Prompts: Chose pairing, Hogwarts (location), Owl (creature).

Pairing: Hermione/Rabastan

He sees her lying there with Hogwarts crumbles around. She's unconscious and covered in blood, he picks her up and runs away from the battle.

His side has lost, he has come to accept that but he won't lose his life or freedom. Everyone is too busy fighting to notice him taking her apart from a lone owl flying around circles.

All those months on the run has made her light to carry. He doesn't know where's going to go yet, but when he figures it out she will be by his side whether she likes it or not.

She's his prize for everything he's lost over the years. He deserves a prize or at least he thinks he does.

He wishes that girl was a Pureblood, but he's willing to accept that she's not.

She's beautiful that helps him a lot.

Once he gets her all cleaned up and healed, she will be even more beautiful.

She'll be like the pretty dolls his mother used to collect that he liked to look at when he were a child.
