Harry and Ron ran along the halls of the crumbling school all the way to the Great Hall Voldomort had called off his Death Eaters when he barged in yelling for the Professors.
Minerva gasped ''Harry what has happened.''
Harry and Ron were gasping ''Hermione, Taken, sacrificed.'' he was out of air as he spoke.
Ron spoke ''Harry was caught by one of the snatchers when Hermione punched him in the face, causing him to fall with a broken nose. She then allowed him to take her to protect Harry so we came back here for help we need to get out there and get her.''
Everyone looked horrified at what they had just learned. When Albus spoke ''This could be the perfect solution, this means Harry will be able to face down Tom.''
Minerva gasped ''Albus Dumbledore. You cannot be serious, she is just a girl.'' she yelled at him not believing what she was hearing.
Draco was standing there in shock he never liked the girl that much, but in the last year and the training he did with her made him respect her, she had saved him and his parents ''Headmaster You can not leave her out, there are you aware of what they will do to her, they have always been obsessed with Hermione you can't do this to her.''
Albus held his hand up ''Mr Malfoy this is all for the Greater Good. Without Harry we would not be able to kill Tom, Miss Granger did the best thing for all of us.''
Narcissa was in shock ''Albus please I am begging you, help the girl she saved us she saved Draco and Lucius you...'' but she was cut off mid sentence when she heard Harry's voice.
Harry roared ''Bull shit Albus, you are a manipulating old Bastard. Hermione was right about you she never trusted you fully she always told me you were just using everyone like we are pawns in the game. Mione has saved me for years and now she has not long, got out of Malfoy Manor and being tortured by Bellatrix but now she is back in the danger for her to torture her again, I can't. I won't allow this.''
Everyone was about to shout again when Professor Trelawney interrupted them ''I have a Mirror it will show us what is going on we will be able to hear as well. Miss Granger came up with the idea to set up mirrors through the forest so if anything happened or we needed information we could get it by watching..'' she quickly got the tall mirror set up ignoring the shocked faces.
Hermione was struggling against a Snatcher when she was brought to Voldomort she faced him head held high and she heard him speak
''Ssscabior what is this Mudblood doing here I asked for Potter.'' he yelled
Hermione smirked and said in a sing song ''Looks like someone's gunner get it, you failed your master tut tut.''
Scabior looked up at Voldomort ''My Lord forgive me. I had the boy and the girl punched me he escaped..'' however he didn't get a chance to say anymore he was hit with the killing curse.
Hermione stood there unfazed when one of the Carrow's had a hold on her instead she knew it was Alecto he was a vile man. when he was gripping the back of her throat.
Voldomort hissed and his eyes narrowed ''Sssuch a waste you Mudblood are a fool, you thought Harry Potter honestly cared for you didn't you. were isss he hiding while you defend him.''
Hermione looked at him ''No Harry Loves me we are brother and sister in every way.''
Voldomort slapped her across the face ''I did not ask you to ssspeak Mudblood however you are quite the talented witch. I do believe it hasss been you that have managed to figure out my plansss and Manage to sssave Potter sssince your first year.''
Hermione just stood there looking at him glaring ''Why thank you for that compliment, but your Point being?''
Everyone in the room were shocked they could not believe what they were hearing and that Hermione was speaking to them like that.
''Ahh feisty too. I sssee I do believe you punched one of the Traitorsss Draco Malfoy, you could be perfect and just what I need. Ssso I will make you an ultimatum join me now at my ssside and help me get to Harry Potter, tell me the plansss and I will not kill you and I will Let you go. Then after Potter is dead you can become my mistresssss and have all the power you could want and carry my heir.'' Voldomort said in a serious tone.
Hermione spat the blood that was in her mouth on the floor pointed and laughed before she spat ''Fuck you! I would never join you nor carry your heir and I am not going to tell you anything.''
Draco gasped ''Did she honestly just swear and laugh at the Dark Lord?'' he was standing there open mouthed he knew she was strong brave and loyal but to question him.
Ron opened his mouth ''I do think she just did.'' he was shocked as well.
Voldomort laughed an evil laugh, however Hermione didn't batter an eyelash ''I sssee brave and loyal no wonder you were in Gryffindor however you do not ssseem to fear me.''
Hermione looked at him and hissed ''That Tom Marvolo Riddle would be because you are nothing but a hypocrite.'' she smirked ''That's right I wonder how many of your loyal followers know of your true heritage.'' she smirked again ''Shall we be honest with them Tom, shall we tell them that while your spouting all this shit about wiping out all Muggle's and Half Bloods. I think you should kill yourself seeing as you're one of those Filthy Half-bloods, your Father was a Muggle and your Mother was a witch and that makes you a Half-blood not a Pure-Blood personally I think I would be insulted being tortured and killed by a half-blood, when your Followers are all Pure. Tut tut.'' she shook her head.
