HPOV

SECOND YEAR

I was currently on the train for Hogwarts to start my second year, and I can't seem to find Harry or Ron anywhere. I have Draco so I'm kind of okay but I haven't seen my other two friends since we went our opposite ways from the train station, and I had Draco staying with me and dad for two weeks just a little over a week ago.

I walked through the train in the search for the two boys, I looked into compartments and then I saw a girl, who had red hair and shared some of the same facial features to Ron. I'll go out on a whim and say that she's Ron's younger sister, Ginny.

I knocked onto her compartment door, just like I did a year ago to this day. She jumped at the sudden noise and spun around to face me. She got up and opened the door, "Hi, I'm Ginny. Do you not have a seat? You can sit with me if you want." She said staring up to me wide eyed.

"Oh no I'm fine. You don't happen to be Ginny Weasley do you?" I asked her, biting my lip.

"Ugh, yes I am. Why do you ask?" She asked me, confused.

"I'm Hermione Banner, I don't know if your brother talked about me but we're friends and I can't seem to find him or Harry." I told her.

"Oh, you're the American girl. Yeah he spoke about you at home and in letters home. Harry and him were right behind our mum and dad but we were running a bit late this morning so I didn't have time to see if they got through the wall. I'm sure they got through and onto the train on time. Have you looked in any of the other compartments? They could be with the twins." She explained to me.

"Okay, thanks for your help." I said to her and gave her a smile and then walked back to the compartment that I was sharing with Draco and Blaise.

"Did you find double trouble?" Draco asked me when I walked back into our compartment, reading a book.

"Nope, they're not on the train at all." I told him annoyed.

"Wonder where they could be." Blaise mused out loud. I nodded in agreement and began to look out the window, to see the two boys in question driving a car in the air above us. I just looked up to them, shaking my head and sighing. Of course they would take the stupid dangerous route to get to school.

******HB******HB******HB*** ***HB***Time Skip***HB******HB******HB ******HB******

Harry began to run off down the corridor, Ron and I following him. He was claiming that he could hear a voice saying they were going to kill and Harry with his 'heroism' must go and save the poor soul from their death.

We ran around a corner to hit a T pathway. It was very dark in the corridor, and then as we walked closer the lights got brighter. The ground was covered in water, Moaning Myrtle must have flooded the bathroom again. We then looked at the wall in front of us. There was writing on the wall written in red and beside it hung Mr Filch's cat Mrs Norris.

"Enemies of the Heir beware." We said in unison we looked at each other scared.

"And that's Filch's cat." Ron pointed out.

"Harry it's written in blood." I pointed out.

It must be the end of dinner because people began to come down the corridor to go to their dorms and they looked and gasped and began to whisper to their friends about what happened. They crowded around us.

"Enemies of the Heir beware?" I heard a nasally voice come from the crowd, two guesses on who that is.

"You'll be next mudbloods." Pansy Parkinson finished, and she stared at me. Parkinson has it in her head that both of my parents are muggles and I'm a muggleborn but Draco has looked into it and told me that my mother was from a pureblood family and was indeed related to Sirius but not related to Draco because my mother is Sirius' cousin through his mother where Draco's mother is related to Sirius through his father's side of the family.

Dumbledore then made everyone go back to their dormitories, except Harry, Ron and I. We were questioned as to why we were in the corridor, and surprisingly Snape commented on the fact that we were simply in the wrong place at the wrong time and then he commented on not seeing Harry a dinner and then Lockhart gave Harry's alibi because Harry was stuck in detention with him, part of his and Ron's punishment for driving to school and being seen by muggles doing it and my dad was one of them.

******HB******HB******HB*** ***HB***Time Skip***HB******HB******HB ******HB******

I was in the library with Draco looking up about the chamber of secrets to find out what the monster that Salazar Slytherin placed in the castle. Harry had found evidence that pointed to Hagrid but Hagrid is too nice to know what the creature is or how to control it.

It turns out Parkinson was right, it is going after the muggle-borns and everyone thinks that the heir is Harry because he is a parselmouth, which he did in front of everyone at Lockhart's stupid duelling club because Parkinson had let loose a snake and it went for Justin Finch-Fletchley, Harry spoke to it in parselmouth and because only Slytherin or one of his descendants had the gift, everyone immediately pointed the finger to Harry.

