please R&R...

"Hermione? Baby, please wake up. C'mon honey, open your eyes."

Hermione tried to move but found it was too painful. She tried to open

her eyes but found that hard to do to. She was trapped in her mind, and

her body lay lifeless. She wanted to speak, but it seemed impossible. It all

seemed impossible. Hermione strained to open her eyes, but managed to

squint. "Mum?"

"Oh God! Your okay, Oh my God, honey. Im so sorry!" Her mother rushed over

and grabbed her hand, which seemed numb to Hermione.

Hermione was glad to see her mother but she couldn't handle it. She

closed her eyes in an attempt to think. Her mind was boggled with thought.

She relied on her sense of hearing. She heard people talking, and small

beeping noises. Then she heard someone crying. Hermione's mind raced, and

with all her strength, she pushed herself up. "Don't come near me!" she

shouted in a voice that she was sure was not her own. This voice was shaky,

tired and sad-the opposite of what Hermione normally was. She dat up in her

cot for awhile and looked around. She was in the hospital. Doctors rushed

from place to place, and cots with others on them were wheeled in. People

stared at her.

"Hermione-it's..it's okay" Her mother's voice was shaky to.

Hermione saw people staring at her sadly. A whole family was surrounding

a cot nearby, and a little girl was crying. Hermione was relieved.

"Where's dad?" Hermione asked

"His business trip was extended" Hermione's mother said.

"She will get me-she won't leave-" Hermione started to panic, and many

people looked over, looking sorry for her.

"Hermione...calm down" Her mother grabbed her hand.

Hermione fell back down and stared at the wall.

"But she will kill me-mum" Hermione started to breath heavily.

"No-she won't" Her mother said seriously. "Now stop"

Hermione closed her eyes.

"What day is it?"

"You are going back to Hogwarts in six days" her mother said.

"What happened?"

"I came home to find you laying on the floor- you had a concussion."

"What?" Hermione whispered. "I was stabbed-I was lying on the floor,

bleeding."

Hermione's mother said no more, and pulled a blanket over her daughter.

The doctor came. He was tall, old, and his white hair stuck out in tufts on top

off his head.

"Now, Hermione.." He said in a raspy voice. "Your as good as new"

Hermione nodded.

"But.." he continued. "You have some strange marks on your stomach"

The doctor gestured for Hermione to lift her shirt a little.

Hermione did as asked, and was shocked to see the marks on her stomach.

They were long, claw-like marks that made her skin red, and puffy.

The feeling came over Hermione, and she leaned to the garbage can, and

threw up.

"Yes, yes. Well, all should be well soon. You can leave today if you like"

The doctor picked up his clipboard. "Good luck feeling better"

"Thank you, Dr. Hiebis" Hermione's mother said as he left.

"I don't want to go home" Hermione whispered.

"She is waiting for me"
