The book of Shadows

Saturday from Hell

The kids woke up late and were getting ready to go and eat breakfast. Hermione was down their all ready eating with James and was in deep conversation with him. It was all-so a Saturday that the kids go to Hogsmeade for the afternoon.

" Would you like to come with us to Hogsmeade?" Hermione asked James.

" Well I will have to ask my headmistress is it was all right for me to go. Be right back." James said to her.

" Who is your headmistress?" Hermione asked him.

" Her name is April A. Wilson and she is fair to us all ways listens to, two sides of the story before she makes the punishment." James said and ran up to the head table and where to April was sitting at Talking to Angel and Snape.


" Yes James what is it that you want?" April said to him

" I was just asked to go to Hogsmeade with a group of the kids from here and I came up here to ask you if it was ok that I can go?" James asked her.

" Well I guess you can go, But I am warning you now. Don’t get into trouble here." April said to him.

" You know me, no promises, Trouble finds me." James said to her with a smile and wink and left to go and sit next to Hermione again.

" Well can you go?" Hermione asked him.

" I can go just can't get into trouble." He said back with a smile on his lips but his voice said different.

" This will be fun." Hermione said and went back to her room to get changed into better looking uniform.

Ron watched her leave and al most ran after her to asked why she was going back up to Griffindore. But he stopped himself and ate his breakfast.

Noon came and the kids that were to go to Hogsmeade stood out in the hall waiting to leave. Ron and Harry and Hermione stood together waiting for James to get back. He did and he was the kind of guy who was built but know one knew how built he was. He had muscular arms and a broad chest that was well defined through his shirt. A small waist and large muscular legs that cocruscrush a beer can. He was wearing Jeans that was a little too tight but that didn't bother him. His shirt was a red muscle shirt. Even though it was getting cold out side he wear no heavy coat but a light jacket that was all black. His hair was blond and stood up on ennd pnd pointy at the end of them. Baby blue eyes. He walked over casually to wear Hermione was standing at.

" You are the famous Harry Potter, It is good to meat you. My grandfather is from here and he sends me the paper everyone in a while." James said to Harry.

" Really, well it is nice to meet you too James." Harry said back.

" You guys have to wear those robes all the time here?" He asked them.

" Yes it is the school dress code. There is only one that don't dress like this all time and that is Professor Cobblestone and even then she gets into trouble for some of the stuff she wears." Ron said

" She is the one that has the weird eyes? I have met her a couple of times at my home town. She is a good person just a little to stern for me though. But she was in America for to long and got use to wearing what ever she wanted." James said to Ron


" You dress like that all the time it's really cold out there?" Harry asked.

" Where I come from this is nothing but a small artic blast. As a matter of fact people call me jack frost cause I usually don't wear a coat at all." James said to Harry.


" I heard you say that trouble always find you?" Harry asked him.

" Yeah like the plague." James said back as they were walking to Hogsmeade.

" I like you James a lot we have a lot in common." Harry said as they went into the three broomsticks and got Butter beer for every one.

" Are you going to attend the classes here at Hogwarts for your stay?" Harry asked.
Yes Yes and I know for some reason I have the same classes as you guys do Except for a few that only our teachers are to teach." James said.

" Cool, I like this a lot." Hermione said.

" What are your classes after lunch?" Ron asked.

" I haoublouble potions wit h this Professor Snape." James said.

" He is ok but at times he can be a git." Ron said to James. The rest shook their heads as to say Ron was right to say that.

James looked confused. " What is a git?"

" A git is what you Americans call a pain in the ass." Hermione said back.

They got done and started to walk outside and started to go to the joke shop that Ron's brothers had opened this year and it was a co jointed with the existing joke shop and it was made bigger for it. They walked in and James all he had was American money not the Gallions etc. But it did not matter Hermione got some stuff that he really liked and that it was going to be fun pulling pranks on his headmistress for once.

" Thank's a lot Hermoine." He said to her. They left Ron and Harry inside talking to George Weasely for a little bit.

" I have to ask you something. Would you go to the Yule Ball with me?" James asked her.

