Emmett smiled at the screen, then straight at his new sister. "  You sure look like detectives".

Holly sheepish says "  i was just very good with puzzles".

Then the screen change to

Chapter fourteen

Norbert the Norwegian ridgeback

" Dragons! Said the order.

” dragons are real? Ask Emmett.

" Hagrid nodded excitedly.

Quirrell , however , must have been braver than they'd though. In the weeks that followed he did seem to be getting paler and thinner , but it didn't look as thought he'd cracked yet.  Every time they passed the third floor corridor, holly,Albus , Ron and Hermione would press their ears to the door to check that fluffy was still growing inside. Snape was sweeping about in his usual bad temper , which surely meant that the stone was still sàfe . Whenever holly passed quirrell these days she gave him an encouraging sort of smile  , and Ron and Albus had started telling people off for laughing at quirrell's stutter.

Holly was mumbling to her. " All that time , he must have been planning".

Edward looked at her confused thinking " she was being nice , what got her so be so mad at this man . He reading his family they wondering the same as him.

Hermione, however , had more on her mind than the philospher's stone . She had started drawing up revision timetables and colour coding all her notes. Albus and Ron was getting angry at Hermione nagging them to do the same. Holly had all done weeks ago. " Hermione, the exams are ages away"." Ten weeks', Hermione snapped. " That's not ages , that's like a second to nicolas flamel ". " But we're not six hundred years old', Ron reminded her . " Anyway, what are you revising for , you already know it all".  " What am I revising for ? " Are you mad ? You realise we need to pas  these exams to get into the second year? They've very important, I should have started studying a mouth ago , I don't know what's got into me ..."

Aah made friends with trouble makers". Said Fred . Lee and George high five each other.

Unfortunately, the teachers seemed to be thinking along the same lines as Hermione. They piled so much homework on them that the Easter holidays was a fun one . Dad and lovegood , Luna send her a basket of chocolate eggs and bunnies to share with her house mates.

" Aww you so kind ". Said molly to regulus. Whose face red as her hair.

It was hard to concentrate with Hermione next to you reciting the twelve uses of dragon's blood or practicing wand movements. Moaning and yawning, Albus and Ron spent their time doing while holly and Hermione's trying to get through all their extra work. " I'll never remember this". Ron burst out one afternoon , throwing down his quill and looking longingly out of the library window . It was the first really fine day they'd had in mouths . The sky was a clear , forget me not blue and there was a feeling in the air of summer coming. Holly , who was looking up ' dittany ' in one thousand magical herbs and fungi , didn't look up until she heard Ron and Albus say " hagrid! " What are you doing In the library?".

" Hagrid in a library? Question James

Hagrid shuffled into view , hiding something behind his back . He looked very out of plàce in his moleskin overcoat . " Jus' lookin', he said , in a shifty voice that got their interest at once . " An ' what're you lot up ter? He looked suddenly suspicious. " Yet not still lookin fer Nicolas flamel, are yeh"? ' oh , we found out who he is ages ago ', said Ron impressively . ' and we know what that dog's guarding, it's a philospher's st_". " Shhhh! Hagrid looked around quickly to see if anyone was listening. " Don' go shoutin ' about it , what's the matter with yeh"? " There are a few thiñgs we wanted to ask you , as a matter of fact', said Albus , " about what's guarding the stone apart from fluffy _'. " Shhhh! Said hagrid again.
