Black and White Chapter 2 By Lunar Ice
****************************************************************************
The party had lasted until the early hours of the morning. As usual, Hermione was the first one up in the Gryffindor tower. She headed down the dormitory stairs into the empty common room. The morning sunlight shone brightly on the many wall portraits, waking up their occupants.
Hermione pushed through the portrait of the Fat Lady and headed to the Great Hall for her last breakfast there.ever. Normally she would've waited for Ron and Harry, but she liked the unusual quiet filling the halls.
"Good morning, Miss Granger. You're the only on up this morning." Said the Fat Lady.
"Good morning to you too. The graduation party lasted well into the night, so everyone is still asleep."
"Off to the Great Hall, I presume?"
"Yes, for my final meal." She smiled and continued on her way around the corner.
A cloaked figure of about six feet walked out from behind a statue and followed her. Hermione, unaware of his presence, continued on her way. Next thing she knew, a pair of strong arms were trying to tie a handkerchief around her mouth.
He had a strong hold on her, twisting her arm up behind her back. Hermione struggled to break from his grip, screaming for help, but the handkerchief successfully tied to her face muffled her voice.
"Don't struggle," the voice whispered in her ear, "and I won't hurt you."
~~~~*~~~~
"What time does the train leave, Harry?" Ron asked while jumping on his trunk to close it. It seemed that he had quite a few more things then he came with, probably all the gifts he had received from various girls throughout the school.
"Noon!" Seamus yelled from under his bed, apparently looking for something underneath it.
"Wow! I didn't know there were two Harry's in Gryffindor!" Ron said sarcastically while ducking from a pillow thrown at his head by the reemerged Seamus.
The five Gryffindor boys headed down to the common room after packing a few last items. "Where's Hermione?" Seamus asked, looking up the stairs to the girls' dormitories.
"She's always been an early bird. Maybe she's down in the Great Hall already?" Harry suggested. As they walked to the Great Hall, Neville noticed Seamus's huge smile.
Neville elbowed Ron in the side. "What's up with him?"
"I just didn't know that Hermione liked me so much!" Seamus said, obviously overhearing what Neville had said.
"I think she was more excited about finally having a boyfriend then actually going out with you." Dean laughed at his own comment. Seamus lunged for him, but landed on the floor.
"Morning, mates!" Ernie Macmillan called from down the hall. "Are you ready to finally leave this castle after seven years?"
"Yea, I guess, but I'll miss it. All the fun times we had together. Right Harry?" Ron asked his best friend.
"Oh, yea, really fun almost being killed practically every year and trying to save the whole school from some stupid journal." Harry answered sarcastically.
The six friends continued toward the Great Hall. They entered to find only a group of first years at the Gryffindor table.
"Hey, I wonder where Hermione is?" Seamus asked nervously.
"Why are you nervous? Its just Hermione we're talking about!" Ernie said.
"It's just, well, it's my first day of actually having a girlfriend, let alone it being Hermione, the hottest chick in the school."
"See, that's where you're wrong, mate. See, there's this little chick called Lavender. You've heard of her, haven't you? And her friend Parvati? Oh, look, here they come now!" He rushed over to the girls entering the Great Hall, leaving Harry, Dean, and Ernie laughing at his stupidity.
"Hey, Ernie, why don't you join us at our table? Last day of school, the professors won't care." Ernie nodded and joined them at the Gryffindor table.
~~~~*~~~~
Hermione woke up on a cold stone floor. She brushed her hair out of her eyes to get a better look at her surroundings. She was in a room with a big, metal door, one small, barred window, and no furniture. Her hands were tied behind her back, her ankles tied together, and her mouth was gagged.
The young girl screamed at the top of her lungs, but she could barely hear herself through the cloth. She was shivering, even through her Hogwarts' robes. Her head was spinning from lack of oxygen.
"Yes, sir. I have successfully kidnapped Potter's little girlfriend." A voice echoed from outside the room.
"Excellent. It's just a matter of time now." She heard two pairs of feet shuffling away from the door, echoing down the hallway.
