Bellatrix picked up Hermione while telling her, "yes my dear, your leaving the woods to come live with me." Hermione looked up at Bella in shock. Thinking that this was some kind of joke. "You're lying." Hermione screamed at Bella. "No one wants me, so why would you." Hermione questioned Bella. Bellatrix just looked on at the girl trying to think of what to say. "Hermione, I would never lie to you." Bella told her.
Mulling it over Hermione silently agreed with her. This woman hasn't attacked me yet, she thought. They always attack me. "I want to believe you, really I do but..." Hermione didn't know what to say. And Bellatrix thought about something. "What if I let you stay in the woods near my home, away from all these hurtful people. Safe and near some you could trust?" Bella questioned. Hermione didn't know how to answer. No one had ever been this nice and generous towards her before. So Hermione thought to herself there must be a catch some where. But where? Hermione questioned herself. While Hermione was thinking it over, Bella was also tuned in but the girl didn't know this.
So Bella might've sort of manipulated Hermione's answer to the one she wanted. "Okay." Hermione silently agreed and allowed Bellatrix to carry her way. The following day some people were surprised not to see the girl. So they went in search of her. No one, and I mean absolutely no one could find her. After another days search they stopped it wasn't really a loss to them anyhow.
But in a different place it was a whole different story. Laughter filled through out Black Manor. All the portraits were happy to have a child's laughter grace the halls once again. Bellatrix just couldn't help herself from laughing at Hermione, and Hermione in turn laughing with Bella. If anyone were to come into Black Manor they would be greeted with the musical laughter of the eldest Black and a young girl.
"Hermione, dear, come out come out where ever you are" Bella called out. Bella could hear the pattering of Hermione's feet. Also she could see quite a few of her family portraits silently laughing. Bella questioned herself of where Hermione could be. "Hermione come out please." Bella asked. And with out further ado Hermione was behind Bella pulling on her skirt to get her attention.
