Disclaimer: I am not JK Rowling. All characters and locations etc. belong to her. I have just twisted her brilliance and created fanfiction out of it.
This is an alternative universe fic where Voldemort ends up killing Harry Potter. It is my first ever fanfiction, so please don't be too harsh, but constructive criticism will be appreciated. Thank you if you are reading this, I hope you enjoy, and I'll see you at the bottom. Also, I am only in college (high school for Americans), and I have no BETA so if I make any spelling/grammatical errors, please tell me and I'll fix them.
Her eyes darted around the deserted street, looking for any signs of movement. The safe house she was living in was right across the pitch black road, the property only visible to those who had been told the location. The Secret-Keeper, Bill Weasley, had devoted all of his time to making sure no Death Eater could infiltrate Luna Lovegood's apartment. Even in the Muggle World, The Order was not safe.
After Harry Potter died by the hand of The Dark Lord, Death Eaters started murdering Muggles and Muggle-borns by the hundreds, and nobody was safe. Blood-traitors such as the Weasleys were thrown into Azkaban and left to rot. This was the fate that Ronald Weasley had met four months ago. The Order was still uncertain whether or not he lived.
Hermione Granger was The Order's last hope. She was the only witch that had enough power to kill Voldemort. Though he had killed The Chosen One, every horcrux had been destroyed, and the burden of the war laid solely on Hermione's shoulders. Although she was pressured, she looked forward to finally getting rid of the half-blood hypocritical bastard.
Once she was sure there was nobody nearby, she ran across the street, only to be hit by the full body-bind curse.
"You'll be coming with us, filthy Mudblood" spat one of the hooded figures, and the last thing she clearly remembered was a rough hand clamped over her mouth, along with the distinct pop of apparation.
When she finally awoke from her state of unconsciousness, the first thing she thought of was pain, the excruciating type of pain that made one wish for instant death. But Hermione Granger was no coward, so she sat up and examined her surroundings to the best of her abilities. She could tell she was in the Malfoy Manor from the description Ron had given her of the dungeons the first time she was tortured by Bellatrix Lestrange.
It was cold and damp, and she could smell blood in the air. It took her a few moments to realize the blood was her own, and matted into her thick, bushy hair. She could also tell that her wand had been taken off her as she couldn't feel it in her back pocket whilst she slowly crawled to the bars of her cell. In the minimal amount of light she received from the stairs leading to the drawing room, she looked at her body. She had many bruises and cuts along her arms and legs, and a large cut on her torso that was obviously healed very badly.
"That'll leave a scar" she thought with remorse as she continued her examination. Her hair was indeed full of blood, and she could feel the source in the middle of her scalp, where it felt warm and sticky. Her fingers were tainted red when she finished finding every injury. Hermione started to feel slightly dizzy, whether it was the sight of how much blood she had shed, or the after effects of the Cruciatus Curse she had obviously been hit with, she was not sure, but she collapsed to the cold, hard ground, losing to a state of unconsciousness once more.
"The Mudblood is in here" jeered a Death Eater as he kicked Hermione in the stomach. She willed herself not to show any pain, but could not keep in the yelp that escaped her mouth. Now that the Death Eaters were aware she was conscious, she sat up and put on a brave front, facing them head on.
"Stand her up Yaxley!" barked Fenrir Greyback, who had not bothered to wear a mask. Standing next to him was a pale Draco Malfoy, who looked at her with no emotion in his dead, grey eyes. The Death Eater, who Hermione assumed was Yaxley, violently grabbed her by the arm (paining her already weak limbs) and forced her to stand in front of the two others. Greyback looked her up and down before smirking.
"She has a good body for a filthy Mudblood," growled Greyback as he shamelessly leered at her, "if The Dark Lord hadn't given her to you, I would take her now. But we can share, can't we, my dear boy?" he said looking over at Draco. Hermione's eyes widened as she heard this, and her head shot up in shock.
"Oh yes Mudblood, were you not aware that The Dark Lord presents 'helpless' filth such as yourself to his most loyal followers to treat as they wish until they are of no more use? That quarter-Veela, the one married to a Weasley, she was killed only three weeks ago once I was finished with her" Fenrir Greyback laughed as Hermione gave a startled gasp hearing about how Fleur died. She knew Bill would be horrified if he knew. Yaxley laughed with Greyback, and also asked Draco if he could have a go after him.
Although she was determined not to display weakness, she could feel tears drop onto her cheeks. Her mind muted the voices of the Death Eaters and the werewolf as they discussed the horrible ways they would treat her. She started slipping to the ground, but before she could, she heard Yaxley scream out "crucio", and Hermione began screaming, as she felt pain greater than a thousand white-hot knives, boring into her skin. The curse was lifted momentarily so Yaxley could shout at her, and tell her she could not dare to disrespect her superiors again, but then the curse hit her again. After what felt like hours of screaming and crying, the curse was lifted, and she slowly opened her eyes to see Yaxley and Greyback exit the dungeons. Hermione saw Draco Malfoy approach her and she frantically backed away from him, until her back hit the wall, and when she could not escape him, her spastic muscles tried to attack the youngest Malfoy.
"Resistance is useless Granger," he drawled slowly, "now I suggest you follow me, otherwise you will not be forgiven."
I know this chapter is really just information overload, but I want to get it out of the way so I can get onto character development etc. I hope it's okay, and I know it's short but I'm working on it. Please leave a review (even if it's very short), and I will try to update in the next week or so.
