Hermione stood up quickly, looking back at herself. Behind her 'clone' was other clones of all the people in the room with her.
"What's happened?" She asked, the clone. Slowly, the Hermione she was looking at started fading away and in her place was a woman, middle-aged standing there looking gruffy.
"Be a dear and sit." She said to all of them, she motioned her wand towards them and they were pushed back against the wall.
The people behind her had turned into their normal state and Hermione, even saw Lucious Malfoy. Who had taken the shape of his own son.
"What's going on?" the real Draco Malfoy asked as Seamus started to wake.
"Son, important business." Her replied. The woman who had imitated Hermione stood their and clasped her hands together. On the cuff of her robe was a patch that had the letters "DE" surrounded by snakes.
"Now, that you've woken, I would like you to pull out loose hairs from your head." She said.
They weren't stupid. Hermione could see a large cauldron brewing something, magically. Hermione looked at the color and recognized the ingredients. They were making a polyjuice potion.
"You were all much simpler to handle when you were in an unconscious state." She said, motioning two men from behind her. The men grabbed each person by their throat and ripped out some hair.
Hermione stared at the door which shut itself, quickly as if it knew she was wondering how to escape.
"The polyjuice potion?" She heard Seamus mutter. He had woken up and was standing beside Fred and George.
"Yes. How did you think we were becoming you?" She asked. Seamus began to answer. "That was a rhetorical question, idiot boy."
Hermione moved over near Fred and George and away from the lady.
"How long have you been here?" She muttered to Seamus.
"Longer then you have." He whispered back. Hermione stood up straight.
"What are you doing with us?" She asked. The woman looked at Hermione.
"Well, since your never getting out of here, might be fair to tell you." She began softly. "We are using your body and many others to kill Harry Potter, Dumbledore and take over the school. Now you know."
Hermione froze, everyone gasped.

"Hermione, theres no way of getting out." Seamus said to her. Hermione had been pounding on the door, and tryin to open the windows. They were magically bound.
"You don't even want to try?" Hermione said, growing angry. Seamus shrugged.
"We can't. No use wasting our energry." He said simply. Hermione crossed her arms over her chest. It had been a week since she had woken up and she had been trying to get out all week.
"I don't know about you, but I wanna get out!" Hermione nearly screamed. She tried another window but ended up in a heap on the floor, crying.
Seamus patter her head awkwardly. "Don't cry."
Hermione looked up. "If there is one thing I've learned from being one of Harry Potter's best friends, is never give up."
Seamus stood there, watching her for a minute but she didn't continue to cry. Instead she got up and started inspecting the place.
Just then, the doors opened and two men came in carrying something. Or someone. It was Dean.
Hermione heard Seamus gasp. Dean was his best friend.
"He's alive right?" He asked rushing foward. Dean was breathing lightly and the one of the two men grabbed some of his hair.
Seamus sat down by the wall looking put out. Hermione sat down next to him.
"He'll be alright. You were like that when I came in." Hermione said trying to calm him down.
She reached out and gave Seamus a friendly hug, to console him. Hermione breathed in his scent. It was as if someone was wearing light cologne for to long. It wasn't bad. It was comforting.
Hermione let go of him and he gave her a week smile before settling back against the wall.
Hermione stood up and went over to inspect Dean. She hear a scream from outside of the room and looked out the creak in the door just in time to see Harry clutch his forehead, while Hermione's cloan laughed. Ron put his arm around his shoulder and helped him back to the common room. Hermione wished she were with them. If they knew that wasn't her.
What if they never get out?
