creatures known to wizarkind." He said and walked up to a small covered cage, "You may find yourself facing your worst fears in this room. Know only that no harm can befall you whilst I am here." He placed his hand on the cage, "I must ask you not to scream. It might provoke them." He raised his voice at the end of the sentence and pulled the cloth of revealing…..pixies?

Most of the students started laughing and Seamus spoke up, "Cornish Pixies?" He asked, amusement making its way onto his face.

"Freshly caught Cornish Pixies." The Professor said and the students started laughing more, "Laugh if you will, Mr. Finnigan, but pixies can be devilishly tricky little blighters. Let's see what you make of them." He said and opened the cage door.

The pixies flew out and Cassie face-palmed, "How stupid can you be?" She said quietly.

One of the pixies landed in front of her on the desk and just stood there, head tilted to the side.

Cassie stared back and it flew off quickly, seemingly bored.

She watched as two pixies picked Neville up by the ears and hung him on the chandelier. The skeleton behind him coming crashing down on the floor a couple minutes later.

''How come he isn't doing anything about it?'' She thought, looking at the Professor and upon seeing his panic realized something, ''Oh. My. God. He's a fraud! So this is what Fred and George were talking about."

The students started running out of the classroom until only Ron, Harry, Hermione, Cassie and Neville were left.

"I'll ask you four to just nip the rest of them back into the cage." The Professor said before slamming the door to his quarters shut behind him.

"What do we do now?" Ron shouted, trying to fight off the pixies by hitting them with books.

Hermione turned around and drew her wand, shouting ''IMOBULUS!'' At the pixies, making them move in slow motion.

"Good thinking, Mione." Cassie said and stood up from the floor, dusting off her robes.

"Why is it always me?" Cassie heard Neville ask before she went to help him down.

…..

Cassie, Hermione and Ron were sitting in the courtyard behind the school, Ron just watching the people around them and the girls discussing their Potions homework.

Cassie was just going to ask Hermione something when she heard Ron speak up.

"I smell trouble." He said and she looked up, seeing the Slytherin and Gryffindor team arguing just a bit from where they were sitting.

Hermione dragged her to her feet and started briskly walking over to the two arguing teams.

''….permission to practice today owing to the need to train their new Seeker.'' They heard Oliver read when they walked up, "You got a new Seeker. Who?" He asked.

Two of the Slytherin players stepped aside and Cassie saw Draco walk up, standing there smirking at Harry.

"Malfoy?" Harry asked.

"That's right." The boy in question answered, "And that's not all that's new this year." He continued and motioned to the brooms his team was holding.

Cassie heard Ron gasp, "Those are Nimbus 2001s. How did you get those?" He asked, gaping at the brooms.

"A gift from Draco's father." The Slytherin, Flint, captain said.

"You see, Weasley, unlike some, my father can afford the best." Draco said, sneering at him.

"At least no one on the Gryffindor team had to buy their way in." Hermione said, glaring at Draco, "They got it on pure talent." She said and smirked.

Draco walked up to her, "No one asked your opinion, you filthy little Mudblood." He said, glaring at her with a sneer on his lips.

Upon hearing what their best friend was called Ron drew his broken wand and pointed it at Draco, "Eat slugs!" He shouted but unfortunately, because of the wands state, it hit him instead and he promptly started puking up slugs.

The Slytherin team laughed and started walking away but got stopped by a bright, violet wall of light in front of them, making them turn around and coming face-to-face with a small, glaring girl.

"What did you just call her?" Cassie hissed out in a dangerous tone that made them gulp.

When Draco didn't answer the light made its way around his arm and gripped tightly, "Answer me." She demanded and her eyes started glowing.

Fred walked up to her and placed his arm around her shoulder, "Leave it, Cass." He said and started steering her away from the group, the light disappearing when she looked away which made Draco clutch his arm in pain and his team gasp at what was on it.

''You call her that one. More. Time. And we'll see just who it is that's filthy.'' Sat there, engraved on his arm in bright purple, flowing letters, a small version of her crest at the end.

…..

"What did you do to him?" Fred asked once they had passed the Great Hall.

