a/n – my first Harry Potter story so be gentle..please

1. Necromas

Hermione sighed as she gathered her things from her room. She was moving to The Burrow. She had no choice. Her eyes filled with tears as she remembered that day.

Hermione sat at the bus stop in the snow. It was Christmas break and her parents hadn't come to pick her up from Hogwarts. It was so unlike them. Sure, they ignored her sometimes but, forgetting to pick her up? That was a first.

So there she sat waiting for the muggle bus to pull up, when she seen a man, who she would have sworn was Lucius Malfoy, along with a few others she didn't recognize, walking down the street.

Was he limping?

You really ARE losing it, Granger, she told herself, what the hell would Mr. Malfoy, a limping Mr. Malfoy at that, be doing walking down 53rd street in muggle London?

Hermione got off the bus at her house about 30 minutes later, throwing open the door and running inside. She should have looked more carefully. Maybe if she had, she would have seen the dark mark floating above her house.

"Mom? Dad?" she called tossing her trunk on the couch. "Hello? Is anyone here?"

She screamed. There in the kitchen, lay her mother and father, faces frozen in a look of pure horror, dead. A bloody knife was still clutched in her fathers hand, her mothers prized tea pot in pieces on the floor.

"Melin, shit. Jesus-fucking-Christ. Oh God, oh God." She screamed again backing herself into a corner of the room, crying. She wrapped her arms around her legs and began rocking back and forth. "Oh God, oh God, oh God..."
