Disclaimer: I do not own Harry Potter. Once again I apologize for any bad grammar or misspellings and the irregular updates. Please review to let me know where I should take the story. I also hope to make the chapters a bit longer as time goes on.

Theo stared at Hermione in shock. It was a few minutes before Hermione decided to break the silence. After glancing around the clearing in what looked to be the Forbidden Forest, she spoke," So, um… That's the big secret."
When Hermione spoke, Theo started. Quickly recovering himself he said," I always felt something was off with you. You're way too powerful to be a mudblood. I thought maybe you were adopted, or you'd done some ritual. But this… I never would have guessed this. I mean, there are so many things that don't add up. Why are you in Gryffindor and not Slytherin? How did you end up with muggles? If Dumbledore has a solid theory, then why didn't he tell you? It just doesn't make sense."
" That's what I thought. But I think Dumbledore has known for a long time. It seems as though he's had a long time to think about his theory. I've never put much stake in what he says, but surely he would tell me something like this."
" Maybe he thought you would run to the Dark Lord and ask him about it. Or you would tell Potter and Weasel."
" Or he's always known and only told Pince because it would be relevant sometime soon."
" If he's always known, then why wouldn't he tell you?"
" I need answers. I can't go to Dumbledore, but there's someone else I could ask. I need to talk to the Dark Lord."
