All herbs and potions in this chapter are made up by me.

"Miss Granger, Miss Granger, hello" shouted Professor Snape.

While this was going on Hermione was watching Ron 'come on say something anything you fool your making me look like a maniac, come on there can't be a stupid answer to your name.'Hermione thought to herself.

"Huh, oh Hermione that's me! "Said Ron surprised.

Hermione slammed her head onto the desk, 'he gave a stupid answer, and I am so going to die.' Ron watched Hermione as she banged her head on the desk time after time after time.

"Do you find this funny Mr Weasley" said Snape in his sneering tone of voice.

"No sir" said Hermione quickly while rubbing her head.

"Well then can you explain to me why you were banging you head off the desk?" Snape said with a sneer.

"I…..I….I …was…um-"

Then she was cut off by Professor Snape's hand banging off of her desk.

"Well since you can find no reason for your action Mr Weasley then that will be 25 points from Gryffindor" said Snape with a smirk.

"You can't do that!" said Hermione with force.

"I just did and for your cheek you can answer all the questions, right now from the pop quiz I was going to give out, the rest of you can watch Mr Weasley suffer." said Snape staring straight into Hermione's eyes.

'You are so going down, ha and I am going to look smart to none other than professor Snape, yes, yes, YES!' Ron thought to himself a smirk spreading across his face.

His thoughts were interrupted when he saw Snape's ugly face in front of him.

"Miss Granger I am going to ask you question each since you think that it is so funny." Said Snape finally.

"Ok let the quiz begin" said Snape.

Snape circled his desk once and then look straight at Hermione.

"Ok the first question for Mr Weasley, what is the name of the herbs used in the potion called, the wake of the living dead."

"They are called……..sufflesnout, laveray, dockside and remedial, is that right professor "said Hermione proudly like it was the easiest thing in the world.

Snape stood there gazing at her like it was unbelievable.

"How did you do that?" Snape asked.

"I……..I…….I um s-s-s-s-studied it" said Hermione stuttering.

" Well it looks like we have ran out of time today so we will test you next time Miss Granger" said Snape still standing as still as a ice.

When Snape finally walked out of the room in a huff of being made a fool of by one of his pupils, everyone gathered round Hermione.

"How did you do that that was amazing Ron you totally told Snape off since when do you know the answer to any question never mind a potions one" said Harry suspiciously.

"Well …um…oh…Hermione told me one night after his Quittich practice" said Hermione confidently.

" Oh Hermione told you no wonder you listened then" said Harry with a knowing smile.

" What do you mean by that Harry?" asked Hermione in utter confusion.

" don't play dumb with me Ron anyway come on we've got DADA next and I want to know who the teacher is." said Harry dragging Hermione to the next class.
