LW: Hand up who wants the Stone (Several hands) Good because we have work to do and Diabound is looking for people to annoy. [Film version as shorter and easier]

Warning OOC Voldemort (He's just found his daughter again so justified)

Hermione Bella Riddle – Quest for the stone.

After the Exams

Harry: We need to get the stone. Tonight!

Hermione: Are you sure this is a good idea Harry?

Harry: Yes. Voldemort is gonna try steal the stone now that Dumbledore's gone. We'll meet back up here at 8. See you then.

Ron: You shouldn't come.

Hermione: Fine I won't. Perfect

At 7 three students arrived at the 3rd floor corridor; Draco, Pansy and Hermione.

Pansy: So is there any reason for doing this or is it just to one up Potter and Weasel?

Draco: Don't care, with Hermione we can't lose.

Pansy: You have a point there.

Hermione: Quiet! Now once we go in everyone aim for a head and cast somnum so we can gat past. Then we just adlib as we go along.

Draco: Which means ...

Hermione: Make it up.

P & D : Ohhh!

When the 3 Slytherins entered the chamber they found one bored looking Cerberus. Before they were noticed they quickly blasted the 3 heads with the sleep spell and climbed through the trapdoor. After falling for some time they landed on some sort of vegetation. Which seemed harmless enough until it tries to strangle you.

Hermione: Guys calm down, this is Devil Snare we need to stay calm.

Pansy: Easy for you to say, you don't show anything outside of the Slytherin common rooms.

Hermione: Stop resisting or you die.

Draco: Nice pep talk, sets quite a relaxing mood.

Hermione: Shut up. (Disappears)

Draco: Crap she's dead.

Hermione: No I'm not. Relax and you'll fall through.

Pansy: OK. (Disappears)

Draco: great, now I have to die alone.

Hermione: This isn't working, wait I've got it.

Pansy: What?

Hermione: Devil Snare hate's sunlight. Draco light your wand!

Draco: I'll try. Lumos

By the light of Draco's wand the plant recoiled and Draco fell through with a painful sounding thud.

Draco: Lucky we have a genius for a friend. Good on yea.

Next room

Draco: Why do I have to do it?

Hermione: You're the only one who knows how to fly.

Draco: Fine.

Hermione: (To Pansy) Also I think the brooms charmed so every other key attacks Draco once he gets on.

Pansy: Your evil!

Being always right Draco got swarmed by keys but still managed to grab the right key and throw it to Hermione. In the next room Pansy and Draco had a chance to shine, co-ordinating moves on the chessboard so none of them were in danger and quickly checkmated. Hermione thought the two of them could out play Ron given a chance to. When they reached the last room Hermione let Draco and Pansy accompany her within. What was standing there surprised them all. Standing in front of the mirror of Erised was a strange creature dressed like a jester with a feathered hat. She was very bony with the exception of her chest though that may just be the puffy material Hermione couldn't tell. As they neared they saw she was having a very animated (on her side) conversation with another bony creature in the mirror. His face was covered except for his left eye by a white mask, something the Slytherins saw also covered most of the woman's face down to her mouth. They were about to enquire as to who/what the woman was when they were interrupted by a cough at the room's entrance. Standing there, and now walking down the steps towards them was … Quirrell with an irritated scowl on his face.

Quirrell: Diabound MOVE! I need to see the mirror and your link to your brother is cancelling out the mirror's power

Diabound: Sorry Voldy! (Even her voice sounded cheerful and full of life)

Draco: Wait you're Voldemort.

Armityle: No stupid boy! The Dark Lord may be there but Quirrell isn't him.

Quirrell: Actually I kinda am. Anyone with a weak stomach look away now.

Voldy: Oh Shut up Quirrell!

Quirrell removes his turban and on the back of his head was Voldemort. His face seemed full of anger and pain, 2 things that obviously weren't helping his mood. Quirrell's head did a complete 180 and Voldemort was facing them, his red eyes looked like they were staring into their very souls. They were the same as the one's Hermione saw in the mirror that Halloween and still does before she reapplies the glamour, oh how glad she was she'd left her eyes as they were because they were the 1st thing the Dark Lord noticed from the group. The other thing was he was standing in front of 3 Death Eaters kids, his own included. Voldy ran over so quickly you could swear he'd apparated and was holding Hermione in a nearly back breaking embrace.

Voldy: Hermione, we thought we'd lost you. Bella was never the same after the event just ask Cissa. You don't know how good it is to see you, you've grown so much. But there's something very wrong with your appearance, ah Snaky will probably fix it eventually.

Draco: Dumbledork glamoured her.

Voldy: Thank you Mr. Malfoy, in that case Snaky's the only person powerful enough at the moment to remove it. So where are you staying?

Hermione: (Grumbles) With muggles

Voldy: WHAT! That mother ***** Dumble**** left you with muggles. Not even light wizards we could convert to our cause. No wonder Bella and I couldn't find you, we didn't have the power to check every muggle house in the country.

Hermione: Don't worry dad, Snaky's been keeping an eye on me as far as I can remember. And I'm in Slytherin and with people I'm sure I would have made friends with even if I'd been with you guys. Also dad Dumbledork wants me to be friends with Harry …

Voldy: Perfect. Your friendship with Potter could be very useful Hermione. Keep it up and you'll be able to keep Dumbledore off your back and still help me. Hermione look into the mirror and tell me what you see.

