"Lyra? Severus I know her death was hard on you but she's been gone for seven years."

"Lucius you don't understand. A letter came in the mail the other day telling me that she had given the earrings to Lyra and a letter. The owl swooped down and dropped off a package and letter to her before flying over to me. She was alive and right there but I didn't notice because of what the order has done to her."

"Severus calm down. You will get nothing done if you continue like this. Now you siad Lyra was alive. How is that possible? We were told she was dead and even tried looking for her but with no luck. How is she alive."

"They didn't kill her. They took her, erased her memories and put her with muggles. They knew we wouldn't have looked in the muggle world because no pureblood likes them. She grew up with muggles Narcissa. Not just any muggles. ABUSIVE MUGGLES. She didn't have any idea about her true self until she got the letter."

"She's really alive. After all this time. They took her from us and hid her with abusive muggles. They already forced her to grow up in dirt but of course since she's related to us and the dark lord they had to make it worse for her. I'm guessing she doesn't go by Lyra does she."

"Of course not. They changed everything about her. Her appearance, memoires, style, and some of her personality even. What pisses me off the most is that she wasn't put in Slytherin. She should have been put in Slytherin even if she wasn't anything like one because she's a heir but the hat didn't see that. Someone has put blockers on her powers so no one would know the truth."

"Someone doesn't want people to find out the truth but why go through all this trouble for one child. I get that she is related to us and a lot of death eaters but she was just a child. Her parents even said they wouldn't pick a side. Everyone understood why even the dark lord himself understood but of course the order didn't so they took matters in their own hands."

"Can't you take custody of her Severus. You're her godfather and if you need help we will be more than glad to lend you a hand."

"Thank you Narcissa but right now that wouldn't be a great idea. She doesn't know much let alone that she's related to your family and the dark lord. I'm not the only one to have figured it out. Draco and his friends have caught on as well. As a matter of fact this weekend they're holding a quidditch match and the winner gets to pick someone to transfer into their house for a month. First time this has happened in centuries."

"So they're already trying to befriend her. When we were told she had died everyone took it hard. All the kids never forgave themselves for not being able to protect her. Now they learn that she is alive. Of course they're going to do everything in their power to get her back. Now what's her name now?"

"Hermione Jean Granger."

"WHAT!?"

"Yes. I know it sounds crazy but if you think about it it's not far off. She's known as the brightest witch of her age. If she's their daughter then that would explain a lot of things about her. How magic comes so easily to her. There is no doubt in my mind that it's her. When she put the earrings on her eyes turned green and silver."

"Severus can you show us your memories?"

Severus nodded and let them see him rushing over to the Gryffindor table and saw her eyes change and the conversation they had shared earlier that day. Lucius had a serious expression like he was coming up with a plan. Narcissa had tears streaming down her face. She felt so unlike herself crying like this but this was just too much.

She never let her emotions show in front of other people unless it was her family and even then it was still rare. She needed to get her niece out of that house and away from those filthy muggles. A pureblood raised muggle is a crime. Wait but wasn't she the best friend of Potter and Weasley. Draco talked about her all the time complaining about her.

"Severus, how is she going to trust us. It's not like we see her a lot but the few times we have talked or seen her we haven't exactly been nice to her. The same goes for the kids. Draco has complained about her since first year and they haven't had good interactions either. How are we going to convince her that we care about her?"

"Well that's where her so called friends are helping with. They've been using her. They seemed to only care about what she can give them. She's a tool for them to use. Taking advantage of her. It seems she feels she doesn't belong in Gryffindor and there has been multiple house meetings about her. She has befriended the girls and has at least had a conversation with one of the boys."

"Those stupid Gryffindorks. They think they're so good just because they're lions. Just wait until I get my hands on them for putting a finger on my niece. Severus we can't let her go back to her dirt parents. Can't she stay with us?"

"I don't know. With the dark lords pending return it might not be safe. I will try my best to see if she can stay with me but i'm not sure they'll let me take her unless the wizarding world knows who she is but that will put her in danger. You may send her a letter if you wish but do not put your name. Just initials for now."

The three of them continued to talk about Lyra and what their next plan of action should be before Severus had to return to Hogwarts but the Malfoy's were relieved. She was alive though in the most horrid situation ever. They couldn't wait to get there revenge on Dumbledore.

