"Ara. Wake up. Wake up!"
"Hermione, I swear. Don't." Ara said and out her pillow on her head.
"Ara! Breakfast is ready!"
Ara sat up and saw Hermione dressed in her uniform. She was sitting on a soft bed with red hangings on the side.
"Oh! We're at Hogwarts!" Ara said, scratching her head.
"Yeah. Now, tell me. What did Umbridge want?" Hermione asked.
"She tried to make me tell where dad was." Ara whispered in response. Their other roommates were up and about.
"What happened?" she asked.
"She tried to make me drink some tea spiked with Verituserum. I knew it was coming so I didn't drink it."
Hermione sighed in relief. "No wonder the Order got you."
"Thanks 'Mione!" Ara said and got her clothes to take a shower.
An hour later, Ara left the bathroom feeling proud of her hair, which she spent forty-five minutes working on. Hermione was reading a textbook on her bed and looked up when Ara came out.
"Finally! What took you so long?" Hermione asked.
"My hair needs time to look this good." She said, gesturing her hair.
Hermione rolled their eyes and they went down. The Great Hall was filled with cheery talk. Ara walked to Harry and sat beside him so Hermione had no choice but to sit with Ron.
"Hey guys." Harry said.
"Sup Harry." Ara said, trying to be gangster.
Hermione sat down beside Ron. She reached out for the eggs the same time as Ron. Their hands made contact for about ten seconds before they pulled away, blushing. Harry and Ara smirked at them while giving each other low fives under the table.
"So, what did Umbridge want?" Ron asked, trying to change the subject.
"Well, she spiked the tea she offered me with Verituserum then asked me where Sirius was." she saw Ron and Harry's shocked faces and quickly continued. "I didn't drink it, of course! Constant vigilance!" she said, trying to imitate Mad-Eye.
After breakfast, the four walked down to the dungeons for double Potions, with the Slytherins.
"Do they really want us to kill each other?" Ara asked.
"That's what I said!" Ron exclaimed.
"They're not that bad!" Hermione said and glanced at a group of Slytherins waiting by the dungeon. They gave her the finger and she turned back to her friends.
"Never mind what I said." Hermione said and the group laughed.
The door to the Potions' classroom opened and greasy haired Snape appeared at the doorway. He glared at Ara and Harry as they walked in. Ara mouthed 'Lily' at him and he paled. She smirked at him and sat beside Harry, making Ron and Hermione sit together, again.
"Today, we will be making a draught of peace. Turn to page 265 and start working." He said, flashing the ingredients on the board.
Just when Ara was about to do the final stir, when Snape 'accidentally' bumped her, which made her stir two more times. The potion bubbled then exploded, making Ara, Harry and Snape get covered in the potion, some going into their mouths.
"Miss Black! Why did you stir the potion two more times than needed?" Snape demanded, trying to wipe off the potion.
"Because, Snivelly, you bumped me while I was stiring!" Ara yelled.
"How dare you use that name! How dare you talk back at me!" Snape yelled back.
Apparently, an uncooked draught of peace makes a person angry. Harry was restrained by Ron, so he wouldn't get in trouble too. Hermione tried to stop Ara, but she was so angry that Hermione was actually scared.
"You know what, Snivelly? I could just blurt out your secret right here, right now!" Ara said.
"You wouldn't dare." He said icily.
"Apparently, you do not know me." She retorted.
Snape opened his mouth then closed it several times before saying "Class dismissed."
Ara glared at the potions professor then took out her wand and said "Scourgify" then she was free of the potion. She did the same with Harry and the four left the dungeons.
"Snape has a secret?" Ron asked.
"Yeah. I can't tell thou. I was just using it to threaten him." Ara said through gritted teeth.
"Yeah, we still need to meet Snape later, for my Occlumency lessons." Harry said and Ara groaned.
After a boring History of Magic, was lunch. Umbridge was staring down the teacher's table and looking straight at Ara. Ara took advantage of this and did kissy faces to her.
"Why you so obsessed with me, Umbridge?" she called from the Gryffindor table. "You keep looking at me. I think you fancy me!"
The Gryffindor, Hufflepuff and some Ravenclaws erupted in laughter. Umbridge went pink and yelled "Detention!" then left the Great Hall, her face pink.
"You know Ara, I think you'll beat Fred and George's record for most detentions this year." Harry said jokingly.
"How many did they get?" Ara asked.
"Fourty." Hermione said crossly.
"I WILL MAKE SURE I GET TO FORTY THIS YEAR!" Ara said, raising a nonexistent sword.
"Well, you're in luck 'cauuse we have Umbridge next." Ron said.
"Damn."
The group finished their lunch and headed for the D.A.D.A. classroom. Ara and Harry were surprised that Hermione and Ron actually chose to sit together.
"Well, our plan's working, that's for sure." Harry whispered and they took the seat behind Ron and Hermione.
After a few minutes of chatting, Umbridge's office room door opened and she went down the stairs.
"Okay class, read chapter ten of your books." She said too sweet in Ara's opinion and sat on her desk.
Ara took out her book and opened it to chapter ten.
Defensive Theory: What to do when it's coming.
Ara sighed and read until she saw 'when the opponent is in front of you, try to talk to him or her and persuade not to fight.'
