"You will not believe what Bo Lupin just did!" Ron said coming into the compartment that Harry was sharing with Neville and Rhia.
"What's that?" Harry asked. He watched as Ron sat next to Rhia. Hermione went to Harry and he wrapped his arms around her. Hermione giggled slightly.
"He just almost beat up Malfoy" She said. Rhia looked at Ron for confirmation.
"Yeah, just smacked him right in the nose." Ron said. He made his hand into a fist. "Just whack!" He punched the air. Hermione rolled her eyes.
"Isn't Bo Lupin dangerous?" Neville asked hesitantly.
"Are you joking?" Harry asked. "No, Bo isn't dangerous at all, what makes you think that?" Harry asked. A hint of defensiveness in his voice. Neville didn't look at Harry.
"Oh, no reason. It's just the stuff they say about him, you know him being a werewolf and all." Neville said quietly like he'd just said something incredibly bad.
"Oh no, he's one of the sweetest people you're ever likely to meet. He's so lovely." Rhia said. "He's just incredibly misunderstood. He's harmless, even during his transformations, he takes a potion for them." Neville glanced at Rhia and turned very slightly red.
"It's just that people say that-"
"He's killed someone?" Hermione asked.
"Ravages unicorns in the forbidden forest?" Ron asked.
"Wait, how about this one...remember the one where he eats young babies and as a human puts their bones into the Hogwarts food!" Harry said.
"I remember that one." Ron said. "Went into circulation two years ago, at the Triwizard tournament."
"That was such an awful thing that Rita Skeeter did to him." Hermione said with her arms crossed. "She completely ruined his life."
"Well, yeah she did...but he still punched Malfoy in the nose!" Ron said with a smile. Harry laughed.
"Remind me to congratulate him." Harry said. Neville smiled very slightly. Rhia sighed.
"I'm bored." She muttered.
"Why aren't you with Emma? Or Kara?" Hermione asked, letting Harry put an arm around her shoulders.
"Because Emma is mooning over Jason and Kara is probably getting of with Bo." Rhia said bitterly.
"What about that other girl..." Ron asked. "Um, Eric?"
"Erika." Rhia corrected. "She's got a boyfriend now." Rhia muttered. She slumped in her chair and crossed her arms. Harry looked away guiltily, he didn't know why he felt so guilty. He didn't exactly force Rhia to fall for him. Hermione shrugged and kissed Harry's cheek.
"First Hogsmeade weekend is probably at the end of September, you want to go anywhere?" She asked. Harry smiled.
"Where do you want to go?" Harry asked. Hermione shrugged. Neville looked at them
"Are you two-"
"A couple yes." Rhia finished for him, she sounded rather bitter about it. Hermione, though she did like Rhia, was beginning to get a little annoyed at Rhia's attitude to all of this.
"I'm sorry, Rhia, but if it annoys you that much then why do you hang around us?" Hermione said, her tone harsher then she intended it to be. Rhia looked at her then got up.
"Fine." She said. Rhia stepped out of the compartment and slammed the door shut. It bounced back slightly. Rhia leant against the wall, just so that the sixth year students couldn't see her.
"Hermione, do you have to be harsh on Rhia?" Harry asked.
"Sorry, I didn't mean to sound so...horrible." Hermione said with a frown.
"Well, it seemed like it." Ron muttered. "You know how she swoons over Harry." Ron said with a smirk. "Harry, I love you!" Ron said, pretending to be Rhia. Rhia scowled slightly.
"That's not funny." Harry said, but there was a smile playing on his face. "I think she really loves me. She's just jealous of Hermione." Harry said. He placed a kiss on Hermione's cheek.
"Are you sure you should be talking about Rhia like that?" Neville asked timidly.
"Oh, it's not like she'll know." Hermione said. "She's just being difficult, you know. Trying to stop me and Harry."
"Hmm." Harry said thoughtfully. "Yeah, she did seem to be a bit like that didn't she. But Hermione, try and be nicer to her. She's my god sister." Hermione sighed.
