Hermione apparated to St. Mungo's after she left Severus's cottage. She made her way to the greeter's desk. "I'm here to see Ginny Weasley." She said to the witch sitting at the desk. "She arrived here by portkey after the attack in Diagon Alley."

The witch looked up from her magazine and just looked at her; she then turned to one of the filing cabinets and pulled out a file. She quickly looked at the file before closing it and returning it to the filing cabinet. "Your relation to the patient?"

Hermione gritted her teeth. "Best friend." She didn't have time for this she had to know how her friend was doing

"I'm sorry you can't visit her. Miss Weasley is currently in intensive care only family can visit her." The welcome Witch explained to her.

Hermione clenched and unclenched her fists. "I don't care if she is in intensive care. I want to see my best friend this instant. You're going to tell me where she is this instant or-"

"Or what Miss?" The Witch asked her, sounding quite bored. "You're going to hex me?"

Hermione pulled her wand out and placed it down on the top of the counter, her hand gripping it tightly. "If that's what it takes to see her then yes." She threatened.

"Whoa Hermione easy." Someone from behind her said. "I don't think you have to hex her to see Ginny." She spun around and saw the Weasley twins. Their foolish grins wide across their faces. But their eyes were full of worry. Hermione hugged them. "Is she okay? Please tell me Ginny is okay."

Fred and George returned the hug. "She's fine, she just lost a lot of blood, the healers were able to seal up all the wounds. She might have a few scars but other than that she's going to be ok."

Hermione sighed in relief. "Thank Merlin, can I go see her?"

Fred grinned at her. "Of course, you silly girl. You're part of this family." He shot a glance at the Welcome Witch and she just rolled her eyes and went back to reading her magazine of Witch Weekly.

Fred and George quickly led her to Ginny's room in the hospital. When she saw her best friend lying on the bed she quickly ran to her side leaving the twins behind. She grabbed one of Ginny's hands and firmly squeezed it. She looked up at Mr. and Mrs. Weasley, they looked worried.

"Is she going to be alright?" she quietly asked.

Mr. Weasley put a reassuring hand on his wife shoulder and she brought her hand up to grasp his. "She should be fine, I'm grateful for whoever brought her to St. Mungo's so quickly, the healers said a few more minutes she would have been dead. She lost a lot of blood so it will be a while before she wakes up."

Hermione let out a sigh of relief. "I'm glad she going to be okay, but what about the others? Are they alright?"

"Yes, some of us received some serious injuries but we faced no fatalities. Kingsley was hit with a curse, Ron received a concussion and Mad-eye's arm got crushed but other than that everyone received a few bumps and bruises. But there were a few aurors that were killed and several Witches and Wizards were captured including Mr. Olivander."

Imagine it could have been worse if you didn't do anything to help them. Hermione thought to herself. Hermione felt grateful that she went to Snape about the truth and now he would give her information that could save tons of lives.

"And the death eaters?" she asked. "How many were captured? How many dead?"

"Five dead and seventeen captured, seven of which are part of you-know-who's-"

"Inner circle, yeah I know."

Everyone in the room looked at her suspiciously. Hermione frowned, great I had to go and say that, Hermione you are such and idiot.

"How did you know that, Hermione?" Mr. Weasley asked deathly quiet, his eyes narrowed.

Hermione snorted. "I know because I'm the one that freaking captured them, the ones of the inner circle were fighting together in a group. They went after a group of Muggle born Witches and Wizards and their families, so I went after them and took them down. I know they are part of the inner circle because Harry told me. He told me who was summoned to you-know-who after he was reborn." She explained to them.

Mr. Weasley opened his mouth to say something but was interrupted by Ginny's groan. "Ugh what are you guys shouting about? Could you all shut up my head is pounding." Ginny said as she weakly brought a hand to her head and tried to sit up.

Hermione gently place a hand on her friend's chest and lightly pushed her back down. "Easy Gin, you lost a lot of blood you have to rest, don't try to move okay."