Hermione turned around and looked into the mirror. After a minute she saw it; her, unglamoured with 2 people standing beside her. The 1st she recognised because she'd seen her photo but Bella looked fresh, clean and happy not like she'd spent the last 10/11 years in Azkaban. The other one was an older gentleman with red eyes looking at her with nothing but joy. Hermione didn't notice she was crying till a tear had rolled down her check and hit the floor.

Hermione: I see me as I should and I see you and mum and you could've been! I don't know how to help you get the stone though.

Voldy: It's OK child, leave that to me. Unfortunately I know from Severus that Mr. Potter is on his way to stop me. He can't know you're my progeny so I'm very sorry for this, and as a dark lord you don't say it that often. Stupefy!

The spell was cast 3 times and as Diabound hid the children out of sight of Harry who would be arriving any moment; Voldemort and Quirrell started their attempt at recovering the stone from the mirror.

Great Hall – Several days later

The next day Hermione had woken up in the hospital wing accompanied by Draco, Pansy, and Harry. After Dumbledore had questioned them (and Hermione lied about her eyes being cursed by Voldemort) they were able to leave and go to the end of year feast.

Draco: Wow your dad is powerful, no wonder he's the dar… (Mouth covered by Pansy)

Pansy: Shut up Malfoy or everyone will know.

Draco: Slytherins are all Death Eater's kids, supporters/sympathisers or people who don't care about the politics so this is the safest house to be Hermione in.

Pansy: Fine.

Hermione: My dad's the Dark Lord and my mum's Bellatrix Black. Didn't see that coming when I started this year.

Theo: That's cool.

Another DEK: So you're the 'dark heir' our parents sometimes talk about.

Hermione: I suppose, actually yes I am!

Dumbledore: And so this year the cup would go to Slytherin with 472, but 1st I must award points for some major recent events. 50 points each to Harry Potter, Ron Weasley, Neville Longbottom for what they did down in the dungeons. Though I must also award 20 points to Draco Malfoy, Pansy Parkinson and Hermione Granger for being able to traverse the challenges as well. So I suppose it doesn't matter as Slytherin still win the House Cup once again.

The cheers from Slytherin were deafening and even Snape looked pleased with his house along with the silver trio. Draco, Pansy and Hermione were viewed as saviours of Slytherin after the awkward almost tying with Gryffindor.

Hogwarts Express

Some time later Hagrid brought all the 1st years to the train and the Silver Trio sat by themselves. Well they did until Harry and Ron found them, Harry sitting beside Hermione with Ron beside Harry and the other two Slytherins were pushed to the other side of the seats. It didn't take long for Draco and Ron to be at each other's throats quite literally actually, and Pansy while muttering about their stupidity tried to have a civilized conversation with Harry and Hermione. The train ride had never felt longer. When the train finally did arrive at the station Draco go off Ron and bounced out of the compartment followed by Hermione and Pansy, Harry had stayed behind to help Ron up. Standing on the platform waiting for them were James, Lucius and Narcissa Malfoy and Mr. and Ms. Parkinson. A bit away from them were Mr. & Ms Weasley with little Ginny. Draco and Pansy ran to there parents stopping a few feet away remembering what was meant to happen; Hermione was never told pure blood social rules so nearly tackled her god father into a hug. He was smiling though, a twinkle in his red eyes.

Lucius: So Draco, how was your year?

Narcissa: You were meant to write to us as much as possible.

Lucius: Don't worry Cissa, everything is fine and Draco is perfectly safe.

Hermione: So she's Cissa that dad was talking about.

Pansy: Mom, Dad this is my new friend; Hermione

Narcissa: (Hugs her) you look so different than I thought you would, and people say fairy God Mothers know everything.

Pansy: And we met her dad, don't know why his head could do that?

James: Blame Fran for that (Don't own Franken Fran) thought it would make things easier.

Then Ron appears and him with his family plus Harry walk over to the Malfoy's. James and Lucius flash everyone a 'play along' look.

Ron: Never thought you'd be hanging out with a muggleborn outside of needing to form being in the same house.

Lucius: You're hanging out with a mud blood?

Draco: Yeah Hermione.

Lucius: YOU! Are to never get within 20 feet of anyone in this family ever again.

Narcissa: And stay away from our son, we don't need him corrupted by people like you. (Malfoys leave)

Hermione looked devastated (not really) and though the Weasley's tried to comfort her (including Harry and excluding Ron) she just pushed them away and left with James both trying not to laugh until they'd passed through the barrier and back to their friends. The Malfoys had such happy faces and the other two 1st year students were on the floor laughing their eyes out.

Hermione: So?

Lucius: Snaky already told us everything as well as what Diabound told him about the 3 of yours meeting with Tom.

Draco: Tom?

Hermione: Voldemort's real name?

Narcissa: Yes Hermione, his name was Tom and yours is Hermione Bella after your mother Riddle.

James: So who's up for going to the manor?

Lucius: Fine let's go (Malfoys disapparate)

Pansy: See you later (Parkinsons disapparate)

James: Come on Hermione

Hermione: OK (Teleport)

Quite quickly the 8 of them arrived in the manor and the Malfoys got to know there niece and Snaky promised to both make the mirrors and drop in often [Hermione's staying with the Malfoys this summer and Dumbledore will be none the wiser]

End of 1st year TBC

LW: Well that was good.

Narcissa: Thanks for everything, my sister will be so happy.

LW: I know, infact that's what the 2 way mirror is for; Hermione met Bellatrix sort of.

Bella: Good enough for me. Hey kido

Hermione: Hey mom. (Hug)

Snaky: Ah bless. Well alls going well keep reading and the fun will continue
