Chapter 2
HPOV
How can any of this be true? Who is Alexi Dolohov? I need to talk to my mother, how could she have kept all this from me? She's lied to me my whole life, my father isn't really my father does he even know?
My supposed brother is a Death Eater along with my uncles!
Hermione was still processing everything when Professor Snape returned with Professors Dumbledore and McGonagall, and she still hadn't realized they were there.
"Dear heavens child what's wrong? Professor Snape only told us that we were needed to assist you!" Exclaimed Professor McGonagall.
Hermione had just realized she was no longer alone and at seeing her favorite stern professor she couldn't hold back her tears.
Professor McGonagall understanding her cub needed comfort, before she'd be able to get any information, held out her arms as Hermione walked to her.
Finally after a few minutes Hermione was able to collect herself and began to explain what caused her distress.
After hearing what happened the professors turned to Professor Snape and asked him if he was absolutely certain the results were true and not some mistake. Professor bristled over the fact that they had the audacity to ask him such a thing as if he would have called for them otherwise. "Obviously" was his only reply.
Hermione not knowing what to do asked the Headmaster if there was a way she could speak to her mother face to face. It was decided that Professors Snape and McGonagall would accompany her to her parents home that evening as it was a Friday night and classes were done for the day.
They allowed her to go prepare and she was to meet them back at the Headmasters Office where they would floo to The Leaky Cauldron and Apparate from there.
Preparing to see her mother Hermione grew nervous and had more questions than ever, not wanting to back out now she hurried through getting ready and left to the Headmaster's Office. She was only stopped once by Ron and Harry asking where she was going. She didn't want to lie to them but seeing as she was still processing, she settled for a half truth replying she had to speak to Professor McGonagall.
Once they arrived at her house she knocked but her parents weren't home yet. Finding the spare key, she told her professors they could wait inside for her parents stating they probably went to get take-out seeing as it was Friday and their busiest day at the practice.
As the minutes go by Hermione finds herself worrying more and more, her parents are never home from work this late. She voices her concerns to her professors, Professor McGonagall was the one to reply that maybe they were out somewhere. Though it was possible Hermione strongly doubted it, her parents never changed their routine. Professor Snape suggested they leave and send an owl later expressing their wishes to meet with them. As they were about to leave there was a knock on the door, Professor McGonagall motioned for her to stay with Professor Snape while she answered the door.
Opening the door Professor McGonagall was worried to see a police officer with a grim look on his face. "Is this the Granger residence?" he asked. She replied yes it was and asked what was wrong. " I'm sorry to say I'm here with some grave news and am looking for next of kin to Titania and Richard Granger," he replied. Hermione hearing everything thing let out a sob, turning to the officer she asked,what had happened, between sobs.
Realizing that this young girl, who couldn't be more than 13, must be their daughter he couldn't help but feel worse as he told her they were in a fatal car accident.
