Thank you to those who reviewed, as a note the character's personalities may seem a bit OC , that's only because they have grown and developed through their experiences ,but that will be covered. Anyways on with the story...

( NEW UPDATE) I know Order of the Phoenix came out, I wrote this before that so please bear with that and assume nothing ever happened. Ill update it so it is correct !!

6th Year Hogwarts...

Hermione stepped onto platform 9 3/4 with nothing but high hopes. . She scanned the platform for the flaming red hair of the Weasly's. BOOOM!!!,

A loud explosion ringed through the platform, followed by, now red with fury as she continued to scold Fred and George. Fred and George looked at each other mischeiviously when George spoke up.

"But mum, I'm not George I'm Fred. Jeez woman and you call us our mum..", George said while shaking his head.

WHACK!! Molly lightly whacked George on the shoulder with her purse,"Fred's left eye brow is bushier than the other, and he is a bit more in shape", Molly said matter of factly, and everyone shut up.

Ginny was snickering to the side while, Harry and Ron backed away slowly from the scene. Hermione hadn't seen them all summer since the death of Sirius. An uneasy acceptance was present but they tried to make the most of it/ Her glance went from Ron and then to Harry and her mouth dropped. Ron had chopped through his hair, It also seemed that he gained a bit more weight on his lanky form.

Harry on the other hand, she couldn't even describe the change, his hair was very much in need of a proper hair cut but still ruffled and unkempt. On top of that he was not as scrawny, it actually looked as if he ate better over the summer holidays.

Ron spotted Hermione first and ran to her. He started tickling her; in the meantime Harry stalked over to the side and stated tickling her too. Hermione was thrashing about and laughing at the same time, this only seemed to make them do it even more.

"Hermy, Hermy, Hermy, Hermy", Ron said teasingly "Ha,ha, ha, don't, ha ha ha call me th... STOP!! hahahahaha", she nearly screamed with laughter. "You know you love it HERMY!", now Harry joined in. "hahahaha IM GOING TO HEX YOU IN...HAHA Next week. HAHA ONLY GRAWP CAN CALL ME THAT HAHA"

All of Hermione's thrashing caused them to all fall over. They layed in crumpled heap laughing uncontrollably, oblivious to all the people around them staring. It was Hermione who noticed first that they weren't in a very complimenting position on the floor. Suddenly there was a flash. Before they could even collect themselves there was Draco Malfoy hovering over them with a camera.

"My, My, My, Granger couldn't wait to get on top of weasel and wonder boy, and you being a prefect no less" Draco drawled, dangling the picture above her head, "My my what would Umbridge Say, Hmm Potter I think Ministry will love this...." Before he could finish Harry tried to lunge for Draco when Hermione pulled him back.

"Don't you have to bounce some where ferret face?," Hermione asked smugly

"Sorry, I don't believe mudbloods were acknowledged to speak thank you",

It was now Hermione's turn to be mad.

Hermione's POV

I'm going to kill him, hex him oh my gosh Im, going to.. No Herm, you have more control and class than that. I STILL WANT TO GET HIM, no your a prefect remember Herm, you want to be head girl someday right? UGH WHY ARE YOU ALWAYS SO RIGHT!! okay..

End of POV


Hermione straightened up to her full height of 5' 3 and threw Draco a condescending glance. "And I don't believe that spoiled, inbred ferrets whose fathers are in Azkaban were acknowledged to respond, I'm sorry Ferret Boy but we have other more important engagements, have a nice day."

She turned on her heel and took Harry and Ron firmly by the arm to the train,

"Lets go, Oh ya Malfoy by the way..," she flipped her hair and turned to face him, "About that picture, keep it, its as close to humanity than you could ever hope to have." She walked with them to the train with extra bounce to her step.

Draco Malfoy, stood there completely enfuriated and at the same time dumbfounded.

Draco's POV

NOBODY DOES THAT TO ME!! she just did stupid, SHUT UP. Im going to get her, she will NOT get away with this. Im not an inbred, How dare she insult my father, she will pay HA watch Herimone Granger just Watch I will put you in your place. Ugh she's disgusting! End of Pov

They found their usual compartment occupied by two first years but they didn't really mind it. Hermione took the seat by the window and just sighed. She couldn't believe that she actually pulled that off. Sure she had slapped him but this time she could tell she hit it home.

