The sun was rising slowly, bringing light into the thick air. It rose shinning light onto the castle- not that it needed more light.
Hermione felt a tear drip down her face as she watched her school, her home ablaze. The fire had spread right through the castle, burning everything in its path. The fire was bewitched, she heard McGonagall say , that there was no way to stop it. All the defences where down and the magic that normal hung to the air had been replaced by the fires smoke. There was no magic. Magic was no more. Not a single spell could be cast.
She watched in horror as the tower they had Divination in crumbed to the ground was a loud bang and a storm of smoke drifted close to the children. The smoke was too close way too close . . . . .
Hermione passed out landing with a thump on a hard pointy rock.
Hermione sat in the Gryffindor Common Room singing to herself as happy as happy could be. She sung a muggle song she heard back home. No, that was a lie. She wrote the song even though she just told people it was a muggle song.
The fire is burning right through my heart.
Oooh oooh
It spears no mercy as it cuts right through me.
oooh oooh.
Her joyful mumbles where suddenly disturbed as Katie Bell ran into the room.
"The school is on fire! We need to get out!"
Hermione yelped. " Accio trunk!" she said, her voice wavering. Nothing happened. She repeated the spell six times. Still nothing. She dashed up to her dorm grabbed her cat and her stuff and ran.
When out the door she saw where the safety point was and ran faster then she ever had before. She stood beside McGonagall and listened to what she was saying to Madam Pomfrey .
"A Death Eater has cursed our school." Hermione heard her wail. "Everyone in the castle has lost all magic powers and all magical creatures have been killed by the smoke!." McGonagall lowered her voice. " Even half breeds."
"Miss Granger are you okay?" asked a comforting voice. Hermione weakly nodded and turned to the speaker. Madam Pomfrey. She then sat up. A loud cry escaped her.
Hogwarts was nothing but a pile of flaming bricks.
"Fire, fire you destroy me. Oooh, oooh." she mumbled between large sobs.
Just in case you didn't notice half breeds means Hagraid was killed as well. Please R&R! Also after reading this you may still have a few questions. That's not a problem. I sort of wanted it to be a bit blunt be if there is something you don't understand about this story feel free to PM me or put up a public review. It was quite short and sad so please don't hate me! Also this story came to mind when I was wondering what to do with all the sadness I felt after finding out that Alan Rickman died today.
R.I.H Alan Rickman.
