Cealz: I think I might put Lockhart in this chapter. I really like Lockhart too. And for the one-millionth time, Ron and Hermione WILL get together.
Xzaire: Yeah, I changed my name because I got sick of my old one, so I changed it. Yeah, I almost cried too. But I also cry when I watch certain movies, I am really emotional. I hope Ron isn't over Hermione, or else it will ruin the story, shuts up before she reveals any details. Yeah, Poor Ginny.

Chapter 9: Hermione's Story
By: Medha Gupta
Parvati woke up after a refreshing sleep. She was thinking about what happened yesterday. She had so many questions. She knew that Hermione would answer most of them today, but she was so confused. She was also feeling sick, she needed to throw up. She ran to the bathroom and threw up in the toilet. Hearing some noises, Harry also woke up. He saw Parvati throwing up, and he ran to her.
"Parvati, dear, what happened?"
"Morning sickness," Parvati said, she then saw the look on Harry's face and quickly added, "It's regular, I'll get used to it, remember, this is only for a small while."
"God, I hope you are okay." Harry said embracing her.
"I'm fine, and I just remembered, I need to go over to St. Mungo's, I need to see a patient, and will you come with me? Then we can both go to Hermione's together."
"Sure, let me get ready."
"Okay." They quickly kissed and went away to change. Harry quickly pulled on some robes and combed his hair. When he came out, he saw that Parvati was ready. They both apparated over to St. Mungo's together, and Parvati went upstairs to her floor. Harry decided to get some coffee, so he went upstairs and on his way to the coffee place he saw a familiar face going up the stairs.
"Professor Lockhart!?"
"Golly, are you calling me, my, do I know you from somewhere?" He asked, his incredibly white teeth glistening, and his blue eyes twinkling.
"Yeah, what are you doing outside of the ward?"
"What ward?" He asked still smiling. Harry grabbed his arm, and dragged him to his ward when a healer popped out, "Hi, I'm Dan, Oh no! He left us again, Thanks, you know something?"
"What?" Harry asked, he was feeling annoyed, he needed some coffee SOON!
"There is a new experimental potion, we might use it on him, poor guy, but he'll have his memory again, all brand new, and he will remember everything. Oh, you are leaving now? Well, bye! Nice talking to you!" Harry left, it was amazing how people can talk so much and not stop. He went back up the stairs and then he saw Parvati. He wanted to kiss her quickly and then go upstairs. He ran over to her, and saw from close it was his sister-in-law, Padma.
"Hi Harry!"
"Hi Padma" Harry said feeling a little embarrassed.
"How are you?"
"Fine, did you hear about Parvati having a baby?"
"Yeah, she owled me as soon as she heard, I'm so excited I am going to be an aunt. Did you know that I am engaged?"
"Congratulations!" Harry said. He felt happy for her.
"Yeah, you are the first to know." She said sheepishly.
"Really? Who are you engaged to?"
"Well, you might be surprised, but Dean Thomas. He works right here you know." She said blushing bright red.
"Congratulations! I'm happy for you. Okay, well I won't make you delay your work; well I'll just leave now." Harry said.
"Bye!" Padma called. Harry turned around and waved, he was turning back around when he saw something interesting.
Permanent Healing Ward
Ginerva M. Weasley.- Healer Thomas.
Harry was stunned, he opened the door and went inside, he saw the familiar red hair, she was up and reading a book, and Molly and Arthur Weasley were sitting with her. They looked happy for the first time in years. They finally looked up when the heard the door open. Arthur spoke up. "Harry Potter, How good it is to see you again."
"Same to you Mr. Weasley."
"Not Mr. Weasley, Arthur."
"Okay, Arthur." Mr. Weasley, Arthur, smiled a little. "Hi Ginny." Harry said.
"Hi Harry, Look, they found something so I can move my arms around." Ginny said happily. Molly looked up.
"Oh, I hope that they find a cure for her whole body. Harry, come here sit down, did you know Percy finally came and apologized?'
"He did?" Harry asked.
"Yes, he even paid for Ginny staying in the hospitals here, the healers are working non-stop for her."
"Oh, does Ron know?"
