School Show Down

Acid gave me a hug before heading on the stage where the rest of the band was waiting. He whispered something in Iki's ear before he took his spot on the stage.

I walked away from the stage when the band started to play a song. They had to have been half way through the song when Acid nodded to me.

Being that I was right in the front of the stage I saw that he was nodding at me instead of some girl.

By time I made it to the side of the stage where the steps where they had finished the song. Acid met me at the side of the stage going on about Marz not being there and he was worried.

'Acid don't worry she will show up when she is ready but for now it looks as if I'm singing.'

Acid just nodded once more before giving me a headset. I calmly took his hand as he led me on stage.

I would be lying if I said I wasn't scared. After all it has been over six years since I've sang with the band. What's worse is that many of these people I will be going back to school with in a few weeks time.

'Fellow students and guest students most of you are expecting to see Mage but unfortunately she isn't here. That's why her sister Hermes is up here. What we're going to do is have what I want to call a blast from the past.

'Give it up for Hermione!' I'm going to have to remember to kill Jarral later but right now isn't good.

'Thanks Jarral but after this your dead.' If I wanted to say more it would have been cut off by the band starting one of our first ever songs called Need.

Singing wasn't as hard as I thought it would have been. By the time the song was over many people were cheering so loud that I couldn't hear my heart beat any more.

The only cheer that I heard real clear was 'Go, Go, Gryffindor' I had to laugh at this because it was our cheer for when we won a Quidditch match and we weren't playing Quidditch at the moment.

I didn't have to sing a second song because Marz showed up. She said that she was late because she had to do something but she didn't say what it was.

Acid didn't look happy but he didn't say anything or do anything. He just gave her a headset and led her on stage.

I walked to the group shouting Go, Go, Gryffindor! There was most of the school all that was missing was the Slytherins but I didn't mind and neither did the rest of the school.

Well that was a lie I was kind of hoping that Draco would be there. Yet in a sad way I'm glad that he wasn't here. I mean who would want to talk to me after singing a song like Need? Heck I didn't even want Ron, Harry, or even Ginny to hear it.

Need is the only song I've written for the group and it's also my favorite to sing. Back at Hogwarts when I was on my own I would hum or even sing it. Everyone thinks that all I think about is my schoolwork but that isn't so.

Actually what I really think the most about is my family and in particular Marz. One thing few people know and that is the strong bond between twins.

The rest of the band practice went off just fine. Marz was there the rest of the time just singing her head off as if she wasn't late and had nothing going on in her head.

Well at least that what she looked like to people that didn't know her. Because I know her I could see the fear she had in her eyes when she looked over at us. When I say us I mean the Hogwarts students that I was standing with.

I went to the library this time I did go because we (Hogwarts students) had a meeting with professor Dumbledore had something to talk to us about. I don't know what it was about but I knew I wasn't allowed to skip it no matter how much I wanted to.

I sat with Harry and Ron. Ginny was sitting with some people from her year the only person I recognized was Colin Creevey. All the Slytherins were sitting together and away from the rest of us.

'Do you think that they believe they are too good for the rest of us?' Harry said out of the blue. I don't know what made him ask but I had to wonder if he was right or not.

'Ah your all here we shall began then. I know you are all wondering what we are doing here. You are here to learn that there are other things that are important. Another thing you are here to learn is that things can be done without magic as well as how muggles live.

'You were all chosen to come because you are the best and well behaved out of your year. While you are here there are some things you need to know.' Dumbledore looked at us all to be sure he had our attention. When he was satisfied that we were all listening he went on.

'First off while you are here you are to show a united front. That means as of now there is no separation between houses. That means that the way you are all sitting now is not accepted at any time.'

I had to remember that the Slytherins were sitting on there on their own and as far from the rest of us as they could. When I looked at Dumbledore he too was watching the Slytherins.

After a moment he went back to talking. 'Next off there is no and I mean no use of magic for any reason. The students here have never heard of our magic. However there are a few that have but we don't know who all of them are so until we return to school there is to be no mention of magic or use of it.

'Now on to your last classes of the day and remember to have fun and keep an open mind about what you learn here.'

Ron, Harry and I were the last to leave because there was something that I wanted to ask professor Dumbledore but when I walked up to where he was last standing he was gone.

The three of us ended up having to run to our next class because we had spent too much time in the library looking for professor Dumbledore that we fell behind the rest of our year.

Our last class of the day was Ancient History. I don't know what they were learning about but I wasn't expecting to have no teacher at all.

The class was on the second floor of the main building. We had arrived just after everyone else but that I expected. Harry and Ron took the last two seats at the back of class. I was surprised when they chose those two seats instead of the group of three in the front.

I guess I was hurt that they chose to sit away from me. After seven years of sitting with the boys I didn't expect them to change the way they did. About five minutes into class Marz's phone rang.

