Author's Note: Hey! My name is Tauret. I'm a huge Harry Potter fan. I love fan fictions and I've written some but they were never really great. xD. So, I'm writing this one. I strive to be a Beta Reader, so I'll be working pretty hard on this story. Anyway, this is the prologue plus my Author-y Introduction! :D I can tell you, the prologue is super short, but I a.) don't want to reveal too much and b.) think it looks pretty nice. I'm working on chapter one right now and depending if I work hard enough, it'll be up tomorrow (being 8/22/08) or later today! I want my chapter to be a nice length, not something short. Maybe I can kill 6000 characters in one chapter, eh?
Well, enjoy my pathetic prologue and hopefully, if you stick around, the rest of my story!
You're my mystery
I'm your detective.
Let me reach inside
And solve you.

There is absolutely nothing I wouldn't do for him.
Walk the world in eighty days? I'd not only walk, but I would run.
Drop all my school books and stay at home for the rest of my life? Yes, please.
But most of all…
I'd sacrifice his love for me. I'd even sacrifice that. I'd even sacrifice that.

"Hermione!" screamed a voice. I turned and sighed as Ron and Harry ran up to her. Another school year, another year of dealing with Ron. The constant flirting and/or flaunting of his new girlfriend.
"Hermione," Ron gasped for breath, "Hermione, you look great." I smiled a little, patting my new, shorter, haircut. I could tell he was serious, which was greatly appreciated.
"Yeah! Ron's right. You're bloody gorgeous," Harry agreed. I blushed profusely. Harry winked. I was glad I had decided not to stay with them over the rest summer. It had been one month since we defeated Voldemort. It ended really fast, compared to what we thought. I was able to locate my parents, remove the enchantment I placed on them and things were as they once were. It was an enjoyable experience, all around. A successful summer.
"Harry, Ronald, we must get move on to the train before it leaves!" I stated.
"Alright, Hermione," Harry laughed, "I'll race you!" He burst off running.
"Hey! Wait for me!" I yelled, running after him, careful not to trip over my robes. Ron groaned and lazily trekked after us. I turned to smile at Ron and Harry and out of the corner of my eye, I saw a mysterious black shape disappear behind a column.
