AN: Changed Hermione's name because she in a way is going to develop a new identity as a pureblood and she had no identity in the wizard world (there was no name on her Hogwarts letter and the family tree) Another reason for the name will become clear in this chapter. BETA or suggestions for this story greatly welcome. Keep reviewing!

"NOOOO!" Shrieked Pansy, the rest of the room were glad they'd thought to cast silencing charms on the room otherwise the whole of Hogwarts and possibly Hogsmede would have heard Pansy's outburst.

"Pansy, calm down dear" Alexis tried to calm her daughter who had her wand pointed at her sister.

Pansy couldn't get her head around it they'd just told her that the stupid Mudblood was actually her sister she felt ill. "She looks nothing like me, how can we be twins? She must have put you under a spell." Pansy shrieked

"You were never identical twins, you resemble your father more whereas as you can see Alyssa looks more like me" Alexis tried to calm her other daughter

"Why do you keep calling her Alyssa she's Hermione Granger the Mudblood best friend of Pothead and Weasel" Suddenly Pansy got a calculating look in her eye. "I think I should go" she said heading to the door.

"Not so fast Pansy" Draco said blocking her way "I don't think we can trust her"

"Why do you care Draco, you should be helping me take this little imposter to the dark lord we'll be rewarded, maybe we could torture her as part of our wedding present?" she said gleefully with an air of Bellatrix Lestrange about her.

Draco looked down, worried that telling her the additional information about him marrying Alyssa rather than her would just make things worse.

Pansy took his silence and then realised the problem, as soon as she could read she had understood the wording of the betrothal contract, and Draco had to marry a daughter of the Parkinson's. She had been so glad that her twin was dead but with this revelation she understood Draco's unwillingness to meet her eyes

"You can't be serious, you want to marry her?! She's the ugliest girl in our year"

"Pansy does make a point we need to consider Alyssa, no one will believe that Draco wants to marry Hermione." Severus thought I'd interrupt Pansy's rants it was getting tedious at this point. "Draco tie her to the chair for now until we figure out what to do with the girl"

"I have an idea, but I don't think you're going to like it mother." Hermione made sure she had everyone's attention and waited for Draco to finish tying Pansy to the chair. "I need to continue being Hermione Granger."

"But…" her mother started

"NO" Draco shouted worried that she would be trying to get out of marrying him and he'd be stuck with Pansy.

Severus remained silent waiting for Hermione to continue, she wasn't the smartest witch of her age for nothing, most of her ideas were excellent, but he'd never admit that to anyone.

"I'll be both Hermione Granger and Alyssa Parkinson, I'll need a glamour to become Alyssa make me look more like Pansy so that the world accepts me, I'll say I've been living in America, that a nurse from when I was born stole me. I'll probably have to use the time turner again just to make sure people don't catch on. That way you know who won't be able to use me to get to Harry."

"What about…" Draco interrupted

"Don't worry Draco I've been learning about occlumency since I was in third year, when I'm presented to him as Alyssa I'll be able to show him only what I need to." Hermione pre-empted his question.

Severus just smirked she'd had less time to get her head round this than anyone and had come up with the best solution.

"That's good Alyssa but I was going to say what about Pansy, there is no way she'd keep this a secret."

"Draco hold her down I need to do something" Everyone looked puzzled at Alyssa who had a small blade in her hand.

"No! Alyssa what are you doing you can't hurt her please, I can't find one daughter to lose another" Alexis said with tears in her eyes.

Unbeknownst to the other occupants of the room Hermione now Alyssa the eternal bookworm had done research on twins, she found it interesting the bond that Fred and George had shared and wondered if it was true for all twins or just identical ones in the wizarding world. The Patil twins had been her other example the girls not being identical and in different houses gave her lots of examples she worked from. She found through other research that separating twins had bad consequences in the wizard world, for example if a twin died the other twin would not feel whole for the rest of their life. She had come across an example of twins that had been split at birth because of their parents separating one twin never knew that the other existed and her magic was at a normal level, however the other twin who knew had their magic greatly weakened and it was only when the other twin re-established their bond that the twin was 'healed'. Hermione knew the only way to be sure that Pansy could be trusted would be to force a bond the quickest was with blood. With that in mind she grabbed the dagger and sliced Pansy's hand.

Hermione cut Pansy's hand and then her own and held it, they were surrounding by bright glowing lights. Pansy at first horrified that the Mudblood was touching her then she felt whole, it felt as though her magic had increased ten-fold. Hermione also felt the same she felt more in control of her magic than ever. When the lights stopped Pansy shocked the whole room with what she did next.
