Hermione's Room
Hermione looked in the muggle hand mirror that her mother gave her. The mirror was a family item yet, her mother knew that Hermione would never truly be part of their muggle family. The mirror her mother said had been past from her family, a queen gave it to her family and the eldest daughter always got the mirror and the mirror had to be past onto the next generation. Hermione cried she wanted to have a normal family and normal friends.
Ginny looked at the large door that separated her from her best friend. Ginny gave the door a hard nock and walked to find her friend crying holding an old sliver mirror. "What is wrong Hermione?"
Hermione looked at her best friend and smiled. "Do you see this mirror?"
"Yes, but what is wrong?" Ginny sat down on the large bed.
"This mirror has been past down each generation in the Granger family." Hermione looked even closer at the mirror.
"Yes," Ginny looked at the silver mirror, "and the problem is?"
"I am not a Granger," Hermione put down the mirror. "My father is one of the greatest wizards in our world. Albus Dumbledore. He gave me away to a muggle family years ago. Now he wants me to accept him so he dies. That old man will pay for what he has done with my life and my life is going to change from this day forth." She laughed and threw the mirror to the wall and watched it shatter. "Tell them that I am going out and don't bother to come looking for me." Hermione grabbed her cloak, wand and then walked out of the room leaving Ginny alone.
Ginny walked over to the broken pieces of the old mirror, repaired, and replaced it on Hermione's bed for her to find. There that's better. She walked out of her friends best friend room.
Ginny ran to the Headmaster's office. She stood and screamed to let her in the office. She got no answer from there and ran to the only other person she cared. Remus Lupin. The further she ran the more she became scared.
Ginny took a deep breath as she stood in front of Remus's door. With a silent nock, Remus came to the door. His bright amber eyes pierced through Ginny's eyes. "Hermione ran away. I don't know where she went all I know she was mad."
"No not now." Remus ran for his cloak and ran to find Sirius.
Ginny looked around, shrugged, and followed the werewolf.
Sirius paced the floor. "You have to be joking she ran off." Then he stopped and looked at Remus, "what did you do to her?"
"I didn't do anything it was her father." Remus eyes flashed brighter amber. "Why the bloody hell did she…"
Sirius interrupted Remus before he could finish his sentence. "What did her father do to her?"
"You will have to ask him you self." Remus's eyes grew even brighter, "That old man is going to be the death of that girl."
"Shut the bloody hell up the both of you. Hermione needs our help and the only way that we are going to help her is to stop fighting." She walked up to Sirius. "She may very well be here at Hogwarts for all we know. Moreover, we have the edge here; you have a higher sense of smell than me, and Professor you can see and hear far better that me. I can look in the castle and you two can look outside we will cover much more ground that way than fighting."
Remus looked at Ginny, "give it to a woman to come up with a plan. Sirius here up and become a dog and let's head out and we will meet her at midnight." Remus took off in a run with Sirius behind him.
"Now if I was Hermione where would I be?" Ginny looked at the wall.
"She is getting the dark mark with most of the Slytherin students. Like them I can't stop her all I can hope for is that she comes back alive." Professor Dumbledore leaned against the doorframe. "I should have known she would run. I just hoped that she wouldn't do anything this big." He took a big breath and fell to the hard cold floor.
Hermione stood in the middle of the black robes of Death Eaters, "so you are the newest leader."
The leader dragged his hood off his head; his platinum blonde hair fell around the bony face of Lucius Malfoy. "You were always a smart girl. To bad you have to die tonight." He laughed at the young girl.
"Then kill me." She stood her ground and she showed no fear in the larger man. "Then you will never know why I came here for you."
He stopped his laugh and looked at the girl. "You're right now what do you want and how did you get here?"
She turned he face to the smaller figure standing behind Lucius, "Unlike your son, I know when to look behind me to watch people from following me."
How did she know that my son was the last? "You have no proof to this." He looked at his son.
"Oh, but the mind can tell lies to everyone but me. I can read minds." She looked around and smiled. "Give me a test in reading minds and if I fall short of just one word you can kill me, but if I pass you make me one of you." She held her wand out and the tip shinned gold.
"Why not?" He held his wand out and it to shinned gold until they touched and turned blue. Let's start now.
She spoke the words of the leaders mind: "Let's start now."
"You are smarter than you look." He looked around. You will never be better than a pure blood, you mudblood. Stop trying this will only get you killed. Now if you can repeat this word for word walk up and prepare for pain.
Her face never changed except for her smile. "You will never be better than a pure blood, you mudblood. Stop trying this will only get you killed. Now if you can repeat this word for word," she stepped closer to Lucius, "walk up and prepare for pain." She smiled. "Things can change I am not a mudblood nor will I bloody ever be my father is Albus Dumbledore."
"A wizard deal is a wizard deal. I will give you the mark that burns all of your arms a mark that Voldemort gave the old ones. Now pull your sleeve up and hold out your arm." She did as he told.
Red flames shoot out of his wand and then circled her arm. Out of the fire a snake formed, that showed his fangs and crashed into her arms and the skull and snake formed on her arm. Hermione didn't blink or move. "You call that pain?"
"Draco, take her to my room and wait for me there." Lucius motioned for the next student to come forth and receive the dark mark.
"Come." Draco took her by the arm and led her to his father's room.
Draco shut the door and looked at Hermione, "what are you doing here? My father wants to bed you now and he will want me to watch. You should have stayed at Hogwarts." Stupid woman. Now she will know that I am working for her father and she will have me killed.
"No I won't have you killed. I don't know why I am here I got mad and ran off. I need your help with this. You know our newest teacher." She looked at the doorway.
"Yeah the werewolf. Why are you asking." He took a step closer, "I can't think around you can I?"
"You can Draco I just will know what you say and some times that is not the best thing. Is your father trying to get you to marry and produce an heir?" She turned around to him.
"Yes, and I fear that he will want me to marry a stupid girl that will want to shop. How did you know?" Draco looked away. When did she get so beautiful?
"Sorry Draco I like men. I just know your father. Why don't we convince him to marry us and we both can be spies with out your spouses turning us in." She looked around the room.
"Does…does that mean I have to share a bed with you?" He groaned.
"You do want an heir once this is over, don't you?" She turned towards him. "I will have my other lovers."
"What do I get in this deal?" He walked up closer to her. "That is if I don't get you." He smiled.
"You don't have to marry flop of a girl and a bed of lovers." She walked even closer to him. Then she stopped and read the mind of Lucius 'That girl is going to get it.' She walked even closer, "your father is coming." She placed her mouth on Draco's as Lucius opened the door.
"Leave kids alone and they think they are grown up. Do you I was thinking about bedding Hermione now I have a better idea: you two will get married. What do you say Draco is she good enough for you?"
Draco pulled away, "far better than I thought." He smiled and looked at his father.
