"Calm down Hermione!"

Ginny's exclamation knocked Hermione out of her thoughts and the 4th year Gryffindor realised she was tapping her foot in nervousness. She stopped the annoying movement before glancing out the window worriedly, noticing the train was nearing Platform 9 ¾.

"Sorry Gin." Hermione mumbled. "But this isn't going to be the nicest of reunions. I haven't seen my parents since the start of the summer holidays when I ran off to see Sam."

"Speaking of the Winchesters, are they going to be at the station too?" Fay asked from her seat in the corner, lifting her eyes from her magazine to stare at Hermione. "Sam's pretty cute."

"Ew." Hermione crinkled her nose at Fay's opinion. She knew that both Winchesters were attractive but after growing up thinking of Sam as a brother, it was odd and slightly gross to think about Sam in any other way than platonically. Hermione answered Fay's question with a shrug, "Dean didn't say anything about being here when I saw him and Sam last week."

"If he has any sense, he won't turn up." Ron commented as he played exploding snap with Harry, Fred and George. He looked up to see Hermione giving him a questioning stare. "What? He won't! Mione, you're about to see your parents for the first time in nearly a year. If I was Dean, I'd wait until you've settled things with your parents before turning up. I don't think your dad will take it too lightly, since he doesn't know everything like your mum does, if the people who you left for are there. It doesn't help Dean's case that he's dating you now either."

"EXCUSE ME?!"

Fay's magazine slipped out of her hands as she sat up straight from her slouched position, staring incredulously at Hermione. Ginny was staring too but she was grinning widely. Fred and George just looked on with amusement.

"When were you going to tell me this?!" Fay asked, pointing at Hermione accusingly. "When did that happen? How did it happen?"

"You should have seen it!" Harry chuckled, shaking his head. "Mione just grabbed Dean after he insulted the Minister after the third task and kissed him. Mrs Weasley went mad!"

"Merlin, Hermione. Didn't know you had it in you." Ginny stated, laughing. "I can just imagine mum's face!"

"Sorry I didn't tell you." Hermione apologised to Ginny and Fay, biting her lip. "I just haven't had time to tell you both what with everything that's happened and getting ready to come home."

"Well if he ever gives you any grief, just tell us Granger." George told her, Fred nodding in agreement. "I'm sure Fred and I can soon make him pay with a few spells and pranks."

"I'll remember that. Thanks boys!" Hermione laughed before standing as the train slowed to a halt. She grabbed her stuff and led the way to the barrier between the muggle and magical platform. She ran through the barrier with Harry and Ron, laughing at Ron's mumble about having no peace now he was home.

Her laughter soon died however when she caught sight of her parents. They were both staring at her with blank faces, her father's harsher than her mother's, and they didn't move to greet her.

"I'll see you guys over the holidays, I guess." Hermione sighed, hugging both Ron and Harry. She hugged Fay, Ginny and the twins as well when they came through the barrier before making her way towards her parents.

"Oi Granger!"

Hermione turned at the simultaneous call from the twins, raising her eyebrow in reply.

"We miss you already!" Fred called while George winked and waved.

Hermione laughed at their actions before waving back and resumed walking to her parents. She stopped in front of them and looked up at them nervously.

"I'm sorry for leaving like that." Hermione told them before admitting, "I'm not sorry for leaving but I'm sorry for leaving without telling you first. I had to go see Sam! I thought he had died then Crowley turned up telling me he was alive so I had to go see for myself! Then I met Sam's cousins and grandfather and Sam said I could stay! After thinking he was dead for nearly a month, I couldn't not stay! Please forgive me!"

Hermione's mum cracked first. She gave Hermione a watery smile before pulling her in for a hug, "Oh Hermione! Always getting into mischief and worrying us! You're forgiven, don't worry. Just never do it again, please."

"I won't." Hermione stated before turning to her dad who was still watching her with a frown. "Dad?"

"It's all okay, Hermione." He told her gently, hugging her tightly, before pulling away with a frown. "But who were those two red heads waving to you? One of them your boyfriend?"

