Disclaimer: I'm not getting rich off of Harry Potter. Damn

Hey! OMG! I have 50 reviews! Hehe, you should have seen me when I checked my email I flipped out, I was really happy so thank you all very very much! You made me a very happy girl.  Anyway this is just a warning, I kinda have to get things going, so the Draco/Hermione relationship might be moving a little fast for some of you guys likings, but like I said I need to get the story going.

Toothpick/Laura- well I feel honored thanx a ton!

Silentstalkingdragon- Hey Ya I do like Draco, his character is very complex. Umm now about Orlando I think he is brilliant, very talented, I can't decide whether I like his elf hair better than his real hair though, I'm still working that one out.

Okay so got the questions cleared up I think. But anyway here's the next chapter, I'm not in much of a writing mood, but I'll get into it.

Hermione found herself walking in a strange room she had never seen before. The room was all black and white.  She didn't know where she was but she knew why she was there. She looked around the room; it was very plain and bare. She was startled when a deep calming voice filled the room.

"Hermione, my dear." She turned around immediately and looked at her fathers face. "I've secretly hoped this day would come for years. Although, you were never even supposed to find out about all of this. But the time is coming, you'll be much needed." Hermione was a little confused about the last part. What did he mean about the time is coming, and I'll be much needed she wondered.

"What do you mean?" she cautiously asked. He frowned.

"Voldemort's powers are increasing even as we speak, by this time next year if he's not dead; there will be no way to kill him, not even Harry could. Although Harry will have to do the actual killing, you'll play a big part, it's written in the stars." She felt her heart get heavy. She gave him a small smile and a little oh.

"Let's get started then shall we?" she nodded for him to continue "first we'll need to go over the rules. All of your powers are very special, and should not be abused. They each have certain rules for their use."

"That makes sense."

"Yes, so let me begin with your power of traveling through time. In my opinion this is the hardest power to learn. You can go backward and forward through time, although going into the future is harder and not as commonly used. So we'll focus on going back in time. You can go back in time one week at a time, and you can only change one event, in the hopes that it will change everything else that needed to be changed. So you've got to think wisely about what you're going to change. The event that causes you to go back in time in the first place can't have happened for more than 24 hours, other wise you can't go back and change that event. Does that make sense?"

"a little" she said.

"Here's an example. Like if Harry died one day, and you found out about it his death exactly 24 hours and 1 minute after his death occurred you couldn't go back and change it. No one has really understood why we have this rule but anyway. Let's say you find out about his death 23 hours after it has occurred, you can go back one week from that time and change one event. Like prevent him from doing whatever he was going to do that got him killed. So does all of that make sense now?"  Hermione nodded. "Alright that's good. It's all a bit complex, but these rules are all for good reasons. Going back in time is also very complex, but we'll learn how to do that later." He gave Hermione a little bit of time to let it all sink in and he continued. "Reading minds is a bit easier, and involves fewer rules. Once you get good at reading minds you can also access memories, but that is a little harder. There aren't very many rules to reading minds, just as long as you don't abuse it. You understand these powers are to be used for good. So as long as you don't go around pushing your way into everybody's thoughts it will be okay." She laughed at the thought, causing her dad a little chuckle. "Your other 2 powers are telekinesis, and invisibility. Again those 2 don't have many rules attached to them just as long as you don't abuse them. Time is just a very fragile thing and that's why there's so many rules attached to that power. I'll start training you how to use your powers next time now that you know a little bit about them."

 Hermione felt herself slipping away. She tried with everything she had to stay but she soon found herself back in her bed, her eyes slowly opening. She thought about everything that had happened, that was a lot of information, she hoped she would be able to learn all of it. She wanted to go back and talk to her father some more so she closed her eyes once more waiting for sleep to come, but after about 10 minutes of trying it still wouldn't come. She opened her eyes and looked at the clock it was 10, breakfast was already over. She blinked her eyes a few times, and got out of bed slowly.  She made her way over to the bathroom and took a long shower, if there was one thing she liked with her new appearance it was that she didn't have to do anything with her hair, it dried just fine by its self. At around 11 she emerged from her room and went down the stairs, Draco was sitting in a chair by the fireplace reading what looked like the newspaper. Draco looked over at her with one eye, and watched her walk over towards the portrait hole.

"Where are you going? Breakfast is already over. Dumbledore wanted me to wake you up. But I told him that women were very scary in the morning especially if you wake them up. My mother looked like she was going to kill me one time when I woke her up before 10, so sorry you missed breakfast, but I was pretty sure you'd rather sleep than eat."

 She laughed, "Well, that was very smart of you, and you were very right so good job, and I'm going to the Kitchens" she replied back. His eyebrows rose.

"You know where the kitchen is?"

"There are advantages of having Fred and George around" she let out a small laugh.

"Can you show me where they are?" she looked like she was in deep thought, he was hoping she would show him, it would be a nice thing to know. After a moment of thought she spoke up.