"Does that mean I have to be nice to Cho because she's Bo's cousin?" Hermione asked.
"Oh no." Harry said. Ron laughed. "Be as horrid as you want"
"She was a bit of a blubbery bird wasn't she?" Ron asked. Hermione looked at Ron with a raised eyebrow.
"Blubbery bird?" Hermione asked slowly.
"Oh, something that Fred and George were saying over the holidays." Ron muttered. "Pay no attention to me. I am not here." Ron said. He made himself smaller in his seat.
"Easy enough." Hermione joked. Ron threw a Bertie Bott Every Flavour Bean at Hermione. She ducked it and stuck her tongue out at Ron.
Rhia closed her eyes as she stood in the compartment. She didn't hear Emma coming up to her.
"Are you ok?" Emma asked with a frown. Rhia looked at Emma with a start.
"No." Rhia said. Emma scowled.
"Do you want to talk about it?" Emma asked. Rhia nodded and Emma led her to a compartment where Kara sat staring out of the window. Emma looked at Rhia.
"Bo just dumped her." Rhia whispered to Emma. Emma nodded and sat down. Kara glanced at them.
"You ok?" Emma asked.
"Yeah I'm fine I guess." Kara said. "So, what did you do?"
"Went to go and see Harry." Rhia said. Kara smirked at her.
"Anything happen?" Kara asked. Emma looked at Kara.
"Please! He's my brother!" Emma said.
"Yeah, so?" Kara asked
"He's tightly wrapped around Hermione's finger." Rhia said bitterly.
"You want to share?" Emma asked, pulling Rhia into a hug. Rhia put her head on Emma's shoulder before spilling everything out.
Jessie looked over to Kaylee, they were in their uniforms that were a little bit too big for them.
"I look stupid!" Kaylee said, holding out her arms as they walked onto the platform at Hogsmeade. Jessie looked at Kaylee with a bored expression. "No you do not look worse then me!" Jessie rolled her eyes and turned to where Hagrid stood towering over them. His big bushy beard and beetle black eyes looking down at them. He grinned under his mass of beard.
"'Ello girls."
"Hagrid!" Kaylee cried as both Jessie and Kaylee threw their arms around one of Hagrid's legs each. Hagrid's body shook with laughter
"Alrigh'. Get off so I can call yeh Classmates." He said.
"Ok." Kaylee said. She took Jessie's hand and looked at the sea of students.
"FIRS' YEARS THIS WAY!" His voice boomed. Jessie grinned. They loved Hagrid, they didn't see him very often but he was by far the coolest person that Kaylee and Jessie had ever met. A few smaller, shier students pushed their way through the crowd. Hagrid stood there counting them then turned away, off the platform. Kaylee and Jessie were in the front.
"How are the blast Ended Screwts?" Kaylee asked. Hagrid laughed.
"Don' have any." He said.
"What about..." Kaylee looked at Jessie then lowered her voice. "How about Grawp?" Hagrid looked down at them.
"Come visit me next weekend and I'll tell yeh all bou' him." Hagrid said.
"Yeah!" Kaylee said jumping in the air. Jessie was grinning and pulled Kaylee down. Kaylee looked at Jessie then at Hagrid. "Where's your house?"
"I'll show yeh tomorrow." Hagrid said. He turned around and instructed the students to pile into the boats. Four to a boat. Jessie and Kaylee got into a boat with two shy looking boys. Jessie and Kaylee looked at each other, having a small argument in their heads. No they weren't Muggle born, yes they were. Just ask, ok!
"Are you Muggles?" Kaylee asked.
"What are Muggles?" One of the boys asked. Jessie and Kaylee looked at each other.
"They're Muggles" Kaylee said with a grin. Jessie nodded and turned to face forwards. The castle of Hogwarts loomed above them. Jessie and Kaylee's mouths fell open.
"Wow." Jessie gasped. Their expression soon turned into grins.
"Look!" Someone shouted as they pointed to the lake. Everyone looked in to see a large pale pink thing swimming under them.