Hermione was having a hard time sleeping these past few nights. More so than usual. She would usually just pass out or not be able to sleep at all but ever since her talk with the potions Professor she had been having these strange dreams. She needed her strength tomorrow for the quitched game.

Ron had not stopped talking about it. In fact he got everyone in Gryffindor on his side. Slyhterin haven't had luck winning against them since Harry had become the teams seeker so that meant they were confident that they were going to win and Draco Malfoy would be in Gryffindor for a month.

Hermione wasn't looking forward to the end result and for once she was hoping Slytherin would win. Not because of her friends that she had made there but because she didn't want Malfoy to be treated the way Gryffindor is talking about.

They want to make him do everything for them. Their homework, cleaning, and all these other things that they don't do normally. They just want to make fun of him and make his life a living hell. He's not the nicest person but he also didn't deserve to be treated like that. At least in Hermione's eyes he didn't but of course Hermione's opinion didn't matter to them.

Hermione attempted to get some sleep but as sleep took her another dream started.

Hermione was standing in a beautiful looking manor with high end looking furniture and decorated with all sorts of paintings. She was in what looked like a living room. The floor had gray wood which varied from tone throughout. The fireplace that sat against one of the walls had light gray tiles going up to the ceiling and a white wood for the mantle. The couches were this dark green color with silver pillows and black wood. For the arm chairs it was switched. It was gray and silver with green pillows but the wood was the same black.

There was a huge snow white carpet in the middle of the room and on top of that was a very detailed coffee table. Unlike the rest of the furniture in the room this was different. It was light wood but had snake designs in it that made it almost glow. The top of it was glass. Most of the furniture faced the fireplace that had long bookshelves that covered the walls on either side of the fireplace.

The ceilings were tall with beams above to give the house even more details. A chandelier hanging from the middle made of what looked like pre gold. The walls were a very light gray almost white color with a green accent wall. Large paintings of dead family members. Large windows letting in natural light.

Hermione stood in awe as she looked more around the room. As Hermione continued looking a little girl about the age of 7 came running in. She had beautiful black curly hair with some brown and blond throughout. Pale skin and a thin figure. All her facial features fit her face perfectly. She seemed to be wearing boy's clothes. The one thing that stood out to Hermione the most while looking at the girl was her eyes. One was green and the other silver.

From what Hermione could gather from her appearance she was a tomboy. She also gave off that she was intelligent and goofy. The girl seemed to be serious at times but others she couldn't care less. As Hermione looked at the girl who was running around she couldn't help but feel sad. It was almost as if Hermione knew the girl. She reached her hand out to the little girl then bolted up in bed.

Hermione was breathing heavily and her vision byerly. As she calmed down she realized she was in the room of requirement. Today was the quidditch game. Hermione got dressed and left the room still thinking about the dreams. She had been having the same dream for the last few days but it got clearer and clearer each night.

Hermione sat down for breakfast at the Gryffindor table and was soon joined by Luna.

"Good morning Hermione."

"Good morning Luna. May I ask why you choose to sit here instead of with your house."

"I just wanted to sit with friends today. I've noticed what Gryffindor has been doing to you and since you helped me when Ravenclaw does it to me it's only fair I help you back."

"Thanks Luna. That means a lot. I'm glad I could help you and I'm glad we became friends. Your one of the only people that actually want to be my friend and not just use me or bully me."

"I'm glad we're friends to Hermione. You and I have been in the same situations since we got to Hogwarts. No one ever notices anything happening unless Slytherin is doing it. Everyone thinks Slytherin is the bad guy and that no one else can do anything wrong. I hate it. My father is a big supporter of Dumbledore when I really don't wanna support the so-called light side. I rather stay neutral."

"Yeah I feel what you mean. Every house has done it's fair share of bad things but it's always Slytherin that gets hate for it. Sometimes I wish I didn't get involved with Harry and Ron. Then maybe I would be able to find some kind of peace in my mind."

Hermione and Luna continued to talk though breakfast enjoying each other's company while at the Slytherin table something else was happening.

"Are you sure we can win Draco. We haven't won since Potter joined the team."

