School Showdown

Hello

By Evanescence

Playground school bell rings again

Rain clouds come to play again

Has no one told you she's not breathing?

Hello I'm your mind giving you

Someone to talk to

Hello

If I smile and don't believe

Soon I'll know I'll wake from this dream

Don't try to fix me I'm not broken

Hello I'm the lie living for you so you can hide

Don't cry

Suddenly I know I'm not sleeping

Hello I'm still here

All that's left of yesterday

Summer was always my favorite holiday. The one season a year I could see my sister Marz. Sure Marz was an odd name for a girl but then that was fine with me I loved her to death. My name is Hermione Granger. My sister and I are as different as night is to day.

Marz and I have one thing in common we love to sing and were in a band at one time. There were a few of us there was Marz, Ikris, Jarral, Acid, and Kedrel. Marz and I were the lead singers well more Marz then me. But near seven years ago I had to leave the band because we found out I was a witch. Marz is a little scared of me but she won't show it because she hates any from of weakness.

This year at my school I was made head girl. This means that I am in charge of making sure the school runs smoothly. One thing good about this year is the sixth and seventh years are going on a trip to one of our sister schools we just don't know what one yet. I don't care where we go just as long as Draco Malfoy doesn't have to come.

Malfoy and I have hated each other from the get go. I also hope he isn't the head boy. I know that Ron or Harry isn't they told me so themselves. Malfoy is the most insensitive person on earth other then his father and you-know-who. I think Malfoy does have a heart but he just hides it to protect himself from something or someone.

Harry and Ron are my two best friends in the world other then Daylayn. Harry is the only survivor of an attack on his home back when he was a baby because of this he was forced to live with his aunt and uncle who hate him.

Harry looks just like his dad did but only with his mother's eyes. Harry was about six foot with unruly black hair. He wasn't thin but he wasn't fat he was built. Not that I would ever date him but many of the girls here would and have. If you couldn't tell I'm still at school for the last day until summer holidays.

Ron is just the opposite of Harry family wise. In looks they looked just like brothers only Ron is a bit taller then Harry and not as built. Ron has his family trait flaming red hair and green eyes. Everyone now a day has green eyes or so it seams. Well not everyone just all the people I hangout with.

Now this Daylayn I mentioned earlier he was my best friend at my old school just like he is Marz best friend as well. He goes to my old school Helamtion Hills high. Day is over six foot tall with short blonde hair and blue eyes. He is perfectly built and is the school player. He was a great singer but he just refused to join the band that was fine with everyone.

Okay now that I told you about my friends a little about me. I'm just over five foot. Really thin a lot from missing meals to sit and read. I have the best grades in school. I have chocolate brown hair that falls to the middle of my back but its vary frizzy so it doesn't look that good. I have brown eyes that look just like my hair. If you ever want to find me out of class I'm reading in the library or patrolling the halls most of the time its with Malfoy Gags.

'Herms it's dinner time and if we don't go I think Ron is going to end up eating to chair he is sitting on or even himself!' Ron always thought with his stomach but I think it's a male thing I will never get.

'Alright Harry I'm on my way!' I had to yell because Lavender had her music up as high as it could go which actually made it hard for me to hear Harry in the first place. The poor boy couldn't come in to my dorms to get me where as I could go in his.

Slowly I pushed myself off my bed to go to dinner. All I really wanted to do was read this book Marz sent me it was about this boy who was beaten by his mother while his brothers were loved it was called a Child Called It. Its based on a true story and the man that wrote it lived it. There were many times I had to stop to cry. It reminded me of Marz.

I dropped my book on my bed and ran down stairs to find Harry sitting in his chair looking petrified. I turned to find Ron staring at Harry and drooling. And I don't mean little drops it was gross. 'Ron come on lets go eat and stop staring at Harry like your going to eat him.' Ron flew off his seat and ran to the door. Who ever said that Ron was slow didn't know him when it came to food. I looked at Harry and he shrugged at me before we left.

