Whatever Aurora Black expected to happen on the first morning being back at school, it wasn't for Hermione Granger to be spraying her with water.

"Aurora, wake up! Now!" Hermione shouted, however the girl stayed sound asleep. "Fine, Aguamenti!"

Water sprayed straight in Aurora's face.

"Hermione!" Aurora shot up with a gasp, her face now dripping with water as she stared at her friend in shock.

"Up!" The bushy haired girl snapped.

Aurora let out an angry sigh, however she did as her friend said.

When Aurora, Harry, Ron, and Hermione entered the Great Hall for breakfast, the first thing they saw was Draco Malfoy, who seemed to be entertaining a large group of Slytherins with a very funny story. As they passed, Malfoy did a ridiculous impression of a swooning fit and there was a roar of laughter.

Aurora couldn't help but snort at their idiocy.

"Ignore him," said Hermione. "Just ignore him, it's not worth it..."

"Hey, Potter!" shrieked Pansy Parkinson, a Slytherin girl with a face like a pug. "Potter! The Dementors are coming, Black! Potter! Woooooooooo!"

Aurora glared at her, rolling her eyes as she dropped into a seat at the Gryffindor table, next to Hermione.

"New third-year course schedules," said George, passing them over. "What's up with you, Harry?"

"Malfoy,"

"Well, he wasn't laughing like that in front of the dementors, was he, Freddie?" George asked his twin.

"Nearly wet himself," said Fred, with a contemptuous glance at Malfoy.

"I wasn't too happy myself," said George. "They're horrible things, those Dementors..."

"Sort of freeze your insides, don't they?" said Fred.

"You didn't pass out, though, did you?" said Harry in a low voice.

"Forget it, Harry," said George bracingly. "Dad had to go out to Azkaban one time, remember, Fred? And he said it was the worst place he'd ever been, he came back all weak and shaking...They suck the happiness out of a place, Dementors. Most of the prisoners go mad in there."

"Anyway, we'll see how happy Malfoy looks after our first Quidditch match," said Fred. "Gryffindor versus Slytherin, first game of the season, remember?"

Aurora grinned, she was a chaser.

Hermione was examining her new schedule. "Ooh, good, we're starting some new subjects today," she said happily.

"Hermione," said Ron, frowning as he looked over her shoulder, "they've messed up your timetable. Look -- they've got you down for about ten subjects a day. There isn't enough time."