"I know everyone is worried but while those Gryffindor's have been relaxing and goofing off we've been practicing. We have worked harder for this game than any other game we've had. There is too much on the line for us to lose. This is our one chance to get Lyra away from those damn mudbloods and bloodtrators."

"Yes Draco we get that but she doesn't remember us. We also don't know who else has figured it out besides us so isn't it a little risky to just switch her like this without telling her of our plans."

"Yes but she has befriended the girls and all of Slytherin knows not to mess with her. Infact I heard that some 7th years saved her. She's warming up to us and I know she probably will be mad at us but after a couple of days she'll get over it. This is also a good time for others to befriend her and maybe she will get her memories back."

As they continued to talk an owl swooped in and dropped off a letter to Draco then taking off not even waiting for treats or a reply. Draco opened the letter and read

Draco

Severus came to the manor and told us what's been going on. Apparently Hermione Granger is actually Lyra. Your father and Severus are working on a way to make it so she doesn't have to go back to those abusive muggles. We have also heard about the quidditch match today.

Your father has bought the entire Slytherin team the newest and fastest brooms out right now. We will also be attending the match today. I know you weren't expecting us to find out but now that we are aware we are doing everything we can to keep Lyra safe. Please keep us updated on the progress you make with her.

As of this moment she knows that she is a pureblood and that she's on the sacred 28. She also knows she's an heir to Slytherin and has the ability to talk to snakes and a few others that her father had. She might also know who her godparents are. She doesn't know that she's related to us or the dark lord. Anyone she's related to so please don't call her cousin until either Severus or yourself tell her.

If Slytherin wins then I will be sending her a letter and the necklace. I will not be putting my name in the letter. Just initials. I wish you the best of luck sweetheart. Good luck.

Love your mother

Draco's eyes widened. When did Snape find out what they were doing and go to his parents. He passed the letter to all his friends who were just as shocked as he was but at the same time they knew it was only a matter of time before the potions Professor noticed and with the letter he got. The quidditch time was exciting for the new brooms. Now all they had to do was beat Gryffindor.

Hermione and Luna were making their way up to watch the game. Hermione didn't like quidditch and was getting tired of the fact that it's the only thing anyone has talked about. The only reason she was going is because Luna wanted her to go with her so she had someone there and so Hermione now finds herself standing with Luna.

Everyone was scattered around. Slytherin was standing together almost like a united force while the other three were mixed together. Hermione was soon joined by Gaberielle who smiled at her. Shocked to see her but glad that she seemed to be doing alright.

Lee Jordan was commentating the game "alright everyone are you ready for the only quidditch game this year. Gryffindor vs Slytherin. The winner gets to choose someone from the opposite house to transfer into there house for a month. Let's get this game started."

Both teams had come out and with the blow of the whistle the match started. Angelina Johnson grabbed the quaffle rushing towards the hoops. Ohh she got hit with a bludger in the arm causing her to drop the quaffle which was then caught by Vaisey.

She threw it into the hoops scoring 10 points to Slytherin. Fred and George were swinging and hitting the bludgers as many times as they could to try and take out the Slytherin team. They had only managed to hit Terence Higgs in the leg.

As the game continued Gryffindor was having trouble keeping up with Slytherin. Most of the Gryffindor team were using the school brooms and Slytherin had the fastest brooms around. Draco and Harry were above the feld looking for the golden snitch. Neither had caught sight of it yet. Urquhart was zooming fast and kept scoring for Slytherin. It was almost as if the Slytherin team had come up with strategies.

Gryffindor players looked like they hadn't played in months and were struggling badly. The score was 120 to 40 when both Draco and Harry had seen the snitch. Both of them were racing around the field while bludgers were shot their way. Arms stretched out and the stadium had gone silent in anticipation. In a second one of them had grabbed it before the two of them were hit and crashed into the ground. People were rushing down to see if they were okay while others waited for them to announce who had caught the snitch.

Draco Malfoy raised his hand with the snitch and Slytherin went wild. They had beat Gryffindor. Gryffindor was pissed and upset that they had lost but Slytherin looked like this was the best day of their life. As the boys and other injured players were taken to the hospital wing there was only one question going though everyone's head

Who was Slytherin going to choose.
