Neville did a simple charm that conjured a large mirror for the girl to look in. The girl got up, her robes hung very loose on her, she walked over to the mirror. Then you heard a unearthly scream come from the girl, she stumbled back and sat in a ball on the ground mumbling something along the lines of, "This can't be happening, this can't be happening." Neville, Ron and Hermione went over to the girl and sat down beside her. The girl looked up at them. She stared into their eyes, she saw the truth. She immediately latched onto Neville and started crying onto his shoulder.
Neville just put his arms around the girl. Rubbing her back, when she stopped she asked "It is true isn't it?" Neville just nodded. The girl put her head down on his shoulder. Ron and Hermione looked at the girl, the girl had been Harry. But what had happened?
When the girl let go of Neville, she said "Lucky, we have a free now." She got up to go, her robes nearly fell off but she caught them and pulled them back up. She turned to Hermione "Could, you help me?" Hermione nodded.
Hermione and the girl walked off, they can back a bit later. Hermione's clothes were a bit tight on the girl but she didn't care. "Harry, what should we call you? I'm guessing you don't want to be called Harry, like this." The girl nodded. Everyone sat on Harry's bed, for a few minutes of silence everyone thought until Neville spoke up "Hey Harry, what about Heather Potter." When the girl heard that her face immediately brighten up, she jumped at Neville and gave him a bone crushing hug.
"Thanks for the name Nev'." Heather said when she released him, for some random reason she started to play with Neville's hair. Hermione looked at her questioningly, when Heather saw the look she immediately withdrew her hand, a faint blush appearing on her cheeks, much to Neville's disappointment.
"I guess we should go see Dumbledore about this, shouldn't we Heather." Ron said getting up, they all got up off Harry's bed, went down to the common room, they went through the portal. The group walk through the halls to Dumbledore's office, many of the male population stared at Heather(Remember she is Harry), she was so nervous about people staring at her that she grabbed Neville's hand, he looked down at her hand holding his, she smile nervously at him. He just smiled back and held her hand till Dumbledore's office. When they got outside the Stone Gargoyle, Heather spoke the password "Lemon Warheads."(I love the Warhead lollies) The others just looked at Heather, she shrugged. They walked into Dumbledore's office, "Lemon Drop?" Dumbledore offered, all but Heather refused. Heather took one and popped it in her mouth. The others just looked at her.
"What? I've grown found of them, the amount of times I've been in here." Heather spoke.
Dumbledore just look at the new girl. "I don't believe I've meet you. Ma'am."
"Dumbledore, would you believe if I said that she was Harry?" Ron asked the Headmaster
"No, for I don't believe someone can change gender in one class." The headmaster replied
"He wasn't with us in Charms, he wasn't feeling well. We went back to the Common Room, and we found her in Harry's bed. And she can still show you the scar." Hermione explained, Dumbledore nodded. Heather lifted up her fringe to show the scar, it was still there.
"Hello Harry..." Dumbledore started but was interrupted by Heather
"It's actually Heather Potter, now. I don't want to be called Harry in this form." Dumbledore nodded
"Very well Heather. I trust that you can get by on your own. And I'll make the appropriate changes. There will be an extra bed in the Girl's dorm with some pyjamas on it."
"Thank you Headmaster." They said in unison. They got up and started to leave.
"Oh, and Heather, tomorrow I'll arrange for you four to go shopping for new clothes. And take the rest of the day off." Dumbledore yelled before the door closed as the four walked out.
After walking for awhile Ron remembered something "Hermione, what did he mean by the four of us go shopping. I thought only Heather would have to?"
"No Ron, a girl needs many opinions, male and female, and we'll need yours and Neville's strength to carry all the bags." Hermione answered, both Ron and Neville blanched at the idea of carrying bags and going shopping for clothes for a whole day.
"Hey Nev' lets go to Library. I got some spells I want to study." Heather said will pulling Neville along by his hand.
"You know, Herm'. If I didn't know Heather was Harry, I would say they look cute together."
"Yeah, your right Ron." Hermione replied
At the Library
Neville is just sitting there looking at Heather while she's going through books on Defence spells, she has her head in a book, she looks up at Neville. "You know Nev'. You should really read this book." Neville just smiles and nods. Heather gets up and sits beside him. She whispers "We could practice in the Room of Requirement. If you wanted?" Neville nods and gets up.
Heather puts the book back on the shelf, they both were walking down to the Room of Requirement but on the way they were intercepted by Draco and group. "Look, it's the loser patrol." Draco smirked
Heather and Neville just kept walking, this angered Draco. "Hey, I'm talking to you."
"Malfoy, do you think we care about you?" Neville retorted
This angered Draco further. Then Draco and group cast several curses at the two, Heather managed to block some of the curses with a shield but Neville was hit, he fell to the ground.
Crabbe and Goyle picked him up, stood him against the wall, so he could watch what was happening. Heather was outnumbered six to one but she still fought, she took down four before she lost her wand. Draco and Blaise wands still pointed at her, she had backed up against the wall.
So they pelted her with spells, Blaise even encased her in a Cloud of Darkness. Neville could hear a whimpering coming from inside the cloud. Neville was so enraged, he felt a power built up in him. The curse on him suddenly gave way to the power inside Neville. He then cast a wandless bombarda on both Draco and Blaise sending them straight into the wall knocking them out. Neville then wandlessly dissipated the cloud of Darkness to reveal a battered Heather, she was crying from the pain, her tears mixed with the blood pooling below her.
Neville then tenderly picked up Heather and her wand, he took her down to the Hospital wing, with Heather crying on his shoulder the whole way, some of her cuts healing on the way down.
The next morning
Heather woke up to see a sleeping Neville in the chair beside her bed. She tried to get up but the pain from yesterday was to terrible, so she lay back on her bed. She rolled over so she could look at Neville without hurting herself.
Neville woke to the sound of giggling, he saw Heather looking at him, giggling. He sat up straight in the chair. "What's so funny?"
"I don't know, maybe because you looked cute sleeping like that," Heather said while blushing. Now it was Neville's turn to laugh. "Who's come to visit me?"
"Just Hermione, Ron and Ginny," Heather looked confused at why Ginny would visit "I told her, she needs to know were the great and famous Harry Potter went, and you trust her."
"Thanks Nev'," Heather replied "Don't we have to go shopping today." Neville nodded, Heather's face immediately brightened, forgetting about what happened yesterday.
