Deadly Secrets Shouldn't Be Told

Chapter 4- The secret of Hogwarts past.

Fate. Is it a myth that fate exists? Does every action have a reaction? For everything we do, do we cause something else to happen? For taking a risk, do we pay the consequences? Or do we gain knowledge and wisdom? Perhaps both.

Hermione's POV-

The hall was dark but I kept walking. Where? I didn't know. I came to a wall at the end of the hall and noticed there were pictures on the wall. Through the darkness, I could barely make them out. Out of nowhere, a light in the hall turned on. I jumped and was about to run back but then a voice spoke.

"No need to be afraid. I'm just a ghost in a painting," the voice said in a sweet, polite, woman's voice. I turned around slowly and found myself standing in front of a picture of a beautiful lady with long flowing silver hair and stunning gray eyes. She was wearing long black dress robes and it looked like she was standing in the astronomy tower.

"Who.Who are you?" I asked, trying to be polite as possible but my arms had goosebumps and I was afraid of the answer she would give.

"My name is Skye Bornocheg. I used to go here when i was your age. That was a long time ago. Maybe about 40 years ago." she said and she floated out of the portrait and was now in front of me. "So what would you like to know?" she asked me. i raised an eyebrow what was she talking about?

"Apparently you don't know. I am in this hallway all alone to give wisdom and knowledge to those in need of it. My hall is hidden but those who seek help and answers can always find it. If you have any questions or anything you should ask Me." she said. I thought for a moment.

"If you don't mind me asking, what house were you in when you went here?" I asked her.

"I was in Gryffindor. However, I was later in Slytherin. Have you learned anything about the school in the year 1961?" I shook my head no. She sighed "That year something happened. I remember it as if it was yesterday. We were in the Great Hall eating when the headmaster at the time stood up and announced something that would change some of our lives." she closed her eyes for a second recalling the memory. "He told all 6th years to stay after lunch in the Great Hall. Everyone was confused but after all the other years left He stood up again."

"He told us that he was sitting in his office when the sorting hat, which was on a shelf in the room, spoke to him. It told him and I remember his words exactly 'the sorting hat told me we need to have another sorting for 6th years immediately or danger would follow.' those words seemed to scare everyone in the hall. We were scared. Why would we want to be sorted again?" She sighed again. "I guess all good things have to come to an end."

"So you were put then in Slytherin?" I asked her slowly. She nodded. "Well what happened? Was everyone put into different houses? And did 'danger' follow? And why isn't this in Hogwarts A History? "

"Only about 10 of the 40 of us were reassigned houses. No danger followed really and it isn't in Hogwarts A History because they don't want anyone to know. They wanted to keep it hidden. It seems, they have. Why are you here so early? What is your name?"

"I'm Hermione Granger. I don't exactly know why I am here. Well I know for safety but I'm not quite getting the big picture."

"Oh so you are the one Dumbledore was telling the teachers about. You have an extraordinary past, you also have a gift, and you just haven't realized it yet. I can tell you are scared. You have no idea who you are, your lonely, Hermione Granger is gone forever. Who takes her place? The long lost heir to the darkness. You are a lost child, you don't want the dark power." She said.

I nodded. It was all true. I didn't know who I was.

"Hard obstacles will come this year. For everyone at Hogwarts but mostly for you. You must pick a path this year. Not right now. You haven't learned enough about your heritage. You should think wisely Hermione and always remember who you used to be and what you used to believe in. You should go now." Skye said. She went back to her painting.

I was about to walk away but she stopped. "One more question, how did you die Skye?" she asked. She heard Skye sigh deeply.

"My sister did something that apparently Voldermont didn't want to be done. He killed my sister and her husband, then he came and asked me for some information I couldn't give him. He killed me to. I had a picture of me painted before so when I died I came here. Dumbledore put me here to help lost children like yourself." Skye said. I nodded and walked away. As I got to the end of the hall where I came in, I thought I heard Skye's voice, a silent whisper say 'you look so much like her' but it was probably my imagination.

A/N- yes short and pointless but it isn't going to be pointless after the next chapter. I had to add it and I had to stop it there. More Draco in the next chapter to. No romance for a while though. So please go review!!!!
