Act I Scene 5
//scene, Streets of Hogsmeade, next day, HERMIONE is waking up, HERMIONE walks the streets, peering into every young girl's face thinking it's Colette.//
(Song: excerpt from "Fantine's Death" From (A/N: I'm sorry guys) Les Miserables)
HERMIONE: //peering into YOUNG GIRL 1's face// Colette, it's turned so cold. //HERMIONE shivers as Y.G.1.'s MOTHER whacks HERMIONE with her purse and walks away with her daughter//
HERMIONE: //peering into YOUNG GIRL 2's face// Colette, it's past your bedtime. You've played the day away, and soon it will be night.. //Y.G.2. gives HERMIONE cold shoulder and evil eye as if to say "weirdo!" and walks away//
HERMIONE: //reaching after her// Come to me, Colette, the light is fading. Don't you see, the evening star appearing? Come to me, and rest against my shoulder. How fast the minutes fly away and every minute colder..//HERMIONE collapses in a heap, faint from her terrible cold that she had gotten from sleeping in the streets (A/N: and, oh have I mentioned this is during the winter?)//
HERMIONE://murmuring in unconsciousness// Hurry near, another day is dying. Don't you hear, winter wind blowing? There's a darkness, which comes without a warning, but I will sing you lullabies and wake you in the morning..
(end song)
//A GROUP OF PEOPLE see HERMIONE and carry her off to a mental institute, HERMIONE wakes up in the midst of their carrying and cries out "Colette! Someone help me save Colette!" Her cries are ignored and waved away as acts of insanity..//

Thank you. //those people go up and follow MCGONAGALL into the hall// Now, //as she gathers them into a group in the halls// you are the lucky Gryffindors that I have chosen to take on a field trip to the mental institution. //SEAMUS, RON, AND PARVATI burst into snickers//

Bad news, Go way! Call round Some day, In March, or May, I can't be bothered now! My bonds and shares, May fall downstairs! Who cares? Who cares!? I'm crazy and I can't be bothered now!

