Disclaimer: Still don't own any of the characters

A/N: Let me start by saying THANK YOU for every single review, they mean a lot for me

Ok once again I think some of those reviews were flames, the main concern seemed to be that Harry was too OOC and that there wasn't a plot. But explanations can be expected around chapter 7, after that Harry's world won't seem so wonderful anymore and it will start to fall apart, but until then enjoy Harry been a bad boy because it won't last. Yes I do have ideas for a proper plot and yes it does revolve around the potion

And about Hermione she's not the hottest girl in school but she's still quite pretty, you know average teenager really, she should still be in character just a bit more grown up and relaxed over the years as this chapter should show, but feel free to suggest ways to make characters more like themselves (with the exception of Harry, who is obviously meant to be out of character)

Coming up will be funny encounters with Lucius Malfoy, Voldemort and a few other characters, however after a few revelations about Harry's summer in later chapters, Harry will change slightly allowing explanations and hopefully less flame like reviews. After Harry's change he'll see the same characters again only with a different attitude

So to sum up that rambling speech:

1.For about the first five chapters' bad boy Harry gains vengeance against a vast number of characters including both Malfoys, some teachers, and to a much lesser extent Voldemort and a couple of deatheaters

2.Then things start to go wrong for Harry, mood swings and excessive violence kind of sum up about 3 chapters, until somebody talks sense into Harry and he explains all

3.The new Harry then re meets all previous characters and has to deal with them in a manner more like his old self (although he keeps the

new look and flirting style) and Voldemort becomes more important

Draco, Ron and Hermione are all constant factors in this story, sometimes been more important than at others and Draco won't be quite as wimpy as he is at the moment in later chapter, the Hermione romance story will run throughout all chapters

The most important thing to remember is that this is a humorous story and shouldn't be taken too seriously, so of course you will have to suspend belief to read some things like the Snape conversation but it is still funny

Special note for fans of Draco bashing: There will be an extra special chapter especially for you where a duel takes place (may not be quite what you're thinking) but rest assured Draco will be shown up and shown up badly. Further details will be available closer to the time (I'm thinking somewhere around chapter 8 – 10)

'Harry this bad boy look really suits you' Pansy Parkinson blocked Harry's way out of the hall after dinner on Thursday, Ron who had been walking next to Harry had been completely shoved out of the way and wasn't happy about it as he rubbed his arm which had hit the wall

'Pansy do you want something?' Harry asked very coldly as he was forced to come to a complete stop, he wasn't amused that Pansy had practically beaten Ron up to get to him and had no intention of staying around for too long when Hermione was waiting for them in the common room

'Just to say that if you ever want a good time I'm available' Pansy moved very close to Harry who looked disgusted and backed away

'Parkinson I'm not interested, however if you want to make some money I've heard that the local brothel is recruiting, you'll fit in perfectly' Harry snapped in annoyed tones, it was bad enough Gryffindor girls forming their own fan club (Parvati was the founder) but when deatheaters in training came on to him it was terrible

'Draco would never say that to me' Pansy looked highly affronted and turned her nose up

'Well scurry back to him, you suit each other' Harry sneered as Ron laughed, Pansy glared at them both before leaving to try and seduce some other poor fool, the most likely victim was Draco

The next day Ron and Hermione were walking back from the library together after lessons on Wednesday when 'Ronniekins' was shouted by somebody very loudly and echoed through the halls of the school, Ron froze as though turned to stone as he recognised the voice

'Fred why are you here?' Hermione asked realising that Ron didn't seem capable of uttering coherent speech to his elder brother

'Yeah Fred why are you here?' George appeared out of nowhere at Fred's side grinning stupidly

'I came with you idiot' Fred said rolling his eyes

'Oh yeah' George was still grinning very goofily at everybody

'So why are you both here?' Ron asked suspiciously after glaring silently at his twin brothers for a few minutes

'We have heard many wild rumours circulating around Hogsmede and decided that we should investigate' Fred explained in his best detective voice

'What wild rumours?' Hermione asked in surprise, she thought that she would hear all rumours first due to the fact she shared a dormitory with Parvati and Lavender

'About our dear old friend Harry Potter' George said with the grin still firmly in place

'He's playing Quidditch at the moment' Ron said, as long as Fred and George didn't try and play a prank on him he was happy to help them

'Then to the Quidditch pitch we must go' Fred yelled as he led the way.

