For Real
6th year at Hogwarts. A pleasure for Harry to see Hermione again. When they met, he kissed her lip. Stole her 1st kiss, and hugged her tight… Infront of Ron. Ron's really jealous. He has been wanted to do that to Varonia too. Fleur's going to Mary Bill. The 3 already've been a NEWT students now. When they're arrived at Hogwarts, they saw Nicole and Draco romancing; Nicole puts her arms on Draco's neck, and he hold her hip. They kissed each other's lips. Nicole noticed them and blushes. Draco's still teasing them as usual. They're entering the Great Hall together. Luna and Neville are the 1st one who greets them when they came in. They saw Varonia walking to their direction. Ron called her. Harry, Hermione, Ron, Neville, Luna, and Varonia sits in a nearby place of Draco and Nicole.
The event in the Great Hall started as usual,… Sorting. the other students are clapping, especially for Hufflepuff. Many new students enter Hufflepuff in this year. After the sorting and the other events finished, the students may leave. They all entered their common room.
"Great to see you, guys! How are you?" Cried Luna.
"Fine, Luna! Holiday's really boring, you know!" Hermione hugged her.
"Yes, especially for Harry I bet. My thought said that he missed the Quidditch match!" Said Neville who's actually behind Luna.
"Yes, 'The beater girl' from Slytherin's getting better, since last year. She managed to control her balance more than ever, you see…" Harry joined.
"Oh right! We'll face Slytherin in Saturday for the training match, right?" Said Ginny unexpectedly.
"Yeah, but… Who the hell is 'The beater girl from Slytherin'?" Ron replies.
"You just don't care 'bout the beaters, Ron…" Harry giggled, wrapping his arms around Hermione.
"Varonia, Ron… Varonia…" Hermione shook her head.
"She? Her? A beater? But? That's a really dangerous position!" Ron gasped.
"Mostly, Beaters are boys. I remember Slytherin's beater… Dunno who… Is doing the 'Bludger Backbeat' or something…" Luna smiled widely.
"U-huh…! And she will hit a Bludger to you if you don't look around!" Neville laughs. He stop laughing as Ginny kicked him slowly on the feet.
"E he heh! Have a nice rest, everyone! Bugas!." Luna grins and goes to the girl's dormitory. Neville goes to the boy's.
"Bugas?" Ron panted. Ginny waves her hand slowly. "Good night all. I'm gunna go to bed…" She said going to the girl's dormitory. Now, there are only Ron, Harry, and Hermione left in the common room.
"Aren't you going to sleep, Ron?" Harry started.
"Why do you ask me that?" The situation became confusing.
"Oh, nothing. Just asking!" Harry smiled, and receive a peck from Hermione. Ron nodded.
"so that's the reason…! I kinda sleepy too, mate. I'm going to jump to bed… Continue romancing d'uh!" he leaves.
"Good night!" Hermione said.
Tomorrow…
"Morning, Harry!" Hermione greets happily.
"Morning." Harry replies, giving her a good-morning kiss.
"Oi, oi! Mate! Mornin'!" Ron ran to them. They sat in the usual place. Nicole's busy with the new students in Hufflepuff. Varonia sits in the Slytherin's table, having a conversation with Pansy. Draco's in front her. Bossing around Crabbe and Goyle. Ron take a look.
"I'd never thought that Varonia's one of Parkinson' are friend! I've never seen them talking before!" Ron said, eating his sausage.
"I think she is. Look, why don't you try being more neat?" Hermione stare at his splitting sausage. Harry's still suspicious about Draco. He really thought that he's a death eater. Hermione holds his arm.
"I know you're still suspicious about him, Harry…" She whispered.
"You believed me, right? He's a Death-eater! I'm sure he was!" He murmured to Hermione.
"Well,… We have nothing to prove. And, why don't you calm yourself. Eat your food first, Harry." Hermione said calmly. He nodded, Ron eats impatiently. And finished. He's eagerly wanted to talk to Varonia. About something… He saw her walking out from the Slytherin Common Room, but Draco poked her arm once, and makes her follows him to somewhere,… Ron follows them. They're talking about something. Ron only managed to hear the last parts of it.
"… Just that, huh?" Varonia said, putting her arm on her hip.