Hermione laughed loudly, holding her stomach, before replying, "Merlin no! That's Fred and George Weasley, the pranksters of the school and Ron's older brothers. They're basically brothers to me."

Hermione walked back to the car with her parents, pausing slightly when her father continued, "But have there been any boyfriends I should know about?"

Hermione waited until they were all in the car before answering quietly, "Mark, one of Sam's distant cousins, was my date to the Yule Ball. We started dating too. I met him in the summer holidays when I stayed with Sam and his family."

"Does he treat you right?" Her dad asked as they made their way home. "And when do we get to meet this Mark?"

Hermione smiled and admitted softly, "He treated me perfectly. He made me laugh and I was so happy with him."

"You loved him." Hermione's mother breathed as she watched Hermione, making Hermione's father nearly crash into the car in front. But she frowned, "You keep saying things in the past tense. Did you break up?"

"Not exactly." Hermione replied as the car came to a stop outside the Granger residence. She got out the car and helped her parents take her stuff to her bedroom before joining them downstairs in the living room. She had brought down a picture and she showed it to her parents. "This is Mark and me at the Yule Ball."

"Oh! You look beautiful!" Her mother gasped as she took the picture carefully. "Mark is certainly an attractive man."

"Just how old is he?" Hermione's father asked as he stared down at the picture. It was a wizarding photo so it moved. It showed Hermione and Mark dancing together and laughing before turning to the camera, Hermione giving a radiant smile and Mark winking while pulling Hermione closer to him automatically.

"Never actually found out." Hermione admitted, shrugging her shoulders, before catching sight of her parents' questioning stares. "The Campbells, Sam's family from his mother's side, are all hunters. Birthdays and ages don't really matter to them. Christian's wife Arlene is at least 10 years older than him. I think Mark was about 28 when that picture was taken at Christmas."

"28?!" Hermione's father growled, sitting up straight and looking angry. "He's far too old for you!"

"Age doesn't matter!" Hermione shot back as she jumped to her feet, unwilling to let anyone insult Mark. "He was a perfect gentleman and I loved him! Anyway, it doesn't matter anymore because he died!"

There was silence for a moment after Hermione's outburst before Hermione sank back into her seat and let out a small groan. She rubbed her eyes tiredly before speaking quietly, "When you're a hunter, there's always the risk of getting hurt or dying. All the Campbells are excellent hunters but the creature we were hunting... It was an Alpha shapeshifter after its baby. It was ten times stronger than a regular shapeshifter but we didn't know that. Mark tried to take it down and ended up having his neck broken. This all happened only a few days after Christmas."

Hermione looked up at her dad and told him, "Mark was protecting me when he tried to kill the shapeshifter. I was looking after the baby with Sam and Dean in the basement and Mark tried his damn hardest to keep that thing away from us."

"Wait a minute!" Her mum interrupted, biting her lip. "You told me Dean left the hunter lifestyle."

"He came back when he found out that Sam was still alive and that I was a hunter too." Hermione admitted before wincing when she realised what she had just revealed.

"WHAT?"

Hermione gave her dad a hard glare and pointed out coolly, "When your family and boyfriend are hunters and you have a guardian angel who's a bit busy fighting a civil war in heaven, you need to learn how to defend yourself in case anything comes after you for revenge. Sam trained me up all summer. That's why I didn't come home, honestly. I knew you'd take it like this. You have to understand that hunting is a part of me just like magic is. You just have to get used to it."

Hermione's mother stared at Hermione for a moment before stating, "You've changed since last year. You're a lot more confident and not afraid to stand up for yourself. I like it. Those Winchesters have had a good influence on you. Your father and I are ok with you being a hunter."

As she spoke, Hermione's mum glared at her husband and dared him to contradict her. He didn't.

"Fine." Hermione's dad muttered, frowning. "But I'm still not happy about you dating a 28 year old. Next time, date someone a little younger. Alright?"

Hermione hesitated before mumbling, "How about Dean? Is he young enough?"

