Chapter 1 – The Golem
The sun rose and its warm rays hit the cold walls of a gigantic castle. Its residents slowly awoke from the deep slumber that had taken over them just hours before. One had stood out above the rest.
This young girl of sixteen awoke slowly and made her way to the bathroom. She brushed her teeth, washed her face and did her usual morning routine. She had a mass of bushy brown hair and a pair of astounding amber eyes which were covered by a thin frame of glasses for reading. She owned a petite frame and a pretty face yet all its glory was stolen by the mass of her abominable locks. Her name was Hermione Granger.
This was yet another day in the life of this girl who seemed to have been keeping a secret in those eyes of hers which held great power, knowledge, wisdom and regret.
"Hermione? Are you finished yet? Lavender needs her cosmetic products now!" a voice interrupted the young girls' thoughts. This was her roommate Parvati Patil. She, unlike Hermione, had long pitch black hair which could be described only by the word 'Beautiful.' And along with this beauty was another. Lavender Brown; she had a pretty face and the hair Hermione wished she had. Lavender's brown eyes looked so deep and mysterious and she owned a model's body.
Hermione sighed and opened the bathroom door to let her roommates in and started putting on her uniform. She stared at her appearance in the mirror and sighed. She would never change. She was a girl of sixteen in a twelve year old body. Well… as far as she could see with such a baggy and loose uniform.
She dismissed it and quickly grabbed her book bag and left for the library, her sanctuary and her abode.
Her trip there was relevantly uneventful save for a few insults thrown by some Slytherins time and time again.
She smiled as she neared the library. She greeted the librarian and went back to her usual table hidden behind rows of bookshelves. And as usual she found someone there waiting for her…
"Malfoy." She sneered irritably as she pushed his books off her table.
"Granger, when are you going to admit you like me?" he smirked.
"Leave." She scolded.
"Yeah, whatever Granger; Your brain looks like it's about to explode by the way, oh it's just your hair."
She ignored him yet he didn't want to go away! Like some sort of anal cavity in your second molar that happened to be slanting sideways so to extract means to cut it in half and pull it out piece by piece.
"Why do you look like a monster Granger? Is that why you don't have a boyfriend? Or do you honestly think that your… uh… 'look', if that's what you call it, will attract the male species? You have to keep in mind that it's the human male species you are trying to attract. Not the orangutans you have jumping around your hair."
'He's going away soon. He's going away soon. He's going away soon. He's going away soon. He's going away soon. He's going away soon!'
"So, what's the answer Granger? Or have I finally found a question the brain can't answer?"
'Dammit. He's not going away any time soon!'
"I see you're not going to talk any time soon." He yawned then began his departure.
'He's leaving!'
"See you at potions Granger."
'Dammit. We have all of today's classes together!'
Hermione sighed then left her beloved table and went back to the Gryffindor Common Room.
"Lace Wings." She said tired at the Fat Lady.
"Of course, dear." The portrait replied and swung open.
She sat down on one of the couches and waited for the boys to come down.
"Good Morning." She smiled at both her best friends.
She observed them as they yawned their reply.
Ron had gotten even taller than he already was. He was pushing over 6"5. His red hair had grown long but only long enough to look messy not girly or too long. He still had those same blue eyes and had a handsome boyish face. His eyes were droopy this morning and his mouth was a straight line. He opened it only to mumble things like, 'Bloody Alarm Clock. Doesn't know what's good for it.'
Harry on the other hand had matured immensely and his looks were nothing to laugh about. His glasses were still there but with the help of the 'reparo' charm, looked new. His emerald green eyes were so eye catching and beautiful a lot of the female population had fallen in love with them. Harry's body had also greatly matured thanks to his six years in Quidditch. He had grown taller but was about a head or so shorter than Ron. His signature messy black hair was still the same but it… suited him more now. his scar was still visible but not as eye catching as before.
"Good Morning Hermione." Harry greeted yawning slightly.
She nodded and they made their way to the Great Hall.
She sighed as the boys both nodded incoherently at the people greeting them. How could they just ignore those who wanted to be friends? She couldn't understand it. And she hated not understanding.
"Go-Go-Good Morning… Harry…" a small fourth year said as she walked up to Harry.