Ginny groaned again but she didn't try to sit up again.

"I'll get a healer." Fred announced.

Hermione shakes her head. "No it's alright, she doesn't need a healer." Hermione made her way to the edge of Ginny bed and grabbed the clipboard containing the medical information of her friend and the potions that they had given her. Hermione frowned in concentration. "Let's see… they only gave her a small dosage of blood replenishing potion so she needs a full dosage this time." She mumbled to herself. As she made her way down the lists of potions her friend needed.

Hermione put the clipboard back where she found it and began rummaging through her bag and pulling out the potions that Ginny needed, placing them on a table next to Ginny's bed. "Could you guys help her sit up?" she asked no one in particular. Mr. and Mrs. Weasley helped their daughter sit up.

Hermione looked up as she caught the cooper smell of blood. The sheets on the bed were turning red. She quickly made her way over to Ginny and noticed that one of the wounds that the healer's sealed up was reopened. Hermione rolled her eyes at the poor work they did. She took out her wand and knitted the skin back together and dug a role of clean white bandages out of her bag.

She firmly wrapped the bandages around the freshly healed wound and Ginny looked at her confused. "So it doesn't open up again." Hermione explained, before returning to wrapping the wounds in bandages. She then returned to the table and grabbed the potions and helped her friend drink them.

After a few minutes, Ginny let out a content sigh and she sank back into her bed, quickly falling asleep.

"How did you know what to do 'Mione'? Harry asked her.

Hermione smirked. "I learned how to treat injuries from a book, several books actually. Books can be quite informative maybe you should try reading one some time." Several people in the room groaned and Hermione laughed. "Come on we should leave and let her get some sleep.

Mrs. Weasley nodded in agreement. "Yes, you children should return to headquarters, your father and I will stay the night and look after Ginny. It's been a long day so you all should get some sleep."

The Weasley children and Harry made their way out of the room. Hermione took one last look at her best friend and made her way to the door.

"Hermione." Mr. Weasley called after her.

Hermione turned around and faced him. "Yes?"

Mr. Weasley smiled. "Thank you."

Hermione returned the smile. "I would do anything for my friends, no matter what the cost is, if it keeps them safe." There was truth to her words and she wasn't just referring to healing. She literally meant what she said; she would do anything for her friends especially if it kept them safe.

Hermione made her way out of St. Mungo's and apparated back to headquarters where she was met with a tight hug from one worried father figure. "Hermione, where in Merlin's name have you been? You disappeared after the battle, I was so worried."

Hermione laughed. "I'm fine Remus, I was healing people after the battle and sending them to St. Mungo's if they need immediate attention. But then I noticed my wound and I came back to the headquarters and healed them. I also had to grab some extra potions to heal the injured."

Remus released her. "Don't you ever go off after a battle and not tell anyone where you're going." he lectured her.

Hermione laughed again. "Okay I don't need a lecture. Now if you will excuse me I'm in the mood for a nice shower and a change of clothes" She said and she sprinted up the stairs, Remus chuckled.

Remus went to his room and kissed his wife. He bent over and kissed her swelling stomach. "How are you love?"

"I was worried, I'm glad you're safe." She said as she brought one hand around his neck and brought the other hand to his face slowly caressing his cheek. He leaned into her touch and sighed.

"I hate to ask you love but did Hermione ever come back here earlier."

Dora looked at him confused. "No she didn't. Why do you ask?" she watched her husband's face drop, he looked devastated. She knew why. "She lied to you again, didn't she?"

Remus let go of her and collapsed onto their bed. He buried his head in his hands. "I don't understand why she suddenly started lying to me. She has never lied to me, never. Why is she starting now?"

Dora walked over to her husband and sat down next to his and embraced him in a hug, her hands slowly rubbing circles on his back. "Oh Remus I'm so sorry."

Remus buried his face into her neck. She could feel the wetness of his tears as they feel from his eyes. Dora was furious with the young Gryffindor but she wouldn't do anything for the sake of her husband.
