3 Person's POV

Y/n woke up with Fresh smell of cookies. Her night was sleepless yet she felt fresh because of the chocolate smell all over the room. The dorm was empty only two beds were used. Y/n got up and went to bathroom to get ready. In there she saw Hermione combing her hair.

"Happy Christmas Hermione" Y/n smiled

"Happy Christmas Y/n!!!" Hermione said hugging Y/n. she hugged back.

"Get ready, we'll go down stairs together..okay??" Hermione told her and Y/n nodded.

After getting ready, Y/n went downstairs with Hermione to find the Common Room filled with presents. Harry and Ron were there. The girls greeted them, they greeted them back, forgetting about what was happening within the school.

They were opening their presents with short talks between. Just like last year, Y/n got alot of presents from the families who were familiar to her. Most of them were chocolates and cookies so Y/n didn't bother to open them. She directly took the presents that were in the corner.

First gift was from Eric. Unlike last time when he gave her a book, This time the present was very thin, like it was a greeting card. Y/n crossed her eyebrows. She was a little disappointed that Eric gave her a card while she gave him a long winter coat.

She opened the gift to find a card and a letter. She opened the letter and started reading it in her mind.

"Dear Y/n,

Merry Christmas Honey!!!

Since you know that you've done something far from my expectations. You deserve a great gift this time. I know that you are thinking that I gave you a card. You're not totally wrong, But the card is something I think you should treasure.

I went to Japan for work few weeks ago when your term started and the card I gave you is Lifetime Subscription of a Bookstore in Kyoto. They have all sorts of Books and Mangas in their shop. Whenever you feel like you want a Book or Manga to read, Use that card and write the name of the Book/Manga you want to get with a removeable ink or pencil. Tap your wand in the card and in few hours, you'll get your belongings.

I hope you like this present. And I'm looking forward to your presents since you've been in and out of my closet alot this summer. But Don't Worry, I'll love whatever you'll give me. Because Honey, I got to admit. You got a great taste.

P.S - Don't Worry about paying for the books. You don't have to. Its free for you.

Love, Eric"

When Y/n finished Eric's letter. She was stunned. This was not what she was expecting. She took the card from the back of the letter. It was a simple card with embroidery on the edges. It was blank in between with the Shop's name of top.

"パラダイス {Paradise} ????" Y/n muttered the shop's name to herself.

Y/n packed the card back and started opening other presents. While opening the gifts a strange thing happened. The book Y/n gave to Hermione was the same book Hermione gave her.

"Hermione this---" "Y/n this----" Both Hermione and Y/n said together and then saw that they were opening each other's gifts. Both girls shared a look and burst into laughter.

"What?" Harry asked the girls but none of them replied

"Why are two laughing???wait, Y/n...you gave me a box of Chocolate Frogs???" Ron asked and Y/n nodded "That's what I gave you" Ron said

"WHAT????" Y/n said loudly "Same thing happened with Hermione"

"What are you talking about?" Ron asked her

"The Book I gifted to Hermione is the same book she gifted to me!!" Y/n said with a huff

"So same thing happened with me?" Ron said

"Same thing happened with me too" Harry's voice came from other side of the room. "I gifted you a ink-feather set....you got me that too" Harry said smiling and Y/n facepalmed herself.

"How can this happen???!!!!!" Y/n said frustratingly.

"Maybe Because we all were thinking the same thing...and don't feel bad, you're not the only one... I am Similar to your situation." Hermione said shyly.

"What do you mean?" asked her friends

"I got presents not exactly same but....something familiar." Hermione told and just when she saw about to continue they heard someone come downstairs.

"Seriously, Why are you all making such noises the first thing the morning?" Fred asked the second years and George nodded

"Morning??? Now?" Y/n raised her eyebrows at them

"Okay!!! But what's with you all yelling while opening your presents??? You can do it quietly you know" George told them while sitting on the couch with Fred. and then Y/n noticed something

"Hey guys..Where is Jake?? Still sleeping?" Y/n asked them

"He didn't tell you?" Fred asked her

"Tell me what?"

