March21st
Dumbledore has started this whole extra class, its for fighting Voldemort. We learn all this cool dueling stuff and a lot more too. Everyone who wants to help against the dark side is invited to join, but before you join you are to take ventriloquism; it's a precision because somebody might want to feed Voldemort information about it. Dumbledore wants to keep secret what goes on in this extra class. I'm so glad Umbridge is gone she would have never aloud such a thing to occur! But anyway the first meeting was on the February 17th, a lot of students showed up and none got thrown out because of the feeding information thing. Dumbledore said he'd be doing more tests just in case someone turns to the dark side after he or she has joined up. Anyway a lot of students showed up wanting to fight, none of the Slytherins but no surprise their, Seamus came all of the 7th years pretty much and sixth years and well a whole bunch! The war has affected a lot of these kids and I guess they want their revenge or something. Harry is in a different program though a bigger program more strenuous because he's the most important part to defeating the dark lord. Dumbledore reckons he's going to come straight to Hogwarts soon and well Dumbledore might be a little mad but he's pretty good at his guess work. Its really scary to even think about really I mean, the final battle is coming soon (maybe) but still the thought that loved ones might die and people you care about so much might die. Just the thought that someone might or rather will die that's on the good side tears me up inside! What if George dies! Oh God I can't even think about that I love him too much! He gave me a promise ring on our last date 2 days ago, I haven't taken it off yet! It's gorgeous! Beautiful and enchanting, mesmerizing…
Love Hermione G
Hermione closed her diary shuddering at the thought that Voldemort might actually come to Hogwarts. What if everyone dies! Hermione shook away her disturbing thoughts and went down to the common room where she met Harry, he was doing his homework.
"Wow Harry your actually doing work!" Harry glared at her menacingly.
"You try having all these bloody lesson and quidditch and everything else and having the whole entire bloody world depend on you to save them!"
"Oh Harry your not alone you know, a lot of people are trying to help, you know."
"I know! But it's different!" Hermione sank down on the couch and gave Harry a encouraging hug,
"You're doing great Harry you know that right?"
"Thanks Mione." Harry returned her hug and they sat like that for a few moments. "I miss Sirius so much at times like these he really could have helped."
"He's still here Harry, in here." Hermione put her hand on Harry chest.
"But he's not here, here and I need him so much!" Harry cried, Hermione sighed, well at least he's letting he's feelings out instead of bottling them all up like he usually does. "He was the last key to my parents! And don't say theirs still Remus! Remus might still be here but he's to bloody busy to care! Sirius wasn't he always had time! ALWAYS! He was the only family I ever really had and now he's gone too!" Harry was crying on Hermione shoulder by now, "Damn this I feel so bloody weak!"
"You're not weak Harry, your one of the strongest guys I've ever met, crying doesn't mean your weak! Just let it all out."
This is how Ron found them Harry clinging to Hermione, and Hermione holding Harry comfortingly. Ron rolled his eyes and plopped down beside them.
"So how bout a game of wizard chess anyone?" Harry and Hermione detangled themselves and Harry volunteered to be slaughtered that night. "Hey you're getting better Harry." Harry rolled his eyes, "what you are! You just need more practice!" Ron said enthusiastically.
"Right, after 6 years! All hail on Potter king of getting a smidgen better in wizard chess!"
"You go first Harry." Ron said ignoring Harry's comment.
"Why? Why do I always go first? That's my downfall isn't it?" Harry said dramatically.
"Your white playing white Harry, white always goes first."
"Oh." Hermione smiled slightly and pulled out her homework.
A few games and a few hours later Hermione, Harry, and Ron went to bed.
"HERMIONE! Wake up Hermione! Come on Hermione wake up!" Someone yelled above Hermione shaking her,
"What? Screw off!" Hermione mumbled softly,
"Hermione come on!" Hermione finally opened her eyes and looked up to Ron's face, "Harry and Seamus they're gone!"
"What?" Hermione said now fully awake,
"I woke up after a really startling dream, spiders…" Ron shuddered, "and Harry was not in his bunk and I noticed Seamus's hangings were pulled back he wasn't in his bed either. So I checked Harry's trunk and the maurders map was still their which is even weirder since Harry always takes that if he goes somewhere and his invisibility cloak was also in his trunk." Ron added quietly so no one else would hear.
