Rayne's POV

Rayne woke up late, like she usually does, and stretched her legs and arms. She turned over to give her boyfriend Michael a morning kiss, but found that he was gone. 'Git must've went to breakfast without me.' She dragged herself over to the bathroom like she always did, and looked in the mirror to survey the damage of the night before. What she saw made her scream.

"WHAT IN BLOODY HELL!" she yelled, and three girls that she didn't know ran into the bathroom. Parvati, Lavender, and Ginny were all standing in the doorway, looking concerned.

"What's wrong with you, Hermione? I've never heard you cuss before!" Ginny exclaimed.

'Hermione? Someone could get beat up with a name like that.' "What is going on here? Why am I so different? And who the bloody hell are you guys?!"

The three exchanged glances, and finally Lavender spoke. "Hermione, I think you should go back to bed. Maybe some sleep will put you back on track."

"Yeah, I guess so.." Rayne said skeptically. "Sorry for the scare.."

The girls all walked away, leaving Rayne alone in the bathroom, still gaping at her reflection. What had happened to her hair? This hair was all bushy and unmanageable. She had no piercings either! 'Dumbledore...yes, Dumbledore'll know what to do...'

"So let me get this straight, some little girl tried to act smart and drank a potion that she KNEW wasn't made right, and I had to switch bodies with her? How long will I be like this?!" she fumed.

"A day, a month, maybe even over a year. I'm not entirely sure, you'll have to manage until we can either find a remedy, or the potion wears off. Until then, you must live like Hermione Granger did, while she lives like you did," Dumbledore said.

"Fine, whatever. I'm going back to bed." She stormed back to her dormitory and opened up the closet. "Merlin, it's worse than I thought it would be," she said, scanning through the assortment of plain clothes that looked like they were bought from a baby gap. "And why's there so much pink? I hope this doesn't last long," she sighed, and walked to the bathroom to get ready.

After she got out of the shower, she opened up all of the drawers to Hermione's vanity counter, only to find nothing but some ribbon, a comb, and a bottle of lip gloss. "I swear, this girl needs a major makeover." Her eyes widened, and she smirked mischievously. "Maybe I could help with that...," she grinned, and ran over to the next dormitory.

After beating on the door for what seemed like an hour, she decided no one was inside. She tried the doorknob, and found that it was open. "Well, she won't notice if a little makeup is missing," she muttered, grinning again. Rayne grabbed the girl's black eyeliner, deep green eye shadow, and mascara. "This should do until I buy some more at Hogsmeade."

When she got back, she had 'fixed' some of Hermione's clothes, taking a pair of jeans and ripping then in a few places. She put on a white wife beater, then did her makeup next. After she declared herself 'good enough for public', she left to meet with the rest of the students that were going to Hogsmeade. She stood there alone, waiting for McGonagall to lead them away.

Rayne cocked her head as she noticed two boys walking toward her. "Must be her friends," she muttered under her breath. One was an average-looking red-headed boy whose face was completely covered with freckles. The other boy, however, was the one she couldn't take her eyes off of. His hair was adorable, dark black like her old hair, straight, and long enough to fall in front of his round black glasses. His eyes were what got her attention though. They were the brightest color of green she'd ever seen in her life. When he shook the hair out of his eyes, she saw a small odd-shaped scar on his forehead. 'He isn't what I'd call hot, but he definitely gets MY attention!' she let her mind wander.

"Hermione! How are you feeling? We were worried about you after drinking that potion..," the red head said.

"I was going to buy you some candy from Honeyduke's, but it looks like you can manage yourself now," the cute one said.

"Oh, well, thanks. I'm just going to do a little shopping today," she said. She also saw them looking at her outfit in surprise.

"Hermione, you- your clothes look better," the red head said hesitantly.

"Yeah, Ron's right, you look good today. Your hair is straight! That looks great!" Did Rayne actually just blush? 'Who was the last guy that did THIS to me? Not even Michael did this...'

"Hey Harry, we'd better get a move on if we want to catch up with the rest of the class!" Ron said, signaling that everyone else had gone already.

They all ran to catch up, all the while Rayne thinking about Harry, and how she was going to change this girl's image so bad that no one will recognize her.
