A/N: Thanks again for the reviews. I'm writing fast since I'm still on vacation. I have nothing to do. I had fun reading fan fiction so I decided to write one on my own. I only have this week and next week free so I want to finish it all before classes. But we'll see if I can finish what I planned.

Chapter11: Weekends
Hermione woke up with the sun shining on her face. It was a nice day to go out but then she can't. She had to be stuck with Malfoy in the Prefects common room. The week flew by quickly. The guests were good at hiding. They didn't distract the students in any way. They didn't have a clue that they were there.
She never even had another chance of chatting with Arabelle. Sirius and Lupin were in hiding so she never got a chance to talk to them. 'I suppose Dumbledore hid them since they were familiar face. They could attract attention.'
When she finished preparing, she headed to the Great Hall. She expected a long day with Malfoy. She got her bag and began walking towards the great hall. 'Blast! I have to work with him this time. He'll have to listen to me. If he doesn't, I'll have to use my secret weapon. Hehehe.' She wasn't looking were she was going and suddenly bumped someone. "Sorry." She said as she picked her bag up.
"Hermione, what are you doing this early in the morning?"
It was Arabelle. She felt embarrassed at bumping her. "I'm terribly sorry. I was thinking of something. I'm sorry."
"It's alright. But answer my question."
"I wanted an early start. I have to finish my assignments today so I can prepare a weekly report for tomorrow."
"Weekly report? On what?"
"Report on what happens in Hogwarts especially when it comes to prefect things."
"I thought Dumbledore knows everything that goes around even without the help of a weekly report. Why would you have to make one then?"
"It was some sort of punishment I guess. I mean, I have to do it with someone I dislike." She was careful to use unsuitable words.
"Oh. Why are you so glum? I thought the report was tomorrow."
"Yeah but Professor McGonagall wanted to improve our relationship."
"I see. So who's your partner in the report?"
Hermione winced at the words partner and winced some more when she said, "Malfoy."
'Poor girl. She's stuck with a guy. Maybe I could do something for her.' "Would Professor McGonagall allow you to skip this day if someone from say a guest needed to talk to you?"
"I think that she'll see through that lie though."
"What if I needed to talk to you every Saturday, I mean I need to know what goes on in Hogwarts and who better to ask than someone who's going to report the conditions in Hogwarts the next day? You've been my guide before and I trust you. That would be my reason. Do you think she'll buy it?"
"I don't know."
"I'll talk to her later. You go on eat your breakfast and meet me at the door of Dumbledore's office. I'll tell you what happened."
"Thank you." Hermione smiled at Arabelle as she watched her go to the office of McGonagall.
Hermione was so glad that Arabelle is trying to help her get away from Malfoy at least this Saturday. She reached the hall and ate her breakfast. When she finished, she did what Arabelle said and went directly to Dumbledore's office. She stopped when she heard someone at her back. She turned and saw that it was Malfoy.
"Why if it isn't mudblood rushing to the Prefect common room so that she can spend her day at something worth her time. I didn't know that you wanted to stare at me that much? I must say, I admit that you got taste but you should know that you have no chance with me. I don't date mudbloods."
"Fuck off! Who said anything about going to the common room?"
"And where are you going? You're not leaving me with the task of making a report are you? Cause if you are then you can forget the hell about it. I'm not going to waste my time in detention on something you didn't do."
"Just bug of!"
"Fine but when McGonagall comes to check up on us and you're not there, then that would be your problem."
Hermione glared at him and left rushing to her original destination. She saw Arabelle waiting and saw that she was smiling. She felt herself smiling as well but she had to make sure first. "What happened?"
"McGonagall wasn't able to resist." She smiled as she took her arms and dragged her to a room that Hermione didn't know of. She said something beneath her breath. "You're coming with me."
"Where are you taking me?"
"This is my room for the time being." She led her inside a room very similar to a Prefect's bedroom.
"Wow! It looks like my room."
"What do you expect?" She smiled at her. "So, what assignments are you stuck on?"
"Actually I finished those that are to be submitted for the next 2 weeks."
"And here I thought, I'd be helping you with them."
"I want to thank you again for doing this."
"It's nothing. I got bored."
"Why? Why are you doing this for me?"
"Honestly, I see myself in you." That was partly true. Arabelle was a nerd like Hermione when she was still studying. The main reason though was that she and Sirius talked and agreed that the Harry and his friends needed to be prepared. Hermione was their tool. 'She can learn fast and I know that whenever Harry is on a trial, Hermione or Ron was always at his side. There's a 50-50 chance of her using it to protect herself and Harry.' That was what Sirius said.
"Really?" She couldn't believe what's she's saying.
"Yeah. I've been engrossed with my studies as well. It's a good thing too. Without it then I wouldn't be what I am today."
"I see."
"So what are you doing in you free time?"
"I never had a free time since the detention."
"So what do you and your friends do that gets you in trouble?" She could see her hesitate. "You can trust me. I won't tell."
"Well, we've been reading books in the restricted area."
"How did you manage that?"
"Professor Dumbledore gave us a pass that allows us to use the books. He even gave us a key to a room so that no one would see us reading them."
"It's not really against the rules when Dumbledore allowed you is it?"
"I guess not."
"Do you practice these spells? I mean if I was given the chance before, I would."
"Actually, we did. But we only practiced spells that are harmless. Something for protection."
"I see. Did you have any luck with such spells? I mean, books aren't enough to cast these kinds of spells. One should learn the proper way of actually saying it."
"We were successful at some, while the others were failures."
"I can help you there if you want."
"Really?" Hermione now really wanted to believe that this was true.
"Hermione, if you try these spells and you do it wrong, it may end up with disaster. I just want you to be safe. List down the spells you want to learn and if I deem that they are harmless, I will teach you. There will be times though that I wouldn't be able to help you out. I don't know all of the spells you know." She winked at her young apprentice.
