A/N- Alright, well, this is it. Again, sorry about the delay. I have a more important authors note at the end, so don't forget to read it!
The entire school seemed to be in shock. Hermione thought about the rough morning she had endured. She hadn't seen Ron since Dumbledore called her to his office. And no one had heard from Alexis. Hermione walked down to the great hall for dinner.
She took her usual place near the end of the table. She looked to Harry's vacant seat, and then to Alexis's usually empty seat. She looked to the seat next to her and sighed. That was where Colin used to sit. She let 1 tear drop, and then stopped. Something was wrong. There was another vacant seat. Ron's.
* * *
Ron sat by Harry's bedside, watching for signs of movement. He used to confide in Harry, before the quidditch incident. Now, all he could do is talk and hope Harry would listen.
"Harry, what did I do? I was so close, and yet so far…" Ron said.
Harry simply lay there.
"Of course, you've never had this problem," Ron continued, " You always got the girls! Famous Harry Potter with his defeat of the dark lord, his looks, and his quidditch talents! Of course you always get what you want!"
Ron was practically yelling now.
"Why can't I have anything in life, huh? Why do I have to come from a poor family? Why can't I win the love and affection of the only girl I've ever loved, huh? Why is my life completely screwed? Well, be happy that you're Harry Potter, and not some loser like me! I HATE YOU, HARRY!" He shouted.
He instantly regretted saying that.
"I'm sorry Harry…" He said as he ran out of the hospital wing.
Ron proceeded to the great hall for dinner.
"I can't believe I said all that to Harry," Ron wondered, aloud, " What was I thinking? Thank goodness he couldn't hear me."
Something moved in the hallway. Ron spun around to see who or what was there, but the only thing there was darkness down the hall. Ron shrugged and walked on.
"So, still seeing your little friend?"
Ron stopped. Someone was talking to him, but no one was visible.
"Who's there?" Ron asked.
"Oh, someone you care deeply about."
Alexis stepped out from behind a suit of armor. She smiled flirtingly at him. He turned away in disgust.
"Aww Ronniekins, why do you hate me so? Can't you give me another chance?" Alexis purred. She started to put her arms around his neck. He backed away from her.
"Leave me alone," He said.
"Oh, but I'm afraid I can't do that," She replied.
Suddenly all the lights in the hall went out. One scream was heard and a door slammed.
* * *
Hermione was relaxing in the dorms when she heard the news.
"Hey Hermione, have you heard the latest?" asked Ginny.
"No, what's going on?"
"It's Ron."
Hermione jumped up like a rocket.
"What happened? Is he okay? Has he been hurt?"
Ginny grinned devilishly.
" I never knew YOU cared so much about him, Hermione…"
"Oh, drop the romance ideas and tell me what happened!"
"Okay okay okay. What the rumor is, is that he's been kidnapped!"
"By who?"
"Well, n o one has seen much of Alexis either…"
Hermione said nothing. She stood up, grabbed her wand, and walked to the door.
"Hey! Where are you going?"
"I'm going to go kick some serious Alexis butt."
* * *
Hermione didn't know exactly what she was going to do. It was the first thing that popped into her head at the moment. She knew she had to do something, but what?
She didn't know why, but she just started walking. She walked all the way to the Potions dungeons and past. In fact, she was going places she had never been before on Hogwarts grounds.
She walked deeper and deeper under the school, for no exact reason, when she heard voices. Well, to be more exact, one voice. Hermione peeked into the new and strange room.
Alexis. There she was, but she didn't look like herself. I mean, she looked human, but still…something was wrong.
"Ah, my plan is working perfectly…" Said Alexis, aloud, "Soon the humans will be nothing!"
Hermione took a closer look. Alexis's eyes we a deep brown, instead of the usual color, and her voice was different. Hermione took a closer look, and her eyes seemed to flash red.
"She's evil," Hermione thought, "PURE evil. And I can't let her live."
She looked around the room for Ron.
She spotted him, curled up in a chair, fast asleep. She sighed, and hoped he wasn't hurt. Hermione crept in.
"Who's there?" Said Alexis.
"Only your cousin, who is almost shamed to be related to you," Hermione replied.
"Ah, I see you have heard of the Prophecy?" Alexis grinned as she said this.
"Yes. It will be quite interesting to see results, Alexis dear." Hermione said.
Alexis's eyes started to glow even more. She took out her wand and started to send unbelievable forces at Hermione. Even the most powerful wizards could not have heard of it. Each time, Hermione was blasted back and for the first time in her life, she had no idea what to do.
"I don't want to do this!" She thought, "Why is this my responsibility?"
Hermione was sprawled on the ground. One more good blast would finish her off…when a white rose shot from somewhere, and landed beside her ((A/N: There is a purpose for this. This sounds like something else, I know. It's supposed to. I'm drifting away from Fearless a little bit…and, if you guys don't really like what it's kinda based on now, TOO BAD! I give you kudos points if you even know what it is, though. You can try to take a guess in the reviews, if u want. Keyword that gives it away: Rose))
"Do not give up!"
Hermione looked up.
"Huh? Who is that?" Hermione asked.
She looked around the room and saw a figure framed in the doorway. A guy. He was dressed in black robes. Hermione could see that he had deep blue eyes. She couldn't exactly tell his hair color, however, but it was light. She figured he couldn't have had black or brown hair...but, she knew that he was CUTE.
