Chapter 3
Secrets Reviled
The next day I woke up and looked around my dormitory. All the other girls were gone including Hermione. The bandana that I had rapped around my head, to hide my ears was loose.
I got up and put on my dress robes with a wide witch hat. As I went down to the Great Hall I looked for Hermione, she was no where in sight.
"Oh well I guess I'll get back on the job." I thought to myself.
I sat down next to Ron and Harry. "Do you guys know where Hermione is?" I asked.
"I think she ate breakfast early, then headed for the library." Harry said.
"What?!" I said, half delighted half worried. I grabbed an apple and ran towards the library.
I walked down the rows of books until I found the 'E' section. There I found Hermione reading book after book on elves. Not house elves mind you, true elves. She was reading a book called 'Elves: Powerful People'.
I didn't even have to read her mind to know that she was reading a section about the magic we possessed.
Hermione looked up and saw me. "What are you doing here?" she asked.
"Um...I wanted to...er... research house elves with you." I replied.
"Oh, ok" she said unsure of what to do.
"Why are you researching elves? And tell me truthfully"
"I...well...I...." She was stalling, but I wanted her to say it not me.
"To put it plainly....um..."
"Spit it out already!"
"ALL RIGHT ALREADY! Are you an ELF?!" She said it, but I couldn't believe she actually would.
Now it was my turn to stutter, "Um...er..." This wasn't coming out the way I had planned. "Well...ya." I finally said.
"I knew it!" Hermione gloated.
"Ya well keep it down, your not supposed to know."
"Can you really do all those things the book says?"
"Be quiet!" I whispered, "We'll talk about it in our dorm."
We walked out of the library. Hermione didn't even pick up the books that she had left on the floor, which earned us a glare by the librarian as we walked out the door.
When we got to the girls dormitories I shut the door. Luckily nobody was in there at the time.
"So?" Hermione said, anxiously.
"Well first of all you can't tell anyone." I said.
"What about Harry and Ron?"
"Definitely not, especially Harry"
"Why not?"
"Well you plainly can't tell him because that would ruin the whole point of me being here."
"What is the point of you being here?"
"You would laugh if I told you."
"Try me."
"Dumbledore hired me to protect Harry."
"What?!" Hermione said, "Since when dose Harry need protecting? And 2: Dumbledore doesn't hire people to take care of other students."
"Well he did hire me and Harry dose need protecting, he can't handle him on his own."
"Who can't he handle?"
"Voldemort" I said, "That's who."
