She glanced at the window, and saw a dumbstruck Lavender Brown. Lavender slid open the door.
"How are you still on this train?! You were expelled!"
"I was re-instated," replied Hermione. "In fact, I'm still a prefect."
Lavender's jaw opened and closed several times.
"Also, thank you for informing me of who attempted to have me expelled."
"Hermione, be nice," said Luna.
"Oh, I will be." And with that, Hermione smiled. Lavender shivered, before she spoke again.
"You're just a muggleborn, though," said Lavender. "How could you get the Board of Governors to reverse their decision?"
"Oh, that's simple," said Hermione. "My name is Hermione Jane Malfoy now."
All of them watched as Lavender fainted.
"See, Luna? I'm being nice."
Luna nodded, before turning back to her book and cuddling further into Hermione.
