Chapter 1


AN: Read and Review cause this is my second shot on fanfiction stories. So I hope you enjoy it .XxXxX


It was a bright sunny day at the Weasley burrow, the sun was streaming into the windows, and the birds were chirping merrily in the air. There was a light breeze outside chasing the leaves on the ground, swirling them around the burrow littering the ground prettily. Hermione and Ginny were sitting in Ginny's bedroom preparing their trunks to return to Hogwarts. Neither girl wanted to return to the school of magic, the war had finally ended and Voldemort was dead, but the price was much higher than they expected. During the final months of war Hermione had helped her two best friends Harry and Ron search for the last Horcrux. They were planning to destroy Voldemort for good, however as the final battle raged on Voldemort was killed and he brought Harry, Ron and many other honorable wizards down with him.

Hermione and Ginny were still sitting in Ginny's room talking about what it would be like, life after Hogwarts without the boy's around. Even the thought of being at Hogwarts for their final year was un-comprehendible without the boys at their side. Hermione's mind was constantly drifting in and out of her conversation with Ginny and back to the last battle where everything seemed to have gone wrong.

"Hermione ...Hermione." No response, Ginny had been calling Hermione's name but she seemed so deep in thought to notice, but what worried Ginny was not her friends silence but the tears slowly falling from her eyes.

...FLASHBACK...

"HARRY where are you! ...HARRY "Hermione screamed, she was searching frantically for her friend in the midst of battle.

Over a small hill in the near distance a man screaming in pain could be heard over all that was happening, though if anybody paid attention they would realize this was not just anybody's voice.

"HARRY "Hermione shouted as she ran through the crowds of Death Eaters and Order members trying desperately to get to Harry, he was all she could think of at that moment ... He would save her ... save them all from Voldemort, he was there last and only hope.

Hermione was still running. Tripping and stumbling over dead and fallen, friends and enemies alike as she ran with all her might toward her friend. The blood that had been shed in this battle had covered a substantial amount of the ground below her turning the usually lush green grass to a startling scarlet color. She stopped as the scene before her unfolded, Harry on the ground twitching and writhing in pain as Ron tried to help him up.

"Come on mate its nearly over come on ... we can do this Harry, together."

Just as Ron had stopped, talking Voldemort lifted the spell from Harry who jumped to his feet as quickly as he could without loosing eye contact with Voldemort.

Voldemort turned to Ron pointing his wand.

"Insolent BOY what do you think you are doing, you can not defeat me I am Lord Voldemort and not even the great Harry potter (Aka The - boy - refused - to - die) can defeat me ... look at him weak and Pathetic!" Voldemort spat this last part.

Before Ron or Harry could say anything in retaliation, Hermione screamed out for them. This made Voldemort laugh, a cruel maniacal sound that sent shivers down the darkest wizard's backs.

"Harry ...Ron you have to get out of here." Hermione was throwing herself forward in a bid to close the gap between them.

"No Hermione this is between Voldemort and I, you knew it would have to end this way, goodbye. SCUTUM" Harry placed a shield around Voldemort and himself encasing them in.

Hermione and Ron shouted for Harry who was now dueling fiercely with Voldemort throwing every hex, curse and jinx he could remember.

Harry now facing a weakened version of Voldemort, having hit him with the Cruciatus curse repeatedly just as he had done to Harry shouted curse after curse at Voldemort in the hope of weakening him further.

They both stood circling each other inside their barrier, each waiting for the other to make the move they thought to be their last.

Almost simultaneously, Harry and Voldemort shouted "AVADA KEDAVRA ".

As both curses hit each other with a force so great, that no one could deny the power that both wizards inside the barrier held, but as the power of the spell grew stronger draining the power from both wizards their wands connected.

A bright crimson jet of light flew from Harry's wand and connected with a emerald green (Thought id bring some house colors' into the story) stream of light coming from Voldemort's wand, as they held the bond they both began glowing almost golden, when the barrier Harry had placed around them earlier became weaker and weaker.

Both wizards involved in the duel were oblivious to the goings on around them as they began to levitate into the air still glowing and still holding their bond, both determined to outlast the other in a final bid and show of power.

When suddenly jets of light shot from their wands at the point they were now connected and were bouncing off the barrier making it considerably weaker than before, Harry's eyes widened with shock as did Voldemort's they had never seen this type of magic before. All of a sudden, there was an explosion from inside the barrier as the curses finally collided with full force destroying the barrier and everything around it.

