Chapter Twenty-One

Death is just a starter

Last time:

Hermione's heart now racing as it did so much lately, but then the world stopped and slowed down as Hermione turned around, to find not Dracula but a man just as old but not Dracula!

Now:

It was Snape! Hermione was filled with shook but was glad to see a knowing face, but it still scared her.

"Pro..Professor, what are you-"said Hermione.

"Not much time Miss Granger, come on Dracula is only seconds away from arriving" said Snape in his normal voice, and grabbed Hermione's arm.

Hermione still looked shocked "But what about Ginny!"

Snape turned and to face Hermione "What! Miss Weasley is not there"

"But was right there" said Hermione turning to find Ginny still there, but not to see Ginny but one of Dracula's brides holding a knife to Ginny's throat.

"NO" shouted Hermione "Leave her alone!"

Snape turned and said "YOU!"

"Yes, Snape did you like the potion!" said the bride, still holding the knife to Ginny's throat.

"Ha ha, very funny just because your master sent you to do his dirty work does not mean you can gloat!" Snape spat at her.

"Well I don't need to do the dirty work, the otherbride does the dirty wor-"said the bride but cut off.

"I don't have all night! But I would like you to let go of Miss Weasley" said Snape, still looking into the brides eyes then to Ginny but Ginny looked blank.

Hermione looked between them then to Ginny, trying catch her eye.

There was a silence between the humans' and the mortal, eye to eye.

"Ginny, please come out of the trance" said Hermione, emotion in her voice with the tears in her eyes.

The cold night picked up a high breeze, what made the trees in the forest in the distance move side to side as if they were dancing in the cool air, but something made Hermione sacred was coldness in her mind and knowing what it could be.

It's you? Hermione thought You! What do you want ,you have already made my life difficult! She waited and waited for Dracula to reply.

Yes, my dear, I'm not making your life difficult Hermione I just wish to see if you are-

Hermione thought Stop please you were the one who killed my parents or murdered them! Just get out of my mind and leave me be!

At that point Hermione felt the coldness at the back of her mind go, Hermione breath slowly and opened her eyes to find a pair of sky-blue eyes gazing at her but those eyes belonged to the Count, Count Dracula.

Dracula looked into her hazel eyes, making go into a trance that she could escape, her heart racing, then her breathing increased faster and quicker.

Hermione mind fogged over, but voices far away called back to life instead of the eyes of the Count towards death.

Hermione came back to her senses, and saw she was being lowered down and the only thing sight was the Count, her heart going faster and she could see very clearly the two fangs growing longer and longer from the Counts mouth.

Her eyes widened in shock, and she knew it was the end and was about to become a vampire.

But as the Count started to move towards her neck and they were about to sink into her skin, something came through the air hitting the Count in the side of the chest and making him fly 20 feet away from his prey.

Hermione however hit the ground, people's faces came in and out of vision. Hermione could hear them but a voice that she knew very well.

Her sight had cleared and kneeing a next to her was Professor Dumbledore who was looking at her in deep concern.

"Are you all right Hermione?" said Dumbledore.

Hermione took her time then said "I think so, I'm alive"

Dumbledore took her answer as a 'Yes' then he got up and Hermione could see other order members watching her, and one thing that made her heart jump in happiness to see Harry, Ron and Ginny.

Hermione got to her feet and walked over to Ginny and hugged her "Ginny, are you alr-" Hermione asked but was cut off by Ginny.

"Me...what about you everyone thought we lost you!"

Hermione looked a bit shocked but then said "I followed you out here, and you where part Dracula's plan"

It was Ginny's turn to look shocked "Well there is that, But I didn't know that the vampires were controlling me-" but she cut off this time as they all heard a noise.

Dracula was getting to his feet, but his face was telling a different story it looked like he had a treat taken away from him at the last seconded what was true.

Dracula looked from Hermione to Ginny then to Dumbledore who had stepped in front of Hermione to block her from his vision and also not to control her.

"Well Dumbledore, strange seeing you hear at this time of night" said Dracula glaring at Dumbledore.

"As a said to you before Count, I will look after the students at this school" said Dumbledore.

"Well I must say this school is not secure as I thought it would be, I can going in and out off the school quicker than you lot can walk from the front gate to the Great hall!" said Dracula smirking.

Dumbledore stood in thought for a moment.

But Hermione was clearly thinking but forgot about Dracula...

"Are you challenging me Dracula?" said Dumbledore with a raised eyebrow.

"It could but I must say this to Hermione" said Dracula trying to get a view of her.

Dumbledore seemed to tell that it was going to ok and turned to Hermione who was still behind him, Dumbledore said in a low whisper "Just stay here and talk"

Hermione nodded and got into Dracula's view

"Hermione there you are I thought you disappeared" said Dracula, to see if Hermione would try to look into his eyes, but failing.

"Well, you can see I'm here so what do you want, and if care about me so much why did you try to bite me and never been family like trying to see me or give me and present of my birthday or Christmas!" said Hermione angry flowing to tips in her body.

Dracula smirked, but someone behind her put some sort of book into her hand.

"Hermione have sent you a present on first birthday that you stayed at Hogwarts" he smirked again and then said "Hermione I have travelled miles and miles to see you face and this is how you repay me".

Hermione could not stop herself as she started to walk towards Dracula and where he held out a hand to her, but it seemed that she was to be in a trance, Ginny tried to stop her and was stopped by Dumbledore.

Hermione was now in front of Dracula, but Dracula had a funny look in his eye, he was just about to bite her then Hermione said.

"You know Count Dracula, I thought you were the one who gave me this book" She held up from behind her, Dracula looked shook as if you just sunk a stake into his heart (As you know he does not have one).

Hermione read aloud "The knowledge of vampires, Author unknown but is dated back to the Dracula era, where Van Helsing was alive and of his secrets to monsters and deaths, and oh look to says there is a way to kill him about werewolves, and..there is suppose to be a dagger that kills the lord or king of vampires and again here the dagger" Hermione held it up to eye view, Dracula look worried but Hermione continued "as the dagger was created by Vampires and Werewolves to kill one another with ancient magic"

And with that Hermione held the dagger above her head and striking it into Count Dracula's chest, nothing happened for a moment but the air around them started to suck towards Dracula and Hermione blown backwards.

The sky seemed to work with the dagger and with colossal explosion the Famous Count Dracula burst into a billion pieces of dust and he was gone there was another blowing of wind.

Hermione could feel the coldness in the back of her mind and could hear the Counts last words...

Death is just a starter, and my mine time will come as will your time comes Hermione Valerious.