MCGONAGALL: Um, we're fine, thank you. //addressing students// okay everyone, take a look around!
//RON wanders over to HERMIONE's corner, HERMIONE reaches out for him and MENTAL INSTITUTION WORKERS grab her and pull her back. She tries again and again, and fights against MENTAL INSTITUTION WORKERS, BOB calls HAVERT (pronounced as "Hah-vair"), the policeman//
(Song: "Fantine's Arrest" from Les Miserables
HAVERT: Tell me quickly what's the story, Who saw what and why and where? Let him give a full description, let him answer to Havert! In this nest of crazy people, Let him speak who saw it all, Who laid hands on this good man here? What's the substance of this brawl?
BOB: Havert would you believe it? Ron was crossing from the hall, When this crazy girl attacked him, You can see she left a mark //shows invisible mark on RON's face//
HAVERT: She will answer for her actions, When you make a full report, You may rest assured, Mister, That she will answer to prison.
HERMIONE: I have a sis who sorely needs me, Please, Havert, she's but that high //indicates COLETTE's height// Holy cow! Is there no mercy? If I go to jail, she'll die!
HAVERT: I have heard such protestations everyday for twenty years, Let's have no more explanations, Save your breath and save your tears. Honest work, just reward, that's the way to please the law!
RON: A moment of your time Havert, I do believe this girls tale-
HAVERT: But Mister Victim-
RON: You have done your duty, let her be, She needs a doctor, not a jail.
HAVERT: But Mister Victim!
HERMIONE: Can it be!!??
RON: Where will you end? You and that sis without a friend. I've seen your face before. Show me some way to help you. How have you come to grief, in such a place as this?
HERMIONE: Ron, don't mock me now, I pray. It's hard enough I've lost my hair and teeth. The elf Foreman sent me away, And you were there, Yes it was I. I never did a wrong..
RON: Is it true what we've done?
HERMIONE: My sister's close to dying.
RON: To an innocent soul?
HERMIONE: If there's a God above-
RON: Had I only know then-
HERMIONE: He'd let me die instead. //bursts into tears and shivers and coughs//
(end song)
RON: Hermione! Wha-why-how..//they burst into a hug, HERMIONE pulls away quickly to cough and sneeze//
MCGONAGALL: Ronald Weasley! Come, our ride is waiting back to the castle.
RON: But, Professor, it's Hermi-
MCGONAGALL: No buts about it! Now, either get in the car, or face a week of detentions!
RON: //reluctantly// Alright..//turns back to HERMIONE// But I'll be back, Hermione, don't you worry. //HERMIONE sniffles and nods then coughs//
Act I Scene 8
//scene, half-stage Gryffindor Common room, Half stage Mental institute, CRAZY PEOPLE asleep, though CRAZY PERSON 5 (also known as HERBERT) is awake, looking at HERMIONE who is also awake. RON is awake with HARRY and GINNY and PARVATI who are all casually drifting away and waking back up on the sofas//
(Song: "In My Life", then leading into "A Heart Full of Love" both from Les Miserables)
"In My Life"
HERBERT: //lights down on common room, spotlight on Mental Institute// How strange, this feeling that my life's begun at last. This change, am I experiencing love at last? What's the matter with you, Herbert? Have you been too much on your own? So many things unclear, So many things, unknown. //stops in place and that half of stage freezes when spotlight goes on the other half, HARRY sings//
HARRY: In my life, There are so many questions and answers that somehow seem wrong. In my life, There are times when I catch in the sigh of a faraway song. And it sings, Of a world that I long to see, Out of reach, Just a whisper away, Waiting for me! //spot goes back on Mental institute, HARRY freezes, HERBERT unfreezes//
HERBERT: Does she know I'm alive, do I know if she's real? Does she see what I see, does she feel what I feel? In my life, I'm no longer ill, now the love of my life is so near, Find me now, find me here.
HERMIONE: //talking to an imaginary COLETTE// Dear Colette, you're such a lonely child. What about, the innkeepers kids? Believe me, were it within my power, I'd fill each passing hour. How quiet it must be, I can see, With only them for company.
HERBERT: //waking HERMIONE from her hallucinations// There's so little I know, that I'm longing to know, Of your sis who is somewhere away. There's so little you say of the life you have known, Why do you keep to yourself, Why're you always alone? So dark ,so dark and deep, the secrets, that you keep. //lights go on Common Room, HERBERT and HERMIONE freeze, HARRY unfreezes//
//DUMBLEDORE enters along with MINEVERA//
HARRY: In my life, I'm no longer a child, and I yearn for the truth I don't know, Of the years, years, ago.
DUMBLEDORE: //to HARRY//You will learn, //to HARRY and MINEVERA// Truth is given to by God to us all, In our time, In our turn. //RON gets up from couch//
RON: In my life, She has burst like the music of angels, The light of the sun. And my life, Seems to stop as if something is over and something has scarcely begun, //to MINEVERA// Professor, you're the one that had brought me there, Thanks to you, I am one with Merlin and Heaven is near! And I soar through a world that is new, that is free! //PARVATI has been listening closely, now gets up//
PAVARTI: Every word that he says is a dagger in me, In my life, There's been no one like him, anywhere, where he is. If he asked, I'd be his. //lights go up on Mental Institute, now both halves are lighted//
HERBERT, PAVARTI, and RON: In my life, There is someone who touches my life!
RON: Waiting near.
HERBERT and PAVARTI: Waiting here..
A Heart Full of Love
//RON and HERMIONE go to edge of their half of the stage, they put hands together as if they are on opposite sides of a mirror, and sing as if they're right next to each other//
RON: A heart full of love,
HERMIONE: A heart full of song,
HERBERT: //walking up to HERMIONE// I'm doing everything all wrong, Oh God, for shame, I do not even know her name. //steps to HERMIONE// Dear friend, won't you say, will, you tell?
HERMIONE: //still to RON// A heart full of love. No fear, no regret!
HERBERT: My name is Herbert Kretzmer!
HERMIONE: //notices HERBERT's there// Hermione!
HERBERT: 'Mione, I don't know what to say.
HERMIONE: Then make no sound.
HERBERT: I am lost.
PAVARTI: //walking to RON's side// I am found
RON: //to HERMIONE// A heart full of light.
PAVARTI and RON: //though both to different people, i.e. RON to HERMIONE, PAVARTI to RON// A night bright as day!
HERBERT: //to HERMIONE// And you must never go away! Hermione!
RON: This is a chain, we'll never break.
PAVARTI: Do I dream?
RON: I'm awake! A heart full of love.
PAVARTI: He was never mine to lose.
GINNY: //to HARRY// A heart full of you!
PAVARTI: //at same time as RON// Why, regret what cannot be?
RON: //at same time as PAVARTI// Just one look and then I knew.
GINNY: These are words Harry'll never say. Not to me.
HERBERT: From today.
GINNY: Not to me, not for me.
HERMIONE: Every day,
PAVARTI: His heart full of love..
GINNY and PAVARTI: //at same time as HERBERT// He will never feel this way.
HERBERT: //At same time as GINNY and PAVARTI// Not a dream after all
(end songs)
//end Act I with GINNY on her knees, staring at HARRY, who is in a sofa, pondering his past, PAVARTI has her hands on RON's arm and stares longingly at him, RON is at the edge of the border between Mental Institute and Common room. HERMIONE is asleep, shivering and coughing, HERBERT is standing over her, taking care of her//

Okay, this was petty long, sorry about that, it was mostly the insanity from the Insane Asylum (Mental Institute) Puh- leez do not bug me about Havert, if you have another name that will have the same length and rhyme accordingly, go ahead, include it in a pleasant review! I wanna make Seamus a little more than just a side character in this one. Whaddya think? Let me clear up everyone's wanting: Harry-Wants knowledge of his childhood and stuff.

There will be an advertisement of some unknown genius out there in the fanfic author world and I'll publicize him/her at the end of every chapter! Okay here's the first:
AerisGhost-He is a Final Fantasy 7 fan along with other things like Kingdom Hearts and Angel. He's already done with a fantastic Murder mystery. I'm not an extreme fan of his, but he's my friend and he goes to my school, so I'm putting him on here! Oh, he plays Feuilly in Les Mis.

