Chapter 10
Hermione
A week ago…Thoughts that she tries to hold back break the floodwalls and carry her away. Back to when…
It seems like it's happening again to me. This loss, that eats away at me. It's like I offended something, fate…
First, with Victor…
\\His voice, cold and his eyes distant. "You handle this, it's your problem not mine!"\\
No one knows. Not Dumbledore, Harry, Ron, my parents….No one.
I didn't want the responsibility… But the feelings grew and then I wanted it all.
Barely two weeks.
AND NOW IT'S HAPPENING AGAIN!!!!
This helpless pain…what am I to do.
Three days later…Desperation claws at her heart. Hermione Granger took the news that her baby was alive as a chance to make it right. She knew what to do.
To: Ministry of Magic
My name is Hermione Granger, I'm seventeen years old and about to be a mother for the first time.
I fear for my baby's life.
A potion accident took an egg from my body, fertilized it, and mistakenly implanted it into the right side of the stomach of Professor Snape, the baby's father.
He doesn't want my baby to live and has let everyone think he had aborted it. I found out that was a horrible lie.
I am petitioning for full custody of my baby starting now, while Professor Snape still carries the baby.
There is an even stranger aspect that needs to be brought forward. The potion that resulted in the baby's conception has altered the child. Enhanced the naturally occurring magic that flows through her tiny person. It is something that I find hard to explain. My child can somehow with either magic or some kind of mental ability affect the world from inside the womb. This situation needs the Ministry's attention.
I beg you, Please help me. Time is of the essence. My baby's life is at stake.

Within the hour another owl flew from Hogwarts.
To: Mr. And Mrs. LilllyWater
I am writing you on behalf of my unborn child. I need your help in determining what my baby's special gifts are and how to best accommodate them.
There are special circumstances surrounding my unborn child. A mishap in a potions class resulted in my baby being implanted into the baby's father.
The baby's father is unfit. We thought he had aborted the baby for a short time, and then our fears were multiplied tenfold when the baby's gifts became apparent. We thought Hogwarts had a new ghost.
Well, that is not the case. My baby can, like a ghost, move things with either her mind or with some kind of magic, wandless of course! Her special gifts need your expertise.
I need your help. Please owl me back with the wonderful news that you, Mr. And Mrs. LilllyWater, will help my unborn baby.

A/n: I hope this helps you to understand what is going on. I wanted to focus on Severus for a while and then shift to Hermione. But next chapter, Back to Snapey's pov!