Draco stayed being friends with me, and he said that he doesn't believe that Harry is the heir of Slytherin because of the information of what his father was telling him about how the last heir of Slytherin was at the school fifty years ago and he didn't have any children nor did he have any living relatives to pass on the heritage.

Draco had a massive book sitting in front of him as did I; we were looking through all the possible creatures and crossing out the ones that seemed too obscure. It was getting late into the day and Draco had an astronomy class at night, so he needed to leave to get something to eat and get some sleep to be ready for the class.

I continued through the books, making a list of possibilities and narrowing it down as I went all. What I to go off on is; petrifies at the look, spiders flee from whatever it is and it moves between the walls. There were a few that ticked a box but it was the spiders fleeing that I couldn't match up. I was getting to the snake section of the book, when I found it. The creature is a Basilisk. How didn't I think of looking at the snakes at the start? Slytherin's house symbol is a snake and in the book it called the basilisk the king of the snakes. But how was it moving through the walls?

Or what if it wasn't even moving through the walls but through the pipes. I looked around the library to check no one was looking at me or over in my direction. I quickly tore out the basilisk page and wrote onto it 'pipes' to remind myself of how it was getting around. I quickly tided up my table and put the books back into their spots and looked through my bag for my mirror that uncle tony got me for my birthday this year.

I took it out and held the piece of paper in my hand and walked out of the library. I wanted to go and tell Draco first thing that I figured out what it was, I held out the mirror so that if it moved I could see it and not get petrified from it, but it seems to just be going for muggle-borns so hopefully it won't come for me.

I was being careful as I made my way from the library down to the great hall, I looked around me checking all possible places the snake could be. I got down two floors, I only had a few left to go when I looked down into the mirror to see a large yellow eye looking into it and the next thing I know my body locks into place and I'm on the floor. I was petrified and Harry and Ron don't know what the creature is and I'm the only one that knows. My dad is going to break his clean streak of not turning into the hulk when he finds out. I just know it.


THIRD YEAR

"Are you sure you're fine with going back this year?" Dad asked me, he's been freaked out since the incident that happened to me last year.

"Yes dad I'm going to be fine. It was my fault that I was petrified in the first place, I shouldn't have had the mirror out looking out for it." I told him.

"Alright, do you have your trunk packed? I'm really sorry that I can't go to the station with you this year Mia but Tony sent me a message the other day saying that the government is close to finding out where I am, especially with my incident last year." Dad said to me, hugging me. You see, I was right about him breaking his clean streak. He nearly broke Harlem, well from what Uncle Tony told me.

"I'm fine daddy. Take a deep breath. It'll all be fine." I told him placing my hands on his shoulders.

"I know but I always have been the one to bring you to school on your first day no matter what, I know I can't physically drop you off at school anymore now but at least I could bring you to the train and say my goodbyes there." Dad explained to me.

"I know daddy, but I'm becoming a big girl now and I need to do more things independently now." I told him.

"You may be catching up on my height but you'll still be the little girl that thankfully landed into my life." He told me and gave me a side hug.

"I know daddy you tell me all the time." I then gave him a kiss on the cheek.

"Now you have enough money to get your school supplies and I wrote to Mrs Weasley, she's going to be looking after you for a few days and bringing you to the train station. And you're meeting Draco yes?" He checked with me.

"Yes daddy and if I need more I can get some transferred from my emergency account that Uncle Tony gave me. Draco is inside the pub waiting for me." I told him.

"I love you Mia, don't forget that." He said and gave me a final kiss on the forehead.

"Love you too daddy." I said and gave him a final hug.

"I'll see you later, yeah?" He said and smiled.

"Yeah, see you later." I told him and I lifted my case and bird cage and made my way into the Leaky Cauldron. And just as I told my dad Draco was sitting beside the door. But before I opened the door, I turned around to look at dad and gave him a wave and blew a kiss. He waved back and pretended to catch it and put in it into his pocket. I then turned back to the door, gathered my things took a deep breath, opened the door and walked through.

