Hermione sprinted to the room where they had been last night; it was 6:00 in the morning. She threw open the door and crashed straight into someone who had been standing in the way. "Ow" Hermione and the other person muttered in unison and Hermione sat up looking at who she'd just slammed into. It was a young woman with long golden hair and sparkling blue eyes.
"Good morning" the woman said with a grin on her face.
"Sorry" Hermione stuttered then looked around the room. Professors, Snape, McGonagall and Dumbledore were also there all looking at her seriously.
"Hermione what are you doing here at this hour in the morning" Professor McGonagall asked
Hermione just stood there, she was so confused, "I - err" Hermione stopped and recapped she was here to get the diary, and as she walked in she found that their was people in here. She shook her head "I- I left a book here last night and I came to get it" she decided to say, its not like anyone would know what the book was.
Then suddenly the doors flew open again and Harry walked in expecting to find Hermione alone. "Whoa," Harry said, as he looked at all the people,
"Potter, what are you doing here" Professor Snape snarled
"Well, you see last night Hermione said that she had left her book behind, and this morning I remembered that I had to get up for Quidditch practice and I got up a bit early, so I figured I'd come here and find Hermione and talk to her while I waited the rest of the team to wake up" Harry stuttered, it was sort of the truth.
Professor McGonagall shook her head, "Potter I have no idea what you said, but I'm amazed that you said it all in one breath" Then everyone in the room stopped. Running could be heard from the hall outside and for the third time the doors flew open, and Ron stood in the doorway so stunned that the door that he had just flung open flew back into his face.
"Ahh!" Ron cried as he hit the floor outside and the door flung open again "What in the name of Merlin?" He said stunned as he looked at the witches and wizards that currently filled the room that he'd expected only Harry and Hermione to be in.
"Good Morning Mr Weasley," Professor Dumbledore said trying to stifle a laugh as he watched the second youngest Weasley rub the bump that was fast appearing on his forehead.
"Ahh, hi, sorry, but I, well, practice, Harry, yeah" Ron stuttered awkwardly
"Oh right, see you later Hermione" he said and walked with Ron to the Quidditch Pitch
* * *
Hermione had grabbed the book and followed the boys out of the room then walked back up to the dormitory. She finished her homework then stared at the beautiful book, she opened it and slowly flicked through the pages, every now and then she came across a page that had been beautifully decorated with sketches along the margins of the pages.
"Hermione, you coming to breakfast" Lavender asked interrupting her thoughts.
"Hmm... oh-yeah!" Hermione replied quickly and she threw the book into her trunk and joined Lavender and Seamus who were both heading towards the great hall.
"Hey Hermione" Harry said, Ron looked up and nodded then continued eating.
"Hi, how was practice" she asked directing the question at Harry because she knew he had the courtesy to answer without his mouth full of food.
"Fine" He answered. "Your never going to believe who that girl was that you ran into this morning" He said his emerald eyes sparkling with mystery.
"Who?" She asked then her eyes widened as she turned to look at the girl. "Aliandra!"
"The one and only" He said then took a bite of toast. "Classes have been canceled today as well"
"What!" Hermione cried
"What's wrong with you two, first Harry, now you, can't you two just appreciate the fact that we don't have to go to potions today" Ron said rolling his eyes
"I'm not saying I'm depressed about it, I'm just saying theirs no reason for it" Harry said
"I'm with Harry, just because she's here is no reason to cancel all of today's classes" Hermione whispered so only Harry and Ron could hear. They both shrugged
"Its not like we can ask anyone about it anyway, we already tried Hagrid and he told us nothing, for once" Ron muttered "Anyway it does give us an extra day to read..."
Harry and Hermione grinned "Well I suppose that makes up for missing classes then" Hermione said and the two boys rolled their eyes. "So shall we go?" She asked.
"Yeah hold on" Ron said grabbing another two pieces of toast, and Harry followed suit grabbing another piece for himself. "What?" Ron asked when he noticed Hermione's look.
"Nothing" She said shaking her head laughing silently, "Let's go"
* * *
Harry and Ron waited in the Common Room while Hermione retrieved the book from her room. She was quick flying past Lavender without a word and then back down the stairs to join her two friends.
"I think we should use a different classroom this time, the professors have seemed to have decided they like that one" Harry suggested
"Mmm I noticed that" Ron laughed
Hermione nodded in agreement "Since there's no classes Flitwick's should be empty and if all else fails we can always go outside."
"Okay" Harry and Ron agreed
They made their way to the classroom and as soon as they confirmed it was empty they pulled out the book and placed it on the table. While Ron and Harry grabbed chairs Hermione flicked the gold edged pages to the entry that followed the one they had finished last time.

