Truth Hurts (Literally)
Hermione woke to find herself in the room below Harris' office. She looked around and noticed that he was asleep, if she just snuck out now she wouldn't wake him. She was wrong.
"Where you goin?" he enquired,
"Um breakfast, I'm pretty hungry"
"I'll say" he said as he stretched. "So any idea about what is getting students?"
"Um no, I've gotta go" she pulled on her clothes and hurried up the stairs.
She couldn't think straight, what had she done the night before? She had slept with her teacher! Well he was more than that, what was she going to say? She decided to keep it a secret and just try and forget about it.
Hermione sat herself between Ron and Ginny, she sensed she looked a mess and tried to strighten herself up.
"Hermione, what were you up to last night?" Ginny asked
"Nothing! She jumped, "how did you know I wasn't there last night?"
"Lavender was talking about how you reacted to her owl being killed and that she hadn't seen you since."
"Oh, well I was in the hospital wing"
"For a little scratch?"
"What's with the third degree?" she snapped slamming down a spoonful of porridge, "I didn't sleep in the dorm and I went to the Hospital Wing!" she picked up her cloak and ran out, she ran into Harris who asked her what was wrong, she just burst into tears and left for the common room.
She past a group of Slytherins who muttered, "crazy" under their breath as she streaked past.
She sat down and tried to clear her head of her worries with her book and kept looking at the portrait hole, thinking that Ron, Harry or Ginny would burst in and demand to know what's going on.
Hermione had decided that because of what happened after breakfast she had to tell them, she knew that they wouldn't believe her so she had a little plan.
"Hermione!" Harry burst through the door, "What was breakfast all about?" he sat down beside her "Ginny got really upset she thinks you don't like her anymore!"
"I'm sorry Harry, it's just, I had a pretty bad couple of days and I need to tell you all something," she started to tell him about them all going to the forbidden forest that night so she could try and find what was causing all the trouble. He agreed after thinking it over for a while, and he said he'd tell the others. It strictly had to Be the three of them and no one else.
That night, Hermione had conjured three shoulder bags and started to pack them with the essensials, Stakes, crosses, Holy Water, and an axe and sword for herself.
She met them outside the main doors to the castle and they were looking at the sharp looking buldges in the bags.
"What's in there?" Ron asked pointing at the most packed bag.
"Just a few things well most defineatlly need" she passed them around
"always carry one of these" she handed them a cross.
"Why?" Harry asked looking at it.
"Protection" was all Hermione said, she lead the way and everyone was nervous.
They had walked for about three hours when Ginny said "What the Hell are we doing here?"
"Sssh!" said hermione, she saw the bush russle, "Be quiet, always stay quiet!"
She ripped the axe from her bag and heard Awes from Harry and Ginny and a Whimper from Ron.
She turned quickly and a shadow pounced on her, she was pinned to the floor and couldn't move her arms.
"Hermione!" Ron shouted, she pulled her feet up and placed them in the middle of the figures stomach and pushed with an almighty force. The figure flew through the air and the others follwed him through.
"Hermione that was!"
"Shut up! Just let me dust him!" she whipped out a stake from the inside pocket of her coat and sprang on the thing. She was kicked back but she remained intact she gave a high kick to the face and Ron pulled out a torch. It shone onto the figures face. It was a vampire, not any vampire this was Theo, she had been put up against him before and she had lost, but this time she was determined to win.
He hit her, kicked her, picked her up and threw her. All the while Ginny was crying and Ron and Harry were trying to cast spells but none of them worked.
"I'll kill you this time slayer!" he said and threw her at a tree she hit it and felt like her back had shattered into a thousand pieces, she fell unconscious and didn't move. Theo huffed and walked back into the forest, not noticing the other three as he was too busy with the slayer, and plus he didn't care about three kids, he did his business and left.
Ron and Harry ran towards Hermione who struggled to get up she leaned against the tree and fineally stood up stright.
"What happened!" one minute you were fighting like a martial arts genius and thenyou let him pound you! Why?" Harry looked at her.
"I'll get him soon" was all she said and they helped her back to the castle
"Hermione, what did he mean when he called you a slayer?"