She sighed and leaned in to him slightly, "I don't know exactly. All I know is that I wanted to hurt him for hurting Mione and after that it's kinda blank in my head."

"Well, whatever it is that you did it seemed to have worked. He was clutching his arm, moaning something about how his father was going to kill him when we left." He said and tightened the arm that was around her.

She was just about to answer when Dumbledore walked up, "Miss Vergo, a word if you please?" He said and Cassie followed him after dropping a kiss on Fred's cheek.

She sat down in the chair in front of Dumbledore's desk, looking around the room.

He smiled at her, the twinkle in his eye shining brightly, "Lemon Drop?" He offered, holding out a small bowl.

Cassie took one and looked at the man, "You wonder why you are here, correct?" He asked her upon seeing the questions swimming in her eyes.

She nodded and he continued, "I am very eager to know what it is that you did to young Mr. Malfoy out on the courtyard just now." He said.

"Honestly sir, I have no idea." She sighed and told him what she'd told Fred earlier, "It was just such a strange feeling, I wanted to hurt him for hurting her and I just…I don't know." She said and slumped in the chair.

He leaned back in his and looked thoughtful for a moment, "Do you remember when we discussed your family's magic, Miss Vergo?" He asked.

She nodded, recalling the conversation, "This is just that, your family's magic playing out that is. As seen by the locket's appearance on Miss Granger it was just your magic protecting her." He said, smiling at her.

"So I can't control it then?" She said, "That's just going to happen each time I'm with Mione and somebody hurts her?" She asked.

"I don't believe that you won't be able to control it at all, you probably will once you get used to it, but your magic has reached out to her and won't allow her to get hurt when it can be stopped." He said and Cassie nodded.

"There was something else I was wondering, sir." She said.

He leaned forward, "I'm all ears."

She took a deep breath, "My eyes…. Whenever I get angry they glow and….well…..why?" She said, trying to come up with a question.

He sighed, "I'm afraid that I can't answer that, your mother had the same question when she went here and we could not figure it out. I suggest you just leave it for now, Miss Vergo. It will probably show when it is time."

….

Cassie was sitting in the common room when Fred and George followed by Lee walked in.

"Hey, where's everybody?" She asked as the boys sat down around her.

"Some commotion in the hall…" George said.

"Filch's cat was dead or something…" Fred continued, wrapping an arm around the girl, drawing her closer.

"And someone had written in blood on the wall." Lee sighed, leaning back against the couch from his place on the floor.

Cassie looked slightly confused, "Just a normal day at Hogwarts then?" She said and the boys laughed.

…..

Cassie sat next to Hermione in Transfiguration when Professor McGonagall spoke up, "Can I have your attention please?" She asked and the students turned to look at her.

"Right. Now, today, we will be transforming animals into water goblets." She said and demonstrated on the bird next to her, 'One, two, three. Vera Verto.' She said and the bird promptly changed shape.

"Now it's your turn." She said and walked closer to them, "Who would like to go first?" She asked, looking around the room.

Her eyes landed on Ron, "Ah, Mr. Weasley." She said and walked up to the boy, "One, Two, Three. Vera Verto." She repeated.

He cleared his throat and repeated the words, but because of his broken wand his rat turned into a furry goblet with a tail.

The students laughed and Cassie saw McGonagall look at him sternly, "That wand needs replacing, Mr. Weasley." She said before walking away.

Hermione raised her hand and McGonagall turned to her, "Yes, Miss Granger?"

Hermione looked a bit unsure before speaking up, "Professor, I was wondering if you could tell us about the Chamber of Secrets?" She asked.

The Professor looked around the classroom with an uncertain look in her eyes before speaking, "Very well." She said and went to stand in front of the class once again.

"You all know, of course, that Hogwarts was founded over a thousand years ago by the four greatest wizards and witches of the age: Godric Gryffindor, Helga Hufflepuff, Rowena Rawenclaw and Salazar Slytherin." She said and started walking around the room, "Now three of the founders coexisted quite harmoniously. One did not." She said and looked around.

"Three guesses who." Cassie heard Ron say to Harry.

