DISCLAIMER: I own nothing of Harry Potter.

Agh! I am having so many problems at the moment and my stupid internet keeps playing up and then I found out that they have blocked fanfiction from my local library :O who would do that? Seriously! Haha okay I'm at my friends atm so I'm updating whilst I can. :) I'm not sure when I'll be updating next until my internets fixed. Sorry :/

"As you will be taking your N.E.W.T.S this year, I thought it would be a good idea to learn the Patronus charm." Professor Lupin said with his back to the class, he was writing on the board but I glanced at Harry and exchanged a smile.

We had already learnt how to do the Patronus charm before the war but I was excited to see what every one else's would be. Even though most of the class had been in D.A fifth year, there was an excited murmur from everyone present.

"Now can anyone tell me what a Patronus charm is?" he glanced around the room and I raised my arm. He smiled and nodded in my direction "yes Miss Granger?"

"A Patronus charm can be used as a shield against Dementers".

"Very good Miss Granger ten points to Gryffindor, now can anyone tell me how to cast the Patronus Charm?" he smiled when Harry's hand went up first "yes Mr Potter?"

Harry smiled "to cast the Patronus charm you must think of a very happy memory, a very powerful memory and say Expecto Patronum".

"Another ten points to Gryffindor, thank you Mr Potter and yes I want you all to stand from your seats" as soon as everyone was stood with their wands out Professor Lupin waved his wand and all the tables and chairs disappeared. He stood in front of us all with a large smile "now think of a happy memory, an extremely powerful happy memory".

He waited ten minutes as everyone closed their eyes and scrunched their faces up in concentration "now with that memory I want you all to point your wands out and say Expecto Patronum".

I opened my eyes and smiled as I heard Harry say "Expecto Patronum", I grinned as his Stag flew from his wand and stood tall next to him. Harry looked very proud of himself making me laugh at him. There were a few other cries of Expecto Patronums. Some students didn't have anything happen and they looked extremely put out but Professor Lupin walked around offering his help. Others had silvery wisps fly from their wands before it disappeared they looked confused but slightly more cheerful then rest. The final students, the ones who were in the DA stood tall and proud as their silvery creatures flew, walked and trotted around the room.

I saw Ron's Jack Russell terrier behind us and sighed, closing my eyes I thought of the memory with my parents over the summer. It was after Harry had arrived and we were all sat around talking and laughing. It was a simple memory but it was one of the happiest and most content ones I had. I slowly opened my eyes and said "Expecto Patronum".

I gasped in surprise when it wasn't a small otter that came out of my wand but in fact a large cat. It cocked its head to the side as it stared at me and I did the same, staring at it curiously.

I felt Harry come up to me and wasn't surprised when he whispered in my ear "I thought your Patronus was an Otter?"

I peeled my gaze away from the silvery tiger to stare at Harry wide eyed "it was". He looked confused for a moment before he glanced at Professor Lupin who was once again in front of the class.

"Professor?" I groaned and elbowed Harry as he pulled the Professor's attention our way "can a Patronus change form?"

Professor Lupin looked shocked for a moment before he nodded slowly in thought "yes, if the caster has been through something immensely painful. A Patronus can change so that it can better protect the caster." He stared at Harry curiously for a moment before looking at Harry's Patronus, the Stag was now at Harry's side and was watching my Patronus curiously.

Harry glanced at me before pointing at my Patronus "well, Hermione's Patronus sure seemed to have grown in size wouldn't you say?"

Professor Lupin glanced towards my tiger Patronus that was now lying down and cleaning it's paw looking bored. His eyes widened as he looked at it before looking at me "yes, it would seem Miss Granger's Patronus has changed because of the war and what happened to her, it may be the cause".

He came closer to inspect the tiger who growled before standing up with a huff. Yes, the tiger actually seemed to huff in irritation making us all stare wide eyed before Harry burst out laughing.

"I'm sorry 'Mione but that cat is definitely yours".

I stared at Harry offended "I do not huff!" I said before I huffed myself and turned away from him.

"Sure you don't but don't worry it's not a bad thing, anyway I like your new Patronus it's beautiful". He sounded slightly in awe as he watched the Tiger stare at Professor Lupin as he circled the creature.