"Yeah, you bet. thanks, and Gotta Go. I appreciate your help, d'oh!" Draco leaves, Ron shows himself.
"Oh, hi Ron!" Varonia smiled.
"What was that all 'bout?"
"Nothing big, really…"
"Then, whut' is it?"
"About the Quidditch game,"
"You're not lying aren't you?"
"Do I really look like I'm lying, huh?" Varonia smiled… or smirked…
"What the hell is going on with you? You don't ever smiled… er… smirked b'fore!" Ron gasped.
"I have smirked before, you know. Well? I have to leave, Ron, I have a Quidditch practice! Bye!" She started walking.
"Err…! Wait! Varonia!" Ron stopped her.
"What is it?" She answers.
"Umm… You see, Harry said that Malfoy's a death eater,… Do you believe that?" He said. After he make sure that it's only him and her in that place.
"Oh really? Well… If he doesn't have any prove, how come he'd know that he's a death eater? Okay, so… Bye!" She leaves.
In the Gryffindor common room…
"Ron! There you are!" Cried Hermione, she ran onto his direction with Harry. "Yo, guys! Whuzzup?" Said Ron when he just came in.
"We've found it out! Malfoy! We know where he's doing — Whatever he's doing! There! Why he was missing from the Marrauder's! There! The answer's because he's there!" Harry said impatiently, puffed and panted, super excited.
"Hey, hold on mate! Where do you mean by 'there'?" Ron started, Hermione and Harry look at each other, and Hermione whispered,
"The Room of Requirements!"
"But how come the Marrauder's don't even know?" Said Ron after hearing that.
"I think it's just part of the magic." Said Hermione again.
"Let's go there! It's before dinner! So, we still have time!" Harry started, He's been holding the invisible cloak. Ron only nodded, and they started running to The room of Requirements. Now, they're near it. They found Nicole and Varonia, somehow… Hardly discussing about something serious. "Hey, Nicole! Varon!" Hermione greets them. They stopped talking and give their attention to them. They grins, especially Nicole, she grins widely. "Hey, guys!" Varonia greets them back.
"So…? What are you doing here?" Asks Nicole who's actually still grinning widely..
"Malfoy… He's in the room… He… He's a death eater, Nicole! Really! And I'll prove it! I swear…! Believe me, Nicole!" Said Harry. Nicole's grin vanished. She stunned for a while. There's a long pause between them, just until Nicole started.
"Don't… Call him… A death-eater! He's different from his father!" She ran away, leaving them.
"Wait, Nic!" Said Vaonia. But it's too late, she already leaves. They became quiet. Varonia shook her head.
"He's not here, now…" She said.
"You know?" Harry started after his pause.
"He's in the common room when I went here, and I haven't saw him hanging around here lately, well… If you trust me," she said.
"Of course we trust you! Thanks, We'll say sorry to Nicole… Come, Harry!" Said Hermione, Harry and Hermione leaves.
"Wow… he's really that eager to find out about it…" Said Varonia.
"Yeah… About Malfoy…" Said Ron who hasn't say anything. He sighed, then looked at her gently.
"What is it?" Asks her sweetly. Ron wrapped his arms around her.
"Just missed you."
"We've just met minutes ago, Ron!" She giggles, gazing at him, Ron grins. "Tell you what? Hermione and Harry are often snogging each other, d'oh!"
Varonia's smile faded. She keep looking at Ron's eyes. Her silver eyes shines even more. She leans her body to the stone wall.
"So… What do you want exactly…?" She smiled sweetly. Ron smiled too. He gets closer to her and whispered to her ear.
"You," He gave her a kiss, smoothly. Varonia blushes, she puts her hand on his shoulder.
"I think you've already got what you want… Right?" She said. Ron smiled.
Outside the great hall
"It's her!" Points Hermione. Who saw Nicole in front the great hall.
"With Malfoy… Let's wear the invisible cloak!" Said Harry, they wear the invisible cloak and spy on them. They could saw Nicole,… Crying on Draco's Chest. Draco was holding her.
"Come on, Nic… Stop crying in front of me!" Told Draco, who's Nicole crying on. Nicole raises her head, tears are falling from her eyes. "But I— I just…! You… You're not… A death eater r… Right…," She said slowly. Draco looks at her.
