Chapter 11
For her birthday, Hermione decided that her, Lily and Ron should go up to Hogsmeade since it was a Saturday. They agreed. They walked through Hogsmeade talking happily to one another, but it's too bad that they didn't know they were being watched. A man with long silvery hair and about the age of 36 or 37 was watching them.
Every step they took, he followed. When Ron put his arms around Hermione and Lily, the man growled quietly, "Your time is soon coming to an end, Mudblood Granger!" and with a pop, he apparated.

After buying from Zonko's, Flourish and Blott's, and especially Honeydukes, Lily, Ron and Hermione finally got tired of walking and went to The Three Broomsticks. They squeezed into the packed pub and spotted an empty booth near the back of the room.
They headed over to the booth when Ron stopped so abruptly, the girls ran into the back of him. He pointed, " I refused to sit by Slytherins!" Pansy Parkinson and her friends were sitting by the table they wanted. Hermione scoffed and said, "Who cares, let's just ignore them and sit down, they'll probably just ignore us too!"
By the time Madam Rosmerta brought them their butterbeers, Hermione and Lily were howling with laughter because Ron was doing a perfect imitation of Professor Snape. "Well, if it isn't the Potter killer herself." Said a very annoying voice. Pansy Parkinson was standing at the end of their table sneering at them with her arms folded.
"What did you just say?" Ron asked quietly but menacingly. "I Said, Weasley, 'Well, if it isn't the Potter killer herself! Can you not hear?!"Pansy screamed in his ear. Ron's face turned red. "I would be able to hear you perfectly fine, if you would just stop screaming like a banshee!" "Ron!" Hermione said warningly, then faced Pansy. "Look Pansy, could you just leave us alone for once? Today is my birthday and I would like to celebrate it with my friends, now leave!"
"Why would anyone want to celebrate Anything that has to do with a Mudblood like you, Granger?" "What?!" Hermione yelled. "Bloody hell! Why can't any of you Gryffindorks hear?! I said." That's as far as she got. Hermione jumped out of her chair and punched Pansy very hard in the nose! Pansy was screaming hysterically. "My nose!! You stupid mudbl." Hermione's eyes turned from light brown to black, and she was hunched over like a lion that spotted its prey.
Hermione grabbed Pansy's collar and shoved her back into the wall. "Don't you ever call me a Mudblood again, Parkinson." She spat. The room was so quiet, everyone could hear conversations from the neighboring shops. Ron came up behind her with Lily not too far. "Umm, Hermione? I think we'd better go before teachers catch you." Ron said anxiously. Hermione looked at him with a red glint in her eye. She turned back to Pansy, then to Ron and Lily. Her eyes softened and turned brown again, she straightened up. "Yeah, I guess you're right Ron. I'm sorry!" she said to the people who were staring at her.
Hermione smirked evilly at Pansy. "Until next time, Parkinson!" Hermione gave her a mock bow and left with Ron and Lily following her. They found a carriage to go back to Hogwarts and sat down. Ron and Lily looked at her in astonishment. They glanced at each other then back to her, they said at the same time, "Hermione!?" Hermione looked at them innocently, "What?"