'Herms what were you reading that you were so engrossed in?' Harry asked I know he doesn't always like the fact I read so much but he has gotten used to it.

'It was book called Child Called It. It is so sad. My sister sent it to me she told me it was but I didn't realize how sad. I had to stop so many times to cry.' I looked at Harry but he kept staring ahead and he stopped smiling suddenly as we turned the final corner to the great hall. There was Malfoy picking on some first year that was near tears. 'Malfoy leave her alone you should know better as a prefect you should set an example! Ten points from Slytherin.'

Everyone in Malfoy's group turned to stare at me it was a common fact that the Slytherins hated me so I didn't care. 'You better watch your back you stupid Mudblood your time will come.' Malfoy said with his usual smirk.

'That would scare me if I didn't hear it from you every week so enjoy your meal and don't forget to choke! Ladies and gentlemen adieu.' With that Harry and I went in the great hall to find Ron sitting and the table stuffing is face full of food. With the rate he was shoving it in I was unsure how it could all fit and when was the last time he ate. Harry and I sat on either side of Ron and pulled food on to our plates. Good thing no matter how hungry Harry is he never shoves food in like Ron does.

'Dude Ron you missed Herms just laid Malfoy out using manners! It was sweet cause he was so taken back by it!' Ron actually stopped putting food in his mouth and looked at me. All I could do was nod.

'Great job Herms! I wish I could have been there to see that!' Ron's mouth was still half full so food went flying everywhere it was so gross.

'Ron swallow before you talk seeing your food is gross.' All Ron did was nod. Sometimes I didn't understand how he ended up not having manners where everyone else in his family did. Well Fred and George didn't but that I could understand. I mean they are the biggest pranksters in the school or that was in school.

Once last year I had to help Filch in his office and he had a whole filing cabinet on the twins alone. The twins could be so bad that Peeves looked up to them. I guess they are like that so that they can get some attention drawn to them after all they are only two of seven kids. The poor boys were always compared to the older boys. I used to wonder what it was like living in a big family but not any more sometimes in the summer I would live with them but not this year.

This year Harry and Ron are coming to stay at my house and they can meet Marz. My family is small its just me, my mom, my dad, and Marz. When I was younger I used to wish for a big family but not any more I love it the way it is. But two years ago I found out Marz and I were adopted. We are really sisters but our parents aren't our real parents but good friends of our real mother. The scariest part is I'm a pureblood witch not a Mudblood like we first thought.

The rest of dinner passed by uneventful thank heavens I don't think I can take to much excitement. With everything going on tomorrow I don't think I could take too much tonight. After dinner I went back to the common room with the boys were playing wizards chess and just watched them for awhile before I went up to my room to finish packing my trunks.

I don't know when I fell asleep but I must have because next thing I knew Lavender was shaking me. She kept saying something about the train leaving soon. That's when I remembered that today I got to go home for the summer. I thanked Lavender as I slowly sat up in my bed good thing was I had already packed everything except what I was going to wear and what I was wearing.

Before heading down to breakfast I changed in to a pair of hip hugging jeans with a purple spaghetti tank top that said 'Cuttie' on it. When I went down stairs Harry was there. When I asked where Ron was Harry said he was at breakfast where else? Harry and I walked down to the great hall in silence.

When we go the great hall Ron was the only one at our table either everyone else had already eaten or they were coming later. I wasn't worried I was hungry. I sat next to Ron and Harry was on my other side. All I had was some toast with jelly and an omelet. The omelet was one of my favorites it was bacon and cheese. It is an odd choice but good.

All of a sudden everyone from every house entered the great hall. The one thing I hate about crowded halls is how loud things can get suddenly. Harry was trying to say something to me but I couldn't hear him at all. I asked him what and he couldn't hear me either.

Just when I thought my eardrums were about to burst Dumbledore stood up and everyone stopped talking. It was like a silencing charm was casted over all the students. 'A few words before you leave. I would I like to thank you for making this year most enjoyable for not only myself but for our teachers. Next years head boy and girl have been chosen. They are Hermione Granger and Draco Malfoy. Congratulations to both of you.

