Transformation, Part One

The quartet studied and Harry was being burdened with dark thoughts he glanced up to see Iron staring dreamily at (Name) nudging him. Ron looked up and smiled at Harry and Moments later so did the two girls. Something forced about it all, Unable to bear it, Harry gathers his books, gets up from the table. (Name) doing the same smiling at the boy, students glance up, meeting their gaze, and then look away. Even Madame Pince the librarian eyed them from her desk. They looked over and seen  Ginny Weasley, tired and pale, scribbles furiously in a small black book that she now carried with her everywhere. They exit the Libary and walked into the hallway and they stop. From inside a small room, the voices of a group of Hufflepuffs can be heard, "So, anyway, I told Justin to hideup in our dormitory. I mean tosay, if Potter or Windsor marked him downas their next victim, it's best hekeeps a low profile for a while. I always knew that girl was too nice especially for a Slytherin" (Name) tightened and Harry grabbed her hand and shook his head. "But why would they want to attackJustin?" a girl's voice piped up, "Justin let it slip to Potter thathe was Muggle-born." "And you definitely think Potter'sthe Heir of Slytherin?" "Hannah, they're a Parselmouth's.Everyone knows that's the mark ofa dark wizard. Have you everheard of a decent one who couldtalk to snakes? They calledSlytherin himself Serpent-tongue. Remember what was written on the wall: Enemies of the Heir Beware.Potter had some sort of run-inwith Filch. Next thing we know,Filch's cat's attacked. Thatfirst-year Creevey's been annoying Potter. Then Creevey's attacked." The boy muttered darkly "What about (Name) she has always been so nice, to everyone! Plus Harry made you-know-who disappear!" "That's probably why You Know Whowanted to kill him in the firstplace. Didn't want another DarkLord competing with him. as for the girl, I don't know maybe it is just because she's a descendant of Merlin"

Harry didn't want to hear anymore he was fuming he grasps (name)'s wrists harshly, her skin was so smooth he thought to himself and began dragging the girl through the halls. "Harry? Harry? where are we going! (Name) spoke her voice silky as she dug her heels into the floor causing them to stop. Harry looked at her, her hair was framing her face smoothly and her eyes were full of mellowness. "I don't know" he simply answered, she nodded and his grip on her wrist loosened. As he continued storming towards the hut he ran straight into hagrid who was holding a dead rooster "All righ', Harry?" Hagrid questioned "Hagrid... what're you doinghere?" Harry looked up at the man, "The second one killed this term.Reckon it's either foxes or aBlood-Suckin' Bugbear. NeedDumbledore's permission ter put acharm round the hen-coop. Yeh sure yeh're all righ', Harry? Yehlooks all hot an' bothered." Hagrid was clearly concerned for the boy and (Name) stood behind him peering up at Hagrid a small smile on her features. "It's nothing. I'd better getgoing. I've got a lot of studying..." and Harry sped off his grip never faltering on the girl's wrist. He walked her back to her common room bidding her goodbye as she disappeared behind the painting. what is this feeling?


Students drift into the snow with their trunks, heading home for holiday. As (Name), Harry, Ron, and Hermione appear, a few students cast them wary glances. "Make way for the Heir ofSlytherin! Seriously evil wizards coming through!" Fred joked and (Name) and Ron grinned at the joke amused and looked at Harry who was not amused, not in the slightest. "Oh, c'mon, Harry. Fred's justhaving a laugh." Ron tried to make Harry smile, "He's the only one." He replied bitterly and (name) rolled her eyes, "Okay, so half the school thinksyou're nipping off to the Chamberof Secrets every night. Whocares? I'm in the same boat!" "Well maybe they're right" Harry was clearly frustrated. "Harry!" Hermione scolds and he looks at her, "I didn't know I could speakParseltongue. What else don't Iknow about myself? Maybe you cando something... even somethinghorrible... and not know you didit." He said grimly disgusted with himself. "you don't believe that Harry! We know you don't! And if it makesyou feel better, I just overheard something in the common rooms! Malfoy's staying over for holiday,too." (Name) smiled at Harry hopefully that tiny bit of good news will make him stop being so grouchy. "Why would that make anyone feelbetter?" Ron questioned and Hermione sighed "Because, in a few days, thePolyjuice potions will be ready.In a few days... we may truly know who is the Heir of Slytherin."

They all sat in the great hall for the Christmas feast the Hall glimmers grandly as snowflakes tumble from the ceiling. Ron and Harry sit with Hermione at the Gryffindor table while (Name) sat alone at the Slytherin table as far away from the only other 3 Slytherin's that stayed Crabble, Goyle and Draco. 

A wave of bordem hit (Name) so she stood and walked over to the Gryffindor table sitting across from the trio. "I've got it all worked out. I'vefilled these with a simpleSleeping Draught. Simple, butpowerful-- oh Hi (name)" Hermione smiled as the girl sat down and turned to look at the three boys eating at the Slytherin table. "You know how greedy Crabbe andGoyle are. They won't leave the Christmas Feast until every last drop of trifle is gone." (Name) laughed lightly the trio snickering at her comment. "Now, once they're asleep, hidethem in a broom cupboard and pullout a few of their hairs," Hermione concluded, "And whose hair are you ripping out?" Ron asked Hermione who pulled out a vile with a small hair in it "Millicent Bulstrode. She's inSlytherin. I got this off herrobes. All right then... I'm going to check on the Polyjuice Potion. Make sure Crabble and Goyle get these!" Hermione stood up and walked out. "Have you ever heard of a planwhere so many things could gowrong?" Ron sniggered.

(Name), Harry and Ron, were lurking behind a suit of armour, and they watch as  Crabbe and Goyle exit the Great Hall. Goyle spies the cakes instantly, perched on the end of one of the bannisters he ran over to them. Grabbing them, he reluctantly surrenders one to Crabbe and, in unison, they stuff them into their mouths. They pause. Look at each other. And keel flat onto their backs. Harry and Ron dash out, drag Crabbe and Goyle across the floor and into a cupboard. They came out a few moments later in Slytherin robes and (Name) popped out from behind the armour "you two would have made cute Slytherins!" she beamed and they flushed red looking at each other as they snuck off to moaning myrtle's bathroom the two boys trying their best not to be seen. They entered the bathroom and there stood Hermione in a Slytherin robe, "Did you get it?" she questioned looking at the two as they held up tufts of hair. "I'm sure I've done everythingright. It looks like the booksaid it should. Once you have drunkit, you'll have exactly one hourbefore you change back into yourselves." (Name) warned and the three smiled thanking her for her hard work. "Now what?" "I'll separate them into three glasses and then you guys will add the hair" Harry and Ron Grimace at (Name)'s words as she began to pour the liquid into three separate cups. The three raise their glasses and add the hair and drink it quickly, Hermione and Ron began to gag.

 "I think- I think, I'll wait outside"