"WHAT IS THIS BLASPHEMY?" Ara said.
The whole class and Umbridge turned to her. The toad stood up and walked to her.
"Yes, Miss Black?" she asked in her sickly sweet voice.
"What's this?" she asked, holding up her book.
"That is a book." She said as if talking to a toddler.
"This isn't Defense Against the Dark Arts, you mad woman!" Ara said, slamming the book on her desk. "This is an book on how to be a sissy in front of death eaters!"
"Miss Black, that is enough! Another detention, tomorrow night!"
The Slytherins snickered and Ara sat down, glaring at Umbridge with great hatred.
As the day passed, the day got better in Ara's opinion, Charms, Transfiguration and Herbology was fun. By dinner, she was joyful and laughing at a joke Fred told.
"Come on Ara." Hermione said. "Time for your first detention with Umbridge."
Ara frowned and sighed. "Might as well get it over with. Can you prepare something for my hand when I get back, 'Mione? Please?" Ara asked.
"Of course." Hermione said, smiling.
Ara bid good-bye to her friends and walked to Umbridge's office. She was inside her pink, cat-themed room, drinking her cup of chocolate and smiling sweetly. There was a table and chair in front of hers with a quill and parchment on top.
"You will be doing some lines for me, Miss Black." She said.
Ara sat down and looked up at the toad. "What will I write?"
"I must not talk back."
Ara started writing. The ink was blood red. A pain started in her hand and she saw the words slowly being etched on it. She continued writing, trying to make her handwriting pretty since it would be stuck there forever. By the end of four hours, Ara was released. Blood dripped from her hand to the floor as she made her way up to Gryffindor Tower.
"Oi! Stop right there!"
Ara turned and saw a boy with platinum blond hair, Slytherin robes and a smirk on his face.
"Well look who it is! My dear old cousin! How many points should I take from you for being out after curfew?" He asked.
"Shove off, Malfoy. I came from detention." She said.
"Oh! Detention! Nice excuse. Fifteen points-"
"Yeah! 'Cause I would really carve words into my skin just so I wouldn't get caught by you!" she said, raising her bloody hand.
Malfoy paled and looked down at his feet. "Free to go."
"Thank you!" she said and marched up.
After telling the Fat Lady the password, she marched inside and saw Hermione with a bowl of yellow liquid.
"Dip you hand in here." She said.
Ara did as she was told and put her hand in the pee-looking liquid. The stinging in her hand stopped.
"Ah! That's better. Thanks Hermione!" Ara said, taking the bowl from her.
"No problem! Just keep your hand there for thirty minutes and you'll be fine." Hermione said and went out the common room to do her rounds.
She walked up the stairs to the boys' dorm, entering the 5th years. Harry and Ron were talking to each other from across their beds. Dean, Seamus and Neville were telling joke and laughing on Seamus' bed. They all looked at her when the door opened.
"Ara!" Harry said and jumped up to see her.
"Merlin, Ara! What has that toad done to you?" Ron asked, walking to her too.
"Blood quill. She made me write almost a thousand times." Ara said, showing her hand.
Ron and Harry looked disgusted. Ara saw Harry's and his was less deep than hers.
"Can I stay here until Hermione gets back?" Ara asked. "I don't want to be in my dorm alone with Parvati and Lavander." She shuddered, thinking of what they would be talking about.
"Bloody hell! My rounds!" he said and ran out the door.
All of them chuckled and Ara sat beside Harry on his bed. They talked about the D.A. some more and about Voldemort. She ate some chocolate frogs and Bertie Bots Every Flavor Beans.
"Hmm… I think I'll get this good looking brown one." Ara said and popped it in her mouth. She spit it in her hand and threw it out the window.
"What flavor was it?' Harry asked.
"Soil flavored." She said and drank some water from his side table.
A loud snore came from Neville. Harry and Ara looked at each other and laughed.
"Does he snore that loud every night?" Ara asked.
"Yeah. I try to sleep before he does to avoid the snoring." Harry said.
Ara felt her hand give a tingling sensation and she remembered her hand in the bowl. She took it out and placed the bowl in the side table.
"I'll just wash this gunk off." Ara said and walked to the bathroom.
She walked back to the room and saw that Harry was dressed in his pyjamas.
"Oh. You're going to sleep?" Ara asked.
"No. I just changed." he said and they continued talking about security measure for the D.A.
"Oh, can we not do the meeting tomorrow? I have detention with Umbridge." Ara asked.
"Sure. We'll need you in the lessons anyway."
"Hey Ara."
"Yeah, Harry?"
"I think you should go to sleep."
Ara nodded and said good night to Harry. She walked to her dorm and opened the door. Parvati and Lavander were still up, talking about boys like Malfoy and Harry.
"Seriously! Draco maybe mean, but he's really hot!" Lavander said.
"Yeah! His abs is so hot! And how about Harry? His arms are really great." Parvati said.
"Of course! He also looks so hot this year!" Lavander said.
Ara rolled her eyes, got some clothes and showered. She exited the bathroom in a shirt and sweats. The two boy-addicted girls were still talking about her cousin and Harry. She took out her wand and cast Silencio on them. They immediately shut up and Ara smiled.
"Good night, you two." She said and jumped in her warm bed. Falling asleep to complete silence.
