Dark AU Occasionally, things do not always go as planned. After the war, the wizarding world is not run by the Light, it's run by power and blood. Hermione's concept of peace and equality has always been relative, even if it's granted under Voldemort's regime. Yet, his carefully crafted utopia cannot be held without sacrifice. It's time for Hermione to prove her worth.

Needing the answers, Hermione saves the Death Eater's life during the battle at Hogwarts, forcing both to go on the run together. Now, she must survive Bellatrix's wrath and somehow explain her actions to the world. Contains: Femslash, Torture, Adult Themes, PLOT, etc. Rated M!