"Who the bloody hell told you that!" He snapped. Loudly. Nicole leans her head to Draco's chest again. "I… Don't… But, I—I Trusted you, Draco! I—I Believe that, you're not… a death eater! Y… You don't!" She cried, clutching Draco's clothes tightly. Draco looks at her Sympathetically, and pokes her shoulder.
"You don't have to worry, Nicole. I'm by your side." He said gently, sometimes,… Draco could be soft too, huh? He puts his right hand on her cheek, which is full of tears now.
"Oh, Draco… Thank you…" She makes herself clear by now, Draco kissed her gently. She puts her arms around his neck, her tears stopped falling. Her heart stopped beating by now.
"I… Really needed you,… Draco…" She said.
"Me too."
"Thanks, I'll catch you later…" Se leaves, Draco also leaves.
Hermione and Harry were both startled seeing what they've saw just now. "Did you see what I just see?" Asks Hermione.
"Nicole and Draco? Yes…" Sad Harry.
"I don't believe that they're really hanging out! I thought that he just tempt her when we saw him lip-locking her! Cause I don't really think that Malfoy does care about girls, but… Now I know that I'm wrong about him…" Said Hermione.
"At least we know that Nicole really trusted him… This becoming more harder than I thought it would be…" Harry murmured.
"And…?"
"I think we should keep an eye on him…" Said Harry seriously. Hermione gave a peck on his lip. She smiled. "That's for cooling your mind." She said.
"Thanks, let's go back to the common room." Said Harry. He holds her hand, and went to the common room followed by Hermione.
In the common Room
They're arrived, in the room, there're only Hermione, Harry, Neville, and Luna. Everyone might have just eating their dinner. They saw Neville, laying on the sofa. On his back, there's Luna giggling softly.
"Nohl! Hello nall, nall, nall, nall, nall! Neverybodyl!" Said Luna, greeting them, laying on Neville's back.
"Hi Luna, what are you doing with the N's & L's?" Asks Hermione. Luna grins. Neville blushed. Well, it could be 'N'eville 'L'ongbottom or 'N'eville – 'L'una. She grins.
"I like the letters N&L, don't you?" She said.
"You're weird…" Said Neville blushing.
Tomorrow
"Ah… Fresh air… Morning omelet, my favorite… Day without exhausting classes… Sunday! I love Sunday!" Said Ron, splitting his omelet and eat it. But, seconds later, he closes his eyes and shook his head. Harry grins looking at him full of laughter.
"You said you love omelet!" Said Harry.
"Yeah… Paprika's inside it… I hate Paprika…" Ron cried. Harry laugh hard that makes everyone's ears split. He cough hardly after he laughed. Hermione pokes his back.
"That's what happened when you laugh while you're eating!" She said.
"A good thing he doesn't die!" Said Ron, laughing, then coughing just like Harry.
"Can't you eat politely, you two!" Muttered Hermione, poking their back.
"I could guess they can't…" Said Ginny raising her eyebrow.
"I suggest you stop saying bad things about us— Cough" Ron points his fork to her. But as he cough, the fork was accidentally thrown to the Ravenclaw table.
"Hey! Who's fork is it!" They could hear an angry voice from the Ravenclaw table. Ron put an 'I don't know' face.
"I don't know!" he replies loudly. Ginny shook her head.
"Liar… A weird liar…" Said Ginny. Hermione gave an agreeing nod. Fred and George came, and poke Ron's back.
"Great, bro!" Said Fred.
"You've managed to make us laughed this time!" George continues.
"You've never make us laugh b'fore!" Said Fred.
"What's so special about that…?" whispered Harry to Ginny and Hermione.
"Yeah!" Fred and George leaves. Ron keep watching them, grinning.
"What's that about?" Asks Ginny.
"They'll give me 2 Galleons! Yay! This is my lucky day!" Said Ron, cheering up.
"If this is your lucky day, why don't you say sorry to the Ravenclaw?" Joined Harry. Ron shook his head.
"Oh no… I'm not lucky for that…" He replies, as Luna joined them.
"Nheyl, nguysl! Nsundaysl! Nlovel nlovel nlovel nlovel nlovel nlovel nlovel!" Sings Luna.
