Chapter 22: Amnesia
I walked with my dear Cassara to the classroom. There seemed to be a commotion outside of the room so I opened the door to see what was going on.
There was a girl dancing in the hallway singing music coming from a muggle MP3 player. It was disgraceful. A few times she stopped to kiss a boy who I hoped was her boyfriend by the way they were kissing.
I noticed a Gryffindor badge on her robes and analyzed the young woman. She was wearing a miniaturized school skirt with different sized red and gold patches. There were also patches on her too small, not completely buttoned up shirt. Her necktie hung loosely on her neck. She had on red Mary Jane's with high heels. Her hair was in a messy bun and a headband that matched the patches on her clothes.
I looked at the people around her and noticed that they were all Slytherins until a crowd began to form.
At the first bell she got rid of the MP3 player and the boy she kept kissing put his arm around her.
I could not believe that this girl was accepted into Hogwarts, and was in Gryffindor no less!
"I hope that Hermione is not friends with the people outside" I told Cass as I made my way to the back of the classroom where I was to wait, for Cass had told me that Hermione was in this class.
Students began to file into the room. The girl I saw dancing in the hall came in with two boys at her side. She whispered something to one of them and the two walked away from her. She walked to Cassara and said something.
Cassara nodded and the girl left the room.
I wondered what had just happened.
"Now class, before I begin the lesson, I would like you to all take out your history books that I gave you yesterday and read chapter twenty-nine." Cassara said. "You have ten minutes because it is a short chapter."
Ten minutes later the girl from the hallway came into the room and whispered something to my beloved. She then turned around and sat beside the boy that she came in with, the one with the blond hair.
"Please put your books down whether you have finished or not. It appears that Harry and Ron will be out for today's lesson. Hermione, please give them your notes." I tried to see who she was talking to, but could not. "Now if you would al turn around, you will see my assistant for this and some upcoming lessons." She signaled for me to stand up, which I did. "Class, may I introduce you to Nicolas, Prince Nick, as most of you know him better as, prince of the wizarding world, and my husband"
The girl in the front row fell over. I saw that it was the girl from outside.
Cassara rushed over to her.
"Hermione, are you okay?" the boy from next to her asked as he rushed down to her side.
THIS WAS MY DAUGHTER?
She slowly got up and looked at me.
"Um, maybe we should begin the lesson." Cassara said as the boy helped Hermione into her chair. "Now as all of you have read, Nick, come up here please, comes from a similar line that I do. His family contains some of the most dangerous demons and magical beings, including Dementor, which we will be practicing to fight today. Now please will whoever was in the DA last year please come up."
Hermione, a round boy and some other children stood up and walked to the front of the classroom.
"Please perform your patronus" Cassara instructed.
A joyful silver otter flew gracefully from Hermione's wand. All of the other attempts were just silver vapor, though most of them did begin to take a form.
"Good job Hermione." Cassara said, sending everyone back to her's or his seats besides her. "Now Nick, please come up here" I walked up to the middle of the circle of desks, in front of Cass. "Now class, Nick is not fully Dementor, and he has trained himself to not fear the patronus, but if you look closely you will see that he does" she giggled. "Go ahead Hermione"
"EXPECTO PATRONUM!" she yelled. The otter charged towards me.
I tried not to flinch, but I jumped out of the way. Hermione must be a powerful witch, for I have never been afraid of a patronus, or an otter.
As the silver creature was about to hit me Hermione called it back into her wand (A/N I don't know how they work!)
"Great job Hermione! I've never seen him so afraid of a patronus before." Casssra said. "You may go sit down. Now class, this is what I hope that we will be getting up to by the end of the semester. That is our semester goal. For now though, we will be learning about dementors and their history. Nick, will you please come to my desk?"
I walked up to her as the class began to read the textbooks in front of them.
"So what do you think of her?" she whispered to me
"That is my daughter?! That's the girl I was talking about before, the one dancing in the hallway and making out with that boy! And what about the outfit!" I hissed back.
"Hey, she has spirit! She's an individual doing her own thing. She is a beauty."
"Yes, and a very powerful witch. That otter was strong."
Cassara giggled. "Aw, is big strong Nick afraid of the wittle otter?" she asked in baby talk.
"Nick me now, but do you remember how we met?" she smiled at me.
After a while the bell rang. All of the students piled out of the room.
"Hermione, tonight I will be needing you for something, you too Mister Malfoy, it is about what we discussed yesterday." Cassara said as Hermione made her way out of the room with Mister Malfoy, who was the blond boy, and the boy she kept kissing before.
"Who were those two boys?" I demanded as soon as everyone was out of the room and the door closed.
"Don't talk to me like that!"
