Before I begin, I must say a few things. First off, J.K. Rowling owns most of the characters in the story. Most, because snake is an invented character. Next this may alter a few things from the original story. Like, though I'm not sure, I may have the person who died in book 5 be alive. Finally, I want you to realize that this is an "R" rated fic. It is a dark story, and can be inappropriate for younger persons. Okay, I'm going to get the attention of people who may have skipped over this. *****WARNING***** this story contains examples of extreme depression, suicidal behavior and thoughts, self punishment, kidnapping, torture, and rape. If this disturbs you in anyway, don't read. That's a warning, I don't want this story to bother anyone. If none of this bothers your, please, read on. And, please review. Okay, that does it for my warnings and acknowledgements. So, on with the story!
~*Prologue*~
Hermione suffered through a bad experience. It happened after her first year, after she thought her life was perfect. Now, it has been "resolved" or so people think. She has hidden her fear, anguish, and rage from everyone. Now, will this piece of her past come back to haunt her? She never told anyone about what happened, only kept up the rouse that she was fine and nothing was wrong. It appears that she will have to face what happened, for the good of many, but will it finally drive her over the edge.