I didn't hear what she said to who ever she was speaking to. I was shocked when she tossed me the phone though.

'Hello?'

'Hey hunny how is your first day back?'

'Oh hey dad, the first day so far has been odd. I forgot what it was like going here but I haven't forgotten all the fun I had being here. You won't guess what I did today.'

'What did you do?'

'I went and sang on stage. I haven't done that in ages. Harry and Ron looked like they didn't have a clue as to what was going on.

'Dad two questions one where is our teacher? And is the English teacher always judgmental?'

Dad seamed to hesitate for a moment before replying 'Well Marz fired the Ancient History teacher. As to the English teacher I don't know she came with the place when I bought it and seeing as she was affective in her teaching that I haven't let her go but I never really talk to her.

'Make sure that no one destroys the classroom. Sorry love I can't stay and chat I'll see you in a few days.'

'Bye dad see you soon.' I turned off the phone to notice that everyone was looking at me.

I tossed the phone to Marz before I even thought about talking to the group. I told them that there was no teacher yet so they were free to do whatever work they had left to work on.

Chaos broke out when I told them that there was no teacher. Everyone got out of their seats to talk or throw things around the room. I tried yelling but no one would listen to me.

After a few minutes I just gave up. I was going to sit and do my science work but I couldn't concentrate on it so I gave up on that as well.

Very soon everyone had gotten on my nervous so I just grabbed my stuff and walked out. What really help me walk out of the classroom were Ron and Harry. When they found out that there was no teacher they walked over to talk to these blonde bimbos that looked like they didn't care.

I ran straight to my dorm room. I didn't even stop to talk to a staff member who wanted to know why I was out of class. Once I reached my room I threw myself on my bed crying the tears that I wouldn't shed in class.

I sat on my bed crying for hours. For years I had a crush on Harry but I wouldn't tell him because he only saw me as a sister.

I only had one visitor and that was Marz she wanted to know if I was okay. I could only nod. I felt bad because I couldn't even look at her in the face. She left when I told her that I wanted to be left alone.

No one bothered me for the rest of the night. I ended up crying myself to sleep.

When I woke up I realized that crying over Harry was stupid I've known him to long to cry over him. However I was still hurt that him and Ron chose some blonde bimbos over me but there was no point crying over it.

I quickly changed into clean clothes for the day. I chose a simple purple tank top with a pair of flared blue jeans. After putting my hair up in a simple bun as well as putting on my eye makeup I felt ready to face the day.

I walked in the common room to see Marz sitting on the couch talking in whispering to Tazz. I didn't know what they were talking about and I didn't care.

I just walked out of the house and down to the dinning hall. I was really hungry from skipping dinner and lunch.

In the dinning hall I chose to sit with the band other then Marz and Tazz because they were in the common room. Tean was telling another blonde joke when I sat down with my bowl of yogurt. I wasn't as hungry as I thought I was because I didn't finish it.

Well to tell the truth I lost my appetite when I saw Harry and Ron sitting with the same blonde bimbos from yesterday.

For the first time in seven years I felt like I was a third wheel in the group. I stayed the rest of breakfast talking with the band and Day of course. I was only half listening to the boys I just couldn't focus on what was going on.

After breakfast I walked with Iki to science. He was talking about the band and how it has changed sense I was there last and how they have come up with some great new songs.

He was telling me about this song he wrote that he was too scared to show the other members of the group. He told me that it is about a group of friends that were forced to split up because of going to a new school and how they missed one another.

I told him that I would look at it later if he wanted me to. He liked the idea and told me that he would give it to me after classes.

I ended up sitting with Iki and Tazz. I was going to sit with Ron and Harry but they were sitting with someone else.

I didn't pretend to care that I was being left out. In a way I felt like I was back home. The reason I say that I felt like I was back home is because I've gone to this school for years and that all my friends are here other then the ones I made at Hogwarts.

Draco's P.O.V

I waited up late into the night for Hermione to come but she never did. I began to think that maybe things would never change.

I mean what the hell made me think that she would ever come and see me out of her free will.

At breakfast the next morning she was sitting with some of the muggle boys that her sister hangs out with. They were also the same boys that she sang with yesterday.

All the Gryffindors were behind their golden girl as was the rest of the school other then the Slytherins of course.

Maybe it was all that united school shit that made Granger think she could ignore me well fuck her! I don't need a fucking Gryffindor for a friend.

Blaise unfortunately doesn't see it the same fucking way I do. At breakfast he sat at the table just staring at the door waiting for Marz to walk in but she never did. We all trued to get him to talk but he never did.

He finally came to life when the bell rang. He walked with us to science but still he didn't speak. It was sad to watch a Slytherin beat himself over what everyone thought was a muggle.

