Different plans

Chapter 35-Hermione

A/N: I took the first scene partly from a book called 'Just Henry' and partly from 'Pirates of the Caribbean'. I think it fits perfectly

"You can't change it," Raymond said, continuing to walk towards the water. "Both you and I know it is true."

"It's not!" the man yelled, jumping upon his son. "It is not true!"

"Leave me alone! I can't do this any longer! Just let me get over with it!"

"No, I won't! Not until you tell me why you try to kill yourself!"

"My life is worthless, understand and admit it! I'm glad when it's over!" Ray tried tom free himself from Tom's arms to run into the water and end his life, but the man wouldn't let him.

"You are not worthless! You're the best son anyone could wish to have, Ray!"

"And you are not my father! You can't tell me what to do, so just let me go!"

"I bloody blood adopted you!" Tom went on, struggling to hold his son back. "And it doesn't matter to me who your real parents are, I will always love you like a father should love his son!"

"And made Louisa pregnant," Raymond added angrily. "My mother was right. I should be ashamed of you."

"This woman is soulless, she doesn't know what she's doing! Forget what she said!"

"How can I forget what my biological mother said? It's impossible!"

"Ray!" someone yelled suddenly.

"Hermione," the boy whispered, stopping to fight against Voldemort.

"I can explain everything," the girl said as she came into reach, but Ray stopped her by placing a kiss on her lips. They both stood there in the rain, wetter than anyone could be, and kissed. The time seemed to have stopped.

"Why?" Ray whispered as they broke apart.

"My grandma died," Hermione replied, also whispering, hugging her boyfriend. "Ray!" she yelled as the boy suddenly collapsed.

"He's burning up," Tom said as he felt his son's forehead.


"I'm sure it was Max," JWOHPfan said, bathing Ray with a cool cloth.

"Together with Ronald," Ginny added, looking at Draco. "What do you say?"

"I agree," the boy said, looking at his friend who lay in the bed, whiter than even the white blanket and pillows. Only Ray's cheeks were bright red from the fever.

"We need to do something against them," Hermione said, pacing back in forth, hoping that it would help her getting an answer.

"But what?" Neville asked helpless. "There is nothing we can do."

"Oh, there is," Ginny said, smirking evilly. "And I know what."


"You do know that it is risky," Severus said, raising his eyebrow. "But I still think that it'll work."

"So you are going to help us?" Ginny asked, sounding hopeful.

"Yes," the Potion Professor said, defeated.


"What do you freaks want here?" Vernon asked.

"We wanted to talk to you," Hermione said. "And I'm sure you are going to like the result."

"Am I?"

"It's about Maximilian Potter," Ginny added. "We want him to feel guilty for what he has done to a friend of mine."

"Mh, I might help you," the whale said thoughtfully, scratching his head.


"The first part is done," Hermione smiled as she and Ginny came out of #4 Privet Drive, both of them smiling.

"Now is time for my idea," the female Weasley said. "I can't wait to see what for a face they will make!"


"Ginny! Hermione! I thought...I thought you were..." Mrs. Weasley was lost for words.

"Ronald and Maximilian knew where we were," Hermione said. "But we don't have much time. Soon they'll come to get us."

Suddenly Ginny and Hermione turned around and walked away.

"W-what's happening?" Molly asked. Then, when it was already too late, she knew that both girls were under the imperius curse.


A few days later at Hogwarts...

"Two howlers?" Max couldn't believe his eyes. "What have we done to get two howlers?"

"YOU DUMB, WORTHLESS, FREAK CREATURE! SOMEONE TOLD ME WHAT YOU DID TO THAT BROTHER OF YOURS! YOU NEARLY KILLED HIM! AND DON'T THINK I CARE FOR HIM, BUT IF YOU WOULD STILL COME TO ME, THEN THERE WOULD BE HELL TO PAY!"

"U-uncle Vernon," Max whispered shocked.

"RONALD BILIUS WEASLEY AND MAXIMILIAN JOSEPH POTTER, HOW DARE YOU NOT TELL ME WHERE HERMIONE AND GINNY ARE? I'M SICK WORRYING ABOUT THEM AND YOU WALK AROUND WITH THE KNOWLEDGE OF THEIR WHEREABOUTS! AND DON'T EVEN THINK OF DENYING IT!"

"Who told her that we know where they are?" Ron asked. "Who was that idiot?"

"Potter, Weasley, come to my office now," the headmistress said, sounding very angry. "I'm sure we have a lot to discuss."
