In the Great Hall, Harry and Ron started to really think about where Hermione could be.

"Maybe she's sick and stayed in bed," Ron suggested.

"No. Not Hermione. Even if she had pneumonia, she'd still come to class. The only times she ever missed anything were when she was a cat, when she was petrified, and with that stupid timeturner. Those were extreme, and I don't think she'd miss class for a cold," Harry said.

"Yeah, you're right," agreed Ron, "it's probably just me."

"Let's go up to the common room; maybe she'll be there."
