Chapter 7: What is the shame in it?

"Wake up Larry. I've good news for you" Hermione shook Larry who is sleeping in her bed.

"Whaattt?" Larry asked.

"I got the schedules for our classes" Hermione said cheerfully.

"You can go today. I'll take sick leave today" Larry said in sleepy voice.

"Larry" Hermione called.

"Okay. At least, let me skip the first two classes. I'll join after lunch" Larry covered her face with her bedsheet.

"That is what you should not do. We've our first two classes with Slytherin. So get ready asap" Hermione pulled Larry's bedsheet. 

"Why's that?" Larry confused.

"Because you can see your Draco" Hermione winked at Larry. 

"What?" Larry face become angry.

"I said that you love green right? You can see green uniforms" Hermione grinned and left the dormitory.

Larry got ready and met Hermione who was talking with Ron and Harry.

"You got ready so fast Larry?" Harry amazed.

"We're getting late. We need to hurry" Larry told Hermione ignoring Harry.

They reached the transfiguration class. Larry saw Draco sitting with his friends in one table.

Larry pulled Hermione to sit with her. She sat on the table from where she can see Draco clearly.

Ron and Harry took the table beside them. Ron teased Larry for that.

Larry was about to hit him with her book when the cat watching everything turned into Professor McGonagall.

"Good morning students. Welcome to transfiguration class. It is the most complex and dangerous magic. I don't want anyone to practice this out of the class" Professor McGonagall warned them.

"And I hate violent behaviour in my class" she added sternly seeing Larry and Ron.

She turned her desk into a pig and turned back to desk. Everyone in the class amazed.

Harry was in shock. The cat he used to see in privet drive is the same cat. She asked everyone to turn a match box into needle.

Hermione turned the match box into sharp pointed silver needle and back. Larry's needle exploded like a crack. Some students tried and tried. Ron turned the first half of the match box into needle and second half was still match box. Everyone laughed at Ron.

"At least he turned the half, some of you didn't even tried to turn it" Professor McGonagall told sternly and smiled encouragingly at Ron.

Larry tried to turn the Hermione's match box which exploded after turned into needle.

"Try slowly. Keep your mind relax Larry" Hermoine advised her.

"I don't want your concern" Larry glared and picked up her things to leave.

"Everyone can leave now. I want everyone to submit assignments tomorrow, regarding first index of your transfiguration book"

Larry walked faster to avoid Hermoine. Hermoine was chasing her.

"What is the shame in it? What is the shame in accepting advice from your friend?" Hermoine asked Larry who was ignoring her and walking fast.

"Tell me now. You egoistic fellow" Hermoine pulled Larry's hand to make her stop.

"I am not your friend" Larry pushed Hermione to release herself from Hermione's grip. Hermoine fell on Draco who was walking to his next class.

"Don't walk with your eyes closed mud blood" Draco told her while cleaning his robes where Hermoine fell.

 "If your mouth spelled another word about her, I'll make sure that your mouth spill blood" Ron shouted.

 "Let see who spills the blood. Whatever, it doesn't make any changes with the fact of she is a mud blood" Draco laughed along with his friends.

 "You are the worst mud blood creature Malfoy. Malfoys are worst mud blood creatures" Larry scolded him. She thought mud blood was some bad word in magic world.

 Everyone who was watching the fight and the students walking at the corridor laughed hearing Larry.

 "You people go to hell" Larry shouted confusingly and left.

 Their next class is herbology with Hufflepuff.

"Yuck. Yellow everywhere" Larry told Ron.

"Seriously?" Ron shook his head.

"Seriously what? What is about commenting the colours?"

"No Larry. I am not talking about that. You called Draco a mud blood!!!" he wondered while looking the plant that Professor Sprout gave them to observe.

 "Yeah. I saw the anger in your face while he told that. I guessed that would be some bad word. If calling mud blood was an insult, then Draco deserves that" Larry threw back her brown curly hair that was falling over her face.

 "No. Malfoys are Pure blood Larry. They are from magical family"

 "It sounds like you are praising him Ron" she tapped the plant with her left hand which started to vibrate.

 "Oh god, not another explosion" Ron closed his eyes.

 "Wonderful Larry. This is what I was expecting" Professor Sprout amazed.

No one had any clue about what the Professor was talking.

Professor asked "Anyone knows about this plant Cerebral?"

"I knew it. I knew it. Oh my god, how did I missed?" Hermoine murmured and raised her hand.

 "This plant Cerebral is known as the most intelligent plant. There are two types of cerebral plants, one is green cerebral and yellow cerebral. If someone consumes the cerebral plant, they'll get knowledge. Someone says that green is good for left brain and yellow is good for right brain" Hermoine finished.

 "Very good Hermoine. Five points to Gryffindor" Professor Sprout told.

 "We are using this plant in our hospital wing for the people with stress. The people who injured in head can consume this plant and can be recovered easily" another boy from Hufflepuff who was tall for their age said.

"Good. Five points for Hufflepuff. I hope you listened them carefully…" Professor Sprout started to teach something.

"From where Hermoine get to know these things? Her parents will teach her?" Larry hissed to Ron.

 Ron looked her confusingly and asked "No. Her parents doesn't know about magic. That is the reason for the mud blood problem. Anyway, who is that fellow from Hufflepuff and why he smiled at Hermoine after he finished talking"

"Oh Ron. Come on. Don't be jealous. Hermoine is yours" Larry pulled Ron's cheeks.

They were sitting in the Gryffindors' dining table for their lunch. Hermoine was not eating anything.

 "If you didn't eat anything now, you will not get any food. Ron and Harry will empty all the food" Larry turned to them. Both of them was eating like they never had food in their life.

 "I don't want to continue in this school" Hermoine pushed away her plate.

 "For what? That mud blood thing?" Larry asked stuffing the sandwich inside her mouth.

Hermoine nodded.

"First tell me what is that mud blood, Hermoine"

"I am from a non-magic family. They call the people without magic as muggles. The children of muggles with magic are mud blood" Hermoine told looking at her plate.

 "Some people here thinks that this is some shame" Ron chewed the remaining words with the chicken he was eating.

 "What is the shame in it? Actually you should be proud for this. No one in your family got magic but you got. You are special. If this is the case all the mud bloods are special, they got magic. Magic chose them unlike some pure blood people who inherits magic by compulsion" Larry shouted enough so that Slytherins could hear her.

Some students from Ravenclaw table clapped. Ron and Harry whistled along with the Gryffindor students.

 "Thank you so much Larry" Hermoine hugged her.

"Eww. Get away from me. I don't like these things. I didn't advice or support you. I just told the fact" Larry finished her sandwich.
