"Again" yell Voldemort, sitting in his big black Wood chair, it almost look like throne, he knew this was child play for him, but for some twisted way he kind enjoy watching this poor child suffer, of course he had Heard the stories of Harry Potter and his two best friends, the Weasley kid that came from a pure blood family of traitors and the mud blood that every call her the smartest witch of her age, "Blasphemy" Voldemort thought, he was the smartest wizard to ever exist in Hogwarts, surely this little girl wasn't match to him, but he was intrigue by her, "How somebody so small next to him, had manage to destroy all the plans he ever tried against Harry Potter?" keep thinking Voldemort, he came from his thought when he heard her scream
She was lying in the wood floor trying to catch her breath and trying to stop the tears that were falling, she was lying in a pool of her own sweat from all the trashing and shaking and scream, she was in front of Voldemort, Dolovoh, Malfoy and Bellatrix, how was more than enjoying torturing her. Hermione couldn't believe it how somebody could be so evil and with such a sick mind
She tried to calm down, to get her hear focus before Voldemort try to use Legilimens on her, she was so grateful for the DA lessons, she was grateful that Harry took the time to teach them Occlumency, you never know when it would come in handy, at the thought of her best friend, Hermione couldn't help but let the tears fall, she hope that this sacrifice she was willing to do help him in his fight, she hope her death of whatever was going to happen to her didn't destroy her Voldemort fist came crushing in the chair, making the arm of the wood chair to crack from the force, he was frustrated, he keep trying to enter her mind and see what she was hiding from him, what wasn't she telling him, he try at first why her wide awake, but after a week he realized she was stronger than she look and that she was smarter than he thought, then Bellatrix suggest that maybe with a week mind he would succeed, so he agree with Bellatrix, he knew that Bellatrix was enjoying the torture, that was how she always like to play since they were kids, but every time Bellatrix stop using the crucio curse on her and he try to enter her mind, she block it really fast, she start thinking of a big brick wall and nothing else, he was tired he try doing it at the same time as Bellatrix had the Crucio curse on her, but that only cause more damage since he felt her pain, for the first time he was desperate, if he keep using the Crucio curse or any other torture spell it will bring her to madness and then she was going to be no use to her He stand up and walk towards her, he kneel next to her and in a very danger way he said
"You know I'm going to win, soon or later, you'll help me destroy Harry Potter" and in that moment her Hermione turn her head and look him straight in the eye and said"You wish",
making Voldemort to stand up and walk out of the room Hermione thought it was over, that one of the maids would come and take her to her cell, but that wasn't what happen, the minute Voldemort left the room Dolovoh came close and kick her in her left side, she cry and tried to get away from him but that only cause Dolovoh to laugh and grab her hair pulling her up to stand in her own two feet
"I sure love it when your feisty" he said slamming her against one of the Dolovoh. Hermione head was throbbing, when she Dolovoh big ugly wolf hand came up in the air, he was going to heat her hard in the face, but thank god Narcissa Malfoy just step inside
"Dolovoh, what are you think you're doing?" said Narcissa Malfoy standing in front of Hermione,
"Teaching her a lesson" said Dolovoh
"Did Voldemort told you you could do that?" ask Narcissa,
"No" said Dolovoh narrowing his eyes,
"So the only who's authorized to "teach her a lesson" is my sister or Voldemort himself" said Narcissa with the most stern voice she could manage, she step aside and gesture one of the maids to come get her and take her to her cell, which she did with Narcissa following her close behind Once inside the cell, the maid put Hermione in her make up bed, which cause Hermione to wince from the kick she received from Dolovoh, she didn't realize that Narcissa Malfoy was still there
"Do you feel anything broken?" ask Narcissa kneeling besides her, when she reach her hand to try to see Hermione injury, she flinch causing Narcissa to said to her "Relax, I'm not going to hurt you, just let me see" Hermione close her eyes and remove her hand from her injury, so Narcissa pull up her shit just a little bit to see her ribs, which her badly bruise, being as gentle as she could she touch Hermione's rib to see if they were broken, she was thankful when she realize they were no inner damage, when she pull back Hermione's shirt back, she notice she was crying and trembling, and Narcissa hearts broke at the sight of this small child trying to survive in a battle that was bigger than her, Narcissa stand up to exit the room
"Thank you" whisper Hermione Narcissa turn around and felt so bad for her
