This is an excerpt from the missing chapter from a while ago the only truly important thing that happened and that was Hermione and Ginny's friendship being mended.

"Ginny! Ginny? Please talk to me." Hermione said walking into the room that she occupied.

"Would you just leave me alone right now." Ginny asked.

"No I won't until you forgive me. Until we put this whole thing behind us."

"It won't happen I'm telling you it won't happen."

"Why not?" Hermione asked firmly.

"We...we grew apart."

"That's a load of bull and you know it. What's really eating at you?" Hermione asked.

"The same thing that's eating at Ron. How can you go and marry Harry and then pretend that everything is alright? It's not alright at least not for me. Things aren't meant to be this way. I'm supposed to be with Harry not you. It's not fair."

"This has nothing to do with Ron and you know it."

"It has everything to do with Ron you went and told me Ron that you wouldn't go out with him. He asked you why but did you answer him, no. You lied to him."

"I lied to him I admit it Harry admits it. Everyone admits that they lied okay but that's different. Ron I knew him longer I don't like him like that. You can't force me to go out with him just so that can pave the way for you to have Harry. I thought you were like my sister and that means a lot facing the fact that I have no other siblings. I might have stabbed you in the back in your mind but in reality I did nothing wrong. I'm standing here apologizing for who knows what reasons but I'm here doing that. Trying to patch up whatever friendship we have left if you would like to call it that."

"You went and took him from me. I had him and you were the one that helped me get him. He was mine and it was like you placed him in my hands for me to take. It's not right what you did and that's why I don't forgive you."

"Ginny you and I both can look at Harry. I mean we can both really look at him and what would you see. I honestly think that you would see the Boy Who Lived. I see beyond that and more. Sure I see what a handsome bloke his but beyond that he's this awesome guy who I've known since I was eleven and been my friend ever since. I know that I'd be there for hm and he will be there for me. On top of that I think that I made a mistake in judgement when I helped you get to Harry. I shouldn't have had to help you. You should of got him on your own with your charm not me behind you showing you all the right buttons to push. I also shouldn't have done that knowing that my feelings were mixed right then but what can you do?"

"You know I try to hate you. I really do and a part of me still does. I just I don't know I should be mad and believe me I am mad. I just think you have everything that sometines that you are almost perfect. You have the most desired boy at school, you have the best grades, and are the smartest enough to be wanted in Ravenclaw, then you changed over the summer and now you're even more beautiful than you were last year. What do I have left when you have it all. I know it's mighty selfish of me but through it all I've realized something."

"What's that Hermione asked out of curiosity.

"...that no matter what he'll always love you...and only you."

"So are we friends?" Hermione asked.

"Of course." Ginny said moving to hug her

A/N: This is the next chapter.

"Are you okay. You just seem to be sleepy a lot lately. You haven't been up late at night in the library have you?" Harry asked.

"So what...and I figured out how they got into Hogwarts."

"Can we do this later? We might miss the train." Harry said.

"Okay, I'll read it to you on the train."

"Where is everyone else?" Harry asked finally realizing how quiet Grimmauld was.

"They went ahead because they couldn't get you to wake up on time! Now are we forgetting anything?" Hermione asked checking over her bags to count them.

"No, I have everything...Hedwig...Crookshanks...and do you have Sophie."

"No I think she's hiding somewhere escaping Crookshanks. She's just a puppy and can't fend against Crooks. It's just in Crookshanks' nature."

They spent 15 minutes looking before they found her under the table. She was shaking furiously.

"Come on let's just apparate there."

With a pop they disappeared and reappeared at the train station then heard the five minute warning whistle. They scrambled into the train just as it pulled off.

"We made it!" Hermion exclaimed.

"Yeah," Harry agreed as they slapped their hands together. At that moment the train lurched forward as the speed increased.

"I can think of something else to do." Harry said as they both fell on the floor from the impact. "..but your too tired sooooo."

"Just shut up and kiss me and I'm not that tired.

Harry leaned forward and kissed her slowly as the train moved again as she rolled on top of him. She groaned as he pulled back.

"I needed that."

"I know so did I."

"It's just been stressful and..."

"Am I interrupting anything?"

They looked up and saw the compartment door they were now leaning against was were Ron decided that he was going to sit.

"Ron, why are you covering your eyes?" Harry asked.

"I heard sounds and realized that you were on top of each other so..." Ron stopped there hoping that they had gotten the picture.

"Ron this is the hallway, of a train, that's moving, with about 150 other students do you think that I would...that we would...right here? I can't believe that my best friend is such a... such a perve."

"I whatever are you coming in or not." Ron said the tips of his ears now red.

She picked up her bags and followed Harry into the compartment as they shut the door. Once they were settled and Harry remembered that she was going to tell him something turned to Hermione.

"So..Hermione you wanted to tell me something about how those people got into Hogwarts in the first place?"

"Oh right." Hermione pulled a book out of one of the bags and sat it in her lap flipping through the pages while talking about it."Well at first I was rereferencing the Sorcerer's Stone. I alwas thought it was interesting and well this book seemed to have all the answers."

"I thought you said the book said dark..." Harry interrupted before being interrupted himself.

