It was now day two, a weekend, and no real school. A time to relax and explore, the new sensations that she had access to, and the castle. See what had changed since she was here six hundred years ago.
She was now free of her tomb for so long, only a day. And already she was causing mischief and havoc, some of the boys here would be so easy to control. Again that included Ronald Weasely. He would be her personal favorite. Her slave.
She got up and ripped open the drapes, another glorious day, in this early fall. The sun beating down on the grounds, the lake, the pitch, and that Hut. Which seemed to be a new addition. She would have to look into that. This, her sight of her last days in this world, and now her first days in the new one. Hogwarts, the one endless constant of reality. Binding worlds and history together.
She stood there, letting the warm golden rays hit her, probably cold out, but she had spent an eternity in cold rock. Down below the black lake. She could now feel blood, hormones, thoughts, impulses, desires, and the heat, rushing through her new body. Both of hers, and of her host Hermione Granger. And soon they would be one. She cocked her head to one side and stretched out, letting the sun warm her neck. Luxuriating in it. Closing her eyes. Glad to be alive again, and wanting to start her conquest of this world again, where she left off.
And who would suspect sweet, innocent, and mysteriously lovely Hermione Granger?
She stood there for another ten minutes, she could feel the looks of her classmates as they got up to go to the great hall, but she did not care, yet. They would soon be serving her anyways. Yes, she who would do what Voldemort could only dream of. With that thought she finally went down to the Great Hall. Getting dressed in her new dress first.
She ran into Ginny first, and smiled to herself, knowing what she had in mind. "Hey Ginny! Wait up!" She called.
Ginny turned and let Hermione catch up with her, crossing her arms as she waited. She caught up with her.
"How are you today Hermione?" She greeted.
"Oh, marvelous, simply outstanding. Yourself?"
"Oh just fine."
They walked down two flights of steps, full of hungry people moving down for yet another breakfast at this location of locations.
She waited for another little bit..."Ginny, do you still have a thing for Harry?"
"What...Harry...why, well if I did it would not matter, me being with Dean, and I think he still likes Cho."
"Cho?" She asked as she quickly rifled through her host's memories, as she found the one that she wanted. "Oh her. Nah. I do not really think so Gin, maybe, but I highly doubt it."
"Hmmmm..." She grew very thoughtful. "Well I mean, he is Harry Potter, the one who defeated Voldemort, and he was cute back then." She giggled slightly, then grew serious. "But no, not really, that was back then. And besides, I am sure we all have had a passing fancy of The Boy Who Lived." She looked pointedly at Hermione.
"Me? Oh heavens no." She said with a grin. "But come on, not even a small fancy."
"Well, I suppose..." Ginny let her voice trail off.
"Have you considered love potion?"
"What?"
"Love Potion"
"Oh, there is an idea," another giggle. "But seriously, that would be mean, and I could not do it to him."
"Well, he will come around eventually, men are putty to our wiles if we use them." She winked back at Ginny as she moved a head and into the Great Hall. Leaving her very confused.
She entered the Great Hall, and looked up and down the Gryfindor table, looking, searching. Eventually finding Ron and Harry sitting together again, chatting despite there being food down in front of them.
She decided to go up to them, making her way through the still gathering crowds. "Hey Ron" She greeted as she swung her legs around the bench, just making sure that they were a couple of inches from his face.
"Hey Hermione." He said a bit weakly, trying to forget.
Porridge instantly appeared before her features, the house elves doing their usual bang up job, like always. She adjusted her self slightly on the bench, edging in to start eating the meal. Then she reached over, and stroked Ron's leg slightly. It made him start, but only a little. As if in surprise. Harry whipped around and looked at the two of them. Suspicious.
"Sorry. Thought I felt something on my leg." Ron explained looking down at Harry. The three of them continued to eat.
Hermione, every now and then continued to reach down and touched Ron's leg, although throughout the rest of the meal he did not seem to react as violently as before. He was getting used to it. And was beginning to enjoy it in a way. Hermione knew that pretty soon, he would be hers for the taking.
Breakfast ended soon after that. She got up and began to immediately look for any other havoc that she might be able to cause in the school at this point in time. Trying to decide where exactly would be the best place to go from here on her after noon off.
She stepped out into the Great Hall to look around, boardly taking in the sights. She saw Hannah and Matilda on the other side of the Hall looking around at their surroundings in dazed confusion.
Hermione continued to look around, at the surrounding students. Three Seventh year boys were sitting around a bench on the outer part of the castle, she could just barely make them out through the windows. She smiled to herself, as she knew what she could do. She touched the edge of her wand, and Hannah and Matilda instantly adjusted their course left. She followed them out the door.
It was a beautiful and sunny day, but a bit chilly out. But oh once again to be alive, and to be in any body at all, this was pure heaven. She once again touched her wand and the two girls shifted their direction again, she watched off in the distance, and then, Matilda sent off a loud pop from the end of her wand point. All of the boys started, and one of them even fell out of their chair. She then saw Matilda profusely apologize to the boy, while touching his shoulder slightly, before picking him up off the ground. The boy stared after her, while she and Hannah started off toward Hermione. While Hermione smiled to her self.
Now she wondered off toward the Kitchens, looking for her next bit of mischief and uneasiness she could cause.