"I don't care! I want to know who the hell they are! What kind of school allows what they were doing in the hallway? Those two boys are-"
"The second best student in their year plus one of her best and oldest friends and her boyfriend. You'll meet the boy tonight for his fake tutoring session." She looked down at her papers and began to grade the one on the top of the pile. The name on it was Harry Potter.
"Harry Potter, is that the boy from the prophesy? The one with Voldemort?" I asked her.
"Mhm. He's also on the quidditch team, in Gryffindor, one of Hermione's first and best friends here, and in the infirmary right now with his friend Ron. Both of which Hermione injured with her powers. I only hope that she is able to control them until she is eighteen." Cass sighed.
"Why? What happens when she is eighteen?" I asked nervously
"Well, her powers get taken away until he twenty-first birthday so that her own power can develop." Cassara said casually. She looked up. "Didn't I tell you that?"
"No!"
In The Great Hall During Lunch
"He is so hot!"
"Ooh, get me a piece of that!"
"Mm mm mm mm mm!"
"Toothache much!"
All of the girls were talking about Professor Riddle's husband, or as they preferred to call him, her assistant. All except one.
Hermione could see that he had broad shoulders and was built. He had little dimples on his cheeks when he smiled and his hair fell to his face in a way that Draco's did, but he was her father and that just turned her off. She thought that he looked like a character from Evil Concarne (the cartoon on cartoon network with the brain) because of that thought.
"What do you think Hermione?" she heard.
"W-what?" she snapped. She turned to Ginny, Parvati and Lavender.
"Prince Nick" Lavender urged
Parvati sighed
"He is H-O-T hot, girl!" Ginny said
"You had better be talking about that dead chicken in front of you and how it's too hot to eat Virginia" a voice from behind Hermione demanded.
She whipped around and saw Harry and Ron behind her. She jumped up and grabbed them into a large bear hug.
"I am so so so so so so so so so so so SO sorry guys!" she rambled.
"It's okay Hermione, but what are you apologizing for?" Harry asked.
"What do you mean? I flung you each at least a hundred and fifty yards!" she said
"I don't remember that" Ron said scratching her head.
"Come on" Hermione grabbed their hands and pulled the two out of the Great Hall. "What the hell is going on with you two?" Hermione exclaimed as they turned the corner.
"Nothing. We just woke up in the infirmary a few minutes ago." Harry said "Maybe you should lie down somewhere"
"No! What year is it?" she asked them
"2004" Ron answered
"What is the last thing you two remember?" Hermione asked.
"We were at the quidditch post talking." Harry said
"About what?"
"I don't really remember. Do you Ron?"
"No, it probably wasn't that important."
"It must have been the curse I read about" Hermione said to herself
"What curse?" Harry asked.
"Well, you know about my family, right? Well when specific magics are used then the person attacked or whoever it happened to loses specific memories. You guys obviously forgot about the diary" Hermione explained.
"But isn't your family muggles?" Ron asked.
"No Ron! My mother is Cassara! Remember?" Hermoine pleaded. "Please stop joking around."
"Princess Cassara?!" Harry exclaimed
"You're related to the hottest professor at the school?" Ron asked.
"Yes! You guys know tha-wait! You forgot that too?" Hermione asked.
"Apparently so" said a figure from behind the boys. As he got closer, Hermione realized that it was Prince Ni-her father. "That was how I met your mother, or at least partly how. I know how to get their memories back. Then maybe we can talk"
Hermione looked into his deep green eyes and nodded.
Nick took her two confused friends away.
Hermione turned to leave when she saw Draco standing behind her.
"Great, so now my friends are going to be angry at me for erasing part of their memory" she said as she walked into his arms.
Draco smirked. "If only you could make them remember that I am better than them"
Hermione slapped Draco's arm.
"Hey Draco, do you have a date for the dance?" Hermione asked Draco on their way to their next class, Herbology
"Well, some girls have asked me-" Hermione looked up at him.
"Some?"
"A ton of girls asked me, but I was thinking of going stag."
"The famous Draco Sex God, Slytherin Prince Malfoy is going to a dance stag?" she said in disbelief.
"Look whose talking, Princess of the Wizarding World and Hogwarts" Draco joked. "If we had a prom, you'd be crowned queen"
"So not. I'm only princess of the wizarding world, nothing else" Hermione blushed "Except maybe your date to the dance?"
"I thought you'd be going with Blaise" Draco said as he quickly came to a halt.
"Well, I don't really know. I think I want to go with you I will see him there, but I want you to be my date. So what do you say?"
"Blaise is my best friend" she gave him the sad puppy eyes "fine, but you are the one who will be telling him."
