A Line Between Love and Hate?

"Hermionella!!"

The brown haired little girl ran from the cliff into the wood behind her, finally coming to a small, slightly run down cabin. An old gray haired witch was standing by the cabin door shaking her head.

"I told you to be inside the minute the sun begins to set Hermionella!!"

"Sorry I won't do it again...." The Hermionella chimed.

"Its all right, but don't you dare disobey me again you hear??? There is no time to talk, The Malfoys will be over for dinner tonight. They have a son exactly your age. Maybe you two can be friends!"

3:00 in the morning....

Moaning, Hermione Granger rolled around in her "bed" and finally stopped after rolling right into the arm of Draco Malfoy.

-------------



It was a warm summers morning, Draco, Ron, Harry, Hermione and Claudia were just awakening to the morning sun when all of a sudden....BOOM!!!!! The ground shook violently causing cracks to emerge on the ground.

Hermione and the rest sat upright quickly, "What was that???" Then another boom and slowly something appeared over the treetops. A gigantic something. At first glance it looked like a pile of boulders, but looking more closely the pile of boulders had a large human-shaped form with holes for eyes and a mouth. Soon, many others came into view, thier size larger than mountains and they were heading straight for the campsite.

"Oh shit." Draco managed to mutter. He looked around at everyone, "Well?? RUN!!!!"

Claudia and Hermione managed to let out high pitched shreiks before running in the opposite direction. Harry and Ron did the same. Draco followed. So farther into the wood they ran. Running, running, running running.....CRASH. They all staggared back and found that they had crashed into one of the many monsterous rock giants they had been running from moments ago. Draco cleared his head. He could've sworn...and there it was, a rather large imprint of the Dark Mark on the giants ankle. Well... if you call a deformed boulder an ankle.

"They work for the Dark Lord!!! The Dark Mark is on its left ankle!!" Draco yelled to the others as they all ducked a heavy blow from the giants boulder fist. "They were sent!! We'll have to fight them!!"

"How???" Shreiked Hermione as she narrowly dodged another blow from the giant.

Draco didn't awnser but pulled out his wand and yelled "CRUCIO!!" At the top of his lungs. Claudia watched fascinated and wide eyed as a red light shot out from the tip of the "wand". Meanwhile Ron covred slapped his forehead and groaned, the spell had simply reflected off of the giants thick chests and was shooting straight at Draco. Draco dived. The spell narrowly missed Harry and shot straight through a tree. Claudia felt a jolt run through her. The monster roared in what sounded like triumph and made a grab for Draco. Claudia stepped forward. Her eyes went green and the monster was instantly was thrown of its feet, it flew backwards and collided into the other ones behind him. The rock monsters shattered, and boulders flew everyhere. Draco, Ron, Harry, Hermione, and Claudia ran for cover.

Finally after going into a clearing, they stopped. Ron gaped at Claudia.

"What the hell was that?????" He panted.

Claudia shook her head, "I don't know, thats not the first time it happened either. I just, lose control of myself."

"Whatever, I don't care if you know or not." Draco growled, "But I don't like you, get away from us!"

"Malfoy!!!" Hermione crossed her arms, "You stunning her is enough!! Its alright er what your name??"

Claudia was still staring at Draco.

"Claudia." Ron awnsered for her.

"Okay, Claudia." Hermione said touching Claudias shoulder to get her attention."Unless you have something important to do, can you come with us for a while?"

"What???" Harry and Draco said together.

"We need someone from this place to at least direct us out of this forest. An american like her."

"Woah there Hermione." Harry crossed his arms too, "I don't think this is such a good idea, if what Malfoy says is true, then this is way dangerous for an ordinary muggle to handle..."

Hermione ignored her, "Ordinary muggle??? Did you see what happened back there??? Harry, we need her. First to help us out of this forest. Sec---"

"Oh you don't need me for that," Claudia interrupted, "Look."

She pointed her finger to a collection of lights up ahead.

"Its a city!!!" Ron beamed.

"Thats not just a city, thats Disney World!" Claudia grinned.

"Disney World??" Draco blinked.

"Hey its civilzation, anything better than this freak forest..." Harry spoke.

"Well then lets go!!!" Ron said starting to walk. Hermione followed him and then Harry. But Claudia stayed rooted on the spot.

"Whats wrong?" Ron said impatiently.

"I have to go find my friends....sorry guys I can't stay with you. But We were going to Disneyworld next so I might see you again. Here." Claudia reached into her pocket and gave them a huge wad of muggle money. " I figure you'll need muggle money on the trip."

"But...how did you know about---"

"I know, my brother is a wizard. I know tons about your kind...and seeing as you had no muggle money on you and as you seem to be lost...."

"How did you know we had muggle money?" Draco asked.

"Well I gotta go!!" Claudia clapped her hands together. "See ya!!" She then blew them a kiss and ran off.

"Wow she was hot.." Ron flushed, "Think we'll see her again?"

"Definitley not." Draco shook his head.

"How d'you know that she won't?"

"Alright I don't know for sure, but before you start missing her Weasley, I suggest you check your pockets..."

Ron reached into his pockets. "Why am I--- HEY!!!! THAT WENCH STOLE MY REMEBERALL!!!"

Hermione shook her head and beckoned them foward. It was a longer way than it looked. but within what seemed like 3 hours time, they finally came to a large sign that said Disney World.

"I suppose thats were you go in." Said Draco pointing to a long line. So Draco and them fell in line, the other didn't know about Muggle money so Hermione payed and they went inside.

"So...now what?" Ron asked.

"Food!!" Cried Harry "Pleaaaaase Moine????"

"Ugh fine." Hermione rolled her eyes and went to stand in line in front of a churros stand. Thats when Harry, Ron, and Draco heard a squeaky voice came from behind them. They gaped. A huge mouse (or what looked like a mouse) was standing behind them and he was even wearing a red jumper.

"Welcome friends, to Disney World!! The happiest place on earth!!" It piped.

Ron, Harry, and Draco stared. The mouse gave a squeaky laugh, bear-hugged Draco and then skipped off.

3 mins later....

Moine returned with ICEEs and churros "Hey guys, er... whats wrong?"

Draco was vomiting into a nearby plant while Harry and Ron while doubled over in laughter.

"What did you guys do to him????" Hermione glared.

"W-We did'nt do a-anything!" Ron managed.

"Then what happened???"

"Ex-Death Eater Draco Malfoy just got bear hugged by happy freak mouse over there!!!" Harry pointed to the large mouse who was now hugging little kids.

"Silly, thats Mickey Mouse!!" Hermione grinned, "I used to watch these American cartoons..... he one of my favs!!!"

"Ew, you watch American cartoons???"

"Got a problem??" Hermione asked with fiery eyes.

"N-no...." Harry and Ron both stammered.

"That t-thing is gonna pay for this!!!" Said Draco who had finally stopped vomiting.

"Ugh. Not if I can help it." Said Moine shoving the food in Rons arms and grabbing a part of Dracos sleeve. "C'mon boys, this is America!! Lets enjoy it and have a nice vacation!!"

"If you say so Moine..." Shrugged Ron. "Wait what about ou-- I mean, your daughter????"

"Her grandmother there to take care of her." Hermione awnsered simply.

"And your wife??" Ron asked turning to Harry. Harry shrugged, "She wouldn't care less if I was alive or dead really... besides, I wanna see this place Uncle Vernon always used to tell Dudley about its called 'Las Vegas' or something..."

"Well then its settled!!" Hermione grinned as she pulled Draco away, Harry and Ron followed in her wake.