"Did you see Harry or Seamus on the map?"
"No! They aren't on Hogwarts premises."
"We need to go talk to Dumbledore right now!" Hermione said as she jumped up from her bed and grabbed a robe to cover her pj's. Hermione and Ron ran to Dumbledore's office,
"Acid Pops." The gargoyle opened and they stepped in, "Professor Dumbledore sir?" Hermione called soon he came out of a back door wearing a long blue robe touching the ground and a light blue nightcap with stars on it. Hermione looked at Ron, she hadn't expected him to be here so soon.
"What is it?"
"Harry and Seamus sir, They are both gone and we know for a fact that they aren't on Hogwarts premises." Hermione said quietly.
"Please go back to your common room immediately I will take care of this." Dumbledore said gravely over his shoulder as he went back into his room. Hermione looked worriedly at Ron as they rushed back to the common room,
"I can't bloody believe we here, we should be out there helping! Harry's our best mate after all!" Ron roared.
"Ron be quite don't wake up the whole house!" Hermione reprimanded, Ron glared at Hermione
"Don't you care? Don't you care what happened to Harry? He could be dead for all we know and your sitting their telling me to be quite!" Ron yelled even louder then before,
"Of course I care! Geez Ronald you not Harry's only friend you know that!" Hermione hissed.
"What going on?" A quite voice asked from the staircase, it was Ginny,
"Nothing Ginny go away!" Ron said harshly, Ginny sniffed in displeasure
"I do not enjoy being told what to do Ronald Albert Weasley!" Ron flinched at the use of his middle name,
"Albert?" Hermione giggled, Ron glared at her and then at Ginny. "Ron go get the map maybe Harry will be on it now." Ron glanced meaningfully at Ginny, "Go get it Ron." Ron sighed and went up the boy's dorm and came back with the map and opened it.
"What this?" Ginny asked looking over Ron's shoulder.
"A map but you can't tell anyone about it!" Ron said irritably. "Just look for Harry." Ron, Hermione, and Ginny searched the map but Harry's dot didn't appear anywhere just and Ron started to put it away Hermione squealed,
"Ron wait there just coming onto the map, oh and look Firenze it with him there in the forbidden forest."
"It looks like Harry is riding Firenze, maybe he's hurt." Ron suggested, "We should go and meet up with them!" Hermione looked skeptical, "oh come on Hermione you can't stay here while Harry might be hurt!"
"Well I suppose." Hermione said after a few minuets of thought,
"Ginny you stay here." Ron commanded, Ginny pouted but listened for once. Hermione and Ron raced out of the common room and to the entrance hall, totally forgetting about the invisibility cloak luckily they didn't run into any teachers.
"Look! There they are!" Hermione ran down the stone stairs and out onto the grounds with Ron hot on her heals, "Firenze! Harry!" The met up with the centaur
"Harry is not doing good, we need to get him to a hospital." Firenze said and continued on to Hogwarts, Ron and Hermione raced after him, just before they got to the doors Dumbledore, McGonagall, Snape, and Flitwick came running out,
"What happened?" McGonagall demanded. "Never mind we need to get Potter to the Hospital wing." The teachers took Harry and thanked Firenze before he galloped away. Hermione and Ron trailed the teachers as they quickly took Harry to Hospital wing.
"You two bed!" McGonagall said harshly when they tried to follow them into the room,
"No, Harry's our best mate we aren't leaving him!" Ron said. McGonagall glared at them and slamed the door in there face,
"Come on Ron we'll see him in the morning." Hermione pulled Ron away from the door he was trying to pry open.
"They locked it!" Ron said as Hermione dragged him away from the hospital wing.
Dear Diary March22Harry's in the Hospital Wing, I'm so worried about him, so is Ron, I only seen his face for a second but he didn't look good, I wonder what happened. Whatever it was it must have been a terrible ordeal and where's Seamus? I hope nothing happened to him! This is so scary, what if it has to do with Voldemort? If it is, then it has began just as Dumbledore said it would.
Love Hermione G
Authors Note: Another chapter done smiles proudly so how was it?
EponineWeasley: Sorry about Hermione being so out of character it's a bit AU I'm trying to get her back into character a little. But thanks for the review; glad you thought it was good otherwise. : )
