Accused, captured and deceived.

4:00 am on a wednesday morning.

I wake up to a scream. Ponder the thought of weather I should go and investigate or not and I quickly decide and end up running outside of the dorms. Straight out of the Gryffindor common room. To see a body lying on the ground. One of my friends...

"Hermione!" I hear somebody call. I turn around and look at who called me.

"Hermione, what happened?"

I stand frozen, Shocked, stunned. I shake my head slowly, trying to force myself not to cry, but it doesn't work. "I...I don't know.." I cry softly. Mcgonagall calls After a while Luna joins us. She asks Luna if she saw anything... Anything at all. Then she turns to me

"Hermione! Tell me what happened at once! You were the first one to get here! Hermione..."

"I, don't know... I didn't see anything... I just got here and... I saw this..."

"well I'm afraid we really have no evidence... , you must come with me.."

I stare at her shocked at the fact she even brought up the fact." You can't possibly believe I did this!"

"Hermione?" Luna calls softly. Looking over at me with sad teary eyes. "Did you really."

"I...I.. Don't understand... Luna, I know you liked him and... Y...you can't believe I did this do you?"I ask, almost crying myself.

"Come along Hermione." Mcgonagall tells me. "It seems that we will have a lot to discuss.

I nod sadly and follow her. "Where are you taking me?" I ask.

"To professor Snape."

I want to question her but I keep quiet. We walk down the large winding staircase to the dungeons. Soon afterwards I'm sitting in Snapes office nervously twirling my hair.

"Hand me your wand ." Snape tells me. I wish I could refuse, but he glares at me so I reluctantly hand it over.

I do so, he checks it over with a few spells. "I see you have been lying to us..."

I scowl. "huh? What... Do you mean?" I question.

"According to the tests, it was your wand that killed Mr. Longbotton and we have no other evidence on who might've killed him."

"But! I didn't do it!" I yell. "How could you blame me for all of this!" I finish outraged. "I've never done anything like this, it even close for that matter and now you blame me for the death of my friend!"

"we have no other choice, I'm sorry. "

I turn to Mcgonagall, who shakes her head. "Go pack your things,I will be waiting for you."

I stand stunned. "I can't believe this.." I whisper softly.

I see my friends waiting for me in the distance.

"Harry?" I try to smile.

"Hermione... What happened?"

"I'm think I'm leaving Hogwarts."

"Why!" Harry asks

"It was my wand who killed him. Since there is no other evidence... I guess it was me, I...I'm so sorry, I don't know what happened,..."

"Hermione..." Harry pulls me into a hug. I cry. "I can't leave... What if somebody wanted this. Frame me, they know I'd be expelled and it would be easier to kill me... What if they want to kill me. If it's just one I'm sure I could fight them, but if it's three or four, I don't know if I could do It."

"Then you have to stay here."

"I can't Harry, I was told to pack my things." I throw my arms around him. "Goodbye Harry, Hopefully this problem will be resloved soon and I'll be able to come back"

I leave my friends and walk up to my room. Slowly pack all my belongings When I come out and walk into the common room almost all the gryffindor students are staring at me.

Mcgonagall waits outside for me and I walk alongside her. She leads me to her office.

"Are you sending me home?" I ask.

She shakes her head. "of course not."

I stare at her confused. "Whoever did this Might be targeting you, you will stay here with me in my office until we find a secure location to move you too You have your books and will start on independent studies here until then, Understand?"

"Yes" I nod.

"Good, I will have somebody bring you breakfast." he replies. "until then, you may sit on the couch, or at the desk if you want to read or do schoolwork. There is a bookshelf over there if you would like something new. There is a restroom located just down there, I have some business to attend to, later I shall show you to your living quarters."

After she leaves I take a seat on the couch. What an eventful morning. First I wake up to a scream and next, I find one of my friends lying on the floor dead and now somehow I'm being accused for doing it.

I hear a knock on the door. I slowly go over to open it. "Hermione!" Harry smiles. "McGonagall, told me where you were. She said I could stop by and talk to you for a few minutes."

"Hey.." I reply sadly. "where's... Ron"

Harry doesn't speak a word to me. "Harry, What happened?" I asked. "What happened!" I demand.

"Ron, was found dead about an hour ago in the library." Before I can reply Harry pulls me into a hug, "you're alright." he says softly. I continue to cry softly, speechless. I couldn't manage to speak a word. I let go of Harry when I hear Snapes voice.

" I see that has already told you?" I hear Snapes voice ask.

I turn around and blink twice really fast. But I don't reply to him.

"Hmmm, not speaking are we then."

I stare at him a few moments before I pluck up the courage to actually give him a honest reply."But, I didn't kill anybody. There're my best friends."

"Yes, it does seem that way, but since you seem so clever. You must be able to decieve people."

"I woul never! There is no way I would hurt my friends! Ron loved me! I loved him, how dare you accuse me of this, How dare you accuse me of killing him!" I yell outraged.

"how dare I? It is you that is being accused of these tragedies so I suggest you shut up and leave the matter alone! you just stay out of the way before anybody else gets hurt."

He starts to walk away. Harry stays and talks for a while until he has to leave. I really don't know why all this has been blamed on me. Who cares if I was the first one outside! I heard a scream and went go see if anything was wrong. Maybe not the most safe option...

I slam my fists into the wall "stupid!" I mutter under my breath. "so stupid!"

I hear a knock on the door and open it. Tonks and Moody stand in front of me along with kingsley who follows them as they enter the office. "Hello" I say sweetly.

"Hermione, nice to see you." Tonks smiles "although I do wish it was on differetn circumstances."

"so do I." I nod.

"Hermione, Do you recall seeing anything?" Kingsley asks me.

"No." I shake my head. "I hardly recall anything, except the time... It was around 4:00 am" I say.

They turn to one another. Giving each other nervous looks. "What is it?" I ask

"Nothing you need to be concerned about for now, thank you for your time."

"Thats it?" I reply. "You don't need to ask me anything else?"

"No, not right now, but thank you."

"When I turn back around in the room I sit down on the couch. Everybody should be in somewhere safe now, in their common rooms or something and the independent study books Mcgonagall ordered won't be here until tomorrow.

While wait I have nothing to do except take a private transfiguration lesson after school hours and lucky for me Snape also insists that I take potion classes every night since. 'Im not capable of studying independent potions.'

This is possibly one of the worst things thats happened. Accused of murdering one of my friends, and my boyfriend. Not only that until I'm proven innocent I have to take independent studies along with potions and transfiguration after school and last I can't wander around alone, go to meals with the rest of the school and sleep in the gryffindor common room with the rest of the students. Out of all the things on earth that could happen to me, this just had to be one of them,

Great.
