-Herbology Horrors-

The net morning Harry awoke, still feeling full from last nights feast. He was once again attempting the impossible task of even slightly flattening his hair. Suddenly a voice spoke from behind him, the odd thing was, it was one of a girl.

"What is taking you two so long? Today is the first day of classes and almost all of Gryffindor has already gone down to the Great Hall!"

It was of course Hermione. Ron suddenly awoke with a snort.

"Hermione, you do know this is the boys dormitory right?" Harry asked, knowing that this was a stupid question.

"Of course I do, but anybody smart enough wouldn't be in bed still asleep."

"Hey!" Ron said, finally realizing what was going on. "What the...get out of here!" Ron, like many of the other guys, had slept in only his pajama bottoms, too lazy to try to find the top and therefore was shirtless. He quickly made sure that he was well coved up with the bed sheets feeling quite embarrassed.

"I'll be waiting for you two in the common room." She said moving towards the staircase suddenly much calmer than before.

"Why didn't you wake me up?" Ron asked Harry after Hermione had left the room.

"I would've eventually." Harry responded smiling and laughing under his breath.

"Right..."

10 minutes later the three of them raced down to the Great Hall where Professor McGonagall was already handing out schedules, giving them one of her piercing looks.

"Look Harry! Double Advanced Herbology! How lucky can we get? This is wicked!" It was Neville. Herbology was his favorite subject and the one he had made the best grades in.

"Wow, we've never had double Herbology before. I wonder what she has planned for us." Hermione said as Neville excitedly moved down the table to the next group of people.

"It's probably because it's the advanced class. This could be interesting." Harry commented. They each grabbed a piece of toast and started toward the greenhouses.

When they arrived there was already a large group of students gathered outside of the greenhouses.

"Why are we out here?" Ron asked, just as confused as all the others. As in answering his question Professor Sprout arrived that very moment.

"Good morning! Welcome to advanced Herboloy. This year will be based on experiencing the effects of certain plants, many in which we have read and studied using the textbooks. For your first lesson we will be traveling into the forest. Please, follow me."

The students all filed towards the forest, very silent and some with nervous looks on their faces. A few minutes later Professor Sprout stopped them in a small clearing which was mostly surrounded by vines. Harry at once recognized the plant. Ron let out a small "oh no" and Hermione jumped with excitement.

"Who can tell me the name of this plant?" She asked pointing into one corner where the largest cluster of vines was located. Hermione's hand, of course, shot strait up.

"Yes, Miss Granger."

"Devil's Snare."

"Correct! 5 points to Gryffindor. Like I said before, I know we have studied about this plant before but actually experiencing its effects will be a whole another effect. Now, who here has experienced the effects of Devil's Snare before?"

Harry, Ron, Hermione, and another boy from Hufflepuff all raised their hands. "Alright, Mr. Weasley, what is it that you have to do when caught in Devil's Snare?"

Ron responded, remembering quite well getting caught in the plant in the end of their first year, "You can't panic, you have to remain as calm as possible and then it will release you."

"Very nice! 10 more points to Gryffindor. Now, what we're going to do is I want all of you to line up in a single file line with you four in front." She said pointing to the four of them who had raised their hands. "All you have to do is climb up that ladder and then jump into the pit where the plant will catch you. Then as Mr. Weasley said, you must remain calm and you will simply pass through the plant onto the ground below. If you do panic the plant will begin to wrap its vines around you and would have the potential to kill you. You will not have to worry about too much though for I will be here with my wand just incase. Please proceed."

All of the students then lined up and started to climb up the latter. Harry was the first to proceed and He easily proceeded through the plant and out of the way before Hermione dropped out behind him.

As Hermione began to get up and tried to walk out she suddenly tripped and Ron fell out of the plant and landed on top of her.

"Ouch!" Hermione yelped

"What the...? What did I just land on?"

"Me Ron!" Hermione said, having difficulty speaking, then passing out.

"Will you two Hurry yup and get out from under there, we don't need anybody getting hurt here!" Professor Sprout shouted.

Ron got up and had to pick up Hermione and carry her out for she was unable to move. "I think it's too late for that professor."

"You two, take her to the hospital wing." She said, pointing to Ron and Harry. Ron, still carrying Hermione, and Harry then headed for the castle.

"I can't believe this happened!" Ron started as they traveled through the doors. "If she's not okay..."

"Don't beat yourself up Ron. You didn't know she was under there. Besides, I'm sure she's fine. Madam Pomphry will be able to heal her right up." Harry said trying to comfort Ron. They then remained quiet the rest of the way to the Hospital wing.

A/N: Hey! Thanks for reading, hope you liked it. Sorry if it was a little slow there at times. I'll try not to keep you in suspense for the next chapter for too long. So, now all you have to do is... REVIEW!
