CHAPTER 5: First day of school, PART TWO

Anna made her way to transfiguration just in time. She spotted Hermione in the front and made her way to the seat next to her.

"Why don't you sit next to Harry and Ron?" Whispered Anna.

"I'm here to help you on the spells, remember?" Hermione asked.

Anna shook her head remembering how last night Hermione told her about classes and after class tutoring. Hermione notice how out of breath Anna was, and notice how red her eyes were.

"Are you alright, you looked like you just ran a marathon." Hermione whispered concerned.

Anna just shook her head as if it was nothing. " I had to get my wand, and I got back a little late."

Hermione didn't look convinced, "what about your eyes, they're all red and puffy!"

Anna rubbed her eyes and gave a nervous laugh. "Oh, uh, al-allergies."

Hermione looked skeptical, she was about to say something when professor McGonagall cleared her throat, looked pointedly at them and started her lesson. Class wasn't bad, Hermione earned 15 points for Gryffindor, and helped Anna learn two new spells. They made thier way through, Charms, COMC, Divination, and DADA. They were now making thier way to Potions, the class Anna has been dreading since the fight with her dad.

Anna and Hermione took a seat behind Ron and Harry, Anna looked over to see Malfoy smirking at her, in a taunting way as if saying, ' I know something you don't know'. Anna shivered and turned to Hermione. Soon enough Snape came plowing through the doors and took his position at head of the classroom. He and Anna locked eyes for a second before Anna broke the connection and looked down at her text book. Snape collected himself and began the lesson.

"Today we will be brewing an extremely difficult potion called 'Loin Dreato'. Can any of you tell me what it does?" He asked, Hermione waved her hand in the air, Snape just sneered and continued on. "It is a potion used to see into another's worst dream, you will not relive it, but your partner will see it, as will you thiers." He looked to see all the worried faces, especially Harry's. "Hopefully, you won't be too embarased." Snape ended in his famous sneer.

The class worked on the potion until the last forty-minutes of class. "Now it's time to test your," he looked over at Neville's foul smelling potion, "creation." He sneered, poor Neville blushed from his ears to his toes.

"Ready?" Hermione asked, Anna nodded and they both took thier portions. "Cheers." Anna said nervously, she and Hermione gulped it down and fell into a dreamy state.

Anna's POV

Anna looked around to see Hermione, Ron and Harry standing in a clearing, deep in the dark forest. She tried calling to them, but remembered that this was just a dream. All of the sudden a huge snake comes out of the forest. It was had to be a 350 foot snake!

She looked to Hermione to see tears streaming down her face. "HARRY, PLEASE HELP ME! I DON'T WANT TO BE PETRIFIED AGAIN!" She begged clinging to his arm.

Harry pried his arm away and looked at her in disgust, " Get away from me you mudblood! The only reason you were my friend was because you did my homework! Puh-lease Hermione, your so pathetic." He backed away, disappearing into the dark forest.

Hermione fell to the ground helpless, Anna wanted to run and comfort her but seemed to be stuck in place. Hermione looked to Ron and grabbed his hand."PLEASE RON HELP ME, I NEED YOU, I LO-LOVE YOU!"

Ron took a moment to study her, she smiled through her tears. "You love me?" She nodded. He then broke out into a harsh laugh. " You think that I could ever love a stuck up, bushy haired, ugly, disgusting, know-it-all mudblood! HA!" He pushed Hermione towards the snake. "Harry's right Hermione, you are pathetic." He then disappeared the exact same way Harry did.

Hermione buried her face in her hands and started sobbing, she heard a noise above her. She looked up to see two yellow eyes.

"HERMIONE!" Anna yelled.

Hermione's POV

Hermione looked around and saw Anna in a kitchen surrounded by a man with sandy hair and a woman who resembled Anna. The expressions on thier face didn't look to happy.

"HOW COULD YOU LOSE THEM ANNA!" The womand screemed. "MY BABIES, MY CHILDREN!" She finished sobbing.

"Mom," Anna tried to explain,"they were right behind me at the park, I turned around and they were gone!" She said tears streaming down her face, " I didn't mean to I-"

"Oh sure you didn't!" The man cut in, "We know you hated them from the day they were born!"

"NO!" Anna screamed, " I LOVE THEM! THEY'RE MY LITTLE BROTHER AND SISTER!"

"Half brother and sister, besides we knew you were jelous!" The man replied. The woman nodded through her tears.

"JEALOUS OF WHAT?" Anna asked outraged.

"Jelous of the love we showed them! Jealous of our family!" The man replied.

"What do you mean our family? I thought we were a family." Anna said a hurt look across her face.

Hermione tried to get to her but found herself frozen in place, she had to keep reminding herself this was a dream. It looked so real, so sad.

"NO! OUR FAMILY!" The woman yelled. "YOU WERE JEALOUS BECAUSE THEY HAD THIER MOTHER AND THIER FATHER!" She finished with a triumphant look across her face, as though she had just proven a point.

"I have a father." Anna said in a whisper, looking at the man. He just shook his head and glared.

" I MEAN THEY HAVE THIER REAL DAD! NOT A STEP-FATHER! " The woman yelled exasperated. "YOU COULDN'T HANDLE THAT! YOU COULDN'T LIVE KNOWING YOUR FATHER DIDN'T WANT YOU! YOU COULDN'T STAND WATCHING THEM BIENG HAPPY WITH THIERS!" She finished.

Anna crumpled to the ground, sobbing harder than ever before. The man and woman moved infront of her. "Pl-Please, I-I" Anna sobbed trying to get the words out of her mouth.

The woman looked down to Anna. "You know why your father isn't here?" She asked coldly. Anna just looked at her in disbelief. " I didn't leave him, he left me. I told him about you and he didn't want you! So it was your fault I lost him! Now it's your fault I lost my children!" She whispered harshly.

Things started to fade out, "ANNA!" Hermione yelled.

Anna and Hermione looked up and saw the rest of the class starting to come out of the daze. They looked at eachother, and the first thing they did was hug. "I'm so sorry." Hermione whispered. Anna just shrugged, "It was only a dream." She said.

Hermione looked around and motioned for Anna to listen, "err, did, you happen to see the one with the snake and Harry and Ron?" Anna nodded. " Uh, did you hear what I said to Ron?" She asked hesitantly. Anna looked confused, then nodded understandingly. "You promise you won't tell anyone!" Hermione asked worridly. "I promise Hermione." Anna said nodding, she notice the blush on her cheecks and laughed.

Snape stood up and said roughly, "class dissmised!" He rubbed his temples, he just 'happen' to look into Hermione's mind while she was watching the dream. This just made him feel worse about the fight, he stormed to his chambers. The potion's professor needed something to drink.

Everyone stood up and collected thier things. "You girls ready to go?" Asked Ron. Hermione jumped and started blushing even harder, she mumbled a small 'yes' and headed towards the door, Ron just shrugged and followed her. Harry came up to Anna, "what was that all about?" Harry asked curiously. Anna just laughed and said "nothing." With that they made thier way to the common room.

AWW poor Hermione and Anna, I know the hugging part was kinda cheezy, but eh, all friendships get like that. It's pretty obvious who Hermione likes, hehe. Soo who does Anna like? You will get a hint in the next chapter, also in the next chappie I might bring in old Voldie! ONLY IF YOU REVIEW! PEACE OUT!
