A/N : I spent a whole day talking about Harry Potter with some friends and I ended up
having one weird hell of a weird dream about it. My cousin convinced me that the
dream was interesting so I decided to turn it in a fan fic. So be warned! This is
my first Harry Potter fan fic and I never finished the dream.
Some things you should know. I lost my copy of the fifth book which I only read
once so I might change up a few things in the story line. This fan fic is based on my
version of the sixth book, but it deals more with Harry and not really the whole war
thing (I just loveeee Harrrrrrryyyyyyyyyy). Anyway with all that out of the way I
hope my fic doesn't bore you to death. This story starts at Hogwarts, I don't
really like the Dursleys and probably would have killed them off if I had to write
about them (wouldn't we all).
Plz R & R and if anyone wants to email me with respects to what really happened in the fifth book, it would be highly appreciated.
Harry sat in his usual set at the Gryffindor table, everyone was eating and having a good time. Even the Slytherin table was enjoying themselves, well everyone except Draco Malfoy. Harry couldn't help but wonder what had Malfoy so down. As if Ron had heard his thoughts, the boy looked at Harry and then at Malfoy who seemed to be trying to stare a hole through the Slytherin table.
"He's probably worried that the Ministry of Magic is going to finally realize that his father is a Death Eater and throw him in Azkaban for supporting 'you know who'." Ron bluntly said.
"I don't think that's the problem Ron, he's always known that that might happen. I think it's something else." Harry replied.
"Do you think it has anything to do with 'you know who's plans?" Ron asked with a worried expression on his face.
"Maybe, but I can't help but think that it has nothing to do with Voldemort."
Ron flinched at hearing the name. "Come on Harry, why are you bothering with why Malfoy's sad? He deserves what ever has happened to him. You think that he would bloody care if you were the one that was sad. He'd probably try to find out why just so that he could use it against you."
"You're probably right Ron"
Hermione, who just finished telling Neville how her summer was, brought her attention back to her two best friends. "I think we should all take an early bed, our first class is 9 tomorrow."
"It figures that you already memorized the time table?"
"Well Ronald, one of us has to be responsible"
"I am responsible, jus not obsessed with school work like you!"
"Well excuse me for being a good student. Honestly, I don't know what Professor Dumbledore was thinking putting you as a prefect"
"Would you two quit it? It's only the first day and already you're fighting."
"Humph!" Both of his friends chorused while turning their heads in the opposite direction from one anther. He could believe that his two best friends could be so dense. If they both just admitted there feelings for one another then he wouldn't have to always stop them from killing each other.
"Well anyway I'm going to head up. Some of us have to prepare before class" Hermione said while giving Ron her death glare.
"And some of us want to enjoy the night before classes begin. But you wouldn't know anything like that, only people with lives do." Ron shot back giving Hermione the same glare.
"Why you….."
"What's our first class Hermione?" Harry cut in to avoid yet another fight.
"Potions"
"Bloody hell! Snape first thing for the school year!"
"Language Ronald!" Hermione said using the motherly voice that she always used when she corrected Ron about his swearing.
"Well I guess Hermione's right Ron, we should get to bed early. God alone knows we'll need the extra energy for Snape."
"You'll need more than extra energy for my class tomorrow Mr. Potter" Out of nowhere, pops out Snape who apparently overheard some of their conversation.
"Five points from Gryffindor for not addressing a teacher properly. And I do think you should take Ms. Granger's advice. You'll not be excused for waking up late." With that Snape walked over to the Slytherin table.
"Well we should go" Harry said. He couldn't help but glimpse Malfoy to see if the boy's mood had changed. "Do you think that something happened to his dad?"
"Well if so we should be happy. His father is one of the people trying to kill you"
"Even so Ron Harry's right, Malfoy may know something important"
They began their journey to the Gryffindor common room where Ron and Harry said goodnight to Hermione before heading to their own room, and going to sleep.
"Why does it have to be Snape's class that we have first thing at the start of our school year?" Ron groaned.
"Knowing him he asked Professor Dumbledore for it to be so" Harry replied as they walked towards the Potions classroom.
"Either that or the staff is trying to torture us" Ron stated while they entered the classroom. They both went and sit by Hermione who was already there saving them seats.
"Harry have you noticed that Malfoy is still looking down?"
Harry turn to watch the blond haired boy who was sitting in the back not paying any attention to his fellow Slytherin friends who were talking.
Bang! Both doors slammed against the wall as their Potions teacher, Professor Snape entered the classroom.
"All students are to form to lines and head towards the main hall." Snape ordered them.
"What for sir?" Dean, a student from the Gryffindor house asked him.
"Not that it's any of your business but Professor Dumbledore wants to have a word with the school"
As everyone was lining up, Seamus another Gryffindor student came up to where Harry, Ron and Hermione were and asked. "Did you guys hear the news?"
"News? What news?" Hermione inquired while keeping her gaze on the moving line.
"I can't believe you didn't hear, I mean it was all over the Daily Prophet"
"No we came here straight from the common room"
"'You Know Who' had another raid yesterday"
"That's terrible did anyone get hurt" Ron immediately asked.
"A few students were injured but luckily no one was killed."
"Wait. Students?"
"Yeah the place that they raided was Senity Royal"
"Senity Royal?"
"Honestly Ronald, don't you know anything. Senity Royal is a magic school in one of the islands in the Caribbean. It's supposed to be a school for the children of rich and popular people. It's protected almost as well as Hogwarts."
"Why would Voldemort attack there?" Everyone except Hermione flinched on hearing the name.
"I guess we're going to find out." Ron added while they entered the main room and sat at the Gryffindor table.
"I'm sorry to have to interrupt classes but there is something extremely important that I must inform you about." Professor Dumbledore said, watching the students as the room came to extreme silence.
A/N: Well that was the first chapter. I promise that I'll get better. Plz R & R, any suggestion are welcome.
Hope you enjoyed!
