Mom and Dad,
How's life been treating you? Things here have become a little strange. It all started when this boy, Draco Malfoy, said my parents weren't who I thought they were. Professor Dumbledore told me that indeed my parents were wizards, and Professor McGonagall confirmed that by adding that they were very powerful and highly respected in the wizarding world. Why didn't you tell me? Here I am in my 6th year at Hogwarts, finally fitting in with the kids who were raised by magical families, when I find out that I could have lived my entire live this way.
Your daug-- Sincerely yours, Hermione
Hermione borrowed Hedwig to send the letter to her, parents? Guardians? Friends in the muggle world? She wasn't sure what they were to her now, but she told Hedwig it was important for whoever they were to get the letter as soon as possible.

"Hey Mudblood! Or Should I say pure-blood!" It was Draco, who else. "Now that we know the truth about your mysterious past, what do you say to us getting together? It's only natural for the most handsome guy in the school to have the smartest girl on his arm, don't you agree?"
"On my mother's grave, Malfoy!" She replied sharply.
"Too bad you don't know who your mother really is, Granger. But I do."
He knows? How could he possibly know? Hermione's eyes swelled with tears as she stormed her way to the Gryffindor common room. Once there, she grabbed Crookshanks and collapsed into an armchair by the fire. She sat for a long time, just staring at the fire.
Suddenly there was a rustling behind her, which send a chill through her entire body. Slowly she turned to see what it was, and was relieved to see it was only Trevor, one of the remaining kittens. Then it hit her, Draco Malfoy knew who her parents were, because of the Exertus Contradico potion! How could she have been so stupid not to have realized! She stood up quickly, forgetting about the sleeping cat on her lap, who fell to the ground with a quiet growl, and headed towards the Potions classroom.

"And what may I attribute this honor, Miss Granger?" Hermione was startled by the voice, which came from Professor Snape who was sitting at his desk near the front of the room. She hadn't seen him, and was quite nervous about his presence.
"Oh! Professor Snape! Funny meeting you here! Nice weather were having, don't you agree?" She nervously made her way to the potions cupboard, only to be blocked by Snape.
"Miss Granger! I don't have a clue what you could possibly be up to, but I assure you that I will inform Professor Dumbledore immediately!"
"There's no need, Severus." Professor Dumbledore was standing in the doorway of the classroom, with a letter in his hands. "Miss Granger, I think you should read this. It may help solve some of your questions regarding your situation."
