Y/N's POV

The weather worsened steadily as the first Quidditch match came nearer. We were training harder than ever. Then at our final practice session before Saturday's match, Wood gave us some bad news....

"We're not playing Slytherins." he looked quite angry, "Flint just told me, we're playing Hufflepuff."

"Why?" Harry asked.

"Flint's excuse is that their Seeker's arm's still injured," said Wood, grinding his teeth furiously. "But it's obvious why they're doing it. Don't want to play in this weather. Think it'll damage their chances...."

"There's nothing wrong with Malfoy's arm!" I said furiously, "He's faking it!" Harry added.

"Yes, but we can't prove it." Wood said, "And we've been practicing all those moves assuming we're playing Slytherin, and instead it's Hufflepuff, and their style's quite different. They've got a new Captain and Seeker, Cedric Diggory."

Angelina and Katie suddenly giggled.

"What?" Wood asked them bitterly.

"He's that tall and handsome one right?" Angelina said.

"What is it with you girls? Talking about boys all day!" I said frowning....

"Don't forget that you're one too y/n." I just rolled my eyes at this.

"Its okay Captain. Hufflepuff is pushover. Last year Harry caught the snitch in just 5 minutes!" I said, "And a team is said good when they can win any situation and in this case without planning too!" 

He smiled slightly at my confidence.... All the other Gryffindors too felt motivated.

We practiced for a while and then went to our respective classes. Harry and I had DADA.

We sat down together, and to make the day worse, the class was to be taken by Snape. He entered the class with his usual nasty attitude.

"Turn to page number 394!" he said in his usual cold voice.

"Where is Professor Lupin?" I asked him,

"He is incapable of taking the class at this proper moment, now turn to page 394." he swished his wand at Ron's book who was turning every page as slowly as possible to turn it to page 394.

"Werewolves? But sir we haven't started with werewolves yet!" Hermione said.

"SILENCE" Snape shut her. 

"Where did you come for?" Ron has to stop noticing Hermione that much!

"Now can anyone tell me what's difference between an Animagus and a werewolf?" Hermione quickly raised her hand at Snape's question.

"No one?" Snape said ignoring her hand.

"Sir please! An Animagus is a wizard who chooses to be an animal, whereas a werewolf has no choice. He changes into werewolf on every full moon, and doesn't remember anything. He can also kill his friend if he crosses his limit and only responds to its own kind." Hermione answered and Malfoy made a howling sound trying to impersonate a werewolf.
