The Heir of Godric Gryffindor
Summary: What if someone other than Harry was the Heir of Gryffindor? What if it was Hermione?
Notes: I have decided that the idea of Harry being the Heir of Godric Gryffindor has been milked for all it's worth and it's time for someone else to be in the spotlight for that! I have finally finished the first chapter after took it off because it wasn't really a chapter so here goes and I hope you like!
Prologue
"It appears that Miss Granger is indeed the Heir of Gryffindor." Dumbledore said with great finality.
Hermione sat motionless in her chair in front of Dumbledore's desk; Harry leaned over and squeezed her hand hoping to give her some comfort.
"But Professor, how come I can use Godric's sword?" Harry asked curious.
"To be honest with you Mr. Potter I do not know why you were able to use his sword." Dumbledore said, it seemed as if the twinkle in his eye got bigger, as if he had suddenly realized something by gazing at Hermione and Harry's intertwined hands.
Harry noticed his gaze and blushed slightly.
"How could I be the Heir of Gryffindor? I'm a muggle-born and as far as I can tell no one in my family has ever been magical." Hermione said her mind trying to grasp what Professor Dumbledore had said.
"Godric Gryffindor married a muggle-born and had quite a long family, his first-born however was a squib who was named Nicholas, he left the wizarding world when he was 24 and never came back, and he also changed his last name to Granger and married a muggle by the name of Katherine Rowlands, and they, I believe are you're many great-grandparents. You are the direct descendent of Godric Gryffindor and therefore are the heir too ΒΌ of the school, which guarantees you a seat on the Wizengamot and decisions in the future of the school." Dumbledore said eyes still twinkling annoyingly.
Harry looked over at Hermione surprised; she was gaping at the Professor.
"I think it time you two head to bed, I will show you to Godric Gryffindor's old apartment's, Harry you may stay with her, there will be another bed there for you to sleep on, the rooms will have been cleaned by now and there should be some food for you too eat before bed, you're belongings have also been moved form the Gryffindor Dormitory. Since it is summer vacation no one will be able to bother you so you have free reign of the castle, but do not go into the Forest and do not stay on the grounds after sunset. Now if you'll follow me I will show you too the rooms." Dumbledore said smiling at the looks on the two Gryffindor's faces.
They nodded numbly and followed him out of his office to a portrait, down the hall, of a roaring lion on a field of green grass.
"The password is 'Return'."
The portrait swung open and after saying goodnight the two Gryffindor's walked in to the apartments of Godric Gryffindor himself.
That's all for now! Please review!
