Chapter 4: Opening Night
It was Harry Potter. Everything about him was different. His hair shades lighter because of too much sun. But. . .he didn't have everything Draco had. . .
*Crap.* 'Why am I thinking about that bozo?' Hermione chided herself. 'He doesn't even measure up to Harry. Harry is so much better. . .'
*No he isn't. They're about the same.* Another voice said in her head. *You like both of them*
"No I don't." Hermione said aloud making Harry look at her weirdly.
"Hey Monie. Howz it been. . .no hug this time?" Harry said with a fake pout.
"Oh! S-sorry Harry. I was just thinking." She squeaked trying to find her voice. "Harry, come here. . ." Hermione said to Harry with outstretch arms.
"You look beautiful Monie. What took you so long to get here?" Harry whispered into her ear as he moved his hands down her back to her waist.
"I-I. . .Am I late?!" Hermione said a little too loudly.
Harry looked down into her eyes and smiled. "No you aren't, but Ginny got here way before you did. She kept on asking everybody if you had arrived yet."
"Oh." Was all Hermione could say.
"Yes oh. She also kept on saying, 'Mama, that Mama I really think she was strange. I won't be surprised if she was evil. . .You know what she was talking about?"
Hermione laughed. "Yeah. . .Mama is strange. . .Ginny!" Hermione yelled.
"Hermione? Oh my gosh! I've been looking all over for you. Why didn't you come out that door faster?"
"What do you mean I should have 'come out that door faster?' I did. . .you walked out a few seconds earlier and Mama told me some stuff and then pushed me out the door and I ended up here. . ."
"What are you talking about? I stood outside Midnight Rose for an hour while YOU talked to that 'Mama' lady."
"Wo, wo, wo. . .back up, you stood outside Midnight Rose for. . .an HOUR?!"
"Yeah that's right and Harry you can let go of Hermione, I think you've hugged her long enough."
"Uh sorry. I was just too interested in your stories that I forgot to let go." Harry said with a blush.
"Yeah right. I believe that one." She said sarcastically. "Hermione are you ready for your speech tonight?" Ginny asked.
"I guess. You mean you waited for me outside Midnight Rose for, for an hour?" Hermione said still confused on what had just happened.
"Yes, I did." Ginny retorted in a know it all voice.
"I'm losing it, I'm really losing it." Hermione complained.
She started to walk away when she ran into Fred and George.
"Ah yes, dear brother, it seems as if we ran into a princess." Fred said in a cocky voice to George.
"Do we know you lady?" George replied bowing to Hermione. "I don't think we've met."
"Cut it out you guys. . ." Hermione smiled and gave them both a hug and a kiss on the cheek.
"No really we don't know you. . ." George faltered. "Her-Her-Hermione?"
"FINALLY! I thought you guys lost your marbles totally." She laughed. "So, howz business? I heard your joke shop is a huge hit."
"And it's going to stay a hit." Fred said a-matter-o-factory.
"I'm sure it will." Giggled Hermione.
"Yes it is." George finished. "Yes it is. . ."
"So, we're honoring you tonight? I think it's just splendid that you found 'all' those artifacts. Hey, what's that you're wearing it's wonderful." Fred complimented.
"Quite so, quite so. . .hey, did you know ferret boy married Pansy?" George whispered. "And they're going to be here. . .tonight!"
"Yeah, I found out his afternoon. . ."Hermione stopped to think about it. "When did they get married?"
"Seven months ago." Draco voice said behind her. "I'm surprised you didn't know that Granger. It was. . .in the Daily Prophet. I thought you knew everything."
"I don't read the Daily Prophet anymore. And I don't know EVERYTHING." Hermione said without turning to look at him. "Well, Fred. . .George, I must go and find Ron. . .you happen to know where he is?"
"Food bar." Fred smiled.
"As always." George said with a wink.
Fred waved. "See you around. . ."
". . .Princess." George laughed.
Hermione started to walk towards the food bar. She didn't care that Draco Malfoy 'was' following her. It didn't matter to her. She stopped when he put his hand on the small of her back. That just did it for her.
"What the. . . confound it Malfoy, what the heck are you doing?" Hermione said as she turned around. "Who do you think you are?!"
"Still fuming from the 7th year at Hogwarts aren't you?" Draco said smoothly. "You still trying to figure out what happen. . .I am too. Everybody is. Right now, you know the most. . .on what really happened."
"Well you're asking the wrong person ferret boy. . .weren't you the one to cause all the madness?" Hermione spat back.
"No I wasn't. Though, I wish I had and what is this idea that you aren't a mudblood anymore. . .or were you just saying that crap back at the bar so you could get off the hook for being one?"
"I didn't say it so I could get off the 'hook.' I said it because it's true. . .and it plays a part in what happened in our 7th year."
"Really and what 'part' does it play? Pray tell." Draco said. He smiled and grabbed two drinks from a waiter who walked by. He looked at Hermione and gave one to her.
