Hermione heard a pounding in her head and she shifted sleepily onto her stomach pressing her face down into the pillow. As the pounding still continued she moaned unintelligibly and opened one eye trying to figure out what was causing the pounding. Whatever it was, she was just going to hex its balls into next week. Still mumbling in sleep, Hermione ran her hands beneath the pillows to get hold of her wand. As she shifted her face to the other side, she blinked furiously and closed her eyes as the bright sunlight flowing through her window almost blinded her. Drat! It was morning already.

She tried to focus her vision that was so damned blurred due to the sunlight and her disturbed sleep. Right now she would kill for sleep. All she needed to find was her wand so that she could cast a silencing spell and drift off to sleep again. Suddenly, the door blasted open with a huge bang that Hermione felt her insides had come out. Hermione shrieked and hurriedly tried to grab something for defense but ended up only grabbing her pillow. ‘Where the hell was her fucking wand?’ She thought frantically and leapt out of her bed still clutching the pillow. If she had to fight using her pillow, then she would. She couldn’t risk anything right now. She would rather die fighting with her pillow than not fighting at all.

Her sleep had fled as soon as the door had been blasted open. Her blood pounded into her brain and she felt terribly giddy and nauseous with fear as she tried to gather what was happening around her. Why would anyone want to attack her at a time like this? She was definitely sure that it was not night and she knew that death eaters attacked mostly at nights. But then, she was at Hogwarts! How could death eaters get inside Hogwarts? Could it be possible that the death eaters had finally started the war and had come charging directly to the head girl’s room just to kill her first for being a muggleborn and being the Head girl?

Hermione had very strong wards which guarded her room. The fact that they had been broken now irked her to no length as the intruder was probably a strong and bad one.

Hermione looked towards the now open doorway as the dust cleared. She didn’t notice anyone standing in the doorway and something caught the corner of her eye. It was her wand which she had kept on the small table next to the door. It was now on the floor due to all the mess. Hermione mentally smacked her head hard for being so stupid as to keep her wand lying of at some table. Of all the witches, she was supposed to know the importance of her wand. She dropped her pillow and leapt towards the wand and stood up when her face filled with horror.

“Wha- What the…” Hermione stuttered as the look on her face turned from that of horror to anger and to disgust as she raised her wand clutching it as tightly as possible.