"Well it's kind of a Gryffindor secret, I'm sure you understand. But I'll bring you something back." Draco was a little disappointed by that but he wasn't expecting her to take him along anyway. They weren't necessarily friends, just acquaintances.

Hermione walked down to the kitchens and was greeted by Dobby. She remembered her new appearance and told him who she was and he seemed to brighten up a lot after that. He gave her plenty of food; she sat and ate for awhile making small talk with the house elves. Some of the house elves still avoided her, because of the previous years. But most were interested to know why she looked different, once she was full and out of words she bid them all goodbye and left remembering to take with her some food for Draco. On her way back to the common room she bumped into Dumbledore.

"Ah, Hermione I was just coming to look for you."

"Oh well here I am, what would you like professor?"

"Well actually, I just wanted to tell you that you're free to go to the burrow and visit for awhile I don't want you going there too much, but you can go for today. Your fireplace in the common room is connected to the floo network." Hermione looked up at Dumbledore and beamed, he was so thoughtful, and… psychic she thought, she had wanted to go see Harry and Ron today.

"Thank you very much Professor, I'll be sure to be back before dinner. Goodbye" She walked back up to the common room, excited that she could go visit Harry and Ron. When she walked in Draco was still sitting in the same spot looking absorbed in the paper. She threw the apple that she brought back for him at his head catching his attention.

"Ow" he turned around and looked at her. "Thanks, but did you have to throw it?"

"No" she walked over to him, and handed him the chocolate cupcake "is that more to your liking?" His eyes widened. He looked like a little kid on Christmas morning with the cupcake.

"Yes, very much to my liking" she chuckled at him. If only Harry and Ron knew, this side of Draco. With that thought she walked over to the fireplace and grabbed a handful of Floo powder.

"I'm going to the Weasley's I'll be back" he sneered at hearing their name, but she was gone before he had a chance to throw out an insult. Well he thought she found something to do, Think Draco what can I do? He thought for a little bit, and with a sudden jump up like he had just discovered the answer to a very important a question. He said in a demanding voice.

"Accio Broom" the broom came flying down the stairs to him, and he went outside to the quidditch pitch to fly around.

Meanwhile Hermione stumbled out of the fireplace at the burrow.

"Hello?" she yelled. Ginny came running down the stairs.

"Hermione! We thought you disappeared off the face of the earth. Where in the world have you been?"

"It's good to see you too!" she laughed "let's get Harry and Ron and I'll explain. So Ginny started talking excitedly about other things grateful to have a girl her age around the house while they looked for Harry and Ron. When they finally found them, they came bounding towards Hermione knocking her over with their monster hugs.

"mmf" she mumbled "I love you guys too, now can you get off of me?" the boys rolled off of her and Ginny joined them on the ground.

"Well what did Dumbledore have to say?" Harry asked.

"Ya, what happened?" Ron looked even more curious than Harry. So Hermione started her story leaving out the parts about being a spy, she was on strict orders to keep that secret from everybody. They listened intently, and bombed her with questions afterwards. She spent the rest of the day with them laughing and talking, and before she knew it, it was time to head back to Hogwarts, she said her goodbyes and promised to write them, even though they would see eachother in a few weeks when school started again.

When she got back to Hogwarts she headed straight towards the GreatHall for some dinner. When she arrived she noticed that Draco was nowhere to be seen. She wasn't the only one to notice either because Dumbledore asked her if she would be so kind to go and tell him that it was time for dinner. So Hermione went off in search of Draco, she searched everywhere and she couldn't find him, so finally after circling the school a few times, she walked outside. She saw a figure on a broom flying above her, that must be him she thought.

"Draco" she was yelling at the top of her lungs for him, and he finally swooped down behind her.

"What do you want?" he sounded very angry. Hermione took a step back.

"Dumbledore wanted me to tell you that dinner is ready" he looked down at his watch.

"Hmm, guess I lost track of time." His voice sounded much lighter now.

"So now I know never to disturb you again if you're flying, just like you're never to disturb me when I'm sleeping." He smirked

"I guess you could say that, but thanx, I was getting a little hungry" they both slowly started walking back towards the school.

"Sure, but I'm never doing that again that was a little scary." Draco snorted.

"How was the burrow?" She thought that was a very odd question coming from his mouth.

"It was fun, Fred and George almost blew up the house testing a new product." She could tell that talking about this was making him uncomfortable. "But we don't have to talk about this" He let out a breath.

"I don't know what you see in them."

"well I don't know what you see in Crabbe and Goyle." His lips twitched like he was about to smile but it turned into a smirk instead.

"Well they are pretty amusing; ya know watching them fight over the last piece of cake." He snickered. "Besides at least they are faithful to me, I wouldn't have forgiven Ron if he cheated on me." Her eyes widened and she looked at him mortified.

"You know about that?"

"Gossip spreads fast, why did you forgive him?"