******HB******HB******HB*** ***HB***Time Skip***HB******HB******HB ******HB******

Harry turned up at the Leaky Cauldron the night before the Weasley's came. Draco and I went and bought our school supplies after I had left my things in my room at the Leaky Cauldron, and I bought my ginger half-Kneazle cat, Crookshanks. And I found out that my cousin, Sirius Black had escaped from Azkaban prison and Harry told Ron and I that Sirius was after him to finish what Voldemort was meant to do, so I decided to not tell them that I was related to him and was my godfather.

In the Daily Prophet, they had written about his escape and where he had been spotted. And there was also posters dotted around every wall possible with his prison picture of him on it. The story is that he had found out that Voldemort had been vanquished by Harry and was in such a state of distraught went and murdered one of his best friends, Peter Pettigrew –leaving just his finger behind- and also murdering 12 muggles in the process.

The only two people that know of my relation to Sirius Black are Draco and my dad, Harry hasn't a clue about it. But during my stay at the Leaky Cauldron with Harry and the Weasley's, Crookshanks can't stop chasing Ron's god awful rat about the building. I started up a friendship with Ginny, it's nice to have a friend who is a girl.

******HB******HB******HB*** ***HB***Time Skip***HB******HB******HB ******HB******

We were late for the train to school, so when we got there and on to it, most of the seats were full up of people. I would have went and sat with Draco but he's at the other side of the train so I'm stuck with Harry and Ron. We found a compartment that had a man sleeping in the corner of it. There was no better seats so we had to take it.

We walked in and put all of our things in the racks above us and Harry told Ron and I what Ron's father told him about Sirius Black in the Leaky Cauldron about him coming after him and not to go looking for Black. Ron was curious as to whom the guy sleeping next to Harry was, and I could see his suitcase that had his name on it. "Professor R.J. Lupin" I told him and he started to give off about me knowing everything when I told him that the professor's name was on his suitcase and then Ron went closer to the window in the compartment and put his hand against the glass to get a closer look out.

"Somethings moving out there." He said and gave a scared glance to Harry and I and then from where his hand was against the glass, ice began to form and made its way across the whole window and went on to freeze the professors drink. Then the whole compartment began to get very cold, so cold we could see our breathes, then the lights began to flicker and go out. It was very silent across the whole train as everyone didn't know what was going to happen.

We sat in our compartment in silence, staring at each other. You could hear the whisperings of other people in their compartments but we still didn't make a noise. Then there was a noise in the hallway of the train, it was a very loud wind noise and everything in the compartment felt and got colder, and then the latch that closed the compartment door unlocked by itself and I felt my eyes get bigger, in fear. Then the door opened and long fingers of a skeletal, black hand clamped itself to the door and pushed it open and then a black sheet figured being flew into the compartment and looked around at each of us before turning to Harry and flying above him and began to make a suction noise and a light began to stream from Harry's face to the ghostly being's what I'm guessing mouth and then the man in the corner jumped up and a blue stream of light came out his wand and formed a shield against the creature that moved away from Harry and back out of the door, and once it left, Harry passed out.

"What was that?" I asked the professor.

"That was a dementor."

******HB******HB******HB*** ***HB***Time Skip***HB******HB******HB ******HB******

"Use your inner eye to see the future!" I exclaimed to the boys in a floaty voice, imitating our Divination professor. "Science can help tell the future perfectly, now Ancient Runes that's a fascinating subject." I said normally.

"Just how many classes are you talking this year Hermione?" Ron questioned.

"A fair few." I told him, I was actually taking all of the classes that were provided this year to help figure out what I wanted to stick with in the next year, Draco was the only one that I trusted with that information though because he was doing the same, seeing as Professor McGonagall gave us the permission to do it seeing as we were the top students in every class.

"Wait, Ancient Runes is on the same time as Divination. You would need to be in two places at once." Ron claimed to me, very confused.

"Honestly Ron, who could be in two places at once?" I turned around a told him, and we continued our trek to Hagrid's hut to start our class of Care for Magical Creatures.