"Rest, I'll be back with some food" she said closing Hermione's cell and moving as fast as she could, she knew that the poor girl need rest and some food in her body if she was going to heal, she need sleep, Narcissa put a sleeping potion in her water, she pry that Voldemort or Bellatrix didn't think about looking for her in the middle of the night, that was how the work, just when there victim or whoever was down there was getting comfortable they would wake up and begin there horrible tortures on the person, that was nobody survive for more than a few weeks and Narcissa didn't want that, she remind her so much of her son, so scare and naive of the world horrors till they stand in the middle of it all and how she was going to do everything she could to keep that girl alive without risking her family When the tray of food was ready, Narcissa took it and decided she was going to take it to Hermione herself in case she came across with Bellatrix, or Dolovoh or even Voldemort himself, so she went down tours the cells, when Hermione heard footstep her whole body began shaking and her breath quickening
"Please, please god, I can't not anymore not now" thought Hermione as more tears when down her face, she closed her eyes, she was to scare to see who it was Narcissa stood in front of Hermione's cell and put the tray down and push it inside her cell
"There you go" said Narcissa. Hermione open her eyes and sit up she look from Narcissa to the tray an back biting her lower lip, her stomach growl from the hunger, but she didn't move, she didn't trust Narcissa, sure she help her with her injure but she couldn't trust her, she bet this was one of Voldemort sick games Narcissa saw the confusing in the girls face and realize what she must be thinking
"Go on, Take it, I promise it's not poison or anything" said Narcissa pushing Hermione's tray further inside the cell, and still Hermione didn't move
"You can trust me" said Narcissa looking Hermione in the eye and trying to be as honest as she could,
"Can I?" ask Hermione,
"Yes you can" said Narcissa,
"Why are you doing this?" ask Hermione, she was scared, and she had every right to be, the hole time she's been there, nobody was nice to her or risk their lives for hers, and specially Narcissa Malfoy
"Because I don't want you to die" said Narcissa standing up,
"Why?" ask Hermione,
"Because none of this is your fault, or Draco's, or even Harry's" said Narcissa smiling at Hermione, at the sight of this Hermione power melted and she crawl tour the tray and start eating, and fast like she hadn't eating anything for a couple of months
"Easy now, we don't want you to get sick" said Narcissa,
"Sorry" said Hermione with her mouth full,
"Don't worry, just finish everything and then go to sleep" said Narcissa walking away from the cell, she had been there a long time and somebody will notice her absent
"What about the tray?" ask Hermione
"Don't worry, will disappear once you finish", said Narcissa and start walking up the stairs, Hermione watch her go and keep eating, once she was full and drank all the water she could manage she crawl back to her intent of a bed and lay down, a worm feeling start spreading through her body, making her feel calm and sleep start winning the battle, and for the first time and even if it was a little bit, Hermione felt happy and she closed her eyes and went to sleep …
...
All of them waited in Gryffindor Common room, they were all there, Harry, Ginny, Neville, Padma, and specially Ron, they were all there, just waiting, Hermione's parents arrive in the morning to talk to her daughter and she was going one, at first Ron was surprised to see them, Hermione look exactly like her dad, but she had here mothers eyes and her hair, they were both really smile, at the sight of her Hermione's parents, Ron felt really sad, he realized he really didn't know anything about Hermione and her life out of school, what she like to do, did she had any friends apart of Harry and him, and now it was to late to try to figure all about her, she was leaving, right this moment Hermione was talking to her parents and McGonagall to see if they could persuade her to stay and finish her year
Ron felt tired, just yesterday he was bagging at Hermione's door, asking her to let him come inside and talk, he keep yelling, but still no response from her, he was being so loud McGonagall was call to see if she could calm her, but he refused, at this sight McGonagall ask him to come with her to drink some tea to see if they could figure a way to help Hermione and convinced her to stay, obviously Ron had to tell McGonagall the hole story and how he felt towards her, and beg her to help him and do something to get Hermione to stay
But McGonagall knew better, she try to calm him and making feel better, telling him that this wasn't his fault, that everything will be alright, that knowing Hermione, one week in her house would drive her mad and she was going to come back to finish her year, after all she was very discipline and according McGonagall she wasn't the type of person that stared something and didn't finish it so after giving Ron a potion to relax she send him to his room.