With all the excitement Hermione for got about Ron asking her out to the ball and said. " Yes I will." Then it dawned on her. How am I going to break this to Ron?

Then Ron and Harry had came out of the joke shop when he asked her and she said yes. Ron could not believe his ears. He went up to Hermione and looked at her and then said " How could you do this to me?"

" I forgot Ron I am sorry." Hermione said back to him.

" You only meet him yesterday and you are going with him? Don't talk me don't look at me and please what ever you do don't even try to mend our friendship. Do you know how long I have liked you?" Ron said. Harry could see the moments Ron’s heart broke into two. He had a bad feeling about this that he has lost his best friend forever and it was going to end on a bad foot.

" Don't speak to her like that? She for got so what if it is all to you then I take back what I had said to her. I don't want to break friend ships here." James said to Ron.

" Don't James you don't have to, I will go with you to the ball and that is that. So be it Ron I will do what you asked. I know how long ever since the first year here." Hermione said. With that she had tears running down her face as she said this.

" Yes James don't, I would nant ant to go with her even if she is the last thing on earth she is a Tramp." Ron said.

" What did you call her?" James asked.

" A tramp that is what I called her. Got a problem with that? Then please by all means lets fight then." Ron said to the boy who was clearly about a foot taller than him.

" Fine if it a fight then you are on." James said as he got into his fighting stance.

Harry did not hear these words because he had ran off to find Hermione that took off to be alone. Harry found her and was startled to see her crying hard in the corner.

Back in the main street of Hogsmeade there had formed a circle of spectators and the two in the middle were staring down each other.

Ron Calmly walked up to James and threw his punch into the stomach and then looked up to see James had not moved let alone look like it hurt.

" Damn Mosquito’s are out in the middle of winter." James had said and then he reared his fist and it ploughed into Ron stomach and He went flying into the crowd of people. Who in returned pushed him back into the ring.

Ron ran but to James again and this time landed a punch in his face and that didn't even faze James he just laughed it off like it was nothing. " Come on you hit like a elderly woman? Who taught you how to fight?"

" Well let’s see my dear old mother." With that said Ron kicked James in the nuts. James went down to one knee and then from no where threw a punch into James stomach. James was not ready for this and he took a hard punch into his stomach and he grunted cause of it. Then a another punch dotted his left eye that stung like hell.

Poor Ron did even see it coming. All he knew that there was pain in his nuts himself andwentwent down to his knees but that was all James got up and waited for Ron to get up. " Only cowards hit people when they are down." He said to Ron. Ron got up and looked to James and that was the last thing he knew. Ron blacked out and pulled out his wand and yelled " Plantarius Twisto."

Immediately James legs were planted and were twisting with it. But James knew this curse and knew how to get out of it. From some where he had pulled out his wand and then he yelled out " Greivius Maskomus!!"

Ron screamed out in pain and that was when Harry and Hermione had came back. Harry ran to where Ron was and then looked over to where James stanstanding.

" Please stop this. Put him back." Harry had asked James. James did and he came to Ron and raise his head to see if anything was left out of place and then Ron being controlled by someone else had raise his hand and uppercut James.

James raises his fist to give another blow when there was yelling coming from the other side of the street.


Angel and April came running to stop the fight that had been going on for a little bit.

" To the both of you stop." Angel said as she went over to Ron.

A cam came up to James and slapped him across the face and that snapped him out of it. He looked down at Ron and looked up to his Headmistress and then said, " I am sorry you know trouble's always follows me. He had it coming by calling Hermione a Tramp. That is about as bad as calling her a muddblood."

" It gave you no right to do this James you will serving detention. For the next two weeks by cleaning out all the toilets in the busses and in Hogwarts and they had better be spotless." April said to the young man who had a strange look on his face like she had him by the balls and he knew it.

" But Ron threw the first punch." James said in defense. Angel looked over to see if any one would claim this to be true. Then from now where Ron said.

" It is true Histristress I am the one who provoked him into it and I am the one who threw the first punch." Ron said returning back to his old self.

