Well, here's chapter 7, and I hope you've enjoyed the story so far! Thanks for all the reviews...
even though they were a little mean... -

Whitelight72: you know, you're the only one that thought of Rile being a girl... Twenty points to
you! Congrats!

And just so a certain some one :cough, cough: GryffindorRulez :cough, cough: can shut up, I'll
tell you who Rile is! ... Tonks! -

And I'll finally be revealing who the other three Professors are! In the next chapter, of course...
lol

P.S. When Tonks dropped her Illusions, Ginny stated "Harry! What are you doing with that
Bloody man?"
it was supposed to be "Bloody Git" not "man". And Ginny had a good reason
for calling her that too.

But, you'll find that out in the next chapter! -

ENJOY!

Last Chapter:

"Sorry, Ginny. You always were a blabbermouth..." Harry said with a soft smile.

Ginny knew what was about to happen. A merry laugh escaped her mouth before she closed her eyes and nodded at
her friend. "It's alright Harry. I don't think I would have been able to keep this from Ron and Hermione all by myself.
Go ahead... I'm ready."

And with that, Harry pulled his illusion charm back into place, flicked his wand a few times at the girl and said

"Out of Sight... Out of Mind..."

A Few Moments Later:

Ginny shook her head, trying to clear it. Looking around, she realized she was still in the Astronomy Tower. Alone.
"That Bloody Git! I swear I'll hex him into next Tuesday!" she yelled, making her voice echo off the stone walls.

Ginny stopped, stone still, and looked at her surroundings while going over what she had just said.
Shaking her head she whispered "Deja Vu..." as she made her way back down the stairs of the Tower.


Chapter 7: Skiving Snackboxes are for Gryffindors!


'The scene before the Sixth Year Gryffindor was bright and clear. She was currently standing before the best known
Joke Shop in Diagon Alley; 'Weasley's Wizarding Wheezes'. A huge smile broke out on the girl's face as she began
to walk into the shop, and as soon as she opened the door, she had found who she had been looking for.
Pansy Parkinson.

Luna almost ran to the older Slytherin who was currently talking to Fred and George Weasley...

"Come on, now,"
"We'll let you buy it, but"
"Don't expect us to tell you"
"Just how to work it."
"Figure it out for yourselves,"
"Considering you are Slytherins!"
"We have Faith that you"
"Won't kill yourself!"

"Fine!" Pansy shouted and she slammed fifteen sickles and four knuts onto the counter that was separating her and
the Weasley Twins. "I'll figure it out on my own! I don't need no Gryffindor to tell me how a prank works!"

"But just be warned!"
"If Pomfrey finds out"
"That you bought that from here,"
"You'll probably be suspended!"
"Our Skiving Snackboxes made it"
"Onto Flitch's list of Banned Items"
"This year. Brilliant, eh?"

Luna gave a cry of surprise when Pansy turned around and walked right through her.
'Now that feels weird. Almost like when you get bit by Skanders and the venom acts as a... um.. I forgot what I was
thinking...'
As the bell sounded on the door, Luna snapped out of her thoughts as she ran to catch up with the
Slytherin girl.

There was no detours, no stops... just straight back to Hogwarts where they made it to the first class of the day without
getting into trouble. Not that Luna would get into trouble anyway...

"Are you sure this is it? I've never actually seen what those bloody Gryffindors take..." Pansy whispered to the boy
that was sitting beside her.

The boy, Blaize Zabini , smirked and nodded his head in approval. "Thanks Pansy. Would you care for one? I
know you hate History of Magic Class..."
Blaize said as he held the open box before Pansy, allowing her to take
the first skiving snack.

"Why thank you Blaize!" Pansy replied in mock gratefulness as she snatched up a half purple, half orange roll.
Not knowing how it worked, both Slytherins broke the snack in half, and with a mutual decision, ate the purple
piece first.

Nothing happened...

So, then they ate the orange piece...

"Bloody Hell! Pansy! What happened to you!" A third year Draco Malfoy asked as he sauntered up to the table
she was sharing with Blaize. "You've got warts all over yourself!" with that statement, Blaize turned to look at
the Slytherin girl and almost fell off the bench because he was laughing so hard.

Luna scowled and stuck her tongue at the laughing boy, while trying to pat her friends shoulder, and making no
progress, seeing as how her hand kept slipping through her friends body.

"Wouldn't be laughing so hard if I were you, Blaize. You've got boils the size of eggs covering you. What the Bloody
Hell did you two do?"
the young blond asked, shaking his head and taking a seat in front of them.