HERMIONE: //talking to an imaginary COLETTE// Dear Colette, you're such a lonely child. What about, the innkeepers kids? Believe me, were it within my power, I'd fill each passing hour. How quiet it must be, I can see, With only them for company.
HERBERT: //waking HERMIONE from her hallucinations// There's so little I know, that I'm longing to know, Of your sis who is somewhere away. There's so little you say of the life you have known, Why do you keep to yourself, Why're you always alone? So dark ,so dark and deep, the secrets, that you keep. //lights go on Common Room, HERBERT and HERMIONE freeze, HARRY unfreezes//
//DUMBLEDORE enters along with MINEVERA//
HARRY: In my life, I'm no longer a child, and I yearn for the truth I don't know, Of the years, years, ago.
DUMBLEDORE: //to HARRY//You will learn, //to HARRY and MINEVERA// Truth is given to by God to us all, In our time, In our turn. //RON gets up from couch//
RON: In my life, She has burst like the music of angels, The light of the sun. And my life, Seems to stop as if something is over and something has scarcely begun, //to MINEVERA// Professor, you're the one that had brought me there, Thanks to you, I am one with Merlin and Heaven is near! And I soar through a world that is new, that is free! //PARVATI has been listening closely, now gets up//
PAVARTI: Every word that he says is a dagger in me, In my life, There's been no one like him, anywhere, where he is. If he asked, I'd be his. //lights go up on Mental Institute, now both halves are lighted//
HERBERT, PAVARTI, and RON: In my life, There is someone who touches my life!
RON: Waiting near.
HERBERT and PAVARTI: Waiting here..
A Heart Full of Love
//RON and HERMIONE go to edge of their half of the stage, they put hands together as if they are on opposite sides of a mirror, and sing as if they're right next to each other//
RON: A heart full of love,
HERMIONE: A heart full of song,
HERBERT: //walking up to HERMIONE// I'm doing everything all wrong, Oh God, for shame, I do not even know her name. //steps to HERMIONE// Dear friend, won't you say, will, you tell?
HERMIONE: //still to RON// A heart full of love. No fear, no regret!
HERBERT: My name is Herbert Kretzmer!
HERMIONE: //notices HERBERT's there// Hermione!
HERBERT: 'Mione, I don't know what to say.
HERMIONE: Then make no sound.
HERBERT: I am lost.
PAVARTI: //walking to RON's side// I am found
RON: //to HERMIONE// A heart full of light.
PAVARTI and RON: //though both to different people, i.e. RON to HERMIONE, PAVARTI to RON// A night bright as day!
HERBERT: //to HERMIONE// And you must never go away! Hermione!
RON: This is a chain, we'll never break.
PAVARTI: Do I dream?
RON: I'm awake! A heart full of love.
PAVARTI: He was never mine to lose.
GINNY: //to HARRY// A heart full of you!
PAVARTI: //at same time as RON// Why, regret what cannot be?
RON: //at same time as PAVARTI// Just one look and then I knew.
GINNY: These are words Harry'll never say. Not to me.
HERBERT: From today.
GINNY: Not to me, not for me.
HERMIONE: Every day,
PAVARTI: His heart full of love..
GINNY and PAVARTI: //at same time as HERBERT// He will never feel this way.
HERBERT: //At same time as GINNY and PAVARTI// Not a dream after all
(end songs)
//end Act I with GINNY on her knees, staring at HARRY, who is in a sofa, pondering his past, PAVARTI has her hands on RON's arm and stares longingly at him, RON is at the edge of the border between Mental Institute and Common room. HERMIONE is asleep, shivering and coughing, HERBERT is standing over her, taking care of her//

A/A: Hey! Whaddya think? I'm done with act one, going onto act two. Should I keep Herbert alive? Oh, and if you haven't figured out, Herbert Kretzmer is the Lyricist of Les Mis!! Okay, this was petty long, sorry about that, it was mostly the insanity from the Insane Asylum (Mental Institute) Puh- leez do not bug me about Havert, if you have another name that will have the same length and rhyme accordingly, go ahead, include it in a pleasant review! I wanna make Seamus a little more than just a side character in this one. Whaddya think? Let me clear up everyone's wanting: Harry-Wants knowledge of his childhood and stuff.
Ron-Wants to be with Hermione
Hermione-Wants Colette to be safe, and has slight feelings for Ron
Pavarti-Wants Ron
Ginny-Wants Harry to get his mind off the past to be with her/be with Harry
Oh, be ready for more surprises, like my sister's Poopity Poop-Poop, please don't think my sister's crazy, because she is only slightly insane, but aren't we all? I was thinking of putting more Lion King in it! How about Scar's "Be Prepared?! I'll think about it..I'm gonna add something! There will be an advertisement of some unknown genius out there in the fanfic author world and I'll publicize him/her at the end of every chapter! Okay here's the first:
AerisGhost-He is a Final Fantasy 7 fan along with other things like Kingdom Hearts and Angel. He's already done with a fantastic Murder mystery. I'm not an extreme fan of his, but he's my friend and he goes to my school, so I'm putting him on here! Oh, he plays Feuilly in Les Mis.