"It is spectacular Hermione" Remus seemed to be that deep in thought that he let slip the Miss Granger during class and called me by my first name. I stared at the Tiger whilst thinking on their comments. It's silvery eyes stared back at my chocolate ones, it's head tilted to the side as though it was deep in thought. It truly was a beautiful creature, it was smaller then any Tiger I had seen at the Zoo but it was still larger then a panther.

I smiled at it and it nodded shocking me "She is beautiful" I laughed as the tiger nuzzled into Professor Lupin's hand as he reached out towards it "and I think she likes you Professor".

He smiled, nodded and said "I shall research more on the topic but for now I must go help the other students". He wandered off leaving me stood staring at my Patronus.

I couldn't help but feel sad as I watched the large cat interact with Harry's Stag. I missed my Otter, too many things were changing. I shook my head before flicking my wand silently and watched as my new Patronus faded away. I stayed standing and watching everyone else talk to their friends and laugh until Professor Lupin dismissed the class.

I smiled as Harry waited by the door for me "thank Godric it's dinner 'Mione because I am seriously hungry . . . I could eat a horse".

I giggled and shook my head "don't let the centaurs hear you say that Harry".

His eyes widened in shock before he shrugged sheepishly "didn't think about that".

"You're just lucky that they're none in the castle, they might have dragged you off like they did to that pink toad in fifth year".

We shared a laugh as we continued walking into the Great Hall, we made our way to sit next to Ginny, Neville and Luna at the Gryffindor table. I sat between Ginny and Luna as Harry sat opposite us with Neville. Everything seemed to go perfect until the Owls arrived bringing along the Daily Prophet and more bad news.

I licked my lips and hesitantly reached for mine as Ginny and Luna leant closer to read it.

DEATH EATERS ESCAPE FROM ASKABAN!

SPLIT OF THE GOLDEN TRIO, WHO'S AT FAULT?

Rita Skeeter reports …

Even though He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named was killed last year by none other then our Golden boy Harry Potter the world is still not safe. Captured Death Eaters listed below have escaped from Askaban.

Bellatrix Lestrange,

Rodolphus Lestrange,

Rabastan Lestrange,

Fenrir Greyback,

Peter Pettigrew,

Antonin Dolohov,

Thorfinn Rowle,

Walden Macnair.,

Amycus Carrow,

Scabior.

Is anywhere safe anymore?

Will these new escapees plan another attack?

Is there a new Dark Wizard.

There are so many questions and not enough answers. Will the Golden Trio save us once again or will the wizarding world be doomed. After questioning some anonymous students from Hogwarts of Witchcraft and Wizardry I was able to find out that the Golden Trio is no more.

One source blamed the female counterpart of the Trio saying that she had been playing both Mr Potter and Mr Weasley against each other.

Another source revealed pictures and great details of what happened during Mr Weasley's and Miss Granger's break up. Apparently the Gryffindor red-head was cheating on our lovely Gryffindor Princess with none other then the 'Hogwarts broomstick' as the anonymous source called her. I do not feel it relevant to reveal the name of the blonde Gryffindor who broke apart the Golden Trio.

During their argument in the middle of the Great Hall Mr Weasley begged the Gryffindor Princess for another chance saying 'It was a mistake' and that he could 'explain'. Although how cheating could ever be a mistake I will never know. Of course the Brains of the recently broken up Golden Trio wasn't falling for his tricks and neither did Mr Potter as he 'punched Ron's lights out'. After more arguing it was revealed that Mr Weasley thought Miss Granger deserved it because she would not sleep with him.

After I had researched more it was revealed that Miss Granger went through torture both muggle and wizard ways and also rape. I could not get any of Miss Granger's close companions to reveal anything so decided to talk to her recently made ex.

Mr Weasley revealed all 'some people thought she was a total prude, so did I myself until she finally told me the reason she wouldn't go any further then kissing with me. I can't really recall his name but I know that she was raped before we were taken to Malfoy Manor to be tortured. That crazy Lestrange bitch wanted to 'play with the mudblood' so Harry and I were taken to the cellar whilst Hermes was tortured. . . I don't get why she just can't get over it all. Plenty of people have been through it but she just wants the attention. I can't believe Harry fell for it really but he always seemed a bit slow, he'll realise I was right in the end and come crawling back to me".

