Azalea's POV
Tonight, like I do very often, I had a nightmare about the day Gideon nearly killed Hermione. Hermione is used to hearing me scream in the middle of the night after having the nightmare. It was the worst day of my life, and even though it appears in my dreams so much, it still scares me. I was carrying Hermione on my shoulder in the park, we were watching kids twice her age rides bikes and fly kites. "Hermione, I'll go get us drinks. You stay here. If anything horrible happens, just scream. I'll be there in a second." I told my sister, running to get a Mountain Dew Voltage for me and a juice box for her. I was getting our drinks when I heard, "Azalea!" Hermione was shouting my name, and I said to the guy who sold drinks, "Hold these. My sister is in trouble." I ran through a crowd of people, my eyes so full of tears that I couldn't see. When my vision returned to normal, I saw an RV I knew, sadly, all too well. It belonged to Gideon, and in the trunk, Hermione lie. Gideon was attacking her and she was crying. "Gideon, don't kill my sister! Not Hermione! Kill me instead! Anyone but my sister!" I exclaimed, standing in front of Hermione, who looked surprised. "Get out of the way, you silly girl. Why is she so important to you anyway? You know very well that she was only adopted." Gideon said. "That's why she's important. She's not related to me, and before she met me, poor Hermione had to live on rats and flies. Like I said, leave my sister alone, I should be the one in her place." I snapped. Gideon blushed and let Hermione out of the trunk. One hour later, an ambulance came for Hermione. Gideon didn't dare attack me, I guess he was and still is afraid of me. When I saw my sister in her hospital bed at the hospital, I apologized to Mom, Dad, and poor little Hermione for what I did. Of course, Hermione wasn't awake. I thought she'd never wake, and I cried until she stuttered, "A-Azalea, I-I'm scared. G-Gideon is a j-jerk." I agreed with her. Hermione was severely injured. I blamed myself for putting Hermione in danger. She was in the hospital for a month, and I never felt so guilty. See, I don't hate Gideon just for a childish war that is still being fought. Hermione means the world to me, and Gideon obviously realized that. He'd do anything to get me to raise the white flag; his tactics always fail. But attacking my adoptive sister? I officially hate the boy for life. It was not just Luna, not just for trying to rape my cousin, not just being enemies since Kindergarten, that made me hate him, but it was Hermione.
I got a new shipping idea. Hermione+Finn. (Both are my OCs, not Hermione from Harry Potter and Finn from Adventure Time.) Since Hermione was only adopted, I figured it'd be adorable. When Finn is older, he time-travels to the past because he was desperate to meet the younger version of Mabel, Dipper, and Candy, and at first he wants to go back to see Rebecca again. But he meets Hermione, who is only about 4 years younger than him. Hermione becomes best friends with Finn, and asked for advice from Azalea for years since she had a crush on him. (They're not really cousins, remember that.) But one day Hermione accidentally confessed how she felt about Finn, and she thought that he would find it awkward. But he feels the same way and they end up going out. I will most likely make a story, I just think it'll be adorable. By the way, when that actually happens, Hermione & Finn are in their 20s. I think I'll publish it shortly after this chapter is published.
