Dawn was sitting in the great hall, alone, writing a letter to Remus, having already written a basic letter to Buffy saying she was alive and well.
Dear Uncle Remus, Thought I would tell you how my first day went. I got in a little bit of trouble... okay maybe a lot. Firstly I designed a new uniform, but had to change causing me to miss History of Magic. Although by people's expressions as they left the class it might have been a good thing. Then I ignored Snape and exploded my potion on him. But that was a complete accident. Oh and of course I found out from Professor Trelawney that I am pregnant with Draco Malfoy's baby. One last thing...I kinda yelled at Umbridge (Who works for the Ministry and is evil) when she said that Harry lied about Voldie being back. But other than that I have had fun by annoying and shocking people, especially Snape. Talking of annoying people I am pulling a prank tonight, well that is if the twins and Lee have got the potion made. It will be at dinner on a fellow Gryffindor, Seamus, who deserves it. Did I tell you that I got into Gryffindor? Oh well I am telling you now. Anyway how are you and the 'dog'? Love you lots
Your favourite troublemaker, Dawn.
'There, that should do. All I have to do is send it. Hmm...that involves owls. Yuck!' Dawn thought, shuddering.
Dawn was pulled out of her thoughts as she heard footsteps walking towards the entrance of the great hall. Dawn turned in her seat to see 'her boys' chatting to each other with big cheeky grins. They seemed too involved with their conversation to notice that Dawn was there.
"Hey guys, what are you doing out of class so early?" Dawn asked, making the boys jump.
"We could ask you the same thing," Lee countered back after a moment of slowing his racing heart.
"Yelled at Umbridge," Dawn simply said, shrugging as if it didn't matter.
The boys grinned at her, saying,
"Cool!"
"Thanks guys. What did you do?" Dawn asked.
"Caused an explosion, so we had to leave the room," George said, smirking with the other boys.
"Awesome, wished I could have been there. So did you make the potion?"
"Of course..."
"...do you really think that..."
"...we would let you down," the twins said.
Dawn smiled at her 'boys', amazed at the fact that just being in their presence for such a small time could calm her temper down from her shouting earlier. Thinking about pulling a prank also made her feel calm.
"Now all you have to do is make sure Seamus drinks this," Lee said pulling out a purple potion from his pocket and giving it to her.
"Cheers guys, you're the best!" Dawn said, hugging each of them.

Everyone was in the great hall talking about Dawn yelling at Umbridge and wondering if Lord Voldemort was actually back, though most people didn't agree that he was.
"What I don't get is why they all believed the story two months ago when Dumbledore told them," Harry said in a shaking voice.
Dawn laid a hand on Harry's shoulder and said,
"Harry calm down. They just would rather deny the evidence like Cedric than face up to the fact that a mass murderer is alive again, plus the Ministry's been spreading rumours as well. Look I know it's frustrating, but we have to stay calm about it."
"Calm? What was so calm about you shouting at Umbridge?" Harry asked, shaking slightly.
"Oh Umbridge needed to be put in her place. And it was fun," Dawn said, smirking along with the twins and Ron as Hermione glared.
"If she needed to be put in her place then why couldn't I do it?" Harry asked.
"Harry how many times have I got to tell you? The ministry will use anything to get you expelled and shouting at a person who works for the Ministry isn't a bright idea. I can do it because I am only here for a year, but Hogwarts for you is your whole life, your education. I did it to protect you," Dawn explained.
"You don't have to protect me," Harry hissed at Dawn.
"I know I don't have to, but I WANT to," Dawn said in a loving voice.
Harry went from angry to happy at that comment as he felt so loved and wanted, which was still unnatural for him to feel.
"Thank you," Harry whispered, ashamed that he shouted at Dawn when all she wanted to do was care for him.
"That's okay kiddo. Now I have something that will cheer you up," Dawn replied winking at Lee, who was sitting next to Seamus down the table.
"Dawn what are..." Hermione started but was interrupted by Dawn.
"Shh, just watch," Dawn whispered, pointing secretly down the table.
The group all turned to see Lee pour a purple potion in Seamus's drink, going unnoticed. When Seamus actually drunk his pumpkin juice Dawn and her 'boys' counted down.
"3...2...1"
"AHHHH!" Seamus shouted drawing the whole hall's attention to him as his entire body turned blue quickly, before swelling and expanding like a balloon. Seamus was becoming similar to a large blue ball.
The student's burst out laughing, severing muggle-born people saying,
"That looks like Violet Beauregarde."
"Dawn you didn't?" Hermione asked.
"Me? Why would you accuse me of something like that? But you have to admit he did deserve it," Dawn replied, smirking.

