A/N: Hi again guys well here's chapter two, I hope you enjoy it. R&R.

Chapter 2:

"Dobby must be takin' miss to see Headmaster dumblydore please come come" the little creature squeaked as it pulled the reluctant girl forward.

"Dobby?" Harry wondered as he and his friends went to breakfast, "no it can't be, Dobby doesn't want to be bonded to wizards, he wants freedom."

"Come on harry I'm starving here" Ron moaned "I am at deaths door and only a hearty meal shall satisfy the reaper." Ron added with a chuckle. Harry and Hermione both exchanged exasperated sighs at their friend's exaggeration.

"Ron?"

"Yes Harry?"

"You are really weird in the mornings!"

"All the more reason to take me to breakfast" At this all three feel into quiet chuckles at their foolishness and moved to the great hall for breakfast.

"Miss Granger the headmaster has requested your assistance on an important matter" Professor McGonagall began while handing out the Gryffindor timetables "if you could kindly attend to it now you will be excused from classes until it has been dealt with, thank you."

Ron and Harry sent Hermione envious glances as they saw their first class was double potions with the slytherins. She rose immediately to escape the glares and left the hall just as the deafening flapping announced the arrival of the post.

"Enter" Hermione heard the Headmaster speak as she gently knocked on his office door. She entered the room to find Dumbledore sitting behind his desk with his eyes twinkling as usual and, to her surprise, the girl from last night, sitting in a defeated position in one of the chairs before Dumbledore.

"Ah Miss Granger, so glad you could join us" he chimed joyously, his eyes still with the patented twinkle. "lemon drop?" he offered.

Hermione politely declined thinking "its 8:15 in the morning!!"

"Straight to business then" he began swiftly after satisfying his own sugar craving, " Well Miss Granger, as Head Girl I was hoping I could count on you to show your new classmate around?"

"This is Isabelle Gallen; she shall be joining us here at our family in Hogwarts, she was into Gryffindor last night upon her arrival."

"Of course Headmaster, I'd love to show her around." Hermione answered her face glowing with curiosity. She only now noticed Isabelle has donned Gryffindor robes this morning.

"Wonderful, she shall be in all of your current classes for the moment but after she has settled in we shall reassess the situation." Dumbledore chuckled aware of the questions Hermione was dying to ask. "Now if you hurry you should be able to finish whatever assignment Professor Snape has decided to "settle" you in the year with.

"Miss Gallen, we shall speak again at the end of the week about your settling in. Now enjoy your day girls, you wouldn't want to keep Professor Snape waiting" he added with a smirk.

Isabelle had sat throughout the meeting without speaking one word, she now moved to the door without a backwards glance, Hermione swiftly moved to follow her.

"Well it's nice to meet you, potions is held down in the dungeons so if you'll just follow me..." Hermione said wanting to break the silence.

"Sure lead the way, oh and, please call me Izzy." Isabelle mumbled quietly.

The two girls promptly descended to the dungeons as Hermione didn't want to miss class.

"Your late Miss Granger, ten points from Gryffindor." Snape sneered as he spotted her enter the classroom.

"I'm sorry Professor Snape but the Headmaster asked me to show Isabelle around today." As Hermione finished the class rose their heads as one to the new girl standing in the doorway. The girl reddened at the sudden attention and dropped her gaze to the floor.

"Be that as it may, Miss Granger, you undoubtedly took your time getting here so the points will remain taken off. Now sit down and get to work before I get annoyed." Both girls immediately sat down.

Hermione led the way to a spare two seater desk near Harry and Ron at the back of the classroom and set up hers and Izzy's work station. Izzy now became aware of the many eyes on her, quickly sending a few choice glares around the room the students promptly turned to their work. One boy even giving her a fearful glance, at this Izzy failed to suppress a giggle.

"Is something funny, Miss Gallen?" Professor Snape enquired loudly as he swept across the room to her.

"Oh no professor I was just looking around, potions looks intriguing." Izzy answered him, with a glint in her eye.

The professor seemed to notice said glint and frowned, "Well ten points from Gryffindor for delaying the class now take a seat and begin your work." He growled. "Honestly another dunderhead put into my class like I didn't have enough to do, I don't know why the Headmaster thought you would be able to handle this high level course." He added quietly as he turned to the front of the room.

This declaration earned Snape a deadly look from his new student "Well I don't know either sir, I mean it's not like I asked to be here." With that heated statement, the girl spun on her heel and swept from the classroom, her robes billowing in an astounding replica of the professor before her, leaving the door open after her.

The class looked on in amasement as their normally fierce professor watched her leave without losing his cool. In fact the only sign Snape gave that he witnessed the event was to follow her to the door and call after her retreating form "Remember Miss Gallen, do not attempt to leave the grounds" With that he calmly returned his desk after barking at the class to resume their work and of course, taking ten more points from Gryffindor.

Harry, Ron and Hermione left potions with a free period before them, with the free time they decided to spent some time with Hagrid although much to Hermione's dismay "We have to find Izzy." On the way down, after calming Hermione, Ron and Harry gave Hermione her Daily Prophet which had arrived that morning after she left the hall.

"There's an article in there your gonna wanna read." Ron told her with a strange look on his face.

"Oh no, what has Rita written this time, let me guess I'm pregnant with Harry's child while he is still crazy, his new hoppy being dancing naked in the Great Hall with Snape and Filch?"

"Why mione why my ears, my mind. The images!!!" Ron screamed dramatically.

"What mind?" Harry retorted.

"Oh my god..." Hermione breathed.

"I guess she read the article Harry."

"Ya think" Ron blew a raspberry in reply.

A/N: Well what do you think??? Common hit that button r&r, I can't get better if I don't know what's wrong, just remember please, criticism in a productive manner. I don't want any flames you don't like it don't read it, simple solution.