"Closer everybody, come on. I've got a real treat for you all today." Hagrid said to everyone once we got down to his hut. We then followed him into the forest, with some of the other students asking Hagrid questions on the class and what the treat was. Harry, Ron and I walked in the middle of the class following Hagrid further into the forest before he stopped at a clearing.

"Alright, I want you all to open up your books now and turn to page 49." Hagrid told us.

"And how exactly do that?" Draco called out.

"You stroke the spine of course." Hagrid explained as if it was the easiest thing to figure out.

"I think they're funny." I said whilst I took my book out of my bag, it opened its eyes and stared at me and I then ran two fingers along the spiked spine, removed the belt I had to keep it closed and book opened up by itself.

"Yeah they're really funny, just wait until my father hears this oaf is teaching classes." Draco said beside me.

"Draco, stop being rude about Hagrid." I told him, setting my book onto a boulder.

"You know I have never liked him Herms, don't make me change now." He told me, placing a hand on my shoulder.

"Draco move away from her!" I could hear Pansy call out, Draco gave me a look to say he was sorry and moved away from me because he knew that Pansy wold have told his father about their friendship and he didn't want to lose Hermione.

I quickly flicked to page 49, but before I could have a good look at it Hagrid had come back from around a tree and said "Dun-dun-dun-da" and held his arms up to showcase the magical creature standing in front of us.

It was bigger than a horse, it had the head, wings and front legs of a bird but had a horse's body, back legs and tail. It had grey feathers and short grey fur. "Everyone meet Buckbeak." Hagrid introduced us.

"That's a hippogriff." Someone said behind me.

"Yes, now, Hippogriff's are very proud creatures so I need you all to be careful," Hagrid told us, "Now who would like to come and say hello?" He then asked and everyone took a step back but Harry, because he wasn't paying attention. "Ah Harry, thank-you for volunteering." Hagrid said, which pulled Harry out of his daydream.

"Now Harry you need to bow, and wait for Buckbeak to bow back and then you will be able to stroke him, and well if he doesn't bow back, we'll come to that." Hagrid said to Harry. Harry took a bow to the Hippogriff, "Lower Harry," Hagrid told him and Harry bowed down even lower and Buckbeak threw up his front legs to defend himself, "Harry back off." Hagrid said and Harry took a step backward and stepped onto a stick snapping it and Buckbeak then bowed back to Harry.

"Alright Harry, put your hand out and slowly make your way to Buckbeak, you can stroke him now." Hagrid told Harry, who tentatively made his way over to the hippogriff with his hand stretched out in front of him, when he placed his hand on the creatures head, it tilted his head into Harry's palm and Harry began to stroke him, "He likes you, now you can ride him." Hagrid said and Harry began to protest but Hagrid lifted him up and placed him onto Buckbeak and said about not pulling on his feathers and then Hagrid smacked the animal on the backside and he took off galloping and then stretched his wings out and took off, the rest of the class looked on in awe of the creature.

******HB******HB******HB*** ***HB***Time Skip***HB******HB******HB ******HB******

"Ron!" Harry and I screamed as we watched or friend be pulled away from us and to the whomping willow by a grim. Harry and I ran after him just to watch him be brought into a hole that was at the bottom of the tree stump. Harry and I ran towards the tree and then it began to move again and tried to defend itself from Harry and I, and its branches swung madly at us, knocking us off of our feet, but when it swung at us, I grabbed on to it and clung to the branch and when it swung close to Harry I grabbed him and threw him into the hole in the tree and then I jumped in after him.

We looked around ourselves, it was dark and had a musty smell to it, but we felt our way around and I felt a banister, and I could smell Ron's blood, I pointed it out to Harry and we made our trek up the staircase. "Hermione, where are we?" Harry asked me when we were half way up the rigidity staircase.

"We're in the Shrieking Shack." I told him and we continued to make our way up, and I could hear Ron's whimpering coming from the top of the stairs.

Once we made it to the top, a door was wide open and we could see Ron sitting on a bed with his rat in his hands, he was staring at the door behind us.

