Rewrite The World For You (Draco x Reader)

Chapter 3 (Troll)

The troll advanced towards them while waving its club at them, knocking over some sinks. Hermione instinctively backed away as far as she could from the troll and shrinks against the wall in fear.

Y/N on the other hand was ready to fight though, despite their height and size differences, the troll was fortunately stupid, and she pointed her wand at the troll.

She was about to cast a curse when Ron and Harry stepped in and fought the big oaf, as expected.

It was much scarier in real life than what Y/N anticipated. In the movie where they fought the troll humorously, they did the same thing only Y/N was there to experience the thrill of the danger in person, but she did not doubt their abilities to defeat it as she didn't fear for her life.

Eventually, the troll got knocked out cold on the ground by its club hitting its head.

"Is it– dead?" Hermione was the first to say.

"I hope so," Y/N replied.

"I don't think so," Harry said cautiously, "I think it's just been knocked out."

Y/N was already staring at the bathroom entrance, expecting the professors to enter any moment now which her thoughts were proven to be true as Professor McGonagall burst into the room, followed by Snape and then Quirrell.

McGonagall was understandably angry as she looked at the four first-years around the unconscious troll on the floor.

"What on earth were you thinking of?" McGonagall spoke with cold fury, "You're lucky you weren't killed. Why aren't you in your dormitory?"

"Please, Professor McGonagall, they were looking for Hermione." Y/N chimed in before Hermione could throw herself off the bus to cover for them.

She had always thought Hermione's small act of heroism was unnecessary when she could have come out with the truth. McGonagall would've understood, no one would blame her.

"Miss Granger?" McGonagall raised a brow.

"I was, here, with her the whole time." She spoke again, "We were most likely in here when the news broke out about the troll so we weren't aware of it," at least Hermione didn't, "let alone, have to return to our dormitories." Y/N argued calmly.

She had always known about the troll but she had simply forgotten about it while chatting with the crying girl.

"Is this true?" McGonagall looked sternly at the rest which they nodded vigorously.

"Well, consider yourself lucky, not many first years could have taken on a full-grown mountain troll. You each win 5 points. Professor Dumbledore will be informed of this. You may go."

With her permission, the four first-years hurriedly left the chamber and were too speechless to even speak. While the four of them walked together in silence and climbed up the stairs to their common rooms, Y/N was deep in thought the whole way there.

Something changed. Something had DEFINITELY changed from the original story because of Y/N.

Instead of Hermione losing Gryffindor 5 points like in the story, she gained 5 instead. All because of Y/N stepping in and explaining the situation to McGonagall.

Was it possible that Y/N's action could ultimately change the story? If so, then what would the outcome be, or better yet, the consequences? With such powers in her hands and knowledge of the story's plot, would it be wise to do anything differently?

Unfortunately, it was a bit too late for her to take anything back because after that day, with the bathroom incident, Hermione had become attached to Y/N as she no longer was interested in becoming fond of Harry and Ron.
