Perhaps there's a situation where Hermione is being bullied by some students outside of Gryffindor because of her Muggle - born status, which is a form of abuse. The Slytherins, who have their own code of honor, decide to protect her. They start by intimidating the bullies with their Slytherin reputation. Then, they introduce Hermione to some ancient Slytherin magic that can protect her from such attacks in the future. This not only saves her from the abuse but also gives her new knowledge and a new group of friends among the Slytherins.
One plot idea could be that a group of Slytherins overhear some Gryffindors making cruel remarks about Hermione that border on abuse. Outraged, they step in and form a sort of protective alliance around her. They use their Slytherin cunning to outwit those who are being mean, for example, by tricking them into revealing their true nasty selves in front of the whole school. Another plot could involve a Slytherin who has secretly admired Hermione's intelligence for a long time. When he or she witnesses the abuse, they gather other like - minded Slytherins and start a campaign to change the perception of Hermione in the school. They might start by inviting her to study groups in the Slytherin common room, which is initially met with resistance but gradually changes the minds of many.
A possible plot is that the Slytherins notice Hermione being overworked by some of the teachers in a way that is almost abusive. They decide to secretly help her with her tasks. One Slytherin, who is really good at potions, helps her with her potion - making assignments that are piling up. Another group of Slytherins use their influence in the school hierarchy to make the teachers ease up on Hermione. In the process, Hermione discovers that Slytherins are not all bad as she once thought, and they form an unlikely friendship that eventually stops the abuse of over - expecting from her.
