MoonLight: Thanks to all the reviewers! Loves you all!
Walking through the stony path seemed to take forever. Probably because the first years have to make it all the way across the lake. Hermione couldn't stop thinking about her dream. What if that actually happened? She shook the thought out of her head. The sorting hat was never wrong.
"Now, when I call your name, please step up and place the hat on your head." Said Prof. McGonagall, "Grenon, Alexander?"
Alexander stepped up and sat under the hat,
"Slytherin!"
"Jewling, Bradley!"
"Hufflepuff!"
"Summers, Susie!"
"Hufflepuff!"
"Rudner, Andrew!"
"Slytherin!"
And then, finally, "Granger, Andrea!"
Andrea nervously walked up to the main stage. She sat down, Mc Gonagall placed the hat on her head, and she waited.
Everything seemed to be going fine, But all of a sudden,
"Ravenclaw!"
Sparks flew from the hat, just like in the dream. Everyone seemed worried, but Andrea was calm, she probably thought that this is what happens to people who were sorted into Ravenclaw. So she took the hat off and sat down at the Ravenclaw table. Everyone stared at her. No one clapped for her! Andrea realized that the sparks couldn't be normal. She didn't know what to do. So instead of looking dumb, she walked back up onto the stage.
"Ok, let's try this again" called our Mc Gonagall.
Andrea sat under the hat once more, waiting.
"Gryffindor!"
This tome no sparks flew from the hat and everyone seemed to notice. So, the Gryffindors cheered. Hermione's smile was as bright as ever and she was the hardest clapper.
"Pass the chicken, please" Asked Andrea. Hermione passed Andrea some chicken. The rest of the super was pretty uneventful.
When the Gryffindors made it up to the common room, the new prefect, Kathleen, whom Hermione hated because she had wanted to be prefect, said the password,
"Boggart hunt" The fat lady's portrait swung open. The first years were in aw. They had never seen anything like the common room. It was all red, there was a fire place, their were desks for doing homework, their was everything imaginable. Andrea slumped on one of the couches and fell into a deep conversation with Hermione. It wasn't until 8:30 when the Gryffindors were making their way to bed. Hermione, Andrea, Ron and Harry decided that they should go to bed also.
Before Andrea went to bed, she checked her timetable. She had transfiguration first thing on Monday. But she had nothing to worry about, today was Saturday, but not for long.
When Andrea and Ron woke up, Hermione and Harry were already down to breakfast. So they quickly got dressed and went down to the Great Hall to join them. But instead of finding the Hall nice and quiet, they found Hermione and Draco, on the Ravenclaw table, fighting, about something. Andrea and Ron made their way through the crowd. What they saw wasn't a pretty sight. Hermione's robes were covered in blood and Malfoys were the same. When Andrea saw them, she tried to run toward Hermione, but Ron held her back.
"Expelliarmous!" Shouted Hermione.
"Expelliarmous!" Draco shouted back.
Andrea couldn't believe it, her sister was dueling! She was good at it also. But, what if their parents found out? Hermione would be in a lot of trouble. And why weren't any of the professors there to stop the duel? Andrea stopped these questions. She needed to help her sister. So she forced herself out of Ron's arms and went up to the table where everyone was standing around. She got up, and pulled Hermione away.
"What was that about, Hermione?" Asked Andrea while walking toward Dumbledore's office. (Andrea had read Hogwarts-A History Chapter 7 before they arrived in school)
"Well, everything was going fine, and then Malfoy came over and challenged me to a duel because he wanted to see who was the best at making magic. But, of course, I think it was just to impress his dad." Said Hermione. Andrea nodded.
When they got there, Andrea asked Hermione for the password. But Hermione had no clue. But she said,
"I don't know, but Harry said something about the password being Dumbledore's favorite candy or one of his favorite candies."
So Andrea tried some candies until she came up with,
"Creamy Beans" And the gargoyle stretched out and the entrance to the office was visible. Hermione and Andrea walked up about 40 stairs until they came to a door. Hermione knocked on it.
"One moment, please." Dumbledore said. He seemed to be talking to someone. 3 minutes later, "Come in"
Andrea and Hermione walked into the room. They suddenly found out who Dumbledore was talking to. He was talking to Prof. Snape. This was not a good time to talk about Draco hurting someone else because Snape was obviously going to take Draco's side. But, it was serious and the look on Dumbledore's face spelled suspicion. He was wondering why Hermione's school robes were covered in blood.
"Please excuse us professor, but this is really serious. Malfoy challenged Hermione to a duel. She couldn't refuse because he was going to hex her. Well, that's what she told me on the way here. So Hermione agreed. And then things got dirty. Then Ron and I arrived at the Great Hall. And then I took Hermione here. And now I'm telling you this story." Andrea took no breath while saying this, so she was quit out of breath, "Oh, professor? Why weren't there any adults in the Great Hall this morning?"
