What now

Harry and Ron returned an hour later.
"So did you find anything?"
Brittany whispered.
"Well, it wasn't Malfoy."
Harry said.
"Is Hermione okay?"
Brittany shook her head.
"Just... you might have to see for yourself."
She nodded to the stall Hermione was in.
"Hermione? Harry and Ron are back. Is it- are you still?"
Brittany called. Hermione crept put of the stall.
"I'm still a cat."
Ron looked astounded.
"How..."
He started to ask.
"It was cat hair on Millicent Bulstrodes robes. Look at my face!"
Hermione whimpered.
"Look at your tail."
Ron said.
"C'mon Hermione. I'll take you to the hospital wing."
Brittany said and led Hermione out of the bathroom.
"Harry and Ron did find one thing. It wasn't Malfoy. What now... who knows."
Brittany said as she walked Hermione to the hospital wing.

Hermione stayed in the hospital wing for a few weeks.
"I still think you have brain damage."
Brittany said as Hermione did some school work.
"As Ron put it a few minutes ago, I wouldn't be doing any. Well, maybe potions. I like potions. But hate Snape. Potions are good as long as it's not Snape."
She ranted.
"How would you know? You've never had a potions class if anyone but Snape as the teacher."
Brittany rolled her eyes.
"I just like potions. Not the class, to art of adding ingredients to liquid to make something explode."
Brittany answered Hermione.
"I don't think that's what potions are."
Hermione laughed.
"Well, who cares. I'm going back to the common room. I'll bring you more work tomorrow since you so love to do it."
Brittany waved goodbye to a laughing Hermione.

"You found a diary. How useful."
Brittany rolled her eyes as Ron and Harry showed her and Hermione (who had just gotten out of the hospital wing) a beaten up book.
"Why would someone throw it away? It looks to be-"
"Fifty years old."
Hermione finished Harry's sentence.
"So?"
Ron asked.
"The attacks on the school were fifty years ago."
Hermione said it like it was the most obvious piece of information. (Which at the moment, it was)
"But Hermione, it's empty."
Ron pointed out.
"It must be invisible ink!"
Hermione grabbed her wand and a large red eraser.
"Aparecium!"
Hermione said. Nothing happened. She proceeded to use the eraser.
"You can't erase what not there."
Brittany pointed out.
"It's not an eraser, it's a revealer, I got it in Diagon Alley."
Ro didn't look convinced.
"Riddle just got a diary for Christmas and couldn't be bothered with it. There's nothing there."
