Seeing what had excited the monkey, both Pansy and Luna rushed over to greet their girlfriends, while the Gryffindors girl were having a conversation with Neville.

“That sounds really awful Hermione…” Pansy heard Neville say, the boy's face twisting as he looked at the monkey in Hermione’s arms
“I suppose it is rather unpleasant to see, one wouldn’t ( Read more... )

“Cornish Pixies? Imps? Doxies? What the bloody hell is a Doxy…?” Ginny asked, reading over the list of creatures that Hermione had been scribbling out on a fairly long piece of parchment
“It’s… um… a fairy like creature, commonly known as the Biting Fairy. Their bite is know to be venomous….” Hermione answered distantly, to engrossed with her work ( Read more... )

I do not own Harry Potter or any of the characters. All rights belong to JK Rowling.  I only own Sheridan, Lillianne, and the creatures Sheridan works with. I of course thank Sam and beautiful and loving girlfriend Carissa who keep me motivated. And my readers, reviews make a very happy me. I thank one of my reader for being a beta for me on this ( Read more... )

The next several weeks continued on rather smoothly. Harry continued to be a rising star with the Half-Blood Prince's notes, much to Hermione’s dismay as the boy continually showed her up in class, while Pansy reluctantly rejoined her classes. And on top of everything else, Hermione found herself forced into a regular eating routine by her friends ( Read more... )

Since this chapter was so long, I had to post it in two parts, so here's part two! Enjoy!

It had only taken a few moments for the three girls to reach the entrance to Gryffindors Common Room, where Ginny quickly assured the Fat Lady that Daphne was a guest before saying the password. As they entered, Ginny pulled Daphne down to duck her head as a ( Read more... )

Of all the moments for Hermione’s mind to completely shut down, it had to be now; when she needed it the most! She could not, for the life of herself, or Pansy for that matter, perform a single magic spell. She couldn’t even hold the wand steady.

“Hermione! Move!” Harry shouted with panic. Ron had somehow managed to slip between the people fending ( Read more... )

An hour had passed since the start of Sheridan’s task, and Hermione could have sworn they’d passed the same tree for a third time that night. The sun had set long ago, but even in the dark her lion eyes could see everything as if it were still day. 
And for some odd reason, it seemed as if the forest had gotten bigger, or perhaps it was her new form ( Read more... )

“Merlin’s Beard! You’ve done it again my dear boy!” Slughorn cried in excitement. It had been a couple of weeks since the weekend spent with Sheridan, and Harry, with the Half-Blood Prince's book, had finished a Sleeping Draught with high marks. As usual, Slughorn thought the boy was a genius, even though the book was practically giving the answers ( Read more... )

Hermione woke up in complete contentment to the feeling of Pansy spooning her from behind. Pansy's arms were wrapped around her waist and the feeling of the steady breathing on the back of her neck made her grin. She turned over so she could face the girl behind her and smiled when she was met with the other witches’ lazy gaze.

“Good Morning…” ( Read more... )

The following morning came quickly. Pansy had barely managed to sleep a wink. She'd been too excited and nervous to sleep. As soon as she saw sunlight, she rushed into the bathroom and took a hot shower, washed her hair, and brushed her teeth (twice) with extra care before picking out her clothes for the day. She wanted to dress to impress Hermione ( Read more... )