"I said, don't give up!" The boy said. He threw a sword down by her.
"What the heck am I supposed to do with this?" She asked.
"You'll know…" He said, as he seemed to fade away.
Hermione picked up the sword. It looked much like the one of Godric Gryffindor. She looked closer, and realized it was. The bottom started to open up.
"What the-" Hermione started to say.
Her wand flew up by itself and went inside it. Then, the amethyst charm on her necklace started to glow. It started to rise out of the necklace.
"HEY!" Hermione shouted, as she tried to reach for it, " Give that back!"
But the charm took it's place in the middle of the rubies. And Hermione grasped it. All of a sudden, everything changed.
Hermione felt a new sense of power rush through her. It felt…a bit different the regular magic. It was almost like she had wanted to do this for so long…but never knew how. She seemed invincible. She looked down and found herself in clingy purple velvet robes and an emerald green cloak. And instead of her usual ponytail, her hair was wavy, and down to the middle of her back. She was almost scared of this power now. She wasn't even thinking or looking at Ron. It was just her and Alexis.
Alexis was startled at this, but wasn't afraid. Hermione could see this mist inside of her. It was black. Voldemort. She knew it was him. The ultimate evil. The evil no one yet had truly destroyed. Alexis was changing as well. She seemed to be addicted to black, because that was everything she had. Her sword had emeralds and onyx in it, and it looked very evil. But, Hermione wasn't afraid.
"BE PREPARED TO DIE, HERMIONE!" Alexis yelled as a nasty black light came out of the end of her sword.
"So," Hermione thought, "We're not swordfighting. It's almost like a duel…and the sword is my wand…"
Words started coming to her head.
"You must be punished, Alexis! You have done wrong!" Hermione shouted.
Purple light exploded from her sword and started to push against the black. Each girl was forcing more and more power in. Hermione could feel that she was becoming weaker and weaker…
"Never…let…the…evil…win…" Said the same voice, inside her head.
"Help…protect…me…from…it… I'm with you, Hermione. I trust you…And I will do my best to protect you…but my magic is weak and you must help me…save me…" Said the voice of the boy.
"YOU ARE FINISHED, HERMIONE GRANGER! SLYTHERIN WILL LIVE ON!" Yelled Alexis.
"NO!" Hermione said, as she felt the strength come back. She put both hands on the sword, " You are finished, Alexis Moore! You are punished!"
A more powerful purple light erupted from the sword.
"What is this?" Asked Alexis.
It started to surround her.
"NOOOOOOOOOOOO!" Yelled Alexis.
The mist started to escape from her mouth and faded. Alexis herself disappeared with a shimmer, and Hermione collapsed on the ground.
"Good…work," Said the boy. Hermione couldn't see him. She could only hear him in your head, "I'll be back soon, Hermione. I can't ever be parted from you for too long. I'm on your side, and I am there for you. I love you, Hermione."
The boy stopped talking. Hermione got up.
"Where is he?" She asked aloud, "Where is the white rose boy?"
"Huh?" Said Ron, in the chair. He had just woken up. Hermione hadn't noticed him during the battle. It was like he wasn't there.
"Oh, this amazing boy who carries white roses! He said he was there for me, and that he loved me!" Said Hermione, smiling.
"Oh.." It was all Ron could say. Someone else had taken her heart, and it wasn't him. He had no idea what to say or do now.
"Ahem!"
Professor Dumbledore stood in the doorway.
"It would be nice if you two came back to the common room," He said, " You must be exhausted."
"What happened to Alexis?" Asked Hermione.
"Currently, Miss Moore is in the hospital wing, unconscious." Said Professor Dumbledore. Hermione knew not to ask any more questions on the subject. And, if her eyes weren't deceiving her, she saw him wink at something before following the two students out the door…
From Ron's Journal…
Something is screwed up. What happened? Where did I go wrong? Someone took her from me…
And yet I don't feel like I usually do. Last I remember was that I was sleeping, and when I woke up I felt different. It's like I don't know who I am anymore…I will find out who I am, though. I'll make it my mission in life. Even though I don't get my true love, I'll figure myself out.
Ron
From Hermione's Journal…
Wow. I almost don't believe I did that. I don't even understand it. Is this truly about the prophecy? Oh, and that guy…white rose boy I'll call him now. He was so…perfect. I must find him again. I also feel that the evil is not truly gone…Will I ever fight again? Will I meet up with white rose boy? This is ever so confusing…
Hermione

Two ghosts watched in the dungeon.
"Well, the prophecy was finally filled," Said Helga Hufflepuff, happily.
"Don't be too sure, Helga dear," Said Rowena, wisely, "Voldemort and Salazar escaped Alexis. We don't know where they are."
"So, you're saying they're back?" Asked Helga.
"We just don't know…" Said Rowena, as the two ghosts faded.
Alexis was still in the hospital wing. She lay unconscious still. She tossed and turned, like there was a battle going on inside of her. Suddenly, a note appeared by her bedside.
It read:
BE PREPARED TO DIE, HERMIONE! WE AREN'T GONE YET!
*~*The end?*~*
A/N: So, was it good? Now, here's my question. Would you like me to continue this story? I have ideas, but I won't continue till some people want me to. If I get enough people to say yes in the reviews, look for at least 1 more sequel in the works…bye for now!
