Introduction:

I wrote this story as part of a challenge: a very unusual and, it turned out, extremely difficult challenge. The concept is simple enough: Use the following 10 sentences, in the order they are given, in a story set within Harry's sixth year.

It was supposed to be short… you've probably noticed it isn't. I rather like the concept actually and I enjoy it when my characters start rebelling against the sentences because they're out of character; it wasn't supposed to turn out like that but it did. I hope you enjoy it.

Oh by the way; RL/SB hinted at as is RW/HG and both HP/GW and DM/GW... its all very complicated *grins* and of course *cough* review.

The Sentences

"Professor Lupin?" asked an astonished Hermione. "What are YOU doing here?"

"What if the person wants to kill you?" Ron replied.

"Auror?" questioned Hermione. "I thought he was only a professor?"

"So what do we do now?" Asked Harry in a timid voice.

"Yes, I'm fine," she assured him. "Just a little jumpy I guess."

"Hey guys, I'm going to the bathroom. Okay?"

"I don't hate you, I'm just extremely jealous of you." Draco screamed.

" Really, you want to be my friend?" Draco asked awestruck.

"I could ask you the same question, Remus."

"You have the effrontery to try and date Ginny! I shall see you suffer a thousand deaths for this!"