Ron and Hermione were thrown backwards with everyone within 300 feet of the explosion.

Hermione slowly stood from where she had fallen pulling rocks and debris from her body which had covered her during the explosion and began looking around with wild eyes and tears threatening to fall when she seen it. Ron's body lying limp on the ground his head having collided with the many pieces of debris now covering the battlefield.

Hermione came to Ron's side to check if he was still breathing but he was not he was just lying there still as the night. She began looking around for Harry or even any sight of Voldemort, because after that explosion she hoped the Dark Lord had what was coming to him…Death.

Hermione spotted Harry laying motionless on the ground not to far from Ron, there were bodies all around him some friend some foe.

She ran to his crumpled form kneeling down beside him not caring about her own injuries and placing his head in her lap. He looked peaceful almost as if he was sleeping, there was no other way he would have such an angelic look on his face. He looked younger if that was even possible. Looking at him now Hermione understood why, he no longer had the weight of the whole world on his shoulders. No longer was the burden or war death and loss sitiing on his shoulders, he was free, at last. Hermione reached out and checked for a pulse, a last act of hope, a small pulse, even a single rhythm to signal life in the lifeless body ………none. She could hold back her tears no more everyone she had loved dearly was gone, Her parents her brother Jake, Dumbledore, Sirius, Remus, Tonk's, Ron, Fred, George and Charlie Weasley, Most of the order were dead. Most of Hogwarts sixth and seventh years had died during their noble battle for peace, And now Harry. All she could do was hold him close crying from the pain and suffering she and the world had to endure under the rule of Voldemort.

END FLASHBACK

"Hermione, Hermione are you ok. "

"Uh what, oh sorry Ginny I was just thinking of you know, that night." She said with a far away look in her eyes.

"It's ok Hermione I was just worried you weren't answering me and you were crying are you sure you don't want to talk, because you know I'm always here for you." Ginny knew all to well what Hermione was talking about "The final battle "She had lost most of her family there and the people she had come to love.

"Thanks Gin, hey are u finished packing yet, cause if you are would you like to go on a walk around the garden I need the air."

"Yeah sure Hermione I'll be there now I was just closing my trunk."

The next day

"Ginny, Hermione! Come on your going to miss the train if we don't get moving now "

"COMING MUM, God if that woman says one more time we're going to miss the train I'm going to snap."

Ginny slammed the lid of her trunk shut and sighed in annoyance as her mothers shrill voice carried up the stairs calling for them to hurry up, while Hermione was staring out the window in Ginny's room with nothing but a blank expression.

"Ginny you know she only has our best interest at heart even if she can be really over bearing sometimes."

Ginny snorted with laughter at this last part.

"Ye I suppose you're right, it will be fun going back to Hogwarts though and it's better than staying locked up in here all year."

"Ye I know what you mean I'm starting to feel what Sirius must have went through being lock up in Grimauld place for so long.

"GINERVA WEASLEY AND HERMIONE GRANGER if you two don't get down those stairs with your trunks, ready to leave in the next 5 seconds I will forcibly bring you down myself."

"I think we better go, " they said in unison, talking and laughing they made their way down to a Livid Mrs.Weasley."

Walking down the stairs with trunks in hand the remaining Weasley clan and Hermione made their way into a ministry car that Arthur had gotten a loan of. The ride to the station was rather uneventful.

Ginny and Hermione walked through Kings cross with their heads held high, and made their way to platform 9 ¾, where they were to catch the train to bring them to Hogwarts.

Upon crossing the threshold between the muggle and wizarding world Ginny and Hermione Hugged Mr and Mrs Weasley trying desperately to hold the tears that were threatening to spill from their eyes as they said there goodbye's and boarded the train.

Time skip

Now back at Hogwarts the Girls made there way up to the great Hall for the Start of term Feast as usual. Thy walked through the entrance hall carefully dodging Peeves who had positioned himself over the entrance to the great hall with an armful of water balloons and dung bombs. He was waiting for any unsuspecting students that were unfortunate enough to stumble across him.

Walking quickly into the Great Hall they ran into Professor McGonagall who was making her way over to Peeves who was dramatically throwing a mixture of water balloons and Dung bombs at the tiny first years. Muttering a quick apology to the Girls, the Furious professor began scolding the poltergeist.