There was a moment of silence before it was broken by the Gryffindor's mother. Hermione raised an eyebrow as her mother laughed and clapped her hands twice.

"I knew it! I knew something had happened between you and Dean! You positively glow while talking about him!"

Hermione blushed lightly before admitting, "We started dating last week when he stood up for me and my friends against the Minister of Magic. We haven't spoken since but I said I would ring him at some point today. Maybe even go over there."

The conversation carried on for a few more minutes, mainly about how Hermione was doing at school, before Hermione managed to escape to her room. Once there, she changed her clothes before making her way back downstairs. She paused in the front room, in front of her parents.

"I'm going over to America to see the boys and Uncle Bobby. I'll be back in a couple of hours. How about I invite them to our barbecue at the weekend?" Hermione suggested as she slipped on her ballet flats.

"That's a good idea!" Her mother agreed, her father nodding unwillingly. "Is Cas coming to pick you up then? Or are you still not talking?"

"Oh, we're talking now. We sorted everything out. But no, he's not. I've got my own way of travelling now. Watch!" Hermione admitted, winking before disapparating.


"I'm trying to save your life!"

"Exactly, Dean! It's my life! It's my life, it's my soul. And it sure as hell aint your head that's gonna explode when this whole scheme of yours goes sideways!"

Hermione's eyes widened as she landed in the middle of a shouting match between Sam and Dean. She stood by the door, watching with interest and trying to figure out why they were arguing about Sam's soul again. Bobby noticed her but she shook her head and put a finger to her lips to keep him quiet. Bobby nodded and turned back to join in the argument.

"Just curious. I presume Death's not doing this out of the goodness of his heart. So what's your half of the deal?" Bobby asked Dean, frowning in confusion.

Dean mumbled something unintelligible so Bobby told him to repeat himself.

"I have to wear his ring for a day!" Dean grumbled, glaring at the ground.

"Well this is just brilliant!" Hermione exclaimed, making both Sam and Dean jump. "My boyfriend's going to be Death for a day!"

"Mya!" Dean yelped, turning to look at her. "How long have you been stood there?!"

"Uh I arrived just in time to hear you tell Sam you're trying to save his life." Hermione admitted. "Uncle Bobby noticed me but I made him keep quiet so I could listen in."

"Still can't believe you're actually dating this idiot." Bobby told her, reaching her and pulling her in for a hug. "How was school?"

"The usual, you know. Killings, dark lords coming back." Hermione replied, hugging her uncle back. "Did Padfoot send you that information for those hunts?"

"Yeah, the boys and I managed to finish them all with help from a few friends." Bobby said before releasing her.

Dean made to hug her but Hermione held her hands up and told both him and Sam, "Neither of you get to hug me until you explain what the bloody hell is going on!"

"Death can get Sam's soul back and will put a wall in Sam's mind so he can't remember Hell if I take Death's place for 24 hours." Dean explained, folding his arms in annoyance. "But Sammy's getting all difficult for some reason."

Hermione sighed before rubbing her temples where she could feel a headache forming. After a moment she dropped her hands and nodded in acceptance.

"Okay. Now you can hug me."

The words were barely out of Hermione's mouth before Dean was picking her up in a hug. Despite the circumstances, Hermione found herself laughing at the enthusiasm. Once Dean let her down, Hermione pressed a kiss to his lips chastely before turning to Sam and hugging him too. He hugged her back but he wasn't as enthusiastic as usual.

"I'm doing this Sam." Dean told his brother, "I'm putting the ring on."

"Fine!" Sam snapped before heading for the door. "Just... Give me a minute to get my head around this?"

Hermione waited until the door was shut before saying, "20 bucks says he's off to get the ring."


Hermione and Dean made their way outside to find Sam looking down at a hole in the ground. The couple paused behind the younger Winchester.

"Looking for this?" Dean asked, holding up Death's ring as he scowled at his brother.

"Just taking a walk." Sam told them unconvincingly, turning to face them.

