Recap!

"Hermione I promise to find you no matter what it takes!" He yelled towards the back of the car. He watched as she nodded her head in understanding and waved at him goodbye.

MALFOY MANOR

Draco's eyes snapped open as he sat straight up in bed. Sweat coating his body as the dark green sheets clung to his muscular frame. His silver like gray eyes scanned the room looking for an intruder. Looking towards the clock he reads 4:30AM in a blinking green light. Running his hand through his hair he found that he had indeed been the victim of another one of those nightmares. Silently standing from his king size bed he began making his way to the restroom knowing that he would not receive the privilege of sleeping for the rest of the night. Analyzing himself in the mirror he noticed how drained he looked and the dark circles that were starting to form under his eyes.

"Bloody Hell." Draco said while preparing to take a shower. While turning the water on the room began filling up with steam his thoughts began to wander back to his dream. As he stepped into the shower and the hot water began beating down on him like rain he remembered his dream.

"Close your eyes Draco we have to keep our eyes closed!" a small dark headed little girl frantically yelled as they ran across the grand room Until her tiny body collided with the swinging kitchen doors and officially placed them outside of the room.

Her bright green eyes collided with his and she started running again as pearls fell out of her hair.

"Draco we have to hide! We can't be found! Where can we hide that no one knows about?" She frantically said to him her eyes brimming with tears. Running down the stairs located in the kitchen he dragged the little girl behind him. It was dark and nothing could be seen. Taking a deep breath and continued to run down the stairs.

"Ivy!" whispered as his gray eyes looked through the darkness for his faithful nanny.

Draco finished his shower and walked out into his chambers where he began dressing himself in a Dark green button up shirt, black slacks, and a black robe with dark green silk inside. He then walked to the window and began to stare outside looking at the full moon and the creatures that were able to roam through the night. His thoughts soon trailed back to his dream as he tried to grasp an image of her face to hold. He had suffered from these nightmares for almost 12 years and he was ready to understand them.

'Who are you little girl? Why can't I seem to remember who you are?' Draco thought to himself as he continued to look out the window soon to be interrupted by a Golden Owl landing on the perch outside the window with a letter.

The owl gazed at Draco with impatience and began flapping its wings at him. As he lifted the window the owl swooped in landing on his writing desk after dropping the letter in the leather chair. Walking towards the letter the owl did not budge as if waiting for a response.

"Are you to wait for me to respond?" Draco said with a playful smirk on his face. The owl responded by flapping its wings several times before settling back down.

"I take that as a yes then." As Draco unfolded the letter he noticed how official the letter looked and carefully broke the seal.

Dear Mr. Malfoy,

Over the past several years you have shown a dedication to your studies that not many other fellow students of yours have cared to. We believe that giving you the position of Head Boy for your Sixth & Seventh Years here at Hogwarts would be an opportunity that you wouldn't refuse.

There will be new accommodations for the Head Boy and Head Girl. Personal library, kitchen, bedroom, common room, and separate bathing chambers. We feel that implementing this new rule of Head Students living with one another will strengthen the houses.

We realize that you are surprised and we ask that you return to Hogwarts within the next 7 days. There are many things for you and your fellow head student to arrange regarding the arrival of the new students. The owl will wait for your response as we are arranging now for a carriage to transport you to the campus.

Sincerely,

Professor Albus Percival Wulfric Brian Dumbledore

(Headmaster of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.)

Draco smiled to himself writing his response elegantly.

'I shall accept the position of Head Boy. I am very honored that I will be the Head Boy for Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry for the next two years. I shall be ready in 2 days if you would please arrange for the Carriage to arrive in the early morning so that I will be able to have dinner at Hogwarts.'

He wrote while mentally congratulating himself for his intense curriculum finally paying off. He quickly folded the paper stamping it with black wax leaving an impression 'D.M.' and holding it towards the owl.

Draco watched as his response flew away into the sunrise. Turning on his heel he walked into the hallway, and heard harsh voices traveling down the hallway. He could barely make out the voices and he began to follow the echo's which led to the library. He stayed silent as he listened to the conversation that was being held and he soon realized that it was indeed his parents.

