Trudging back into the kitchen, I noticed some of the Order members still occupied the kitchen. I smiled politely to them. I reached to ice box and pulled out the pitcher of pumpkin juice. I sat the heavy pitcher down and grabbed a clean glass from the shelf. I quickly filled my glass as I felt someone approaching on my left side.

"Hermione, sweetie, there some apple cake left; if you would like to have some" Mrs. Weasley smiled down at me.

"I would like that very much. Thank you, Mrs.Weasley" I answered sweetly as I sat my drink down and move to follow Molly. I failed to notice a pair of eyes watching me.

I watched my frizzy hair angel move through the crowd of people. I watched her set her glass down. An opportunity presented itself. I move quickly; glancing around to see if anyone was watching me. Reaching into my pocket, I pulled out vial and emptied its contents into her drink. I silently moved away from her drink and began to chat with my least favorite person.

Artfully balancing a plate of apple cake, a glass, and a magic book, I carried them all to the kitchen table and sat down. Quiet conversations were all around me. I gobbled a couple bits of apple cake down before I cracked open my book. Settling on a chapter about goblins, I reached for drink. Quickly downing a couple gulps, I plunged back into my book. Suddenly, my tongue began to feel fuzzy and heavy. A wave of nausea crashed over me. Beads to sweat rolled down my forehead. The book I was reading fell from my hands. My vision became blurry. 'Oh God, what is the matter with me? I think something was in my drink or cake' I stumbled to my feet, knocking the glass of juice to the floor. I can barely make out people faces. I stumbled again and fell to the floor, closing my eyes. Dizziness encased my body. I felt no felt no pain as my body collided to the floor. I barely heard people calling my name. I opened my eyes again. Blurry figures danced in my sight.

I watched her lips rested on the outer rim of her glass; the cold liquid inches away from her lips. Finally, Hermione took a drink. Giddiness exploded in my chest as my outer appearance stayed emotionless. I envisioned the poison coursing through her veins. I watched her eyes dilate. Hermione suddenly shifted in her chair. I smiled. I watched her stumbled to her feet and then pitch to the floor. I heard Molly cry out. I rushed to the young girl's side.

"What happened?"

"She just collapsed"

"Poor thing"

"Molly, don't cry"

"Why didn't you help her, Snape? You were standing right there"

"I can not be bother, Black. She needs a mother's touch"

"Snillivus, you could have caught her before her head hit the floor"

Sighing, I scooped Hermione into my arms while listening to my best friend and Snape argue. I moved some hair out of her eyes. I smiled at my angel.

"Are you taking her upstairs, Moony?" Sirius said, moving towards me. Clutching Hermione closer to me, I nodded.

"Remus, are you alright? I know the full moon is close" Arthur asked.

"I'm prefect" I answered, coolly. "I'm going to take Miss. Granger to her room"

I felt my body being lifted off the floor. I couldn't speak. My tongue was too heavy. Objects and figures moved in and out of my sight as I felt my body being moved through the house. Suddenly, I felt my body being dropped onto a soft surface. Moving my head, I began to recognize some shapes. I was in my bedroom. I felt something press my body into the soft mattress. Cold air kissed my naked body as I felt my clothes being torn away. I couldn't move. I couldn't think. I couldn't see. Suddenly, I felt my innocence being torn away. A quiet tear rolled down cheek.
