Authors Note: This is just a note to all my reader and future readers, I have just graduated and will have more time to post stories or chapters to stories, but I will also be taking college classes during the summer before starting College and that will take up some of my time. But I will try to post new chapters every two weeks. For the stories that I already have up I will be rewriting them, while also starting new stories. All I ask for is a little patience and understanding, so that I can achieve the goal I set for myself on how I what my stories to turn out.

Thanks, BabyGurl96

P.S. Voldemort won't be in this story; I changed the time line for the defeat of Voldemort in their Sixth year instead of their Seventh. I found it easier to work with how I want the story to go, but don't worry there will still be some action and conflict just not with Voldemort.

Chapter One:

Early rays of sunlight streamed in from the window throughout the boy's dorm in Gryffindor Tower, the sound of the birds chirping outside flowed into the room. Around the room were five medium size canopy beds all fixed in a slight circle so that they faced each other. Soon movement came from the bodies in the beds and the boys started getting up to get ready for the day. A dark haired boy poked his head out of the warm cocoon of blankets surrounding him. Swinging his legs over the edge of the bed and sitting upright, Harry stretched his arms up over his head and let out a loud groan. "Gees , mate the way you sound it's like you didn't get a lick of sleep last night" Seamus chuckled from his place on his bed tying up his shoes. Wiping the sleep from his eyes he replied "I got a lot of sleep last night Seamus I just don't want to get up" Seamus snorted at his reply. Standing up from his bed Harry looked around and notice that just Seamus, Dean, Neville, and he were the only ones up and getting ready.

Looking over to Ron's bed next to his, he saw that the red head was still tucked fast in his bed and fast asleep. Rolling his eyes Harry walked over to his bed leaning down Harry shuck Ron's shoulder "Hey, mate wake up" all he got was a grumbled reply. Trying again he shuck harder, but this time Ron just rolled over away and mumbled a leave me alone. Annoyed Harry went to the end of the bed and reached under the blankets he grabbed Ron's ankles firmly and pulled hard. A yelp emitted from Ron as he was pulled from the comfort of his bed and fell on the floor with a loud thump. Seamus and the others roared with laughter at the disgruntle look on Ron's face as he scrambled up off the floor. "What the bloody hell, Harry?" Ron yelled furiously turning to face him with an irate grimace on his face. "Don't yell at me, I tried to get you up but you didn't so I made you" harry said as he walked to his trunk at the end of his bed and pull out some clothes to wear. "Well you didn't have to do it that way" Ron grumbled, getting just a shrug in reply he turned back towards his bed and started to gather his stuff to get ready.

After they had finish getting dress and gathered their books they headed out the dorm and down stairs to breakfast. The others had left before them having been ready before them, as they headed out the portrait door Hermione joined them. "Good morning Harry, Ron did you guys finish you're charms essay" she asked as they walked towards the Great Hall. Harry and Ron shared a look and rolled their eyes "Yes Hermione" they replied. "Good, because you guys can't be slacking off this year like the years before" she said as they finally arrived at the Great Hall and headed inside and towards their house table. "This year is very important with it being our Seventh year and we have N.E.W.T s this year, you must stay focus" Hermione continued to ramble on as they sat down and started to pile food on their plates. Harry and Ron just blocked her rambling out and enjoyed their food. It's not that they didn't like Hermione, but recently she has become more of an annoyance then a friend. "Are you guys even listening to me" Hermione asked as she paused in her rant.

Harry sighed and put down his fork "Yes, we get it Hermione this year is more important than all the others and we shouldn't slack off on our work, but seriously Hermione we just finished a war at you let up just a bit you're continuous rant on how we should stay focus and not joke around is getting pretty old" Harry said and went back to eating and ignoring Hermione's shocked expression. "Well I just wanted to make sure that you guys stayed on track" she continued to press. Ron rolled his eyes and Harry sighed again but continues to eat, it was no use arguing with her she will just continue to do it especially when she thought she was right. When they were finished up eating they headed towards their first class of the day, which was potions with the Slytherins. They filed into the class room and sat down at a table in the middle of the classroom Harry in the middle Ron on his right and Hermione on his left.

"I wonder what Professor Snape will have us brew today" Hermione question as she started taking out her book and supplies. "Probably something extremely difficult and then when we get it wrong he berate us" Ron muttered back. Harry nodded in agreement, actually after the defeat of Voldemort and Harry finding out the truth of whose side he was on, Ron and he have become more pleasant with Snape over the Summer at Grimmuald Place when the Order had a meeting and when he came over the give Remus the wolfsbane. The class got silent as Snape came into the room. "Today you will be brewing a revealer potion, it's most commonly used by Aurors when their interrogating suspects who are under the influence of the polyjuice potion or using a complex glamour charm." Snape explain when he reached the front of classroom and lean up against his desk.

"This is a very complex and delicate potion and requires a lot of attention, I recommend that you pay attention to all of the instructions and what ingredients go in when or you will be making a trip to the hospital wing and staying a long time" Snape warned before putting what ingredients that they will need for the potion on the board. Ron shot Harry a knowing look for he was right in guessing Snape would give them a difficult potion to brew. They got up to go get the ingredients for the potion and get started working. As they were setting up their supplies Neville walked up to their table "Hey Harry, Ron can I work with you guys" he asked. "Sure, no problem mate" Harry said ignoring Ron's pointed look. Neville smiled "Thanks guys" he went to go get his stuff from his seat. "Why you do that mate, I like Neville and all his a good guy, but you and I know that his no bloody good at potions hack we're no bloody good at potions, but at least we're better than him" Ron complained quietly. Harry shot Ron a glare "I know that but Neville is a good guy and I'll let him join us we'll just have to make sure he doesn't do anything to mess up the potion" Harry answered back.

"So what do you want me to do" Neville asked as he came back setting his stuff down beside their table. "Well you can help Ron chop up twelve flobberworms to start off, while I crush the dragon fly wings" Harry replied. The room was silent as everyone got to work on the potion. As they worked Snape walked around observing their work and how they were doing he would sneer at some and make cutting comment and move on. He walked by Malfoy, Zabini, and Nott's table and nodded approvingly at their potion. He headed towards their table he lean down and looked at their potion which was a pinkish purple color like it was suppose to be at the half way point, with a neutral expression on his face he said "So far so good, continue" and walked away. "I guess that's his version of well done" Harry whispered to Ron and Neville who nodded their heads in agreement.

Everything was going good until they heard Goyle and Crabbe shout behind them, they and everyone else turned towards their table and saw that their potion was bubbling over out of their cauldron. Something had gone wrong cause instead of their potion being a lavender color like it was suppose to be it was vivid green. Some the potion started running over the edge of the cauldron, the bubbles got higher and higher before Professor Snape could yell for everyone to get down the potion erupted from the cauldron. The eruption was so strong that it blew everyone in close vicinity across the room. Harry, Ron, and Neville were sent flying towards the front of the room.

Knocking his head against a desk his glasses were knocked off and his vision was blurry from the blow, rolling over on to his side he saw the outlines of Ron and Neville a foot away they were obviously unconscious. He also notice what looked like Malfoy, Zabini, and Nott not so far away also unconscious. A throbbing in his head from the blow increased he became lightheaded and couldn't focus on anything. Laying his head down on the floor he saw the dark outline of Professor Snape coming towards him, reaching up towards him he tried to say something but the pain was just so intense before he could say something he passed out. The last thing he saw was Professor Snape leaning down over him.
