****************************
As Hermione had leapt in for her wand her heart had skipped several beats. There had been no body at the entrance but it was obvious that whoever it was, they had stepped away just so that they didn’t get blasted along with the door. She had to act quickly and her whole body was trembling with fear and excitement and she internally cursed herself as she thought her movements were not quick enough.
Just as she reached her wand, she felt someone enter the doorway and stand before her. She immediately straightened up with a gasp of horror. Clutching her wand tightly, she pointed it towards the figure and tried to think of any powerful spell that she could cast on the intruder. Her brain was fogged with fear. But being the Gryffindor she was, she somehow gathered her courage. With a more determined expression on her face she was about to cast the first spell that came to her mind, when the intruder started to cough and sputter and moved his hands around frantically.
The intruder was covered in black dust from chest to hair and the red hair showed up from beneath the dust. ‘Red hair?’ Hermione paused and wondered as she noticed a familiar frightened expression on a very familiar face that was covered in dust. He was coughing out the dust that had entered his mouth and tried to talk.
*********************
“RON! WHAT THE HELL DO YOU THINK YOU ARE DOING?” She screamed waving her wand furiously at Ron’s face causing sparks to form from the end of it. Her hands and body trembled from the aftershocks of her panic and excitement.
“ ‘Mione, I’m sorry. I thought something was wrong in there” Ron stated nervously. He was clearly frightened of the witch’s reaction. Of all that he expected, an enraged witch on the verge of hexing his head off was definitely not one of them. “I was knocking for so long and you didn’t answer. But honestly ‘Mione, I didn’t mean to upset you” He finished lamely.
Hermione’s nostrils flared at his statement. “YOU GAVE ME A FUCKING HEART ATTACK RON! AND NOW YOU GIVE ME A BLOODY EXCUSE?” She yelled still pointing her wand at Ron’s face. “Ron, you just don’t go around breaking people’s doors. The next time you do this, I will make sure you are hexed till next year. Now get out of my sight.” She said still fury and confusion etched in her voice.
The cowering Weasley let out a frightened whimper as he looked totally dumbstruck at the furious witch. Hermione looked totally murderous with her flashing eyes and her brown curly hair which flew in all directions. Who would have thought the know-it-all Hermione was capable of such temper? He was about to say something when he noticed Hermione’s eyes narrow and thought the better of the situation. He shrugged helplessly and left her to her to her room.
******************
It had been 11 am and Hermione had missed breakfast. Both Harry and Ron were worried about her absence in the great hall but Harry had gone to the Quidditch field right after breakfast was over. It was Saturday and he had to select new players for his team and also had to set up the Quidditch schedules for the term. School had started last week and the schedules had to be given in to their Head of House as soon as possible in order to book the Quidditch field for practices before the other houses did. Ron had come by to Hermione’s room to ask if she was alright before he went to the Quidditch field. But after he had been pounding on the door for what seemed like hours she had not responded.
Hermione was not the type to be oblivious to her surroundings. Of all the things she was, missing breakfast and sleeping late was definitely not in her list. Ron thought that something had to be terribly wrong. After pounding on the door for some more time, he tried breaking through her wards in order to open the door. But the wards were strong. Remembering a spell that he had come across in the restricted section of the library last year, he used it and blasted open the door.
The spell had somewhat back fired on him. It had not only blasted the door open but had also blasted him off several feet with dust thrown on his face, chest and mouth. No wonder these spells were kept in the restriction section. They had to be learnt and used carefully. He had hurriedly got up and went to Hermione’s room to see if she was alright and saw her running to fetch her wand that was on the floor. He felt a sense of peace from seeing Hermione alright and he had tucked his wand into his robe pocket.
But as soon as he had put his wand away, he was taken by surprise when Hermione had pointed her wand at his face with a murderous glare. Knowing the look on Hermione, she was still sleep dazed and was not paying attention to who he was. All that she seemed to be was ‘murder personified’.
But then she had recognized him but she had threatened to hex him off to next year. Shaking his head a bit sadly, he wandered off to the grounds thinking he definitely deserved an explanation for Hermione’s behavior.

A/N: I guess you all didnt expect Ron in the scene. lol. Please review. :)
