Chapter 6
They were still looking at her weirdly but didn't say anything.
"Well up to the principle's office you go"
"What? What did I do. It's not my fault that I see the things I see..."
"You didn't do anything we are just going to have a little talk"
"What kind of talk, because I have been to principle's offices a lot and it was never good"
"Well you don't have a choice anyway so I advise you to come with me. Actually Grainger why don't you come with us so that the little miss Redlocks doesn't faint" "I am not little" But Liza's protests didn't help as Bellatrix already started walking and Hermione took her hand and pulled her with.
Dumbledore was sitting behind his desk when Bellatrix stormed inside. "What can I do for you miss Black?" A few seconds after Hermione and Liza came in there breathless. "How can somebody walk so fast?" Asked Liza. Hermione just shrugged. "I don't know... Hello headmaster"
"Hello miss Grainger, miss Jelenc"
"Well it would seem that Jelenc here has an overbearing gift that allows her to see my true self." The headmaster's eyes ever so slightly widened "Well that is surprising." He focused his soul-seeing blue eyes on Liza "I trust that you will keep this to yourself?" "Of course sir not a word is going to go past my lips. Well it will but not the thing that isn't suppose to, because you know I have to talk and stuff" "Well I would prefer if you stayed just a little bit longer. You two may go" Bellatrix huffed. Anyone could see that she didn't like being bossed around by Dumbledore.
When they walked out Hermione suddenly stopped. "Wait"
Bellatrix turned around "What is it Grainger?"
"The night I saw you and Dumbledore you told him that Sirius was dead and in your chambers you said he was alive"
"So?"
"Well is he dead or alive?"
"Alive, like I told you"
"Then why did you lit to Dumbledore?"
"Because his mind is getting more breachable every day. If I'm able to penetrate his mind undetected than so can the Death Eaters"
"Than why tell me?"
"Because you know how to protect your mind. I mean I can easily get in but I am one of the most skilled oculumnesses in the world so don't worry"
"But just a second before you said that if you can get into Dumbledore's mind anyone can" Bellatrix sighted
"Look I felt the weakness of his mind. Plus the man already has too much power."
"How do you mean?"
"Well you may not know but in hes young days Dumbledore wanted to reveal the magical society to muggles and rule them. Later he decided that it wasn't the best path for him and he became a teacher. His dark side is also the reason he refuses the position of Minister every time. Well that is a very short version of the said scandal but it will have to do for now
"Hermione's mouth was agape "So you are telling me that Dumbledore was evil when he was young?"
"No of coarse not, he was young and full of ideas that were bigger than him. You can't see the world as just black and white, you have to see all the shades of gray too" Hermione was now embarrassed. She really wanted to impress her new professor. "Yeah I'm sorry. So what do you think Liza and Dumbledore are talking about?" "Well I think that it is none of our business and that we should try to salvage the rest of my period... they better be quiet."
"Yeah I don't think that is going to be a problem"
"Why not? They are students after all."
"And you are one of the scariest people I have ever met. Scratch that you are definitely the scariest" Bellatrix looked very pleased "Good at least there will be peace in the classroom."
They came to the door of Bella's classroom and unsurprisingly there wasn't a sound coming from inside. When they walked in they saw everyone quietly working, that was a first. Usually Hermione was the only one doing actual work. All of them looked at Bellatrix in fear. Bella's personality seemed to inspire fear in people even now with her disguise. She wandered what would happen if they knew who she really was. Come to think of it nobody would sit at the tables. Hermione sat back behind her table and pulled out her books. There wasn't much left of the class but non the less she still wanted to have the most of it.
When they stepped out of the class Hermione could see everybody breathe easier. She understood why they feared Her she did too. But at the same time she was intoxicated with her. As much as she was terrifying she was beautiful.
After class Hermione met Ginny who just came from a very irritating potions class. "I think my hair is falling out" Hermione rolled her eyes "And I think you are exaggerating again" "No seriously look" She smoothed her hair. "It is so not falling out" "Fine but it will soon if I have to sit trough another class like that. He is the most irritating human being ever, well besides Malfoy. That is a whooole new level. You know I think I officially hate all men." "Ah and why do you hate men now?" "They ether smother, irritate or ignore you and frankly I have enough of it. I think I might switch to women" Hermione looked at her like she just grew another head. "Are you serious? Just yesterday you declared your love for men trough A song." "Well things change and besides I thought you would be happy someone else played for your team." Now Hermione froze "What are you talking about?" "Do you really think I haven't noticed how you look at professor Black? Look I don't care what you are into but that woman scares me." "Ginny she scares everybody. And I am not into her." Now it was Ginny's turn to roll her eyes. "Yeah and I'm a troll. I see the way you look the way you look at her..." "Ginny will you please shut up" "No Hermione we will talk about this, you are not getting out of this" "No Ginny she is coming this way" Ginny looked behind her and there she was in all her glory "Hello girls. Grainger, would you be so kind to come with me. Now." With that she started walking away in her normal fast manner. Hermione didn't even have time to react as she hurried after her insanely attractive professor. "What is it with everybody and hurrying off somewhere?" Hermione asked herself as she ran after the professor jet again.
A/N: I hope you like the new chapter. And I am insanely sorry for the delay. But I lost my muse and my exams are crazy right now so you might have to wait a while again.
On the next manner. Did you like it, hate it, despise it? I want to hear it all. Also I want to know who should I pair Ginny with?
