Anna walked inside the library and saw the librarian sitting at the front counter. She tried to catch her eyes to give a smile, but the librarian ignored her. As always! She continued walking happily along the library and to her surprised, found the library full of people. Great! I'll get distracted! She found a suitable spot at the far end and sat there, opened her Potions textbook and began reading it. The Sneezing Potion. Why do we have to learn this if we can't use it! Professor Swanton Always teaches us useless stuff. After reading a few paragraphs, her mind started to wonder aimlessly. Without realising that she was in the library and not in the dormitory, she fell asleep, snoring loudly.

Mouse Iscariot wandered through the crowded Library with a look of disgust and confusion on her face. Since when was the library considered a hang out? Did she not recieve the Memo?
Coming down an aisle she spotted a semi empty table, all there was was a snoring girl and her book. Taking a seat she stared at the girl for a moment. She was a Gryffindor. Mouse tilted her head to the side a bit and then prodded the girl with a finger. "Hey. Wake up."
When at first the girl did not wake up Mouse gave her an astonished look before prodded her again, "How can you even sleep in here? It's as loud as the Great Hall...."

Anna was riding a new Firebolt that mom had brought for her. She was zooming into the sky, passed the white clouds in front and wet her robes.
"How can you even sleep in here? It's as loud as the Great Hall...." Anna heard a voice and someone jabbing at her. She gave start. Her eyes opened widely, apparently red from all the sleep. She looked at the person in front of her. She was a Slytherin. She must be someone older though. She;s not in my year. "Oh hi! I didn;t get enough sleep last night. I three essays to finish. Mind you my OWLs are coming." Anna started to rub her red eyes. She realised she had left traces of drools all over her book.
"Oh great! I stained it - again!"

Mouse laughed pleasantly as the girl started to attempt to dry the book. "Sleep or no sleep, I have no idea how you do it."
With a flash of a smile she plopped open her book and began to read. After a few moments of what could have been silence she peeked up over her book, "I'm Mouse Iscariot by the way. Slytherin, 7th year."

"Anna Parish, Gryffindor and a fifth year. Hey great! You are a seventh year. Maybe you can help me out with my potions. I flunk it a few times and I'm having my OWLs this year." said Anna, surprised to find that she was talking to a Seventh year.
She took out her parchment, ink bottle and quill and arranged them on the table. She pushed her drool-stained book at the side.
"The library's quite a racket, but I'll try to concerntrate. By the way, I'm doing a sneezing potions essay on the pros and cons of it. A silly thing to write on if I may say so."

Mouse laughed slightly, "Calm down there, hunning. Sneezing Potion? That's easy. Pros it's always effective, small amount goes a long way, and it's easy to make. Cons it's antidote is harder to brew than the potion itself, if you happen to breathe in any potion the sneeze out you can start sneezing as well."
Giving her a smile she returned back to her book, "That help at all?"

"Gosh, thanks!" said Anna brightly. At least she had a few pointers she could write on now. " didn't know Slytherin could be helpful. "Thanks again". Anna started to write on her parchment straight away. Professor want it 2 parchments long. Urgh, this could take forever!
"You must be good in your potions, huh" asked Anna suddenly. "Hey, you've finished your OWLs, right? Was it easy? What grade did you get?"

Mouse smiled at Anna, "We aren't sll stuck up and mean. I scored highest for my year in Potions and mediocre on all the rest." She shrugged, "I guess I'm just gifted when it comes to potions. Who knew?" She laughed and continued to read her book, at theeady in case Anna had anymore questions.

"Nice! Glad to meet a fellow slytherin. After what happened to Albus Dumbledore and the Death Eaters all being free, I thought all the slytherins would just fled away. Guess I was wrong!" said Anna. She gave the girl a wink.
Things seemed normal alright at Hogwarts. "Do you know any friends of your thats gone from here?"
