Beyond ExpectationsThe usual peaceful streets of Hogsmeade were filled with the blabber of Hogwarts students, thinking that it is a free-school day while forgetting the amount of homework they had been purposefully given.
The Three Broomsticks was as crowded as usual, as students went to and fro with mugs in their hands, excited for no reason at all. They often seem to act that way, like when they meet the famous Harry Potter.
Among the throng, the famous trio couldn’t have been forgotten. Miss Granger got up bossily from their table and went to the bar to get drinks for them all. There she found herself face to face with none other than Miss Lovegood, clutching a copy of the magazine
The Quibbler in her hands. It is ridiculous to think that a girl, who is supposed to have enough wit to be in Ravenclaw, should read such a ludicrous magazine. Clumsy Longbottom sat beside her, beaming, perhaps thinking that Miss Granger would help him in some essay again.
“Hermione! You should really read this!” he said excitedly, waving at her, showering butterbeer all over his robes.
Miss Granger sidled next to him, looking over his shoulder as he read the article in a quivering manner, clutching his own copy of the magazine.
“
Weird Sisters or Just Weird?
Are they more than they seem?
Among the most talented voices broadcasted on the Wide Wizarding Network (WWN), the musical group, The Weird Sisters is one of the most popular. Its eight members are widely known, and their songs are said to be as unique as their style. Recently the group translated their latest song, “Poison-bound” into Troll. In answer to [I]The Quibbler’s inquiries, the group’s lead singer Myron Wagtail stated that they wished that every person and creature be allowed to enjoy their music.
BUT DO THEY?
It is known that Trolls are an ignorant type of creature, with no interest in music whatsoever. So what is The Weird Sisters’ REAL purpose? All of the group’s members are excellent speakers of Troll. Could it be that their translated song but be a message to all the Trolls for a renewed allegiance with the Dark Lord? Perhaps, the members are Tro-[/I]”
“Oh what rubbish!” Miss Granger rudely interrupted, not for the first time in her life. Longbottom sat staring stupidly at her.
“What’s wrong with the article?” Miss Lovegood asked, drifting back to reality.
“Honestly, Potions class is
far more interesting than that! How could
The Weird Sisters be trolls? That would be like comparing Professor Snape to Lockhart! It’s all nonsense! You should all be studying the properties of the bezoar, especially you Neville,” she shot at them.
With that, she spun around and walked back to Weasley and Potter, taking a leaf out of Longbottom’s stained book and forgetting to buy drinks.
“What’s up?” Weasley asked, fuming at her forgetfulness.
“According to
The Quibbler,
The Weird Sisters are supposed to be trolls in disguise, just because they are fluent in the language, and that they are trying to reassemble the Dark Lord’s army of trolls,” Miss Granger said sceptically, in her know-it-all manner. Unfortunately, she always acts in her superior way, showing off in class and shadowing all the other students in her year except the brilliant students of Slytherin House, with her supposed knowledge.
“That’s why Colin was so excited this morning,” Weasley sputtered. “He and Dennis had a real fight at breakfast over who could read it first,” he said, referring to the same article which the Slytherins had all noticed and read before any Gryffindor.
“It’s all nonsense! How can you believe
that?” Miss Granger returned hotly, causing more people than they already had, to notice their presence, which was nothing special at all.
“Who said I di- Harry are you all right?” Weasley asked suddenly, over-reacting.
Potter sat hunched at the table, clutching his scar tightly.

The Dark Lord rose from his seat, his red-blood eyes shining, laughing menacingly. He turned to a group of his most faithful Death Eaters.
“He is alone. Go! Hogwarts won’t be Harry Potter’s safe refuge with Dumbledore for much longer.”

He should have listened; he should have learned how to control it. But no. He was the famous Potter and he didn’t care what risks others put themselves in, just to keep him alive. He had never learned how to master Occlumency, and his mind was just as weak as himself. Then again, he is James Potter’s son, and no son of that man could have ever turned out as unlike his father as Potter; just as rude, just the mischief-maker, just the same Potter.
I like to sing "Double Double Boil and Trouble...." while playing with my chemistry set.
