Disclaimer: Blah,blah,blah, read it in the first chapter
This chapter is dedicated to one of my best friends, Kira. Just like mine, her favourite characters are Hermione and Draco, that's why this new, nice verbal fight (which Mione wins (goooooooo MIONE)) is for her!!!! Thanks for your support and your tips for stories here at ff.net.. Hope that our common project we plan to write with Sandi will come true..Anyway, this is for you. ^_^.
A/N: As you can see, the spacing problem is solved. I don't really know what happened, cause in my computer the whole thing was spaced. Anyway, my friend Lucius Sikilmituile (who is also posting this for me as I can't find the file in my document manager (I had many people looking for it in case I'm just blind or stupid) so I have to send it to her by mail) found a solution and corrected it.
(Errrm, did you understand that, it was pretty confusing..).
Well, now on to the chapter!!!!!!!!!!!
Chapter Two: Wonder Ferret (author whistles innocently)
The morning of leaving again for school was very busy at the burrow. Harry, Hermione, Ginny and Ron were running up and down the stairs, in and out of their dormitories, gathering things they still needed to pack, while Percy was complaining about their noise and lack of organisation and Fred and George were making bets about who would be the first to sit down at the breakfast table with them (It didn't come to an agreement though, as both wanted to put their bets on Hermione). Meanwhile Mrs. Weasley was preparing pancackes and whistling a happy tune. It always made her proud seeing her children leave for school (especially since both her youngest children were prefects and in the Quidditsch team, Ginny as Chaser and Ron as keeper). Hermione and harry were like own children for her, she would stand up for them in front of everybody, just like she would do for her own children (A.N.: Yup, even Fred and George, the mischievous two). Two minutes later it was indeed Hermione who arrived first at the table, closely followed by Ginny, Harry and finally also Ron.
"Hurry now children, you only have ten minutes before we have to leave for the station", Mrs. Weasley told them. Hearing her words the four nearly inhaled their food so they were ready just in time. As the platform 9 ¾ were the Hogwarts Express was supposed to leave had recently been connected to the floo- net due to muggles slowly getting suspicious about groups of people hanging around a barrier and suddenly disappearing (A.N.: It took them a lot of time, don't you think?"), they were able to leave home only fifteen minutes before the train started off to their new school term.
One after the other the four of them plus Mrs. Weasley stepped into the fire, threw a hand full of floo powder into it and shouted clearly "Platform 9 ¾ !", only to appear there a second later, greeted by a large crowd of comrades and the welcome cries from their friends.
After saying goodbye to Mrs.Weasley and Harry and Hermione thanking her for letting them stay at the burrow ( "Please my dear children, that was self evident, I hope you will be coming on easter vacations?" ), the group got on the train and settled inside a free compartment, reserving seats for Lavender (Ron's girlfriend) and Parvati (who Lavender could never be seen without, except if she wanted to be alone with Ron of course...). The two girls arrived two minutes later and after greeting each other and Ron and Lavender making a scene as if they had not seen each other for ages ("you don't know how much I missed you", "Not as much as I missed you", "My days were without sun as long as you were not around", "My desperation would have touched a Dementor", etc., etc.) for about three minutes until Hermione audibly cleared her throat, the four girls started talking about the newest fashion, interesting movies they had seen and how good some actors looked. Meanwhile the boys discussed, of course, Quuidditsch, Dean and Seamus soon passing by and joining their conversation. Their journey remained that peaceful for about an hour, until the obligatory visit of none other than Draco Malfoy, king of sarcasm and evil smirks (A.N.: Be careful Malfoy, Hermione is gaining on you on that first point!).
"Look, look", he drawled, "What do we have here? Hogwarts' very own freakshow!"
"Sod off Malfoy", Harry spat at him with enough venom to frighten a cobra.
"But Harry", Hermione joined in innocently, "You can't possibly talk to him like that!", changing into a teasing tone she added, "After all he is a unique wonder of nature, a talking, blind ferret!!. Although, come to think of it, ferrets would also recognize their enemies if they were blind.so let's say a Talking, blind and stupid ferret, even more of a wonder!".
Draco swallowed hard, how dare she speak of him like that? Following an impulse he violently grabbed the collar of her jacket, looked into her eyes and growled dangerously, "I already warned you Granger, dont't try and mess with me or you'll regret it." He noticed her friends were pointing their wands at him "Get the hell away from her Malfoy", Ron threatened him. Hermione on the contrary motioned them to sit down again
"I can handle this cheap excuse for a man myself guys.", she then drew her attention back to Malfoy. When she looked into his eyes which still were full of loathing towards her person she didn't even blink, didn't show the slightest sign of fear, instead she spat back, "Please Malfoy, don't make any impossible threats. You know you can only attack me verbally, and that I can more than easily bear. Any serious corporal attack like you are suggesting would imply loosing your Head Boy badge and, in addition, having to deal with Ron, Harry, and all my fellow Gryffindors. I'm sure you don't want that to happen, do you Draky?", she asked in a mockingly sweet tone (A.N.: Wow! I never thought she could be so mean! Explanation for her new confidence you'll find in chapter five).
Exasperated, the blond Slytherin left the compartment slamming the door shut behind him. After walking a few steps though he had to smirk, he loved verbal fights, sadly (but obviously) his fellow housemates were no match for him, now with these new perspectives, the school year didn't seem to become as boring as he had thought it would be.
A.N.: I know, Ron is behaving a little bit OoC here, but love changes everybody. As I'm a half Argentinian, half German writer who lives in Spain and this is my first fic I hope you'll understand some little mistakes and sometimes the shortage of language. Anyway I hoped you liked my effort which, compared to the masterpiece of J.K. Rowling and the fantastic fics of some authors, is rather poor. But I like it and have great fun writing it and reading it out to my friends one of whom also writes fanfics and posts her own here (Harry/Lucius fics) I'm not so much into her favourite pairings but the fics are good. Please review, no matter if you have criticisms, after all I want to learn and improve my English. ^_^
Sunny summer greetings from Barcelona,

Answers to your reviews:
First of all I'd like to say thank you to everyone who took the time to write one, it means a lot to me. Then I noyiced I have 8 reviews, but I only received 6 (one I answered personally and one was empty??), so here you have the other four. To the ones I'm not answering here, I'm sorry, but I didn' receive you review. Libby: Thank you for your review, as you can see, the spacing is much better now. I hope you enjoy this chapter.
Books 3: I'm really glad you like the story, it's my first Harry Potter fic (I've got another one here, too, but I started writing this one earlier and then I posted the two first chapters of the stories together). How did you find this chapter? Padfoot the mst king: Well, I did a little bit of research on mst and I agree to your proposition. As they say in Germany, wer nicht wagt der nicht gewinnt (translated: who doesn't dare, doesn't win). I don't think I would be too upset if it was msted, it would be fun to read a parody of my own fic, although I would be proud to have it marauder approved either. Just tell me about you decision and what I must do.
