《Hermione Granger》
Settling together in their compartment after they had changed into school robes with armfuls of candy, Hermione began to quiz the Raj and Yao, whose robes lacked color.
"What's the surprise?" She demanded, glaring at them from one side of the compartment.
Raj winked at her. "We can't tell you or it wouldn't be a sur-"
"It's like the Hunger Games except death isn't required," Yao said flatly.
"Yao!" Raj whined. "Why are you always so cynical? It'll be fun!"
"C'mon, mate," Ron begged, "Tell us!"
"Tell you what?" A cold voice sneered.
Hermione grimaced. Malfoy.
"Tell you about what's going to be happening at Hogwarts?" Malfoy sighed mockingly. "I suppose your father isn't high enough in the Ministry to know about stuff like this- my father and Fudge probably wouldn't talk about anything important in front of him."
"You bloody-" Ron began furiously.
Hermione hurriedly dragged him back with Harry, though she was tempted to punch Malfoy again like she did last year.
Raj said some stuff in Hindi while glaring at Malfoy, none of which Hermione felt was pleasant.
"Goodbye," Malfoy said, smirking and walking off.
Yao sighed. "Ignore him. People like him aren't worth it. Spend your time on those that can give you something beautiful in return."
When he said that, he sounded as if he had seen everything there was to see. Hermione frowned, remembering how Raj looked after her speech and how Harry had told her about Yao singing him to sleep.
Maybe they were just really mature. Or maybe...
Whatever it was, Hermione was certain that something was going on. When she had shared this with Harry and Ron lasr night, they had dismissed the idea, but Hermione refused to. The instant she was back at Hogwarts, she was going to borrow Harry's cloak of invisibility and do some research in the restricted area of the library.
Whatever it was, she was going to get to the bottom of it.

Ridiculously short chapter to make my progress seem greater by having more chapters™
I've pretty much got the ingredients for every Pottertalia fic ever now: England asking fellow nations to go to Hogwarts, disaster strikes, everyone becomes friends, and Hermione is the only one out of the Golden Trio that notices that these new people are a bit fishy.
So this fic isn't that original. But the characters used inside aren't common! I've noticed that the Asians aren't used too often in other fics, so...
And a big thank you to any followers, favoriters, and positive reviewers now and in the future! To any negative reviewers now and in the future...
Thank you for taking time out of your day to contribute to mine.
