Chapter 9: Hogwarts Point of View

*Hermione*

Hermione Jean Granger didn't know what to think when the man jumped in front of her. He was tall and handsome with short, spiky black hair and glowing green eyes that sparkled from his goggles. His shoulders were broad and strong and he had muscles. He also had a metal arm. He was the Soldier.

The Soldier was a ghost, a fear factor. Any "bad guys" were oh so very fearful of him. Frankly Hermione was just a bit fearful of the man.

Then she found out. The Soldier A.K.A James "Bucky" Barnes Jr. was Harry James Potter, Alice Potter's brother. Hermione didn't exactly like the redhead; she more likely tolerated her. She was part of the Golden Quartet mostly because of Ron's twin sister, Ginny.

Hermione had met Ginny and two other girls, Susan Bones and Hannah Abbott on the train and the four had become quick friends. Alice, Ron and Hermione were sorted in Gryffindor while Hannah and Susan were in Hufflepuff and Ginny was in Ravenclaw. That year was extremely scary. At Halloween, Ron had made fun of her sending her into the bathroom crying. There Ginny, Alice and Ron had teamed up and saved her. They had gone through Quidditch where Alice had nearly died and went for the Philosophers Stone. After Ginny had sung Fluffy to sleep and got them out of the vines, Alice had gotten the key, they had fought a second troll and Ginny was knocked out, Ron was knocked at the chessboard and Alice had gone through the flames.

Second year, A basilisk got out. It was soon identified to be Luna Lovegood, a first year Ravenclaw, who was bullied and mistreated and sunk into a magic diary that held Tom Riddle A.K.A Lord Voldemort's horcrux. Flitwick was horrified and Cho Chang and Ginny soon became friends with the strange girl who ended up being a seer to Professor Trelawney delight.

The next year Peter Pettigrew had gotten loose from Askaban. Dementors were on Hogwarts grounds and Sirius Black, James Potter, Lily Evans Potter and Remus Lupin became teachers. Professor Black became the Physical Fitness professor, Professor Potter became the joint Transfiguration professor, Professor Evans became the Charms teacher and Professor Lupin became the Care of Magic Creatures. Peter Pettigrew managed to sneak into the Gryffindor Tower and tried to kill Alice but Lavender, who was getting water, shot a stunner at him before he could harm her. He was sent to Askaban and everything went back to normal.

Fourth Year, the Triwizard Tournament came to Hogwarts along with Beauxbatons and Durmstrang. The champions were Viktor Krum, Fleur Delacour, Cedric Diggory and Alice Potter. Alice had nearly died at the first task but managed to pull it off with her broom. The second task they used Gillyweed which was very effective and Alice got Ron and Gabriel, Fleur's captive. Then there was the Yule Ball where Hermione went with Viktor. Fleur went with a Ravenclaw boy, Alice went with Ron and Cedric went with Ginny. The last task was a maze. The cup ended up being a portkey taking Alice to Voldemort where he was resurrected by Lucius Malfoy who later was arrested and his wife became the leader of the Malfoy family.

This year was already horrible. Their new Defense teacher (the position was cursed they said) was a horrid, pink wearing, toad like woman named Umbridge, hated Voldemort and still thought he was dead. She refused to talk about him and if anyone said anything about him and if they did, the person would get detention. And Umbridge's detention's were horrible! She used blood quills on them!

Hermione shook her head with a sigh as she continued with her work.

*Neville*

Neville was deathly afraid of Bucky Barnes. He was scary! He was friends with Draco Malfoy, had a bloody metal arm and was cold and curt. The first time Neville had actually met him was when Hufflepuff's and Slytherin's had Herbology together.

Flashback

Neville was late. To Herbology. His favorite class. He cringed as his Head of House gave him a stern look. "Please sit next to Mr. Barnes, Mr. Longbottom." Neville froze as his eyes slid where the tall, metal-armed man was sitting. He walked by Susan and Hannah who gave him sorrowful stares.

