Chapter 4
A golden bird sat on its perch in the corner of a dimly lit room, its beady eyes following his master has his master paced his room muttering to himself in the darkness. "Mudbloods, Mudbloods their every where everywhere…. got to get rid of them…. not pure not supposed to be here. I'll make them all see… they won't miss them when their gone…. all of the Mudbloods gone, gone!"
"Where have you been we had to cover for you as Percy was making his rounds to check that everyone was in. We couldn't speak to Hagrid, as Snape was wondering the halls with his niece! A first year! And god was she scary it was like she could see through walls and …Hermione are you alright?" Hermione looked confused at Ron has she tried to make sense of his strung out sentence. "I'm fine but I'm gonna need you to explain it again about Snape and a first year because you're not making any sense speaking so fast." They all sat by the fire and Ron with the help of Harry described the events of the past forty-five minutes some of which she suspected was over exaggerated.
When Hermione woke up in the morning with visions of a tall figure looming over her and Draco smiling. She shook her head trying to clear her head for the day ahead. Harry and Ron were unusually early for breakfast in hope of getting to speak to Hagrid. Hermione however made her way to breakfast with Ginny who was as excitable as ever due to yet another year at Hogwarts. As they made their way down the stairs Ginny bumped in to a small girl with black hair "I'm sorry are you all right?" The girl slowly turned around "Do you know who I am?" Ginny stared blankly at the girl "You wouldn't know anything anyway you're a Weasley where stupidity is inherited through the genes along with clumsiness I suppose." The girl's friend and the surrounding Slytherins laughed and she walked off towards the main hall. Hermione comforted an upset Ginny explain that the girl was mentally scarred being Snape's niece, which made Ginny laughed. Hermione sat with everyone in her usual spot next to Harry who was chatting away telling her about what Hagrid had in store for their next magical creatures lesson and the up coming Slytherin and Gryffindor Quidditch game. Suddenly Harry was distracted by something on another table, but Ron stopped Hermione saying anything about him not finishing his sentences by pointing out the evil first year and then telling the story to his brothers over exaggerating as per normal.
After breakfast Harry leapt up off his seat and dashed across the hall waving at someone to stop.
"I'm sorry, I know I was rude in the carriage but can you find it in your heart to forgive me?" Sharlene who was already blushing from him chasing her across the hall nodded and couldn't stop smiling when he promised to get her the best seats next to Lee Jordan at the up coming Quidditch match. Diyan found Ron at the end of breakfast and hugged him for having a word to Harry turning Ron's face as red as his hair yet again. "Hermione, I'm going to walk Diyan to Divinations cover for me Okay?" Ron shouted. She sighed and started off towards transfiguration with Lisa Turpin another Gryffindor.
Finally Professor McGonagall let them go and Harry and Hermione walked down the field towards Hagrid's hut for their Magical Creatures lesson. "I'm sorry… I didn't mean to upset you I've apologised to Sharlene and now you've got to forgive me. You know it's much harder to apologise to you because I hate being wrong cause you're always right." Said Harry as the pasted the Lake. "Believe me I'm not always right but I will forgive you "she smiled. As they approached the hut Hermione noticed Draco was looking for her she smiled at him and he edged to the outside of the circle of pupils that had gathered around Hagrid. "I just wanted to check to see if you are okay. I didn't see you at breakfast?" She smiled and told him why she was late and then went to join the other still smiling. Harry looked at her suspicusly "what's going on with you and Draco?" She just smiled and was distinctly aware that Harry was getting protective over her and she didn't care. Hagrid spent the lesson teaching the about magical birds and introduced them to an Fwooper bird whose song can drive people insane so they had to wear earmuffs. At the end of the lesson Harry and Draco ran off to Quidditch practice for the game in three days. Hermione and Ron ran to the warmth of the dinner hall and to the masses of warm food and other delight laid out on the tables for them.
"You better not be playing a prank on Hermione, pretending her friend Draco because she's my best friend and not yours!" Harry shouted at Draco as they split up for Quidditch training. "I'm saving up all my pranks for you Potter why would I waste them on her…. I don't know why she's your friend anyway you left her last night and this morning and you just drop her when you want too if you don't stop she'll drop you and she won't be there to stop me getting at you like she did on the train. You underestimate her Potter and take her for granted." And with that Draco ran off in the direction of the gathering Slytherin team. Harry ran to Quidditch training feeling confused and shaken asking himself why had he not noticed this before and why did it get so bad that Draco had to say something. As Harry and Draco flew through the air on either side of the Quidditch pitch Hermione sat in the Stalls and watched wondering which seeker would win the game for their team on Saturday. She waited till the end of Practice so that she could meet Harry, but Harry sped off towards the castle on his broomstick leaving her waiting in the stands. As she left the Quidditch pitch Draco stepped up behind her "You're not following me Granger are you because I'm starting to get worried." "Sorry to disappoint you but I came looking for Harry but I've missed him." said Hermione with a disappointed tone. Draco smiled "You've simply got to have the last word don't you Granger you can never let it go!" Hermione shook her head "So how did training go?" As they walked up to the castle Draco filled her in on all the details only to be interrupted by the main door by Harry. "Sorry but I went to look for you in the castle Hermione I didn't realise you came to meet me." Harry said staring at Draco. "I'll see you tomorrow Hermione?" She smiled "Yeah okay I'll see you tomorrow." "Harry what the hell did you think you were doing?" She whispered turning angrily to Harry. 2me doing you're the one hanging around with him!" she looked at him and after a pause he said "I'm sorry okay look come on back to the common room and I'll tell you how badly I'm going to bet Draco" "Harry!" So they both went up to the form room and she listen while he told her of his near misses of the Bludgers and of his many catches of the Snitch. But she had this uneasy feeling that she was being watched and she gently hurried Harry to the common room a little fast than she would normally had.
"Mudbloods their everywhere their infecting everyone even the boy who lived and pure bloods their infecting everyone they have to be stopped even those who have been effect must be destroyed casualties of war. The Mudbloods they've got to be stopped…….." The muttering continued as the tall dark figure walked down the corridor past the common room where he paused muttering even louder now "The Mudbloods they're every where and they have got to be stopped."
