Please don't mind my spelling for some of the spells. I had no knowledge of the exact way to spell them, so I tried as best as I could!

Meeting Hermione
(RON and HARRY are sitting in their private compartment on the Hogwarts Express. A large pile of sweets are between them. RON coughs, ready to do his spell on SCABBERS).
RON: (raises his wand) Sunshin - . . .
(However, he is interuppted by HERMIONE, who is already wearing her Hogwarts robes. She enters the doorway, scans around their compartment and sighs.)
HERMIONE: (bossy) Has anyone seen a toad? A boy named Neville's lost one.
RON: (shrugs, looking annoyed) No.
HERMIONE: (notices RON's wand) Oh, are you doing magic? Let's see then!
RON: (coughs again) Sunshine, daisies, butter mellow, turn this stupid, fat rat yellow!
(A spark hits SCABBERS, who has his head stuck in a sweet box. He squeaks and pulls his head out. RON looks over at HARRY and shrugs. HARRY shrugs back.)
HERMIONE: Are you sure that's a real spell? Well, it's not very good is it? (RON looks over at HARRY, giving him a "what's with her?" look.) Of course, I've only tried a few simple ones myself, but they've all worked for me. (pulls out her wand and makes herself comfortable in the seats opposite of the boys.) For example. (points the end of her wand right between HARRY'S eyes, who looks a little nervous.) Arculis Repairo! (The tape rolls off Harry's glasses, mending them instantly. RON, chewing away, looks over, a surprised look growing on his face. Harry takes off his glasses to examine them.) That's better, isn't it? (HARRY shares an amazed look with RON.) Holy Cricket! You're Harry Potter! (Harry puts his glasses back on.) I'm Hermione Granger. And you are? (looks over at RON, frowning.)
RON: (mouth full of sweets) I'm Ron Weasley.
HERMIONE: (disgusted; sarcastic) Pleasure. (Turns back to HARRY, although she informs both boys.) You two better change into your robes. (HARRY looks down at his shirt.) I'd expect we'd be arriving soon. (Stands up and leaves the doorway, but then comes back as though she remembers something.) You've got dirt on your nose by the way. Did you know? (points to her nose) Right there.
(Train whistle is heard. RON, sweets hanging from his mouth, reaches up to rub his nose, giving HERMIONE a dirty look. HERMIONE gives him a stern look and walks away, her hair flying behind her.)

Hermione Getting Sorted
PROFESSOR MCGONAGALL: When I call your name, you will come forth, and I shall place the Sorting Hat on your head." (Opens up scroll.) Hermione Granger!
(HERMIONE pauses, then walks up, mumbling to herself.)
HERMIONE: Oh no, ok....relax.
RON to HARRY: Mental that one, I tell you.
(HARRY nodds back in agreement. PROFESSOR MCGONAGALL places hat on Hermione.)
SORTING HAT: Aah, ripen. Mmmm, ripe. Okay....GRYFFINDOR!
(Gryffindor table cheers.)

Late for Class
(HARRY and RON are running in the halls. They open the doors to Transfiguration, late to class. MALFOY and HERMIONE turn their heads around. HERMIONE rolls her eyes; MALFOY grins. HARRY and RON walk up slowly.)
RON: Can you imagine on McGonagall's face if we were late?
(PROFESSOR MCGONAGALL, who was transfigured into a cat sitting on the table, transfigures herself back and approaches HARRY and RON. They stare at her, amazed.)
RON: That was bloody brilliant!
PROFESSOR MCGONAGALL: Thank you for that assessment, Mr. Weasley. Perhaps it would be more useful if I were to transfigure Mr. Potter and yourself into a pocketwatch? That way one of you might be on time.
HARRY: We got lost...
PROFESSOR MCGONAGALL: And perhaps a map? I trust you don't need one to find your seats.
(She walks back to her desk. HARRY and RON go to an empty table. They sit down without a word.)