Harry smiled a bit and waved her off. She walked away blushing but bas soon as she was sure Harry wasn't looking, she cried.
Hermione got mad.
As the three sat down she started telling Harry off.
"Harry! That wasn't very appropriate or nice to that girl!" she said a little hushed since she didn't want to embarrass herself or Harry.
"Which one?" he asked sleepily.
Hermione just huffed.
"Which one? Which one? WHICH BLOODY ONE!" she shouted at him. Part of the Gryffindor table had already been staring at them.
"Quiet down Hermione. It's not like anybody got hurt. And Harry's right. Which one? A handful of girls spoke to him this morning. He can't just pinpoint one." Ron shook his head and reprimanded Hermione quietly.
"That's exactly my point!" she glared at the boys. "Are those girls so unimportant that you don't even remember them?" she felt a feeling in her as if she was one of the girls… in fact, she was.
She could feel her eyes water as she ran out of the Great Hall. And to add even more insult, The Slytherins did not hesitate to remind her of how pathetic she looked.
"WHAT'S WRONG GRANGER? POTTER AND WEASLEY FINALLY DUMP YOU?"
"WHAT HAPPENED? DID YOUR HAIR EXPLODE AGAIN?"
But the worst came from Draco Malfoy himself as he blocked the doors.
"Finally realized you're alone?" he whispered.
No one else heard it beside her and she didn't know if that was worse since she let him see her… let him see her in tears…
She ran to the only place she felt safe and alone… to the library.
For the first time in years, she had not went to any of her morning classes and just sat and stared at the air in front of her. She couldn't take it anymore. She felt so alone… like no one was there for her. Harry and Ron would always be her best friends and she would always care for them even if they weren't as good to the other girls but she seemed to want… more. She wasn't mad at Harry and Ron for how they acted… she was mad at herself since she was looking for someone inside them that wasn't them. Someone she could somehow had more with. But who could blame her? They were all she had; No one else. Yet she wanted more? Since when had she become so selfish?
She let her tears fall again as she laid her hands on the table and rested her head. Her eyes began to close slowly as she let her tears fall.
"Don't worry Hermione, you're not alone. You have me. You just have to know where to look." A blurry image whispered to her.
"I don't know where!" she screamed at it as it began to fade away.
"You know. It's right in front of you." It smiled then disappeared.
Hermione looked around her and saw nothing but darkness. The place was in front of her? She couldn't see it! Suddenly, the image of the library had appeared as she followed her feet as they walked automatically to a destination unknown to her.
She looked around and saw the many books she had already read. She looked up and found a door; the way to the restricted section. She took out her wand and whispered the unlocking charm. The door unlocked and she walked in. Her feet guided her towards a single book which was so dusty, she already sneezed walking ten steps towards it.
She blew the dust off the cover and started flipping the pages… and one page took her attention.
Golem; A magical dummy which may be created. If created for the right reasons and created perfectly, golem may posses personality of choice of the which or wizard who cast its spell. WARNING: MAGICAL POWERS MAY BE DRAINED INTO THE GOLEM IN SOME CASES.
She stared at the incantation and whispered it to herself. Goleminte lipardus. Her whole body started glowing and she kept chanting the addicting words. Suddenly, the world seemed to darken. Her eyesight seemed to leave her yet one image burned itself in her head. A boy.
"Hermione, dear, wake up." A voice interrupted her slumber.
She slowly began to open her eyes.
The image of the school nurse appeared before her.
"Are you alright, dear?" she asked.
Hermione nodded but clutched her head since a monstrous urge to barf came along with her huge headache.
"Don't rush it dear. Good thing this young lad was able to bring you here in time before you could step into a coma."
"Where am I? Who brought me here?" she asked.
"You're in the hospital wing. I don't know his name but he is waiting for you. I'll go get him."
Madame Pomfrey left and a boy stepped in.
"Are you alright?" he asked.
Hermione didn't even lift her head at him. "Yeah. Who are you by-" she finally got a look at him. He had blonde hair and the most amazing blue eyes. His face was well formed and he had the perfect lips. His body was one that only those who worked very hard in their life could acquire and he exuded a feeling that made you feel warm. "-the way…"
"I don't have a name." he said simply and gently.
"What do you mean?"
"You created me."
"WHAT!"
