Draco And Hermione.
By A Harris.
Note: Alright! For starters, this is based tightly and loosely on Romeo and Juliet because there is just something about this pair that screams Romeo and Juliet. It's the forbiddeness I think. LOL! Secondly, it is based when everyone is out of school. It's set in Hogsmeade which is a beautiful wizard/witch city. There are no Muggles but there are Muggle things like T.V's, cars and guns. And it's set in a beautiful beach setting but it will also have the castle of Hogwarts near by. Thirdly, it's warring family houses, not school houses (although being in what school house does have something to do with it.) Which also means that the city is run by the Minister of Magic. And finally, the Grangers are based on the Montagues, a powerful pureblood family, (I don't neccesarily like the Hermione pureblood thing but it's just easier this way), and the Malfoys are based around the Capulets. And the fic revolves around the movie, not the play. BTW, this story is written like a screenplay.
Disclaimer: You know the usual. I don't own HP or Romeo and Juliet and hell's got a great chance of freezing over before I get any money from this. So don't sue me, please. This is just an over imaginative addaption.
And now the fic...
Chapter 1: Prologue
Enter Albus Dumbledore, old, wizened and deeply saddened. He wears his familiar blue wizard robes and his trademark long white hair and beard hanging loosely in front of his still somewhat lively and well shaped body. Minerva McGonagle follows behind him in emerald green flowing robes and her hair tied tightly in her strict bun. Minerva is also melanchollie. Together they sit in two large comfy chairs facing a black drawn curtain with in Dumbledore's office. With the flick of his wand, Dumbledore summons his T.V and it levitates toward them, growing ever larger, turning on and flicking channels until it settles on a news bulletin. Dumbledore and McGonagle sit back and watch saddly and quietly as a black witch anchorwoman appears beside a picture of a ring. The T.V stops when it reaches their preffered and best vision and the anchorwoman begins the next news story.
Anchorwoman: Two households, both alike in dignity,
In fair Hogsmeade, where we lay our scene,
From ancient grudge break to new mutiny,
Where civil blood makes civil hands unclean.
From forth the fatal lions of these two foes
A pair of star-cross'd lovers take their life;
Whose misadventured piteous overthrows
Doth with their death bury their parent's strife.
The fearful passage of their death-marked love,
And the continuance of their parent's rage,
Which, but their children's end, naught could remove,
Is now the two hours' traffic of our stage;
Suddnely, from both Dumbledore's and McGonagle's point of view, we feel as if were sucked into the T.V screen and are brought to the beautiful center of Hogsmeade. It is as if we are going back in their memory but we are a fly on the wall to everything that is about to happen. We return to a few days earlier.
A massive statue of Merlin stands above a wizard church and we are close on it. Then we are taken back suddenly and we see two opposing skyscrapers that lie on opposite sides of Merlin's church. On the left of our view we have Malfoy with a massive snake built as a sign on the skyscraper roof. And on the other skyscraper is seen another large sign with Granger and a lion on it.
Then views come before our eyes as we hear Remus Lupin, a beloved Hogwarts professor, werewolf and friend to Hogwarts students sound over the background. Lupin is in charge of Merlin's church.

We flash over more of Hogsmeade and see certain members of the wizard/witch society until darkness covers our eyes and we become wrapped in the happenings of the last couple of days.
