Rebel Rising

Chapter 1

After a night of wild partying and debauchery, Hermione Granger struggled to emerge from the hangover she had been left with. With her head pounding and her brain fuzzy, she stumbled out of bed and tried to gather herself.
As she began to get ready for her first day back at Hogwarts, she could barely remember the events of the night before. She shook her head and tried to focus on what she would be wearing, knowing that it would have to be something more edgy than her usual bookish style. The outfit she wore last night was definitely not appropriate for the hogwarts express. Despite feeling groggy, Hermione managed to pull herself together enough to put on an outfit that better suited her current rebel personality. She selected a stylish, all-black ensemble, with accessories that added a touch of punk-rock edge.
With a final glance in the mirror to make sure her look was on point, Hermione grabbed her trunk and headed out the door, already imagining the looks she would get from her fellow students upon arriving at king cross station.

Hermione arrived at King's Cross station with a spring in her step and a devil-may-care attitude. She had a reputation to maintain, and showing up to Hogwarts looking disheveled and hungover was not the image she wanted to project.
Instead, she sported an edgy, all-black ensemble with statement jewelry and a slouchy attitude. Her dark hair was loose and flowing, while accessories like a leather jacket and chunky boots completed the look. As the train pulled into the station, Hermione couldn't help but feel a sense of excitement for the year ahead and all it would bring.

Hermione finds a empty compartment and sits down.

Harry and Ron who hasn't seen Hermione in a few months. Is looking for a empty compartment on the train and spots a edgy sexy looking girl they haven't seen before, and enters the compartment.

Hermione looks up and sees Harry and Ron entering the compartment, and rolls her eyes.

Hello Harry, Ronald.

They look at her completely shocked.
Her.. Mione... Is that you? Ron stutters.

Yes obviously Ron. Hermione states in a matter of fact tone.

You.. You look different Mione.
Harry says.

Hermione just looks at them and continues reading her book.

Soon the train leaves for hogsmeade station.

Hermione doesn't really acknowledge or engage in conversations, due to the pounding headache.

As the train stops in hogsmeade Hermione gets off and walks to one of the Thresal pulled carriages and gets in.
Wait Mione! Harry yells as he and Ron gets in.

What do you want harry? Hermione says.

We missed you Mione, we haven't seen you in months...
You changed... Harry says.

O I wasn't aware that I needed your permission.
Hermione says sarcastically.

The 7th years enter the great hall behind the first year's and waits for their resort.

After the first years have been sorted.
Proffesor McGonagall stands up.

Can all the seventh years redoing their year please step forward.

All the seventh years steps forward.
McGonagall call names and places the sorting hat on their heads one at a time.

As Hermione's name was called and she sat down on the stool, the Hat hovered over her head for a moment. Then, to everyone's surprise, it called out the name "Slytherin!"

The commotion was immediate as the students from the other houses were stunned. No one had expected Hermione Granger, the know-it-all bookworm of Gryffindor, to be sorted into Slytherin. But there she was, joining the house that was associated with ambition, cunning, and treachery.
The professors at Hogwarts were visibly shocked and confused by Hermione's sorting into Slytherin. McGonagall was outright bewildered, while Snape simply nodded his head approvingly.

The other professors, including Flitwick and Sprout, exchanged concerned glances, their minds racing to understand why this had happened.

Hermione walks over to the slytherin table and sit down next to Draco.

So Granger, I see you have ditched your bookworm appearance.. Draco says with amusement.

Yeah something like that.. I realized that there is more to life than just books and knowledge. Hermione says.

Proffesor McGonagall, regains the ability to talk after the sorting hat shock and stands up.

Let the feast begin..

The tables fill up with food and the students dig in.

As the welcoming feast comes to a end the students walk off to their dorms.

Mione! Mione! Wait.
Harry and Ron yells. Hermione stops and looks at them.
For God sake what do you two want?
Well... We.. I.. Uhm... Can't you ask McGonagall to put you back in gryffindor? Harry stutters.

And pray tell why I would do that?
I'm not the bookworm, goody two shoes everyone used for their own personal gain anymore.

Leave me be. Hermione walks towards the waiting Draco and friends.

Harry and Ron watches Hermione walk down to the Dungeon.. Shocked, confused and utterly flabbergasted.

The next day Hermione walks into potions class.
Hermione had to admit, her first day as a Slytherin student in Potions class was not what she had been expecting.

For one, Snape was completely different with her now that she was in Slytherin. The cold and harsh attitude he had always reserved for her in her Gryffindor days was gone, replaced with a sense of pride and approval. He seemed to almost appreciate her newfound rebellious attitude and her embrace of the darker side of the wizarding world.  As potions comes to a end..

Miss Granger stay behind. Professor Snape says in his signature cold and aloof manner
