Chapter 3: Enemies or Not.

Hermione woke up with a start. She was disoriented, because she wasn't sure where she was. Her eyes were slowly beginning to focus, then realised she was in her prefects room. She checked her muggle clock which was on her bedside table and saw that it was practically the middle of the night, it was only 1am, she had only had three hours of sleep.

She wondered why she had woken up so suddenly."It was that dream." she thought to herself. She couldn't remember exactly what happened in her dream, but she knew it had to be important.she remembered three things. A mark, more of a scar; on her arm, blood dripping slowly to the dirt, then there was the voice, the mystical voice, its stated that death is near, lost, no freedom, the last thing she remembered was the dark empty forest, dark trees slightly illuminated by the moonlight.

She tried to get back to sleep, her dream embedded in her mind. Hermione tossed and turned, this way and that, she stayed awake for at least half an hour. "This is pathetic, maybe I should read? Hmmm that might ease me of a bit! " She told herself.

She got out of bed, put on her slippers and walked out into the main common room. To her surprised the Slytherin door was slightly opened. Her curiosity got the better of her, so she decided to see what lies beyond the door, for no one except those who are in that house is allowed into each mini common room.

Before Hermione even reached the slightly open door, she heard sounds coming from the boy's bathroom. For the second time that night, curiosity got the better of her. She walked quietly to the boy's bathroom, to find that it was locked. She left her wand inside her room, so instead she knocked on the door three times to find no response, but a shuffling type of noise coming from the bathroom. She knocked once more and this time to her surprise the voice that came from the other side of the door belonged to no other than Draco Malfoy. (AN: no surprises there! =P)

"What do you want Pansy?! I told you before to leave me alone, I said I was fine!!!" Draco practically shouted, though not to loud, as this would wake the others up.

"Ummmm." Hermione was slightly confused, she wasn't sure what he meant by him being 'fine' "This is Hermione, not...not Pansy." she continued. "I couldn't sleep so I deci-"

Her sentence was interrupted by a loud scream coming from inside. Hermione was so shocked she stood there for a second then she finally opened the door.

The sight that lay before her made her gasp. Hermione stood in the doorway with both hands clasping over her mouth, tears were beginning to form in her amber eyes. She stood there not knowing what to do. After regaining her self control back she rushed to Draco's side. She kneeled down, tears were beginning to form in her eyes again.

"Malfoy?" she said in barely a whisper., "Malfoy.Malfoy.please, please don't leave please.." She begged, she stroked his arm.no response.

"Oh Malfoy what happened to you..?" Now she was definitely worried, terrified even, this time she let the tears flow.

Ron woke up, hearing the scream that came from outside, he jumped out of bed, and into the main common room.

He saw that the boy's bathroom lights were on, and he could hear someone was definitely crying in there. "Sounds like Hermione," he thought to himself. He quickened his pace and got to the frame of the door. He saw blood, lots of blood.it was pooling all around Draco, and he also found Hermione kneeling by his side, mourning.

"Bloody hell." was all that came out of his mouth.

"We have to do something Ron!" Hermione exclaimed without taking her eyes of the unconscious Draco Malfoy, "Look Ron do something it doesn't matter if he IS our enemy, he's still a person!" And with that Ron stormed out searching for help.

As he exited the common room into the hallway, some one; or something pulled him into the shadows.......
