Summary: No one noticed someone slip something into Draco Malfoy's drink. No one noticed when Draco Malfoy became ill. No one noticed, and now Hermione is paying for it.
Rating: K – Yes, I'm actually doing a cute mini-series!! Suitable for a family!! Gasp!
Warning: Dudes, ya gotta review or I'll crack yur skulls open. …..Juuuuuuus Kidding! Well, sort of – you still gotta review. :D Oh, and by the way, this fic will be really short. As in, under-ten-chapters short. It'll probably be as long as a rather long oneshot, when you tie all the chapters together.
Disclaimer: I do not claim ownership to Harry Potter. You all should know by now that JK Rowling does.
Reviews: I'll give you a cookie winkwink… C'mon, you know you wanna!
No One Noticed
By Mireekian
Monday Morning
"Hey, did you hear about that Zabini kid? Got put into the hospital wing…"
"Didn't Malfoy just have a huge row with him? Well, that's a coincidence."
"What about that Parkinson chick?"
"I heard she accused Malfoy of cheating with Granger – 'cause of the whole Heads-share-a-dorm-thing – and now she's holed up with some weird reaction too!"
"Same thing happened with Bulstrode and Goyle, I heard!"
"I guess that's why their table is so empty, huh?"
"If Malfoy goes on like this, there'll be no Slytherins around… this is gonna be great!"
Three days later…
"He got Loony Lovegood too!"
"Can you believe the nerve?! I just wanna know how he did it. There's no way he's getting to me."
"He got to Abbot, though. Even for a Hufflepuff, she's pretty smart. He must be sneaking some hex while their backs are turned. This has gotta stop before he gets too far!"
The Next Day…
"I can't believe this."
"Yeah. Me neither. I mean – Harry Potter. Harry Potter! And Ron Weasley, too!"
"I'm scared. I mean – you know who he is! He's gunna get us down, one-by-one. Soon there won't be anyone left to stop him."
"You think Dumbledore knows?"
"I don't know. All I know is that everyone Malfoy sends to the Hospital Wing doesn't come back."
"McGonagall said something about 'sanitary isolation.'"
"What's that? Sounds like some sort of muggle term."
"It probably is. All I know is, they've resorted to using muggle methods to counter Malfoy's work. He's probably made it so there's no cure! We gotta get to him. Gotta get to him first, before he gets to us."
"I agree. But how? There'd be too many witnesses for a hex."
"Hmm… Wait! I've got it! You know that spell you looked up? Why don't we try that, but add in some of our own spice. We can do it at dinner – make him eat or drink it so it affects him faster. There's no Slytherins left besides him, really. No one else could get hurt."
"I don't know…"
"Nobody'll notice! C'mon… he'll get us if we don't get him first!"
"Yeah. Hey yeah! You're right. I think that just might work."
"Exactly. Maybe this time it'll get Malfoy out of our hair for good."