Hermione tuned out the rest of the conversation as she nonverbally placed a tracking charm on Sam. It wasn't like she didn't trust him but his soulless brain sometimes came up with crazy ideas. She watched as Sam walked back inside with Bobby then she turned to Dean.

"Don't do anything stupid, Dean." Hermione pleaded as she grabbed hold of Dean's arm. "If you do this, we getSammy back. Our Sammy, not this soulless version."

"Don't worry." Dean soothed, rubbing Hermione's arms comfortingly, before winking, "When have I ever done anything stupid?"

Hermione laughed weakly before pressing a kiss to Dean's mouth gently. Her hands locked behind his neck as he wrapped his arms round her waist and pulled her closer to deepen the kiss. Hermione giggled as Dean refused to let go when she tried to pull away. She gave up and continued to kiss her boyfriend for a few more minutes before she let go and shoved Dean away.

"Go!" Hermione laughed as she ignored Dean's pout and puppy eyes, which he did just as well as his brother. "Before Sam does something stupid again!"

"Fine! But I expect to continue once I get back!" Dean huffed jokingly before taking the ring out of his pocket. "See you in 24 hours."

Hermione waved before turning around and heading for the house. When she glanced over her shoulder, Dean was gone.


Bobby looked up as Hermione entered the front room and collapsed on the sofa next to him. She rested her head on his shoulder to peek at the book he was reading and realised it was one that she had read before and knew that Bobby had read it at least 100 times. Hermione read the book over Bobby's shoulder for a little while.

"Where's Sam?" Hermione asked casually as she finally realised that one of her best friends wasn't in the room.

Bobby frowned and looked down at her, "He said he was going to join you and Dean."

Hermione sat up and shook her head, "He didn't come out. Soulless Sam wouldn't care about interrupting me and Dean while we... say goodbye."

Bobby's face darkened and he swore under his breath before getting to his feet, "Where's he got to?!"

Hermione pulled out her wand and waved it while mumbling a few words before admitting, "I put a tracking charm on Sam while he and Dean were arguing outside earlier. I just need to... Ah! Got him! Blimey he's not even on your land! I'll be back in a minute, Uncle Bobby."

Hermione disapparated and landed silently in the corner of what seemed to be an abandoned warehouse. She spotted Sam in the middle of the room talking to Balthazar of all people. She couldn't hear what they were saying but after a few minutes Sam seemed to agree to something and left.

"Hello sweetheart."

Hermione stepped out of the shadows and nodded at Balthazar, unsurprised that he knew she was there.

"What did Sam want?" She asked, folding her arms.

"Just a little advice." Balthazar shrugged innocently. "Now I must be leaving!"

"Incendio!" Hermione exclaimed, lighting the holy oil up again with her wand. Her grace fluttered uncomfortably at the heat from the holy oil but she ignored it. "Balthazar! Tell me. Else I'll leave you here. You know I will."

Balthazar sighed before gesturing towards the door that Sam had left through, "Sam there doesn't want his soul back. So he asked me for a spell to keep it out. That thing will kill him after being in the Cage all this time."

"He's having a wall put up to stop him from being harmed!" Hermione snapped, taking a step forward before undoing her action when the heat made her wince.

Balthazar paled before admitting, "He didn't tell me that. You need to stop him!"

"Why?!" Hermione exclaimed, putting the fire out and stepping closer.

"Because he's going to commit patricide on Bobby!"


"Bobby!" Hermione cried, running through the house towards the sound of shouting. She followed it and found herself outside by the shed. She could hear Bobby shouting inside and Sam replying. Hermione pulled her wand out and jabbed it at the locked door. "Alohomora!"

The door flew open and Hermione charged in just in time to see Dean appear next to Sam and knock him out. Hermione sank to the ground and stared at Sam with disbelief.

"Mya? Hermione!"

Hermione looked up from Sam to see Dean crouching by Bobby and trying to undo the rope.

"Could you help me undo these?" Dean asked, gesturing to the knots in the rope.

