A/N: sorry that I haven't been able to update lately, but I've had a lot of homework lately. Bloody teachers. Anyway, this is a funny/serious chapter so I hope that you enjoy it! Forgive any mistakes or grammatical errors.

A/N2: thanks to Butterfly Beauty for help in the songs of the previous chapters and for the songs coming up! Also I refuse to update unless I get at least 5 or more reviews for this chapter.

Maya, Blaise, and Draco had gotten a train to take to the south of England, then decide what to do from there. Maya was sitting in one of the compartments in the back of the train trying to remember why she felt so comfortable in it. She had always loved trains. It was a warm feeling that she always got when she saw one. The kind of feeling you get when you remember something happy.

Draco and Blaise came in with their travel papers and stuffed them into Blaise's suitcase. While Draco was putting the suitcase on the overhead compartment, he went to sit down in front of Maya until he heard Pooka growling.

"Oh, the mutt gets the window seat." He said as he sat down next to Maya, whom by the way was slouching trying to think of a memory about trains.

"Stop fiddling with that thing," said Draco. "Sit up straight. Remember you're an equal value to a princess."

"How is it that you know what princesses do or don't do?" Maya inquired.

"I make it my business to know." Draco replied smoothly.

"Oh."

After a moments silence, he turned to her and apologized.

"Look, Maya, I'm just trying to help, alright?"

"Draco?"

"Hmm?"

"Do you really think I'm Hermione?"

"You know I do."

"Then stop bossing me around." With that said, she turned her face to once again stare outside the window.

"Well, she certainly has a mind of her own." Spoke up Blaise.

"Yeah, I hate that in a woman." Replied Draco, while Maya stuck out her tongue in a childish manner when his back was turned. It was Blaise who saw this.

Blaise took out a paper and put it on top of the crossword puzzle he was doing and put 2 ones under Maya's Name. Draco had 3. Maya had 20.

Draco excuses himself saying he's going to the restroom, meanwhile Blaise went off in search of food and Maya sat quietly reading a book on Paris.

When Draco came back and saw her through the compartment door window, he thought to himself, she certainly acts a lot like Hermione. Who would be reading a book on Paris unless it's Hermione?

He went in and started to apologize, but after her response he took it back.

"Look, I think we got off on the wrong foot." He said.

"Well, I think we did, too," she replied lowering the book to see his face. "But I appreciate your apology."

"Apology? Who said anything about an apology? I was just saying-"

She cut him off. "Please, just don't talk. It'll only upset me more."

Well, if I doubted she was Hermione before, now I don't. especially with that attitude. Thought Draco.

"Alright. I'll be quiet, if you be quiet." Said Draco.

"Alright I'll be quiet."

"Fine."

"Fine."

"Fine!"

"Fine!"

They stayed silent for a while until Maya asked him something.

"You think you're going to miss it?" she asked.

"Miss what? You're talking?" he replied annoyed.

"No! England."

"Nope."

"But it was your home."

"It was a place I once lived. End of story."

"Then you must plan on making Paris your true home."

"What is it with you and homes?" he said, throwing his hands in the air dramatically.

"Well ,for one thing it's something that every normal person wants. And another thing its something where you-you know."

"What?"

"Oh just forget it!" she said clearly irritated. Blaise had come back with Pooka in his arms.

"Fine!" said Draco.

"Oh, thank good ness it's you," Maya said seeing that it was Blaise. "Just please remove him from my sight!" she said pointing an accusing finger at Draco.

"What have you done to her?" asked Blaise to Draco.

"Me? I haven't done anything!"

"HA!" Maya said, throwing her arms in the air and leaving the compartment.

"Oh, no, an unspoken attraction." Said Blaise to Pooka.

"Attraction!" said Draco. "For that skinny little brat? Have you lost your mind!" he said leaving the compartment as well.

"I was only asking a simple question." Said Blaise to no one in particular.

"Attraction. Ridiculous!" said Draco to himself.

Outside of the train black robed figures were gliding towards the train making it cold, but since it was wintertime, the occupants of the train thought nothing of it.

Blaise was going to get some snacks for himself and the others until he heard a nearby person say that last month the traveling papers were blue, but they had changed the color and are now red. He quickly went to the compartment where Maya was asleep and Draco watching over her.

"What?" asked Draco, when he saw Blaise panting.

"It's what I hate about this government," Blaise said. "Everything's in red."

"Red?" gulped Draco.

"I propose that we move to the baggage car, quickly. Before the guards come." Said Blaise.

