Chapter 1: The trip to Hogwarts once more

Hermione walked to King's Cross station with a bag in one hand that had a wand on it and said The Mole, Hogwarts, Hermione Granger. She was given this bag and 2 letters, which she now held in her hand, a week ago. Hermione reread the letter once more.

Dear Ms. Hermione Granger,

Hello! This is your old headmaster, Albus Dumbledore. I am pleased to contact you after so many months I haven't seen you! I am also pleased to give you a good reason to come back to Hogwarts. No, I am not offering you a job in Hogwarts, though it would be nice to have an intellegent witch like you back in the school. I know you are Mistress of Magic and I hope you know that I am very proud that you have been chosen for a job that is perfect for you.

Now, this letter is to inform you that there I have chosen you to be in a game called The Mole. I know that since you are muggle born, you know about this show on TV. I will be gathering a few of your old classmates to join us in this show. Now, I know that since you are Mistress of Magic, you might not have time to play a game. I do understand if you decline. But before you mail in your answer, please consider this. I know that you haven't seen your friends Harry and Ron in a long time, 6 months and 3 days to be exact, since Harry is an auror and Ron is playing quiddich. Harry and Ron are also taking time off their jobs to join in on this game. As is Ron's younger sister, Ginny, also another one of your old friends.

I do hope you join in, I do miss my brightest student, as does your old Transfiguration teacher, Professor McGonagall. If you decide that you would like to, please mail in your answer by the end of this month of July. Thank you very much!

-Albus Dumbledore

Hermione had owled in that yes, she would participate in the show. She was excited to see Harry, Ron and Ginny once more. She hadn't seen them since last Christmas, and she only stayed with them for 3 days. Sure, she heard about them once in a while, but it wasn't the same thing as hanging out with them. She reread the letter she had recieved after she had owled that she would go.

Dear Ms. Hermione Granger,

I am pleased to know that you have decided to join in. Enclosed in the letter will be a ticket to the train to Hogwarts. I am sure you know where to go, platform 9 3/4. Use this bag for all of your belongings for the two weeks you will be in the show. I hope you know your stratagy for winning and I look forward to seeing you once again in a week! Good day!

-Minerva McGonagall

The letter also said if she would or wouldn't be the mole (a/n which i will not revel due to keep you all in question). Hermione ran through the barriers to get into platform 9 3/4 unnoticed by any muggles. She then saw the familiar Hogwarts Express. 'Oh how I've missed this train.' Hermione thought to herself. Then she was quickly ushered to her own compartment on the train by 3 house elves, one in which took her bag. "Wait! But... I wanna see Harry and Ron!" Hermione said.

"Freddy is so very sorry m'am, but miss told him to take all contestants to their compartments." Freddy the house elf said as he lead her inside a door that said Hermione Granger.

"Thank you very much Freddy." Hermione said as Freddy bowed and went out the door. Hermione tried to get out of the room to see her old friends, but unfortanally, it was locked. "Damn!" She looked around her compartment, it was roomy enough. It had a couch and a shelf full of books. There was also a laptop that had the wizarding world's logo of The Mole, which was a Wand shooting out green stars that were shaped like question marks. Hermione went over to the shelf and took out a book titled, Hogwarts a History 2.

About an hour after the train started on its way to Hogwarts, a familiar face entered the room.

"Hello Ms. Granger." the voice drawled. Hermione looked up from the second book she was reading and smiled. She got up and gave her old Professor a hug.

"Hello Professor! I've missed you so much!" Hermione said. The professor akwardly hugged his old student and smiled. Though these two used to hate each other, they had worked together for a few months to make a potion that would kill off Voldemort, and they had formed something that was somewhat like a brother, sister relationship.

"Hermione! I've told you so many times, I would of thought that it had gone through your big head, don't call me professor! Call me Severus!" he laughed. Hermione laughed too.

"Now you must know why I am here." he said. Hermione shook her head no. They both sat on the couch.

"Ok, I am here to explain the rules of the mole. I'm sure that you already know the object of the game since you are a muggle born. Please note this, once you get eliminated, you will still be in the game, but you are not able to win the prize. Once we arrive at Hogwarts, you will be shown to the Gryffindor common room with the other participants. They will give you a briefing and you will also be able to note who would be playing. Any questions?" he asked.

"Yah, will I be able to see Harry and Ron soon?" Hermione asked.

"I'm sorry, but no. None of the contestants are allowed to see each other before the briefing." he said.

"Ok, what is the computer for?" she asked.

"That would be used for the quiz and also if you have any work you have to catch up with. You can go on the muggle internet also." he answered.

"Ok, one last question. Do I have time to catch up on what my old friend Severus has been up to for the past 2 years?" she asked with a smile. Snape smiled and they immediutly begin to talk and catch up with each other.

An hour before the train arrived at Hogwarts, Snape said good bye and told her to get ready for arriving.

Once they arrived, Hermione was wisked away on a carridge. Then she was brought by Freddy the house elf to the portrait of the fat lady. "Password?" she asked.

"Umm.. uh.." Hermione didn't know the password.

"Hogwarts Mole." Freddy said as they both entered the familiar Gryffindor common room.

Hermione saw that she wasn't the last one to arrive. "Hello Hermione."

Hermione turned around and saw....
