Second year in Hogwarts: Hero's and Villain's The Caliginous Corridor
On the Hogwarts express Nicola meets Asia Youngblood, Scarlett Peters, Celestina Wood, Ocean Binns and Lily Potter. A few days after students arrive at Hogwarts, Nicola runs into her best friend Elenvia Lairamore, and the two are going to try and make a memory potion. What they tried last year, but it failed. Nicola spends more time with Elenvia. Nicola soon finds out that Elenvia starts going to a corridor and is starting to see images of her past. Nicola, not wanting her best friend getting hurt, tries to stop Elenvia, but then Elenvia strangles Nicola and now the two hate each other.

A few days after Elenvia strangles Nicola, it's the Hallowe'en feast. After a lot of thinking, Nicola decides not to tell the headmistress, first she has no idea on what Elenvia will do to her, and second Elenvia might get expelled and not get the proper education that she needs. At Hallowe'en Nicola wears a white polo and teal skirt with flowers, her hair is super messy. She finds Asia Youngblood, and Lavender Rose talking about Elenvia Lairamore, and Nicola decided to tell them about Elenvia. Both are in awe as someone like Nicola, to be with someone like Elenvia Lairamore.

A little after Christmas, Lavender Rose comes to Nicola's house to help Nicola find her "inner bravery". Nicola gets bullied a lot and all she can do is ignore the bullies, but Lavender wants to put a stop to this. They research many different spells and have a good time. Nicola changes in many ways and after she gets bullied a lot less.

After winter break, there is a Quidditch game, but suddenly Dementors come. Even though Nicola isn't mentioned in this part of the book, she is able to produce a corporeal patronus, but it wasn't the kingfisher bird that it was before. It was a mutt that is part Husky- part German shepherd, like the dog Nicola has at home. There was something that happened to her, which she would find out.

After Herbology class, Nicola finds out what happened to her parents. They got the cruciatus curse put on them. The person that put the curse on them remains unknown. Nicola is suspicious that this was the cause of her patronus change, so she goes to find Alice, because Nicola thinks Alice knows about patronus changes. So, they go to the library to find out more about the topic.

At the Hero's Banquet, Nicola wears a light blue dress. Nicola doesn't have a date, because she is just not a person people would want to go out with. Nicola notices everyone at the banquet exept Ocean Binns, a first year Ravenclaw. Nicola wants to make sure Ocean is okay, so she looks all over for Ocean. Then Nicola sees people with black robes, see runs to the castle but then drops to the ground, which happened because she drank gillywater with sleeping drought in it.