Whilst I personally think that Mr Weasley needs his head checked there are plenty of anonymous students who agreed with Mr Weasley, along with his new girlfriend Miss Brown who stated that 'I would have gotten over any of what the know-it-all has been through she just wants to be special".

Now with the Golden Trio no longer a Trio will they still manage to save the Wizarding world? With all of the Death Eaters now escaped it is advised that people do not go anywhere without their wands and a companion. The wizarding schools are once again getting Aurors for safety measures. Hogwarts is gaining most of the Aurors and members of a once secret Order to protect the school and its students.

The real question behind the Death Eaters escape is what are they planning? I myself wish to know if they are planning to bring He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named back again. After questioning many Ministry officials I found out that a new prophecy has just been made. Whilst the source could not tell me what the Prophecy said he revealed that it was about He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named and that 'Potter is not involved in this one'. So if Mr Potter is not the saviour of the wizarding world this time who is?

There was a moment of silence before the Great Hall was surrounded by shouts and screams of terror and shock. I noticed Neville pale over the table as he read which Death Eaters had escaped before his eyes darkened and he glared at the paper making it set on fire. Harry startled spelled water to shoot out of his wand and put out the fire.

"Hermione are you okay?" I jumped startled and turned to look at Ginny who was looking at me with worry and sympathy.

I opened my mouth to reply but nothing could come out. I wasn't sure whether to wallow in grief because now the whole world new about my rape or to be extremely angry and murder Ronald right there in the Great Hall. One good thing out of the second option was that in Azkaban the Death Eaters could not get me because who would want to break into a place they had just broke out of?

Answer … no one would.

The Great Hall started to quieten down as Professor Dumbledore stood up and shouted for order. I didn't look up from the Daily Prophet but noticed the many order members and Aurors coming through the Great Hall doors. I noticed Tonks and Sirius glance anxiously towards the Gryffindor table before they all moved to watch entrances and keep an eye on the students.

"This is not a time to panic, you are all safe in Hogwarts-" Professor Dumbledore tried to calm everyone down but was cut of when a Ravenclaw sharply interrupted.

"What like we were last time?"

There were more shouts and screams and I felt my anger boil as I crushed the newspaper in my hands. I muttered a spell and watched as it disintegrated. Many people who were sat close to me scooted away as I watched the ashes scatter away.

"Mr Tarner last time was because they had a way into the castle, this time they do not…" I stopped listening to his reassurances to glance down the Gryffindor table. I connected eyes with Ron who was smirking in my direction.

My eyes narrowed in a glare and my magic crackled around me as my anger grew. He was pleased that he had aired my private business to the whole of wizarding Britain and most likely the escapees from Azkaban themselves. I felt my magic crackle through my hair as he waggled his eye brows suggestively at me. I could just imagine my hair moving and curling from my magic. I noticed Harry glance at me nervously as he seemed to realise my anger before he followed my gaze.

His face darkened as he watched Ron smirk at me. I felt Ginny place her hand in my mine and give it a little squeeze "ignore him 'Mione".

I nodded and turned to look at the Headmaster who was still talking "… I welcome the many Aurors and Order members who are taking residence in the castle to look after Hogwarts many students, it will not be a hard job so I want you all to treat them kindly and follow any rules and orders they give you. Now, please continue with your dinner".

I turned back to the table and started tapping on it whilst I thought not realising that I was mumbling and making my friends glance at me wearily.

'Deserved it did I?'

'Should have gotten over it by now they say?'

'like they even know anything about torture or death'

'how I would love to get some revenge on that ginger headed pineapple and his Barbie doll'

I glared down at my cup of pumpkin juice that had been popped into existence from the kitchens before taking in a shuddering breath. I licked my lips and felt my eyes prickle with unshed tears. Stupid hormonal body!

Suddenly my head snapped up and my mouth fell open with a gasp.

Hormonal? When was my last period? Oh Godric I think I'm going to be sick. I didn't realise I wasn't breathing until Luna turned to me sharply.

"Hermione what's wrong … okay stupid question … Hermione, where are you going!" she shouted the last bit out as I jumped out of my seat and ran from my stunned friends. I ran past a surprised Tonks and Sirius before running towards the Hospital wing. Hoping that Madam Pomfrey was there.