"I don't know, I really needed a friend after my parents died and they were there, so maybe I was just vulnerable, but I'm happy anyway, and I've gotten over it."

"Hmm, well I guess they're really lucky then."

"I guess they are"

That was their last conversation for about a week; they talked to each other when necessary, but otherwise tried to avoid each other. The trust exercises they did in training were becoming easier and easier as their trust was building. But the weirdness of this all was settling in and both felt too awkward talking to their once enemy. But the boredom was getting to them, and they both knew it would be a lot easier to overcome if they just talked to the other. But both of them were too stubborn. Until one day both of them were sitting in their common room reading. When Draco involuntarily spoke.

"I'm booored!" he said in an unusually whiny voice. Hermione laughed at him.

"Me too, I mean what is there to do around here? You can only read so much, and I've already read about ¾ of the books in the library"

"Ugh, I know, and I think my eyes are going to pop out of my head If I read anymore." Somehow this conversation lead them into an hour talk about the different books that they had read. But this too died leaving them with silence once again, both denying that they had just spoken to the other about books and other things. Both of them tried reading once more, but neither of them succeeded, too many thoughts were bouncing around in their heads. Hermione let out a loud sigh. Draco all of a sudden remembered that Professor Snape told him he could go to Hogsmeade.

"Hermione" she looked up at him "We could go to Hogsmeade, professor snape said it was okay" her eyes brightened up and a smile broke out on her face.

"Really?"

"Yep"

"Then what are we waiting for?" she jumped up dropping her book on the couch. Draco found all of this quite amusing; she gets excited very easily he thought. So a little while later, when they were both ready they walked to Hogsmeade. The silence between them was so thick that you could put a knife through it. But neither noticed, they were too busy thinking. This still seemed so fake to both of them. Here they were walking with each other. It was quite a picture. Neither wanted to admit but they were both finding that they enjoyed each others company. But they could never voice that, because there were too many rules, too many walls holding them apart. It was forbidden. Both were so confused, and afraid of what they were feeling.

Hermione was the first to break the silence when they reached Hogsmeade.

"Where do you want to go first?"

"Well, I suppose we should get our school supplies then we could go other places."

"Okay that sounds good." Draco was happy that he could be seen walking through Hogsmeade with a beautiful girl even if it was Hermione, but no one else knew that.  When they were in the bookstore, they caught site of Seamus and Dean. Hermione quickly grabbed Draco's arm and pulled him behind a shelf of books crouching down.

"What are you doing?"

"Hiding, shhh, we can't let them see us together." He looked at her and realized she must have forgotten about her looks.

"Umm, I doubt they know who you are, remember you look different now."

"Oh, right! Sorry it's hard to remember."

"It's okay" he looked down and her hand was still clamped around his arm, she looked down too and took it off blushing. They came back out from behind the bookshelf, and continued to shop. When they were all done with their school supplies, he dragged her over to the   quidditch supplies store. In there Hermione noticed two slytherin 6th year boys. She remembered her appearance this time and didn't grab Draco to hide, Instead she grabbed a book and pretended to be very interested in it as they walked over. Draco watched her burn a hole into the page, and smirked.

"Hey Andrew, Hey Joel"

"Hey" they both said

"Who's that beauty" Joel said pointing at Hermione. Draco pulled Hermione over next to him. He could see a blush rising to her face.

"This is umm… Mya" he said. She forced a smile

"Hello" She picked up her book again and started staring at the pages again occasionally turning the page. She could hear bits of their conversation. Draco was very good at lying, especially when it came to her. When they finally left she was very glad.

"Finally, Geez. Are you their god or something?" he puffed out his chest and a smug grin appeared on his face.

"Ya, something like that."  She hit his chest.

"My gosh, Draco. Aren't you a little arrogant." They walked over to the three broomsticks and drank some butterbeer first before heading home so they would be in time for dinner. When they got back inside Hogwarts Hermione burst out in a fit of laughter and started rolling around on the floor. Draco almost started laughing just watching her.

"what's so funny?"

"Us" she managed to get out in between laughs "Who would ever have imagined that you and me Gryffindor queen and slytherin king would ever have gone to Hogsmeade together without throwing one insult." She paused to laugh some more. "I guess you could say that we were kind of forced together but still." She started pinching herself, and at this point Draco couldn't hold back and he started laughing and rolling around on the floor too.

"Are you sure this isn't a dream" she asked.

"I don't know" He continued laughing. This was the first time she had seen Draco Smile or Laugh. He started pinching himself too. To any spectator it would seem that they had too many butterbeers and maybe they did, but it sure was an amusing sight. The heads of the school rolling around on the floor laughing and pinching themselves. Well Dumbledore chose that moment to walk by, and was very taken aback by the sight. He chuckled and cleared his throat.

"Dinner is ready if you two are hungry" and with that he walked away, leaving the two very confused teenagers. The thought circling through both of their heads; oh my god, I just spent the day with her/him, and I liked it. What is happening?
