AN: Hey everyone! Yes, I AM alive. I know I haven't updated for about a year… but there is a somewhat good explanation for it… somewhat... Well…I was on writers block and sort of a hiatus… then there's school. It's a stupid reason, but ya… and then… I was lazy… hehe. Worst excuse ever, eh? Anywayz… now that that's over, thanks to all that reviewed this! And hopefully you'll all enjoy this chapter.

Ok, I know the last chapter was corny, but you'll probably be hearing more corny jokes.

Disclaimer: I don't own the HP cast….

Last: He had made a big mistake by letting that little information slip.

Chapter 4: Complaints

"Crazy teachers from hell." Draco muttered, heaving his now very large school bag over his shoulder. His hair fell into his face as he bent down to tie his shoelace. He muttered some more about crazy teachers and didn't notice the oncoming crowd of girls waiting for him to go home so they can stalk him…. Again.

Harry walked down the crowded hall and thought about who he should ask over since his 'parents' were out for the night. He sighed thoughtfully. 'I wonder who I should ask over…. And which country are we in? Their accent sure doesn't sound like ours… not that we have it anymore…. Maybe I should ask Hermione…. Or Ron….. hmm… what about Ginny? She does seem to annoy Malfoy a lot…'

While deep in thought he didn't notice where he was going and bumped into someone.

"Ow…" groaned the voice of the person that had fallen down. Harry immediately snapped out of his little daze and looked down at the fallen person.

"Hermione…?" said Harry a little in shock, "Sorry about that, wasn't watching where I was going." Harry quickly offered his hand to help her up and she gratefully took it.

"Thanks Harry and you're not the only one doing that," she smiled. "Don't you just love it here right now? I mean all the new things to learn and different places to explore and new things to see…" Hermione sighed as her eyes glazed over.

"Um… speaking of learning, my 'parents' are out for the night. Want to come over tonight and do homework together or something?" he asked.

"Alright, I just need to tell my 'parents' about it first," answered Hermione as she ran over to a pay phone around the corner and called her 'parents' up. After that was done, she gave her attention to Harry once again. "Hey… Harry, I'm going to invite Ginny too alright?" she asked.

"Sure," he answered.

That night Hermione and Ginny were over at Harry's house.

"Why the hell do we need 'English'! I speak PERFECT English! There is no use for this rubbish," growled Draco angrily, wishing he had his wand with him at that exact moment so he could kill Harry for inviting Hermione and Ginny over.

"Well, Malfoy... I'm guessing you've never taken English before. It's actually quite simple if you th-" started Hermione.

"Don't even start it Granger. I don't need 'English' I can live without it. Now what's this here… History… now THAT seems like something worth looking at," said Draco as he picked up the history text book and looked through it.

"What! This is ALL WRONG! Who ARE these people! There was only one ruler in France and he was King Fredrick! Top wizard known at that time! Not some 'King Louise IV' and some other muggle! Has this world gone mad!" growled Draco angrily.

"This is the muggle world Malfoy, if you haven't forgotten!" snapped Ginny, tired of his complaints. He hadn't stopped complaining since he got home from school, and quite frankly, it was getting mighty tiring.

"No one asked for your opinion, Weasley! Now shut the-" Draco said loudly, getting quite frustrated with all the nonsense he had to learn and finish for homework, and with the two girls bothering him in his moment of despair.

"HMM…! I wonder where Colin is." Harry said loudly, trying to break the argument between his two friends and (hopefully) temporal 'brother'. He sighed and then started to really ask himself where Colin really was.

Draco muttered something incoherent and turned away. Ginny and Hermione looked at each other and shrugged, both hoping nothing too terrible has happened to him.

The front door suddenly swung open with joyful force. "Hey guys!" Colin said cheerfully as he put his shoes away. Ron came in a few seconds afterwards scowling fiercely at Draco.

"Look what the weasel dragged in." Draco sneered.

"You called, drakey-pooh?" Ron sneered right back at him. And so, a glaring contest began.

Harry sighed and motioned to the others. "You guys want to come upstairs to explore? We haven't seen much of the house yet." He said quietly, careful to not disturb the two feuding enemies.

The other three nodded and followed the hero up the stairs leaving the other two glaring at each other.

Colin looked around the big hallway and exclaimed loudly, "Wow! I didn't even notice how nice it looks up here since we were in a hurry this morning!" He peered into his room since it was right across from the stairway. Harry readily agreed with Colin, nodding his head.

The hall was a light shade of blue with a lot of picture frames hanging up on the walls. The frames varied in size but the pictures inside told them that Colin, Harry, and Draco really did live here since they were little kids. There were five doors lining the walls. One door was at the very end of the hall, which they assumed to be their parents' room, and two other doors on either side of the walls. Facing their parents' room, on the right were Draco and Harry's rooms, and on the left, was the bathroom and Colin's room.

"Well, we could check out my room if you guys want?" Harry suggested while shrugging his shoulders. He pushed his glasses higher on the bridge of his nose and his eyebrows furrowed in confusion. "Hey… Do you guys hear that? It sounds like screaming…"

The others listened carefully, trying to make out any noise out of the ordinary. Soon all of their heads were turned in the direction of the front of the house where they all heard screaming. They all glanced at each other decidedly. "Well, I guess we should check it out?" Colin asked rhetorically as the others nodded along. What they saw made Harry want to be six feet underground.

AN: Yup… that's all for now… I've run out of brainpower to write anymore.. hehe. I know I said this chapter would come out sooner… but, well…