A HUGE thank you to GryfndrHermi0ne who sent in this following scene.
Don't Go!
(HARRY is on his broomstick, ready to go after MALFOY to get NEVILLE's Remembrall back from him. HERMIONE steps up to HARRY.)
HERMIONE: Harry, no way! You heard what Madame Hooch said, besides, you don't even know how to fly!
(HARRY ignores HERMIONE, giving MALFOY an evil look, he flys up. The flying class stare up at him.)
HERMIONE: What an idiot!
Meeting Fluffy
(HARRY, RON and HERMIONE run to the third corridor door. HARRY reaches it first).
HARRY: (bangs on it and slams the handle down in frustration) It's locked!
RON: (turns around and looks back) That's it, we're done for!
HERMIONE: (pushes HARRY out of the way) Oh, move over! (whips out her wand and waves it over the handle) Alohomora! (door unlocks and pulls it open.) Get in!
(The trio scramble into the room.)
RON: (shuts the door behind him; in disbelief) Alohomora?
HERMIONE: (impatient) Standard Book of Spells, Chapter 7!
(Scene changes to FILCH and MRS NORRIS looking around the corridor. FILCH mumbles to himself and MRS NORRIS. They both look around.)
FILCH: Come on.
(FILCH and MRS NORRIS leave. Scene changes back to trio.)
HERMIONE: (leans against the door to listen, then pulls away) Filch is gone. (Walks away from the door, RON follows)
RON: (looks around) Probably thinks this door is locked.
HERMIONE: (know-it-all) It was locked.
HARRY: (frozen in shock, eyes wide) And for good reason . .
(Shows Fluffy, the three-headed dog, sleeping, but slowly each head rolls around, yawns, and he sits up. The trio stare wildly at Fluffy and begin to scream as he deeply growls. They turn around quickly, run out of the room and try to shut the door.)
RON: (straining) Push! Push!
(They successfully shut/lock the door and run back to the Gryffindor Common Room).
RON: (out of breath) What do they think they're doing? Keeping a thing like that locked up in a school!
HERMIONE: (breathing hard) You don't use your eyes do you? Didn't you see what it was standing on?
(They head up the stairs to the first year dorms)
RON: (in disbelief) I wasn't looking at it's feet! I was a bit pre-occupied with it's heads. Or maybe you didn't notice - there were three!
HERMIONE: (ignoring him) It was standing on a trapdoor, which means it wasn't there by accident. It's guarding something.
HARRY: (puzzled) Guarding something?
HERMIONE: (snaps) That's right. Now, if you two don't mind, I'm going to bed, before either of you come up with another clever idea to get us killed - or worse - expelled! (turns around hastily and goes up the steps to the girl's dorm and shuts the door in their faces)
RON: (shaking his head) She needs to sort out her priorities.
(Harry nods and they head to their dorm.)
Charms Class
(Professor FLITWICK is standing on his usual pile of books on his desk, the class watches as he talks.)
FLITWICK: . . . Levitation. Or the ability to make objects (waves his hands) fly. Do you have your feathers? (HERMIONE hold up hers proudly) Good. Now, uh, don't forget the nice wrist movements we've been practicing, hum? Just swish and flick. (moves his wand) Everyone? (everyone picks up their wands to imitate him)
EVERYONE: (waving wands) Swish and flick.
FLITWICK: And annonceate: "Wingardium Levisoa!" Off you go then.
(MALFOY, HARRY and SEAMUS try, but the feather doesn't budge).
RON: (raises his wand) Wingardium Leviosa! (procceds wand movements as if to beat the feather. HERMIONE hold out her hand to stop him.)
HERMIONE: No, stop, stop, stop. You're going to take someone's eye out. Besides, you're saying it wrong. It's lev-e-o-sa. Not lev-e-o-saw.
RON: (annoyed) You do it then, if you're so clever. Go on! Go On!