Hermione stood up and took her wand out, slicing the rope open and freeing Bobby. Bobby stood up and walked out the shed without even looking at Sam. Hermione looked at Dean who was trying not to look at his brother.

"You've only been gone a couple of hours." Hermione stated quietly, catching hold of Dean's hand as he tensed.

"I failed. I didn't want to kill a little girl so her nurse died instead so her boyfriend tried to kill himself so I had to take the ring off to stop him and-"

Hermione stopped Dean's rambling by pulling him in for a firm hug. Dean held onto her tightly and buried his head in her hair as he breathed heavily.

"We're not gonna get our Sammy back." He choked out as he pulled away before turning to his unconscious brother. "We need to get him to Bobby's panic room and strap him down. I don't trust him."

Hermione used her wand to levitate Sam and led the way to the panic room where she used magic to strap him down so he couldn't escape. Bobby came down the stairs so Hermione left the two men to talk while she went to make some food.

There was someone sat at the kitchen table.

"Hermione Granger." The man stated as he munched on a hot dog. "Lovely to meet you. Could you get Dean? He needs to return my ring."

Hermione gaped as she realised that the man sat at the table was Death. She nodded weakly before returning to the stairs.

"Dean?" She called down the stairs. "There's someone here for you."

"Well it's not the best time right now! Who is it anyway?" Dean replied, appearing at the bottom of the stairs with a tired expression.

"Death." Hermione stated faintly, watching as Dean's face fell even more before he made his way up the stairs. He took Hermione's hand and entered the kitchen with her.

"Dean. Take a seat. Oh and Hermione too." Death told them, pushing a hot dog over to them. "I got you one from a little hot dog stand in LA, Dean. I hope you don't take offence, Hermione, but I didn't get you one. I didn't know you would be here."

"It's fine." Hermione replied quietly, still trying to get over the fact that Death was sat at Bobby's table. She ignored the conversation between Death and Dean as she studied the man that took life. He was dressed all in black apart from a white dress shirt that he wore under his coat and he had a cane that leaned against the table. His hair was pitch black, just like Harry's hair, and it nearly reached his shoulders in its combed-back style.

Hermione's jaw dropped when Death said he was going to hell to get Sam's soul but she grinned slightly when he said he was getting sick of Dean and Sam dying and coming back. Death disappeared and Hermione and Dean looked at each other with hope.

"Bobby!" Dean shouted, scrambling up and running down the stairs with Hermione right behind him. "Get that door open!"


"Dean."

Hermione and Dean shot up from where they were listening to Bobby's information about a missing couple to see Sam standing in the doorway, looking at them. Death had given him his soul back the night before and Cas had confirmed it was there. Hermione had stayed the night after informing her parents that Sam was seriously ill.

"Sammy!" Dean exclaimed and the brothers hugged each other happily. Sam hugged Bobby next, asking how he was alive and finding out that Cas was alive and had healed him. Then he turned to Hermione.

"Mya?! Whoa! Look at you! You've grown up so much!" Sam told her, picking her up in a hug. Hermione returned the hug joyfully, feeling tears appear in her eyes. This was her Sam, her older brother, who had been missing since he got out of the Cage last year.

Once Sam had put her down, he said he was hungry so Hermione made him a sandwich. They found out Sam could remember falling into the pit but couldn't remember being soulless at all. He was filled in with all the harmless news that he could be told like Hermione becoming a hunter.

"Since when have you been a hunter, Mya?" Sam asked, shocked. "Who trained you?"

"Since last summer." Hermione admitted before lying and telling Sam, "I saved Padfoot, who you boys know from when you were little, and Bobby trained him and me."

"Padfoot?" Sam looked between the three of them before understanding lit up his face. "The one that was a skinwalker!"

"That's the one!" Dean confirmed before looking at his watch. "I'm going to work on the Impala. Coming, Angel?"

"Might as well." Hermione shrugged, getting to her feet. "Finish that food, Sam, and then go have a lie down. You only just woke up."

