Chapter I: The Reason
It was just like any other day and so they say. But it wasn't any other day to Hermione Granger, it was special. She would be going back to Hogwarts for her 7th and last year as a witch. She was destined for great stuff in the wizarding world. But that dream was going to be short lived.
She only had one year left in the wizarding world and forever will she be a muggle nothing more, nothing less. Her parents told her that she will be moving to France with them after she graduated from Hogwarts. At first she was devastated to say the least. Until they told her the reason. The reason, of which she will leave her friends and the wizarding world forever. The reason, why she is determined to live her last year in Hogwarts and as a witch, to the best that she can do and be. The reason, why see was dolled up and standing in front of her friends beside the Hogwarts train, smiling at there amazed faces of her transformation from a bookworm to a --
"Mudblood" a voiced sneered behind her.
She turned to be met with Draco Malfoy's face smirking, seizing her up and down. He was accompanied by two massive forms behind him which where called Crabbe and Goyle. That could always hold up a fight anywhere, anytime.
"For once you cleaned up nicely. For a mudblood that is" he said with a smirk while walking away to the train. The distance voice of him and his companions could be heard laughing through the busy crowd around them..
"Are you alright, Hermione?" asked Harry with concern and mixed anger, which can be seen in his green eyes. "It is nothing, in time you get immune to it, I say" she replied with a smile.
"Enough about him, how was your summer at the Weasley's? I hope it was good." she said changing the subject while walking to the train.
"It was great, I got to play quidditch with Ron and his brothers. Wasn't that right Ron? Ron? Where did he go?" he said looking around for Ron. A blur of red could be seen running straight at them. "Sorry guys running out on you but I was buying some chocolate frogs for us for our trip to Hogwarts" Ron said while munching down on a chocolate frog.
They proceeded to the train and found an empty compartment. They were putting away their trunks when Ginny barged in.
"Hello guys" she said as she sat beside Harrry's pet owl Hedwig. "How are you doing all?"
"Fine actually, except for our oh-so-pleasant encounter with Malfoy and please note the sarcasm" Harry said with annoyance.
"What did he do now?" listening inventively to Harry.
"Same old, Same old. Teasing Hermione over here and stuff" glancing sideways to see Hermione reading a book. "Well don't put past him to annoy us every time he can"
"Poor Hermione did she took it well?" concern detected in her voice
"Yeah actually she did" he said with a smile. Which in return Ginny smiled back.
The distant goodbyes could heard as the train destined to Hogwarts left the train station. And here starts the true story of Hermione Granger.
