Hey again, second time today! Thought it'd be good to post this now, maybe even get the fourth chapter up later tonight!
Thanks again for the reviews :-)

Chapter Three: Flying Free
"I wish that overgrown bat would just leave!" growled Ron softly as the trio took their usual places in the classrooms and began to organise their equipment.
Glaring at the snarly Professor, Harry nodded. Only Hermione disagreed. "It's not his fault Ron. You know that! I don't blame him for been so sullen these days."
"I don't care what anyone says, I'll never believe him. And anyway, if you think he's allowed to be grouchy now, what was his excuse before?" Ron snapped.
"Five points from Gryffindor", an icy voice rang." For talking during class." Snape glared down at the trio, earning himself glares from the other students in the House.
As Snape begun to explain today's class, Hermione found it harder and harder to concentrate. Words kept slipping away from her ears and she couldn't focus. But she didn't really mind, the blue sky was nice…
She was brought back sharply when Harry poked her in the side. "Come on, we're meant to be starting the dreamless sleep potion!" He whispered urgently.
"Oh… but I thought he said we were going to be studying the flying free potion today?" She gazed up at Harry, whose quizzical expression told her, quite clearly, that the Potions Master had said no such thing.
For the second time that day, Hermione shook her head. Where had that idea come from? Oh yes, the blue skies, the white clouds, the lush green hills she was soaring above…
Suddenly she was knocked into a tree, which poked her side quite sharply. The three had a face, black hair and glasses.
"Hermione!" Harry whispered urgently. Hermione blinked, surprised to see Harry standing next to her.
"Oh, yes," she smiled vaguely at him. "The flying free potion…"
Harry just looked at her, horrified.
"What? Harry, what is it?" Self consciously, she raised her hands to her face. Something was there, something that shouldn't be. Annoyed, she assumed it was a pimple. But when she realised that yellow goo that was oozing from it, she eyes glazed over in shock.
The entire class turned in time to see her pass out.

Again, very short chapter, I will probably post some longer ones at some stage.
Thank you SlyGriff for reviewing again so soon, I'm SO glad you liked that chapter, hope you like this one too!
Duj, I guess I kind of twisted it to my perspective, what I could only hope. I know I didn't stay true to the book really in that sense, but please don't hold that against me. But thanks for the second review, yes, at least they are allowed to know potions!