"He must have forgot to tell you" George said

"Tell me what??!!" Y/n asked anxiously but the twins decided to tease her a little

"We won't tell you.. " Fred said smirking

"Why not?" Y/n asked getting a little angry

"Because He'll kill us when he will get back" George told her

"And I will kill you right here if you won't tell me" Y/n glared at them and the twins visibly gulped

"He's at Hospital Wing.." George told her giving up the act

"He got a little fever last night..so he must be there" Fred told Y/n. she smiled and walked towards them with two presents in her hands.

"Thanks you two....I'll see you at breakfast!!" She told them and left the Common Room.

She was worried for Jake. 'Fever' was a common word many won't think or be worried about. But that wasn't the case for Jake. Last time when he got sick during summer. He was like a over-heated potato -Y/n's words-.

She entered the Hospital wing. Madam Pomfrey was not there, so she entered without permission. While walking in there, She saw the petrified bodies. She gulped and walked towards Jake. His bed's curtain was close. Y/n went towards his bed and slashed opened the curtain making Jake spit the soup he was eating.

"Y/N!!!?? What in the bloody hell are you doing?? I thought it was the Heir of Slytherin!!!" Jake coughed

"Heir of Slytherin??? You said he won't attack either of us" Y/n said while sitting on Jake's Bed.

"Yes, But...It won't hurt to be caution" Jake said continued to eat the soup.

"Are you okay?" Y/n asked him worriedly

" I am now, but..I might have to stay tonight too..Madam Pomfrey is quite strict currently." Jake told her

"Of course she would be... Too bad you got sick on Christmas..You gave her extra work during holidays" Y/n shrugged

"Hey! Don't me feel more guilty then I'm already am!" Jake playfully scolded her.

For an hour. Jake and Y/n talked. Jake was jealous of the present Eric gave her. But he said it will be fine because he'll use Y/n's card anyway. After that Madam Pomfrey came and made Y/n go and get breakfast. Y/n followed her orders and went their.

The rest of the day went smoothly.  Before they knew, it was time for the Christmas Feast. Y/n, Harry and Ron were eating while Hermione was off somewhere. After few minutes, she arrived and sat beside Y/n.

"Everything's set. We just need a little bit of who you're changing into" Hermione told her friends

"Crabbe and Goyle" Harry replied and everyone nodded.

"We also make to need sure that the real Crabbe and Goyle can't burst into us while we're interrogating Malfoy" Hermione told them

"How?" Ron asked

"We've got it all worked out" Hermione smirked looking at Y/n

"We filled these with a simple Sleeping Draught. Simple, but powerful" Y/n said when Hermione placed two cupcakes on the table

"Now, Once they're asleep....hide them in the broomstick cupboard and pull out a few of their hairs..and put on their uniforms" Hermione instructed them. Harry and Ron looked at each other with disgust.

"Whose hair you two are ripping out, then?" Ron asked

"I've already got mine. Milicent Bulstorde. Slytherin. I got this off her robes. She has a habit of eating slowly. just enough time for us" Hermione said showing a glass tube with a hair in it.

"What about you?" Harry asked Y/n

"I haven't got mine yet" Y/n told them and her friends were clearly shocked

"Why haven't you got it yet?" Hermione asked in slight scolding tone

"I was with Jake, I kind of forgot" Y/n explained

"Who's hair are you getting then?" Ron asked

"Pansy Parkinson" Y/n shrugged

"that pug-face?" Ron asked and Hermione scolded him with 'Ron!!'

"Yes, her...apart from her there's no other girl who Malfoy won't find suspicious if she's around him.. she sticks to him all the time." Y/n shrugged

"That is right!!!" Ron agreed

"But how are you going to get her hair out??" Hermione asked her taking a bite off her chicken.

"Watch me" Y/n said and walked away. Harry, Ron and Hermione watched her.

First Y/n went to Hufflepuff's table and walked looking at the food on the table. She talked something with group of older students. They shook their heads at her and she smiled and left their side and did the same with Ravenclaw table. She asked them something, the Ravenclaws shook their and Y/n nodded at them and made her way towards Slytherin Table.

