A Really Long Year

by NotSoAwry

Hermione is at Hogwarts for her NEWT year. Ron is home at The Burrow, and working for George. This follows Ron and Hermione and assorted friends/family from September 1998 to June 1999. Rated M for later chapters.

I do not own Harry Potter. I have nothing to do with Scholastic, Warner Bros or Bloomsbury. I'm not JKR and I am certainly not making any profit out of this.

Dear Hermione,

Just a quick note to let you know the trial of Dolores Umbridge is scheduled for Monday next week, 25th January.

Arthur and I have tried our utmost to ensure that you don't have to come in and give evidence, but The Wizengamot is still unconvinced. I'm sending a note to Headmistress McGonagall to give her a heads up, because you may be called at quite short notice.

Regardless of that, it's thanks to you that there's such a strong case against her. Be proud of yourself!

Regards

Kingsley