HERMIONE: (shoots him a dirty look and sits up straighter) Wingardium Leviosa! (waves her wand over the feather and it slowly floats upwards. The whole class is silent, watching)
FLITWICK: (happy) Oh, well done! See here everyone! Miss Granger's done it!
(RON sulks and puts his head on his books).
SEAMUS: (turns back to his feather) Win-gard Leviosa. Win-gard -
(An explosion, everyone turns to see SEAMUS, who is covered in ashes, his wand sizzling. FLITWICK teeters on his books and EVERYONE laughs).
HARRY: (not taking his eyes off of SEAMUS) I think we're going to need another feather over here, Professor. (looks up at FLITWICK)
A HUGE thank you to GryfndrHermi0ne who sent in this following scene.
Quidditch Match
RON: What's going on with Harry's broomstick?
(HERMIONE looks up at HARRY, clinging on for his life. She looks into her binoculars all around the stadium. She spots SNAPE.)
HERMIONE: It's Snape, he's jinxing Harry's broom!
RON: Jinxing the broom!? What do we do?
HERMIONE: Leave it to me!
(She runs off. The crowd watches HARRY in nervousness and terror.
RON: Come on, Hermione!
(Meanwhile, HERMIONE is running through the insides of the bleachers.)
HERMIONE: Lacardem Inflamari!
(It takes SNAPE a few seconds to realize he was on fire. HARRY tries to climb back onto his broomstick. He gets on, and goes after the Slytherin Seeker (MARCUS). They both hit each other while still on their broomsticks, fighting for the Snitch. HARRY fights off the Seeker and stands up on his broomstick to try and catch the Snitch. He accidentally falls off and swallows it.)
HAGRID: Looks like he's gonna be sick!
(Crowd watches intently. HARRY spits out the Snitch into his hand. The crowd cheers.)
LEE (JORDON): Harry Potter receives 150 points for the Snitch!
MADAME HOOCH: Gryffindor wins!
(Everyone cheers. The Slytherins look disappointed. HARRY holds up the Snitch.)
CROWD: Go Harry, Harry, go Harry, Harry!
Leaving for Christmas
(Hogwarts hallway. Many students and ghosts walk past. HERMIONE walks through them to the Great Hall, dragging her suitcase behind her, wearing her Gryffindor scarf and coat. Professor Flitwick is performing the Wingardium Leviosa charm to raise large Christmas ornaments to an even larger bushy, green tree. Beneath him is HARRY and RON, in deep concentration over a game of wizard's chess. RON picks up HARRY's pieces from the board as HERMIONE spots them and walks over.)
HARRY: (looking down on the board) Knight to E-5.
(The Knight moves silently on it's own. HERMIONE walks up and begins to watch their game.)
RON: (thinking hard, then grinning) Queen to E-5.
(The Queen moves, slides of her chair and smashes the Knight into two pieces. RON grins happily.)
HERMIONE: (angry) That's totally barbaric!
RON: (shrugs) That's wizard's chess. (notices her suitcase) I've seen you've packed.
HERMIONE: I see you haven't.
RON: (smugly) Change of plans. My parents decided to go to Romania to visit my brother Charlie. He's studying dragons there.
HERMIONE: (looks upset, but then gets over it)
Good, you can help Harry then. He's going to go look in the library for more information on Nicholas Flamel.
RON: We've looked a hundred times!
HERMIONE: (leans over, whispering) Not in the Restricted Section. (stands up again) Happy Christmas. (walks away, dragging her suitcase)
RON: (watching her go) I think we got a bad influence on her.
Finding Flamel
(RON and HARRY sitting at a desk in the library. HERMIONE enters, carrying a huge book.)
HERMIONE: I had you looking in the wrong section. How could I be so stupid? (slams the book on the table and HARRY jumps.) I checked this out weeks ago for a bit of light reading. (sits down and begins to flip through the book.)
RON: This is light?
(HERMIONE gives him an evil look and continues to flip through the book.)