"What is she doing???" Harry asked

"I don't know...but looks like she's got a plan" Hermione replied looking at Harry

"Oh, Look....She's there!" Ron alerted them

They saw Y/n asking The Slytherins something. Surprisingly, No one was offended by her. They genuinely replied her question. Draco was looking at her curiously But Pansy was the only one who was glaring at Y/n. Pansy said something to Y/n with a Dirty look. Y/n looked down at her and replied her something with a straight face. Pansy's jaw dropped and Draco's group and other Slytherin were smiling. Y/n reached out and pull out Pansy's hair directly. Pansy groaned in pain while her fellow Slytherin mates were laughing loudly.

Y/n made her way to her friends who were looking at her with shock-Impress look. Y/n sat beside Hermione and showed them Pansy's hair she got.

"Here it is" Y/n said and stared eating

"What were you doing?" Hermione asked by her voice was cut-off by Ron

"You pulled out her hair like that!!!!!" Ron laughed with Harry.

"If you were going to directly pull out Parkinson's hair..why bother going at other houses table?" Hermione aske when the boys stopped laughing

"It was part of the plan, I went both of there table's in search of Chocolate Short-cake. They didn't have that so I walked towards Slytherin table asking for it too. I asked them if they had it on their table Because it isn't in ours. they denied. Parkinson was talking something like 'I shouldn't bother them' or anything like that.. So I pulled out her hair in return" Y/n said casually. Her friends started at her

"You're brilliant" Harry, Ron and Hermione said in unison. Y/n smiled at them.

"Thank you.. But Hermione if you're done. we should go and check on the potion." Y/n whispered so no one else hears them. Hermione nodded and both of the girls left in few minutes. while they were almost out of the great hall, they heard something.

"Hey Kim!!!!!"

Hermione and Y/n turned to see who it was. They were shocked to see Draco coming towards them

"Hermione, keep walking...I'll catch up with you" Y/n muttered and Hermione understood why she did that, So she left Y/n alone.

"Do you need help with something, Malfoy?" Y/n raised her eyebrow when Draco approached her.

"No really, but.....did you like the present?" Malfoy asked

"Present??? what present?" Y/n questioned back

"You didn't see it--- forget it" Draco started walking away. But Y/n stopped him.

"I was with my brother...he's got fever so...I didn't open any of the gifts yet..I'm sorry if you were expecting something" Y/n told him and walked away without another word.

Malfoy's footsteps faded behind Y/n. But then a  high-pitch voice came behind her.

"Wait there Kim!!!!"  Y/n turned to see Pansy approaching her.

"What do you want Parkinson?" Y/n  asked in bored tone

"What did Draco say to you??" Pansy asked her with a dirty yet anxious face. Y/n was about to say that it wasn't any of her business, but stopped.

"He told something...He wants to meet me" Y/n smirked

"WHAT!!!??? WHY!!??" Pansy shrieked

"I don't know...he said it was something important.. Malfoy said he'll tell me later tonight" Y/n shrugged

"What does he want to say to her?" Pansy muttered and Y/n knew her plan is working.

"I don't have time to go....you can go there instead of me" Y/n said and she saw Pansy's eye light up

"What?" Parkinson asked her

"Yes you can go there...He's waiting at Astronomy Tower..he's going to wait there until I come...Even if he's late for some reason he said he'll come no matter what happens....and I think he said to go there about in 1-2 minutes..you should hurry if you want to go" Y/n said and left Pansy alone

"Because if you won't go..then I'll make sure to go instead..You know, Who would want to miss this opportunity ??" Y/n said and left the corridor and then heard footsteps running somewhere. Y/n smirked and continued walking.

When she reached the girl's rest room. She knocked twice and waited. In few seconds, Hermione opened the door.

"What did Malfoy say?" Hermione asked worriedly when Y/n entered.

"Nothing, in particular....The Potion's ready right?" Y/n asked and Hermione nodded.

