A/N: I don't know if anybody has realized, but the author dirtypink and I
are in a competition against each other. In real life the two authors that
make up dirtypink are my best friends and we decided that we wanted to try
our hand at writing a story. The bet is who will be able to get the most
reviews. And I would like to say how much you completely surprised me by
all the reviews. And I would also like to say that when I'm talking about
my ego I'm really talking about the bet.
In know from those of you who email me that you really hate my cliffs, but to bad for you, I'm having fun making you suffer. The only way that there'll not be a chapter each day is because either my bucket of bolts (computer) is broken or I'm having a hard time uploading.
Please R/R my ego needs it, hehehehe.

---- Sirius Black could not believe his ears, how the hell did Albus know about his son?
Dumbledore who had seen the bewildered look on the young professor's face answered, "I've known since the first time I met him. He's not all that he seems, is he? And I must congratulate his mother on an amazing eye colour change charm, very impressive."
"Why do you want to talk to him, does he have something to do with Hermione's attack?" Sirius asked furiously.
"No Sirius that's not why I want to talk to him, Poppy said she saw him in the hospital. I'm a tad curious; she seems to be convinced that there is some other emotion then hate in him. Also Hermione told me about her attack, she's positive there were to attackers."
"TWO! She had to face TWO attackers. Dear lord, who the hell could have wanted to do this to her."
"I had a hard time dealing with that information as well. But that does not matter. Hermione will be going back to classes Monday, so that gives her this weekend to get caught up with her school work."
"Do you think she should go back so soon?"
"No, but I do agree with her, she needs to move on. Tomorrow morning I will announce to the school that she's awake and will be joining us for dinner. I'm worried that she'll bury herself under a mountain of books to distract her from dwelling on what happened."
"Then I'll talk to Harry about keeping her busy, it's a least something."
"Sirius, something is always better then nothing," Dumbledore said wisely.
"I do have a request though; will you let me win Draco's friendship before you talk to him?"
"Absolutely, I wish you the best of luck, you'll need it." ---- Hermione had been out of the hospital for the last three weeks.
Catching up on her school work had been easy; she had done a bit of reading ahead during the summer.
When Dumbledore had told her that he had arranged it that she could go back to classes she had been happy that she had something to focus on instead of the Hands.
The first few days had been awkward, but with the help of Harry and Ginny it had finally blown over.
People still looked at her with pitying eyes, but at least they had not asked her to tell them what happened.
She still hadn't told Harry!
The teachers had been extra nice to her, especially Sirius and McGonagall. The only teacher that was still a jerk was Professor Snape. And Hermione respected that he didn't take it easier on her, she needed a challenge.
Hermione had two problems.
One was sitting in the Great Hall, she always felt eyes on her and if she tried to look up quickly, they'd be gone. She knew her rapists are out there, and it frightened her not knowing who they are.
The second thing that bothered her was being alone, even when she studied she felt alone and isolated. So she had taken up doing study groups with Harry and Ginny. It was just before she fell asleep that she remembered the Hands.
She had left the great hall over ten minutes ago, making her way to her room she decided that a nice long bath was the perfect thing to take away her stress.
The bathroom wasn't as big as the prefects but it was still very comfortable.
After running very hot water for her bath, she undressed and was about to step in the pool like tub, when the door burst to reveal a very angry Draco Malfoy.
'Great' she thought to herself "I forgot to look the door!' ----
A/N: I would like to acknowledge one of my friends who is the one who actually does the uploading for me. I don't have internet at home, so I made a deal with her. She puts my chapters on the net and I mention her in my author's notes. There Happy?
Remember Help my ego!!!
I won't have the next chapter on till Monday.
