I woke up the next morning hearing the train come by, the whole room was shaking again. That godamn train has kept me up all night, but Harry actually slept through it.

Lucky bastard...

I sat up and got dressed into my normal clothes, black jeans and a grey hoodie.
Harry was already up checking out the new books, i stood beside him looking at the hairy one. It had this red belt binding around it, and some sort of a mouth. I picked it up and opened the binding

-The Monster Book Of Monsters?- i read out loud.

Harry scrunched his eyebrows, and took it gently from my hands. He looked at it questioungly, suddenly it started biting after him.
I ran straight for the bed, Harry was right behind me. The book went under the bed, and then it was quiet. Harry looked at me with wide eyes -What was that?- i shrugged. He pushed me to the end of the bed -Check if it's still there.- he stuttered. i grumbeled and bent over to look for it. It was sitting under the bed glaring at me, it looked like a wierd spider, without the creepy legs.

Suddenly it started comming for me, i sat back up on the bed. The book came out on the floor and looked around, then it moved back under the bed. I smiled at Harry -Untie your shoe.- he was confused but started to untie his shoe. He gave me it -What for?- i smirked -When i drop this shoe, the book will go after it, then you jump on it, and i fasten the binding. Easy Peasy.- he sighted -Easier said than done.- i glared at him -Don't be such a pessimist.- he sighted -Ok, i'll do it.- i smiled. He stood up and looked down at the floor, i dropped the shoe. Once it hit the floor the book attacked it, Harry jumped and landed on the book. It made a wierd sound as he did.
I ran to get the binding, it was laying on the floor. I hurried to put it on the book, Harry was struggeling to hold it. Once we were done we bouth sighted relieved, i chuckled -Hagrid must be trying to kill us.- i said with a laugh. Harry scoffed -Nooo, what would make you think that?- he said sarcasticly.

I placed the book back onto the table, Harry grabbed my hand and dragged me with him out of the room. I looked to my right and saw a maid knocking on the doors, she didn't sound very intusiastic. She turned towards the door and knocked -Cleaning.- the door burst open and a loud roar came from inside, then it slammed shut again. I bit my lip to retain my chuckle.
Harry gasped as a cat crashed into his leg, the cat was orange, almost like Garfield. It shook his head and continiued to chase whatever it was chasing, propably a rat or something.

I walked towards the stairs, i heard familliar voices. I looked over the railing and saw Hermoine and Ron arguing -I'm warning you Hermoine, keep that scabby beast away from Scabbers!- Hermoine scoffed at this -It's a cat Ron, what had you expected? It's in their blood.- Ron's eyes widened -A cat? It looks more like a pig with fur to me.- Hermoine scoffed -And that says you who has a stinky old shoe brush.- Harry, witch stood beside me, cleared his voice. Ron looked up at us -Hi Harry! Lucy!- Hermoine turned towards us and smiled. We walked down and hugged them bouth, i grinned and put my arm around their shoulders from behind -So tell me, what was it about Shoe Brushes and Fur Balls?- they bouth blushed from embarrasment.

I chuckled and sat down by the table, Ginny sat beside me. She smiled and hugged me -Good to see you Lucy.- i smiled and hugged her back -You to Ginny.- i felt a tap on my shoulder, i turned around and saw Fred and George. I grinned and hugged them bouth -Hey there idiots.- they grinned and let me go -Well well well, there's our little trouble maker!- they said simultaneously -How was your summer?- i asked as they sat down on each side of me
-It was a bit dull.-
-Very dull.-
I furrowed my eyebrows -Oh? but i thought you guys went to Egypt and had a vacation?- they nodded
-We did.-
-But Percy-
-Had us fold-
-His underpants-
-Promptly after ironing them- they groaned.

My eyes widened -Who folds their underpants?!- i whispered. We all glanced towards the prefect, well, just looking at him answers that question -He's very dull- we all stated simultaneously. He glared at us as he sippped his tea. We waved as he left -Just wait Lucy, this year will be the perfect pranking year.- George stated -Oh? How?- they gave eachother a look -Well you just have to wait and see.- i groaned -You're no fun.- i whined like a five year old. I heard someone clear their voice, i looked up and saw Mrs. Weasley. I smiled and hugged her -Aw Lucy, long time no see. Have you got everything?- i smiled and nodded -Yep.- she looked at me "seriously" -You have everything packed?- i nodded, she hummed -And you got your books?- i nodded again, she smiled and patted my cheek playfully -Good girl.- Harry stood beside me and chuckled, i slapped his arm playfully. Mr. Weasley looked at us -Potter, may i have a word with you two?- we followed him into a more secluded area

-You're looking forward to the new year?-

Mr Weasley turned towards us, I nodded -Yeah.- he looked at both of us with a serious stare, he looked around -Harry, Lucy, there are some in the minestry that is against what i'm about to tell you now.- he stopped as some people walked by.
He pushed us further into the hallway as he continued -But i think you should know the facts.- Harry and i furrowed our eyebrows -About what?- i asked. Mr Weasley looked down at us -You two are in danger. Great danger.- Harry looked over at the wanted poster hanging on the wall -Does this involve Sirius Black, sir?- Mr. Weasley looked around and leaned against the pillar -What do you know about Sirius Black, Harry?- Harry shrugged slightly -Only that he escaped from Azkaban.- Mr. Weasley raised an eyebrow -Do you know why?- we both shook our heads -13 years ago, when you stopped......-
-Voldemort.- Harry answered. Mr. Weasley shook his head -Don't say his name.- Harry looked down -Sorry.-

-When you stopped, "you know who". Then Sirius lost everything, but still has he stayed a loyal servant. And in his mind, so are you two the only ones that's standing in the way for "you know who" to return. And that is why he escaped from Azkaban, to find you.-Mr weasley stopped and looked down at us -And to kill us.- i wispered. Mr. Weasley put his hands on our shoulders -Harry, Lucy i want you to promise me that whatever you hear, that you won't go looking for him.- he spoke seriously.
I scrunched my eyebrows -Mr. Weasley, why would i look for someone who wants to kill me?- he shook his head and sighted -Just promise me.- we both nodded.

What was that all about?

*Time Skip*

-Wait! Ronny, here he is, and you must not lose him again!- Mrs. Weasley shouted as she handed Ron his rat through the window. I chuckled -You lost him again?- Ron slapped my arm playfully -Shut up, and tell me what happened.- i sighted -I didn't mean to blow her up, i just.....lost control.- Ron laughted -That's awesome!- Hermoine rolled her eyes -That wasn't funny Ron! You're lucky you didn't get expelled!- Harry scoffed -I think she's lucky that she didn't get arrested.- his tone sour, but i know he's mad at himself.
But he couldn't do anything about it, what was he supposed to do? It's my fault, but i must admit, i don't really regret it.

We tried to find a place to sit, but the whole train was full. -Here, it's full everywhere else.- Hermoine said as she opened the door. A man was sitting near the window, the blanket covered most of his face -who's that?- Ron asked and sat down. Hermoine smiled -professor R.J Lupus.- Ron was shocked -You know everything you! How does she know that?- he looked at me and Harry for an answer. Hermoine sighted -It's written on his suitcase.- Ron's eyes widened -oh...- i chuckled. Harry looked at the man -do you think he's sleeping?- he asked hushed. I shrugged -I think so, why?- He stood up -We need to tell you something.- he said as he closed the door.
