~after lunch~

"What did you need us for Mr Potter?" McGonagall asked.

"Straight to the point, aren't you professor. there are two things really. One,I saw you smirking earlier and was wondering if you were a relative of the Malfoy's, I've only ever seen that smirk on four people and they're all in this room and two, we need to get you check by Snape to see if dumb-as-a-door messed with you and Madam Pomfrey's mind." All the while Hermione was snuggling into Harry for warmth.

"In answer to your first question, yes I am related to the Malfoy's, I'm Lucius's older sister but e like to keep it strictly between family and close friends. There is no need to worry about mine and Poppy's mind being tampered with. But if you want we'll let Severus take a look."

" not that we don't trust you but it would make all of us more comfortable if you would." With that Harry gave a nod to Snape, within a few minutes of reading there minds Snape gave the young couple a nod.

"They're fine, Hermione, Harry."

" so, what's going on? You had me very confused at lunch and I'd like to know what's going on." Lucius was the one to answer her.

"Well sis, turns out Hermione here is Alya and Dumbledore needs to learn a lesson, also Harry's on our side and they both want to take the mark."

"Well that's great, when are you taking them to see Tom. Oh and I've suspected for a while that Hermione here was Alya, I just didn't know for sure." She turned to Hermione and smiled. "It's good to have you back." Hermione smiles at Minerva and they hugged each other tight.

"What made you think I was Alya. Not even mom and dad suspected that I was Alya." Hermione questioned.

"Let's just say you get your perceptiveness from me not your father."

~Hermione's P.O.V~

When aunt Minerva said that everyone laughed, even dad laughed.

"As always you're right, anyway in answer to your question we were going to get them their marks during the next hogsmeade visit which if I'm right you and Severus are supervising." Dad told her. Me and harry looked at each other and you could see the joy in his eyes.

"Mione you're smirking again. What are you planning?" Harry told me. A lot of the time it's useful for harry to be able to read me easily but at this point it's in time it's just annoying. I turned to him and whispered to him.

"I'll tell you later, but you'll have to wait until it's just me, you and Draco, ok." With that we both turned back to see everyone looking at the two of us weirdly. I stared at them and they all turned away to talk to each other.

~Time skip - 1 hour later~

Draco, harry and I were sitting in the Room of requirement talking and were getting to know each other then Harry suddenly turned towards me.

"You told me that you'd tell Draco and I what you were smirking about earlier. So tell us."

"Fine, but you can't tell anyone what I'm about to tell you, it might jeopardise the whole thing if an adult was to get involved." After I said this both boys nodded their heads, before I started I cuddled up to Harry and Draco sat opposite the two of us. "I'm planning to get revenge on dumb-as-a-door. On the next hogsmeade weekend I'm going to see his brother who owns the hogshead, I'll get him to tell me Dumbledore's weakness but I'll also tell him the plan. After that we'll use polyjuice and imitate someone so we can get our revenge."

"Sounds like a decent plan but why can't we tell Severus, he'll be able to help us out with the potion and getting us the hairs of people Dumbledore trusts." Draco asked me.

"If we tell Snape then he'll tell mom and dad and that'll ruin everything because then they'll tell people and it'll get back to Dumbledore. Plus the potion isn't one I've brewed before so we don't need help." I told him seriously.

"Fine but if this back fires it's on you." He told me with a resigned look on his face.

~Draco's P.O.V~

I swear to merlin, she may be my sister but she scares the hell out of me. While telling usher plan she looked murderous and at this point in time I almost feel bad for Dumble-dork. Key word in that sentence ALMOST, all I would say to him to a good luck. I was lucky that it was just a punch I got but he won't be as lucky. Somebody's gong to die and he should pray to merlin that it isn't him.

Hi guys, sorry I haven't updated in a while I've been busy studying for prelims and all that. I'm having writers block and I'm wondering if I should do it so that harry and Hermione meet Tom and take the mark in the next chapter or if I should get the three of them in the hogshead talking to Aberthorth then take the mark. Please comment which one you think that I should do. dont forget to review and tell me what you think, anything you can come up with would be helpful. Also sorry that it's short and if there are any grammar or spelling errors it's because it is currently 1:30 in the morning where I am and I'm tired, so again I'm sorry. Bye.
