Plans And Meetings – Chapter 10

The Phoenix Lord's Apprentice

"Hermione are you ready to go yet or what?" Ron yelled through her suite doors.

"Will you chill she's almost ready and you're not due in the departure hall for another twenty minutes!" A guy around Ron's age said opening the door to Hermione's suite from the inside.

"So? What I'm meant to hang around outside her room while you finish having your fun with her? I don't think so, I haven't gotten to see her more than once or twice on this trip and she's meant to be my friend not yours so back off! HERMIONE GET OUT HERE!" Ron replied angrily.

"Look man chill out we're just trying to talk in here!" Another male voice yelled out.

"What is this? A bloody orgy let me in!" Ron said angrily pushing his way into the room.

Inside sitting in the living area of Hermione's suite were two more boys, besides the one by the door, and a girl.

"No actually it's a group of friends saying goodbye. Got a problem with that?" Hermione said as she exited her bedroom and entered the living suite her hair and complexion back to how they were when they had arrived at the academy.

"Just hurry up we have places to be!" Ron snapped

"And homework to correct…" Hermione mumbled as she folded her last unpacked robe into her trunk.

Ron huffed and left the room angrily as Hermione locked her trunk up.

"It's only going to be for a couple of weeks or so right? You will come and get me right?" Hermione asked anxiously.

"Yes, only for two or so weeks, in which time we will come and collect you your entrance exam and everything will have been marked and your enrolment processed by then ok." Harry said standing up from the couch where he'd been sitting with Jessie.

"Are you ok with that 'Mione?" Chris asked worry creeping into his voice. "I can persuade that Ron guy to leave you alone if you want."

"Thanks Chris… I think, but he's the only one who sits with me in class so I can deal with it, for now anyways. I'm just glad I won't be going back there for long." Hermione replied finally cracking a smile.

"Ok well, we'll walk you down to the departure hall then shall we." Jessie said standing up.

It had been a week since the exchange students had returned to Hogwarts and taken the 'saviour of the wizarding world' (nightmare girl) with them. But something new was happening at the academy, a senior students meeting. Master Irvine had called a meeting of all senior students in the battle conference room.

Chris, Drew, Jessie and Caleb entered the conference room and took a seat each in the large high backed commander chairs that sat around the board room style table.

"Glad you could all make it, now I've called you all here to discuss…" Master Irvine said as the last person took their seat.

A/N: Short and sweet... unlike me... review and i promise the next chapter will totally be longer than oh say... 507 words in length and will be uploaded in less time than this one took! hehehe!!!
