All three girls greeted Hermione as she stepped out of the fireplace and onto the hardwood floor. The room was painted in a pale green. Antiques were placed strategically around the room giving it a feel of comfort and warmth. Lavender lead them all into the kitchen. Hermione looked around in awe as she sat at the small oak dining table. The floor was a dark green that matched the marble counter tops and the wallpaper. An island sat in the middle of the kitchen and a bay window by the sink over looked the vast gardens. Lavender prepared the girls and a snack and they all sat down for a day full of chatting. Just as the conversation was about to begin Hedwig flew in the window.
" It's Hedwig. Is Harry all right?" Hermione asked as she landed in front of her. She hooted at Hermione and she smiled. " I'll read the letter, don't worry. Would you like a treat?" Hedwig this time hooted three times in what seemed to be an angry manner. " All right." Hermione untied the letter and began to read it.
Dear Hermione, Ron told me that you were going to Lavender's house for the weekend with Ginny and Pavarti. I hope you four have fun. I wrote to you to make sure everything is fine. Don't worry everything is okay here. Well, except for the Dursley's, but what can I say. Don't worry so much this summer about homework and things. Try to relax and have fun. Also I was wondering if you could watch Hedwig because the Dursley's want me to lock him up and I couldn't do it again. If you can't that's okay. There's no reason to write back if you're going to keep him. Well I've go to run. Uncle Vernon is calling. Sincerely, Harry
" I'll watch you Hedwig. No problem at all. Now would you like a treat?" He hooted once and then flew to perch on the window. Hermione refolded the letter and returned her attention back to the girls. They stared at her and she began to feel uncomfortable. " Is something wrong?" she asked. Ginny was the first to get her wits about her.
" Hermione you. you just talked to an owl. How did you do that?" Ginny asked stumbling over her words. Never in her life had she seen a human talk to animal. Sure sometimes pets obeyed, but the never answered you or you never understood when they did.
" You've got to swear to keep it a secret. It's really important. Not even Ron and Harry know." The girls looked shocked to hear this. The trio told each other everything. What could Hermione possibly be hiding?
" Well what is it Hermione?" Pavarti insisted.
" Do any of you know what a Mistress is?" she asked looking around to make sure no one was listening in.
" Sure. Everyone in the Wizarding World knows what a Mistress is. We should be learning about Mistress's this year in Defense Against the Dark Arts, Charms, Transfiguration, Care of Magical Creatures, Herbology, and even Potions." Lavender answered her.
" Isn't a Mistress a direct descendant of Rowena Ravenclaw?" Ginny asked.
" Also she's supposed to be the most powerful witch. She does magic without a wand and receives all her powers by the time she's sixteen. Supposedly Rowena Ravenclaw left a diary behind telling of these powers, but no one has ever found it. Not even Dumbledore knows where it is." Pavarti added to everyone else's tidbit.
" Correct. She also is the base of all nature. Otherwise called the Daughter of Nature. Which means she can communicate with animals." It didn't take them very long to figure out what Hermione was hinting at.
" But, no offense or anything, but you're a muggle born." Pavarti said astonished.
" Actually I was adopted by the Granger's when my parents died. I've heard so many stories about how they died I don't know which one is true and Dumbledore hasn't confirmed any of the tales yet. I think he wants me to find out in my own way, in my own time."
" Tell us about it Hermione, please." Ginny insisted. Lavender and Pavarti nodded in agreement.
" Are you sure? I mean."
" Hermione we're supposed to be learning about each other. What better way to start than with each other's stories? You go first and we'll each follow." Lavender told her reassuringly.
" Everyone has a different story about how my parents were killed as I told you before. I was sent to a wizarding orphanage and my last name was changed. A week before I was adopted they sent me to the country and I stayed with an old couple. It was winter so the old man was getting firewood and he took me along. I sat on his lap and he even let me steer the tractor. We brought the firewood back and made a fire. The old woman gave me a bath and put me in my nightclothes. Then we went to sit down by the fire and she read me a story from a dark, velvet green book. But I fell asleep and I never heard the rest of the story.
A lady from the orphanage came to pick me up and take me to my new home. I remember that as I was handed over the smoke was rising out of the chimney. The lady told them thank you for coming down and she put me in the car seat. I turned around to wave good-bye as we drove off but everything was gone. The house, the couple, the shed, the woodpile, everything. Everything, but the smoke. I was three then and I was taken to a foster home. When I was five they brought me back to the country. It was just the same as it had been two years ago. Only this time there was another girl there as well. I found out that the old couple was my grandparents and the little girl was my cousin. She was so smart even though she was only five. She knew everything about everything. Her name was Mystic and she was the most beautiful child. Mystic told me how when she was eight she would become the Keeper of the Stars. She also told me that when I was nine I would begin to get my powers.
I asked how she would be ready to handle keeping track of all the stars in the Universe. 'It's not that hard.' she told me. 'My mum's all ready let me try it once. Besides it's everyone's destiny I'm in charge of. Not just the stars.' I was totally shocked at this, but she wouldn't tell me anymore. Mystic said she wasn't aloud to tell anyone anything about his or her destiny. The only thing she would tell me was ' Always remember nothing is exciting if you know what the outcome is going to be. In three words I can sum up everything I've learned about life: It goes on. Everything is the product of one universal creative effort. There is nothing dead in Nature. Everything is organic and living, and therefore the whole world appears to be a living organism. The old believe everything; the middle-aged suspect everything; the young know everything. The forest is magnificent, yet it contains no perfect trees.' I had no clue what she was talking about, but slowly it is beginning to dawn on me. At least I hope so.
I moved in with the Granger's when I was seven. At the age of nine I was brought to Hogwarts so Dumbledore could monitor my powers. I'm surprised your brothers don't remember me. I think it was Fred and George's first year. It was the second night and we were all eating dinner. I sneezed and everyone gasped. I looked up and Professor Snape wasn't there anymore. I sneezed again and he was back."
" Professor Snape!" Ginny interrupted with a giggle and they all had a good laugh.
" Well, Professor Dumbledore and McGonagall were so pleased. Dumbledore immediately took me to his office and questioned me on what happened. In the middle of my story I sneezed again, but this time I disappeared and reappeared. I just remember how proud and excited he was. He told me to try and Orb to the Great Hall. I had no earthly idea what he was talking about. I just thought of the Great Hall and wished I was there and I was, then I orbed back to his office. ' Wait here for ten minutes and then orb back to the Great hall again.' He told me and then left the office. I did as I was told and then orbed down again. Only this time I disappeared and reappeared in a shower of gold and blue crescent moons. McGonagall was so happy she actually smiled."
" McGonagall? Smile? Uhuh." Pavarti said disbelievingly. Hermione just shook her head.
" Yep. She smiled. I only stayed for another week to perfect everything and then when I was eleven I received my Hogwarts letter and that is basically my story. Now, it's. Ginny's turn." Hermione said picking out Ginny and turning to the side to face her. Ginny smiled nervously at them all.
" Where's that not much to tell."
