Harry yawned and looked around. Serenity was gone, and the room was
filled with Gryffindor robes and food. On a table beside Harry sat a small
piece of parchment. He looked it over and smiled, putting it in his pocket
after changing. He quickly made his way down to the Great Hall and took a
seat at the Gryffindor table. He searched up and down the table for any
sign of Serenity, but couldn't find her. He shrugged and looked around the
hall. He frowned as his eyes fell on the Slytherin table, and there beside
Malfoy was Serenity. She smiled and stood, hugging Malfoy quickly before
sitting by Harry.
"Why were you over there?" He asked.
"I had to ask Draco something." She replied, putting a piece of parchment away. "Why do you ask?"
"Because. You remember what house Voldemort was in. Probably every Slytherin is going to become a Death Eater, and - " She stopped him.
"That isn't true Harry! Just because some of the wizards in Slytherin turned bad doesn't mean they all will!" He nodded and quickly apologized. Serenity smiled. "Ron and Hermione said Dumbledore wanted to talk to you yesterday. What did he say? Other then the bit about me being like my father."
"Nothing much." Harry shrugged and stood. "Hey I'm going to run up to the common room. I'll see you in class."
"Get my bag for me while you're up there, okay? It should be under the couch. Thanks!" She smiled and kissed his cheek before leaving the Great Hall as well. Harry smiled and went up to the common room. He laughed as he pulled a small pink bag from under the couch. It was covered in little rabbits and hearts. Inside were a few rolls of parchment, a quill, some ink, two books, and something else he couldn't quite make out seeing as it was underneath all the other stuff. He slung the bag over his shoulder, and grabbed his things.
Serenity sat in the grass beside Harry. Hagrid stood in front of them with a snake wrapped around his arm. It was six feet in length with silver and sky blue scales, and a small pair of light blue wings emerging on either side of it. She smiled and took notes on the creature. It was called an Amphiptere or Flying Serpent. This one had its wings clipped so it could not fly away. She bit the end of her quill and turned to Harry.
"Harry? He said something about an Occamy, right?" Harry shrugged.
"I think so. It was sort of like that 'cept the Occamy is longer and has two legs." He said. After class Harry, Ron, Hermione, and Serenity stayed behind. They went inside Hagrid's hut and sat down. While the others talked, Serenity asked to hold the serpent. Hagrid nodded and handed it over nearly jumping back in surprise as she started hissing. Then started mumbling about something though not loud enough for anyone to hear.
"Bye Hagrid!" The four called as they left Hagrid's hut. Harry turned and looked to Ron and Hermione. They were holding hands, constantly smiling at each other. Harry smiled and turned to Serenity. She was practically skipping and singing softly to herself while swinging her bag from side to side. He hesitated then took Serenity's hand in his own. She stopped singing and looked over to him with a soft smile. He smiled as she moved closer, pulling his hand around her and resting in his embrace.
The weeks to come brought Harry and Serenity closer despite the professors' attempts to keep them apart. In class the professors would often make the two sit as far from each other as possible. Serenity almost always found herself beside Draco. Finally winter break came. Only a few students stayed behind. Harry and Serenity being the two most obvious. Ron and Hermione stayed back as well. Draco, however, had gone home to meet with his father. He had invited Serenity to come along, but she refused.
Serenity walked down the halls with no real destination in mind. She felt different today. She didn't feel like herself, but she didn't feel sick either. With a sigh she turned and walked into an empty classroom, and conjured a couch to lie on. Harry entered the room a little while afterwards, putting the Marauders Map away as he entered. He smiled and sat down beside her. She sat so peacefully with her eyes shut, and a small smile on her lips. They were alone for the first time in weeks. Without a second thought Harry leaned forward and placed a soft kiss on her lips. Serenity opened her eyes and stared at him as he kissed her. Her eyes slowly seemed to dissolve into a deep red color, and thoughts flowed into her mind. A voice seemed to whisper to her.
What are you doing? Don't let him kiss you! It told her. Feelings of so much hatred flooded into her. Harry pulled away and looked at her. Her eyes were almost completely red, and an expression of loathing and fear on her face. Her hand reached forward and grabbed Harry around the neck, taking her wand in the other hand. She pulled away for a moment before gripping Harry's neck again. Harry stood against the wall and watched in utter confusion. She looked as if she were fighting, the red in her eyes dieing for a moment before returning again, her grip on his neck tightening and then loosening again, and she stood shaking violently throwing her wand to the ground and screaming her protests to an invisible attacker. Though Harry did nothing. He couldn't leave her like this, he couldn't fight her, but if she stopped fighting it then she would most likely kill him.
Professor McGonagall walked down a corridor to her office when she heard screams from behind her. She pointed her wand to the side and from it a small silvery ghost like bird flew away. Then she ran towards the screams.
Serenity glared at Harry, red eyes searching through emerald green. Her hand planted firmly on his neck, as both attempted to retrieve her wand and keep herself from it at the same time. Harry insisted that she fight it as he silently cursed Voldemort. There was no other explanation for it. Professor McGonagall threw the door open and shrieked in surprise.
"Stupefy! Petrificus Totalus! Rictusempra!" McGonagall yelled as she pointed her wand at Serenity. Serenity fell to the floor frozen with her arms at her side and laughing hysterically before falling unconscious.
"Why did you tickle her?" Harry asked dumbly as he knelt down beside Serenity.
"Get away from her Potter! Go to the Headmaster's office and wait there!" Harry did as she said, however reluctantly. He sat in Dumbledore's office petting Fawkes. A half an hour later Dumbledore and McGonagall entered the room.

I think I will leave I there. Hope you liked the chapter. If you didn't.Oh well.Feel free to flame.
Note - Mflower49, when I say flame I do not mean threat. As for your demands. . . . I have this to say. I am writing the story and if I don't want Draco and Serenity together there isn't a damn thing you can do about it. Currently I am deciding whom I want Serenity to be with, and I am taking the votes into consideration. If your next reviews have anything that sounds even remotely like a threat, be it a joke or otherwise, I will not post the next chapter until I damn well feel like it and that may be a while. Also because of your last demand I will not be putting Draco in the next two or three chapters. Perhaps longer. If he is put in the chapter he will be mentioned, but will not play a large role in what is happening. If you don't like that feel free to stop reading my fic at any time. This goes for all reviewers.
I apologize if I am being an ass right now. I am not in the greatest of moods. As you can probably tell.
Thank you.
Have a nice day.