"Harry, Hermione watch out its Sirius Black. He's an animagus!" Ron claimed out to us once Harry and I walked into the room and we spun around to see the door close over and Sirius began to make his way over to us, Harry and I walked backwards from him, as he took each step towards us and Harry slowly raised his wand and pointed it at Black.

"Get back." Harry sternly said to Black.

"I mean no harm, I just want him." He said, putting his hands up in innocence and pointed his hand at Ron.

"Me…I've done nothing."| Ron began to freak out.

"Not you, your rat." Sirius exclaimed to us.

Then Professor Lupin walked into the room, and he and Sirius exchanged a few words and a hug.

"You're with him?!" I shouted at the pair, after they got out of their embrace, I looked at both of them.

"Look Hermione…" Lupin began to say.

"Wait, Hermione Herope?" Sirius asked me.

"I go by Hermione Banner now." I told him, expectorated.

"Wait, Hermione how does he know you?" Harry turned around and asked me.

"He's my mother's cousin and my Godfather." I explained to him, biting my lip, "But enough about family, Sirius why are you after Ronald's rat?" I spun to my godfather saying.

"Because he's not an ordinary rat." He told us and then the fight between, Harry, Sirius and Remus began as Ron's rat flew out of his owners hands and started to scamper his way around the room until they finally got him and he transformed into Peter Pettigrew.

Once we caught him and made our way out the shrieking shack, the full moon was up and Lupin transformed into a wolf, which I already knew that he was, as he was missing classes for few days in the month, when the full moon was up.

Sirius talked to Harry and I saying that we were welcome to come and live with him, if we wanted to, Harry was all up for it seeing as he detested his aunt and uncle, where as I told him that I live with my dad and uncle Tony, but I would go and visit him when I could. Then, Remus began to make noises, he looked up to the moon and he began to transform, and Sirius tried to help me move away from us, he then transformed into his animagus form, of a dog and they began to attack each other, then there was a wolf howling away in the distance and the wolf was gonna go to it, but he went back to attacking the dog and then the howling was back and the wolf ran away to it, just as Sirius' body fell off the side of the ground and Harry ran and disappeared behind the rock also. I was going to join him, but Ronald's leg was still bleeding and I need to get him to the medical wing.

******HB******HB******HB*** ***HB***Time Skip***HB******HB******HB ******HB******

Harry came into the medical wing, with Professor Dumbledore, just as Madam Pomfrey finished bandaging Ronalds leg and putting a bandage around my right hand and wrist and some salve onto the cuts on my face and other hand.

Harry was checked over, and given the all clear and a piece of chocolate. Then Professor began to talk about me using the time turner to save Sirius, obviously he didn't just tell us to do it, he hinted at it and I put it around Harry and I in the middle of the room. Ron asked us what we were doing and I told him he would have came but, he wasn't allowed to walk on his leg yet.

I turned the time turner three times, just as Dumbledore told me to do, then Harry and I were brought back to seeing Draco and his goons watching Buckbeak's execution, and the past us walked down to Hagrid's Hut and we followed ourselves and waited around, saved Buckbeak, I made the howls to attract Remus to us and then he began to hunt us and Buckbeak saved us and then we watched Harry, Sirius and the dementors on the lake, taking parts of Sirius' soul and Harry's and then Harry preformed the patronus charm and a ghostly stag came out of his wand and the dementors flew away from past Harry and Sirius.

Harry and I mounted Buckbeak and flew to the tower that Sirius was being held up in to be given the dementors kiss, got off the hippogriff and ran to Sirius' cell, preformed a bombarda hex causing the cell door to explode, grabbed Sirius out of the cell, remounted Buckbeak and flew to the Hogwarts grounds.

Sirius, Harry and I exchanged a few words about the summer holidays and seeing each other. We bid our farewells to each other, then Sirius mounted Buckbeak and they flew away and Harry and I ran back to the medical wing, told Dumbledore that we did it and walked into the medical wing, to watch our past selves evaporate.

"But, how are you there? I just saw you both there!" Ron asked confused at the both of.

"What is he on about Harry?" I asked teasingly.

"Yeah Ron, how can someone be in two places at once." Harry said, laughing. Ron just stared at us and then fell back onto the bed.
