"MAAAALLLLLLLFFFFFFFOOOYYYYYY!"

A loud, piercing shriek that could easily rival a banshee's echoed across the Great Hall, reaching the ears of a certain platinum-haired Slytherin. A smirk spread across his lips.

"I guess Granger heard the good news."

Malfoy swiveled around in his seat and turned around, spreading his arms out in welcome. A friendly yet smug expression graced his features.

"Graaaanger..."

WHACK! Hermione's hand smacked his arms away from her.

"Don't you Granger me, you annoying, conniving, pureblooded prat! I demand THAT you explain to me what RUMORS you happen to be spreading to everyone!!"

"Hey...don't blame me for your actions. I'm not the one who was sitting up in her room, listening to music on suicide and...HELL..."

Several gasps were heard from wizards and witches who were devout Christians.

"Me mum said that sort of music is the DEVIL'S WORK." Seamus exclaimed. Hannah Abbott and Susan Bones both nodded vigorously in agreement. The three of them performed the sign of the cross over their chest.

(A/N: I'm sorry if that passage offends anyone who practices Christianity. I didn't mean any harm.)

"So Granger," Draco exclaimed, drawing the attention back to him. "What's the reason for your little dance of DOOM? Not getting enough from the Weasel? Because I sympathize with you there; he must possess the smallest di-"

POW!

"OW!!! MY NNNNNOOOOOOSEEE!"

"Yeah Hermione! That'll teach him to insult the size of my thing!"

"SHUT UP RON!!"

Hermione was completely livid; her eyes seemed to be swallowed in a deep crimson, her cheeks were flushed and she was breathing very loudly through her nostrils.

"Let me set the record straight. I am PERFECTLY fine in my mental and physical health and am certainly NOT contemplating on how to finish my self off in ANY FORM WHATSOEVER. And to those who don't particularly agree with my taste in music...SCREW YOU ALL!!"

Everyone was completely still and startled at Hermione's words. Rarely did the know-it-all bookworm use inappropriate words in her language.

"If anybody, and I mean ANYBODY, starts spreading rumors about my personal life I will see to it that they will be missing multiple body parts!"

Hermione spun around, marching towards the door. She stopped suddenly and turned around again.

"And I assure you, they will be body parts you will MISS."

And with that little soliloquy over, Hermione spun around again. Her loud footsteps were heard across the entire Great Hall and was soon followed with an even louder door slam.

"Hehe...look, Malfoy's left eye is twitching..."