'Next year our year six and sevens will be going on a trip to one of our sister schools. You will all receive a permission slip when you get your class list. I do ask that you set a good example. During that time two fifth year students have been chosen as action head boy and girl they are Justin Cranch and Leeva Sinngleton. Congratulations to you two as well. Now be gone for the train is waiting to take you back enjoy your summer and farewell our new graduates.'

With that everyone was leaving the great hall some for the final time well others were looking forward to their come back. Me I was looking forward to seeing Marz.

Marz P.O.V

'Mom I'm home but I can't stay!' The house was empty which was odd but that's when I remembered Hermes was coming home today. Darn schools have to come home on the same day how could they do this to me. I had to talk to mom before Hermes got home with her friends. Most of the summer I would have the house to myself but this year Hermes was bringing two of her friends home to stay the summer.

Hermes and I look nothing alike it makes it hard to believe we are twins but we are. I'm five foot six with long black hair (or so Hermes thinks I got it cut last week now its up to my shoulders) purple eyes that change color with my mood. That can be a bit scary at night because sometimes they seem to glow. I'm real thin but I have all the features a guy wants in a woman. I have the curvy hips and big breast but I don't really care about that. My dad always tells me I have a face that can stop anyone in his or her tracks. How right is he. I am the most popular girl in my school or person for that matter.

I was going to wait for mom and dad but I found a note that they left me on the counter.

To my dearest Marz

Your father and I went to go get Hermione and her friends from Kings Cross Train Station. We will be gone for some time and the staff has the day off but in the frig Mrs. Sings left some Roast enjoy it I am unsure how late we will be but you will probably be in bed by time we get home if you want you can invite Day to stay the summer here but I don't think his parents would allow it. So if you want you can stay there as well

Hugs and kisses

Mom

Well that won't help me with my problem fully but mostly. You see two weeks ago there was a death eaters attack and a family was killed that family was my friend Daylayn's all that is left is him, his brother, and his baby sister. I feel sorry for his sister because she will never know her parents.

I was going to call mom on her cell but before I could pick up the phone it rang. Talk about timing. When I answered it was mom.

'Hello

Hello Hun I wanted to make sure you got home safely.

Yes mom I had no problems other then the fact the car caused a stir where are you at?

We're at Kings Cross Train Station your sister should be here in about a half hour. Why don't you come meet us down here?

Sure mom but I need to ask you something. Day's parents were killed two weeks ago is it okay if he and his younger brother and sister stay with us? I can understand if you don't want them here

Oh dear that is sad to hear his parents were such good friends of ours sure they can stay after all I am his godmother but I didn't know they had a little girl.

She was born a few days before they died so they couldn't tell anyone about her birth.

Well Hun I have to go your dad is getting antsy his work is exposed to call soon but he sends his love too. Oh Hun are you coming?

Yes mom I should be there soon okay? Love you.

Bye love.'

Well that went well I thought I was going to have to talk her in to it the hard way. Calmly I hung up the phone well that is one call I don't have to make. I decided I didn't want to drive so I called a taxi. Well not really you see my dad owns all the taxi companies so I get to go wherever I want for free. How cool is that.

I didn't know this driver. He looked to be about my age maybe a few years older. He had to be new because when I got to the train station he tried to charge me. Ha like I was going to pay. Good thing my dad was waiting for me outside. He dismissed the man with just a wave not even a thank you.

'Come on Marz your sister and her friends should be here soon. How was school this year? No dear Jeffrey went to get three trolleys for all the luggage they have. Can you believe your sister is friends with the great Harry Potter?'

Sometimes my father talks more then any woman does. And the way he talks about Harry Potter one would never guess he doesn't know anything about magic other then what he reads or Hermes tells him. Hermes is the only magical person in the whole family how lucky is she?

