Coming Back To LifeHermione Granger sat in her bedroom of the Heads common she shared with Draco Malfoy, surrounded by parchment, quills, ink wells and a VERY old history book from the restricted section.
Hermione had been looking down the back of the restricted section for a book that could help her with her essay from Professor Binns. She had come across an ancient looking book that was by itself on the bottom shelf. Thinking it was just what she needed, Hermione had carried the book to Madame Pince so she could check the book out. Hermione had not expected the librarian to squeak and look at the book with fear evident in her eyes. With a lot of persuading Hermione had finally checked the book out and rushed to her room. She couldn't wait to find out why Madame Pince was afraid of the book.
So here she was lying on her stomach on top of her bed amidst parchment, quills and ink. After reading the first two chapters, Hermione had forgotten about her essay and instead had started taking notes from time to time about Gods, Goddesses, powerful figures through history and powerful families. Hermione had noticed strange similarities between a few goddesses, some myths and legends of a hugely powerful woman with tattoos, created in time. It was fascinating but suspicious. When Hermione had finished reading the Malfoy family history she came across a small chapter at the end. At the top of the page was the word 'half-blood' scrawled across the right-hand corner. Hermiones' eyes widened. All the families had been pureblood! This family must have been particularly powerful to be added into the book considering the family was one of half bloods. As she read on her eyes got wider and wider until they were the size of dinner plates.
The Gaunt-Riddle Family HistoryThe Gaunt family was descendants of Salazar Slytherin. Marvolo Gaunt Senior lived with his daughter Merope and his son Morfin. There has been speculation of another daughter but no one has been able to confirm this. Marvolo Gaunt was taken to Azkaban charged with one account of manslaughter. During this year his daughter eloped with the son of muggle family, the Riddles.
Tom Riddle and his wife had four children. In order:
Marvolo Tom Slytherin Gaunt Riddle
Tom Marvolo Slytherin Gaunt Riddle
Laura Evelyn Emmiline Zahara Rose Slytherin Gaunt Riddle
Claudia Zara Zanthia Marie Grace Slytherin Gaunt Riddle
Morfin married pureblood witch, Karin Granger. The Grangers were not a well-known family and only a select few knew about the families' existence. She produced a pair of twin girls. In order:
Serene Elin Barielle Guenevere Slytherin Gaunt
Morgana Lucielle Hermione Slytherin Gaunt
21 years later Marvolo Gaunt died fresh out of Azkaban along with the mysterious deaths of Riddle Senior, his wife and Morfin who was attacked by Aurors.
Karin moved in with relatives (believed to be the other Gaunt child) and the Gaunt family ceased to exist.
Just before the Riddle family disappeared the eldest child, Marvolo ran away leaving Tom to look after the family. Weeks later the Riddle Twins were struck by lightning on Hogwarts grounds, disappearing without a trace. Tom Riddle disappeared days after his fathers' death. Merope Riddle had died a few years prior to Tom Riddle II death. Riddle II had left Merope for another woman who was a muggle.
"MOTHER FUCKER!" was the piercing scream of an hysterical Hermione.