"We can't go to Pomfrey... Skiving Snackboxes are on the Banned List... we'll get into too much trouble..." Pansy said
as she pulled a tube of liquid foundation out of her Robe and began a futile attempt to cover the warts...'

Suddenly, Luna felt like she was being thrown backwards... the surroundings changed from the bright classroom full
of students to the dark common room of the Gryffindor Perfects...

Luna shook her head and gave a quick glance around the room. Ron sat to her left, Hermione to her right, and Ginny
and Blaize were kneeling over the limp body of Pansy, just a few feet away. Luna blinked, trying to remember what
she had seen in Pansy's mind.

"Pansy, you okay? Pansy.." Ginny was gently shaking Pansy by the shoulders.

A low grunt was heard from the girl as she cracked a single eye open. "You didn't have to leave so... hard. That kinda
hurt." Pansy stated as she pulled herself into a sitting position after refusing the help that she was offered by her
friends.

Luna cocked her head to the side, with a twinkle in her eyes and a smile on her lips, everyone burst out with
laughter at the words that followed.

"Silly Slytherins. Skiving Snackboxes are for Gryffindors..."

No one knew what Luna saw besides Pansy, but Blaize had a pretty good idea, considering that there was only one
incident involving Skiving Snackboxes and Pansy.

At the beginning of the previous summer, Hermione had somehow found out that McGonagall was skilled at entering
a person's mind without being noticed and gathering any information she might need.

After Hermione and Ron confronted her about it, she agreed to teach them. After Ron and Hermione mastered the
skill, they taught it to Ginny, Luna, Blaize and Pansy.

And thats why they were sitting here, laughing their butts off at each others memories...

"Alright! It's myyyyy tuuurrrnnn!" Hermione sang as she placed her wand in the middle of the circle that they had
re-formed. Giving her wand a good spin, she pulled back and waited for it to stop.

"Good luck with that one. 'Mione! Last time I got Ginny, It was nothing but her and one boy or another!" Luna said
with a cackle.

Hermione frowned and picked up her wand, pointing it at Ginny. "Are you ready, Gin?"

Ginny scrunched her eyes as tight as she could and gave a small nod "Just don't hurt me, alright?"

"Legilimency!"

Hermione was immediately standing in a vast, white, nothingness...

A pair or crystal clear blue eyes slowly appeared before her, before rapidly changing into emerald green instead.

After a moment of silence a soft voice managed to echo off of the emptiness that surrounded her.

"Out of Sight... Out of Mind..."

And with that, the eyes changed back to the color they were when they first appeared, looking saddened and hurt.

A scream was the last thing she heard as she plummeted back into her own mind. Feeling two strong hands tightly on
her shoulders, Hermione began to cry.

Luna, Blaize and Pansy look on in horror.

"What happened, love? What did you see? What made you cry out like that...?" Ron asked softly, his hot breath on
Hermione's ear.

'That was me? I screamed...? Those eyes... Why... Harry! It was Harry!' Hermione quickly swiped at the tears that
were falling from her honey colored eyes and looked towards Ginny, who was sitting on the floor, holding her knees
to her chest and rocking back and forth. Hermione gently pushed Ron away from her, and began to crawl over to her
boyfriends little sister, casting a silencing charm around the two of them.

"Ginny... When did that happened...? When did you see him...?" she asked in a hushed tone. "Was it really him, or
was that just a dream? Ginny please! I've got to know..."

Ginny lifted her head, eyes red and puffy from crying. "It was him. But I wasn't supposed to know... I wasn't supposed
to find out! We've got to go to him... He has to fix this before someone else finds out! We're both in real danger if we
don't find him tonight..."


Dungeons of Hogwarts:


"Why are we going to Professor Jynx? Does he know where Harry is? Is he helping him hide from Voldemort?
Ginny! Answer me!" Hermione screamed at the back side of her red headed friend.

"You'll know soon enough, 'Mione!" was the only reply as the girls wove their way into the dungeons of Hogwarts,
using the Marauders Map to stay out of Flitch and Mrs. Norris' way. And to be sure that no one tried to follow them.

"Quiet! Hurry. In here!" Hermione whispered as she grabbed Ginny by the arm and pulled her into an unused
classroom, closing the door slowly.

Hermione put a finger to her mouth and made a 'shhh'ing sound, effectively causing Ginny to refrain from asking who
was coming.

Knowing what Ginny was thinking, Hermione handed the map to her friend and pointed to the hall that they had just
left.

Ginny looked at the map and smiled. Handing the map back to Hermione, Ginny threw the door open and ran into the
hall.

"Professor Snitch! Hold on! We need to talk to Jynx.. It's important, I promise!"