'Marz come on people are coming off of the platform. You have to see this it is different.' I went to stand with my mom who wasn't five feet in front of us after giving her a swift kiss on the cheek she to told me to watch the people coming. At first I thought I was seeing things but I wasn't. People were actually coming out of the wall. How can that be happening but then I remembered this wasn't a normal school but one for witches and wizards.

I was a bit freaked out by the people who were coming out most looked like normal people but others didn't. This group of four came out two girls and two boys. The one boy and girl looked like they could be related but the other two had nothing in common with any of the other in the group. But I did recognize the one girl my own Hermes! I decided to freak her out so I put on my hood of my 'Michigan' jumper that Iki got me when he went to the USA last month.

When Hermes saw mom and dad she ran over here leaving her friends to find us themselves. Sometimes I think she has no manners at all. 'Mom! Dad! How are you? Can you believe I made head girl?' Well hello to you I told you no manners at all! But then again that's my Hermes.

I looked to where I last saw Hermes friends and they were looking for her. I decided I was going to be nice and go get them. Calmly I walked over to the group. 'Are you looking for Hermione?' The boy who stood out nodded to me. Maybe he is shy oh well. 'Follow me please.'

'Are you her maid or something because not many people have that kind of manners?' Again it was the boy who stood out. I would almost call him hott but I have a boyfriend plus I think Hermes wants him.

'No, sir I am the eldest daughter of a Duke. Manners are a given in my family rudeness is not permitted. Now if you would please follow me.' They didn't trust me but oh well. They were forced to follow me because I started to walk away without them. I can hate people without manners.

When I arrived with the rest of my group my mother looked a little stunned but she said nothing. Hermes did though. 'Thank you. Mom, dad this is Harry, Ron, and Ginny

'Will that be all miss? Well too bad Hermes I'm not your bloody servant next time take care of your own friends you hear me?' Sure I was yelling but how else could I get my point a crossed to her. I do think she did get it though.

'MARZ!!' She threw her arms around me like she hasn't seen me in forever. We go threw this every year. I tell you this routine gets old fast. 'Ron Harry Ginny this is Marz my bratty twin.'

'Well if it isn't the Mudblood, weasels, and pothead here I thought my day couldn't get any better I find my most hated people in the world!' And here I thought Hermes didn't have manners. I looked at the speaker only to loose my breath he was gorgeous. He was over six foot tall blonde hair with these beautiful gray eyes. He had to have worked out to have that six-pack. And that tight muscle shirt he was wearing didn't help. But his two friends were just the opposite of him but by the gods he could be one of them.

'Well excuse me while I teach these boys some manners because they are seriously lacking in that department.' I told you I hate people without manners well I was going to teach these boys some.

'Marz I'm afraid to say they will never learn any they are Slytherins but your more then welcome to try.' Well I got Hermes permission now my life is complete. NOT!

'Follow me please for a crash course in manners.' The two ugly boys did follow me but the third didn't but after a moments thought he did. I guess he wanted to see his friends get their Asses kicked by a chick. Well today was his lucky day then.

The three boys followed me behind a huge pillar with a few well-placed kicks the two overly large henchmen were down. Well that was easy. Now for the third boy. 'What have you to say for yourself now Draco Malfoy?'

'What how do you know me?' His speech was slow and drawn out almost like he was unsure of what he was saying. Kind of like Viktor was the other year.

'I know everyone and everything.' I kicked him in the face before leaving to go see everyone and to go home.

I joined the group at the front of the train station. We were about to get in one of our cars when Hermes noticed a large group of people on the other side of the station. Mom must have seen it to because she said lets go check it out. Dad had to go because this part of London belonged to him.

When we got to the crowd many people recognized my father and moved out of our way. What scared me was most of the people I knew from school. The people from my school that saw me said hello. When we got to the front of the crowd what I saw made my heart stop.

AN: Hey I'm back. Sorry it took me so long to repost this. For those of you who read the first put up it is the exact same story I just changed some spelling. I also would like to say thank you to everyone who reviewed on the story before I erased it.