Bobby shot to his feet and muttered, "Uh... I'm going to... uh... yeah..."

Hermione, Sam and Dean watched him hurry out of the room with a glance at Sam as he passed him. Sam turned to the two of them and raised his eyebrows in puzzlement. Dean just mumbled something and pulled Hermione out of the house.


"You're going to have to tell him, Dean." Hermione told her boyfriend as she watched him lean over the Impala's engine. She was sat on the side, next to the tools, swinging her legs slightly.

"Why?!" Dean asked, looking up from his car. "It might make the wall collapse!"

"He's gonna find out one way or another. Uncle Bobby might snap or Crowley will find out and tell Sam everything just to spite us." Hermione pointed out, sighing. "Please... just think about it. Okay?"

"Alright, alright." Dean groaned, putting the bonnet down and placing the tools back in their original place. "I'll think about it."

"Thank you." Hermione smiled, jumping down from her seat. She ran a hand over the Impala lovingly. Dean had had a strong influence over her and she loved the car nearly as much as Dean did. Hermione took a seat on the bonnet carefully and watched Dean as he stretched, his back cracking from where he had been bent over his car for too long, her eyes lingering on his ass.

Dean turned and caught sight of her sat on the Impala's hood staring at him appreciatively. He grinned mischievously before getting rid of his shirt, claiming, "I would remove you from my baby but you look perfectly gorgeous sat there."

Hermione tilted her head and commented, "You don't look too bad either. But I think you need to be a little closer for me to decide properly, though."

Dean smirked before striding towards her, coming to a stop in front of her. He nudged her legs and Hermione opened them slightly so Dean could stand in between them. Dean leaned forward and captured her lips in a hot and passionate kiss, his hands on the hood of the car on either side of her body, and Hermione wrapped both her arms and legs round Dean as she responded with just as much fervour. Hermione felt the slightest tingle in her chest and pulled away, about to mention it to Dean, when she lost her train of thought thanks to Dean's kisses on her jaw and neck.

"Whoa! Cas wasn't kidding about you two!"

Hermione, who had been gripping Dean's bare, broad shoulders for support, let go of her boyfriend like she had been scalded. Sam was standing in the doorway, grinning but also looking a little green.

"Sam!" Dean exclaimed as he pulled down Hermione's top, which he had been pushing up just moments ago, "Uh we can explain!"

Sam chuckled and told the two of them, "No need. Everyone's been expecting this for ages and Cas explained what happened between you two to me anyway."

"I knew I felt Cas arrive!" Hermione murmured to Dean.

"Why didn't you say anything?" Dean asked, confused.

"I was about to!" Hermione exclaimed, glaring teasingly at him. "But someone distracted me and made me forget!"

Sam smirked at the banter before turning serious and saying, "I'm so sorry for everything guys."

Dean looked confused but Hermione sighed and stated, "You know about the past year."

Sam nodded and admitted, "Cas told me everything."

"Cas! Friggin' child!" Dean exclaimed angrily, finally stepping away from the Impala and Hermione. "You're not meant to know! You have a wall up to block all memories from hell and knowing about the past year might make it collapse!"

Hermione slipped off the hood and rested a hand on each Winchester's arm and pointed out, "Well we can't do anything about it now. Let's just do what we're good at and kick some monster ass... After I've made Uncle Bobby and you two a decent dinner!"


It was 2 hours later, just after the four hunters had finished their dinner, that Hermione, Dean and Sam's debate about films was interrupted by a POP!

"That's a wizard." Hermione stated, on her feet within seconds, as the wards around Bobby's house informed her of their magical visitor. "They're powerful... I bet it's Dumbledore!"

Just seconds after she had finished speaking, a knock on the door was heard. Hermione pulled her wand out, just in case, and answered the door with Sam, Dean and Bobby behind her.

"Professor! I thought it was you!" Hermione smiled, opening the door wider so her headmaster could enter. "Please come in!"

