"You've changed so much for her... but still... she's gone, you can't change that... but, why is it, that you never gave me a second glance, when after all, I was ALWAYS there for you? I changed so much for you. And now, I'll change again, because of you." her eyes became a crimson red as she charged forward, everything in her past and present burning at her touch, she hurtled at him, but he dodged her easily, knowing that she was weak and disorientated when she was angry.

"I can't change the fact that she's gone, but I can change the fact that you are still here!" he snarled and charged forward as well, just as a powerful bolt of thunder came crashing down beside the two.

People to Know, Things to See

Christmas was approaching quickly, and with so much going on in Hermione's life, she had no time to think of her picture in the magazine, though it nagged at the back of her mind like a stubborn fly after sweet fruit. Hermione seemed more and more occupied lately, but for a strange reason, it was not all homework, but the fact that her spending more time with the Weasley Twins would get her mind off of many unpleasant thoughts, such as Ron and Harry.

So far, Malfoy encounters had been extremely rare, with no nasty or rude comments thrown her way. Hermione still received many angry or hateful glares, to keep herself from returning their glares she would find herself constantly telling herself that it was their problem, not hers, if whether or not they accepted her.

Hermione was walking from her Defense Against the Dark Arts class towards dinner, when the same magazine that had been gnawing on her mind for almost three weeks caught her eye. There, being held by a Hufflepuff fourth year, was the "Quibbler". Hermione stared at it for a moment longer, before she realized that that same fourth year was giving her a hateful glare, she was taken aback by the girl's cold gaze, she restrained herself from glaring or making a comment and walked right on ahead, heading towards the Gryffindor common room to drop off her books.

When Hermione entered the Great Hall, she was greeted by the same hateful, cold glare that she had received not so long ago. "Why do they seem so much colder?" Hermione thought to herself, she knew that these looks came to her daily, but today they seemed... more powerful, as if every pair of eyes in that room was trying to erase her very existence.

Hermione turned her head from the uncomfortable glares and rushed to the Gryffindor table, desperately searching for Fred, George or Aura. She skimmed the table once, then again, she was about to give up her hasty search when she noticed the two bright red heads at the very end of the table. She almost ran over to them, a heavy sigh of relief escaping her lips as she took a seat on George's side.

"'ello Hermione!" Fred said through a mouthful of some strange orange pudding. She stared at him for a second, then shrugged and began to pick random foods from the plates in front of her. She picked at her food, rather that eat it, staring intensely at it as she worked her mind for an answer as to why every student in Hogwarts castle seemed to hate her. She jumped slightly as something poked her hard in the ribs. She looked around for a second and noticed Aura standing at the edge of the table, looking pale and exhausted.

"We're meeting up later by the lake, alright?" She seemed rushed as she spoke, but waited patiently for Hermione to answer. Hermione nodded and watched as she darted around the tables and out the enormous wooden doors and out of sight. Hermione waited patiently for George and Fred to finish, unwilling to leave the Great Hall alone.

It was almost sundown by the time George, Hermione and Fred arrived at the side of the lake, they were all talking calmly, which seemed odd, seeing as these were the Weasley twins. For some reason, Hermione found herself very found of being around them, as if their presence was everything that would make her comfortable, or happy. She mused over this for a few minutes until a certain Ravenclaw came running up to them. Aura was silent for a second while she regained her breath, but when she was finally able to compose herself, Hermione got the feeling that whatever they were here for, it could not be good.

The look in seventh year's eyes was focused, exhausted and sympathetic, all at the same moment, her pale complexion made her light brown eyes and hair stand out more, and her upright pose gave her an air of seriousness.

"Sorry I'm late," Aura said quickly, "but I had to snag this from a first year who just wouldn't give it up!" Aura held out a rolled up issue of "The Quibbler".

George stared at the magazine for a second, and then shrugged his shoulders, "What about it? I'm sure there isn't another article about us in there... is there?" George and Fred gazed at Aura in a half expectant manner before their answer came.

"Actually this has nothing to do with you, Hermione, come here, there's something I want to show you," Aura looked at Hermione in such a sympathetic manner that it almost made Hermione want to turn around and walk away, rather than see what it was that this Ravenclaw wanted to show her. Hermione approached slowly as Aura flipped through the pages of "The Quibbler", preparing herself for the worst. Finally, Aura stopped flipping through the pages, just as Hermione was close enough to see. She glanced cautiously at the page, as though if she moved too quickly, it would jump out of Aura's hand and attack Hermione. What she saw was what she last expected to see.

There, in bright bold letters was the title of an article, and underneath the header, a black and white Hermione smiled at her original. ""GRANGER TELLS MORE" By Rita Skeeter"

Hermione snatched the magazine out of Aura's hands and read the article quickly. Her fury rose as she read on. According to Rita Skeeter, Hermione Granger had had an interview with her and told her horrible things about many of her classmates, including Fred, George, and Aura. When Hermione finally finished reading, she was breathing deeply and her face was beginning to turn into a crimson shade.

"That isn't all she says you've been saying. According to Skeeter, you've said some completely horrible things about Harry and Ron, mainly about Harry, the first article was about one single thing you said, and it was what started an entire chain of different articles on you, this is the most recent one... but what I can't understand is... did you really say all of this... and what it says you said on the last 15 articles?" Aura looked at her in a strange way, a look that meant she wanted it to not have been Hermione who was answering all of Skeeter's questions. Up until this point, Hermione had been utterly quiet, and calm with all the happenings, but something inside of her exploded as the information settled in her mind.

"FIFTEEN ARTICLES?! That's preposterous! That... that... that witch! How DARE she write all these horrible comments of my classmates and CLAIM it was me!" Hermione ran out of words that second, unable to express her anger in words any longer. She twirled around to find the Weasley twins finish reading the interview, they looked angry, but their anger was obviously not directed toward her as she saw them throw it to the floor, step and crush it with their feet and look up at Aura.

"Why didn't you ever tell us about this? Hermione would never go so low as to speak behind our backs!" Fred said in a calm but almost dangerous tone. Hermione's anger disappeared for a slight second as she watched both of the Weasley twins' anger fire up for the first time in forever. But her anger instantly returned when a series of curious questions popped into her mind.

"What was the first thing I "said" about Harry? When was this first printed? Why didn't anyone tell me? Why didn't you tell me? especially when you saw it in the issue with Fred and George's shop interview?" She spoke them all aloud, not stopping to take a breath until her last question was spoken.

"Honestly? Well, the first thing Skeeter claims is that you said that, last year, when no one believed you-know-who was back, you didn't believe him either, this was accompanied by a series of name calling from your side. I'm not sure when the first article was printed, and I didn't tell you because I though maybe you would tell us, but today when I saw that you had said something about us, I decided to find out the truth." Aura took a breath, about to continue her explination, when a slight squeak replaced her voice. Hermione, Fred and George stared at Aura strangely, as she continued to make a few more squeaks, her final sound came out as a incoherent word, at that moment, she fell to the floor, twitching slightly. George, Hermione and Fred continued to stare, completely bewildered.

"Run..." Aura said in a low whisper, "NOW!" at that precise moment, her eyes shut tightly as she began to glow an eerie orange color. Slowly, but noticeably, two long, sharp fangs grew in her mouth, as she struggled to keep them hidden. Small, demon like horns grew from the top of her head, as she began to sprout long, thick hairs all over her body, slowly, but surely, Aura the RAvenclaw, was becoming a werewolf.

"Run..." Aura whispered once more, before her vision clouded and reddened.

Thanks for reading, and be on the lookout for updates on "Deliverance"