"The giant squid!" A girl shouted. Jessie and Kaylee immediately looked over the edge of the boat. Jessie stuck her hand into the water and felt something slimy against it. She giggled and turned to Kaylee.
"Cool." Kaylee said. She reached in, the squid wrapped a tentacle around Kaylee's wrist. Her eyes widened slightly. "AH!" She screamed as the squid pulled her in.
"Kaylee!" Jessie shouted. Hagrid turned around quickly. Kaylee emerged from the water laughing.
"That was fun!" She shouted.
"Kaylee, get back into yeh boat!" Hagrid said.
"But it's warm!" Kaylee said. She was suddenly pushed out of the boat by three large tentacles. The first years all screamed as Kaylee was placed back into the boat. Jessie grinned. Hagrid sighed and rolled his eyes
"Wai' till yeh parents hear bou' this." He muttered.
Emma held a pencil in her hand and wrote down a few chords to the new lyrics in Rhia's note book.
"This is going to be a wicked song!" Emma said. Orion scooted over.
"What is it?" Orion asked.
"The song Rhia just wrote." Kara said.
"Oh, can I sing."
"No!" The three girls said.
"Oh, why not?" Orion asked.
"Because your voice is breaking and you'll sound all weird." Rhia muttered. She was looking down the table to where Harry was sitting.
"Who's singing them?" Orion asked.
"Rhia probably." Kara muttered. "No, G-major chord." She said. Emma looked at her rather annoyed.
"I think it'll sound better like this." Emma said. "What do you think Rhia?"
"Hm?" Rhia asked, looking to Emma and Kara. The girls looked at each other.
"Never mind." Kara said, "Lets see...You've got your dumb friends, I know what they say. They say that I'm difficult but so are they." Kara looked at it. "How do you come up with this?"
"I don't know." Rhia muttered. The doors to the great hall opened and a procession of first years came in. She noticed her youngest sister wrapped up in a cloak, her hair dripping and she was bouncing lightly on her feet. Kaylee looked over to Rhia.
"Got pushed into the lake." Kaylee mouthed. "It was really fun." Rhia rolled her eyes and put her face in her hands. Kaylee grinned and started laughing with Jessie.
"They are so embarrassing!" Rhia muttered.
"Nah, they're cute." Kara said with a forced happy tone. They turned to listen to the sorting. After the Sorting hat song, a similar song to last year the first students went up.
"Black, Jessica." Said McGonagall. Jessie skipped to the stool and sat on it. She let McGonagall place the hat over her head. It took less then a few seconds for the hat to shout-
"GRYFFINDOR!" Jessie grinned and ran to the Gryffindor table where Hermione made Ron move down slightly to make space for her.
"Black, Kaylee" McGonagall said. Kaylee dropped the cloak and ran to the stool.
"Come on, be in Gryffindor" Emma muttered. The hat had barely touched her head when it shouted-
"GRYFFINDOR!" There was a cheer from the Gryffindors as Kaylee ran to the table. She sat next to Rhia.
"Hello big sister." She said with a quirky grin.
"Oh no!" Rhia muttered. Kaylee laughed.
"You love me lots really." Kaylee said.
"Sure we do." Emma said with a grin. The rest of the sorting ceremony passed quickly. Kaylee had quickly figured out a way of trying to bug Rhia. Every time that Rhia tried to pay attention to Dumbledore Kaylee poked her. Dumbledore seemed to be watching the two sisters in amusement.
"-I see that some of our younger students are getting impatient, so I will say this quickly. Eat up!" He said. He spread out his arms and the plates filled with food.
"Wicked!" Kaylee said. She reached for some food.
"At last! Something to keep you busy!" Rhia muttered. Kaylee grinned at Rhia. "Don't even say anything. Just eat Kaylee." Rhia said. Kaylee nodded and attacked her plate.
"Ok, got the chords!" Emma said triumphantly. She threw the notepad to Rhia, who read over them.
