Chapter 1
it had been a whole summer since i had last seen hogwarts, but it might as well have been forever. i spent all summer trying to reinvent myself with the hopes that my efforts wouldnt go to waste.
"hermoine!" my mom called from downstairs, "we have to leave in 5 min. if you want to catch your last train to hogwarts!" her words echoed in my head. my last train? is it really my last train? i couldnt believe that my 7 years at hogwarts were almost over. i had seen so much, i had been through so much. now i was leaving, i had only one more year to spend at my second home before it was all over and i was thrust out into the real world. a world where voldermort was becoming a bigger threat every day and the fucking idiots running the ministry of magic had no idea what the hell they were doing.
but now was not the time to consider the real world, i still had one more year, after all, and i was determined to make it count. not only for ron, harry, and the rest of my friends, but for myself as well. i checked my carry on bag one last time to make sure that i had everything packed for the train that i would need. my c.d. player along with my hundreds of mixed c.d.s i had burned for myself over the summer, my mini t.v. that could be blown up with the proper spells, my d.v.d. player, my diary, my notebook, everything was in there. i had taught myself a spell that could make muggle electronics be able to run without electricity and therefore, able to be used at hogwarts. i took one last glance at myself in my full length mirror hanging on my bathroom door. i had black leather boots coming up just over my knees. i was wearing a black miniskirt over my just-shaved legs to go with my boots. i had on a light pink halter top with my new shiny head girl badge pinned on top of it, and tons of bangles. my newly straightened shiny hair with blonde highlights was cascading down my back. i was wearing a touch of eyeliner under my eyes, some eyeshadow, mascara, and clear lip gloss. of course, my mom could never know i was wearing this. she still hadnt gotten used to my straight hair, let alone my shaved legs and my miniskirts. this was my friends' work, not mine. so, in order to cover up appearences, i ran to my closet and pulled a puke green ankle length skirt over my gorgeous boots and pulled a light pink sweater over my halter top. i must have looked like i was 10, and not 16 going on 17, but i didnt want to start the new school year off in a fight with my mom.
"coming mom!" i called as i grabbed my bag and clonked down the stairs in my boots. my mom was standing at the foot of the stairs, camera in hand.
"aww sweety you look so cute!" cute was definately not what i was going for, although my didnt have to know that. "let me take a picture of you!"
"mom," i rolled my eyes, "im going to miss the train."
"just one? please?" my mom begged
"not like i have a choice," i grinned as my mom started taking hundreds of pictures to show my children when they grew older. just then, my dad came into the living room fastening his tie over his neck.
"well, i have to leave for work, but i just wanted to congratulate you on starting your last year at hogwarts!" my dad said
"i know! doesnt she look so cute??" they started exchanging memories of me...did u remember when hermoine did this?...aww remember her first day of school?...
"GUYS!! IM GOING TO MISS THE BLOODY TRAIN!" i screamed. my mom looked at me
"ok then, lets go! no need to yell."
"bye dad, ill write letters, i promise."
"bye hermoine." i grabbed my bag and ran to the car sitting in the front seat. my mom came in and started the engine.
"are you ready?" she asked. i nodded. "ok then, lets go!" and we drove away to Kings Cross Station, where my last year at hogwarts was about to begin.
