A/N: Just one thing to say. Azaelia Sapphire—hey look, I fixed it! I'll thank you and everything in the next chapter though.

DISCLAIMER: We no own. J.K. Rowling and Disney do.

Chapter 5: The First Day Back to School

Hermione woke up early and finished reading 'Hogwarts, a History' for the twentieth time. She turned the last page after all the girls in her dormitory had left. She was walking to the Library when she broke out in song.

(To tune of Belle from Beauty and the Beast)

[Hermione:]


Big school
It's a boarding school
Ev'ry day
Like the one before
Big school
Full of little Students
Waking up to say:

[Students:]


Hullo!
Hullo!
Hullo! Hullo! Hullo!

[Hermione:]


There goes the Slytherin with his cronies, like always
The same old smirk and bleach blonde hair

Ev'ry morning just the same
Since the morning that we came
To this poor provincial town

[McGonagall:]

Good Morning, Hermione!

[Hermione:]

'Morning, Professor.

[McGonagall:]

Where are you off to?

[Hermione:]


The library. I just finished the most wonderful book
About Hogwarts and and it's history and –

(Fred and George are heard trashing Potions room)

[McGonagall:]


That's nice. Weasleys! The detention! Tonight!

[Female Students:]


Look there she goes that girl is strange, no question
Dazed and distracted, can't you tell?

[Pansy:]

Never part of any crowd

[Millicent:]


'Cause her head's up on some cloud

[Students:]


No denying she's a funny girl that Hermione

[Ravenclaw I:]

Hullo!

[Hufflepuff I:]

Good day!

[Ravenclaw I:]

How is your fam'ly?

[Hufflepuff II:]

Hullo!

[Ravenclaw II:]

Good day!

[Hufflepuff II:]

How is your boyfriend?

[Harry:]

I need six inches!

[Ron:]

Well I need eight!

[Hermione:]


There must be more than this provincial life!

[Madame Pince:]

Ah, Hermione.

[Hermione:]


Good Morning. I've come to return the book I borrowed.

[Madame Pince:]

Finished already?

[Hermione:]


Oh, I couldn't put it down. Have you got anything new?

[Madame Pince:]

Not since yesterday.

[Hermione:]


That's all right. I'll borrow . . . . . this one!

[Madame Pince:]


That one? But you've read it three times!

[Hermione:]


Well, it's my favourite! Far off places, daring
duels, elf rights, and their fight for freedom –

[Madame Pince:]


If you like it all that much, it's yours!

[Hermione:]

But sir!

[Madame Pince:]

I insist.

[Hermione:]


Well, thank you. Thank you very much!

[Male students:]


Look there she goes that girl is so peculiar
I wonder if she's feeling well

[Female students:]


With a studious, far-off look

[Male students:]


And her nose stuck in a book

[Students:]


What a puzzle to the rest of us is Hermione

[Hermione:]


Oh, isn't this amazing?
It's my fav'rite part because --- you'll see.
Here's where they meets win a battle
But it won't count 'cuz they're all on their side!

[Pansy:]


Now it's no wonder that her name means "Smart minded"
Her grades have got no parallel

[Hannah Abbot:]


But behind those excellent
I'm afraid she's rather odd
Very diff'rent from the rest of us

[Students:]


She's nothing like the rest of us
Yes, diff'rent from the rest of us is Hermione!

[Goyle:]


Wow! You didn't miss a Hufflepuff, Draco!
You're the greatest Slytherin in the whole school!

[Malfoy:]

I know.

[Goyle:]


No beast alive stands a chance against you. ---
And no girl, for that matter.

[Malfoy:]


It's true, Goyle. And I've got my sights set on that one

.

[Goyle:]

The Professors' pet?

[Malfoy:]


She's the one - the lucky girl I'm going to go out with.

[Goyle:]

But she's –

[Malfoy:]


The smartest girl in school.

[Goyle:]

I know, but –

[Malfoy:]


That makes her the best. And don't I deserve the best?

[Goyle:]


Well, of course! I mean you do, but –

[Malfoy:]


Right from the moment when I met her, saw her
I said she's intelligent and I fell
Here in school there's only she
Who is as intelligent as me
So I'm making plans to woo and go out with Hermione

[Slytherin girls:]


Look there he goes
Isn't he dreamy?
Mister Malfoy

Oh he's so cute!
Be still my heart
I'm hardly breathing
He's such a tall, rich, blonde and handsome guy!

[Ravenclaw I:]

Hullo!

[Malfoy:]

Pardon

[Ravenclaw II:]

Good day

[Ravenclaw III:]

All right?

(They enter the Great Hall)

[Collin:]

Is this my essay?

[Ginny:]

What lovely quills!

[Dean:]

My Potions homework

[Ron:]

I need Ten inches!

[Harry:]

Three inches

[Malfoy:]

'scuse me!

[Ginny:]

I'll get a tape measure

[Malfoy:]

Please let me through!

[Ginny:]

This essay –

[Collin:]

That parchment -

[Ginny:]

It's stained!

[Collin:]

I'll take a picture!

[Ron:]

Snape won't accept it.

[Hermione:]


There must be more than this provincial life!

[Malfoy:]


Just watch, I'm going to make Hermione my girlfriend!

[Students:]


Look there she goes
The girl is strange but special
A most peculiar Fifth-year!
It's a pity and a sin
She doesn't quite fit in
'Cause she really is a funny girl
A smart but a funny girl
She really is a funny girl
That Hermione!

Hermione walked from the Great Hall reading her book on House-Elves and their past rights. Maybe she would work on S.P.E.W. this year…

Harry got a letter later than night that Sirius would be coming to Hogwarts in one week. Harry couldn't wait to see his godfather.

A/N: Okay, proof that reviews help writers write. I didn't plan to do the last chapter nor this one this fast. All it takes is one review. If you want to know when there will be a new chapter I can make a mailing list thingy. Just tell me that you want to be on it, and your e-mail.

Naughtynat: Thankyou for your review! Aw, we feel so loved, me being on your favourites list. We know most of them by heart as well.