Voldomort could see that some of the Death Eaters looked at him in confusion ''Do not use that Filthy Name.''
''Why not? you are Tom Marvolo Riddle, Half-blood, born to a Muggle father, with a witch for a mother you were an old prefect of Slytherin house bullied and abandoned like many other children are when you kill their parents. ''Hermione spat at him
Voldomort yelled at her he was angry now he could not believe she spoke to him like that. ''ENOUGH CLEARLY YOU MUDBLOOD NEED TO LEARN YOU PLACE, PERHAPSSS A LITTLE PUNISHMENT.''
Hermione stood there when she felt Alecto punch her in the stomach three times she fell to the floor. She was winded, but then felt his boot connecting with her legs, ribs and back, she knew that she now had broken ribs along with a broken ankle and wrist but she would not cry.
Voldomort and all his followers laughed ''So Mudblood tell me, what have you and Potter got Planned.''
Hermione was gasping for air and was in pain she looked up at him with as much energy as she could muster ''I..I will never tell you, Go FUCK YOURSELF.''
Everyone in the Hall gasped again when they heard Seamus whisper, but not quietly enough ''Bloody hell if it was a fair game my money would be on Granger, but I am afraid she has a death wish it is amazing how she is defending Harry though.''
Harry and everyone looked at Seamus and he soon shut his mouth. They turned back and watched what was going on.
Harry walked up to the Mirror and had both Hands on either side of the Mirror in a death Grip ''Tell him Mione please I can't loose you Gods just tell him everything.'' he whispered with tears falling down his face he didn't care he loved Hermione she was his sister in every way. When he turned to the headmaster in disgust ''Please Headmaster do something it's not as if he can get me now I am here we could get Hermione as well and...''
Albus held his hand up ''And I am sorry about that Harry I truly am. But this is for the best she will be honored she is doing her part for the cause.''
Ron was the one who shocked everyone ''What the Fuck you cruel man their fucking torturing her!''
Everyone turned to look at him they were all shocked but no one made a move to reprimand him for his language because they agreed with Him and what he had said.
Lucius growled low in his throat, he could not believe the old man he never liked the chit but he got to know her him and his wife. She had saved Draco and rescued him as well as healing him plenty of times she had also backed them up to everyone telling them to give him and his wife the chance to prove themselves, she provided the protection from the Dark Lord and the others. He looked at the Mirror and he couldn't believe the girl had the guts to question him when he snapped ''YOU BLOODY OLD FOOL. YOU CAN NOT LEAVE HER THERE, I MAY NOT HAVE LIKED THE GIRL BUT I HAVE GOTTEN USED TO HER OVER THE TIME SHE IS BRIGHT, LOYAL AND INTELLIGENT YOU CAN NOT LET HER DIE AT THERE HANDS.''
They all looked back however when they heard more punching and shouting, they were all wincing when they watched her being hit over and over again by one of the Death Eaters.
Voldomort was loosing his patience with the girl ''TELL ME OR I KILL YOU. I HAVE GROWN BORED OF YOUR SSSILLY GAMESSS MUDBLOOD''
Hermione was struggling to speak, she could feel her chest get tighter, but she managed enough air to speak ''Like I said Voldy . not. talking.'' she then gasped and held her hand to her chest before speaking again. ''you won't kill me because I may know something too important in fact I do. Then gain maybe I am bluffing, but can you take that chance.'' before she could say any more she was kicked hard, so hard that she had rolled over from her one side to the other.
Bellatrix screamed at Hermione. ''Enough! let me punish her my Lord anything for you My Lord, she does not deserve you to even look at her.'' she wanted to make her pay because she had escaped her clutches at Malfoy Manor.
Hermione scrunched up her nose but couldn't resist ''There you go Tom problem solved you got yourself a Mistress and an Heir carrier Congratulations, shame she is so fucked up.'' she figured if she was going to suffer then she may as well get as much as she could.
Voldomort just nodded to his most faithful he knew she would do anything for him that was the only reason he tolerated her that and because she was the best at punishments ''Have sssome fun Bella jusst don't kill her yet.''
Bellatrix grinned and laughed in joy she went over and straddled her stomach when she leant over she pointed her wand at her ''Now you will learn that no one speaks to My Lord like that.'' she screamed ''CRUICIO'' and laughed like a maniac as she watched Hermione wither beneath her.
At first Hermione screamed and withered in shock and pain, but she soon stopped screaming and bit the inside of her cheek. She wouldn't give her the satisfaction, she would get bored or so she hoped she would.
Everyone in the Hall were gaping with their mouths opened and watching with wide eyes Lucius, Draco, Severus and Narcissa winced, they knew how powerful Bellatrix curses could be and they knew that Voldomort liked to use her to cast the punishments.
Harry gasped pretending to be shocked ''How the hell. She is torturing her and she isn't even screaming.'' he watched as everyone had gone pale including the Malfoy's and Snape, he knew they must have been under that spell plenty of times.