Both girls sat in silence waiting for the boys. Hermione was stirring the potion once in a while.

"Hermione" Y/n said and Hermione looked at her

"I....told Jake...what we're about to do" Y/n looked down at her hands, waiting for Hermione to scold her. But surprisingly she didn't.

"I figured that...Its fine..but what did he say?" Hermione asked Y/n, who was surprised.

"Oh...um...He first disagreed but in the end he said its fine.. He told me to be caution... So we don't get caught" Y/n replied

"He's a nice brother...judging how mad he was last year when we went to trap door.. He's quite supporting this time" Hermione said stirring the potion

"that's because.. I told him this time.... he did told me to tell him if we were up to something" Y/n shrugged. "He told me a spell that.... will the change the house logo of our uniform temporarily.. I hope it works" Hermione was in awe that Jake was supporting Y/n in this troublesome act. She was about to say something but then the boys arrived in Slytherin robes and hairs in their hand.

"You got their hairs!!!" The girls signed in relief

"Of course we did...do you seriously think we can't fool anyone??" Ron said smugly

"I think you were able to do it because Crabbe and Goyle are too thick" Y/n replied playfully making Ron shove her aside lightly.

"So..is the potion ready??" Harry asked the girls

"Yes.....it is" Hermione replied.

After few minutes, Hermione now was pouring the thick potion in four glass cups. It looked mudded coloured, not very appetizing.

"Hermione...Are you sure the potion supposed to be like this??" Y/n said eyeing the potion

"I did what the book said....so maybe" Hermione replied to her and Y/n shrugged

"We'll have exactly one hour before we change back into ourselves" Hermione said passing the glasses to the other three. "add the hairs" Hermione instructed and all four of them added the hairs in their hands. A loud hiss came from the four glasses and the hair disappeared.

"Essence of Crabbe" Ron said with disgust face.

"Cheers" Hermione said and all four of them clinked their glass and drank the potion in a big gulp.

It didn't just looked awful, it tasted worst then it. The potion tasted like overcooked cabbage. it could be seen how bad it tasted by the faces of the four Gryffindors drinking it.

"I think I'm going to be sick" Ron said and slammed the glass on the basin and ran to a cubicle.

"Me too" Hermione said running to the cubicle as well.

Harry and Y/n stayed and drank another sib of the potion. They regretted doing it right away. Y/n ran to other side of the basin so Harry couldn't see her transform. The feeling was bad. A burning sensation in Y/n's stomach spread faster every second to all over her body. She had a sick feeling that made her gasp for air. Her skin was being bubble up like hot wax. She looked at her reflection. Her Deep brown hair and eyes were turning pitch black. Her hair shrunk shorter and greasier. Her face burned like she was in an oven. She saw herself turning into Pansy Parkinson in few seconds. Y/n gasped when the painful sensation ended and sat in all-fours gasping for air. She heard the cubicle door open.

"Harry?" She heard Ron's voice from the other side

"Ron" Harry voice came

"Bloody hell" Ron snorted

"We still sound like ourselves. You need to sound more like Crabbe." Harry told Ron

"Bloody hell" This time Crabbe's voice came.

"Excellent" Harry said

"But where's Hermione and Y/n?" Ron asked

"I'm here" Y/n stood up and walked towards them. Harry and Ron in Goyle and Crabbe's body looked surprised.

"This feels really bad...Now I know that I love my own body" Y/n said to them and Hermione voice came

"I..... I don't think I'm going.. you go on without me" Hermione voice came

"Hermione... are you okay?" Harry asked

"Just go..You're wasting time. if anything goes wrong, Y/n can handle it" Hermione said from the cubicle.

"Come on" Y/n said dragging the boys with her.

The three of them managed to find the correct way where Slytherin's usually go, But they couldn't find where the Common Room was.

"I think the Slytherin Common room's this way" Harry pointed and they walked a few steps until

"Excuse me" They turned to see Percy walking towards them.

"What are you doing do-" Ron said in his usual voice. Harry elbowed him and Ron cleared his voice and continued in Crabbe's voice "I mean, what are you doing down here?"

