Hermione, Ron, and harry were sitting at the Gryffindor table when Dumbledore came to the front of the great hall and said
" Boys and girls I have an announcement to make" He paused. " We have a new girl joining us today, her name is Melanie Matthew." " Evan though this is the middle of the year she will have to use the sorting hat too." Melanie walked over to a stool sat down and waited while McGonagall Put the sorting hat on her. "Lots of wisdom I see" said the sorting hat " and lots of power" harry turned his attention away from Melanie for a second to take a glance at dumbledore. Dumbledore looked worried as if he know something he was not telling. When harry looked back at the sorting hat he saw it had made its decision. The sorting hat shouted "Gryffindor." Lots of people cheered, as Melanie walked over and took an empty seat next to Hermione.
Every one went back to doing what they were doing including Ron and Harry. But Hermione had something else in mind. She was going to try to meet Melanie. " Hello" said hermione.
" oh hello" said Melanie " who are you?" She said " Oh Hermione Granger, so how do you like hogwarts so far?" " oh its pretty cool, so what do you guys do around here for fun?" Said melanie.
" Well" said Hermione " Some people play Quidditch, but I am more one to watch." " Quidditch" she said with a questioned look on her face. " oh yes quidditch that game you play on brooms right." " You have never heard of quidditch before?" Asked hermione. " well you see where I used to go we usually stayed inside, in the library and stuff. Ron and Harry looked up from there studies with a look on there face that hermione could tell read " are you weird or what." But Hermione did not care she actually probably had the brightest smile she had ever had before. " So who are you guys" Melanie said looking at Ron and Harry. " Harry potter my boyfriend" said Hermione. " and you?" she said looking at ron.
" oh" hermione said " that's Ron weasley." " But anyway about you, do you like to read?" Said hermione " like to" said Melanie " I love to read"
Melanie I think this is going to be the beginning of a beautiful friendship. But little did hermione know this is going to be the beginning of her worst nightmare.
