Last Chapter:
Hermione's head felt light. The girl lifted a few fingers to her head to find it bleeding once more. Back to the Hospital Wing she thought, trying to push the image of the man's eyes to the back of her mind.
Only when Hermione was stumbling out of the room did she realize that she was crying.
The injury on her head was an easy one to heal for the medi-witch. The witch immediatly called down the Headmaster, this had to be something big, by the look on his face.
Dumbledore was someone Hermione had the utmost respect for and knew what he would tell her would be the truth.
Grave concern was written all over his expression, it was a rare occasion anyone would catch him like this. If anything scared her, the look on his face had too.
"Professor?"
Hermione asked, looking concerned. The cut on her forehead was healed and Hermione for one felt fine, something inside her didn't feel right. It was that feeling at the pit of her stomache that something terrible was about to happen.
And maybe it would.
"Hermione, Hogwarts is not safe for you anymore. If you wish, you may leave but for the wizarding world's sake, I beg you to stay. I cannot keep you here and I do understand if you wish to leave."
Something was seriously wrong.
But no, it was unlike Hermione Anne Granger to give up. Her Gryffindor bravery and pride would not allow it. She knew she was stronger then this and would get through this ordeal just like everything else she had gone through.
Harry and Ron would be at her sides. They had all the same classes except for one, those two would do anything for her and it didin't surprise her to hear their feet clattering down the hallway towards the hospital wing entrance.
The two came through, there faces flushed from running.Apparently they had run all the way from Gryffindor tower to here, by the heaving of their lungs and the flushed colour of their faces you could tell.
"Ah, I'm glad you are here"
Dumbledore spoke, the twinkle in his eye lost. They were dull and concerned. Something was deeply troubling him as her sat in the chair next to Hermione, the two boys sitting on the end of the white hospital bed, looking at Hermione in a concerned fashion.
You could tell they were both going to speak and as they opened their mouth to move their lips and emit some sort of sound or word, Dumbledore silenced them with a hand.
"Hermione has been attacked yet again, but she is fine"
Hermione nodded at this, trying to smile and tell them it would be okay.
"I thought it best to call you two down here. I have some news of great importance, concerning you all and someone else whom we do not know the name of yet"
All three students looked to their headmast in confusion. How could he not know who this fourth person was? If it was something concerning a student, surely he would know, right?
The girls brow furrowed and she folded her arms across her chest, resting below her breats, which had developed fully over the summer.
"How could you not know who this is Headmaster?"
The old man sighed gently, rubbing his chin between his fingers as if in deep thought.
"There was more to the prophecy that was made about Mr. Potter some years ago. We do know some of it, but i find it best not to tell you the wordings of it now.
I can tell you that it concerns all of you and the fourth individual. It is of great importance and as we can see whomever is trying to stop this has seen Hermione as the most vulnerable out of you three so far. You all need to watch out for eachother even more then before.
We do not know who is behind this or what exactly they are capable of. Though we do know it must be someone from the Dark Side, considering it was Lucius Malfoy who had tried to strangle Hermione supposivly.
Now I will leave you to gather your thoughts then I would like you to go back to Gryffindor Tower. No stopping between here and there. Goodday"
As soon as the old man began speaking he seemed to stop and leave. How could he leave them so clueless like this?
A look was exchanged between the trio before they stood and left together for the tower.
Thankyou to all my reviewers. I do appreciate it so much, you are what keeps me motivated to going. The more reviews I get the longer the chapters will be! I hope this one was longer! I am in the process of writing two more stories in my notebook, they will be considerably longer in chapters I hope! Have a super day.