Hermione, who had run after the youngest Weasley, stopped dead in her tracks.

'Professor Snitch? Professor Snitch is...!'

Snitch, who had turned to face Ginny, scowled. "And what, pray tell, is so important that you need to be wandering
the dungeons at two in the morning?" he asked, looking impatient as always.

"I always wondered why I always found you so familiar... This explains so much!" Hermione stated quietly, mostly to
herself.

Snitch sneered at the girls as he looked from them to the map in their possession. "Fine! Follow me; And keep up!"

XXX

"Lion among Snakes" Snitch whispered to the waiting Portrait, making the man in the picture smirk before swinging
open for them to enter.

"Harry -Bloody-Potter! You have guests! Get your sorry arse out here before I go in there to get you myself!" Snitch
hollered as he began to bang on another door. There was a few moments of silence before moving about was heard in
the room behind the door.

After a bit of waiting, a disheveled Harry emerged, Shirt missing, pants unbuttoned, and hair messier than anyone
could every remember it.

Both girls looked stunned and speechless.

Snitch laughed outright.

"Sorry Harry! Didn't realize you had a date tonight!" Snitch remarked as he sauntered over to the sofa to take a seat.
Harry growled and slipped from the room, making sure that the two girls before him couldn't see who was currently

huddled under the green silk bed covers in his room. (AN: Since I've already told you who Rile really is... Harry doesn't
want them to see because she doesn't keep her Illusion Charm on when they start snogging in the privacy of
their own room...)

But Ginny blushed. She knew who Harry was hiding in that room...

"What the hell are you two doing down here! Ginny, how did you remember?" Harry asked as he re-buttoned his
pants and took a seat in an overstuffed armchair by the fire.

Ginny laughed as she remembered what had taken place. "Well, McGonagall taught Hermione and Ron Legilimency.
So, Ron and Hermione taught me, Luna, Blaize and Pansy. We were in the Perfects common room playing around
with the Legilimency. Hermione hit me with the spell, and all she saw was blue eyes changing to green. Then she
heard 'Out of sight, out of mind' and then the eyes changed back to blue. She figured it out by herself and made me
remember everything that you had sealed away from my memory..."

Harry sighed. "Obviously, a memory suppressant charm won't work... Any ideas, Snitch?"

"Of course. Use a modified Secret Keeper Charm. They'll remember who we are, but won't -under Truth Serum or

Legilimency- be able to reveal what they know." Snitch said with a smirk.

Harry laughed. "I always knew you'd be useful."

Hermione and Ginny smiled. It was odd to see these two in the same room without insults and hexes flying at each
other. Just then, the door that Harry had come out of earlier opened a crack. An older looking house elf peered
through the crack, looking around the tidy common room. Resting it's eyes on Harry, it slipped through the crack and
shut the door behind it.

"Master, your friend is wanting to be free..."

Harry blushed deeply and began to rummage through his pants pockets. Finally finding what he had been looking for,
he handed a single key to the waiting house elf. "Tell her I'm sorry... I didn't think I'd take so long out here..."

The house elf nodded and headed back to the room...

"Well, about that charm! Who's first?" Harry asked, turning back to look at one shocked face, one amused face, and
one blushing face.

"Harry, is Rile under an Illusion charm too? If he is... who is he..?" Hermione asked when she finally found her voice.

Ginny choked and Snitch snorted. "Hermione, you really don't want to know... Now, who trusts me enough to put the
Charm on them?" he asked with an actual smile..


The Next Morning; Great Hall Breakfast Feast:


"Good morning, Students! Before we begin our wonderful breakfast feast, I'd like to remind all Fifth Year students
that they will begin studying for their OWLs within the next week! And for the Seventh Years, if you are wanting
to study for your Apperation Test, classes will be held here in the Great Hall at 7 P.M. this Thursday, Friday, Monday
and Tuesday. Please, do not be late!

"And with that said, Tuck in!"

The entire Hall broke out in conversations. And for a moment, Ron forgot that there was something that his girlfriend
and little sister were refusing to tell him...

"So, why exactly did you two run off like that last night? It was pretty weird, if you ask me." Ron stated
matter-of-factly with a mouth full of eggs and bread.

Hermione, Ginny and Luna rolled their eyes. "Really, Ronald! Don't talk with your mouth full! It's rather disturbing."
Hermione chided as she looked away.

Ron stuck out his tongue, then, swallowed his food. "Is that better, Hermione?" he asked with a snort.

"Yes, thank you!"

"Now, like I was saying, why did you two run off last night? We couldn't even follow you, you left so fast! Didn't
know which way you went..."

