Hermione watched as Tonks and Moody talked to Harry's relatives. It was rather amusing to watch to watch the boy who she supposed was Harry's cousin. He seemed very afraid of these people who must of looked strange to him. Poor Harry having to live with those muggles.
She sighed and headed over to her own parents that immediately engulfed her in a hug. As much as she loved Hogwarts, and she really did, she missed her parents and was sad that they were steadily growing apart.
She gave her trunk to her father and gave her mother another quick hug before jumping into the car.
Crookshanks at the moment was purring angrily and Hermione shushed it. "Darling is your cat angry?" Mrs. Granger looked suspiciously at Crookshanks. Past experience taught her that the cat was a force to be reckoned with.
"Relax Mum! He just needs to stretch her legs after the long train ride" Hermione answered. Mr. Granger had caught the last part of the conversation.
"Seems to me dear that you can almost tell what the creature is thinking." Mr. Granger looked at the cat again as though it was invading his daughters mind.
"I sort of can. He is half kneazle after all."
"Kneazle?" Mrs. Granger looked fearful as though the Kneazle was the most dangerous species known to man.
"Relax mum. Kneazles are like a type of highly intelligent cats plus powers."
As soon as she got home she unpacked her trunk. Her room had looked the same as the last time she saw it. Her white bedspread drew attention as almost everything else in the room was blue. The walls were light colored and the curtains, trims, and asseroces were a dark navy.
Her ceiling had all the real constellations on it. She had even made a potion to have them move when ever a real constellation did. As she flopped back onto to her bed she thought it was good to be home.
Dinner was a causal affair and Hermione's parents had all sorts of questions. She showed them pictures of her, Harry, and Ron. They were astounded to see them moving. Before long her parents went to bed as they had dental appointments early in the morning.
As soon as she got to her room she noticed that there was two birds sitting there. The first one she recognized as Hedwig, who was Harry's owl. Immediately she opened the letter.
Dear Hermione,
The Dursleys are going on a vacation this summer. That means I get to spend the summer with you guys seeing as how they would never bring me along. All I have to do is find a place to stay. Probably the Burrow. After this I'm writing a letter to Ron. I'm doing fine so far and don't worry just write back soon.
Harry
His letter sounded fine, but Hermione seriously doubted he was. After what happened with Sirius who would be?
The Dursleys seemed so clue less. Going on vacation when Harry was emotionally suffering. How thick can some people get?
She thought it odd that Harry didn't consider the Burrow home. You would think Dumbledore would be concerned about that. The Burrow and not Grimwauld Place! The thought struck her suddenly, Oh he really is doing bad. I don't care what his letter said me and Ron need to help him!
It was only then that she looked at the other bird, and gasped as she reconized it.
Authors Note: Hello everyone! Sorry it took me so long to update but I guess I like reveiwing and reading more then writting. Also I was plotting my latest evil scheme which involves a mental experiment on my friends without them knowing! Don't worry, its nothing serious. Just trying to convince them a word exists. Hope this chapter dosen't suck too bad. Please Reveiw and give any helpful coments you may have! I will take all criticism bravely. Please note that I already have half of the 3rd chapter written but you won't see unless I get reveiws!
sumwhere-over-the-rainbow: Thanks for your honest opoion! What exactly about the ending did you not like? I'm glad you thought it was decent and thanks for reveiwing!
sophianwin: I have no intention what so ever of Harry going to the burrow. Of course I wouldn't stick him with the Dursleys. I am so not that cruel! Hmph! Anyways don't worry about the plot. It will thicken once school starts. I tried to make this one longer! It is by 323 words!
Funness: Thanks for reveiwing my storry. I am sorry about the bad grammar. Please point out any from this chapter so I can fix it! I know that he is still sad about Sirius but I don't think he is going to be super depressed and such! He has matured and will get over it. I know I'm trying to! That was just mean of the famous J.K. Rowling to do such a thing. NO it wasn't negetive I appreciate constructive criticism!
Ainariel-Helyanwe: I did revise the first chapter a bit for you. Reveiw again!
