Hermione entered her father's private room and waited. She could hear him in his private potions labs. He walked out carrying a huge book, which he was reading and he looked up and saw her there. He jumped when he first saw her because he wasn't expecting anyone and dropped the book right on his foot.
"Ahh…bloody fuck." He cured picking up the book and rubbing his foot.
"Wow, I don't believe little old me scaring the big bad potion professor," Hermione smiled and giggled. Snape gave her a dark stare and she gave him one back. This lasted for about five minutes and he broke away the gaze.
"You are worst then your mother and I combined," He said sitting down next to her on the brown leather sofa.
"Tell me about her," Hermione whispered. Snape nodded and began his story.
"It was my second year at Hogwarts and I was sitting in the Great Hall waiting for the sorting to be over. Then a name was called "Irisa Penrethen". I looked up at the sound of the name Penrethen. You see the Penrethens are the oldest possible wizarding family the very first magical person came from that line Gwendolyn Penrethen. She was the first magical person ever and she created with her power the island of healing, hope, love, and dreams, Avalon. All the Penrethens after her were called the Children of Avalon. More magical people started popping up after her and she untied her family with the Zivon family. Now all of the Penrethens have been born on the island of Avalon, including you my dear. Because of that you are very different more different then the Penrethens who came before you. You are the last of their line. Well anyway back to the story. I watched Irisa walk up to get sorted and everyone was whispering knowing about the Penrethen family. She sat on the stool and looked around the hall until she came to me. Our eyes locked and I knew I was in love. She just smiled at me and was sorted into Ravenclaw. We would meet each other in secret every night after that one. We were the best of friends. But within a few years we were in love. Then my 7th year came and Lucius wanted me to join the Death Eaters. I went straight to Dumbledore and he didn't know what to do. So to protect you mother I told him I would join and I would be a spy for the side of good. He wouldn't let me at first but I would let up. So two years had passed and your mother and I were married in secret of course. Plus she was pregnant with you. I was so happy. But as Halloween came closer your mother left for Avalon. Soon I joined her and you were born, it was funny in a way. We knew you were a witch; you came out your skin glowing in a soft white light. But you a witch were born on Halloween. The people that were there, the caretakers of Avalon helped you mother perform the rite that would make you a part of Avalon forever. I wasn't permitted to see nor was your mother aloud to talk about it. You two were now the last daughters of Avalon. We were scared about the dark lord finding out about all this but we were happy. Happy with our daughter, Hermione Aretha Penrethen. We never knew one year later a boy, born three months earlier, would destroy Voldemort.
You mother didn't want you to became the soul queen, is the best word for it, of Avalon. She wanted you to have a normal life. So she did a dark spell to make Avalon disappear forever. But since her held blackness, the dark spell, it backfired and killed her. She wanted you to have a normal life Hermione. I couldn't take you my dear one; the Death Eaters were still doing stuff. So I gave you to the Grangers. We met them when we were living in the muggle world for 4 months. I told them everything and they took you. I came to see you a lot when you were very small. But I had to stop since I didn't want you to remember me. I am so sorry. I was going to tell you after you left Hogwarts and the dark lord was gone forever. But then you became friends with Harry Potter and were always in danger. I know that you brewed the Polyjuice Potion in your second year. I was made at you for stealing from me, then I really what you did. It takes wizards and witches years to master that potion and you made it perfectly your first try. I was amazed and very proud. I followed you a lot that is how I know about it. Well that's the end of it?"
"So who am I?" Hermione asked. She was lying against him after he finished his story.
"After your mothers death your were and are Lady Penrethen, daughter of Avalon." Serveus sighed, "Enough with all of these sad memories, let's go find Draco and go and get the things you two will need for school."
"Can I tell Draco everything?" Hermione ask as they got up and left the dungeons.
"Yes my dear you can." He said. Hermione decided she would wait until tonight to tell him. Hermione realized that school would start in less the 2 days.
