Disclaimer: This is where I basically say don't sue me for using names that J.K. Rowling implemented in her Harry Potter Series. As for the movies, I don't own those either, but I still think it's stupid that I have to put disclaimers for the HP movies considering that they based it off of the book series…ending rant now...
Oh yeah, I'm also using lyrics from Nicki Minaj's song: "Save Me"! I've changed around some lyrics to suit the plotline of this story.

Title: Save Me
Prologue
No one knew where she was.
The media frenzy was outrageous. Headlines that should have screamed, "Hermione Granger: VANISHED," instead screamed "VOLDEMORT VANQUISHED," with pictures depicting two young men wearing uniforms associated with the Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. The pictures were in black and white, but the paleness of their faces was noticeable against the stark contrast of their somber uniforms. Dark splotches could be seen under their eyes, and if one was to view these pictures in color, the dark splotches would have been in the most alarming shades of purple. If one was to view the boys face to face, one would also notice the lines of strain around the corners of their mouths and the horrific hollow stares that these boys displayed whenever the name of the vanished person was mentioned.
However, too many people were celebrating the death of the most evil man in the magical community to fully comprehend the impact of a missing person to these young men. "The Dark Lord", also referred to as "He-Who-Shall-Not-Be-Named," or by the braver folk as "Voldemort," was recently killed in battle. Tales of the heroic deeds of Harry Potter were rampant within the magical community. Unfortunately, the missing person was just not another soul potentially lost in the heated battle, but rather an important member of the magical community, and a third responsible for the efforts made against the rise of He-Who-Shall-Not-Be-Named. Many wizards and witches who had known this person made numerous efforts to make the circumstances known: Hermione Granger, student of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, Gryffindor prefect, seventh year female, the smartest witch of her generation, a member of the Order of the Phoenix, founder of Dumbledore's Army, best friend of Harry Potter, and fiancé to Ronald Weasley, was missing.
Unfortunately, their efforts were in vain: one week turned into two, two weeks turned into three, three weeks turned into a month, one month turned into four, four months turned into a year, a year turned into two, until finally, Hermione Granger, once the brightest witch of her generation and the brightest star in Ronald Weasley's eyes, was deemed dead. The pictures of Hermione Granger, as plastered all over Diagon Alley, Hogsmeade, and parts of Knockturn Alley by the Order of the Phoenix depicted an image of a face that held darkly arched eyebrows set over large brown eyes. Occasionally, within the picture, the eyes themselves would blink, causing shadows to flare briefly across her face. These shadows were caused by the long lashes that naturally curled up, providing a look that even mascara couldn't accomplish. Offsetting these eyes were high cheekbones softened by slightly plump, rosy cheeks. These cheekbones held enough roundness to attest to the young age of the girl, which made the situation of finding the missing girl so much more nerve-racking.
The once smiling pictures of this girl, the ones that used to cover every inch of the magical community, eventually began to disappear. As the months moved on and the magical community rebuilt themselves, the significance of the missing girl became an unfortunate circumstance that had come out of the Final Battle. That is why it came to a surprise, when two years after the first picture was posted; a letter arrived in the home of a Misters Harry Potter and Ronald Weasley. The letter was written on a crème colored parchment that had most likely seen better times; however, that was not the cause for concern. The content within the letter, which would have been scoffed at by other young men of twenty years, set such a terrifying chill throughout the bodies of a Misters H. Potter and R. Weasley, the likes of which they had never experienced until the Final Battle, that they immediately dropped the parchment as if they were burned. As they hastily made floo calls to Order members, a certain Mrs. Ginevra Potter picked up the parchment, only to give a horrified whisper, repeating the content of the letter:
Save Me.
