Draco looked at Hermione in a disgusted manner.
"You're who?"
"Carina...I-I think-" She repeated.
"You?! Out of all the girls in Hogwarts! You?! You're my sister?!" Draco pointed to Hermione.
"What-?! Sister?!"
It didn't make sense...Sister? Hermione Granger was an only child, not a sister...But then again, she wasn't Hermione Granger now, wasn't she? Her mind had done fifty gazillion cartwheels. It was all to confusing for the third-year to manage.
"Malfoy, you're out of your mind!"
Hermione's eye tinted with every word she spoke. The brown was fading, and was being replaced by silver. She no longer had a brown iris, the glamour had started to wear off again.
Streaks of blonde curled out of her scalp. It was happening again.
"You're just playing a trick on me to make me look dumb again," Draco replied but his facial expression showed a different story. Almost like he was scared.
"I swear, I did nothing. This has happened to me before!" Hermione exclaimed while examining herself in a mirror she conjured with her wand.
Both Draco and Hermione stared at each other with disbelief and confusion.
How could this be happening? I'm not Carina, right? Besides, I'm nothing like that horrible Slytherin.
Hermione took a last look at her half blonde, half brown hair, scooped up her things, and ran out of the library. Someone has to believe her now.
"Lucius, Carina is at Hogwarts. No need to worry about her being with Muggles." A woman rested her hand upon Lucius.
"I don't trust that Headmaster, Narcissa."
The woman sighed as she gazed upon a portrait of a young girl over the fireplace mantle. The girl was her beautiful Carina, wrapped in a silk fabric, coral pink. Her twinkling eyes brought tears to the woman's eyes.
She'll be home soon enough. I hope.
Carina, Carina, Carina, Carina, was the only thing on the parents' mind. They had though about her before, but it was different now. The moment they heard from Dumbledore that Carina was known to be in Hogwarts, the tension rose. They were so close to finding her, yet still searching. It frustrated mostly Lucius.
The woman closed her eyes. In her mind she saw vivid pictures of Carina as an infant. There was laughter from parents as two little babies lay flat on the floor. One was playing with his father's wand, while the other was staring onto a book filled with pictures and the occasional word.
A gentle smile appeared on the woman's face. But then her mind decided to reopen old wounds.
She recalled the man in the dark cloak snatching Carina from her hand at her own house. The face was of the man was unknown, but from the sound of his grunts, she knew it was a male. He hid the baby behind his cloak and disapparated, leaving the woman's face in terror.
The memory faded gladly. The woman though, was covered in shock and fear. She had also thought he had killed Carina, and would have took Draco too. Her worst nightmare had come to life. Carina was gone.
This was the first time I added to this story so I hope you like it. Joy did do some of it to, though. And like she said, this is all based on J.K Rowling's wonderful series and we are just fans (like all of you) writing our own versions of the story. So all the credit is on J.K Rowling!