Percy gave Ron a unappreciated look and replied "I happen to be a school prefect...you on the other hand, have no business wandering the corridors at night" Percy stated and Harry, Ron and Y/n just nodded in reply.

"What are your names again?" Percy raised his eye brows

"Pansy Parkinson" Y/n replied but Harry and Ron started stammering. They were soon saved by a voice behind.

"Crabbe, Goyle, where have you two been??? pigging out in the Great Hall this time?... and with...Parkinson???? What are you doing here?" Draco asked Y/n in Pansy's voice

"I was finding you...I couldn't so I followed them knowing they will know where you going to be" Y/n replied in Pansy's irritating voice. Draco made a disgusted face and then noticed something odd.

"Why are you wearing glasses???" Draco asked Harry in Goyle's body

"Oh..um...Reading" Harry replied putting his glasses in pockets

"Reading?????? I didn't know you could read" Draco said and made his iconic face

'I swear I was here to see that face' Y/n thought while smiling shamelessly at Draco.

Draco soon noticed Percy standing with them. "And what are you doing down here, Weasley???" Draco asked him in not-so-polite way

"Mind your attitude, Malfoy" Percy said but Draco left him with the other three following him. They walked a few steps away until Y/n swore she heard Percy saying 'Is Y/n sleeping now..I hope I could wish her'

Y/n turned to look at him with Shock. 'What in the world is he thinking?? He has a girlfriend!!!' Y//n thought and continued walking

After crossing few corridors, Draco begun bickering "What do you think that Peter Weasley--"

"Percy" Ron corrected him almost right away.

"Yeah, whatever" Draco said and they reached the gate of Slytherin Common Room.

"What's the new password again?" Draco asked roughly making Harry and Ron started muttering something

"Pureblood" Y/n replied and the door swung open. Harry and Ron looked at  Y/n with surprised face. she just shrugged and followed Draco inside. She saw him plop on couch so she followed him and sat really close to him.

'Might as well enjoy' Y/n thought sliding close to Draco. He moved away farther from her with disgust and looked at Harry and Ron who were just standing

"Well, sit down" Draco told the boys the obvious.

"You'd never know the Weasleys were pure-blood, the way they behave...They're an embarrassment to the wizarding world. All of them" Draco snickered and Ron gripped his hand tighter trying to control himself from punching Draco

"what's wrong with you, Crabbe??" Draco asked. Harry elbowed Ron and he glanced at Y/n for help. She sneaked to point at her stomach telling Ron to say something about Stomach

"Stomachache" Ron replied using Crabbe's voice. Draco made a weird face but approved the lie.

"You know, I'm surprised the Daily Prophet hasn't done a report on these attacks. I suppose Dumbledore is trying to hush it all up. Father always said Dumbledore was the worst thing that ever happened at this place" Draco bickered

"You're wrong!!!" Harry yelled aggressively. even Y/n flinched at his tone. Draco looked at him with slight anger. Harry and Ron panicked in their transformed body.

Draco dramatically stood up from the couch and asked "What????You think there's someone here who's worse than Dumbledore??" Harry looked down while Ron shook his head while panicking "Well, do you?" Draco asked Harry again. Harry looked at Y/n for help but noticed that she was concentrated on observing the Slytherin Common Room. Harry decided to let her be and answered the first name that came in his mind.

"Harry Potter?" Harry asked eagerly and Draco first started at him then smirked approvingly

"Good one, Goyle... You're absolutely right!!! Saint Potter!!! I wonder what made Kim be friends with him" Draco spat

"What?" Y/n suddenly replied when she heard her name. She was so immersed in observing the room that she forgot why she was here.

"Yes, that's right... The girl you hate... " Draco said smirking at Y/n like her mention would make Pansy Parkinson explode in anger "Her family and herself is more superior than anyone else here.. Its a real pity she wasn't sorted into Slytherin. I wonder why she chose friends like Potter.. and people here actually think that he's the Heir of Slytherin and that Kim is helping him... I mean.. why would she help anyone when The Kim's complete background is already clean" Draco said looking at Harry and Ron alternatively.