Dawn couldn't stop laughing as she left the great hall. She was just replaying the image of Madam Pomfrey rolling Seamus out to the hospital wing. No-one got into trouble for the incident as there was no evidence, but that wasn't going to stop McGonagall investigating.
"Dawn Snape wait a moment please, hee hee," a sickly sweet voice said as Dawn was about to go up the stairs.
Dawn's laughter stopped at the sound of Umbridge. The others stopped as well and were ready to stand up for Dawn, but she didn't want them to get in trouble so motioned them to carry on.
Dawn paused for a second, taking in a deep breath before turning and saying, in a fake happy tone,
"Yes Professor?"
"You have detention in my office for the incident in my classroom earlier," Umbridge said.
"Detention?" Dawn asked.
'Knew I shouldn't have believed that I would get away with it,' Dawn thought.
"Yes Miss Snape, follow me," Umbridge instructed.
"Well this is just great," Dawn muttered sarcastically.

The surfaces of Umbridge office had all been draped in lacy covers and cloths. There were several vases full of dried flowers, each one residing on its own doily, and on one of the walls was a collection of ornamental plates, each decorated with a large technicolour kitten wearing a different bow around its neck.
'Urgh girly. Vomit,' Dawn thought.
Dawn spotted a desk in the middle of the room with paper and quills on it.
"Sit down. You're going to do some lines for me today, Miss Snape. I want you to write "I must not tell lies" with my 'special quill'."
'What's so special about her quill? Her quill is just like any other quill. And doing lines, that's hardly a punishment,' Dawn thought as she sat down.
"How many lines exactly?" Dawn asked, trying hard not to be rude.
"Well, let's say...as long as it takes for the message to sink in," umbridge answered in a creepy manner.
'What the...? She's up to something! And there isn't any ink, how am I suppose to do lines? Is she that stupid?'
"What about ink?"
"Oh you won't be needing ink, Miss Snape," Umbridge said.
'Weirdo,' Dawn thought, but begun writing.
After a few moments she felt a stinging on her hand. She turned her hand over and saw the words 'I must not tell lies' on the back of her hand, deep red and bleeding slightly.
Dawn looked up to see Umbridge smiling slightly and a twinkle in her eye. Dawn realised that she was pleased at Dawn's groans of pain and was getting Dawn back for showing her up in class.
'Evil cow!'
"Problem, Miss Snape?" Umbridge asked.
"Yes, this is child abuse, I could report you!" Dawn said, gritting her teeth and standing up.
"You could do that, but then you wouldn't want me to give the same punishment to Harry Potter and your other friends," Umbridge replied.
Dawn was speechless. Umbridge was blackmailing her, knowing that her friends were her weakness. All she could do now was sit down, except this and get her back later on.
Umbridge smirked evilly at Dawn as she sat down.
'Smirk now b***h, 'cause you won't be for long'.

'Don't cry, don't cry, don't cry,' Dawn chanted in her head as she left Umbridge's office. 'I have faced a god, I can get over this...even if my hand hurts like HELL!'
Dawn was so caught up in her thoughts that she walked straight into someone.
"Hey watch where you going!" the person said.
Dawn said nothing, just kept walking with her head down to the floor.
Well that was until the person grabbed her hand and stopped her. Dawn groaned at pressure on her wound.
"Dawn what's wrong?" the person asked, concerned.
Dawn looked up, now recognising that the voice belonged to Draco Malfoy. Dawn was shocked that Draco Malfoy was actually showing concern for more than just himself.
"Draco, what are you doing here? And nothing's wrong," Dawn replied, trying to keep her voice level but failed.
"I had detention with McGonagall. And I know something's wrong when you're not acting like your normal self."
"I haven't hung out with you in years. For all you know I have changed. Nothing's wrong!" Dawn replied back.
"If nothing's wrong then why is your hand bleeding?" Draco asked.
Dawn looked at her hand to see that her hand was actually bleeding and covered it with her sleeve.
"No point doing that now, I've seen it! So who did this to you?" Draco asked.
"None of your business," Dawn hissed.
Something dawned on Draco as he noticed the direction she was coming from.
"Did Umbridge do this to you? I'll kill her!" Draco replied, angry at the fact that someone would do that to his sister.
'Wait sister? Don't think of Dawn as your sister!'
"Don't you dare! I can handle this on my own. Forget about it and got back to being the 'dark prince'," Dawn hissed at him then stomped off towards her house.
