"Follow me to the edge of the forest." He said in a voice like thunder. She watched as Harry watched the giant with great admiration.
Ah so this is how I can get to Harry… becoming "friends" with the brut… that'll get him to trust me for sure. If any one had looked close enough they would have seen an evil glint in her eyes.
She moved towards the rest of the group and saw the big man standing next to a pair of thresals.
" Professor, they are beautiful" she said in the sweetest, yet shyest voice she could muster up.
" You mean you can see them?" Harry said with a hint of respect in his eyes
I have to think of an excuse for me being able to see them… its not like I can tell him I have seen my father kill thousands of people though out my life… I know I'll tell him I say my parents killed in a fire… yea that's it.
 " Yea I can see them"
" You have to have witnessed a death to be able to see thresals though."

" I saw my Parents die in a fire," She said in a soft voice that you would have to listen very closely for to hear.
" Oh, I'm sorry"
" that's ok you didn't kill them" Cassandra turned her attention from Harry back to the thresals, and paid close attention to what the professor was saying. Little did she know that Harry was some how drawn to her.

The next two months went by pretty uneventful, Cassandra plotted ways to full fill her fathers wishes, and she spent almost all of her time out side of classes with Harry and Ron… Hermionie seems to think something's up with her. She doesn't know how right she is.

The date was now November 10th, and Cassandra was walking down the corridor thinking of how she would get Herms out of the way, When she sees her walking just ahead of her all alone… after curfew… she was up to something, so Cassandra followed her towards the upstairs girls bathroom… the one that contained the infamous Moaning Murtal.
She could hear voices coming from with in the bathroom; it was Hermionie and another girl.
" Something's up with Cassandra, she had hair the colour of blood… ok so that's not all that strange about that, you can get that colour in any muggle hair colour, but she always where's her hair down, she hiding something, and Murtal I know what it is. I saw her neck once during a windy day when he was outside… she has the dark mark on her neck"
" But Hermionie I thought they only put them on their arms…"
" They do… she must be some one really important, maybe she's you know who's daughter"

That's it I have to get to her before she tells any one… Cassandra turns her self into a panther and runs into the bathroom. Herms' sees her and screams. The Panther lunges at her, pins her to the ground, growling, Herms screaming al the while… the panther bears its teeth and lowers its head. Herms' is going hysterical by now. The panther gets starts to get really annoyed and bites down her Herms throat, ripping it out. Unfortunately Hermionie's screams attracted people, Cassandra can hear people coming, so she turns herself invisible, undetectable by the Maunders map, then quietly sneaks out of the room.

the following day the whole school is a mess… every one is either mourning the loss of Hermionie, scared out of there mind about her killer or, if they are in Slytherin they are happy the mudblood is finally dead. Cassandra used this opportunity to get closer to Harry. When she sees him walking down the corridor, she runs up to him.
" Harry, how you holding up?"

" Not good… I feel so bad… like why hadn't I protected her, I could have saved her."

" It would have killed you, and if it had, I would be totally lost in this school, you're the only friend I have Harry" she replied looking down and started to walk away.
Harry grabs her arm and spins her around.