"I propose that we get off this train." Said Draco grabbing the suitcases and handing them to Blaise.

"Maya." Draco was gently shaking Maya awake. But unfortunately when she turned around to face him her hand slapped his face.

That caused her to wake up. "Oh, sorry. I thought you were someone…" when she saw that it was Draco she planned on going back to sleep. "Oh, it's you, well, that's alright then."

"Come on, get your bags. We've got to go." Draco said rubbing his nose.

"You broke my nose!" he accused.

"Mean are such babies." She whispered to herself, following him out of the compartment.

When they got to the baggage compartment, they set down their things and tried to heat up the car.

"She'll freeze in here." Said Blaise, tightening his sweater around himself.

"She can thaw in Paris." Said Draco coldly.

"The baggage car?" Maya inquired when she realized where they led her. They chuckled nervously.

"There wouldn't be anything wrong with our papers now, would there, Maestro?"

"Of course not, your grace. I just hate to see you forced to mingle with all those commoners." Lied Draco smoothly.

The black figures that were outside of the train suddenly separated the baggage car from the rest of the train. (A/N: for those of you who haven't seen this movie, the baggage car is in the front of the train right after where the conductor drives the train.)

"What was that?" asked Draco.

"I don't know," replied Blaise. "But there goes the dining car." He said sadly.

Draco had landed on top of Maya from the force of the impact of the explosion.

"Get off of me." Grunted Maya.

"I'm trying." Said Draco. He finally got off her and helped her up.

"Uh, Draco?" said Blaise.

"What?"

"I think someone has flambéed our engine!" Blaise said looking at the conductor's car in front of them.

"Something's not right." Said Draco. "Wait here. I'll check it out." He climbed into the conductor's car and found that nobody was driving the train. He went back to tell Maya and Blaise and told them that their only chance was to jump.

"Did you say jump?" shrieked Maya. Draco opened the side door only to see that they were now crossing a bridge. "After you!" said Maya.

"Fine. Then we'll uncouple the car." Draco said.

The figures melted the uncoupling device together to make it never impossible to separate the car.

Draco got a hammer and started to pound on the device to try to separate it, but with no luck.

"Come on, there has to be something in there better than this!" he said. Maya handed him a piece of lit dynamite. "That'll work!" he said stupidly.

"Go, go, go!" he said sheltering himself and Maya with his arms in the back of the car with Blaise next to them. "What do they teach you in those orphanages?"

The explosion that little piece caused blew up one part of the car.

"The brakes are out!" screamed Blaise, who was trying to turn them as hard as he could.

"Turn harder!" said Draco. The brake wheel came loose.

"Don't' worry, we have plenty of tracks. We'll just coast to a stop." But another explosion told them otherwise. The other bridge that they were due to cross at any moment was blasted to pieces by the figures.

"You were saying?" Maya said turning to look at Draco to see if he had anymore ideas. He did.

"I've got an idea. Blaise, give me a hand with this." He climbed under the train and tied the chain to the bottom of the train and with Maya's help (Blaise was busy trying to get out of a box he fell into) they pushed the rest of the chain out of the car and onto the tracks. It grabbed the tracks and pulled the train to its side. Draco almost fell onto the tracks, but Maya pulled him up in time to see what would've happened if she didn't.

"And to think that could've been you." Said Maya.

Draco climbed back up onto the car and said to Maya, "If we live through this, remind me to thank you."

"Well, this is our stop!" said Maya jumping off onto the snow with her things. Blaise and Draco followed her example.

"I hate trains. Remind me never to take the train again." Said Draco, with Blaise and Maya nodding in agreement.

Meanwhile back with Voldemort and Peter….

"Relax, master, really." Said Peter.

Voldemort was babbling and almost broke his wand in half, but calmed once he remembered why he couldn't.

"How could they let her escape?" screamed Voldemort to Peter.

"You're right. It's very upsetting, sir. Huh. I guess this wand is broken." He picked up a hammer to smash it, but Voldemort stopped him.

"You idiot!" he screamed, "I sold my soul for this. And you almost destroyed it!"

"I'm sorry, master; it was very foolish of me. It will not happen again." Said Peter, kissing the hem of his robes.

"See that you remember, you miserable rodent."

"Oh sure blame the faithful servant, what the heck we're easy targets." Peter muttered.

"What are you muttering about?"

"Hermione, sir. Just wish I could do the job for you. I'd Crucio then Avada her. And I'd kick her, sir."