"We were going to tell him tomorrow."
"Okay, I'll have to go now, bye Molly and Arthur, bye Ginny, I'll come back tomorrow."
"Bye Harry." They all said. Harry got to the stairs and went up. He got to the coffee room, got some coffee, and sat down, Moments later Parvati came and sat down for a little bit.
"Hi Harry." She said, and then he pulled her into a kiss. "Mmmmm, Harry stop." He pulled back, still smiling.
"What's wrong?"
"Something came up, I'm afraid you will have to go to Hermione's room alone for a while, I'll come in a few hours." She said. Harry answered back.
"Okay, you just work, but you owe me BIG TIME!"
"Fine, bye." Parvati said
"Bye dear." Harry said back kissing her cheek and leaving. Harry apparated over to Hermione's place and she was waiting for him in the pub. They went up and Harry looked around. There was one small dingy bathroom in one corner, and there was a mattress with some of the springs sticking out. There was a small blanket, and 3 chairs (She obviously conjured them.).
"It's not much, but it is all I can afford." Hermione said sheepishly.
"No, Hermione, It's okay, after all, I had no money at one point to, at least no muggle money."
"I remember."
"Okay, so tell your story."
"No, let's wait for Parvati." Hermione insisted. Harry agreed and sat down on the bed which let out a giant creak, and Harry jumped up and sat down on one of the chairs. Hermione was busy giggling. Harry looked up at her with a look of anger, he grabbed a pillow and started hitting her, and pretty soon, they got into a pillow fight. They fought for about 30 minutes and then sat down on chairs, panting. Hermione then spoke up.
"Harry?"
"Hmmm?"
"Why did you marry Parvati?"
"Well it was a while ago, but did you hear about Ginny?" Hermione nodded her head saying no, and then Harry added. "Let me start at the beginning."
Flashback
We were engaged, Ginny and I, well, we were really happy together, more love than anything. I never took advantage of her, and she didn't take advantage of me. Well, one day, I was planning for our wedding and then Ron came into the room panting.
"Harry! (Gasp) It's Ginny, she got hit by a curse, and it was (gasp) Malfoy who (gasp) hit her." I didn't need to be told twice! I ran out of the apartment building and ran halfway to St. Mungo's before I realized that I could apparate there. I cursed mentally, swung into an ally and apparated over to the Hospital. I ran up the stairs and I ran right into Arthur.
"Harry, she is going to be fine, just relax and sit down."
"No sir, I can't relax, my fiancé is hurt, I NEED TO SEE HER DO YOU HEAR ME?!"
"Yes Harry, I hear you. I'm not deaf, I really want you to breathe, she'll be fine, she'll be fine, she'll be fine." With that Arthur sat down looking like he was dying or something. I couldn't take it anymore; I sat down and started crying. I could feel sobs just racking by body, my fiancé was probably going to die. I didn't think I could take another death, first my parents, then Sirius, then Lupin, and now Ginny? I knew that if she died then I wouldn't ever be able to show my face ever again. I felt like HELL Hermione, HELL. For 3 long hours we waited. Tonks came to check up on us. She now had her natural look, long silky black hair, beautiful green eyes, and she was short. Ever since Lupin died, she stopped changing; she didn't have the will power anymore. She sat down with us and held Molly's hand while Molly cried. Soon Fred, George, and Ron came. They looked distraught. They didn't want to lose another family member after Bill and Charlie had died protecting me. They all looked grim. The only brother that didn't show up was Percy. Soon the Healer came out, it was none other than Parvati Patil, she beckoned Arthur aside and they talked in hushed voices for 15 minutes. Soon Arthur came back; he was deathly white and pale. He then took one look at all of us and broke down sobbing uncontrollably. It was terrible, Parvati motioned for all of us to come inside, and we saw Ginny. She was a sickly green, and she looked like she was experiencing a lot of pain. I went over to Parvati and asked her about it.
"Hey, Parvati, can I have a word?"
"Yeah, sure Harry."
"Um, well, is Ginny going to be okay?"
"No, there is no cure for what she was hit by, do you have any ideas what happened?"
"Not really, they only found her wincing in pain on the side of the street."