Sprout began talking about Venus Fly Traps before a Ravenclaw flew in. "The Headmaster needs you, ma'am!" She said brightly.

"Thank you, Ms. Lovegood. Read Chapter 4 of your books and I will be right back." She left, the bubbly (and quite pretty) blond girl bouncing after her. Silence took over the class before Malfoy ruined it.

"Late for class again, Longbottom?" He sneered. "Were you afraid of failing this class like all the others?" Neville's face burned.

"N-No." He stuttered. Malfoy, Parkinson, Crabbe, Goyle and Nott all laughed loudly as Neville shrunk back.

"Read, Malfoy." Barnes drawled coldly.

"What?" The blond boy demanded. Barnes looked up icily.

"Read. Besides, isn't Neville getting a better grade than you in this class?" Malfoy flushed but stayed quiet.

What? Neville thought, glancing in bewilderment at his friends who looked just as confused.

End Flashback

Neville thought of the handsome male warily. He was a Slytherin, curt and cunning, yet had the loyalty of a Hufflepuff (as everyone had seen in the Hogsmeade battle), the knowledge of a Ravenclaw (his grades were second to Hermione Granger's) and the bravery of a Gryffindor. Neville shook his head. He'd better get on his Potions assignment. Snape was a right git when it came to them.

*Cho*

Harry Potter...Bucky Barnes...The Soldier... They were all the same person and all equally sexy as hell. The soft, short locks of black hair...gorgeous emerald eyes that sparkled...Cho sighed.

Bucky wasn't anything like Cedric. Cedric was handsome with lean, fit muscles and golden hair and amber eyes...Bucky was...different. Tall with broad shoulders and incredibly loyal and protective of his friends.

Cho sighed again. She remembered when she was at Hogsmeade with her friend Allyson of Hufflepuff and her "little sister" Luna. The Death Eaters had come and Cho remembered being scared, keeping Luna behind her and Ally. Then they had come.

A group of teenagers had come and, using force not magic (except for a blond haired boy who reminded her of Malfoy), defeated the Death Eaters. And then she saw Bucky.

He was clad in an outfit her mother would despise. His upper body had black and dark green leather clothing, black leather pants fit his body and a pair of black combat boots completed the outfit. A pair of goggles and mask covered his face but Cho could see green eyes practically glowing.

Then he killed the Bellatrix Lestrange. Cho thought it was extremely hot and enticing. He had stalked over to their Professors who had poofed up and Cho frowned when she heard Ginny Weasley (her fellow Ravenclaw and a good friend) whisper, the Order of the Phoenix. It confused Cho greatly but she shrugged it off as the handsome male turned around...and Dumbledore hit him with a stunner.

She remembered shrieking with Ally and hearing Hermione, Ginny and Luna gasp loudly in shock. She heard Dumbledore's explanation and was furious.

He saved our lives! Cho wanted to yell. And you hit him with a bloody stunner?!

Then the Hogwarts thing went up. He accidentally hit Dudley Dursley, a proud arrogant Hufflepuff who thought his precious Lavender would never cheat on him (trust me, she did many times). Dudley was mad now, apparently he had boasted that he kicked Bucky's arse and Lavender just giggled loudly as he lied.

No one could stop my Bucky, Cho sighed as she smiled at the collage of photos of the male she loved, You will be mine, James Barnes...

*Daphne*

If you told Daphne Greengrass that she'd be falling in love with a god this year, you'd end up with hexes all over your body. She loved a person with slicked back blond hair, a snarky attitude and gorgeous green eyes.

She loved Lftor Lokison.

Daphne didn't know how or why it happened. It just did. Daphne sighed deeply. How had she fallen in love with him. He was horribly mean to her... and you love him. I do. Daphne thought.

I truly do.

She sighed as she continued. Bucky Barnes, he might help her. Yes. She gain help from him. To get Lftor to like her enough to date her. Daphne beamed brightly.
