The Young Phoenix Leaves the Nest
Author's note: Sorry about the poor grammar. I'm getting help.
Author's other note: Well looks like the only fics that are second to the Snape/Hemione time travel fics are the Dumbldore/Hermoine fics. So much for trying something at least a little original. Well this isn't a romance fic so don't worry about any Dumbledore/Hermione shipping. I have to go have vomit for several minutes after disturbing picture entered my mind. The idea and story just crept out of my head and I have to let it out. There will be a little romance but not much. Is anyone reading this story? Please review!
Chapter 3: Changing Stripes
Theodore believed that Madame Knackerwack's nursing skills were not up to par with Madame Pomphrey's. Hermione thought Madame Knackerwack was down right insane. This may have been due to the fact that she woke up covered in leaches. The poor girl wailed like a banshee when first woke up. Under different circumstances Nott would have found it quite amusing.
"Bill sumbun shut her ub? Sheebs reabby aboyin." Albus said, nursing his broken nose.
Nott walked over to Granger and quickly banished all the leaches off of her. Then, putting his spare wand back under his sleeve, he walked back to where he was sitting just before Hermione started to scream.
"Hey! Dey took all dour wans abay. Bhere dou get dat wan?" asked Albus
"Spare wand. Didn't you have spare wands back in these days" said Theodore
"Dats Cheading! What are dou talkin about?" asked Albus
"I just have one thing to say to you Dumbledore. Nitwit! Blubber! Oddment! Tweak!" Theodore said with an impish grin
"Are dou mad?" asked Albus
"Maybe he is a bit mad, yes." Granger answered for Nott, "By the way thanks for getting rid of those leaches. How did they get on me anyway?"
"Oh Madame Knackerwack put them on you. She seems like a lovely woman. If it weren't for that hideous hump on her back and that lazy eye she would be quite a catch. What do you think Theo?" Luna asked conversationally
"Why do you keep on trying to talk to me you insane nymph? And stop calling me Theo!" Theo ranted
"Don't call her that you bastard! You have no right to say that!" yelled Hermione
"That's a laugh. I don't have the right you say? The entire student body of Hogwarts says it behind Miss Lovegood's back. I have the decadency to say it to her face."
"Decency! That's a joke! You have no decency Nott! You take it back and apologize to Luna right now."
"I will apologize to her if you can just answer one question for me Granger. Do you think she is just a bit off? Come on Granger, if you don't agree with me just let me know."
Hermione tried to speak. She could not find her voice. She did think Luna had a slight case of dementia. Theo just looked at her with a superior smirk that only a Slytherin could give. Luna may be crazy but Nott was still a bastard for saying so.
"Not even going to try to lie this time Granger? That's a big surprise. For all your talk of the rights of others. That's all it is, just talk. Why do you fight for causes you don't believe in?
"You called me a Nymph. Nymphs are beautiful forest creatures. Do you think I'm beautiful, Theo?" Luna asked out of the blue. He gave an embarrassed look then figured what the hell.
"Oh course I think you're beautiful Lovegood. You have a sweetness about you I really don't think any man could resist. Even you Granger when you're in the Library with that intense look on that apple shaped face of yours. Something about a woman showing such passion, even though it may be about homework, just draws me in and makes me want to be close to you."
Everyone got quiet after that and just waited for the Professor to come back. Time seemed to pass by slower than a snail's crawl. A very aged snail's crawl. Albus couldn't stand the quite.
"So you're a Lovegood. That's a very respectable Wizarding family. I know the Nott's too but they have too many Dark Wizards in that family to be respectable. I haven't heard of the name Granger though. What Wizarding family do you belong to?" Albus asked
"I don't belong to any wizarding family. I'm a muggleborn." Hermione answered
"Ugh, I've been associating with a mudblood this whole time. Hope my housemates don't find out!" said Albus in disgust
