*Hermione head a startled cry before she blacked out. *

 

            *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

            Draco ran down the hall to her compartment to see Flints back as he advanced on Hermione. He could tell she was on the floor, but he couldn't see her. Suddenly, a streak of orange flew out of the luggage compartment overhead and landed on Flint's head. He cried out in pain as the orange fur ball scratched at his face hissing like a bat out of hell. Crookshanks leapt back up to the shelf when he saw that Draco had come. Totally forgetting about his wand Draco grabbed Flint, and then POW! Punched him square on his nose, knocking him out. He pushed the ugly boy underneath the seat, hiding him from view. * I'll deal with you later * Then he ran over and sat down next to Hermione's limp form, trying to wake her up. She had been crying. * Dear God I hope I got here before he did anything! * He thought. The compartment door opened. He turned around    to only have a fist meet his face.  Now it was his turn to black out.

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Harry and Ron had just finished putting Hermione's huge trunk full of reading books in the luggage car and were heading towards compartment 73 when they heard Hermione scream. They rushed down the hallway to see Malfoy   punch some one right in front of the compartment. Pure rage took over Harry's body as he sprinted down the hallway. When he got to the door he saw Malfoy down next to an unconscious Hermione shaking her! Before he knew what he was doing, he punched Malfoy, knocking him out.

"Hermione!" Ron shrieked as he reached the door to see what was going on. " Malfoy hit her!" Harry bellowed.  Ron's face went fuchsia with undeniable, pure, hate for the unconscious blond boy on the floor. Harry tried to remember the spell to wake up the limp girl next to him. Ron, on the other hand, was about to kick Malfoy, but stopped when he heard a low moan coming from underneath the seat to his left. Suddenly Crookshanks left his safe place and jumped down on to the seat emitting fierce growl.

"I didn't even know Cats made sounds like that, what's with Crookshanks?" Harry asked as he took out his wand. 

  " Something's under this seat!" Ron replied as bent down to look. Slowly he dragged out a bleeding, moaning Marcus Flint " What the bloody h-" he said to himself but was cut off as Harry murmured a few magical words and nothing happened.

" Crud!" we need to get them to a nurse so sh- what the he|| is Flint doing here. Harry listened to Ron's explanation   of how he found flint when one of the attendants came in and saw the seen.

" Good Merlin!  What happened?! You boys are in deep trouble," she gravely said.

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

          Hermione woke up. * What am I doing here? How'd I get to my room, I don't remember the sorting ceremony, or the feast! * She looked to her left.  Lying on another cot, Malfoy was looking back at her!  

" What are you doing im my room?!" she shrieked.

          " Your room? Last time I checked this was the hospital wing." He sneered  weakly and then  moaned painfully. * Hospital wing?! What am I doing here?!* Then it all came back. The train. Flint. Blacking out.

          " What happened?" she thought out loud. With an annoyed sigh  Draco explained what happened

          " – and that's all I remember. Then I woke up here. Now  that I answered your questions, will you please shut up , I need rest, Mudblood." He added.

          " One more question, Malfoy, why did you save me?"

          He thought about this awhile before replying " I wanted to save Flint the humiliation of being with you, the Gryffindor Mudblood Know-it-all." He smirked and then turned away from Hermione, to face the wall .

Hermione knew he was lying, he sucked at it!  Well, ya, it would have passed the test for one of the teachers or anyone else for that matter, but remember, she was ' smarter than the average bear' . She  pondered why he saved her a little bit longer, before she to drifted off to a peaceful slumber.

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

          Draco to, was wondering why he save the little Mudblood.  He  had a rep to maintain, and saving a Gryffindor wouldn't settle well with the rest of the Slytherins, or the Gryffindors for that matter.  Then he thought of something. , Where's Flint? Humph.. he must have gotten out of here earlier. God, I hope he gets expelled! How dare he go up to Hermione and- wait a minute I just called her Hermione! And what's it matter to me if Flint got to her!*  I mean , it wasn't like he like her,…. Was it?……….