"Miss Granger, I must say! The wards around the house are remarkably strong! If we were at school, I would award 50 points to Gryffindor for such remarkable spell work!" Dumbledore exclaimed, smiling jovially, as he entered the house. He was wearing robes of deep blue and looked as wise and powerful as ever but he also seemed to have aged a few years within the past couple of days.

"Thank you sir." Hermione blushed before continuing on. "You know Sam and Dean, of course, and this is Bobby Singer. He's an extraordinary hunter and researcher and he's who trained Sirius to be a hunter. Uncle Bobby, this is my headmaster Albus Dumbledore."

"Nice to meet you." Bobby grumbled, shaking Dumbledore's hand. "If we're gonna be working together, you can just call me Bobby. None of this Mr Singer crap."

"Of course and, as I have told Sam and Dean, you can call me Albus. Hermione, you can call me whatever is most comfortable for you while I am here since I am your teacher." Dumbledore told Bobby and Hermione. "Now! The reason I have come to see you is because I'm restarting the group known as The Order of The Phoenix. It was first founded by me in the first wizarding war against Voldemort and it's a secret group of witches and wizards who are against Voldemort, his followers and his ideas. I would like you three, and I suppose Hermione could help out too, to join the Order and be hunters for us. Voldemort will be recruiting Dark creatures and we need people with experience to be on our side to help us hunt them. I know you said you wouldn't help the British with their creature problem but I'm hoping you'll reconsider."

"Wait a moment!" Dean interrupted, holding his hand up. "I told your minister we wouldn't help your Ministry. I didn't say anything about secret organisations. If it keeps Mya and her friends and family safe, count me in."

"Me too. I have a lot of making up to do for the past year. This is a way to make some of it up." Sam commented, nodding.

Bobby chuckled and reached over to mess up Hermione's hair, moving back before she could hit him, "I suppose I better help to keep you safe, kid. These two can never do anything without me."

Hermione stuck her tongue out at Bobby before turning to Dumbledore, "I'll help them hunt too. I'd only be hunting over here if I didn't so I suppose it'd be better to help you out in Britain. There are plenty of hunters over here to keep things under control. Rufus can take Uncle Bobby's place over here while Uncle Bobby's in England."

"Perfect. Now I just have to convince Molly not to fuss and comment every time you come in from a hunt." Dumbledore sighed, looking quite scared at the thought of telling Mrs Weasley what was going to happen. "I would like you four to come over to England and to Order headquarters some time within the next week so you can meet everyone. Hermione, the Weasleys are moving into Headquarters on Friday if you would like to move in for the summer too. I can't tell you where Headquarters is until you are ready to go there, for safety reasons."

"My parents have invited these three to a barbecue on Sunday so we can come after that if you send someone to get us." Hermione suggested, ignoring the Winchesters' and Bobby's puzzled faces. "I'll tell my parents that I'm hunting all summer to keep them safe. They know about me being a hunter."

"Bloody hell, they're gonna kill us when they next see us!" Dean groaned, his head falling back in despair. "And since when are we going to a barbecue?"

"Since now. My mother wants to see you again and my father wants to probably threaten you, Dean, since I told him about us." Hermione admitted cheerfully.

"Well that's everything settled for now then!" Dumbledore said happily, ignoring Dean's groan of annoyance. "I'll talk to you when you come over on Sunday. Oh and Hermione? Don't tell Harry about the Order or anything about what I've said today. His letters might be checked by the ministry. Knowing Fudge, they will be. He'll be moved to headquarters eventually but not now."

Hermione frowned but nodded before saying, "Of course. But don't expect me to lie to my best friend, professor. Just today, we found out that the truth comes out in the end and it hurts to be lied to by your friends."

Dumbledore stared at her for a moment before nodding solemnly and leaving the house. The four hunters stared at each other for a moment before Sam cracked a smile.

"Looks like we're coming for a visit, Hermione. I hope Britain's ready for Dean's attitude."

Whoo! I finally finished this! This took me four days to write! Jesus I don't think I've ever wrote a chapter as long as this that isn't a case or them hunting! Hope you guys like it!
