Title: No Desertion
Acting on fear driven adrenalin Hermione snatched up the book and lunged towards Crookshanks. Crookshanks, she thought as her heart fell. How could she desert her Crookshanks but what of the Professor? He seemed more angry than anything else, but the aura now that was a puzzle. Yes, she could handle points and detention for her Crookshanks.
Hermione gathered her Gryffindor courage and switched from flight to fight. She would deal with Snape and she pulled her wand, just in case.
"No Professor, I will not go. I need your help and I want answers," she stated with tremulous boldness.