"I have something else in mind," Voldemort said twirling his wand in his right hand. "Something really cruel." He pointed his wand to a nearby rock and muttered a spell that turned it to cinders.

"Are we going to walk to Paris?" asked Maya.

"We'll take a boat when we get to the south of England." Replied Draco.

"Oh, so we're walking to there."

"No, your grace, we're taking a bus."

"A bus. That sounds nice." She said thinking of her feet.

"Ginny, my dear, Blaise is on his way!" Blaise said to no one in particular.

"Who's Ginny?" asked Maya.

"Who is Ginny? She's a tender little morsel. A cup of hot chocolate after a long walk in the snow." He said dreamily.

"Blaise, ix-nay on the ophie-say." Said Draco, who came up to him, once he realized what Blaise was about to say.

"She's a decadent little pastry filled with whipped cream and laughter." Continued Blaise, who grabbed Draco's hands and began to dance with him as if he was a woman.

"Is this a person or a creampuff?" asked Maya laughing to Draco.

"She's the Ron Weasley's ravishing little sister." He said, as he let go of Draco and continued to hum to himself.

"I thought that we were going to see Ron and Harry themselves. Why are we going to see Ron's little sister?" asked Maya. "Draco?"

"Nobody gets near Harry and Ron without convincing Ginny first." Said Draco nervously.

"Oh, no. Not me. No, no! nobody ever told me I had to prove I was Hermione! Show up, yes. Look nice, fine. But lie?"

"You don't know if it's a lie." Said Draco quickly. "What if it's true?"

She turned around but he grabbed her arm and said, "OK, so there's one more stop on the road to finding out who you are. I just thought that this was something you had to see through the end no matter what."

"But look at me, Draco. I'm not exactly Hermione Granger material here!" he half-screamed.

She walked over to Blaise who was leaning on the side of a wooden bridge, looking at the water. He had a rose in his hand, which he gave to her.

"Tell me, Maya, what do you see?" he asked gesturing to the water beneath them.

"I see a skinny little nobody. With no past, and no future." She said throwing the rose into the stream.

"I see an engaging and fiery young woman, who on a number of occasions has shown a regal command equal to any royal in the world. And I have known my share of royalty. You see, I was a member of a high class society for a time. And during that time I never met anyone as remarkable as you. Not even a princess."

Maya smiled at the thought and compliment and she thanked him. Draco came by and stood next to her and asked her if she was ready to become the Hermione Granger.

She was a bout to turn away until Blaise said something.

"There is nothing left for you back there. Everything is in Paris." He said gesturing to the road ahead of them.

She thought for a moment, then said, "Gentlemen, start your teaching."

"I remember it well." Said Blaise.

(BLAISE)
You were born in a house on a hill.

(MAYA)
A house by a hill?

I never cared for that retched Map!

(BLAISE)
She said that very haughtily!

(DRACO)
The Balls.

(BLAISE)
The Feasts.

(MAYA)
Dessert and then goodnight?

(BLAISE AND DRACO)
Not until you get this right!

(BLAISE)
If I can learn to do it

(DRACO)

(BLAISE)
You can learn to do it!

Now here we have McGonagall

(DRACO)
Shot with Stunners.

(BLAISE)
In the chest.

(MAYA)
Oh!

No!

(BLAISE)
The Potions Master

(MAYA)
He was...?

(DRACO)
Evil!

(BLAISE)
Trelawney.

(MAYA)
Was... ?

(DRACO)
Mad!

(BLAISE)
Professor Lupin

(DRACO)
Wore a tattered robe.

(BLAISE)
I hear he's gotten very fat.

(MAYA)
And I recall his yellow cat!

(BLAISE)
I don't believe we told her that.

(MAYA)
If you can learn to do it,
I can learn to do it!

(BLAISE)
Don't know how you knew it

(MAYA)
I simply knew it!
Suddenly I feel like someone new...

(BLAISE AND DRACO)
Maya, you're a dream come true!

If I can learn to do it,

(MAYA)
If I can learn to do it

(BLAISE AND DRACO)
You can learn to do it!

(MAYA)
You can learn to do it.

(BLAISE AND DRACO)
Pull yourself together

(ALL THREE)
And you'll pull through it!

(BLAISE)
Tell yourself it's easy,

(ALL THREE)

(BLAISE AND DRACO)
You can learn to do it,

(MAYA)
Nothing to it!

(ALL THREE)
You can learn to do it too!