They arrived at the Quidditch pitch a few minutes later and saw that the Gryffindor team was still practising high up in the air, Harry had become captain in his fifth year and was known for working the team almost as hard as Wood

'So which one's Harry?' George asked after staring at the team in silence for a few minutes, they were all a blur of red

'The one on the broom' Ron said helpfully

'I gathered that', George said sarcastically. 'Wait they're coming down' he squinted as the team all descended together

'Well where's Harry?' Fred demanded after looking at the players who were now walking to the broom shed and realising there was no Harry with them

'Hi', came a voice from above them, everyone looked up and saw Harry hovering above them, he jumped the six-foot to the ground from his broom and landed easily on both feet, his broom descended into his hand

'Well well well, it would appear the rumours are true after all, I owe you 10 galleons George' Fred said as he reluctantly held out the money which George pocketed smugly after counting every single Knut

'What's going on?' Harry looked rather tired as he pushed the stray strand of hair out of his eyes

'We came to see if the famous Harry Potter had rebelled against his little good boy look'

'And what have you discovered?' Harry raised an eyebrow and looked rather interested, he didn't necessarily think he had had the image of a good boy but he still wanted to know how people saw him now

'It would appear to be true, although I don't see the rumoured earring or a tattoo' George summarised, how people got to hear these rumours was somewhat of a mystery, it was like a giant game of Chinese whispers throughout the wizarding world

'I never got an earring but I do have the tattoo' Harry grinned, Ron looked impressed and Hermione didn't scold him like expected but tilted her head and looked rather interested

'So where is this tattoo?' Hermione said in a singsong voice, Ron looked shocked at Hermione who was practically flirting and Harry grinned widely, he had never expected this from his best friend but he was going to make the most of it

'I'm off for a shower, I'll show you if you want to join me' Harry offered with a very sly grin, instead of slapping him as she normally would have Hermione merely smiled although her cheeks looked a little flushed

'Unfortunately I have homework that needs doing' Hermione laughed slightly to try and ignore the fact that at the present moment she was acting more like a Parvati clone than herself

'Maybe some other time' Harry said as his grin faded slightly, he hadn't expected Hermione to accept, in fact he would have fainted from shock if she had but she was looking very appealing and he was after all a teenager

'Maybe' Hermione grinned, Harry grinned back extremely cheekily as he left towards the changing rooms. The three Weasleys were staring at Hermione as though she had just announced her intention to seduce Flitwick, she turned to face them and seeing the looks on their faces asked in a surprised tone 'What?'

'Damn' Harry scowled angrily as Ron took his Queen, it was later the same day and yet another evening was been spent playing Wizards chess, actually Ron and Harry were playing chess and Hermione was busy at the table next to them scribbling extra notes for her Charms homework

'Give up now Harry' Ron advised grinning from ear to ear, he had always loved playing chess, especially with Harry as it was something he could win at

'No way' Harry growled as he bit his tongue in fierce concentration trying to work out what the repercussions of moving his King would be, he still couldn't play this game despite his best efforts

'Fine' Ron shrugged as it came back to his turn, he knew exactly what to do 'Checkmate'

'What? No way. How did that happen?' Harry had been sure that he had been doing all right, and yet Ron had just beaten him with apparent ease

'You tried to take on the master and you lost' Ron said smugly

'Just wait till next time' Harry glared as Ron grinned even more considering doing an elaborate celebration dance and possibly having a letter sent to the entire house letting them know that the perfect Harry Potter had lost at chess

'I look forward to it' Ron smiled infuriatingly, Hermione finally looked up from her books with an exasperated look on her face

'You two could consider stopping your pointless discussion and actually do this homework' she said in her most bossy tones

'We could but we're not going to' Ron was still smiling from his victory

'This homework's important, we have NEWTS next year' Hermione explained for the seventy-third time that year

'Exactly next year, so this year we plan to have fun, right Ron?' Harry said

'Precisely' Ron nodded in complete agreement, he had complete faith in his method of revising right before the exam

'Oh honestly, you two are so immature' Hermione said in irritated tones as she bent back over her books leaving Ron and Harry to start another game

'I've been thinking' Harry announced on Friday evening in the common room, Ron had disappeared to talk to Ginny about something private and Harry was sat next to Hermione just watching her read, which was a lot more interesting than it sounded

'You should leave that to me, we don't want you messing up this lovely hair of yours' Hermione leant over and ruffled Harry's hair

'If anyone else touched my hair, they'd be dead but I'll let you off just this once' Harry growled trying to hide a grin

'Thanks' Hermione said sarcastically, she changed her tone to ask, 'So what have you been thinking about?'

'I think I might get an earring' Harry said rather thoughtfully, he had been thinking about it since Fred and George's visit two days ago

'What type, are you sure you want to?' Hermione was rather surprised, she had never really imagined Harry with an earring, and it was a rather strange thought

'Why not? You have your ears pierced' Harry pointed out, he had never actually realised that Hermione had had her ears pierced but she was definitely wearing earrings, so she must have. He had never actually realised a lot of things till now, but she had suddenly grown up overnight and Harry was astonished that he had only just noticed

'Yes but I'm a girl' Hermione said as though maybe Harry hadn't realised, which he definitely had

'I'd guessed' Harry said before he could stop himself

'So what's stopping you from getting the earring?' Hermione asked quickly as her cheeks went red

'Nothing, do you want to come with me?'

