A/N: Hey my wonderful readers! This chapter is going to give you some back-story and it's kind of boring. I apologize for that. BTW Hermione's dad died in a car crash. It's not very important to the story so, yea. Keep reading! Sorry that these are kind of short! I'm going to make a point of updating at least twice a day so never fear! The next chapter (which I'll type up tonight will be much more interesting!) is way better! This is just filling you in on all the little details dancing about in my head!

Disclaimer: If I actually owned this, why I would buy myself much, much more expensive marshmallows (which I haven't needed to use yet!)

Ch 2. The Princes

"A pureblood", Dumbledore said kindly.

"A WHAT?" Hermione said, her voice rising dangerously. "I've lived with you mum for 16 years, SIXTEEN YEARS, and you've have yet to even consider telling me that I'm a PUREBLOOD! I mean come on; I've dealt with being called a mudblood for god knows how many years. I can't believe it. I bet now your going to tell me my name isn't Hermione and its something ridiculous like Gretchen Zambini and I'm engaged to Draco Malfoy or something." , Hermione let out a huge breath and glared angrily at her mother.

"Hermione, I'm sorry! We couldn't tell you until you were sixteen. Your parents wished that you would have a happy life with a childhood full of laughter and joy. It was your mother's dying wish that you would be put into foster care and given a real life. Please don't hate me honey, I can't bare to lose you too." Janice said with tears threating to fall.

"Mum! I don't hate you, I just can't believe it. I mean I'm a pureblood now! Does my family really look like this? Bushy hair and all? Or do I have an illusion charm. Who is my family anyways? I'm not engaged to Malfoy am I? OH god mum! Am I?", Hermione rattled off while staring wildly at her foster mom.

"NO YOU ARE NOT ENGAGED TO MALFOY! Ok, breathe honey. Your name is Regina Prince. Your Father is Leon Prince and your mother is Venus Prince. Now you see, your related to the Zambini's because of your mother. Her twin sister is Blaise Zambini's mother. So I guess it means you're cousins." Janice smiled weakly at Hermione.

"So I'm defiantly not engaged to Malfoy?" Regina (as we must now call her) said relived

"DEFINATLY NOT! Do you want me to tell you about why you're here with me and what happened with you parents?" Janice said quite irked at the fact Regina kept hanging on to the subject of the mysterious Mr. Malfoy.

"Yes mum.. umm.. errr, what should I call you?"

"Mum is quite fine with me honey, now where was I? Ok, your parents. They were big Voldemort supporters. Your biological mum and dad were a year below Harry's parents. From what I've heard they realized what Voldemort was trying to achieve and ran. Your mum had just given birth to you and knew it was a matter of time before they were caught and killed. She left you on the doorstep of a very dear friend (me) to take care of you. Of course Dumbledore soon appeared and cast various spells on you to ensure your identity was concealed until you were old enough to protect yourself. So if your ready were going to go to Hogwarts and get those charms removed, get your key to the Prince Vault, and maybe go shopping before stopping off at the Burrow. Mrs. Weasley has offered to take you in and well if anything happens owl Blaise and he'll come pick you up and you can stay there with your Aunt and cousins. I'm so sorry honey; I wish that dentists' convention wasn't happening. I'll make it up to you.", Herm.. I mean Regina." Said Janice with a small smile at her foster daughter.

"Oh mum! I still love you! Regina Prince, hmm… who has that last name. It sounds so familiar. Well never mind I guess. Shall we go to Hogwarts and see what's the hype about these mysterious charms?" Regina grabbed some Floo powder and threw it into the fire. "THE THREE BROOMSTICKS" and was whooshed away. Janice sighed and grabbed some Floo powder herself. "the three broomsticks" and stepped into the fire. After she was gone the greenish tint in the flames slowly disappeared and left behind was a confused Crookshakes who meowed to empty house for his breakfast.

A/N: Well there you go. About 2-3 more chapters will be devoted to summer then it's off to Hogwarts! And the deal with Regina's (I keep typing Hermione lol) family is this. … Snape's mom's last name is Prince. Her younger brother marries Blaise Zambini's mother's twin Venus Zambini. Ok got it? Probably not. Have fun anyways! Makeovers, shopping and just a hint of betrayal is ahead!
