The four of them spent most of their time in the library, looking for Nicholas Flamel, the man Hagrid had mentioned. Harry and Hermione would do the most of searching. Ron would sleep most of the time, and Luna would spend her time getting rid of nargles.
It was just another day when the foursome was exhausted as hell. The four of them slouched into the GCR couch.
"Who the fuck is this Nicholas Flamel? He's driving me crazy!" Ron said. Suddenly Hermione sprang from her seat.
"Stay here!" she said, and she sprinted up in her room. She came back with an enormous book in her arms.
"I never thought to look in here!" she said, flipping through the pages of the book. "I checked this out last week for a bit of light reading!"
"This is light?" Ron mocked. Hermione flashed a glare at him, that was enough to shut him up. At last she found what she was looking for.
"I knew it!" she exclaimed.
"What?" Harry asked.
"Nicholas Flamel," Hermione read out, "is the only known maker of the Philosopher's Stone!"
"The what?" Harry and Ron said in unison.
"The philospher's stone!" Luna said, "That stone with astonishing powers. It could turn any substance into pure gold. It also produces the Elixir of Life, that can make the drinker immortal!"
"Whoa, Luna! You remember the exact defination!" Hermione said, bewildered.
"You're not the only intelligent one!" Ron scoffed. Hermione scowled.
"That's it!" Harry stamped his palms on the table, "That's what the dog is guarding! And Snape is trying to get it! To get immortal!"
"We can't be so sure, Harry." Hermione said.
"Actually," Luna said, "we can. I heard Professor Snape-"
"You don't need to call him Professor, Luna!" Ron interrupted.
"Yes, I do, Ronald." Luna said calmly, "I heard Professor Snape talking about the Philosopher's stone to Professor Quirell."
"Seriously?" Hermione asked.
"Yes. He said something about getting past the 'beast' to get it." said Luna.
"What else did you hear?" Harry asked.
"I think, Hagrid is involved too. He knows how to put the dog to sleep." Luna said.
"That's it! We need to meet Hagrid, now!" said Harry. "Tonight, we sneak out of the castle, go to Hagrid'd and-"
"Enough of this!" Hermione cut in. "Have you gone crazy, Harry?"
"Yeah, he has!" Ron agreed. "Sneak out of the castle? Seriou-"
"Exams are just ten weeks away!" Hermione said. Harry looked as if he had been slapped.
"You kidding me?" he said, "You're worried about exams?"
"Go and bring your books! We have to make a plan." Hermione said.
"Sorry?"
"You heard me, Harry!" Hermione said.
"We have ten weeks! Ten weeks! That means- how many days, Ron?"
"Um.."
"Seventy days." Hermione scoffed.
"Yeah, seventy days!" Harry said, "We gotta solve this problem first!"
"Bring your books, Harry!" Hermione said, plainly.
