“Wands at the ready…and 1…2…3…!” Spells zoomed from one end of the classroom to the other. All different colors, from red to blue and from blue to gold and even silver. Harry was at the far end of the class fighting off Hermione’s powerful hexes and curses.

“Protego!” Harry yelled. A barrier forming around him. Harry dodged to the right as he yelled out his spell. “Expelliarmus!” Harry yelled. Hermione was caught of guard and her wand flew out from her hand. “Accio!” Harry yelled out. Hermione’s wand flew towards Harry and zoomed into his hand. Harry stared at Hermione with a smirk.

“Sorry, Hermione…but you know I’m not that easy to beat…heh,” Harry chuckled. Hermione stepped forward and took her wand from Harry’s hand.

“I know, Harry…so…we have Potions test tomorrow are you ready for the test?” Harry blinked confused.

“Test? When did he say we would have a test?!?” Harry asked. Hermione stared with a worried expression.

“Yesterday, Harry…don’t you remember?” Harry scoffed.

“How can I, Hermione…that man bores me to death!” Harry stated his hand ruffling his raven hair. Hermione sighed.

“Well, you and I are going to study tonight in the library…no excuses, Harry…” Hermione stated a glare in her eyes.

“But I can’t. I have a meeting with Dumbledore tonight.” Hermione raised an eyebrow.

“Are you kidding me, Harry?” Harry shook his head.

“Oh…fine but don’t expect me to allow you to copy off me…you’ve got another thing coming…” Hermione turned and walked towards her desk, Harry followed close behind.

“I’m really sorry, Hermione…but it’s the Headmaster…I can’t just blow him off!” Harry spat. Hermione scoffed.

“You’re not copying, Harry! And that’s final!” Hermione packed her things and class was over. Harry walked out and headed in opposite direction than Hermione. As Harry walked down the hall he stared back to see Draco staring at Harry. Harry looked at him oddly. Draco moved his eyes in another direction. That was odd…That was no typical Draco look… Harry thought as he headed for the common room. It was break so he had no classes to worry about for a while. Harry entered the common room only to find Ron already there. Ron was heading up stairs when he saw Harry come in. With a smile he headed back down.

“Hey, Harry…what’s up?” Harry shrugged.

“Not much, but did you know we have a test in Potions tomorrow?” Ron seemed to loose his balance for a second.

“What?!? When did he say that? How come I never heard that?” Harry shrugged.

“I don’t know…I didn’t hear that either. Hermione told me about it…” Harry had taken a seat and was now unpacking his Potion class materials.

“I need to ask Hermione to let me copy…or it’s the end for me…” Harry laughed.

“Don’t bother she wouldn’t let me copy…if she got so mad at me for not being prepared just try to imagine how mad she will get with you…you two are an item, remember?” Harry said as he searched for the material he was going to be tested on in his text book. “Page…345…” Harry mumbled to himself. Ron had thrown himself into a seat and stared gaze less into space.

“I’m doomed, Harry…” Ron muttered. Harry laughed.

“You’re not doomed, Ron…you’re just not prepared…how about taking advantage of this time to study?” Harry said slowly as if Ron would not have comprehended if Harry would have said it normally.

“Can’t you study for me…?” Ron asked hopefully. Harry chuckled.

“Oh…you-you were serious?” Harry asked. Ron frowned and fetched his books. For 2 hours the two studied until it was time to return to class. Harry shut his book shut with a smile on his face. “That was too easy…this material is simple stuff…I could pass the test with an ‘O’!” Ron shot a glare towards Harry.

“Oh, yeah…just rub it in, Harry!” Ron shut his book grabbed his things and headed out of the common room. He wasn’t mad he was being sarcastic.

Draco headed for his Herbology class. He was alone at the moment and seemed to like it like that for now. He had turned a corner when Patty Parkinson rushed into him. “Hi, Drakey. Listen, how about tonight you and I study together for Professor Snape’s test, huh?” Draco rolled his eyes. “Not to tonight Parkinson! I’m busy…”
“Doing what?” Draco scoffed.
“Wouldn’t you like to know…” Draco pushed her aside and headed for the school grounds. He was in no mood for any one other than that particular person at the moment. He was going to have lots of fun today.

Harry entered his History of Magic classroom and took a seat all the way in the back where he could easily sleep with having the boring teacher, Professor Bins, notice. Harry began to doze of. An image appeared it was a man. It was Lucious. He was bowing before Harry. Or was it Harry? The surroundings seemed familiar but yet so unrecognizable.
Harry saw him looking down at a short man he knew as Peter Pettigrew. The back stabbing fool.

“I have what you requested, my Lord…”

“Good…” Harry said in a voice that wasn’t his.

“Add it with the rest of the ingredients…I’ll see to it later…I have a feeling we have a special guest in spirit…” Peter stared up at Harry oddly.

“Guest, sir?” Harry cackled. “Yes…guest. Now go do as I said…” Harry watched as Peter scurried off to complete his orders. Hello, Harry a voice sounded in Harry’s thoughts. It’s nice of you to join us…but at the moment I’m busy. Don’t worry we’ll meet soon…very soon…I guarantee it! The voice was gone and Harry awoke suddenly. The class was departing from the class. Time for dinner. Harry rubbed his eyes and grabbed his things. He was gone and off to find Ron and Hermione…this was too important to not be said. Especially to Dumbledore.

Sorry, this was very short but…I seem to be getting tired…though I just started…but that’s me…and I want to end the chapter before I start making it stupid and no point to it. I know I said that in chapter 3 there would be some sexy action going on…but I decided to stall that for chapter 4…that way I can keep all of you in suspense…lol…well expect a 4th chapter in 1 to 2 days…and thank you thrnbrooke...i think out of every one you’ve been most motivating. So tell your friends to read these…their good. Well…bye and don’t miss out on the 4th chapter…wheeeeee
