Something was about to happen to Hermione. That morning Ginny came down to tell her some news. "Hermione, Harry has said he will take your hand in marriage and we told him you said yes." Shock filled Hermione's body. She didn't love Harry, she loved Draco, but if people knew that they would disown her from the house because he was the enemy. "Excuse me please." Said Hermione.
She went straight to Dumbledore's office and walked in without knocking. She explained the matter to him and finally she pulled out her wand and pointed it to her head. "Now Hermione that isn't the answer." Said Dumbledore calmly. "I do not care what you say I long to die." Said Hermione crying.
Dumbledore took the wand from Hermione's hand and said, "there are easier ways out of this" he opened a draw and pulled out a vile with blue liquid in it. "While your in bed tonight take this, it will put you into a deep sleep for just over 24 hours, when your friends come to wake you tomorrow morning you will appear dead, your breath will be so quiet no one will notice, and your heart beat and pulse will be unnoticeable. Your body will be taken to a tomb after your funeral, there you will lie until the time you awake as if from a deep sleep. While you're in the tomb I'll write Draco a letter explaining the plan, and, when you awaken he'll be by your side so you can live together happily."
Hermione took the vile and left. That night while she was in bed she looked at the blue liquid that lay in the vile. What if this doesn't work? Will I end up marrying harry tomorrow? Thought Hermione. She pulled the top off the vile and drank the liquid. All of a sudden she could hardly breath, she suddenly collapsed on her bed.
The next morning when Hermione's friends came to wake her, she didn't move. Ginny screamed. Hermione's body was moved to a tomb just like Dumbledore said it would, and there she lay for her funeral. Goyle walked in to see Hermione lying there, he quickly ran out to find Draco and let him know about what had happened.
He jumped onto his broom and began the long journey to where Draco was hiding.
