Hermione slowly walked down the stairs she was scared and confused. "Christi maybe you should say I'm sick" she whispered
"Hermione Jane Granger you know better"
Hermione glared at Christi, "I hate you right now"
Christi did a mock bow and ran back up the stairs and locked her self in Hermione's room.
Hermione looked at Ron nervously she didn't know what to tell him she didn't love him anymore but she couldn't say it to his face and her escape ran up the stairs. It was as if time stopped Ron walked up to Hermione about to hug her when it happened…
An ear piercing scream could be heard from Hermione's room, "Christi" Hermione took off running she saw them death eaters, "Expelliamus!"
"Is that all you can do Mudblood?"
"Lucius leave my daughter be!" yelled Snape
"AH Severus very good to see you this child is yours? Pity such beauty wasted on a traitor's daughter"
"I am no traitor Lucius I did no such thing just let my daughter go Lucius or I'll take manners into my own hands if anyone is a traitor it's your coward of a son!"
"Draco Andrew Malfoy is no traitor he's a boy he didn't know what he was doing his new task wont be as difficult"
"NOW LUCIUS"
"Very well tata for now my dear but this is to remember us" He took out a small dagger and scraped the side of her cheek and disappeared.
Christi started crying uncontrollably but not because of the scar but because of what everyone missed they attacked her because she would be her fathers bait…
"Christi? Sweetie you need to breath everything is going to be fine shh it's ok" whispered Hermione hugging her cousin she didn't know what she was going to do she understood the feelings her cousin was going through just 3 months ago she was a muggle and now she's been thrown in the middle of a Wizarding world war because of who her family and friends are.
"Just go away!"
Hermione was shocked her cousin never yelled at anyone out of anger or fear this was not her Christi, "NO! Christina I will not leave you alone I know this is hard you've been thrown into this war because of your blood but pay no attention to those jerks! You are not a mudblood you are a beautiful intelligent girl and you will show them that they made a mistake when they messed with you and if you don't I WILL!"
Severus looked at his niece and was surprised he had never seen such confidence in the know-it all book worm Gryffindor, "Girls maybe you should start training immediately I'll set up a charm so the magic isn't detected by the ministry"
"Thank you Uncle I need to talk to Ron I'll be back" she walked down the stairs and saw ron on the couch, "Ron I don't think I love you anymore but I need a break to figure it out I don't want to keep dating you just to find out 2 years down the line that I don't love you at all I'm sorry I hope this doesn't ruin our friend ship" She then hugged him and went back to her cousin picking up Standard book of spells "lets get working cuz"
"Ok what do we do first?"
"Chapter Seven Alohomora it's to unlock a door ok try"
"AOLHOMORA!" she whispered unlocking the chest, "Oh my it worked I'm really a witch!"
"Ok try this one clauses!" as Hermione said it the door slammed shut.
When Christi tried it just slightly closed with a click no slamming
"not bad cuz hmm what else might come in handy?"
"How about beauty spells?"
"Just like you to think about that let me look" she then looked in the book and saw a couple of hair spells, "Try this one Saeta Sursum"
"Saeta Sursum"
Hermione hair was put up in a pony tail, "ok I don't like pony tales without straightened hair"
"Let me see that book" she snatched the book from her cousin…. "Saeta Rectus"
Hermione giggled as she noticed her hair fell to the small of her back, "wow I should I have done that before…THANKS!"
After six hours of playing around both girls were exasted and passed out on the floor not knowing that they were being watched by a pair of icy blue eyes… Who belonged to none other then…