HERMIONE: (stops and puts her finger on the page) Of course! Here it is. Nicholas Flamel is the only know maker of the Philosopher's stone.
HARRY and RON: (bewildered) The what?
HERMIONE: (impatient) Honestly, don't you two read? (starts to read from the book in a low whisper) The Philosopher's stone is a legendary substance with astonishing powers. It can turn any metal into pure gold and produces the Elixer of Life which will make the drinker immortal.
RON: Immortal?
HERMIONE: It means you'll never die.
RON: (angry, loudly) I know what it means!
(HARRY shushs him).
HERMIONE: (continues from the book) The only stone currently in existence belongs to Mr. Nicholas Flamel, a noted alchemist, who last year celebrated his 665th birthday.
(RON and HARRY share an amazed look)
HERMIONE: (leans over) That's what Fluffy's guarding on the third floor. That's what's under the trap door. The Philosopher's stone.
Attacking Neville
(Nightime, castle is shown, dark and dreary. The trip is walking down the stairs to the Gryffindor Common Room, ready to go to the Forbidden Corridor. They look around to see if anyone is there and HARRY spots TREVOR, who is comfortable on the back of an armchair, croaking.)
HARRY: Trevor.
RON: Trevor, shh, go! You shouldn't be here!
(Neville appears, sitting in the armchair, startling the trio)
NEVILLE: Neither should you. (stands up and stands between them and the door) You're sneaking out again, aren't you?
HARRY: (trys to calm him) Now, Neville, listen. We were . .
NEVILLE: (intrupts) NO! I won't let you. You'll get Gryffindor into trouble again. I . . I . . I'll fight you! (raises his fists)
HERMIONE: (pulls out her wand) Neville, I'm really really sorry about this. (raises it) Petrificus Totalus!!
(Neville freezes, stiff as a board. He falls flat on his back with a loud thump. HERMIONE pockets her wand and RON gulps.)
RON: (nervously) You're a bit scary sometimes, you know that. Brilliant, but scary.
HARRY: (brushes it away) Let's go. (passes Neville on the floor) Sorry.
HERMIONE: (following HARRY) Sorry.
RON: (stops) It's for your own good you know.
Flying Keys
HERMIONE: (turns around) What is that?
HARRY: (looks over) I don't know. (looks back at HERMIONE and RON) It sounds like wings.
(Rattling and door opens. The trio enters, looking upwards. Fluttering of wings is heard. Skinny little creatures with light, white wings are flying overheard. They start to walk to the other side of the room to the door.)
HERMIONE: Curious. I've never seen birds like these.
HARRY: (in awe) They're not birds - they're keys. And I bet one of them fits that door.
(They stop in front of a broom, suspended in midair, a spotlight on it.)
HERMIONE: What's this all about?
HARRY: (shakes his head, whispers) I don't know.
(RON pulls out his wand and walks to the door. HERMIONE gives HARRY a funny look and follows RON.)
HARRY: (waves his hand over the broom) Strange.
RON: (rattles the door) Alohamora! (HARRY looks over at him; turns around and shrugs) Well, it's worth a try.
HERMIONE: (groans loudly, looking upward) What are we going to do? There must be a thousand keys up there!
RON: We're looking for a big old-fashioned one. Probably rusty like the handle. (HARRY looks up)
HARRY: (points) There, I see it! The one with the broken wing.
(Keys are shown flying around, the most obvious is the one with the bent wing, flying around in circles. HARRY looks back down at the broom again).
HERMIONE: What's wrong, Harry?
HARRY: (uncertain; looks down at the broom and back at HERMIONE) It's too simple.
RON: Oh go on, Harry. If Snape can catch on that old broomstick, you can. You're the youngest seeker in a century!
(HARRY nods and reaches down for the broom, ever so slowly. The moment he touches it, the fluttering of the keys gets faster. HARRY looks up and sees all the keys coming at him. They start to crowd around him and he gets onto the broom, swinging at the keys with his hands).
