Sun streamed into her mother's kitchen as Hermione checked the ingredient list again then cast a doubtful glance at her boiling cauldron. Somehow, the bubbling potion didn't quite look the way she imagined it should. It was a rather sickly shade of green, not the bright pink described in the book.

Crookshanks rubbed against her leg and hissed at the boiling brew which had just started to emit a horribly foul odor.

"What in heaven's name did I do wrong?" Hermione moaned, grateful that Harry and Ron weren't here to see this mess.

They'd never let her live it down.