"Yeah, this should do." Rhia said, "Kaylee, cut it out!" Rhia snapped, grabbing hold of Kaylee's hands. Kaylee smiled innocently and turned to Jessie, who was smiling at something Hermione had said to her.
"As soon as we can we get to the room of requirement for rehearsal." Emma said. The others all nodded.
Hermione couldn't believe they had to start patrols on the night they got to school! Ron was dragging his feet as he walked next to Hermione.
"I want to sleep." He muttered.
"So do I." Hermione said. They walked for a few moments in silence, according to McGonagall they were going up the security, which meant more patrols for the Prefects. The Teachers would be seen more often and doors and windows were going to be locked. Dumbledore wasn't taking any chances this year!
"I'm bored." Ron muttered. Hermione rolled her eyes at Ron's comment.
"It's patrol, what do you expect?" Hermione said. "If it was fun then that would defeat the whole object of patrol!" Hermione joked.
"Oh, right ok." Ron said. He glanced around. "Well no one here, lets go-" Hermione grabbed Ron's arm and pulled him after her.
"Ron, we have to patrol, it's our job as prefect." Hermione said in her know-it-all voice. Ron mimicked her behind her back.
"So, heard from Vicky?" Ron asked with a smirk. Hermione rolled her eyes again. "I know, I know, you're dating Harry now, but you heard from him? You even told him?" Ron asked. A mischievous glint in his eyes.
"No I haven't told him and there's no need for Viktor to know about me and Harry." Hermione said.
"What if he tries to get you again, Vicky will crushed!" Ron said. Hermione looked at Ron tiredly.
"Will you ever give up on that?" Hermione asked.
"Maybe." Ron said, "Possibly...no" He answered. They walked in silence again before Hermione stopped. Ron looked at her curiously.
"What is it?" Ron asked.
"I didn't want to bring this up in front of Harry but..." Hermione bit her lip, "But do you think that Jenny Lupin could be a death eater?" Hermione asked in a hushed voice.
"Um, I don't know." Ron said slightly perplexed. "I guess she could but the likelihood of her being a Death Eater is the same as you being Death Eater."
"Hm, I suppose but I don't know. She's never around and every so often she rubbed her arm. Where the dark mark would be if she was a Death Eater." Hermione said.
"Well, yeah you have a point." Ron said.
"And in Harry's dream, he saw Jenny, I don't want to accuse people but-"
"But everything seems to point to Jenny being a Death Eater." Ron finished. Hermione nodded. "I've been sort of thinking the same thing. We might have another scab-Wormtail on our hands, but only a girl." Ron said. They started walking again towards the main hall.
"And another thing." Hermione said with a frown, "Do you think Rhia is a threat?" She asked. Ron had to try and stifle a laugh.
"What?" He asked.
"You know, to me and Harry?" Hermione asked.
"Sure Rhia loves Harry, she always has loved him but she isn't a threat." Ron said.
"Yeah, when people say she's always loved him, exactly how long has he loved him?" Hermione asked, looking at Ron for an answer. Ron shrugged.
"Don't know. Emma and Ginny tell me since she was about eight or nine but I don't know." Ron said. "Don't worry about Rhia. Harry is all yours. Just don't hurt him by seeing Vicky." Hermione hit Ron and started walking slightly faster. "Oh come on, you know I'm joking!" Ron called after her. Ron ran after her. They went down another hall and past where the Room of Requirement was. They decided to take a quick look in it and walked past the door three times. The door appeared from no where, Hermione pushed the door open to find several instruments in the room but no one there. She sighed and went in.
"Emma, Rhia, Kara, Orion, out!" She called.
"We're not here." Came Orion's voice.
"Orion!" Emma snapped. Emma appeared from behind a sofa. "Merlin, we told you not to say anything!" Hermione and Ron looked at her with an amused look. Rhia and Kara seemed to appear from nowhere. Orion was obviously behind the drum kit as something kept hitting the bass drum.
"Do you know what time it is?" Hermione asked.
"Um...eleven." Orion said from behind the drum kit. "Two hours after our curfew."
