Chapter 15-- Explanations
"What do you want, Weasel?" Sneered Draco, but Hermione was tugging the hem of his robe constantly, tried to prevent a violence. Draco turned toward Hermione, as the witch spoke so quietly that only him is able to hear it.
"Draco, no." Hermione said lightly, "He's one of my best friends, and he will always be. You need to learn to tolerate his attitude, though I think yours is not very well mannered, as well. Since you had learn to endure me, try to endure him. If you still can't, just ignore him and-"
"Hermione, sweetheart," Draco said as silently, "You know you just recovered from death, so try not to talk too much. I will handle this myself, I promise I won't start a fight." Hermione shot a glare at the mischievous looking on her husband's pale face, but she did believe in him, so she just decided to let him go. Draco turned back to the red head, and started talking.
"Excuse me, Weasley," Draco managed to stay as not taunting as he can possibly muster, but it wasn't an easy task for the Slytherin King. He continued, "Hermione needs some rest, so would you please go out of this infirmary if you can manage."
"Then why are you staying here? Are you her husband? I think not, so get over with it, I'm Hermione's best friend, that's what she needs right now, not a taunting boy." Ron said sarcastically.
"As a matter of fact, I am Hermione's dear groom, of you would recall." Draco shot back, enjoying the fear expression on the Weasley's freckled face, "In fact, she loves me as much as she can, right dear?" Draco turned toward Hermione, who is now sitting upright on the infirmary bed, she did not want to cause a fight, so she started gently.
"Ron, look, don't get mad at me," Hermione said, "And I really do like him, I really don't want you to get into a fight so please I will explain to you." Ron's short temper was getting up, he soon practically shouted at Hermione.
"WHAT?! You are Malfoy's wife? Why did you hide this to Harry and me the whole time, I need your answer right now, so spit it out!" The red head said, or rather yelled.
"Look, Weasley, Hermione was just dead for about ten minutes, she needs her recovery, of you needed an explanation, I will tell you, all right? Now get your ear over here cause I really don't want to explain it twice and three times.
"It all started in the summer after the fifth year. Hermione Granger was walking along the blocks in the Diagon Alley, because she desired to purchase a book for her reading of the summer. She walked casually into the Flourish and Blotts, looking for a good length book. Hermione looked through the shelves of the quiet book shop, but yet she did not find a book to her desire. She soon stumble upon a five-inch wide book, named Shona, the Rideress of the Wind, this caught her interest, so she slid the book out of the wooden shelf. Hermione settled herself onto cushioned chair beside the counter, and started the Prologue.
"It was very fascinating, it was about Shona, who was a princess of the Herulean Empire, an wizard civilization lies widely along the coast of the Mediterranean, which is near the Middle East. Her life was going really fine until one day, her father, the emperor summoned her to the palace. Even though he is her father, they hardly meet once a year, which Shona didn't really care. She was curious about the summoning of her father, so she asked what's wrong, her father's reply was merely "You are going to be the sacrifice of King Savior", a god of the Herulean Empire. Every seventeen years, a girl has to be sacrifice in order to ensure the safety of the Empire, and that year was Shona's turn. They prepared for her and the day she is about to be sacrificed by the fire, a thieve tribe came, and snatched her away. The next parts was about the love between Shona and the heir of the tribe, Isic. Romance bloomed after Isic saved Shona from and incident, her father send out soldiers to catch her back, and Shona was nowhere to be freed until Isic came out from nowhere and lead Shona to a secret cave he used to go when he was little. They had find out each other's interest when they stayed together in the cave, and their love soon developed. They stayed in the cave for three days, they swam in the lake near the cavern, the hunted wild animals for food, it was really fun while it lasted. They soon followed their tracks back to the Thief Tribe, the leader's purpose was to keep the princess in prison as a hostage, but Isic defied him. The leader putted Isic and Shona in jail, but one of Isic's friend, Grusel, helped them escape. Shona traveled around the world with Isic, their love had been built up even stronger than steel. During their voyage, they did not travel by foot, they did not travel on camels, they were carried around by Shona's friend, the wind. Shona had been a Wind Adept, or someone who is capable of manipulating wind at her/his will, since she was born. Once, Shona fell down from the high roof of her palace, but the wind soon swept by, and carried her safely to the ground. But her father did not acknowledge this magic, he just let it go the way it does. That's the origin of this book's title, Shona, the Rideress of the Wind. After five years of traveling, they soon stumbled upon a stone chamber in the middle of a desert. They solved the puzzle with their wisdom and their love, so they are granted the permission to enter another dimension, where the spent the remainder of their life there, very happy indeed.A/n: Whewww... Such a long paragraph...
"Now let's get back to reality. Hermione only read the Prologue, but I explained the whole story to you since I already read it. Hermione soon found a letter, like a bookmark of a story, sticking out from the bottom of the thick book. It fell out, so Hermione picked it up carefully. It was in green ink, and it wasn't addressed to anybody, but the writer's name is clearly on the envelope, his name is Silver. Hermione carefully slip the parchment out of the envelope and skimmed through it. The whole parchment was some comments on the book, Hermione really liked this Silver's type of literature, so she read the short summary again carefully:
"For in that sleep of death, dreams might come." Shona and Isic's love is really described in merely a line of sentence. Shona was filled with fear and ecstasy when she is first captured by the thief tribe, as it describe, "For in that sleeps of death". Soon the romance blossomed between Isic and Shona, which was said as "Dreams might come". Although Shakespeare is famous of tragedy, his comedy was nonethlessly precise.
Silver, a sincere reader
"Hermione was a very big fan of Shakespeare, so she did have some feelings for this Silver. As she got home she decided to write a letter to Silver. They soon became very good penfriends with each other. As the-
"Now, Malfoy," Ron said, tried to sound uninterested, "You explained all of these, what does these have to do with Hermione and you?"
"Excuse me, Weasel-ley. Did I finished what I was saying? So where was I, oh yeah. As the summer past, Hermione had been communicate with this Silver. She learned a lot from him, and he learned many from her. At the end of the summer, Hermione was about to go back to Hogwarts. Her parents told her something about her life, so now she is a pureblood witch.
"She went to her real home, the Grentasia Manor and saw me. We are forced to marry but soon developed friendship and lovelihood." Draco said as he looked back at Hermione and beamed at her.
"So, why did Hermione end up in St. Mungos." Ron asked, demanding for answers.
"Well, I thought-" Draco answered as Hermione interrupted him, "I got in a car accident."
"Hermione, I thought you were really careful!" Ron said as he left the infirmary.
"Thanks for covering for me, sweetheart." Draco said to Hermione.
"Don't mention it." Hermione replied as she placed a gentle kiss on Draco's lip. By now, the sun had rised completely, covering the horizon completely with red light. The Cupid was really satisfied with his effort, he flew into the rising sky…
