Practical Defence against the Dark Arts

Hermione walked down the stairs, holding Evie.
"Don't worry," she told heself "Just get up there show them some moves and then that's it"
She took deep breaths as she opened the large doors that led to the Great Hall. Everyone stopped talking and watched Hermione as she handed Evie to Angel and then walked onto the stage that was set out where the teachers table would normally be.
"Good Evening everyone, hope you are all feeling well." Prof. Thomas looked around, no one would dare make a noise. "Well now, this as you all know is Miss Granger, she has kindly agreed to run this class for you, so you know how to defend yourself if the worst happens." The students looked at each other and most couldn't believe that Hermione could hurt someone. "Well here she is, please begin"
"Thank you Proffesor," She twiddled her fingers and looked around, she saw Ginny at the front giving her a thumbs up. "Right, well I think I should start with the basics, like um, Angel? Could I have your help please?"
Angel handed Evie to Ron who looked scared and he strided onto the stage. Some Slytherin girls sighed as they saw him.
"Angel could you please walk behind me and I'll demonstrate how to flip and stake."
"Your not really gonna?" he did a stake movement.
"No, I ain't stupid" She said.
"Ok, here's what you do, you need to always be aware of what's going on around you. Because with vampires, they can blend in, they can be anyone."
Angel wrapped his arm around Hermione's neck and waited for her to flip him. "This is a good move if your attacker has you by the neck, which if he's a vampire will always do"
Hermione yanked his arm with such force that he came whirling round and down, Hermione quickly grabbed a stake from up her sleeve and pretended to stake him.
There were gasps from the students and Harry, Ron and Ginny were cheering.
Hermione helped Angel up, "are you ok?" she asked.
"I'll live" he said and smiled.
"Now as you all can see, this is a stake" she held up the shaft of wood, "now I know that not everyone is gonna have one on them at all times, but I just want to show that this is what kills all vampires, and this is where you stake them"
She turned round, expecting to see Angel, what she saw was far worse.
Theo.
" I think you've got a little problem there," His voice sounded like someone walking up a gravel pathway, " Stakes don't work on all vampires" He thrusted the stake into his chest and took it out again.
"See?" he dropped the stake, the hall was so silent the clatter rang through the hall.
"RUN!" Angel shouted, every student ran towards the doors at the other end of the hall, they wouldn't open.
"It's no good! They won't budge!" Ron Shouted
"Nice little trick I picked up from that American Red-head" he smirked, "Works a treat"
Hermione flipped and kicked him again.
"Look, it's no use slayer, I don't want to fight you" Hermione looks shocked and Theo understands "I know it's so tragic, look, the reason why I came here is because I wanted to give you a present"
He hands her an envolope, she opens it and there is a word written on the paper.
"Hollower?"
"Catch ya later slayer!" Theo jumped from the great hall.
"Git" she turned round and faced the hall, "don't worry, everythings fine"
"Um, Hermione?" Ron said pointing behind her.
"What?" she turned, "Oh my -!"
A large demon had just burst out the floor and was looking around, Hermione dived off the stage and landed on Prof Thomas.
"What is it?" she asked
"Let me see that paper?" he grabbed it, "Oh gosh, it's the Hollower"
"Whats that?"
"It sucks the souls out of vampires"
"Well that's good isn't it?"
"Not if you're-"
"ANGEL!!"
Hermione screeched and ran for the creature. It picked up Angel and pinned it to the floor. He stuck one of its tentacles into him and started to suck.
"NO!!" she tried again but it was no use. Angel led limp on the floor and the creature turned and sniffed around, after finding no more vampires he left.
"That was a present?" Ron asked Harry
"Theo, he's trying to harm Hermione"
"oh, well I think it did the trick"
Hermione knelt next to Angel and slightly lifted his head.
"He's Dead"