The Professor glanced at him before continuing, "Salazar Slytherin wished to be more selective about the students admitted to Hogwarts. He believed magical learning should be kept within all-magic families. In other words, pure-bloods." She gave Draco a look, "Unable to sway the others he decided to leave the school. Now, according to legend…..Slytherin had built a hidden chamber in this castle known as the Chamber of Secrets. Though, shortly before departing, he sealed it until that time when his own true Heir returned to the school. The Heir alone …would be able to open the Chamber and unleash the horror within, and by so doing purge the school of all those who, in Slytherin's view, were unworthy to study magic." She finished.

"Muggle-borns." Hermione said and gave a sad sigh.

The Professor nodded, "Well, naturally, the school has been searched many times. No such Chambers has been found." She said and walked back up to the front.

"Professor? What exactly does the legend tell us lies within the Chamber?" Hermione asked.

"The Chamber is said to be the home of something only the Heir of Slytherin can control. It is said to be the home of a monster." The Professor said before turning to continue the lesson.

…..

Cassie sat by the lake, silently gazing out on it, singing softly to herself, not noticing the person watching her from afar, "Just close your eyes, the sun is going down. You'll be alright, no one can hurt you now. Come morning light, you and I'll be safe and sound."

Fred leaned against the castle wall, watching the young girl sitting by herself.

"You like her, don't you?" The question came from his right and he turned to look at his brother.

"Is it that obvious?" He asked.

George nodded, "I'm surprised she hasn't noticed yet." He slid down the wall to sit on the ground.

Fred sighed, "She'll laugh if she does find out." He said and sat down next to his brother.

George just looked at him, "She won't."

"How do you know?" Fred asked him.

"Because I happen to know that she likes you too." He said before standing up.

Cassie's head snapped up when she heard her name being called, "Oi! Cassie!"

Fred and George were walking towards her, wearing identical grins.

She smiled at them, "Hi guys."

Fred sat down next to her and George leaned against a nearby tree.

"Why aren't you with Hermione and the boys?" George asked.

She shook her head, "Their newest obsession is the Chamber of Secrets, not really something I want to involve myself in." She said and leaned against Fred's shoulder.

They nodded and Fred spoke up, "Want to help us with our latest prank?" He asked with a mischievous glint in his eye.

….

Cassie and Hermione stood in the stands watching Gryffindor's Quidditch match against Slytherin, sighing when Slytherin, once again, scored a goal.

"ANOTHER GOAL FOR SLYTHERIN! THEY LEAD GRYFFINDOR 90 TO 30." Lee's voice rang out and Cassie looked around, searching for Fred amongst the players.

"He's over there." Hermione said and pointed to a figure at the far end of the pitch.

Cassie turned to her, looking startled, "How did you…"

"Know?" Hermione interrupted her, "I'm your best friend, I notice things." She said, "You're kinda obvious too. But don't worry, a little bird told me he feels the same." She said and turned back to the game just in time to watch Slytherin score.

Not soon after they had turned back a Bludger hit their Keeper's broom, making him fall down to the ground.

The Gryffindors groaned and Cassie watched as a different Bludger started following Harry, trying to knock him off too.

"Blimey! Harry's got himself a rogue Bludger." She heard Hagrid say behind her, "That's been tampered with that has."

"I'll stop it." Ron said and raised his wand.

Hermione knocked his arm down, "No! Even with a proper wand, it's too risky. You could hit Harry." She said.

The Bludger followed Harry around the stands, up and down, although when Harry flew around them the Bludger just crashed right through.

He stopped after a while and seemed to be talking to Draco when the Bludger made its presence known again, but this time Draco shot after them as Harry had spotted the Snitch.

Cassie strained to see them when they flew under the construction holding the stands up.

She felt Hermione grab her hand and squeeze, looking at Cassie with a small smile.

She let out a small laugh when Draco tumbled up from where they had been and landed on his arse in the middle of the pitch.

Hermione let out a gasp next to her when they saw the Bludger crash into Harry's arm, and even though it seemed to hurt like hell he continued playing, making Cassie smile.

'He never gives up, does he?' She thought just before Harry crashed onto the ground, Snitch in hand.

