Before they had lunch Sharen and Sara had a quick discussion. Sara got everyone's attention by shooting up sparks with her wand. "There will be a small change in the groupings. Draco, you will be partnering up with group five. Hermione, come talk with us after you eat." With that, a bunch of hamburgers materialized before them. Hermione ate quickly, curious to know what the teachers wanted to talk to her about.

She quietly approached the table where Sharen and Sara were sitting, "You wanted to see me?" Sara nodded and motioned for her to sit down with them.

"you will start tutoring tomorrow if you want, or-" she was cut off by Hermione's nod of assent. Shrugging she continued, "you will have the rest of today to yourself then."

"why can't I start today?"

"you'll be tutoring the intermediate student's and all their doing today is getting taught the theory, they won't start practicing the actual spell's until tomorrow. Your main job will be helping any one having trouble, and cleaning up any accidents, and performing counter curses. Do we need to teach you the counter curses for the Intermediates?"

"No, we're just doing stunning, leg locker, and body bind right?" Sara nodded. "then I'll be fine, would it be okay if I went to the field after rest hour?"

"sure, just bear in mind the rules" Hermione nodded and went back to the tent. As the boys left for their tents Sharen turned to, "when are we hearing from Lucius?" Looking furtively around to make sure no-one had heard she answered, "tonight, he'll tell me when he'll take her then."

Hermione was laying exhausted on the field ground when Draco walked onto the field (she had just ran ten laps around it). He was his usual unpleasant self, "trying to get in on a game, Mud-blood? Want to give us all a good laugh?" Hermione glared at him and stood up, ready for a verbal battle.

"the only way I would consider joining a game with you people is if it's something like ultimate Frisbee."

"what is that?!"

"sorry, if you have to ask I can't tell you."

"stupid mud-blood."

"prat!"

"cow!"

"jerk!"

"idiot!"

"moron!"

"shrew!"

"Oh, shut up!"

"Make me!"

"Fine! I will!", by this time they had moved so that they were within two inches of each other; she reached up, and pulled him into a long smoldering kiss. "there," she said as soon as she released him, "you have a choice, either shut up, or I will do that in front of every-one at dinner tonight." She walked off the field leaving him gaping after her.

She spent the next day pleasantly, helping the other students when they had trouble and fixing the rare mishap. She would have liked to have helped the advanced students, but it made sense that the teachers would want an adult handling those classes.

She sat down to dinner thinking that she could get to like her new schedule, and she might have, if she hadn't gotten another surprise before every-one got to eat. As everyone got settled Sarah nodded to Sharen, which was obviously some kind of sign because she got every-ones attention by calling out, " could I have the Two's in front please!" Curious, Hermione got up and joined Draco at the front. When they got to the front Sharen asked Sarah, "care to do the honors?"

"only if you take the second part." She grinned and moved somewhere behind Hermione and Draco. Sarah turned to the rest of the class and said, "Gentlemen as you have probably figured out by now, Hermione here is the only non-Slytherin, so she is in the dark as to the REAL reason why we're here." there were some titters through the crowd. What in the hell is going- "little did she know that when she signed up for our class she had signed up for a class to recruit followers for the Dark Lord."
