Chapter 7

Hermione opened her eyes, to find that the room was extremely dark. She couldn't see a thing. As her eyes were trying to adjust to the darkness, she was trying to remember what had happened. She remembered talking to Draco and then walking to McGonagall's office, she never entered. It all just went… black.

Now that her eyes were adjusting she could see that she was in a small room, it had a bed in the corner which she was currently lying on. It also had a table and chair and the other side of the room, there was a little window.

She got up to investigate. She reached the window and all she could see was a dark forest, it didn't look like the Forbidden Forest. It was then that she realised that she had left Hogwarts.

"I see you're awake"

Draco was pacing Dumbledore's office, as was Ron and Harry. They had just told him everything. He had told them to stay put until he returned. That was over an hour ago.

"I can't just wait here and see what he has to say. We have to find Hermione, I have to find Hermione." Draco said as he finally sunk into a chair, he put his head into his hands. How could this happen to Hermione, to him? Everything was perfect, too perfect. He knew something would happen eventually.

They waited a further ten minutes until Dumbledore came back. Dumbledore walked onto his office with a grave look on his face.

"It seems that Miss Granger has indeed been taken of the Hogwarts ground" Harry collapsed into a nearby chair and Ron just stood stock still.

"How can that of happened, aren't there charms preventing that sort of thing?" Draco asked as he gained his voice again.

Dumbledore looked into Draco's eyes. He could see the pain, the hurt and most of all the desperation. He knew that they had developed a relationship; he didn't know how much they were in love, until now.

"There are, but it seems that whoever took her knew of the charms and found a way to overcome them. I am so sorry, I would never have thought that that were possible. I have got people searching for her as we speak, but I need to ask you a few questions about Hermione"

All three nodded, they would do anything to get her back. "Ok, first of all. Do you know if she has had a fight with anyone in the past few weeks? Someone, who would want revenge"

All three boys thought, but couldn't come up with anything. Hermione hadn't done anything to hurt anyone. She was too kind hearted for that. Draco looked up at Dumbledore.

"I can't think of anyone, she doesn't pick fights. She stays out of the way. She wouldn't harm anyone deliberately. I can't think of anyone who would want to hurt her"

Just then it hit him like a ton of bricks. It was something Lucius had written to him earlier in the year when he had learned that Draco had no intention of becoming a death eater.

Dear Draco

I was disappointed to say the least when you said you didn't want to serve the dark lord. For that you will pay. You should have been honoured that he wanted to include you in his circle. You have refused him, and that is something he will not tolerate.

You WILL get the mark, or believe me you will suffer. There are worse fates than death.

Lucius

He didn't think anything of it at the time. He was used to threats from his father. But his father was in Azkaban now, wasn't he?

Dumbledore seemed to be able to read his mind. "You're father is in Azkaban, that is where I went earlier to check. He couldn't have taken her"

"What about the other death eaters? They could have taken her" Dumbledore nodded in agreement. It was true any of them could have gotten her, but not without the knowledge that Hermione was close to Draco.

"Do you have any idea where they would take her?" Draco looked at him as if he had just sprouted wings.

"How would I know? I am not a death eater. That's why we are in this situation"

"I believe he was talking to me" Snape walked past Ron and Harry and sat down in the chair next to Draco.

"He has taken her. I couldn't find out where he has taken her though. He is planning on using her to get Draco to join the dark side. They apparently know his powers."

Draco looked up suddenly "What powers?"

Dumbledore sighed. "It is time that I explain to you, something I should have told you when I noticed the change in your personality"

Draco remained silent. So they noticed his personality change huh? Not like he cared, all he cared about was Hermione, and that she was safe in his arms again as soon as possible.

"When you were born, a healer did the standard tests to see if you were a wizard or a squib. It is custom for every newborn to go through these tests however when she did the tests on you, she found some… rather interesting information. She told you mother. Your mother feared for you, she knew that Lucius would use you and your powers to help Voldermort. She didn't want that to happen, so she with held the information."

"If she withheld the information, how is it that you know?" Draco asked looking at Dumbledore.

Dumbledore chuckled "You have it in your file. We have to check every student that comes into this school"

"The information that the healer found was that you had a very rare type of magic in you. One so rare, that the last person who was reported to have it, died around four hundred years ago. It is so rare, that it hasn't been given a name. It is just known as The Power."

Draco looked on in shock; he had a rare branch of magic in his blood? "What do you mean powers? What powers do I have?"

Dumbledore sighed "You have the power to read peoples minds, without having to learn Legimacy. It also means you can block thoughts or people reading your thoughts without having to learn Occlumency. You also have the power to locate anyone you are attached too, anyone who has your blood resigning in them, or someone who has something of yours."

"So I can read peoples minds, and find someone if I want to? But only if they have my blood?"

Dumbledore nodded "Then why would they use me for the dark side?"

Again Dumbledore sighed "There is another power that you have, the most powerful of all. You can make this move with your mind; you can also freeze things in motion and blow them up. That is why they want you. That is the reason I believe they have taken Hermione. It means that anyone who crosses your path, you can read there thoughts. You can freeze them, so that they can not sun away and you can blow them all up, with one flick of your hand."

Draco was shocked, how had he not known? Surely by now, he would have noticed that something like that resides in him. Wouldn't he?

If only he knew he could do that, maybe he could have saved Hermione somehow. He looked up into Dumbledore's eyes, he looked troubled Draco knew he was hiding something and he wanted to know. Just as that thought popped into his head, so did another one 'I know that you will have read my mind as soon as you could, I could not say this in front of anyone but you. So I am telling you with my mind. Hermione is in grave danger I believe that they will do anything to get your power. Your father is in Azkaban, but only for now. I am sure that they will find out a way to get him out. I need you to think, does Hermione have anything of yours with her? Even it is only a quill; it will help you to find her'

Draco shook his head "no."

"No what?" Ron asked as he eyed Draco suspiciously

Draco looked at him and read his mind "No, I was not aware of this before Weasley. I love Hermione with all my heart, I would have done anything to have stopped her from being taken" He then looked at Dumbledore purposely "and I will do anything to get her back"

"Who are you?" Hermione asked as she sat up on the bed.

There was a soft chuckle "Someone who you shouldn't have trusted, someone who knew what that little boyfriend of yours could do, someone who knew that he would do anything to find you. Someone who knew that he would do anything for you"

She heard a pop and then someone whisper. She heard another pop and the attention was back to her.

"It seems that your boyfriend and friends are aware of your disappearance. They are not smart enough to find you, yet. Not until I send that boyfriend of yours a clue"

Hermione sat still, listening. She knew that voice, but where from. It reminded her of someone she loves; someone she never thought could betray her. Just as she realised who it was, they walked out from under the cover of the shadows.

Hermione whimpered and collapsed against the wall. "D...Dad?"
