Never a Memory...

"The children seem, different this year."

Pomona blinked sleepily over her morning cup of tea at Minerva, holding back a yawn at the early hour. "What do you mean Minnie? I mean they are all growing up. They're bound to change a little."

"No, this is different. I half expected Miss Granger to be frantic this year, but she's acting more like, a primadonna or something. Almost like Parkinson or the Patil twins. She's getting the work done, but something about her attitude is so strange this year."

"Ms. Granger's not the only one," Filius offered, pulling himself up into a chair next to his fellow teachers. "I've noticed that a lot of the children are a little strange this year. Ms. Bones is very quiet, although with what happened to her poor Aunt, I'm not too surprised. Mr. Thomas has gotten very quiet as well, although it seems to be helping him with his silent casting."

McGonagall shook her head. "Severus doesn't know this, but I was in his class when he was teaching Mr. Potter's group. I was worried my Gryffindors would do something, drastic. But it was disturbing, how calm some of them were when Severus pulled out the pictures of Dark Curses and the Inferi. Ms. Granger and Mr. Potter almost looked like, they had seen it before."

"You've see one zombie movie, you have seen them all."

"I've never seen a zombie movie. I was thinking of the G clones."

"Oh Harry, you poor depraved child. We are going to have to fix this eventually." Hermione grinned, ignoring the Clones crack, and it was Genesis shining through. "Let's just say, it's a good thing you relocated the Masamune."

"Why?"

"Either decapitate the creatures, or kill it with fire."

"Kill it with fire?"

Solemn nod. "Kill it with fire."

Harry grinned softly, holding up a hand, Fire dancing over his fingers. "I think I can do that."

"Hey, that's my trick!"

"I don't see your name written in the flames," the young man joked, releasing the magic gently.

"So, think you've learned a few new parlor tricks, Potter?"

Harry just grinned as he looked over at Hermione. "Did you here something?"

Draco fumed as the pair ignored him. "The wind sails over the water's surface, quietly but surely. Well, not as quiet as it could be I guess."

"Oh wind? I thought I smelled something foul."

Draco sneered at the pair, wand dropping into his hand. "Do not ignore me! Or else I'll give the Mud blood a scar to match your own Scar-head."

Green eyes were steely as Harry stared the blond down. Hermione was just as stoic as she flanked the young man, hand tapping against her hip in a now familiar gesture. She wanted the Rapier in her hands, wanted to cut this boy back down to size. "You so much as touch us, and I'm sure the Ministry would love to hear about your own little Mark. Tell me, did it hurt like a real tattoo, or did he make it feel like the Cruciatus Curse?"

"You can't prove a thi-"

"Can I?" Harry smirked as the blond quieted, wand slowly lowering. "That's what I thought. Now, leave."

A snap back to his normal antagonistic self. "And what makes you think you can order me around?"

At this, Hermione grabbed Harry by the arm, pulling him away."Ignore him, he's a waste of flesh," she sneered, arm glowing softly. Harry was the only one who caught the glow, as it was hidden by his own body.

The blond sneered as the pair tried to walk off. "Reducto!"

Only for nothing to happen. Hermione smirked innocently over her shoulder as the blond frantically tried to curse the pair. "what's the matter Draco. Having, difficulties? Can't get it, up?"

"Hermione, so foul!" Harry held back a smirk. "It's not his fault he's so inbred. It's his parents fault for marrying cousins. Tell me Drake," he had the evilest look at this point. "Does your family tree fork at all? Or are you destined to marry a first cousin too?"

The pair struggled to keep straight faces at the foul look on Draco's own face. "Wish you better luck Dragon-boy!" Hermione snickered as the SOLDIER pair wandered off as fast as they could and still look nonchalant.

Only for them to both break down as soon as they passed the corner. "What, what did you do to him?" Harry gasped.

Hermione snickered as she pulled back her sleeve, revealing the Seal Materia on the Shinra Beta, the yellow crystal winking happily at him. "I Silenced him. It'll wear off in a few days, but until then, he's impotent!"

Harry winced minutely at the 'I' word, but grinned nontheless. "Hermione, you are just scary brilliant," he offered as she pulled the sleeve of her robe back over the armlet.

"I do try."

"Mr. Potter?"

The pair looked up at the sound of McGonagall's voice, trying to keep straight faces as they overheard Draco's angry wailing from around the corner. "Yes Ma'am?"

The woman had a severe look on her face, but the pair could see the twinkle in her eyes at the melodramatic wailing from the Slytherin. "The Headmaster wishes to speak to you."

"We didn't do it!"

The stern woman was opening smiling now at the chorus. "No, it is something else, not Mr. Malfoy's little issue."

The pair relaxed, Harry nodding. "I'll be right up, thank you."

"You'll be right up?" Hermione asked as their Transfiguration Teacher walked off, going to check up on the angry Slytherin. "And what, Mr. Potter, makes you think I'm just leaving you after hearing that?"

The young man blinked, but smiled after a second. "Of course you're coming. My best Commander cannot be left out of the war meeting."

"Do you know what this is about?" she asked as they headed towards the Gargoyle statue.

"Not sure. But I have an idea." Harry offered, fire dancing gently around his fingers again as he played with his new technique. He could feel his control over his magic improving every time he tapped in to the Materia, even for something as trivial as this. "I told you and Ron about the Prophecy last year, remember? I think, he's finally giving me information about our enemy that we desperately need." The Fire dissipated with a wisp of smoke. "And if he is, I want you with me. I'd want Ron too, but I don't know where he is right now." He nodded to her as they reached the Headmaster's gargoyle. "I don't care what I have to do according to this Prophecy, I'm going to need help. And I remember you were good." He grinned as the gargoyle moved to the side, Dumbledore obviously knew they were there. "So, are you going to come? Or do I have to fill you in later?"

Hermione just grinned as they headed up the spiral staircase. "And what, makes you think I'm going to let you out of my sight? Knowing you, you'll go off on another adventure, and leave the rest of us behind. Again."