"Hey! What are you doing with the N & L, Loony?" Said Ron, who's now was kicked to the shin by Ginny. "Don't call her that!" Ginny muttered. She looks at Luna.
"Even if you're now hangin' out with Neville, doesn't mean you could always use N&L's, Luna…" Said Ginny.
"I loveeee it! Nl nl nl nl nl nl nl nl nl nl nl nl nl nl nl nl nl nl nl nl…!" She sings again.
"Ah…! I see! How about to go for a drink to Hogsmeade, everyone?" Said Hermione, loudly to make Luna stops singing. Her plan worked. Luna stopped.
"I'll ask Neville Longbottom about that! Sankyuu for inviting!" Said Luna, leaves cheerfully.
"Since when did Loo – na calls Neville with his last name? And… What's sankyuu again?" Asks Ron.
"Sometimes,… I think Luna just a loony brained girl with no real thoughts in her head…" Ginny shook her head slowly.
"How many times are you gonna shook your head? If you shook it all the time, it won't go straight anymore!" Ron laughs as Ginny kicked him to the shin… Again…
"So… What's the plan for today?" Asked Harry to them.
"Going to the Hogsmeade, I already said it to Luna…" Said Hermione.
"Geez, okay, who'll come?" Asks Harry again.
"Us, who else?" suggested Hermione. She notices Ginny trying to get an attention.
"What is it, Ginny?" Asks Hermione. Notices Ginny.
"Do you really sure, you wanted to go to the Diagon Alley too?" Asks Ginny. Hermione nodded.
"What d'ya mean?" Asks Ron who doesn't 'really' get it.
"Diagon Alley's full of dementors now! Knowing you-know-who's already back…!" Said Ginny impatiently.
"AH! Yeah! Make sure you'll be safe, Gin!" Ron laugh, he receiving a smirk from Ginny. "Me? Care about yourself, Ron!" Said Ginny. They paused.
"Hah! I will!" Said Ron cockily.
"In your faces…" Ginny leaves, smiling.
"Err… I think we should go change our clothes for the trip to the Hogsmeade," Cutted Harry, pushing Ron to the Fat Lady Painting, and said a non-verbal 'I'll catch you, later' to Hermione.
Later
(A/N sorry, my bad )
"All complete!" Said Harry. There're Harry, Hermione, Ron, Neville, Luna, Ginny, Varonia, Nicole, and… Draco?
"Why do you invite him!" Whispered Ginny loudly.
"Cant I…?" Muttered Nicole.
"Do you fancy him?" Whispered Ginny again.
"We're hanging out," Replies Nicole. Ginny's now totally startled. She doesn't know about this before. They goes there. Diagon Alley… Now full of dementors around, knowing that You-know-Who had returned.
The dementors, somehow… are Around them. "Why are they around us!" Said Ron.
"I don't know! They're maybe just searching for the Death-eaters! It's useless to use patronus here! Let's go somewhere else! Use apparate!" Said Harry. They all use apparate. But… because of that, they've be separated.
"W… Where is this? G… Guys? Where are you? The dementors are here! Where are you, guys?" Ron panicked.
"Calm down, Ron! You can call a patronus right?" Asks Varonia. It's only them. In a dark place which is maybe the… Forbidden Forest.
"Yeah! I'll take my wa— Huwoo!" He get even more panicked when he saw many Dementors are around them.
"Stand back, Ron! Expecto Patronum!" Varonia casts her spell. There's a fog, inside the fog, there's Varonia's patronus. Ron's a bit startled, seeing Varonia's patronus.
"Wy… Wyvern," Said Varonia surprised, that she could call a Wyvern.
A/N
A Wyvern is a winged Dragon found in Medieval Europe. It symbolize destruction, conquest, and also pestilence. It is a predatory, violent and fierce animal. The Wyvern is related to the Basilisk. Although, the Wyvern is quite Dangerous, they're also extremely intelligent making these beasts a formidable opponent to anyone.
The Wyvern appears, it's been quite for a while, and look at them. Varonia and Ron. Ron's actually shaking.
"H…How could you call a Wyvern!" Said Ron. "Destruction's near, Varonia! It's a Wyvern that you call!" he continues.
"destruction to the one who attacked us." Said Varonia, trying to make herself clear.
"Can you r…Really control it?" Asks Ron.