"Were you born an idiot?" Rhia asked Orion.
"No." Orion said, "But dad dropped me a few times when we were little." Orion jumped to his feet.
"Detention all of you." Ron said trying to stifle his laughs. They all moaned.
"Do you have to give us detention?" Kara asked
"You're the ones out after curfew." Ron said.
"So are you." Emma retorted.
"We're supposed to be out. Now go back to the common room before you get into more trouble." Hermione said. Kara and Rhia both looked to Emma.
"What?" Emma asked. Orion grinned.
"Get us out of this!" Orion said.
"What, no!" Emma said. Hermione and Ron looked at each other slightly confused.
"Come on guys, I saw Malfoy coming this way." Ron said. They all reluctantly left the room. Rhia and Kara muttering stuff to Emma. Emma had a frown and glanced at Ron and gave a look like she was going to regret what she was about to do.
"You two owe me." Hermione heard her mutter. Hermione looked at Emma as Emma left the room last. Ron closed the door and they trooped to the common room. He was walking at the back, Emma just ahead of him. Hermione was talking to Orion, who decided to argue with her about S.P.E.W. Emma dropped back and linked arms with Ron.
"Hi." Ron said uncertainly.
"Hey." She said with a stunning smile. Ron frowned at her.
"What do you want?" Ron asked.
"What makes you think I want anything?" Emma said, "I just want to walk with my brother's best friend." Even Ron knew that wasn't true. He let it pass and walked in silence. He felt Emma's arm let go of his arm and then suddenly it was on his bum. Ron jumped slightly.
"No, Emma. No!" Ron said. Emma gave him an innocent smile that fooled everyone. A lovely skill she'd acquired from her mum.
"What?" she asked.
"No...no flirting or anything like that!" Ron said. "You're Harry's sister!" Ron said.
"Yeah so?" Emma asked. Ron glanced to Hermione but the others had all gone into the portrait hole. Ron quickly followed them. Emma let out a slightly frustrated breath. She'd never tried this on Ron, she never wanted to but if it got her out of detention...she couldn't ruin her perfect record. In the common room Orion ran up the stairs, leaving a rather annoyed looking Hermione.
"Night Hermione." Ron said.
"Night Ron. Are you staying down here?" Hermione asked. Ron shrugged. Hermione nodded and went up the stairs. Kara and Rhia had already gone up. The portrait hole closed and Emma went straight to Ron, she grabbed the front of his shirt and pulled him into a kiss.
"Wha-" Ron managed to say before he felt Emma's lips on his. He'd never kissed anyone before. He was actually starting to like it. Emma made the kiss urgent and slowly pushed Ron towards the Sofa.
"Emma what are you doing?" Ron gasped as he fell back on the sofa. Emma straddled him and pulled all her hair over one shoulder.
"Do you really want to give us a detention?" Emma asked, she kissed Ron's neck and began to undo his shirt slightly so she could get to his shoulder.
"What...um..." Ron closed his eyes for a moment. "No...yes..." Ron managed to say. Emma kissed Ron's lips again. Her hands went to the bottom of his shirt as she pulled it out of his trousers. She made sure he could feel various parts of her that Ron would never ever had even tried to touch.
"Yes or no?" Emma whispered. Her breath tickled Ron's skin.
"Um...no." Ron said nervously. Emma gave him a grin and kissed his cheek.
"I'll see you tomorrow." She said, jumping off the sofa and heading up the stairs to the girls dormitories. Ron sat on the sofa utterly confused. What had just happened? Emma had...but she hadn't...Harry was going to hear about this! Ron decided.
Emma walked into the room she shared with Rhia, Kara, Erika and a girl called Michelle. She closed the door and immediately wiped her mouth.
"Ew, ew, ew, ew. I just kissed Ron, ew!" Emma said frantically. Kara and Rhia pulled Emma to the bed.
"Did it work though?" Kara asked. Emma nodded. Kara and Rhia grinned.
