This is a response to the person called Reviewer: I had thought of that at first, but I realized that since the war is still going on the Burrow will have wards up all over. Plus, Hogwarts is being rebuilt and that will have wards up as well. Also Harry and Ron went back too Grimmauld Place after the funeral, and Hermione was still with Bellatrix then. Grimmauld Place has wards as well. I know you might think that Harry or Ron will just let her inside, but it's not that easy when they think she's dead. I hope that clears things up!

Harry broke into a run and Ron followed suit. "Ron you drive the snake away. I will keep Voldemort busy." Harry commanded. "Harry, does that mean?" Ron asked. Harry nodded, knowing what Ron meant. Ron gave him a quick hug as a farewell, and they both went their separate directions. One of them was going to meet their death while the other tried to prevent death.
Hermione opened her eyes slowly and looked around. She faintly heard somebody say, "Hey, look she is awake!" She coughed and winced at the pain as she did so. A man dressed in Healer robes came over to her and said, "We have someone who can do the healing spell for sectumsempra." Another man was brought in, but she couldn't see who it was until he was right in front of her. "Lupin?" (A/N: Remus Lupin isn't dead in this one…yet.) She coughed out. He nodded his answer. "You have to do this soon. She has already lost so much blood." A Healer said. Lupin nodded and preformed the spell. She watched as all her wounds closed up at a slow pace. "Thank you." Hermione said smiling. He nodded his head and then left.
"How do you feel?" A Healer asked. She got up just fine although, she was a little wobbly at first because she hadn't been on her feet in a long time. She started to step out of the lean-to, but jumped back when a spell almost hit her. "What's going on out there?" She asked the Healer. "Just another battle," He replied simply. Hermione asked, "Where is my wand?" He handed over her wand and beaded bag. She slung the bag over her shoulder, took her wand, and said her "thanks". Then she dove out of the lean-to at the ready. She dodged and ducked while searching for someone she knew. She saw Neville not too far away, and she ran up to him. "Have you seen Harry or Ron?" She asked him. "Hermione Granger?" He asked in disbelief. "Yeah I'm alive and it's a long story that I don't want to tell right now, so can you please help me." "Yeah, sorry I think I saw them go that way." He answered her pointing to an area of woods that looked deserted. "Thanks, Neville." Hermione said, and then sprinted in the direction he had pointed.
When she got to the area she slowed to a walk and looked around. She was expecting someone or something to jump out at her, but nothing happened. She looked up and the sky and murmured, "Full moon tonight." The werewolves would be in their true form tonight which makes them fifty times more dangerous.
Then she saw them. All their gleaming yellow eyes shone through the trees as they advanced on her. She knew that meant Harry and Ron were facing the same danger as her. She brought her wand out in front of her and thought of a million spells she could use, but she knew it would be useless with so many surrounding. Hoping that it would buy her some time she threw an explosion at the werewolves and made a run for it.
Harry saw the full moon too. He felt tense, but he wasn't going to back down from facing Voldemort. Then he realized something: He had never gotten to say goodbye to Hermione. She was going to wake up and find out that I'm dead. He just hoped she was alright. Not far away he heard a howl. He hoped Ron knew about the werewolves too. Harry looked ahead and saw him, so he made his way forward. "Harry Potter, the Boy-Who-Lived has finally come to die."
Hermione was losing confidence as she saw the werewolves were gaining on her. They were snapping at her heels, so she put in a burst of speed and shot spells behind her. She watched some of them break away. They were planning to trap her, but she would make sure that didn't happen this time. While Hermione was running from the werewolves Ron was in a similar predicament.
"Get back you filthy mutts!" Ron yelled at the werewolves chasing him. He mentally apologized to Remus. All I do is go looking for a snake, and these guys decide to turn up! Ron was running at top speed when he noticed there were more werewolves to his left. He noticed they were chasing someone too. He sent a spell at the werewolves chasing the other person and swerved to his left. He now could see who it was. "Hermione, it's me!" Ron yelled. She turned her head and looked at him. "Ron!" She exclaimed. "Keep running!" He commanded as she started to slow down. She nodded sheepishly and turned her head forward again.
"Where is Harry?" She asked. Ron was beside her now, so she no longer needed to yell. "He went to Voldemort, and he wants us to kill the snake." He said because he knew that Hermione wanted to go see him one last time. She turned her head forward again to try and hide the small tears on her face.
Harry walked forward, unfazed. Then he closed his eyes and waited for the curse. Memories flashed through his mind of his two best friends and all their time spent together. Then he heard the Voldemort yell, "AVADA KEDAVRA!" There was a flash of green light and then everything disappeared.
Hermione and Ron had successfully gotten away from the werewolves and now they were searching for Nagini. They knew Nagini would be with Voldemort, so they went the way Harry had gone. They were coming to a clearing littered with Death Eaters. Hermione stopped dead in her tracks as she watched the flash of green light and Voldemort yelled the words "AVADA KEDAVRA!" Ron came up behind her and put his arm around her in a comforting gesture. They had both watched him die right before their eyes; Hermione buried her head in Ron's neck and sobbed. She didn't care if Harry was supposed to die or not he was still dead. She wished that there could be some other way even though she knew there wasn't. She faintly heard Voldemort say, "Is he dead?" She watched Narcissa Malfoy walk up to him and check. One word rang out, "Dead." Hermione had hoped so bad that he was still alive, but she knew that couldn't be possible.
Hermione and Ron went to hide themselves from view as the Death Eaters forced Hagrid to carry Harry. Ron and Hermione apparated back to battle. They got there just when Voldemort said, "Harry Potter is dead." Ron and Hermione watched as Neville gave a rather inspiring speech about Harry and then out of nowhere he pulled the sword out, and Harry rolled out of Hagrid's arms. Harry was alive! Ron and Hermione ran into a hug with huge grins on their faces. Neville was blasted backwards and the Death Eaters clashed with all the good witches and wizards. "Let's go find Harry!" Ron and Hermione exclaimed in unison as they ran in the direction Harry had gone.
They ran inside the building and were met with the snake, and Harry fighting Voldemort. Hermione could tell the snake was closing in on Harry so she reached for a tiny piece of rubble and threw it at the snake. It turned and directed its attention at Hermione. Ron had run off to go find the sword, so they could kill the snake. Harry was running down the steps at her and she ran up to him to give him a quick hug but the snake was closing in on them so Harry grabbed Hermione and put her arms around her to protect her. By luck, Neville appeared with the sword and sliced the snake in half. They pulled each other in for one last hug before they parted ways again.