" Fine then, you should have controlled yourself better than that James you still have detention though not for two weeks but for one and that I take away your broomstick for that week and you can not play or practice Quidditch for a whole week. As for Ron that will be for the house mistress to decide what he gets. Ron I am sure that for know you two will be separated for a while." April said.

Angel looked down to Ron and helped him up and made him walk up to the school and strait to McGonagall’s office. McGonnagall had all ready knew what had happened and was sitting in her office waiting for Ron to come in. That Monday Ron was spotted dogging James and to the effect Ron started another fight with him. But it was stopped short of blows.


Angel came in and escorted them out of the hall and into her classroom.

" If you two can not stay away from each other, Detention will not help with this then I would have to have Dumbledore and Mss Wilson expel you both. But if you want another way out of this hostilities than come to my class room to night and then we shall see what will happen." Angel said to them both.

' Why do we have to do that for?" Ron asked.

" If you want your detentions taken away then you to will have to duel me together and that means you two will have to work together on this. I don't care how cold it is it will be out side. Right by Hagrid’s house. That also means no wands will be there so just leave them in your rooms. " Angel back to them.


" Sweet." James said. In a cocky voice. Angel gives him a warning glare.

" Watch it boy I know who your grandfather is and he wanted me to have this done any way. Oh I should have not said that." Angel said as she gave herself a slap across own own head.

" What ever, I am tired of being in Harry's shadows any way this will be my mark and fun at the same time. Can we have guest at this fight with you?" Ron asked.

" Why do you ask?" Angel said to him.

" Cause I have a friend that woulke tke to see this." Ron said back.

" Who?" said Angel and James at the same time?

" Never mind you will see." Ron said back to them and left the room to go to classes, which was Potions.

James followed Ron into the Potions room. Snape watched them come in with the late excuses from Angel.

" Well been caught fighting in the halls again?" neerneered at them both.

" Well yeah kind of sorta." James said with a smile on his face.

" Class well will be starting the Glory potion today and it will tak abo about two days to get it done." Snape said as he pointed his wand to the blackboard. The ingredients showed up on it and he himself brought out his cauldron and was doing it with them.

" Hey Trinity, Did you happen to use the bathroom tissue for that brown nose you have?" Ron said to her Har Harry heard this and was about to say something when Snape walked up and put his hand on Harry's shoulder as to say sit down. " Ill takes care of this Potter."

" Ronald Weasely, what do you think you are doing?" Snape said.

" What is it to you? I am not the one who is a traitor to the dark lord and that you serve for the Senile of a fool that created the Order of the Phoenix. That black mark on your arm goes to show that no one can trust you with anything but pile's of dog shit." Ron said to Snape.

Snape was appalled and shaken at the accusations that Ron had said to him. Just as that was said Trinity walks up to where Ron was seated at and then looked down at him and with the swing of her hand that came across Ron's face there was a smack that the whole class heard.

" Nobody talks about my father that way again." She sneered into his face.

Ron looked up at her and smiled and then he reached forward and grabbed her robes and pulled her in towards him and said, " You will be the next one to die if yo tho that again."

Snape snap’s and grabs Weasely by his robes and drags him into his office and then looks up to where Harry was and then said. " Mr. Potter please go and get Dumbledore down here know." Snape with a restrained voice trying not to show his anger to the class.

Harry left and ran down the hall to where the door of Dumbledore's Office was. Harry yelled out " Chocolate Leaping toadstools"

" Get back to work now and get that potion done if it happens to go wrong do not drink it at all. If it dose then clear the lot of it and start again. No one will get bad marks for it." Snape said and disappeared into his office.


In the office that Snape had was small but huge it held all of his privet stock of ingrediance for other potions. Their sat on Ron on one side of the desk and Snape went around and sat down in front of Ron.

" Boy what has gotten into you? Just last week you were a good kid." Snape said.

" I thought it would be nice if the whole school knew what you were. A traitor." Ron said.

" That was Draco Malfoy and he hears everything and reports it to his father. This is the last thing I wanted to hear that came from yourth Wth Weasely." Snape said to him.