"Well, we can do one thing..."
"What?"
"There is a potion but it will paralyze her, she can take it and then she won't have any more pain." Well, as you can guess, she took the potion, now she is paralyzed, but she can move her arms a little bit now, but anyways how I married Parvati was like this.
"Mr. Weasley, when will the wedding take place?" I asked a couple days later.
"Well, Ginny requested that you guys don't marry,"
"WHAT??!!" I asked angrily. I ran into Ginny's room and asked her "What do you mean cancel the wedding?"
"Harry, I don't think that this wedding can take place, I can't walk down the aisle as it is."
"Sorry Ginny, so I guess this is where we break up?"
"Yeah, I guess." I walked out of the room feeling okay, I knew Ginny would be better off this way. Then I saw Parvati walking over to me with something.
"Hey Harry?"
"Yeah?"
"This is yours, you left it here." She said handing a cloak over to him and blushing a lot.
"Thanks." I said taking it. Then I took a good look at her. She was beautiful. She had dark tanned skin, and she also had long elegant hair that reached down to the middle of her back. She had beautiful soft brown eyes, and she didn't wear too much make up. She was one of the most gorgeous women that I have seen. Soon we started dating, and then I proposed and we got married. It was a beautiful wedding at this one place in Switzerland. It was beautiful.
End of Flashback
"Wow." Said Hermione, "I hope Ginny is okay, and Parvati has changed, she's grown up a little bit more."
"Not a little, a lot. She doesn't believe Trelawney anymore." After he said that Parvati apparated into the room, went over to Harry, embraced him, and sat down saying, "Okay Hermione, start." Hermione walked over to the chairs and then she winced in pain, her leg was hurting; she sat down on the creaky bed and winced, with tears coming out. She pulled out her wand, muttered an incantation and then she came over to them.
"Hermione, who hurt you?" Harry asked
"Promise you guys won't over react? They both nodded
"Vicktor Krum, my husband."
"WHAT??!" Harry asked rising. Parvati pulled him down saying, "Begin at the beginning."
"Okay." Hermione said, and then she began.
Flashback
Well, right after graduation, we went to Bulgaria. I took my parents to the Wizarding town of Durmsville. It was a quaint little town full of shops, houses, railroads, parks, museums. Well, anyways my parents decided to go to the Muggle area, and they dropped my off there telling me to apparate back to the Hotel room. I was walking down through the area when I heard a familiar voice.
"Hermy-own-ninny, is that you?"
"Vicktor? What a pleasant surprise!"
"How haff you been?"
"Great, you?"
"Great." I looked at him, he looked a lot better, and I felt like I really liked him. When my parents left I stayed behind. We dated for a while, and then had a huge marriage ceremony, just 5 weeks later. I thought I loved him. He would leave everyday for Quidditch Practice, and I would stay at home and wait. Then it happened. One day, he came home drunk after he lost his match; the other team even caught the snitch! But he came up to me and started to harass me. He took me and kissed me, I was kissing him back when I smelled his breath, I knew he had been drunk. I moved away and he asked me,
"Vat is tha matter Hermy-own-ninny?" He said slurring his words together.
"You are drunk!"
"Yes Hermy, I'm very drunk." ("Hermy?" Harry asked while Hermione nodded her head.)
"Why?" Well, right then and there Vicktor decided he didn't want to talk any more, so he started abusing me. He used his hands, and he hit me, HARD! I was so scared, he punched me sometimes, sometimes he has even used the Crutatius Curse! It was so scary, this happened for 10 years, finally I got out. When I came down to my bank vault, I found out Vicktor had taken everything. I went to my parent's house and I found out they were dead. It was so scary, but something else that happened was that this big owl came with the reunion invitation. I immediately set out towards this place knowing that as long as Dumbledore was here I would be safe.
End
"Oh My GOD!" Parvati said "You have never told this to anyone?"
"No, because I have been stuck on that damned house for 10 damned years." Then Harry spoke up. "Hermione, you need to press charges for abuse, he needs to go to Azkaban."
"I can't, I am so scared, so scared." She for the next hour she cried into Parvati's lap.
