Madam Pomfrey raced to Dumbledore office to inform him of what happened. She said the password and entered the moving staircase that led up to his office. When she entered she saw that he was with Hagrid.
"Poppy, what's wrong?" Dumbledore asked when he saw the strange look on her face.
"Hermione doesn't remember being married to Remus or anything," Madam Pomfrey reported.
Dumbledore and Hagrid stared at her.
"What!" Hagrid said.
"She doesn't remember anything," Madam Pomfrey said, her voice insistent. "What should we do?"
"I need to inform the Gryffindors and Remus of this at once," Dumbledore said. "Thanks, Poppy."
The Matron left.
That night, at dinner, Dumbledore stood up and the hall fell silent. The air that he gave told them that he was worried about something. He took a deep breath and then spoke.
"Mrs. Lupin has finally awoken, but she has hardly any memory of her life. Please understand that this will be a difficult time for her and that she'll need all the help from her fellow Gryffindors and the school to help her through this. Thank you."
He sat down.
The Gryffindor table soon muttered to themselves and Dumbledore knew they weren't taking this well. He hoped that they would help her. Later that night, he went to visit Remus in his office. Remus didn't take the loss of his wife's memory well.
"Can you get it back?" he asked.
"I hope so," Dumbledore said. "But it might take some time."
Remus sighed.

Hermione return to class the next morning and as soon as she arrived she noticed that several Gryffindors were whispering to each other. Hermione glared at them, but didn't say anything. She sat down and Professor McGonagall walked in.
"Miss Granger, I'm glad to see that you've return to us," she told Hermione; using her maiden name so that she wouldn't confuse her.
"Thanks, Professor McGonagall," Hermione answered.
She smiled at her and then started the lesson.
"Miss Granger, I need to speak to you," McGonagall said when the lesson had ended.
Hermione gathered her things and walked up to her.
"Headmaster Dumbledore thinks that you need to spend a week at home," McGonagall told her. "Your family's fireplace has been connected to the Floo Network and will only work one way. Your parents know a great deal of your marriage to Remus and they'll be able to help you out."
"Thanks," Hermione said slowly.
She then handed her a note.
"You're to leave at once," she instructed. "You've been excused from the rest of your classes until this time next week."
Hermione nodded and took the note. She then headed for the fireplace and took some Floo Powder out.
"Hermione Granger's family's living room," she said.
And she was gone.

Severus woke up in the hospital wing and wasn't even sure how he had gotten there. He moaned in pain and then all of his memories returned. He cursed at himself for not paying attention to the tail of the Horntail. He laid back down and that alerted the Matron that he was awake.
"Nice to see you up and almost about," she told him.
He glared at her.
"Now I'm going to check you over and then you can return to work," she told him. "But I don't want you to be doing a lot of work. You need to rest and relax."
He grumbled.
"What was that?" she snapped.
"Nothing," Severus lied.
"Good, now take this and let me check you over."
Ten minutes later Severus hurried from the wing, a tutting Matron muttering about evil, mad, wizards.

When Hermione appeared in her living room she saw that her parents were expecting her. Jane gave her a hug and her father followed suit. She hugged them in return and smiled at them.
"We were so worried when we got that letter from the Headmaster," Jane told her daughter. "How are you feeling?"
"Well," Hermione said. "Dumbledore said that you can tell me a lot about my marriage to Remus and all that."
Her mother smiled at her.
"Of course, but let me get that bag off of you and then we'll have a nice lunch."
Hermione smiled and allowed her mother to take her bag.

"So where's Hermione at?" Harry asked.
"She went to visit her parents for the week," Ginny told him.
Harry looked at her.
"And how do you know that?" he asked.
"Because McGonagall told me," Ginny snapped. "Now if you don't mind I've got to get ready for your class."
And she left.
