[Students stream into the Quidditch Stadium.]

"YAY QUIDDITCH!!" James yells out

[Hazel, dressed in his Quidditch robes, dashes down the staircase with Ron and Hermione. Down below, Ron spies Ginny.]
Ron: Hey, Ginny! Going to the match?
[Ginny looks up, startled, then shakes her head and exits.]

"She's acting really strange," Regulus says thinking out loud.

Ron: I tell you, she gets weirder and weirder by the day
Voice: Kill this time... Let me rip... tare.

"I forgot about that voice," Sirius says, freezing slightly.

[Hazel freezes. Ron and Hermione stop, knowing by her face]
Ron: No... don't tell me...
[Hazel turns, as if following the sound, absently touching her fingers to the wall as she glances around. Hermione studies her with great interest -- studies her fingers-- then, abruptly, Hazel turns away, shakes her head: it's gone. Hermione looks up, eyes vaguely upon Hazel, but her mind miles away.]

"She's realized something," Remus says suddenly as he looks at the on screen Hermione.

Hermione: Hazel... I think I've just understood something! I've got to go to the library!

"Ew not the library," James and Sirius say together getting a glare from Remus and Lily.

[As Hermione sprints back up the stairs, Hazel yells.]
Hazel: What do you understand!

"She's not gonna tell you," Barty teases.

[But she's gone. Hazel turns to Ron in puzzlement.]
Hazel: The library?
Ron: That's Hermione. When in doubt, go to the library

"That's not a bad mindset to have," Lily says with a smile getting a nod from Remus as well.

[Hazel and her teammates march toward the Quidditch tower. The cheers of the crowd are heard.]
Oliver: Listen up now. We play our game, Hufflepuff doesn't stand a chance. We're stronger, quicker, smarter.
George: Not to mention they're dead terrified Hazel will petrify them if they fly anywhere near her.

"Still not the right thing to be saying at the moment," Molly yells out annoyed with him.
"Well it was true!" George defends himself.

Oliver: That, too.
[Just then, Professor McGonagall appears, barring their way.]

"Something must have happened because I haven't seen her act that way like ever," Mary says, slightly nervous not forgetting about the voice they had heard earlier.

Oliver: Professor McGonagall
McGonagall: This match has been canceled.

"WHAT?! You can't cancel quidditch!" James and Sirius yell out. Almost everyone is nodding their heads in agreement to that.

Oliver: Canceled! They can't cancel Quidditch

"Kid got his priorities straight," James mutters, upset.

McGonagall: Silence, Wood! You will return to Gryffindor Tower now. Potter, you and I will find Mr. Weasley. There's something the both of you need to see.

"What would they need to see?" Regulus questions trying to figure it out.
"Hermione was alone! And she didn't mention finding Hermione!!" Remus says suddenly making some people panic slightly worried about the girl.

[McGonagall pauses outside the door, turns to Hazel and Ron.]
McGonagall: I warn you. This will be a bit of a shock.
[She opens the door. Madam Pomfrey is leaning over a bed where a girl lies. As she straightens up, we see the girl is Hermione]
