I am back with a lil bit of Hermione fluff to start us off before we dive into the more serious stuff! There is only one more part of the story after this! I hope you enjoy!
Everything that could have possibly gone wrong with the quadruple's plan did, in fact, go wrong.
We were back in the Gryffindor's common area a few hours after we had set off.
Hermione explained how Professor Snape had spotted her and then went into the staff lounge to get Professor Flitwick for the brunette after hearing her story of wanting to check up on her finals.
As soon as Hermione finished her explanation, Harry would take the lead on telling our friend how we had all been caught by Professor McGonagall who threatened to take points if she spotted our group near the forbidden corridor again, she left muttering about how we thought we would be better protection than the charms of trained Professors.
"Well, that's it then, isn't it?" Harry would say, eyes glittering, it hurt my heart seeing him so defeated. "I'm going down there. Tonight. I'm going to see if I can't grab the stone first." The boy would continue, gasps of horror coming from Ron and Hermione.
"You're absolutely mad!" The redhead would cry followed up by Hermione.
"You can't Harry! After what Professor McGonagall said, you'll be expelled!" she would add in frantically.
The brunette and redhead would then look to me for support only to be met by silence as I thought about the situation we were in.
Taking my silence as an answer, Harry would shout, "SO WHAT! Don't any of you understand? If whoever is going down there tonight gets the stone, Voldemort is coming back! Haven't you heard the stories?! He'll destroy Hogwarts and kill anyone who stands in the way! If I get expelled I'll just have to go back to the Dursleys and wait for him to kill me there, it's still dying, just later." He'd say, huffing for breath after finishing his rant.
"Okay." I would say simply.
"You're right Harry." Hermione would reply in defeat.
"I'll take the invisibility cloak," Harry would say in return, "It's just lucky I got it back."
Both Hermione and I would look to Ron this time, a small smile spreading across my lips as he nodded and returned the expression asking, "But will it fit all four of us underneath?"
"All... All four of us?" Harry would say dumbfounded as our message sank in.
"Harry! How many times do we need to tell you that we're not leaving you to face any of this alone!" I would say with a grin.
"Exactly." Hermione would reply, "I better go look through my books and see if I can't find anything useful."
"Plus, there's no way you would be able to get that stone without the three of us to support you." Ron would say with a grin of his own.
"But if we get caught, the three of you will be expelled too!" Harry would reply, still trying to wrap his head around the support of his friends.
"Like you said, so what? It won't matter if that stone brings back Voldemort." I would reply, "The moment everyone goes to bed we set out." I would say with finality.
It wasn't long before everyone went to their dorms for curfew, getting ready for bed. The quadruple decided it'd be best to wait an hour to make sure everyone had fallen asleep before heading downstairs.
As our other roommates got ready for bed, I would climb into Hermione's bed, nervous for tonight and not really wanting to be alone, especially not if whoever was going for the stone tonight decided to take a detour while the castle slept...