"Brilliant! No detention!" Rhia said. "But you really didn't have to do that." She added with a frown.
"Has anyone got any mouthwash?" Emma muttered. Erika laughed from the other side of the room.
"Is Ron really that repulsive?" Erika asked.
"No, he's really cute...it's just he's like my brother." Emma said. Michelle, a girl with long brown hair and sparkling light brown eyes threw Emma a bottle of blue liquid. Michelle was a muggle born like Kara. "Thank you." Emma said. Rhia and Kara both started laughing.
"Not our fault you're the hottest girl out of everyone here." Kara said innocently.
"Amen to that." Erika said as she got into the bed. Emma glared at them all and got into bed.
"Good night all of you." Emma said angrily. Rhia sighed and lay down next to Emma.
"You know you love us all." Rhia said. Emma's eyes narrowed as she looked at Rhia. Rhia pulled a face at Emma. Emma's expression softened slightly.
"Good night Rhia." Emma said very slowly.
"Thank god it wasn't Harry that caught us." Kara muttered.
"Why?" Rhia asked as she lifted herself on her elbows.
"Then we wouldn't be able to use Emma." Kara said.
"We'd have to use you, my little pumpkin!" Emma said like Rhia was a child. Rhia's smile faltered.
"He doesn't like me that way." Rhia said. "And I'm not the pumpkin, you're the one with red hair Emma!" Michelle and Erika burst out into laughter.
"Don't mind us." Michelle said as the other three looked at them.
Next morning at breakfast Harry looked at Ron over the table. Ron had been very quiet and he had a frown on his face. Harry looked at Hermione.
"Do you think he's alright?" Harry asked.
"Of course he isn't alright." Hermione said. She lifted a goblet of pumpkin juice to her mouth.
"Oh right." Harry turned to Ron. "You ok?" Ron nodded then shook his head.
"Can a guy get raped?" He asked. Hermione, who had been in the middle of drinking nearly choked on the drink.
"Excuse me?" Harry and Hermione both asked. Ron frowned.
"I think...I'm not sure, but I think I was nearly raped by your sister last night." Ron said. "All to get out of a detention." He looked more then confused.
"You didn't let her off did you?" Hermione asked.
"Um...yes?" Ron asked. Hermione sighed.
"Ron!"
"What were they doing last night?" Harry asked.
"Rehearsing really late." Hermione said. "Ron, I can't believe you let them off." Ron scowled slightly.
"But she's a really good kisser! I couldn't say no to her!" Ron said.
"Yes you could, I could." Hermione said.
"That's cause you're a girl." Ron said.
"Is that supposed to mean anything?" Hermione asked.
"Yes. Emma doesn't hold power over you like she does over the Male population at this school. What Emma wants, Emma gets because she's...sexy!" Ron said. Harry cleared his throat. He didn't feel comfortable with this conversation at all. They were talking about his sister in a way he didn't like.
"Can we not talk about Emma?" Harry asked.
"Sure." Hermione said. "What's our first lesson?" She asked.
"Potions." Harry muttered. "With Slytherins." He grumbled. Ron smirked.
"What?" Hermione asked.
"I'm not taking potions this year." He said.
"That's so unfair!" Harry said.
"I don't want to be an auror." Ron said, "Well I did but I don't think I could manage it." Ron said. Harry grumbled as he attacked his piece of bacon.
"This is discrimination!" Harry muttered. Hermione laughed gently.
"I'm taking potions this year, so you won't be alone." She said, kissing his cheek. Harry smiled slightly and looked at Hermione.
"Yes!" He said, he put his arm around Hermione's shoulders. "So, you know how we're dating now?" Hermione looked at Harry very amused.
"Yes." She asked, trying not to laugh.
"Well, do you think this year, I can copy your work?" Harry asked, trying to put on a dashing smile but he couldn't pull it off as well as his dad, or even Emma. Hermione looked like she was thinking.
"No chance." Hermione said as she kissed Harry quickly on the lips. Harry started grumbling again as he attacked his toast this time.