A book went flying across the silent study in which both the elder Malfoy's were sitting as their eyes clashed in an angry raging battle. Nacissa stood up ready to say something when she snapped her jaw closed and sat back on the leather sofa in front of her husband. Lucius silver eyes swirled with a mixture of anger and sympathy. As he rose from his seat and began to walk towards his wife and enveloped her in a bone crushing hug.

"Nacissa your anger worries me to the core. Do you truly think that I have not searched for her?" His words were whispered into her ear as tears slipped down the beautiful woman's face. She pushed him away as her anger rose to a level that the wall paper began to peel off the wall behind her.

"Lucius don't you dare lie to me! You can lie to me about everything else! Except my son! You will not lie to me and Lucius I will not let you lie to him any longer! You better find her before I start searching myself! He is going to remember her sooner or later and he will never forgive you Lucius." Fell from her lips in a rage as tears freely slipped down her face.

Draco pushed the door open and stood in front of his parents as he looked at both of them in disbelief. Gray eyes locked with silver ones and Draco shut the door behind him. He continued into the room where is sat down on the White bear skin rug. He had never understood why the rug had claws dug into the hardwood flooring. Shrugging it off he looked to his mother and calmly waved for her to return to her seat.

Lucius Malfoy took a seat on the leather sofa next to his wife and held her hand which shocked Draco. They never displayed public affection it wasn't the Malfoy way.

"Why are you both lying to me?" Draco said as his fingers traced over the soft fur of the rug. He closed his eyes knowing that his world was about to change.

"I have had nightmares my entire life about this girl saving my life. In my dream she is very brave and smart. We are close in my dream almost as if she was my best friend!" His eyes dropped to the floor and then back up at his parents with a glare.

"Her green eyes haunt me and you both are LYING TO ME!" blasted from his core as he finally lost his patience. Standing up he walked to stand in front of his father. Handing the letter he received only a few minutes ago to his father.

"What is this?" Lucius questioned his son while looking at the parchment with confusion.

"This is the letter I received notifying me that have been chosen for the position of Head Boy for the Next two years at Hogwarts. I have accepted the position and will be leaving in only a few days." He said barely above a whisper as he clenched his fists.

"Draco we are very proud of you." His mother praised with her biggest smile. Lucius kept his eyes down as he smiled a small smile.

"Her parents were killed Draco and she was put in to hiding." Lucius said in a sudden instant with no preparation. So quickly that Draco had to step back from the impact on his heart. Draco watched has his mother had a break down and how her tears began to sparkle as he found out the news.

"What is her name?" Draco said without hesitating. He allowed his eyes to battle with his fathers.

"Her name has changed Draco but many years ago it was Hermione." Lucius said with tenderness that Draco had never heard.

"Hermione Lestrange." His mother quickly added behind his father as her hands came to rest on her lap. Draco felt shock he had never been so hurt and this betrayal was to strong for him at the moment.

"Hermione Lestrange." Draco said with a single tear slipping down his face as his heart began to bleed for the girl he had always dreamed about. His eyes locked with his father as he stood up and punched him across the face. To his surprise Lucius did not retaliate with a counter attack.

"Son I am sorry. She was released to her Aunt, and the Aunt placed her in to hiding. I had no intention of separating the two of you. You are to be married to one another. Do you both think of me as being such a cruel man?" Lucius said as he stood up and walked out of the room leaving behind two very shocked individuals.

"Mom, do you have a picture of her or anything of her!" His frantic plea made his mother cry even more. She nodded her head and looked at him in the eyes.

"I will have to look for it but I will send it to you as soon as I find It." her last words to Draco for the evening.

MUGGLE LONDON

Hermione sat reading 'The Tragedy of Hamlet' under a willow in her back yard. The wind was blowing gently allowing the willow tree to dance in the breeze. Her heart fluttered when she was close to this tree and she only knew that it had been a gift from her Aunt. It was a beautiful day at the Granger Manor which lay only a few miles outside of the big city. This place was famous for its "Haunting" however Hermione had never been spooked by anything creature that lived here.

Smiling to her self as she continued to read as her hair seemed to blow gently in the breeze dancing with the willow tree. Soon she placed her book to the side as she closed her eyes to take a quick rest to enjoy the peace that this wonderful place offered her and soon was awoken by an owl jumping on her head.