A wide grin creeped its way on her face, she just made him feel like an idiot. Harry and Ron just stared at her for nearly 10 minutes before even saying anything. "What's wrong?"She questioned noting the silence.

Looking between Harry and Ron they just sat there. A weird little grin was starting to creep onto Harry's face. "There's nothing wrong Herm, that was just..." "ABSOLUTELY BLOODY AMAZING!" Ron interjected. Ron gave her a hearty pat on the back, "That's one to put in the Hall of Fame along with such moments as "The Slap" and "The Amazing Bouncing Ferret'",

With that the whole compartment burst with laughter. The first years scuttled out of the compartment, convinced that the three 6th Years were mad.

Ron now looked at Hermione curiously, he had noticed a slight change in her when he saw her, being one of her best friend's he noticed certain things as did Harry. "Herm, umm did you gain a little weight over the summer?" he just blurted out. Taken aback Hermione didn't know what quite how to respond.

She had to get all new clothes and robes for this year since last years clothes were much to small for her now. She didn't really pay too much attention to it until now however. Then it clicked. Her father wouldn't let her out of the house without practically 4 layers of clothing. While her mother kept feeding her vegetables all summer.

"Hermione, take off your robe so we can have a look at you" Said Harry Hesitating a little, Hermione took off her black robes. That day she had worn a pair of regular muggle jeans with a burgundy shirt, it was nothing spectacular. As soon as the robe came down both of their jaws slightly dropped. "Well, what is it?!", she stood there fidgiting waiting for their answer. "Its just that??, maybe you should keep your robe on", Ron again blurted.He seemed very confused and addled. "Don't worry about Ron, its just that your not as slender and skinny I mean you just look different, more different. you were last year,its okay no problem , hes just not used to it thats all", explained Harry.

Hermione just stood there looking between them not sure whether to be flattered or insulted until it occured to her. "ARE YOU CALLING ME FAT RONALD BILIUS WEASLY AND HARRY JAMES POTTER??!!", she said, her face was now pink,"WELL?" Now she was known for having a very bad temper. They were afraid to say the wrong thing.. "Uh uh no not at all we were just saying you look different, thats all, uh uh look don't worry just Uh.."Ron was now stuttering trying to explain himself.

Hermione had enough of it, she gathered her robes and stormed out of the room. On her way out she nearly knocked the candy cart over. She stormed over to the next compartment over and took a seat fuming in her anger.

"What are you doing here mudblood", a lazy drawl asked from the otherside of the room.

"Well isn't today my lucky day", she thought to herself. She just ignored him. "This is disgusting, you don't deserve to have the privilege of breathing the same air as me, no less the same room, ugh" his face wrinkled into a slight sneer."Let me guess, wonder boy broke up with you and you finally realized how worthless you are to society and weasel?. At this Hermione turned around to face him.

"Okay Malfoy, tell me this if mudbloods are so inferior and worthless, why is it that my marks are outstandingly higher than your own, and you are a pureblood?", Her face was calm and tranquil not a single sign of anger. That made 2 for Hermione none for Draco, she was on a roll.

"You know what they say about overachievers Granger? They try to overcompensate for the fields they lack in?", It was now his turn to belittle her, he walked over to her and became level with her ear, in a very low calm voice, "Unlike, you mudblood, I don't need to prove myself to anybody, frankly I could give a shit less what filth like you do, But I will warn you, cross me again you little Mudblood bitch and I will not hesitate to show you your true place in my world." Draco walked away silently out of the compartment feeling very good about himself.

Silently Hermione sat there for the duration of the train ride, with silent tears. First she was fat now she was worthless.

However, she knew better than that , she wouldn't let that inbred ferret get to her, too late he already did. Thoughts of how many ways she could impale him on a stake drifted through her mind. This was going to be a LONG YEAR.

Well here you go the next chap will be coming up soon =) Review =0 =) =)