"...and UNCOMMON. Now let me finish my story. I looked it up but then I realized that I wasn't looking at Sorcerer's stone but at Sorstice's Sorcerer Stone. I looked at it nevertheless and was shocked. See look at this." She opened the book on the floor so they could all see the picture of the stone and the wizard who had created it. Then she continued on

'page 334

The Sorstice Stone is very rare. So rare in fact that there is only one in existence. The properties of the stone are unknown but it is known to be the only stone in the world that is a combination teleporter/ timeturner. The maker of the stone is known as Izar Sorstice. He made the stone and publicized it well but was asked to destroy it after the Ministry of Magic found it to break many boundaries in the guidelines set by them including breaking through protection spells set by others to avoid the dark wizards. Sorstice however refused to destroy it and fled the country. Top aurors were sent after him but he was never found. This stone is very powerful and in the wrong hands it can be deadly.'

Hermione finished reading the story as she looked up to see all of their shocked faces.

"What does this mean?" Ron asked.

"It means that we are screwed. He already had enough power but if you add that stone to it he'll be even more unstoppable. I'm going to die."

"No Harry you're not dying at least not yet. Remember when you fell down at practice. There was no way that he had enough time to escape. If he had he was probably panicking he didn't do the job properly. He knew that he was going to be in trouble. Maybe he was chickening out I don't know but he most likely left it on the grounds somewhere. What's the closest thing that you can think of next to the Forbidden Forest?"

" Hagrid's Hut." Harry said slapping his hand to his forehead.

"We haven't talked to him all year!" Ron said.

"I haven't SEEN him all year. Did you even see him at the table?" Hermione asked.

"I feel really bad I don't even know if anything's alright with him. The only thing we can do is hope that he's somewhere with Grawp." Harry said in a low voice.

" Anyway...I think that we should find it as soon as possible before Voldemort comes back looking for it. If I know him he knows that they lost it. We can do two things with it we can destroy it so no one has that kind of power. We could also keep it safe to use it in case something goes wrong to use it as a way to make the world safe and the last thing we can do is use it as a lure to get him out of here." Hermione said.

"Twisted but I like it." Harry said.

"I knew you would." Hermione said. "The last thing we need to do is find out a way to get all the you know what's and destroy them."

"You know what I will talk to you about this later when some people aren't here." Harry said looking over at Ginny.

"Why can't I know?" Ginny said." I have a right to know what you guys are not telling me."

"Don't start before I start. For the last time you can't be there. I don't want you there. We don't need you there. So just back off. We may be friends now but that doesn't mean that we'll always be that way so stop pushing the line because I'm this close to going out of it and coming over there and telling you half the stuff I should have told you when we became friends again."

"Hermione you can't yell at Ginny like that." Ron shouted as Ginny started to cry.

"You know what I'm done. I'm done trying to be nice to you. I can't take this and when I tell you for the millionth time to stay out of something that isn't your own damn business to worry about. You put your own two cents in. Get a grip and understand that we can't tell you. I remember all the things that you said. You said you would try and that you would do the best you could when you said that we were friends again. I understood that everything isn't perfect between us but you sounded like you were trying. What happened?"

"I told you I would try...but that...that never meant that things between us would be alright. I told you exactly how I felt. You said how you felt and we both meant it. Things weren't written in stone."

Hermione was finished with listening to what she had to say.

"Where are you going Hermione?" Hary asked.

"I'm going to go find Sophie and Crookshanks they're hiding somewhere in the train. I need to find them and try to think...yeah I need to think about some things."

Hermione closed the door behind her as she started to walk off but after some thinking Harry went on after her insisting on finding out what was wrong with her.

"Hermione," Harry shouted after her.

"Yes, Harry." Hermione said her voice was remarkably calm. She kept on walking until she got to a compartment that was open and she walked in to see the chaos that was happening. Crookshanks and Sophie were chasing each other on the compartment floor as Hermione scooped up Crookshanks as he brushed near her legs.

"Naughty cat." she said as she held him.

"Don't just stand there pick up Sophie and let's go." Hermione snapped.

They walked back silently to their compartment.

"Hermione?" Harry asked quietly testing the waters asher mood had been up and down left and right the past hour.

"Yes Harry." Hermione said looking up from holding Crookshanks.

"Are you alright? You just seem... I don't know not yourself you just snapped at Ginny and have been changing moods like the colors of the rainbow lately. You would tell me if something was wrong wouldn't you?" Harry asked.

"Of course I would tell you if something was going on with me." Hermione started. Hermione raised her hand to his shoulder stopping him and forcing him to face her completely.

"The truth is I don't feel like myself maybe it's just a passing thing but something isn't right. I know me and you know me and I already knew something just isn't right with me right now. You confirming it though is what has me worried and its scaring me to death."

A/N: I typed and thought of all of this today and felt in the modd for writing htis seriously long update. For those of you who don't know the beginning part in bold is part of the chapter that got deleted when my computer crashed. It's not the same thing and trust me not as good as the original but I think it makes up for it. Besides that tell me what you think should be wrong with Hermione.

a) Hermione is just overreacting and nothing is wrong

b) she could be pregnant or is worried about being pregnant.

c) everything with b. but she is actually pregnant i.e. side effects

d ) whatever else you can think of that I haven't thought of other than those listed above.

Until the next update.
