26- Vampire?
'HERMIONE,' shouted Mona, once she had entered the Gryffindor tower. Most people who were working just looked at her strangely, before they went back to work. Mona scanned the tables, where was she? Mona flew up the girl's staircase, two steps at a time, avoiding all the questioning eyes. 'Thank Merlin,' she said as she saw Hermione sitting on her bed, reading 'The Advanced Art of Potions'. As she looked at the black cover of the book, Mona muttered, 'Snape could have written that.' 'No, not wrote, just assigned,' said Hermione. 'Why were you screaming my name anyway?' Hermione asked putting the book down. 'What if I told you,' said Mona quickly looking around, 'that I think I'm becoming a vampire.' 'What do you mean?' said Hermione just as swiftly, her brows furrowed with thought. Mona quickly told Hermione how she had felt while holding Harry's hand. 'So you're saying,' said Hermione slowly, 'that you had this urge...to, what?... bite Harry's hand?' 'No, who cares about the hand,' Mona dismissed the idea with a wave of her hand, 'it was the whole idea of blood, it... made me feel... hungry.' Hermione didn't talk for a while. She put her head in her hands. The look on her face was one of pure concentration. Her eyes seemed to be staring at nothing. Her mouth was slightly scrunched in a circle. Her hands were twirling the bushy waves of her hair. Finally, she looked up. 'You are not a vampire. That's for sure, they must be pure blood only, that's why they are quickly running out. But, maybe, all halfblood vampires feel this sometimes?' 'But I've never felt this before,' Mona whined. 'Then, there's only one person you must ask,' Hermione said looking straight at her. 'Dumbledore,' they said together.
27- Second Visit
'Um,' said Hermione uncertainly, 'Do you know the password, Mona?' 'Nnnnnn...yyyyy...yyyyy...' said Mona wobbling her head up, down, and sideways. 'Nnnnnnn no,' she said finally.
'Haven't you come here before?' said Hermione, 'What was his password?'
'Um, I think it was... lemon drops.'
'Lemon drops,' said Hermione, but nothing happened. 'Ugh, what are we going to do?' Hermione said frustrated.
Just then, the staircase started twirling, but someone was coming down. Snape landed nonchalantly, then looked up at them. 'Mona,' he said, then added, 'and Ms. Granger, or shall I now say Mrs. Weasley,' Snape added nastily with a smirk, 'What are you two doing at this time,' he lifted his eyebrows and gave a special look to Mona.
'Uh, Professor, we need to see Dumbledore, it's important,' Mona said quickly, giving Snape one of those looks that said: maybe you should come with us.
'Then, I shall accompany you,' he said as he narrowed his eyes and let them onto the staircase. Hermione was feeling very angry at Snape's remark.
Once up in Dumbledore's office, Mona explained everything. Snape was surprised. Hermione was angry that she couldn't figure it out. And, of course, Dumbledore was smiling.
'Well,' Dumbledore said, looking towards Hermione, 'I see someone else already knows about you.'
'Uh, ya,' said Mona uncomfortably, 'I'm sorry I told...'
Dumbledore interrupted, 'If I know this young lady, and I think I can say I can, I knew that she would find out within a month. Congratulations, Ms. Granger for exceeding my expectations.'
Hermione smiled magnificently in self pleasure, while Snape snorted.
'However, I must tell both of you not to tell anyone else. And Severus,' he added, looking in Snape's direction, 'I expect you to give more respect to Ms. Granger for she is now helping to protect your niece as well.' Dumbledore stressed on the Ms., and Snape blushed slightly and wondered how in the world Dumbledore had known about his cheek downstairs.
'Now, about your problem, Ms. Abd Allah, I don't think it will cause you any hardships. I know for a fact that through teenage years half blood vampires sometimes feel like real ones. However, since your father was not a vampire --your mother was—and since your stronger blood comes from your father, then this will not bother you as much.
But, I would like to ask you. Have you... been feeling anything else lately? Have you been discovering anything else about yourself?' said Dumbledore slowly and Snape seemed to perk up at this.
'What am I supposed to be... discovering?' said Mona with a laugh.
Dumbledore glanced at Snape quickly, and Snape likewise. 'For one, it could be a vampire's extraordinary ability to know what people are thinking. And, there might be other things as well..., but since you aren't feeling anything besides that, why should we worry?' Dumbledore stood up happily and escorted the lady's to the door as they said their thankyou's and goodbye's.
Once outside, Hermione said, 'Well, that was enlightening. Oh, and I don't think Professor Snape likes the idea that I know about this.'
'I don't think he's ever gonna 'give more respect' to you either,' said Mona with a laugh.
'Ya,' said Hermione catching on the subject, 'just wait till he takes house points from us later.'