Dear Diary,
Ali your attack on Sirius was classic!! I could not believe my eyes when I saw Sirius wearing a PINK school uniform. That is something I will never forget!
Thank you Thank you, *Takes a bow*
*Laughs* Quidditch tomorrow!!
Yeah! First game of the season against Ravenclaw! We've got the better odds, its going to bucket down with rain tomorrow!
And that's a good thing, why?
Because, it's what we've been training in for the last month!
Oh I see, how could I, Lily Evans, have been so blind *hinting sarcasm*
*Smiles*
So anything interesting happen today
What? you mean besides Sirius's robes pink?
Mmhmm,
Well McGonagall did ask me if I was okay when I was working quietly.. that was slightly weird.
Ahh yes. The whole class had spent that whole lesson waiting for you to blow up the class or something; I think McGonagall was extremely freaked.
Oh that's why everyone was looking at me weirdly
What do you mean?
Well everyone kept shooting me looks that were saying 'I'm in on what your up to' and 'Lets have a big bang to finish the class'
That's a very precise description of what a look means.
Well actually people kept passing me notes with that sort of thing written on it. *shrugs*
Oh! *laughs*
I guess I've labeled myself as the troublemaker hey, soon I'll have all the teachers mobilizing against me if I don't play a prank soon. It actually sounds like fun. *Grins* Lily I'm going prank free. I'm going to strike some sort of deal with Sirius I'll just say something like "I need a break because the werewolves and unregistered animagi are giving me a hard time".
You, Prank Free?? *stares at Aliandra* Your not Serious?
No, I'm not Siriu...
Don't say it, please don't sink so low as to crack a 'Sirius Joke' not after you just told me your going prank free, Aliandra don't you see, I'm worrying about your sanity here!
Er-- You always worry about my sanity.
Yeah, but that's when you've done something normal, like a completely stupid prank, you can't claim your going prank free then crack a 'Sirius Joke' without me wondering whether someone else has taken over my best friends body.
*Laughs* Oh no! She's discovered my secret! Whatever am I going to do! No Lily, it will probably be more fun being prank free for a while, I mean the teachers are going to all have heart attacks if I become a polite little Lily Evans. Then again they might just believe your rubbing off on me...
*Shakes Head* This cannot turn out good.
*Laughs* We'll see, don't worry I doubt it will last long anyway,
Good.
Always, Aliandra & Lily

"You know, we should probably try and find out more about Aliandra, seeing that she's staying here and all" Ron suggested
"He's got a point you know" Harry said looking at Hermione. She looked down at the book and sighed.
"How long she staying for?" She asked looking at her best friends.
Harry and Ron grinned, "Long enough for us to keep reading now" Ron answered. Hermione smiled and turned the page...

Dear Diary.
I don't know what to do, I'd usually ask Ali but she's the one I'm unsure about, you see right now she's lying unconscious in the infirmary. It all happened really quickly...
It was the first Quidditch game of the season, and it was meant to be Gryffindor vs. Ravenclaw, but Ravenclaw pulled out as their seeker is sick so instead was a Gryffindor vs. Slytherin game. Gryffindor won of course, but this didn't suit the Slytherins, so right after James caught the snitch, McGill, the Slytherin team's captain threw his beaters club at Ali, it slammed straight into her ribs and she fell back hitting her head on her broom, I don't know how high up she was, just that right before she hit the ground Sirius caught her.
I over heard Madam Pomfrey telling Professor Dumbledore saying that if she'd hit the ground she probably would have been killed from loss of blood, something about her broken ribs would have punctured her lungs on impact... she's going to hate this but Sirius saved her life.
It's midnight and all I want to do it go and see Aliandra, but madam Pomfrey said I couldn't stay with her tonight. I might go see Professor Dumbledore tomorrow and see if I can stay in there.
Love always
Lily

"Hurry up and turn the page Hermione" Ron said
"I can't its stuck and I don't want to rip it," She said panicking
"Hermione, are you a witch or what" Harry said rolling his eyes then grinned as he looked at Ron who was shaking with silent laughter.
"Oh, right, sorry" and after muttering a few words the next page and next entry was in front of them.

Dear Diary,
She's still hasn't woken up yet, I'm with her at the moment, she looks so peaceful when she's asleep.
Madam Pomfrey's worried about her, I'm not meant to know this but I was listening in when she was talking to Professor McGonagall, I've been listening in a lot lately, haven't I. Anyway Pomfrey said if she doesn't wake up soon, she wouldn't have anything that'll stop her internally bleeding. From what I know of medicine, I know that that's not a good thing.
Mind you from what I've seen around the school Madam Pomfrey's not the only one that's worried about Ali, all the teachers ask me if she's all right and tell me if I need anything just to ask.
Its also really quiet around Hogwarts at the moment. The Marauders have stopped all pranks for a while because James's mum, who was an auror, was killed by death eaters. Talking about death eaters, James's mum isn't the only one who's been killed recently, so many students are mourning for lost family members. It's really quite a sad atmosphere.
This is half the reason that the schools going through hell, the other is that all the teachers are edgy about everything. Yesterday Flitwick got attacked by death eaters in Hogsmeade, meaning that all Hogsmeade visits were canceled.
Akk, James just entered the room, he comes in a lot, I think he is longing to talk to her about his mum, I mean Ali does live with him, I suppose I kinda feel sorry for him, but don't get the wrong idea, he's still my enemy.
Oh, it's horrible; I would never wish this darkness upon my own children. Ali, please wake up I know somehow, some way you can make everything right. I mean, even the teachers seem to think this, even they know that the school needs pranks!
Please wake up.
Love always, Lily