"I'm sorry, Ron, but we really can't tell you that!" Ginny replied with a grin, making her look oddly like the cat that
ate the canary...

"But-"

"Sorry, Ronald. We are physically unable to tell you what transpired after we left the common room." Hermione
stated in such a tone that ended all conversation about the matter.

Hermione smiled to herself and glanced up at the Head Table.

He was looking straight at her!

Long blond hair falling to his shoulders, crystal clear blue eyes... It was an amazing disguise.

Harry was back.

And that was all that mattered...

"Hermione? Did Professor Jynx just wink at you?" Ron asked as he pushed his now empty plate away from him.
'If that bastard is making the moves on my girlfriend, I swear on my brothers graves, I.will.kill.him.' Ron thought to
himself, an angry scowl on his face.

"Come on, Ron. We'll be late for our morning Classes." Hermione stated as she stood from her seat, picking up her
book bag, and giving one last glance to the occupants of the Head Table.

'I cannot believe that they are all here... after all this time, they were right under our noses!' Hermione thought as she
once again smiled at Harry.

'Hermione, you've got to stop doing that. People are going to begin to wonder about us. You wouldn't want that,
now would you?'
Hermione's face turned white. Was Harry talking straight into her mind?

'Yeah, Hermione. Brilliant, eh? All I need is to have eye contact with the person I want to talk to. But that limitation is
only until I get better at it. Go ahead and walk out of the Great Hall; I'll still be ably to talk to you for a while. You're
attracting attention.'
Hermione looked around her, and sure enough, Ron, Ginny and Luna were looking at her
strangely.

"Sorry, I guess I was daydreaming..." she said with a small laugh as she turned around and walked straight out the
Great Hall; not even waiting for her friends to follow.

'Good. Now, I just wanted to tell you that you need to pretend that you still don't like me. Too many questions will be
asked if you just suddenly see me as a friend. If you slowly warm up to me and the others, it will look less
suspicious to your classmates, alright?'


Professor Jynx' Common Room:


"... so, Snitch suggested a Modified Secret Keeper Charm. We even tested it with Legilimency." Harry was saying as
he began to rub a bruise potion onto Rile's wrists.

Rile nodded his head in approval. Taking Harry's hands in his own, and looking into those clear blue eyes, he made a
decision.

"Harry, would you like to use that charm on all of your friends? Maybe even on McGonagall...?" he asked quietly.

The pair of eyes before him flashed emerald green for just a second, and he knew that he had just made Harry very
happy.

"We'll call them all together tonight and tell them. I'm sure Balus won't mind... this can even be an advantage to us..."
Rile added as an afterthought. "Well, what are you waiting for? Classes are about to start! If you are late for your own
class, Balus will have a hissy fit."


Defense Against the Dark Arts; First Period:

Six letters were received before the first bell wrung, to six students who all happened to be in their Defense Against
the Dark Arts class.

Hermione sat, stunned at the letter that had just appeared before her.

Cautiously, she picked up the letter, opened it, and began to read.

'This letter has been received by seven people, concerning the whereabouts of one, Harry Potter.

Be in the Headmistress' office at 10:30 P.M. Sharp.

Please, store the place and time safely in your mind, As this letter will disappear five seconds after you have finished

reading it.

Until then,

-Professor Jynx'

Hermione's eyes widened in shock as both Ron and Neville jumped from their seats in surprise.


AN: Well, thats all for now! - Hoped you enjoyed, and remember... R&R! I live for Reviews!

Next Chapter:

Most of the Hall were on their feet, cheering Hermione on. Including the entire Head Table.

"And as for minding by own business, why don't you talk about things like that in the privacy of your own dorm! As
much as I hate to do this, Ten points from Gryffindor for talking bad about a Professor!"

Again, the Hall was enveloped in cheers as Professor Snitch looked on with awe. Hermione had defended him...

'But, she would she have done it if she knew who I really am...'? he asked himself. Looking on, he noticed that the
young girl was staring at him, so, he smiled, giving her a small nod of gratitude.

McGonagall held both hands out in a useless attempt to hush the noisy room. After a few minutes of getting nowhere,
She shouted that she would begin to issue out detentions if the students would not calm themselves.

As soon as the cheers had died down, Hermione took her seat, only to be tackled by Ginny.

"That was amazing, Hermione! I couldn't believe that was actually you talking!"

"Screaming is more like it..." Ron corrected with a huge grin.

Blushing, Hermione waved the comments off. She couldn't believe she had done that, herself...
Hermione was pulled from her thoughts as a slim hand made contact with her shoulder. Looking up, she saw a very
distraught looking Pansy, and immediately became concerned.