" Oh yeah cause I picked on your daughter? That has nothing to do with it. I remember a certain mistress of the Black house saying you were going to die for turning your back on Voldemort. Hmm how fitting it would be on yours and Angels wedding day." Ron said to him.

There came a knock on Snaps door and Dumbledore and Harry came in.

" What is the mater Severus? Why is Ron in here?" Dumbledore asked.

" Well let’s see..." Snape was cut off by Ron.

" I called him a traitor to the dark lord and that he was working for the Order to boot and just know how he was going to die on his wedding day." Ron said to Dumbledore.

" What is wrong Ron? " Harry asked.

" Like you would care Harry, I have been in your shadow ever since we meet 6 years ago. I think it is high time that I get some credit for the things I have done for you so as it stands know we are no longer friends but enemies." Ron said to Harry and Ron got up and rolled up his sleeves back and their it was in plain sight the same mark that Snape has on his arm. The mark of the Dark Lord himself.

" How did you get that?" Harry asked.

" Well it is a tale but this is the short version of it. I went away last summer to where Charlie was and that was the last known spot where Voldemort was sighted. So late on night I met up with Lucius and he took me to where Voldemort was at and I pledged myself to him. That is how I got this. The first and only Weasely to service to Lord Voldemort." Ron said back to Harry.

Snape had turned white to the thought of it. Dumbledore shook his head in dismay at Ron. " So be it Ronald it was your deccion to do so. But while you are under this roof you will not threaten any one of the students and as for the Professor's they will not tolerate it either. I will not expel you for this but as it stands you will not have regular classes. You will be tutored buy us in our class rooms but under strict supervision. And this to Ron your parents will be contacted and we will have a meeting about what to do with you. You may go to class Ron this will be the last day you do so." Dumbledore said to Ron who got up and left with out a word.

Dumbledore then looked at Snape and then he cleared his throat and said. " This is a grievous day indeed. Snape he will not let Draco know about this. As a fact Draco has talked to me that he is so a shamed of his father that he don't talk to him that much. So the secret is safe for know. I want you to be at Hagrid’s after classes are done and I want you to assist Angel in the little fight that James and Ron must do she has suspicions of what is going on. James is my grandson and Xero is my son I thought he was dead because of Voldemort. As for James well all he knows that he has a grandfather who is London. Leave it like that."

" I am leaving to go to the last class." Harry said to them. He took his leave and found that Hermione and James and Trinity were waiting for him to get out of the office. They left to go to where the defense against the black arts was held. It was getting better they where now dueling to ward off dark spell and it was fun Xero was a great teacher and he was funny at it.


Harry and Hermione and James and trinity came into the class with notes from Dumbledore saying the reason the were late.

" Well lets get practicing the full moon effect... (Xero raise his robes and pulled his pants off to show his full moon and that girls got a full blast of the tattoo of a naked lady that waved at them and smiled.) No that only works on werewolves what I mean to say was the " Imparius impackto."

There was laugher that wafer through the room and he picked Harry for the next test subject.

" Ok Harry, Just do like it showed you have to yesterday ok?" Xero said

" Ok." Harry said as he got into his stance and with a wave of the wand he yelled out.

"Imparius Impacto"

The aim was a little off and it hit Xero right in the nuts and his eye crossed and his smile left him and went do to his knees.

" I am so sorry." Harry said.

" It is ok I will not hurt you at all." Xero said as he stood up and was walking funny.

Harry thought better and high tailed it off the stage and back to his seat that was next to Hermione and James. Ron had been sitting in front. Ron got up and a wave from his wand he yelled

" Imperio"

Then Xero's body went under control of Ron and he made Xero attach Harry with the same curse and had Harry in his fists when they heard a woman’s voice come from the doors.

" Expellarmus"

To Ron's wand and it went into the air and the curse that had Xero was lifted. He put down Harry and looked around confused.

" Thank you Angel what happened?" Xero asked.

" You were under one of the worst curse to be said. Ronald Weasely come with me to my room and sit there until the class is done and I will escort you to the yard." Angel said.