Bright green eyes fluttered open as they focused on the black owl that was standing on her head. She smiled and held her hand up for him to come down. She giggled as he stepped onto her hand with excitement.

"Hello friend are you here to bring me a surprise?" She said in a sweet tone that the owl seemed to appreciate. He dropped the letter into her hand that his beak had been holding. Hermione smiled at the bird and placed him in her lap. She began to open the letter when she noticed the intricate detailing.

Dear Mrs. Granger,

Over the past several years you have shown a dedication to your studies that not many other fellow students of yours have cared to. We believe that giving you the position of Head Girl for your Sixth & Seventh Years here at Hogwarts would be an opportunity that you wouldn't refuse.

There will be new accommodations for the Head Girl and Head Boy. Personal library, kitchen, bedroom, common room, and separate bathing chambers. We feel that implementing this new rule of Head Students living with one another will strengthen the houses.

Sincerely,

Professor Albus Percival Wulfric Brian Dumbledore

(Headmaster of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.)

She could not contain her excitement as she hugged the owl gently to her chest. Grabbing her quill she quickly responded.

'I accept! I accept! I Accept! I shall be ready to leave for Hogwarts in the morning. Thank you so much for this opportunity! I look forward to arranging events with my fellow Head Student! –Hermione Granger'

She signed her name elegantly and quickly folded the paper and sealing it. Turning her green eyes to the owl she gently touched its head.

"Will you please return this to Dumbledore and also come visit me again one day?" Hermione gently said with a smile as the owl flapped its wings a few times, and flew off into the sunset with her response.

Standing she walked into the Manor looking for her parents whom were currently cooking dinner. Hermione entered the kitchen glowing with excitement. She told them about the letter, her hard work finally paying off, and the opportunity that this was. Smiling she told them of the doors that would now open for her and now she would be able to study in the Restricted area of the Library.

"However I will be leaving tomorrow." Hermione said with sadness as she realized the time with her family would be cut short. There was silence in the Granger home for the rest of the night.

Soon morning arrived and Hermione was standing at the front gate of the manor waiting for the Carriage. Her parents hadn't been home when she awoke this morning, and she knew that they were upset with her. Her thoughts were interrupted when the Carriage pulled in front of her. Looking back towards the manor she notice how empty it looked and knew that she would probably never come back.

MALFOY MANOR

Draco stood waiting for the carriage as it rounded the corner and came to a halt in front of him. Looking up as he saw another person was inside of the Carriage. He stepped into the carriage when his eyes came into contact with bright green ones. Draco sat across from her as he looked at her closely. He noticed that her hair was long, silky, black, and curled at the ends. This girl had a face like a porcelain dolls and she was wearing a white dress with a black robe clinging to her form as she sat reading a book. He couldn't stop staring at her as he realized his heart was fluttering.

"Good Morning Malfoy." Fell from her perfectly glossed lips as she flashed him a smile and he continued to study her features. The truth is he had never really had a chance to look at her before today. Potter along with that Weasley fellow seemed to be very protective of her. Almost to the point of locking her up like Rapunzel which was a story his nanny was fond of.

"Hello Granger." Draco said with astonishment at noticing she looked like a pure-blood in this moment. Their eyes locked and Draco felt a static in the carriage that he simply couldn't ignore. Then they settled into a comfortable silence.

Draco closed his eyes as his mind began to wander back to the conversation with his parents in the library two days prior.

"Hermione Lestrange." His mother quickly added behind his father as her hands came to rest on her lap.

Hermione sat watching him sleep as they continued on their journey in silence. Green eyes flickered towards the blonde haired boy tracing his features with her eyes and a flash came before her eyes.

"Hermione I promise to find you no matter what it takes!" yelled a blonde haired boy towards the back of the car. He watched as she nodded her head in understanding and he waved back.

Hermione's eyes snapped open as she lunged forward waking herself up. Trying to catch her breathe she closed her eyes until two hands came into contact with her shoulders pulling her up from the floor of the carriage.

"Are you alright Granger?" Draco asked as he helped her to sit back in the seat across his. Silver eyes clashing with green ones as she nodded slightly and leaned back into the seat.

"I think." Hermione whispered as she looked out the window with her hand on her chest as if trying to slow her rapid heart beat.

