Title: Hermione's Plan

Hermione sadly bottled the invigoration draught; she didn't want to leave Crookshanks with Professor Snape but understood there was no other alternative. "Thank you sir," she said weakly. "I hope this gives us time to find his killer."

"I wish to impress upon you Miss Granger that this arrangement is temporary at best," he answered smoothly. She perked up a bit at that and he added, "box the potions up and you may leave."

However, Hermione had a plan to gain more discussion time with Snape. Once the potions passed his inspection, she purposefully tripped shattering several bottles of potion.
