HARRY POTTER AND THE HALF-BLOOD PRINCE- OUT ON JULY 16, 2005. yey!!!!!!

Chapter Sixteen- A not-so-violent fight and a secret revealed.

"HERMIONE!!!!!!"

Hermione whirled around because of a familiar voice. When she saw the one who yelled out her name, she turned pale.

It was Draco…and he was wearing a silly pink hat. And he looked tired.

"Draco," Hermione greeted him coolly.

"Hermione," Draco said, his eyes welling up.

"You know each other?" Tom asked.

"Yes, yes we do," Hermione said. "He's Draco Malfoy, my ex-boyfriend."

Draco looked at Tom with horror. His nightmare came true! Hermione was with Tom and the worst part is…he saw them almost kissing!

"Why are you staring like that?" Tom asked him coldly.

"L-Lord V-Voldemort," stammered Draco.

"Who's he?" Tom asked, looking at Draco as though he was a dunder-head.

Hermione decided to butt in so no one would get hurt (she's exag!).

"Tom, where were we again?" asked Hermione sweetly.

"Kissing," Tom said and kissed Hermione passionately.

"STUPEFY!!" yelled Draco, pointing his wand at Tom.

"NOO!!!" Hermione said, shielding Tom and was Stunned.

Tom glared at Draco and pulled out his wand.

"Tantallegra!" he yelled and made Draco dance himself silly.

"Serpensortia!" Draco said and conjured up a snake (it was the ONLY spell he remembered).

"Bite that shallow-minded, white-haired man over there," hissed Tom.

The snake slithered to Professor Dippet and bit him.

"Get Madam Kinsella!" screamed Professor Sewell with tears on her eyes. "And you boys please stop this instant or else you will get expelled!!"

The students were looking back and forth at Tom and Draco who were shooting spells at each other as if it were a tennis match.

"Betcha a Galleon that Tom would win and that man from the future would go back to his maker," whispered a young boy who was watching the fight in awe.

"SOMEBODY DO SOMETHING TO THIS HAVOC THAT IS RUINING OUR GOOD REPUTATION!!" yelled Professor Sewell furiously. "I HAVEN'T MY WAND SO I CANNOT POSSIBLY FIX IT!!"

Ludwig Granger stood bravely. "I will try to conquer my fear of gladiators."

"LUDWIG THOSE AREN'T GLADIATORS THOSE ARE TWO VERY ATTRACTIVE MEN!" said Ditee. "AND IF THEY SHOOT FIRE ON EACH OTHER'S FACES THEY WON'T BE ATTRACTIVE ANYMORE! SO STOP THEM!!!!!!!"

"Locomotor Mortis!" said Draco, just as Tom was saying "Expelliarmus."

Draco was disarmed and Tom was…well…in a VERY NOT good condition.

"Finite Incantatem!" said Ludwig absently and Draco got back his wand, Hermione was okay, and Tom was also okay.

The students cheered. "LUDWIG! LUDWIG! LUDWIG! LUDWIG!"

"To the infirmary, the three of you," said Madam Kinsella with her trainee and niece Prunella Pomfrey.

"Wait, I don't need to be in the infirmary, I need to tell something to Ludwig.

"Okay," Madam Kinsella agreed. "Come on Prunella."

"Auntie, shan't we check if all her bones are in place?" Hermione heard Prunella ask her aunt as she followed her, carrying healing potions.

"Ludwig," Hermione began. "Thank you."

"Your welcome," grinned Ludwig.

"There's something I need to tell you…" Hermione said.

"Okay…say it."

"Y-You're my grandfather."

"WHAT?!" Ludwig could not believe what he just heard. Him? Sexy, handsome, cutie Ludwig Granger married and standing right in front of her was his own flesh and blood! "Tell me you're joking."

"Nooo I'm not!" said Hermione. "And you're going to have a son named Martin and she's going to marry a Muggle and produce me."

"Sooo…you're a half-blood," Ludwig said softly.

"Yes, and Daddy doesn't speak of you and we don't know about your whereabouts." She looked sheepishly at her grandfather.

"Oh, my dear granddaughter," whispered Ludwig and pulled Hermione into a hug.

"I always knew you'd love me, even though you're a bit prejudiced."

The two Grangers laughed.
