Hermione said that she was nearly sorted to Ravenclaw. That calls out for an AU fic, so here we go. Disclaimer: none of the characters belong to me.
Author note: I'm also working on "Home Free", but this idea was too good to pass up.
Hermione in Ravenclaw
Chaper 1 Sorted
The Sorting Hat was placed over Hermione Granger's head. She heard its odd little voice in her mind, saying "Hmmm, brains in plenty, talent and courage too. I'd say either Gryffindor or Ravenclaw."
"I've read that Gryffindor is the best, so I'd like that one, please," thought Hermione.
"Are you sure? The brightest students are in Ravenclaw. Gryffindors and brave and bold, ready to break the rules at times..." the Hat said.
"Break the RULES? I don't know about that," Hermione hesitated.
"Then, to be safe, I'll say RAVENCLAW!" said the Hat.
Hermione walked to the Ravenclaw table to cheers from the house members. She sat next to a pretty, dark-haired girl.
"Hi, I'm Cho Chang," said the girl, with a welcoming smile.
"Hi Cho, I'm Hermione."
"I'm glad I'm in Ravenclaw, aren't you?" asked Mandy Brocklehurst, a new Ravenclaw who was sitting across the table from her.
"Yes, I think I'll fit in best here," said Hermione. She pushed aside her regrets about what might have been.
"Whew! I'm glad she's not a Gryffindor," Ron said to Harry. Harry nodded.