'What was that?' Hermione asked herself.

"So you are the Head Girl for the next two years?" Draco asked trying to change the subject or at least take her mind off of whatever she was thinking about.

"Yes I am. You are the Head Boy I assume?" She replied with a smile as she rested her head against the pillow beside her.

"I will be. Congratulations on being selected. You must have studied very hard?" Draco told her with a friendly expression on his face.

"Congratulations as well and yes I studied very hard to be selected. I never slack off on my studies. I assume you are the same way. I have heard that you are quite a playboy though." She said with a smirk and she watched as the friendly expression dropped off his face after.

"I was just joking Malfoy. I don't really worry about rumors. The Slytherin Prince can do whatever he wants. It's none of my business." She said with a genuine smile.

Draco's face broke out into a grin when he realized she was a kind person. Perhaps running the school with her would be fun, exciting, and full of memories for him before he returned to being a hostage within his own home.

"Since we are going to be working and living together I think that we should loose the formalities." Draco suggested shrugging his shoulders at her. She tilted her head to the side in question as to what he meant.

"We are on a last name basis and its going to get old really fast. Do you have a name other than Granger?" slipped from his mouth as his gray eyes clashed with bright green ones as she displayed a beautiful smile. Holding out her hand towards him as if to shake he took it within his much larger one.

"It's Hermione Granger" She said shaking his hand as both of their eyes rolled back and they shared a memory for the first time.

"I don't know how to be a friend. I never had a friend before. Shouldn't I know your name?" he said while holding his hand out towards her. Her smile stretched from ear to ear and her toothless grin made him return the smile.

"It's Hermione." She said shaking his hand in a dignified way. Her bright green eyes glittering like emeralds making Draco's heart skip a beat.

Draco let go of her hand and sat back in shock as she did the same. Looking at her with a mixture of emotion as his eyes closed for a moment.

"Where are you from Hermione?" Draco asked in confusion as she looked at him questions.

"I'm from London my family lives in Muggle London." The statement barely made it past her lips as she fainted towards Draco.

The carriage soon stopped and they were greeted by the many Professors of Hogwarts. Dumbledore escorted them directly to their accommodations. Dumbledore explained that only Himself, Professors, Hermione, and Draco were able to enter this wing of the school.

The colors were a mixture of different shades of green and golden detail. The common room featured a fireplace, leather sofa, and artifacts from around the world. Draco noticed a gourmet kitchen and two restrooms on either side of the common room. Dumbledore explained that one was from each of them as well as separate sleeping chambers.

"I hope you rest well and you both are going to be very busy for the next several weeks." Dumbledore said with a smile as he apparated to a different location.

TWO WEEKS LATER

It had been two weeks since Hermione had shared a memory with Draco. They never brought it up because neither one wanted to discuss the situation. Her nightmares were more frequent and very graphic. Draco had taken a lot of the tasks upon himself knowing she was going through something. He asked her to tell him and she felt that it was a personal thing. On the other hand they were settling in to the new life they shared.

Hermione looked up from the stove as Draco walked into the kitchen sitting down at the table. She took the spatula a flipped the last pancake smiling at the fact of how much better she was getting at doing this. Sliding the pancake on the plate with the others she placed them on the table then sat down and began to place things on her plate.

"I heard you scream last night. I think its time you pay a visit to Dumbledore Hermione. Maybe he can block the dreams." Draco said while pouring orange juice into both of their glasses. Her green eyes watched him as she slumped over and sighed.

"School starts tomorrow and the other students will be arriving. Your right and Ill go talk to Dumbledore about blocking them." She said while taking a bite of bacon and began walking towards Dumbledore's office.

Hermione walked slowly tracing her hand on the stone wall as she walked by. After 20 minutes she noticed Dumbledore waiting for her to arrive in the hallway outside of his office chambers. He waved for her to follow him and she did as he said. Until they were securely inside of the office with the door latched behind them. Hermione sat comfortably on the sofa in the seating area.

"To whom should I pay the honor of your visit?" Dumbledore said kindly as he handed her a warm cup of tea and took a seat across from her. She smiled at him and looked down.

