A/N: I'm getting bored so I'm gunna try making my chapters longer. PLEASE REVIEW!


"Augustus, Roberta," Emily Granger started, "I've just told her. We'll bring her around tomorrow and you will have your custody of her returned."

"Thank you for keeping her safe for all these years!" said Augustus. "How can we ever repay you?"

"Don't worry about it. Anything to help out an old friend," Daniel answered. "Well, we must be off. It's best to go check on Hermione."

"We'll see you tomorrow!"

"Bye! Oh, and give our love to Antoine."


Hermione packed all of her belongings into her school trunk. She didn't just stop at her school supplies and uniforms, though. She swept through her room and took everything, shrinking it so it would all fit into her trunk. She then shrunk her trunk and put that and her still life-size Crookshanks into her gorgeous dark pink oversized Herve Chapelier tote bag that her stylish fellow Gryffindors Lavender and Parvati bought her for her sweet sixteen. (A/N: Sorry but even though they're a little outdated, I LOVE LOVE LOVE the Herve! Look it up if you don't know what they look like! OK now back to the story!) And speaking of fellow Gryffindors:

Flashback:

Hermione had just heard the horrendous news about her biological parents being some of the most violent, infamous death eaters, let alone among those who attempted to murder her and her 5 friends in their 5th year. She had to go back to the Burrow and talk to Harry and Ron. They would be able to help!

When she finally arrived at the Burrow, she was in tears. "Harry! Ron!" she cried. "Please help me!" They rushed in looking alarmed. "I've just found out I was adopted. I'm a real pureblood. I'm a- a- a ROOKWOOD!"

Whatever they were expecting, it was far from this. Ron turned a nasty shade of pale red and Harry clenched his fists and gritted his teeth in anger. Finally Harry spoke, though in barely more than a whisper, "How could you, Hermione?" He looked sullen and let down, but most of all, disappointed in her. IT'S NOT MY FAULT! Thought Hermione. Ron, finally getting over the shock said, "Get out of my house, you death eater. You're mucking up our pure floors." Hermione stood frozen to the spot. "GET OUT!" Harry bellowed.

End of flashback

She took one last look around her now empty room, except for the bed and furniture, and apparated to Rookwood Manor, just as her parents flooed home.


Emily and Daniel returned home to an empty house. "Hermione!" They called in a panic. Emily wandered into her bedroom to find everything gone and a short note on her empty vanity.

Dear Emily and Daniel Granger,

As you obviously believe I am more suited to live with the family of the man who tried to kill me two years ago, that is where I have gone. I'm with my real family now, since I was obviously such a burden on you life that you were only too eager to inform me this evening that I am not your child.

Sincerely,

Hermione Rookwood

Daniel took his wife into his arms as they sat down on Hermione's old bed and cried.