"But then you must have some idea who's behind it all" Harry asked with full concentration

"You know I don't Goyle, I told you yesterday. How many times do I have to tell you?" Draco replied asking while leaning and grabbing a gift from the table.

"Probably until its passed completely through his thick brain" Y/n said savagely trying to sound like Parkinson. Draco thought that he would've laughed if Y/n had said those but he didn't laugh  since he thought it was Parkinson. But he was unaware that it was Y/n who said that.

"Is this yours?" Draco asked Harry in Goyle's body ignoring the existence of Y/n in Pansy's body. Harry shook his head and Draco sneaked the small present in his robe's pocket.

"But my father did say this.. Its been 50 years since the Chamber was opened. He wouldn't tell me who opened it. Only that they were expelled. The last time the Chamber of Secrets was opened, A Mudblood died.. So its only a matter of time before one of them is killed this time" Draco told the other three imposters.

"As for me....I hope its Granger" Draco said and Ron stood up almost right away and Harry stopped him. "What's the matter with you two???You're acting..very... odd" Draco said crossing his eyebrows

"Its his.....Stomachache" Harry replied and turned to Ron telling him to calm down until they noticed that they changing back. Y/n felt the sickening feeling again and turned to see that Harry's scar and Ron's hair was transforming back. Both boys ran to the exit. Y/n wanted to run too but she couldn't move.

"Hey!!! Where are you going????!!!" Draco asked in a loud voice and Y/n gagged when she felt Polyjuice Potion's taste again in her mouth.

"I'll go......ask them!!!" Y/n managed to say and ran with full speed.  When she came out of the gate she saw Harry and Ron waiting for her. She grabbed both of their arms and pulled them with her

"Let's go!!!! we don't have much time!!!" Y/n said and three of them ran. In few seconds all three of them were transformed in their own body. She started to run a little slower until they heard.

"YOU GOOD-FOR-NOTHING KIM!!!!!!"

They turned to see Pansy Parkinson approaching them with a red face. Y/n quickly pulled out her wand and tapped at all three of the logo of the Slytherin house of the robes they were wearing while muttering something. Ron noticed that the snake tuned into lion. He stared at Y/n with impressed face.

"YOU!!!! you said that Draco would go to the tower!!! he didn't!!!!! and top of that!! I lost points when a Ravenclaw prefect caught me!!!! They won't believe me that this was all because of you!!!!" Pansy shrieked at Y/n

"Because of me??" Y/n made a fake offended face "Who said you could trust me?? For all Know, You hate me, don't you?" Y/n said raising her eyebrow. When she saw that Parkinson was speechless, She grabbed Harry and Ron with her and continued running.

They soon reached the bathroom. Y/n checked if there was someone out before getting in.

"That was close!!!" Ron said smiling while they walked towards the Bathroom stall Hermione was in.

"Hermione come out. We've got loads to tell you!!" Harry said eagerly

"Go away!!!" Hermione's voice came and suddenly Myrtle came flying towards them.

"Wait till you see.. its awful" Myrtle said mischievously. Harry, Y/n and Ron looked at eachother.

"Hermione???? Are you okay?" Y/n asked while opening the stall door.

"Do you remember me telling you" Hermione voice came in light tone. Y/n noticed Harry squinting his to see inside. She elbowed him and whispered 'Your glasses' and continued to listen to Hermione while Harry wore his glasses back.

"that the Polyjuice Potion was only for human transformations?? It was cat hair I plucked off Millicent Bulstrode's robes" Hermione said turning to face her friends. Instead of a normal face. Hermione's face was covered in Fluffy cat hair. "Look at my face" Hermione said with a sad tone and Myrtle started laughing.

"Look at you tail" Ron chuckled being unable to control his smile.

'I feel bad for not warning Hermione. I could've stopped it but....this was necessary.... I'm sorry Hermione' Y/n thought while guiltily smiling at Hermione.