Blaise sat with me but he kept a seat open for Marz. When Pansy tried to sit there he yelled at her. When she left it looked like she was ready to cry and silently I cheered for Blaise.

Marz walked in just before the bell. After looking she chose the seat with Blaise and I. Blaise looked really happy but Marz looked like she would have rather been in a pit full of dragons during mating season.

The image was a bit funny but I didn't let anyone see that I found something funny.

The teacher walked in just after Marz took her seat. He was going on about some shit that I didn't even have a fucking clue about. He gave us a piece of paper that had some pictures as well as a few words on it but nothing that made sense to me.

He then told us that the table that had the piece of paper was to turn around and work with the table behind us.

Behind us were Iki, Tazz, and Hermione. I didn't want to work with Hermione because I was hurt that she didn't show up or even say that she wouldn't come.

I didn't have a clue what we were meant to do but thankfully everyone else did and they didn't have a problem with telling me. Hermione of course knew them all but so did Marz.

'I'm sorry I didn't make it last night I fell asleep after class.' I was shocked to hear Hermione talk to me in class when her friends were in the same room.

'Whatever.' I said in my normal I don't give a shit tone. Hermione just shrugged and went back to explaining things to Iki who didn't have a clue what a picture meant.

After ten minutes potty and the weasel came over and asked Hermione to help them because they didn't get a picture and no one in their group did.

Hermione told them what it was and explained it to them. They didn't even say thanks as they went back to where they were sitting.

'Why do you do it?' I asked a few seconds after they left.

'Do what?'

'Help them with everything when they really don't care about it but instead let you do everything?'

'Because they're my friends and I don't do everything for them. But what would you know about friends?'

'Like you know anything about being a Malfoy. There are things you don't know and that would scare the life out of you if you did know.' Here I thought I was being nice only to have it thrown in my face.

Malfoy's don't have friends we have business acquaintance that we use to get to wherever we want to.

Blaise and Marz must have sensed a fight coming on changed topic back to our work, which was done. The teacher came around giving us all a new sheet of paper, which had a crossword on it.

Hermione and Marz got started on it right away. Blaise was talking with Iki and Tazz. I was just staring off in to space thinking of when we could go back to Hogwarts so I could tease the shit out of the other houses.

Dumbledore said that we had to be kind to our other houses he didn't say that I couldn't have one night stands with students from here. Even if the students here are muggles they are still good for sex.

Hell even Parkinson is good for sex that is if a person puts a paper bag over her head. Also one has to give her a gag.

'I know you like her but just not at the moment but you must help her save all of magic. If you can't look past yourself for once everything you know is doomed.'

The voice came out of nowhere yet everywhere at once. I knew it was that girl that kept asking Hermione for help or whatever she was asking for. Next thing I knew class was over.

I quickly got out of my seat and out the door. No one from Hogwarts dared to make a comment about me rushing out of the room because they all knew I wouldn't hastate to hurt them.

I hurried to my math class which in my view was pointless and from what I've heard muggles feel the same way. I sat in the back of the room because I hate sitting in the front and something was bugging me and I don't know what it is.

That was a lie I know what the fuck is bugging me and that is how true Hermione's words were. Hermione had no clue how close she was to the truth that I don't even like to tell myself.

Blaise sensing that I wasn't in a good mood stayed away from me in math as did Pansy. The rest of the day I stayed away from anyone going over Hermione's words in my head.

The only place that I went that was crowded was band practice. I enjoyed watching the group play. I was shocked yesterday when Hermione got up and sang. She has such a good voice, as does her sister it however is surprising that she never let anyone in on it.

I might not have stood with the rest of my school but I could still see the shocked look on all their faces. The only person that wasn't shocked was Blaise and that is because he went to school here with her.

The song she sang was something I never thought I would hear from her at anytime. Today however she didn't sing. I don't think she was ever there because she wasn't up at the stage or with her friends from our school.

Today when the band was done I didn't hang around I just went off to my next class. I didn't bother greeting anyone that said hello to me because I was still ticked about how well Hermione Granger knew the truth.

After my last class of the day which was even more pointless then math because we had no teacher I went straight to my room. Hermione Granger was too close to the truth but for reasons she didn't know.

Being a Malfoy I wasn't allowed to have any friends just people to use to get somewhere. The closest person I have that to a real friend is Blaise and that is only because I was forced to be around him all the time as a child because he is a pureblood and a future deatheater.

But look at where that has gotten us. No one in our school other then Slytherins will talk to us. Not that we care, we like being alone to a point. It however does get hard to handle when the whole school is against you

I stayed alone the rest of the night in my room. Or at least I wish I had. I had just fallen into a peaceful sleep when I heard my door open.

Whoever it was didn't bother turning on the lights but instead came and sat down on my bed. He or she made no move to identify who they are.

'Who are you? And what do you want?'
