Disclaimer: I own next to nothing! Only the plot is mine! So sad, ain't it?
Draco was wearing the ferret pendant, which she could only guess was the match to hers & Harry's. Hermione already knew that they had those pendants for a reason, they were most likely the matching animals in the prophecy. Why they were animals though, she couldn't guess. The fact that Malfoy was a ferret, it nearly made Hermione laugh. Who could forget the time last year when Professor Moody/Crouch turned him into a ferret in the Great Hall?
"Where did you get that pendant, Malfoy?" Hermione asked coolly, but she really hoped she wouldn't have to "unite" with Malfoy, even if it did mean saving people.
"Wouldn't you like to know, Mudblood?" Malfoy drawled. "Well, just because I'm so nice, I'll tell you. Some anonymous person sent it to me earlier this summer, probably as some kind of stupid joke. Ha! I'll get them."
Oh great, Hermione thought to herself. That anonymous person was most likely Merlin's ghost or something, getting him to wear the pendant.
"If you hate it so much, why do you wear it then, idiot?" Harry asked.
"The retarded person who sent it to me said that I had to wear it, they'd find out if I didn't. I highly doubt they could do anything to me, but I still wear it in case the Dark Lord is the one who sent it to me," Malfoy answered.
Ha! Yeah right, Hermione thought. Like the evilest wizard in the world would send the son of a Death Eater a ferret pendant. Just the thought of it made her want to laugh.
"Well I've got to be going. I have more important things to do than stand around chatting with the Mudblood & her nasty friends," Malfoy said with a sneer, & strode off.
With that, the Weasleys, Harry, & Hermione walked into Gringotts, the large wizarding bank. Everyone walked their separate ways, so they could get out to get their new school things faster. Hermione stepped up to the tall desk, which an extremely ugly goblin was sitting behind.
"May I help you?" The goblin said with his raspy voice.
"Yes, I would like to access my vault please. It's number 548," Hermione answered politely as ever.
"Key please," the goblin said, almost as rude as Hermione had been polite.
She slid the key to her vault across the grubby desk & let the ugly creature examine it.
"Right this way please," the goblin said, and now Hermione could see his nametag when he got out from behind the desk. His name was Gratchclaw.
Weird name, she thought to herself as he led her to a cart.
"Hold on tight, you know the procedure," Gratchclaw said evilly.
After much rocking & clacking down the rickety cart path, the cart screeched to a halt.
"Vault 548. Come on, come on, out you get," said Gratchclaw.
Hermione gathered several gold Galleons, silver Sickles, & bronze Knuts into her small purse & got back into the old cart. The sickening ride back seemed longer, but it always does after a while, too much of anything can make you sick. She met up with Mrs. Weasley & the others as they waited a couple of minutes for Harry to return so they could get started on their shopping.
A/N: I would give replies to reviewers, IF THERE WERE ANY! Err. Sorry the chapters are still a little short, I will only improve if I get a reviewer.
