It was chilly December morning and by the all standards this day couldn't start any worse.

First of all I managed to oversleep, and I missed my first class. Then at my father's class, for the first time in my life, I managed to forget some ingredients for one potion, and he took ten points from our house. And like it was all set up after lunch I bumped bloody Potter, who decided that it would be great idea to shout at me in the middle of the corridor. So since I was in bad mood I couldn't bear to listen his stupid voice and I hexed him out of blue, and of course I get myself a detention. But I regret nothing, it was bloody hilarious.

The only thing that was at least a little bit good, was the letter that I got from Hagrid. This is the first time he called me to come to his house ever since school started. I really am excited to spend some time with him.

Finally the school had ended for today, with no more incidents and God knows why that is good.

I decided to go to Hagrid as soon as the last class ends.

It was six o'clock and the sun was lower than usually, and I couldn't afford myself to get one more detention for being outside of the common room at night.

I was now in front of the Hagrid's house and he was nowhere to be found.

I slowly came closer to the front door of the house, and I knocked few times. The old wooden door squealed when it flew open.

Hagrid stood there looking for the person who knocked. His face lit up with huge smile on his hairy face, when he looked down and saw me standing at his porch.

"Oh, Christine it is nice t' see ya! " Hagrid said showing me to come inside.

"It is nice to see you too!" I smiled widely and came inside.

I'm not sure if it was my imagination or not, but Hagrid's house wasn't the same as before. It was way too messy and it was extremely hot. The temperature outside and here was way too different, and when I turned towards fireplace to find the cause, I realized that in the fire was something that looked like an giant egg.

"Hagrid, what is that?" I asked while pointing at the strange egg.

"Oh, that's a reason why I called ya today," Hagrid said happily.

"Really?" I came closer to the fire so I could see it better. It looked like it has small scales all over it. For a moment I thought of a dragon's egg, they looked exactly like that. But that can't be true. Why would Hagrid have it, and more importantly how did he found it? They are extremely rare.

I turned my gaze towards Hagrid, and I send him an look full of questions. And he immediately knew what I was thinking.

"Ya right? It is a dragon egg!" He said proudly.

"How did you find it, they are extremely rare!" I almost shouted from happiness.

"An weird man give it to me" he smiled "Ya know, it's a shame, 'e wanted to get rid of it so bad!"

"Why?! They are amazing! I always wanted to see one!" I looked at him in disbelief.

' Who would do such a thing? ' I thought to myself.' I mean really it is a dragon, you don't see them every day! '

"That's why I call ya will hatch soon!" He run past me to increase the heat, and the table in the center of the room jumped a little.

"Do you know what breed it is?" I asked with my eyes shining from happiness.

"Norwegian Ridgeback! Ya can see it because of its scales, every dragon egg 'as different ones !" He said and show me how the egg looked up close.

"You could make an amazing Care of magical creatures teacher!" I said and hugged him.

He smiled widely." Than..." the knock on the door cut him off.

I looked at the window. It was already dark outside and curfew is just an hour ahead. Hagrid slowly approach the door, and another knock filled the room. It was followed by the voice that reminded me of this morning scene in the hallway.

"Hagrid, it's us. Open the door!" Hagrid relaxed and opened the door, but there was no one.

And for few seconds I stood there watching the door, and suddenly out of nowhere the trio appeared there at the porch. And there was no one just a few seconds ago.

Potter, Weasley and Hermione stood there smiling and talking to Hagrid, when they turned and looked at me their faces changed in an instant.

"What are YOU doing here?!" Potter shouted immediately after seeing me.

I straightened up a little. "I could ask you the same question!"

Hagrid, why did you let this filthy Slytherin inside your house?" Weasley asked totally ignoring me.

"Ron!" Hermione shouted warning him of his behavior.

"What?" he looked at her weirdly.

"What' wrong 'Arry? She's m' friend!" Hagrid looked disappointed.

"What's wrong?!" he looked at Hagrid as if he was crazy. "She is a Slytherin, you told me you hate them!"

"Not all of us are bad as Voldemort!" I said coldly.

"Don't say his name!" Hagrid and Weasley said in unison.

"I'm not scared of a name!"

"Ya should, he was a scary man! " Hagrid said but no one else managed to say anything because the cracking noise filed the room. The egg started to hatch.

Hagrid ran to take egg out of the fireplace, and again the table jumped again this time almost falling.

Hagrid took the egg end put him on the table. "Ya came just in time!" they looked at Hagrid weirdly because they didn't know what was happening.

Hermione slowly came to my side and whispered to my ear. "What is happening?"

"Hagrid found a dragon egg," I whispered back.

"Amazing," was all she said.

A minute or two passed and dragon finally came out.

It was beautiful, with his greenish skin he looked like he was shining.

"What is that?" Potter said with a bit of discuss in his voice.

"Are you blind?! You really don't know?!" I looked at him like he was crazy and he returned a similar look to me. "I can't believe it! It is a dragon"

He ignored and turned to Hagrid. "Hagrid where did you find it?"

Hagrid told them how he got it, and after that they continued with the conversation completely ignoring me. I didn't mind it though, I enjoyed playing with the dragon on my own. But after some time it started to bother me, because every time I tried to say something Weasley or Potter would cut me of. I don't blame Hagrid for not paying attention because he was just to excited for finally getting a dragon, he always wanted one.

"You do know that I am here, right !" I said angrily.

"What Harry did you hear something?"

"No Ron I did not!" Potter said smirking.

Hermione was ready to say something but I was faster.

"That is enough! I can't listen to you any longer," I shouted. "Sorry Hagrid I will come again when they aren't here, I can't be in the same room with people that make fun of me and my house!" I picked up my stuff and went outside.

I almost started running on my way to the castle. It is frustrating how people sometimes can be so disgusting.

I made to my room just before curfew. And I stayed there for the rest of the night.

When I met Draco at breakfast next morning I found out that he followed the trio outside of the castle, and when he turned them in he got punished because, he also was out of bed late at night. He also told me that professor McGonagall, said that I will spend my punishment with them at the Dark forest.