'Why? So I can hold your hand if you need it' Hermione teased

'Very funny' Harry said sarcastically

'I thought so' Hermione smiled as she turned back to her books ready to resume studying

'Excellent' Harry stood up to walk away, but as he walked away a very strange and unusual feeling made Hermione call after him

'You never did show me that tattoo of yours' Hermione shouted, she could have sworn that Harry blushed but he turned looking as cool as usual with a large grin on his face

'You really want to see it?' he asked in surprise, he didn't think Hermione was the type of girl to tease him with such a flirting proposition, but then gain he hadn't thought Hermione was the type of girl to flirt at all

'I do' Hermione confirmed

'Then come with me' Harry said as he pulled Hermione out of her seat, along the corridor and into a nearby storage cupboard filled with towels and sheets for the beds

'Why do you have to show me in here?' Hermione inquired as Harry turned the light on and locked the door, she trusted Harry but couldn't help but be suspicious especially due to his recent change of character

'Don't want anyone else to see' Harry grinned as he lifted his shirt to show the tattoo in question, it was a green dragon with a flame of fire coming out of it's mouth

'It's only the head' Hermione pointed out

'There's more' Harry said and unbuttoned the top of his trousers to show the body of the dragon with the sharp tail of it curling off at the top of his boxers

'It's beautiful' Hermione looked at it and admired the delicate artwork

'You know if anyone saw us this would be a very compromising situation for two prefects to be in' Harry said suggestively in a low throaty whisper, Hermione suddenly reverted to her normal state of mind and looked round quickly assessing the situation

'See you at dinner' Hermione said as though she often met fellow prefects in cupboards, she paused for a moment to add 'by the way nice body' then she unlocked the door and slipped out of the cupboard. Leaving a shocked and confused Harry to collect his thoughts and try and work out whether he was delusional or if Hermione Granger had just said he had a nice body

'Potter I challenge you to a wizards duel' Draco leapt out from an empty classroom early Saturday morning, it looked suspiciously as thought he had been lying in wait for Harry, which he probably had been, the sole purpose of his life now been to show Harry up

'Malfoy don't be a prat' Harry said exasperated, he was on his way to the library with Ron and Hermione and didn't want to waste time on Draco

'What's the matter, scared you might lose?' Draco drawled looking smug for reasons known only to him

'You wish, I just don't think I have the time to spare to bother with you'

'What else could you possibly be doing, except maybe doing it with the mudblood' Draco taunted, he got a response as Harry's face contorted in anger, Ron was ready to leap on Draco and murder him but Hermione was holding him back, she couldn't stop Harry though

'Don't you ever, ever speak about Hermione like that again, apologise now' Harry demanded grabbing Draco by the scruff of his robes with one hand and pushing him against the wall, Hermione shrieked in horror at Harry been so violent

'Get screwed' Draco gasped, Harry pushed Draco further up so that his feet weren't touching the floor

'I said apologise' Harry growled, Hermione was now trying to get Harry to stop, however Ron was cheering him on

'Sorry' Draco spluttered his face bright red, Harry dropped him to the floor

'That's better'

'My father will hear of this' Draco said in a thinly veiled threat as he straightened his robes with as much dignity as he could muster under the circumstances

'Excellent I was meaning to have a few words with him myself' Harry said still growling, Draco's eyes narrowed at this last comment and he left and walked away no doubt to collect Crabbe and Goyle and torment somebody else. But Lucius Malfoy would be coming to Hogwarts very soon to demand justice for his son and Harry had no doubt that he would give him the reception he deserved

'I'm meant to beat Malfoy up, not you' Ron said sulkily as the trio continued their journey to the library

'Tell you what, next time we both do it' Harry offered, Ron's face broke into a grin, however Hermione looked horrified and launched into one of her speeches

'Neither of you will do anything of the sort, imagine if Professor McGonagall found out, we might never make up the number of house points you'd lose. In prefects who gained power the Ravenclaw prefect from in 1975 tells the story of how she had to ….' The rest of Hermione's particular boring lecture on the repercussions of a fight between a Ravenclaw and a Hufflepuff was lost as both boys hung back, Hermione continued walking and lecturing not realising that Ron and harry were 5 metres behind her.

Ron rolled his eyes in Hermione's direction causing Harry to laugh and continued their earlier conversation as though Hermione had never even started talking 'It's a deal'
