Hermione was at the Malfoy Manor on a Sunday afternoon when Voldemort
called purebloods in his inner circle. Therefore, Lucius left, and Hermione
was left at the Malfoy Manor with Narcissa. Hermione made some dinner for
the two of them. Hermione ate and listened to Narcissa talk on and on about
various things. After Hermione and Narcissa were done eating, Hermione
washed the dishes and left for Hogwarts. She walked to the school from the
Forbidden Forest.
Harry was waiting inside - Snape had not erased Harry's memory. Harry grabbed her arm when she got inside. "Why?" he asked. "It was not my choice," Hermione said, knowing perfectly well what he was asking her. She refused to look up at him; she just looked at the floor, wishing he would let her go. He did. She then looked up at him, with tears in her eyes. She was really beginning to hate life, what was she to do? She had friends, death eaters like herself, but they wanted to kill her other friend, whom she had been friends with for almost five years. "What's wrong?" he asked, and then led her up the stairs. Tears were now running down her cheeks. "They are going to kill you, you are not safe," Hermione said very quietly. People roaming the halls stared at the couple as they passed. Harry said nothing, he had figured Voldemort would try to kill him again, and for some reason, he did not worry. "Well, are you one of them?" he asked, sort of teasing her. "No, I'm a mudblood. According to them, I'm not worthy of a job like that," she said. They entered the Gryffindor common room. Hermione walked to the secret passageway to take her to the Prefect common room. Hermione ran into her room and fell asleep.
The week was extremely strange. Snape was even nicer in Potions to Hermione than usual, Draco was even acting strange. It was as if they knew something she did not. Snape's kindness put most Gryffindors, Slytherins, and herself in shock. Draco just grinned. Something was up, but she was not exactly sure she liked the way things were going, she had a feeling she did not want to know what they knew. Moreover, she had never been so right in her life.
A/N - A bit of a... um... teaser? Eh? I'll add a bit more tomorrow, I only had enough time to write this, most of my chapters will probably short, for reasons posted in my last "note." Plus, IIM is coming up (research papers). Really sorry about it being short, but I hope it is interesting. Is this a cliffhanger? I have trouble making those. *laughs* Well, I have to go! Happy New Year everyone, and thank you for all your support, you do not know how much all your kind words mean to me! =)