Hermione angrily said. "Why so nice all of a sudden? What if I told you I don't know what happened? What would you do?"
"You mean you don't know?"
"No, I don't know and why in the world would I tell you in the first place? I would tell my best friends first. . .they even don't know. Actually, I somewhat know what happened. I know that the whole fucking school practically went against me. . .I really don't know why. Good day ferret boy, I must go talk to Ron. By the way. . .I've found my voice in the world. You can't bother me anymore." She huffed.
Hermione walked over to Ron and tapped him on the shoulder. He whipped around to face her and gasped.
"Ron, Ron, you look as if you've seen a ghost!" Hermione frantically said. She waved her hand in front of his face. Ron snapped out of it fast enough to smile at her.
"W-w-wow! Her-Hermione. You look great." He told her. "For a second there, I thought I died and had gone to heaven."
Hermione chuckled and gave him a hug.
"Ginny was looking for you, did you find her?" Ron asked.
"Yeah I did. . .I left her with Harry. Do you know what time it is?"
"Almost midnight. Don't you give your speech at midnight?" He said taking a bite of his bread roll he was holding.
"Yeah. Do you know where I'm to go to give my speech?"
Somebody tapped Hermione on the shoulder and she turned. She was standing in front of a well dressed house elf.
"Marm? Are you Miss Granger?" The elf said with respect. Hermione nodded.
"Miss Granger, please allow me to escort you to the stage where the floating podium is. Everybody is dieing to hear what you have to say about those artifacts you found in dem Smoky Mountains. Follow me Marm." He bowed and started to lead her past a maze of people. When she passed some of them they nodded their acknowledgement, others smiled and waved. She followed him into a hallway and past massive window that had to be three stories high. Hermione looked outside one of the windows and saw the full moon shining in a starless sky. She shivered when shadows flickered playfully on the walls. Suddenly a strange feeling inside her body made everything slow down. Her body didn't seem to process everything that was happening fast enough. She felt. . .weak and. . .tired.
The elf stopped his slow walk in front of a door. He turned to Hermione who was having trouble seeing straight. Everything seemed fuzzy.
"Miss Granger? To get to the stage just walk through these doors. Good luck Marm. . ." His voice faltered and his eyes bulged. "M-Marm? May I see your necklace? I've never seen anything like it. . .its glowing violet, too. Wow Miss, it's wonderfully made."
Hermione bent down, undid here necklace and let him hold it. He seemed highly fascinated by it. It put him in some kind of trance.
'Wonder what's wrong with him. It's just a necklace.' She thought.
The house elf looked at it one more time and gave it back to Hermione. "Wow. Wonderfully crafted. It's a master piece!"
She fastened it back onto her neck and felt a wave of nausea in her stomach. Hermione nodded to the elf that bowed and opened the door for her.
She was brightly greeted by millions of bright light. . .

"Ladies and Gentlemen may I please introduce Hermione Granger. . .We would like to recognize her for her excellent findings in the Great Smoky Mountains. She has found many magical artifacts which she has donated to the Ministry of Magic. These items are proudly being displayed after the ceremony and all this week for the public view. After a week of viewing, we will then research, er. . . well, what I mean is find their background and what part they played from our past. Please give a warm welcome for Hermione Granger. . ." A man said into a speaker. The crowd politely clapped. Hermione stood next to him silently trying not to throw up. The man stepped away from the speaker and held out his hand for her so Hermione could step onto the floating podium.
"Well, I would like to say I'm glad that everybody could make it out here tonight. . .to hear me ramble on and look at the artifacts that I found. . ." Hermione paused, an awful feeling in her body. Her head throbbing from a headache. She continued. ". . .I found in the Great Smoky Mountains. Now. . .you must b-be wondering. . .how in the world I thought to even l-look in those mountains. . ." Hermione closed her eyes because they felt like they were burning. She opened them and forced herself to smile.
"Sorry everybody. . .I-I-I'm having a hard time. . .I-I just don't f-feel t-t-to well. . ." Hermione managed. "Everything s-s-seems very s-slow and distant." She coughed and tried to breath, but hardly any air went into her lungs. Hermione smiled one more time and looked out into the worried crowd of people; most of them she knew. . .
The clock struck midnight and made everybody jump. Hermione paled and fell to the ground with a crash. Falling off a floating podium made it even worse for her. Someone screamed and everything went black for Hermione. Her necklace twinkling dark violet. . .

The end.
I'm joking! I'm joking! Keep reading. I'm not done with the chapter.
^~*$*~^
Everybody stood there, shocked, looking at the body of Hermione Granger.
"Somebody do something!!!" Someone shouted in the back of the meeting hall. Another yelled but was cut off. "CALL for help. . ."
Thunder boomed, lightning flashed. . .and all the lights went out. . .which never ever happened before in the meeting hall.
*Everything went black. . .as if nothing existed right then and there. . .like the present wasn't real, but "A" future. . .that hadn't happened yet. . .the past "WAS" the present. . .and the past well. . .it was ancient.