After the little problem in the Entrance hall was solved, and everyone was seated in the hall ready for their meal, tired after a long journey the headmistress stood and beckoned the first years in for their first ever sorting.

After what must have been hours, though in reality was only minutes, the sorting was finished and Gryffindor had acquired its new students along with the rest of the houses, Professor McGonagall stood from her seat at the high table to give her little speech,

"Now I Know you are all very hungry but before I let you relax and enjoy the Magnificent feast, which has been prepared, I would like to welcome Professor Elian, Professor Elian will be filling the position of Defense against the dark arts Professor as we don't seem to have much luck holding onto teachers for this position." She said looking around at all the students leveling them with a minor glare before continuing.

"I would hope you Treat her with as much respect you would any of the other professor's. Now I'm sure I have kept u long enough, good evening ……."

With that, the Hall erupted in applause partly for the Professor McGonagall's speech but more because nearly all the male population in Hogwarts were transfixed with the new Professor. Her long golden hair that reached her waist shimmered from the moon and stars above in the ceiling; she had Bright blue eyes as deep as the ocean though Ginny could have sworn she saw the Professor's eyes flash a golden color. She had somewhat of a silver glow about her that kept people transfixed on her without even blinking once.

"Ginny I think our new Professor is part veela." After Hermione had said this she turned to Ginny who's eyes were widening as realization dawned on her.

" She looks a lot like fleur doesn't she Mione, its really creepy, but it does explain why every boy in this hall haven't stopped staring at her" Ginny and Hermione shivered at the thought of having someone like fleur around all the time who without a doubt would be more trouble than help.

The girls talked back and forth like this through out the whole feast with Ginny stopping Hermione occasionally to talk about hair, make-up, and boys. When they got around to the matter of boys Hermione started crying into her hands she missed them so much, she felt as if a part of her was missing without them there beside her.

Harry, Ron and Ginny were the closest thing she had to family, after Death Eaters in her house killed her Parents. To make matters worse when they had found Hermione upstairs they had forced her to watch them slowly torture and kill her family one by one, before the Order came and found her, and took her straight back to Grimauld Place.

Now all she had left was Ginny, not that she wasn't grateful to her its just she missed everyone so much it was almost unbearable.

A Week later……………..

Hermione and Ginny had settled back into school life at Hogwarts, which was relatively normal. On their way to Dinner Monday evening a week of very tiring classes they were walking through Gryffindor common room when a timid looking young girl who seemed to be in her second year walked over to Hermione and Ginny Holding a piece of parchment out to the girls in one hand.

"Professor McGonagall asked me to give this to you before dinner." The young girl explained while pushing the note into Ginny's hand.

"Thank you, now run along or you'll be late for dinner." With that said the girl turned on her heel, exiting the common room as fast as her legs would carry her.

After Hermione thanked the girl for delivering the message, she turned to Ginny who had a look of confusion wrote across her face but opened the note anyway.

Miss Granger, Miss Weasley,

I would like you both, to meet me in my office after dinner. I have an important message

That I feel cannot be entrusted with any other student or teacher. All will be explained, too you at a later time. For now, I suggest you come to me as soon as dinner has ended.

Yours Minerva McGonagall,

Ps. the password is acid pops.

As Hermione and Ginny finished reading the last line, the parchment burst into flames and fell to the floor as nothing more than ash.

Both girls jumped as the note burst into flames but quickly recovered and made their way to dinner so they could see the headmistress.

"What do you think McGonagall wants to talk to us for, we haven't done anything, right Mione."

"I'm not sure, but I know we haven't done anything out of the normal, WAIT …. Maybe it has something to do with the order."

Realization dawned on both girls' faces as they made their way into the great hall and finding seats beside Lavender, Parvati, Dean and Seamus who were talking animatedly about Quidditch.

Later that evening the silver plates had been cleared and all the food in the great hall disappeared Ginny and Hermione took this as their cue to leave for the Headmistresses office.

"Acid pops" Hermione spoke quietly to the gargoyle as it jumped off the high pedestal on which it stood to allow them entry to the headmistress's office for their meeting.

Hermione and Ginny mad their way slowly up the spiraling staircase and where faced with the large pine door embedded with a silver Knocked in the form of a griffin. They had both been faced by this door many times during their years at Hogwarts, mainly for causing trouble or Order meetings, but now they had no idea what would be waiting for them at the other side of the door.
