EN-CA\'> I do not onythnything in this fanfic, ‘
parts directly in the OoTP book, but that was mostly
to stick to what SOME of the characters said during the book, so all dialogues
that seem familiar to you, it’s probably because they were taken out straight
from the book and I do not claim them as mine. The events that happen in this
chapter are similar to what really happened in the book, but I changed the
narration a little bit because I didn’t want to make it seem like I “copied”
the book, I’m just following it in this chapter ‘cause I want to make it very
similar, ‘cept that Malfoy
is part of it now. . . .

don’t let me in this, Weasel, there won’t even BE a ‘this’. I know what
you’re planning and I’m sure our dear Professor Umbridge

infuriating presence, ”-Because nobody could call that Defense Against the Dark

loudly.) “I thoughtwoulwould be good if we, well, took the matters into our own

EN-CA\'>Author’s note :
EN-CA\'> Like I said at the beginning
of the fanfic, I DID take some of the dialogue parts
directly in the OoTP book, but that was mostly to
stick to what SOME of the characters said during the book, so all dialogues
that seem familiar to you, it’s probably because they were taken out straight
from the book and I do not claim them as mine. The events that happen in this
chapter are similar to what really happened in the book, but I changed the
narration a little bit because I didn’t want to make it seem like I “copied”
the book, I’m just following it in this chapter ‘cause I want to make it very
similar, ‘cept that Malfoy
is part of it now. . . .
EN-CA\'>
EN-CA\'>So please, I’ve told you that what I’ve taken from the book is not MINE,
and absolutely do NOT claim it as mine, because JK Rowling was the one who
wrote them.
EN-CA\'>
EN-CA\'>What IS mine, are the parts when DRACO comes in. .
. There will be a lot less parts from the book in the next chapters, don’t
worry. . .
EN-CA\'>
EN-CA\'>I hope you enjoyed this Chapter even if there was a lot from the book in
it *blushes* please don’t hate me?? Anyways, if you want me to keep writing
this fanfic, please review, if don’t waste your
breath because I’m ganna write it anyways!!
EN-CA\'>
EN-CA\'>Love you all, whoever reads this!!^_^