"I have been having nightmares as off late and needed to know if you had a way of blocking them." After she said this she lifted her eyes to discover the horrified look on Dumbledore's face. Standing he walked to his desk grabbing his wand and coming to sit in front of her once again. Hermione's eyes looked at him in question and began to say something when he cut her off.

"Hermione there are many things I now realize that you are not aware of." His wise eyes calmly stared at her face.

"Headmaster?" slipped from her lips as she began to panic.

"I am going to start from the beginning and I want you to remain silent until the end." He calmly replied towards her waiting until he knew she understood to once again speak.

"When you were born a war was blooming and your parents were at the center of it. They loved you very much and having you was the best gift they gave us." Dumbledore took a sip from his tea as he began to talk once again.

"Voldemort was raging a war and to protect you they joined him in this quest killing many families. Your mother came to me begging me to hold a few things for you and give her a favor." His mouth turned downwards as his aura became darker. Hermione look very confused and he knew this had to be done and therefore he continued.

"The favor was one that I granted her. I took an oath to only inform you when it was absolutely necessary and that I would remove the spell. Are your nightmares involving a blonde haired boy?" His words hit her like a thousand knives and she nodded.

"This boy is Draco Malfoy. You were betrothed at birth to one another." He then paused only to take a sip of tea before continuing. Green eyes displayed to him the fact that she was confused, and hurt.

"Your parents asked me to hide you if they were killed. Your mother requested that I bind all of your extra abilities as well as Draco's other than the necessary amount required to attend Hogwarts. I have also hidden your true appearance and I am sorry that you have been lied to." Hermione's tears slid freely down her face.

"Who were they?" could be heard coming from Hermione but she did not recall saying it.

"Bellatrix Lestrange is your biological mother. Hermione the stories that people tell of her are not lies but I will tell you that she loved you with all of her heart. Her last moments alive were defending Malfoy Manor while you and Draco ran to hide with the house elves." Dumbledore sat next to her after saying this.

"Your Aunt sent you to live in the Muggle-World with your mother's best-friends. They have raised you for the past 12 or so years. Do not blame them Hermione for they were showed the importance of hiding it from you. They were told to always tell you they were your biological parents. Their love for you is so vast that my heart grows warm." Dumbledore finished saying before drinking the rest of his tea. Hermione look at him and finally made her voice known.

"I want to know who I am. I feel that this has been truly unfair to me as a human being. Even so knowing that it was for my protection still doesn't ease the pain. Remove the spell and I want to be re-sorted with the first years tomorrow." Dumbledore's eyes showed confusion." So she explained herself further while keeping her hands in her lap.

"I was sorted as Hermione Granger and that is not who I truly am. I already feel different knowing what you have told me and I am done lying to everyone now. Remove the spell and agree to resort me tomorrow in front of the entire school. I want to see the reactions on their faces and see who truly will stay by my side." Her words seemed to echo off the walls as Dumbledore looked on in sadness. He watched as she broke down in to tears and then he lifted his wand.

"Hermione, I agree to your terms. I want you to know this however. As soon as you surface you will no longer be considered the Gryffindor Princess. You will loose many friends." He said placing a hand on her shoulder but you will always have us.

"I want to live the rest of my life as the person I was intended to be from the beginning. Friends that I loose won't be missed because we weren't meant to be friends in the first place. The past 12 years of my life have been a lie and I am ready for that lie to end. I want to be Hermione Lestrange. Please remove the spell Dumbledore." Hermione leaned in to him as if he were her grandfather as she cried.

"Hermione this is going to be painful for you as well as for Draco." Hermione nodded her head in understanding and she stretched out on the couch as Dumbledore began to remove the spell which had held Hermione Lestrange hostage within her own body.

Hermione's screams could be heard echoing through the castle as well as a faint sound of Draco's screams following hers. Dumbledore worked for hours removing the many spells used to confine them. Many hours ago their bodies resorted to temporary shutdown due to the pain and now it was time for them to rest.

Dumbledore look at the face of Hermione Granger one last time as he removed the final spell which caused her appearance to change from her child like features into the true Hermione Lestrange.

He realized that soon she would be re-sorted and perhaps the war was just beginning. Dumbledore apparated her to the common room she shares with Draco. Placing her gently on the leather couch he sealed the room from the outside world as he left to prepare for the arriving students in 13 hours.