RON: (looking nervous) This complicates things a bit. (HERMIONE agrees, watching)
(HARRY slowly flys into the air, still swinging at the keys around him. He looks up, sees the bent one, holds onto the broom with two hands and flys upwards to it. He looks back at RON and HERMIONE and reaches out his hand to grasp it. It flys in a crazy pattern around the room and HARRY follows. Somehow, he gets it.)
HARRY: (shouting) Catch the key! (He throws it downwards and HERMIONE jumps up and catches it before it flys away. She rushes to the door and scrambles to unlock it.)
RON: (panicked; looks back at HARRY) Hurry up!
(HERMIONE looks back at HARRY and quickly tries to stuff the key into the door. HARRY flys around, trying to avoid the keys. HERMIONE manages to unlock the door and RON pulls it open. They quickly scramble in and hold it open for HARRY. HARRY speeds through the doorway on the broom and RON and HERMIONE slam it shut. The keys all run into the door.)
Chess Game
(HERMIONE, RON and HARRY are standing on the dark and dirty chess board, fire smoking up in some spots. Their opponent, white Queen, turns and seems to look over at RON, who is positioned on his Knight horse. RON looks around and HARRY does the same.)
HARRY: (realizes what's going to happen) Wait a minute!
RON: You'll understand why Harry. Once I make my move, the Queen will take me. Then you're free (looks upwards) to check the King.
HARRY: (panic) No, Ron, NO!
HERMIONE: (worried) What is it?
HARRY: He's going to sacrifice himself!
HERMIONE: (scared) No, you can't! There must be another way!
RON: (turns back to look at HERMIONE) Do you want to stop Snape from getting that stone or not? (HERMIONE bites her lip and stays quiet. RON turns to HARRY) Harry, it's you that has to go on. Not me, not Hermione, you!
(HARRY nods slowly. RON takes a deep breath and grabs the horse reigns.)
RON: Knight to H3 (closes his eyes as his Knight moves into the Queen's path. Looks up at the face of the Queen.) Check.
(Camera pans to the trio's scared faces as the Queen advances towards RON. RON's eyes grow big as he watches it come closer and closer. A pause, and then the Queen takes out her sword and stabs the knight in one quick motion. RON falls off the back of the Knight and lands heavily on his side, chunks of rocks landing beside him. The Knight also falls into a cloud of fire.)
HARRY: Ron!
(HERMIONE takes a step towards RON, but HARRY stops her.)
HARRY: (points at her) No, don't move! Don't forget, we're still playing!
(HERMIONE backs up on her square. HARRY walks diagonally towards the King. HERMIONE looks over nervously and HARRY looks up at the King.)
HARRY: Checkmate!
(The King's sword falls loudly in front of HARRY, to symbolize his win. HARRY looks up at the King's face and rushes to RON's side. HERMIONE does the same and they reach RON at the same time.)
HARRY: (checks his friend and looks up at HERMIONE) Take care of Ron. Then go to the Owlery, send a message to Dumbledore. Ron's right. (looks at him) I have to go alone. (looks to see what's ahead)
HERMIONE: (looks straight into HARRY's eyes) You'll be okay, Harry. You're a great wizard. You really are.
HARRY: Not as good as you.
HERMIONE: (smiles) Me? Books and cleverness. There are more important things. Friendship and bravery. And Harry, just be careful.
(HARRY nods and takes one last look at RON before standing up and heading off. HERMIONE looks sadly after him).
Never Better Scene
(HARRY walks up to staircase where you can hear HERMIONE and RON in deep conversation. HARRY looks up at them and HERMIONE and RON quickly look down, notice him and grin happily).
HARRY: All right there, Ron?
RON: (surprised) All right? You?
HARRY: (shrugs) All right. Hermione?
HERMIONE: (grins shyly) Never better!
(Harry grins widely).