Hermione tugged on her arm, "Let's go." She said and started moving down to the boy.

"HARRY POTTER HAS CAUGHT THE SNITHC! GRYFFINDOR WINS!" Came blaring out whilst they hurried down towards the boy on the ground.

Cassie stopped and watched in slight horror as the Bludger came back and tried to maim Harry into the ground once more, hearing Hermione shout out, "Finite Incantatem!" at the Bludger, making it explode into little pieces.

Cassie hurried up to him, taking his arm gingerly into her hands, "Are you okay?"

"No, I think my arm's broken." Harry said, hissing faintly when she examined the arm.

She stood back up when Professor Lockhart sat down next to Harry and started speaking to him, leaving him with Hermione and Ron.

She stood next to Hagrid looking around when she felt two arms sneak their way around her.

"Hi." She said leaning back into the person's chest.

"So, what'd you think of the game?" Fred asked, tightening his arms around her.

"You were good." She said.

"Ten galleons says Lockhart's a fraud." Cassie heard him say, watching as the Professor in question waved his wand at Harry's arm, her eyes growing wide as it seemed he had removed the bones completely instead of fixing them.

She shook her head, "I'm not even going to bet against that." She said before untangling his arms, following Hermione to the hospital wing.

…..

She sat next to Harry's bed, holding his good hand whilst they waited for Madam Pomfrey.

She looked at him, "Lockhart's a fraud, right?" She whispered to him and he nodded in answer before Pomfrey walked into the room.

"Mr. Malfoy, stop making such a fuss. You can go now. Out of my way." The Matron said to the Groaning boy a couple of bed's over, before making her way through the crowd gathered around Harry's bed.

"Should have been brought straight to me." She said and stopped next to his bed, "I can mend bones in a heartbeat, but growing them back…" She said and poured some potion into a glass.

"You will be able to, won't you?" Hermione asked.

"Oh, I'll be able to, certainly. But it'll be painful. You're in for a rough night, Potter." She said and handed him the glass, "Regrowing bones is a nasty business."

Harry took a sip of the potion just to spit it out again with a disgusted face, which made the Matron shake her head.

"What did you expect? Pumpkin juice?" She asked and refilled the glass.

Cassie stood up and dropped a kiss to his forehead, "Feel better, Harry." She said before walking out.

….

She hadn't gotten very far when she met a tall blond man in the hall, who looked very much like Draco.

He looked at her with a sneer which dropped once they made eye-contact.

"I assume you are Miss Vergo?" He said in a tone that made Cassie want to hit him.

She nodded shyly, "You're Draco's father, right?" She asked to which he gave his own nod, although much firmer and no way near as shy as hers had been.

"Well, it was nice to meet you, but I really must be going now." She said and walked away.

She had just sat down in one of the couches in the common room when Fred and George walked in.

"Hey guys, what happened after I'd left?" She asked them when they sat down opposite her.

"Harry took his potion and that's it." George said and leaned back, "How's that mastermind of yours working? Any new pranks we can try?" He asked.

Cassie tapped her chin with her finger, "Well, there's this one thing…but I'm not sure it's going to work." She said.

"Well, let's hear it." Fred said.

"What if, we could somehow sneak into the Slytherin's common room and…." She trailed off, searching for the right word, "Sort of, charm something of theirs to play a very annoying song, preferably muggle." She saw the gears in the boys heads start to turn, "It has to be something small, easily hidden." She said and looked thoughtful.

"I got it!" George said and raced up the stairs to their dorm.

Fred smirked at her, "We're corrupting you, aren't we?" He said and sat down next to her.

"Well, I don't mind." She said with a smirk of her own, dropping a kiss to his cheek before walking out of the room.

Had she turned around she would have noticed his hand creep up to touch the place she'd just kissed.

….

Okay, lame ending I know, but look at it from the bright side, I just gave you a new chapter!
And just to clear things up, Cassie will not be going into the Chamber with Harry and Ron, I have another plot coming up for her.

I really need to know if you want them to get together now or later, and maybe give me some suggestions on who Harry should end up with, I already know who I'll put Ron with, ( It isn't Hermione) and on that note who she should end up with too.

Please R&R!
