Never Like This

Ever logical Hermione is in massively illogical trouble. Making a list of pros and cons wont make anything any easier. To many variables means multiple outcomes. But can she survive the unknown and chaos? Can she take on someone else's destiny and win? slow burn Hermione/Tom Jr time travel fic. Rated M for potentially violent and sensitive situations and smut. AU after 5th

1. A Field

AN: Hello all! This is my first attempt at a Fan fiction. This is a Hermione/ Tom Jr (Voldemort) story. It is rated M for the obvious reason of future situations and smut! Also I do not own a single recognizable thing in the story, they all belong to JKR and am making no money off this story! Also, the story image I did not make, I tried to find the original creator to give credit but with no luck. Please if you're so inclined, leave a review (constructive criticism welcome). Thank you!

The stars that hung in the new moon sky provided the only light for miles upon a lone English country side field. This field was nothing special. This field never held a historical battle, no events of note to anyone, it wasn't even used to grow anything. No, this field was just that a field but just the same, the stars shown down, illuminating the ground.

If anyone had been around in this ordinary field, they would have heard nothing. Not the gentle hum of an electrical current nearby, no sounds of cars in the distance, not even the small chirp of a single cricket. Nothing dared to disturb the deafening silence that surrounded this field.

But no one was there. No one was there to feel the sudden change in the air, the abrupt energy ripple that bubbled across the field. No one was there to witness the figure that now stood in this nothing special field.

This figure was shrouded from head to toe, in a black cloak that was slightly lighter than the night surrounding them. The movement of the cloak only visible due to the sparse light the stars provided. The figure walked briskly in an outwardly random direction. No point of reference visible even if someone was there to witness it, nothing being seen in every direction. Their walk was filled with unknown purpose.

If someone had been in the nothing special field, maybe things would be different. Maybe someone would have questioned these events, how someone who appeared from nothing, disappeared just as quick back into nothing. And maybe, just maybe the events that would result from this seemingly unimportant series of happenings wouldn't have happened and everything would remain the same.

But, no one was around.