Just a matter of time? Just a matter of time before what? And since when was she Harry's girlfriend? She was dating Seamus. not Harry. 'That prat has it all wrong,' she thought, 'Seamus and Harry are going to come and find me, before "that" time comes, whatever that meant.'
Was she wrong...
~~~~*~~~~
"Harry! I still can't find Hermione!" Seamus and Dean came running up to Harry, Ron, and Ernie, who were boarding the train. "The train's leaving in ten minutes and I'm afraid she'll miss it!"
"Calm down, mate. She's seventeen, she'll manage to get on the train by herself."
"But Parvati said her trunk wasn't there when she woke up this morning!" Seamus panted, out of breath from running. He leaned on the train, holding himself up.
"Don't worry. maybe she got on the train already?" Ernie suggested, trying hard not to sound worried. He shrugged his shoulders and continued into an empty compartment. The other four followed him and sat down.
"How about a game of chess, Harry?" Ron asked, pulling out his wand to conjure a small table to play on.
"What about your fan club?" Harry laughed so hard his sides hurt. "I'm sorry, mate! It's just, well, it's kind of pathetic how Lavender and Parvati hang all over you all the time!"
"Well, it's okay for my girlfriend to hang on me, isn't it now?" Ron said, crossing his arms and smirking. Harry stopped laughing instantly and starred at Ron, a blank expression on his face.
"You have a girlfriend? Which one?" Harry said, still starring blankly at his best friend.
"Lavender, of course. Parvati just doesn't get it." Ron said, smiling at Harry's facial expressions. "Well, how about that game of chess?" Ron conjured a small table and pulled out his wizard chessboard and players. Harry dug through his trunk looking for his pieces when they heard the train whistle, signaling the department of the Hogwarts Express for the last time for the seventh years.
Seamus seemed to be holding his breath and finally let it out as the Hogsmeade train station disappeared from view. "Well, hopefully she's already on the train and I have nothing to worry about. I just wanted a kiss for crying out loud!" he shouted, which caused everyone to look up at him. "Sorry, just talking out loud."
"Are you saying, Seamus, that you've never been kissed before by someone other than you mother?" Ron said, ordering his knight to behead one of Harry's pawns. Seamus blushed deep scarlet and he turned to look out the window.
"Well then, it seems to me we have even bigger problems then Hermione being missing." Dean said, ducking from a flying pawn head.
"Would you guys just shut up? I'm going to go look for Hermione." He stood up and stormed out of the compartment, slamming the door behind him.
"Someone didn't have their coffee this morning." Ernie said starring at the door.
~~~~*~~~~
Hermione's head rolled about her shoulders as she drifted in and out of consciousness. The lack of oxygen seemed to make the room spin. She shivered beneath the heavy cloth of her school robes, which wasn't surprising. Many nights the trio would stroll along the lake in the pouring rain and would freeze even through the robes.
During what she knew was a short period of consciousness, she looked around the small dungeon-like-room for a way out of some kind. She noticed her wand chained to a wall by a few simple locking curses.
The moonlight drifted across the floor to her feet, stating that night had finally come. She had no idea what time it was or where she was for that matter. It was about seven a.m. when she was taken, and it didn't get dark until about nine, so she guessed it was after nine or so.
'Where are Harry and Seamus? And Ron? Aren't they supposed to be here by now? God, what did I do wrong? What do they want now? I suppose this is Voldemort's doing.he's always taking the things closet to Harry's heart to lure him in...but that voice...it sounded so familiar. I know I've heard it. That mean, awful, menacing voice.but where?' She fell unconscious.
~~To Be Continued~~
a/n: good? Bad? Evil? Surprising? Eventful? Fluffy? Just a few adjectives I added to make you want to read on.yes, it will get fluffy! I think.but I could be wrong grins evilly just so you know, I don't know when I will get the next chapter up.maybe tomorrow, maybe today, maybe next month.well, school starts on Thursday so I'll be busy for a while!! Thanks to all my reviewers!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
