Here is part 2 of Hermione's confession.

As always I do not own Harry Potter or Criminal Minds.

"I know I have told you all that my parents were dead. That is not all true. Jean and Sam Granger are alive. They are just under different names. We knew that Harry was going to hunt the Horcruxes. Ron and I were not about to let him go alone. Ron's family would be protected by their blood status. Even though they were blood traitors they were still pureblood. Plus there was too many of them to hide. Me however, I knew my parents would be at risk. I had told them an awful lot about Harry and I knew if Death Eaters came they would be tortured and killed. So I changed their memories. I made them believe that their names were Monica and Wendell Wilkins that they had no children and they wanted to move to Australia. I left them knowing that even if I survived my parents would never know who I was. I want back to our house after the war and found that Death Eaters had come after my parents had left. They had destroyed it in rage. The muggle police have it marked down as a gas explosion I think."

"We went into hiding after the Death Eaters killed the Minister and took over the Ministry. We managed to find a Horcrux but we had no way of destroying it. We were camping in the woods when a double agent of the Order managed to send us a sword to destroy it. We got rid of it and were planning our next move when we were captured."

Hermione started shaking as memories of the Manor came flooding back to her. Penelope moved to comfort her by putting her arm around Hermione's shoulders.

Hermione started speaking again her voice breaking up "We tr-tried to out run them. But we couldn't. I sent a hex at Ha – Harry to mask his identity. But they knew me and Ron were friends of Harry's. They took us to Malfoy Manor. They were about to call Voldemort when Bellatrix saw the sword. It was supposed to be in her vault. She had the boys thrown into the cellar and kept me out to question me."

Hermione had to wipe the tears pouring from her eyes before she could speak again. "There are 3 curses in the wizarding world that are called unforgivable. The use of any of them on another wizard will earn you a life sentence at Azkaban, the wizard prison. There is the killing curse, and the imperius curse, which allows a person to control another, and the cruciatus curse. That curse is also called the torture curse because it causes whoever is hit with it to be in an unimaginable amount of pain. Bellatrix would hold me under the curse for 4 minutes at a time for almost a half hour. She demanded to know how we got into her vault. Every time she casted that curse it felt like my whole body was in fire. All my nerves felt like I was being stabbed over and over again. You can go insane from the pain. Bellatrix actually drove my friend Neville's parents insane after Voldemorts first fall. When she was done she sat on my legs and carved the word into my arm. Mudblood is a very foul name for someone of non magic decent. She wanted to make sure that I would be recognized as what I was."

"We escaped with the help of a house elf named Dobby. He saved us all but as we were leaving Bellatrix threw her knife and killed him."

"After her reaction we knew there was something in her vault she did not want us to see. So we broke into the wizard bank. We found another horcrux. We knew there was one at Hogwarts so we went there. Voldemort found out what we were doing and came to Hogwarts. The Professor's secured the castle while Harry searched and Ron and I destroyed the one we found in the vault."

"That was the start of the Battle of Hogwarts. We managed to find the horcrux and get rid of it. The last one left was this snake that never left the side of Voldemort. We knew we had to kill the snake if we had any hope of destroying him. We were running in the castle when I saw Remus battling Dolohov. I saw Remus fall and Dolohov about to kill him. I sent a stunner and hit him directly in his chest throwing him into a wall and knocking him out. We must have been fighting for hours when the Death Eaters suddenly left the castle. We heard Voldemorts voice echoing across the castle. He said that we would have an hour to take care of our injured or dead. Then he told Harry he would be waiting for him in the Forbidden Forest and if Harry did not come to him in that time he would kill everyone in the castle."

"Before he died our double agent gave Harry memories. It showed us that when Voldemort tried to kill Harry as a baby and the curse rebounded a piece of his soul detached and went into Harry. Harry was a horcrux that was never meant to be made. Harry knew he had to get rid of it. He went into the forest and met Voldemort willingly. Because he did the piece of Voldemort's soul that was in Harry was killed. Harry faked being dead and the death eaters brought his body back to the castle."

"Seeing Harry like that was worse then you can imagine. He was supposed to be the one to defeat Voldemort, but in that moment he just looked like the 17 year old boy he was. Neville managed to destroy the snake and right after he did Harry stopped faking dead. He defeated Voldemort in the Great Hall. The Death Eaters that did not flee were rounded up and thrown in Azkaban to await their trials for crimes committed against Wizard and muggle kind. And the three of us were branded as the Golden Trio by the newspapers."

Hermione looked at the team. Penelope was still sitting next to her but everyone else had yet to move. Hermione could see the tears on J.J and Emily's faces as well as Rossi's. They all had a look of terror and shock etched on their faces. The worse person to look at was Spencer. He looked lost and hurt. It tore Hermione to see him like that.

"So that's why Dolohov was after me. He has never forgiven me for living and for defeating him in the battle. You also now know I am a witch. And now you have a choice to make."

"What kind of choice?" asked Hotch

"Wizarding law states that we are not allowed to ever use magic in front of muggles. If we have to the muggles memories of magic are removed to prevent our world of exposure. I called in a favor from our Minister, he was the man who you saw me talking to. If you all agree to never speak of the magical world to anyone other then each other and also agree to have a small jinx put on you to prevent it then you can keep your memories. But if even one person refuses then everyone has to have their memories erased." Hermione said looking at each person in her living room. "I will leave you to decide." She said as she stood up and walked out of the room and into the kitchen.

Wow *wipes brow* that was hard. I was trying to fit in everything I could that was important. So what do you think? Up next see what the team decides and we finally get to see Spencer's reaction. Hehehe *evil laugh*