But he didn't make it that far, he stay in the common room, crying and whispering her name, why was she doing this, she couldn't leave, he won't be able to survive it
Back to the present time, Harry keep looking at Ron sitting in the couch without saying a word, he was worried for his friend, and for Hermione, but no matter how angry he was at Hermione for putting them in this situation, after all she was leaving them both, but he felt guilty, it was Hermione, if she was doing this it was because she was desperate and really need to get away from all of this, perhaps all those years of fighting and facing death finally had catch up with her, and to point Harry understand, she had choice to help him, and she was brave because of it, so it didn't matter how angry or upset Harry was or even Ron, they both need to be supportive of her decisions
After half hour later , they heard footsteps coming down the stair, causing everybody to stand up, Hermione's parent where coming down the stairs, at the sight Ron hearts grow five inches and he was happy but just for a second, because behind them Hermione was coming down followed by her trunk, everybody look at Ron and Harry, they just stud there looking at Hermione,
"Well, students, Miss Granger decided she is going home for a little way, so she can get better" said McGonagall putting a hand in her shoulder, but Hermione didn't look up, she just keep looking down to the floor,
"Miss and Mister Granger, why don't you follow me so she can say good bye to her friends" said McGonagall gesturing the towards the entrance of Gryffindor common room After they walk out, they just all stud there not knowing what to say, Ron of course still couldn't believe it, so Harry was the one who broke the silence,
"So you're really leaving?" ask Harry
"Yeah I guess I am" said Hermione looking up straight at Harry
"I see, well I hope you get well soon and come back" said Harry walking up to her and giving her a hug "Ill miss you" said Harry to her ear
"Me too, take care, okay?" said fake Hermione, before walking towards Ginny and giving her a hug, she did the same with Neville and Padma, before she walk up to Ron, who was the last one near the entrance of the common room, so fake Hermione walk up to him and looking straight in the eye she said: "Goodbye Ron" before walking past him and walking out of the common room
Everybody was shock to say the least, Hermione wasn't like that, no matter what problem she had with Ron she cared about him and now it looked like she didn't gave shit about him or what happen to him, he dint now what to do, he was shock, the girl who stud there in front of him and looking up to him wasn't Hermione, his best friend, the girl he loved and he refused to believe it, so he turn around and star running after her, this wasn't over, he wasn't going to let it happen
"Ron!" call Ginny, going after him,
"Let him go" said Harry grabbing Ginny's hand,
"But, it won't do any good" said Ginny looking from Harry to the door.
"I know, but that's what he needs" said Harry pulling Ginny towards the couch to seat in his lap, The moment they were alone Ginny start crying, and Harry couldn't help to let a tear escaped from his eyes, that was he best friend, the person that stand by his side no matter what, and now she was gone, and he couldn't do anything to stop it, something in his mind told him that it will be a long time till see Hermione again, but he will wait for her and of course he would whatever he could, he was going to write her, and stop by her house whenever he could, he was going to be a good friend like she had been for him
But Ron didn't want her to leave, so he chase her down the stair, towards the gate, to the train platform, and when she was saying good bye to McGonagall and her parents were walking in the train he stop her
"Hermione, wait, you can't do this" said Ron almost yelling at her and grabbing her arms
"Ron, let go" said Hermione, releasing her from his hold
"Mister Weasley, please go back to the castle" said McGonagall
"Wait, I need to talk to her" said Ron to McGonagall, "Please don't go, will work this out, ill help, just tell me what to do to fix this, you can't leave, you can't leave me and Harry, we need you, I know I've been a jerk and that you deserved much better, and I promise ill work on that, but I need you to give me a chance, just give me a chance and you'll see everything will work up fine, but please don't leave" said Ron to Hermione looking at her in the eye But the next word froze Ron heart and he couldn't believe what he was hearing,
"Thank you Ron, but I have to go" said Hermione, before turning round and walking into the train to her parents that just witness the hole show, he just stud there looking after her, even when the train already left,
so McGonagall touch his shoulder and whisper in his ear "Don't worry, shell be back, just give her some time" and he just nod letting a tear fall through his cheek, and he realized that she didn't care, that he had cause enough damage to her to force her not to care about him, and if he felt bad before now he felt worse, he just want to crawl under a rock and dye, how he could face Harry again knowing that it was his fault that she had left, but right now he need his best friend and his sister, so he turn around and follow McGonagall towards the castle
Little did he know that Draco had been watching the hole drama, he was there when fake Hermione said goodbye to her friends and walk to the train left, now he need to reports this to his father and let him know that everything was according to plan, he was sick, and scared, the fact that fake Hermione could pretend to be Hermione without her best friends noticing the difference was a prove how great Voldemort powers were,
so Draco also turn around and start walking back to the castle to write the letter, and get ready to start his plan to save the real Hermione and bring her back He was bound to secrecy not to tell anybody but that didn't meant he couldn't help Harry and Ron realize what was happening, and if that didn't work if would be up to him, just fifteen days before the break and he would be able to help her, but in the mean time he had to play low, they were others in Slytherin and he need to talk to his mother, so in addition to his letter he also send a message, but he could only hope...
