Authors Note: Here is the next chapter of Harry Potter and the Girl with the Crescent Scar

CHAPTER 3:

As Harry and Dominique left Dumbledore's office, Harry remained speechless.

"Oh just say something already," she cried. "I hate the silence!"

"Um, uh..." Harry couldn't think of what to say. He kept playing her story inside his head. "I just cant believe you went through all that, your parents and best friend getting killed, I mean, I-""WELL I DID GO THROUGH IT!" she screamed. "And I don't want to remember it again! So just shove it Harry!" Not wanting to cause a fight, Harry grew silent. When they reached the Gryffindor common room, they each mumbled a good night and went to bed.

THE NEXT DAY:

"Now class," shouted McGonagall through the rucuss. "Next year as you all know, you shall be taking your N.E.W.T.S. And I don't want to have the displeasure of failing you, so this year will be in preparation for your test next year."

"Can you believe it Harry?" whispered Hermione. We are almost done with school and are going to take the most horrendous test of our lives?"

"Hermione, please leave me alone."

"Oh, is it that girl again? Domin-who-sits?"

"Its Dominique and its nothing, I just don't want to take or even THINK about taking that test and I am also mad that we are amost finished with school." That wasn't entirely true. Harry was still going over the nights events. The night befor ehe had had nightmares of Dominique's story and he heard the screams, the pain, and the fright she had expierienced. He had sat next to Dominique at breakfast but she didn't breath a word. She just sat there, didn't even touch her food. Her eyes had been clouded and puffy, as if she were in a trance.

"Now," began McGonagall once more. "Today we are going to leanr how to change flies into rocks, a very usefull spell when coming upon a tight spot, just swish three times and say this incantation: Slateimous! Now, begin."

"WAIT! I know this spell already!"

"Really?"

"Yeah, practically the first dueling spell I learned, can I show everyone how to do it?"

"Hmmm, well, alright, but make it brief."

Dominique stepped up to the front of the room, and summoned a pillow. During her third swish of the spell, she said the incantation. "SLATEIMOUS!" Instantaneously, the pillow grew stiff, and gray, she threw it at the ground and succeeeded in making a hole in the floor. McGonagall clapped with the rest of the class as Dominique took a bow. Hermione just sniffed with what Harry thought was with jealousy.
As usual, Hermione got it on the first try, where as Ron only managed to make his fly into a ball of fire, which ended up burning his desk. Harry didn't even try, his eyes kept wandering across the floor to Dominique. Who, at the moment was sitting next to Parvati and Padma Patil. Both were twins, and all three of them were in deep conversation. Dominuqes eyes met Harrys briefly before turning back to her work, Harry followd suit, he looked over his fly which seemed to be tapping his foot impatiently.

Harry finally managed to turn his fly into stone when the bell rang. He grabbed his things and rushed to the door hoping to meet Dominique. But as he passed through the door, he saw Dominique talking to the cruelest boy in school, Draco Malfoy. As Harry drew nearer to them, Malfoy looked up and said: "Hey Potter! Don't expect to have a easy year after what you did to my father!" Harry looked into Dominique's deep blue eyes and she turned away. Harry could tell Malfoy lked her by the way he looked at her and the way he talked to her. A moment later he was walking with his arm over her shoulder and in deep conversation. Dominique looked over her shoulder and mouthed "Sorry." And as she turned her head back, her long mahogany colored hair flipped as if to wave good bye. Harry feeling dejected, dragged his feet alone to Care of Magical Creatures.