"I'll try…" She said. She goes near to the Wyvern. The Wyvern bow it's head. Varonia touch it's head. And pokes it. "Will you help me?" Sad Varonia. The Wyvern bows more deeper. Varonia smiled.
"thank you for your kindness." She said.
"Varonia! Behind you!" Said Ron, Suddenly. She looks back, 2 dementors are attacking her. She can't do anything right now. The Wyvern helps. It defeats most of the dementors.
"Ron! Call a patronus!" Cried Varonia.
"N…NOW!"
"Call it!"
"I…"
"Hurry Ron! Be careful!" Said Varonia.
"Eh… E… Expecto Patronum!" He points his wand to the Dementor near him. But no patronus appears.
"What…? What happened!" He said, panicky.
"Ron, in front of you!" Cried Varonia. The Wyvern attacks the dementors on Ron's back. But not all dementors are beaten.
"Think about your very important memory!" She cried loudly.
'My most important… Memory…?'
"Think about it, Ron!" She cried loudly. The Wyvern's still attacking.
'Think, Ron! Think!'
"RON! NO!" She cried more loudly, Ron looked back, points his wand to the dementors, and say,
"Expecto… Patronum!" He said Loudly. In a smog, appears a patronus. They still can't see it.
"Ron! Thank goodness!" Varonia cried, she ran to him, and hugged him tightly. Ron blushes. "I'm glad you're alright! Oh, Ron!" She cried again. She stopped her hugging time, and see Ron's patronus.
"… A Badger…?" He startled. This small animal appears, and it's his patronus! Somehow Varonia became quiet. Ron guessed. 'she'll think it's not cool at all… Yeah… Badger's are not cool… Like a Wyvern… I knew it…'
"You're a totally happy person, aren't you?" She said.
"Huh? Oh yeah, Badger symbolizes happiness." He said, grinning. As the Badger joins the Wyvern defeating the dementors. Big and Small.
"Ah! The Wyvern's a kind of Dragon, right?" He guessed. Varonia nodded, smiling.
"No wonder you can calls it! You're a half-dragon, right? Being a Dragon's so cool!" He said, grinning. Varonia's smile faded.
"Sigh It's not that great to receive a curse since we've born…" She murmured.
"Eh..? I'm sorry?"
"Nothing! Let's go out, We can't defeat all the dementors here! They're keep coming. Whistle" As she whistled, the Wyvern swing it's tail, that makes most numbers of the dementors defeated. "Thanks, you've done well." Said Varonia.
The Wyvern vanished. As the badger vanished too.
"Let's disapparate." She said. Ron nodded, grinning.
"Disapparate!" They said it together, then transferred to the diagon alley again.
Draco, Luna, Ginny, and Harry…
"Why are they attacking us! They're only searching for the Death—" Harry's word cutted. 'Death-Eater! That's it!' He glares at Draco. Glares sharply at him. He points his wand to Draco.
"You! You're a Death-Eater! No wonder the Dementors chase us!" He said angrily. Draco smirked widely.
"You think so, eh? What's your Prove, POTTER!" He said loudly. Harry became quite for a while. Thinking of the prove he knows, and the truth.
"I KNOW YOU DOING SOMETHING IN THE ROOM OF RE—"
"Very funny, boys…! Keep on fighting until you're sent to Azkaban!" Said Ginny, giving them a fake laugh.
"What's your problem, little Weasel!" Draco answers her.
"My problem? Well, it's okay if you wanted to be sent to the Azkaban, MALFOY!" She said with her high voice. Luna became serious this time.
"Ginny's right! It's not the right time to fight!" She shouts. Harry sighed.
"Okay, so what do we have to do…? The Dementors aren't here yet… Luckily we're in a cave…" He said slowly.
"Disapparate, if you still can concentrate… I know that our mind's not balanced right now…" Said Ginny. Luna shook her head.
"Not if the Dementors are around…" She said flatly.
"Well, go out and call our patronus, then!" said Draco impatiently.
"Do you think calling a Patronus is an easy job?" Muttered Harry.
"Scared, huh? Potter?" He sneer.
"I wish!" He replies.
"Then we're on!" Said Ginny confidently.
They go outside the cave, and prepares to fight with the Dementors. We knew that Harry's been defeating Dementors before, but can he still do it now?
