N/A: Keep in mind that this is my first fan fiction and I wrote it in grade 7
* * *
The next morning Ron and Harry woke up and went down stairs to the common room. Hermione was already there. She was sitting on the couch reading "History of Magic grade 7".
"Hello," said Hermione sounding a little concerned and trying to be cheerful. "Professor McGonagall came here just before you woke up and handed me this." She gave a piece of paper to them to read.
Ron read, "You will be serving detention at 10:00 p.m. tonight. Meet Hagrid in the entrance hall at 9:50 sharp."
"You don't think we're going into the Forbidden Forest again, do you?" worried Harry remembering their detention they had with Hagrid in their first year though Ron was at the hospital wing at the time (he got bitten by Hagrids baby dragon Norbert).
"I certainly hope not," Hermione shivered at the thought.

After supper in the Great Hall Ron, Harry and Hermione went up to the Gryffindor
common room to wait till their detention.
When 9:40 came they decided to leave the empty common room.
When they got to the entrance hall Hermione looked at her watch. They were two minutes early.
"Maybe for detention Hagrid will want us to clean Fang, he's overdue for a bath or worse, Hagrid will have us clean up Fang's messes!" said a disgusted Ron.
"Nope, not quite," said a voice.
It was Hagrid.
"Hi Hagrid," said Harry trying to sound cheerful.
" 'ello, you three will be 'elping me look in the Forbidden Forest for dragon footsteps, an' dung, an' anything that proves that there are dragons in the forest," Hagrid trailed off.
"What are you going on about Hagrid?" Hermione asked.
"Well according to Bane, Ronan and Firenze. They said that some welsh-green dragons were moping about in the Forbidden Forest."
"But that's really dangerous. I mean they could stomp out of the Forbidden Forest at any time," Ron's fear was obvious. "And, now that we're going to look for them-"
"-We're not looking for 'em, we're looking for signs that dragons are actually wondering round there, now if you three don' mind we better start yer detention."
They walked out of the Entrance Hall and into the grounds. When they stopped in front of the forest Hagrid turned to them and said, "Now you three stay close to me. If you see anything at all, just tell me, don' keep it to yer selves. Fang will stay in front of us. I have my crossbow in case something happens."
Ron gulped.
They entered the forest and kept on walking and walking for what seemed like an hour.
Hagrid stopped and told them that he saw a dragon footprint.
"There really are dragons in here!" Hagrid was so exicited he was jumping up and down managing to shake the ground where they all stood.
Harry, Ron and Hermione knew why Hagrid was acting this way. Hagrid would give any thing to own a dragon. He adored them!
"RUFF, RUFF!" Fang barked, while sniffing very hard he ran out of sight.
"OH NO! You three stay here do NOT move, I'll be right back. Got to go get Fang," said Hagrid and ran after Fang.
"Well what if we see a dragon while Hagrid's gone?" said Hermione scared at the thought.
"Let's just hope that doesn't happen!" muttered Harry.
At that moment Ron screamed and Harry's scar started to burn like crazy. Harry and Hermione looked at what he was screaming at.
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!" Hermione screamed.
But Harry still didn't know what they were screaming at though he had a feeling that he knew. His scar only burned when either danger was near him, Voldemort killed someone or when Voldemort was near. OH NO! Was it Voldemort they saw?
"What is it?"
"YOU-KNOW-WHO!"
