DISCLAIMER: I DO NOT OWN HARRY POTTER NOR ANY OF THE CHARACTERS. ONLY VICTORIA!

She had no idea how long she was out for. Coming awake, she immediately realized that she was in damp dark cell with only a tiny window to up high for her to see out of. Touching the surronding walls, she knew that three of the four walls were cement while the other was nothing but a ward of energy. Someone must have placed a charm upon the window cause there was no movement of light through it, so she had no way of telling if it was day or night. Only one person came and he, guessing by his height, never spoke to her. Just slid the tray of food towards her. Ha, food if thats what you want to call it, consisted of warm water and hard bread. Lovely. There was only one time that she attempted to talk to the guard when he was bringing her the food. She waited until he was right in front of the door before saying anything.

"Excuse me? I was wondering if you could tell me what day it is?"

The man stopped moving and she could feel his gaze uon her from under his hood. Completely grossed her out.

"What's in it for me?"

She scooted as far back as she could until her back hit the wall.

"Nothing you creep!"

The man laughed at her.

"Like I would ever dirty myself with a Mudblood."

She stuck her head up and glared at the man.

"Well Draco doesn't seem to mind."

The man just laughed and dropped the tray of food on the floor. The water spilled everywhere and the chunk of bread landed just beyond the ward, out of her reach.

"Opps."

That said, the man departed from the area, leaving Hermione there mourning the loss of the bread. Who knows how long has passed? She never asked the guard again. She was guessing that he only comes once a day, so at least seven days have gone by. She really wasn't worried. Harry would be looking for her and he would move Heaven and Earth to find her. That's how much faith she has in her friends. One day, the guard came with two others. This time there was no food. They simply disabled the ward and stood back.

"Follow me Mudblood."

"Why?"

They didn't answer just stood there as she unsteadily got to her feet and followed them. One guard walked in front of her while the last two walked behind her. Coming to a set of closed doors, the lead guard knocked.

"Enter."

The guard opened the door and led them in. Immediately, Hermione noticed several cloaked figures around a table loaded with food. Her mouth started watering the instant the aromas hit her nose. One of the guards pushed her near a chair but she didn't sit down. She won't sit down until she knows who's under the hoods.

"Why don't you sit down and join us Miss Granger?"

Why did that voice sound faintly familiar? She shook her head but before she could respond, the person spoke up again.

"Come, sit down and enjoy this wonderfully prepared food. Shame for it to go to waste."

Something about the voice had Hermione wanting to jump and do her every command. Before she knew it, she was sitting in the chair and a plate filled with chicken, mashed potatos and gravy, corn, you name it, it was within reach of her. Pumpkin juice filled the goblet in front of her.

"Who are you?"

"Eat. I'll answer any questions later."

So she did. She just finished a helping of trecle pudding and leaned back in the chair stuffed. That's kinda surprising that she wasn't sick considering all that they were feeding her was water and stale bread.

"The food was charm to give you nurishments Miss Granger."

"So who are you?"

The figure on the opposite end of the table reached up and pulled back her hood. Hermione gasped as long black hair fell down revealing Victoria Spellman. The other's on the table did the same, though Hermione didn't recognize them at all.

"YOU!"

Spellman raised an eyebrow before sipping from her goblet.

"What? Why?"

She shrugged her shoulder at Hermione's lack of words.

"And they call you the smartest witch of our generation. Pity."

Hermione stared at her, to which Spellman stared back.

"So tell me Miss Granger, how did you manage to find the Horacrux's that you three did? Surely there must be some sort of brains somewhere inside Potter and Weasely?"

Hermione narrowed her eyes at Spellman. That part of their journay hunting Horacrux's never made it public. They told no one about them.

"How do you know that?"

"I know many things Miss Granger."

"We did what needed to be done to take down a horrible tyrant! I thank Merlin every day that he is dead and in Hell where he belongs!"

Spellman laughed lightly.

"Oh Miss Granger, how I do love the foolish. Sleep now."

Hermione could feel the sleep coming over her unbidden. Furious at the reaction of hers, she blinked her eyes furiously several times before sleep came. Several hours later she came too and flung herself upright. Scanning the area quickly she noticed that she was once again back in her dorm at Hogwarts. What the hell? Grabbing her wand which was on her night stand where she always keeps it. She scrambled out of her room, faintly noticing that she was wearing a tank top and shorts, and ran over to Draco's room. Opening the door, she made it several steps before the sight in front of her stopped her in her tracks. What. The. Fuck? Laying there wrapped in each other's arms asleep was Spellman and Draco. She reached behind her, grabbed the closed thing to her which happened to be Draco's shoe and threw it at them. It hit Draco's shoulder, causing him to jerk awake. He glanced around and spotted her. His eyes narrowed in response.

"What the fuck do you want Granger?"

What was going on? Draco untangled himself from the bed, and only wearing a pair of shorts, pushed her out into the Common Room. He stood in front of the door with his arms crossed over his chest.

"What the fuck is that Draco?"

"Do not call me by my given name Mudblood. Do you understand?"

She was speechless for a moment.

"I believe I can call my boyfriend his given name."

Draco laughed. It was low and cold.

"Why would I ever want to dirty myself with a Mudblood?"

"Because you like me!"

"Granger, I would never like you."

She really had no more to say. If she stayed, she could end up cursing everyone there. Starting with that black haired lying bitch. Turning on her heels, she spun and left the Common Room. Striding through the corridors she made to griffindor tower in a record time. Stating the password, she entered and went up to the girls dorms. Ginny was just waking up and gatheriing her things for her shower.

"Ginny."

Ginny looked at her and smiled.

"Good moring Hermione. What brings you up here?"

"I caught my boyfriend in bed with another girl."

Ginny looked at her puzzled.

"Hermione, I didn't even know that you were dating anyone."
