The room was not very large and had a very soft gold based walls and the windows opened out to a very beautiful view of the countryside. On the wall opposite to the bed was a door, on the corner a simple dressing table with all her make up, a cupboard on the side with all her jewels. There was a small balcony with an armchair made of dark maroon. On the other side of the bed was a large set of cupboards, opening them she found all her things unpacked and settled in neatly. The bathroom was not too large either, just a simple little bathtub and shower, a space built in for her shampoo, condition, body wash and scrub. Along with it was a bowl of bath salts for her use; the mirror was small above the sink. Opening the mirror she found her face wash, toothbrush, some of her basic medicines and other necessary items.
The bathroom it self did not take up too much space and there was a towel rack near it making it accessible from the bathtub. Looking around she sighed, "Not bad, not bad at all."
Washing up she walked up to the closet dressed in a light brown towel around her body. A knock was heard on the door, "Come in."
"Hermione morning tea will MERLIN GIRL YOU NEED TO GET DRESSED." She laughed, "People have seen me in worse conditions now what is it?"
"Morning tea will be ready soon, I will come and fetch you. The peach dress." He added getting out. Once he was out she changed out of the towel and into the dress. The material was light and the halter neck showed of her birthmark, even though the dress fell down to below her knees it showed enough skin to capture a lot of attention. Her makeup was light and her sandals had a very mild heals but nothing could hide the beauty. Not even her hair that was left completely open, when Bill came in again he gasped, "Wow, you look amazing girl. Though your hair will need a bit more brushing. May I?"
Quietly Hermione handed him the silver brush, "This is your mothers?"
"No I found it in the chamber, took it. Felt really nice when I brush my hair with it." Bill quietly brushed her hair with it taking time with any knot that passed his way. "There you look wonderful. Shall we?"
"We shall." She replied linking her hand with the one he offered. The place was no doubt some kind of a manor though it was no ordinary one. The walls were certainly repaired several times over the years. There were only muggle pictures, portraits and paintings no mark of anything magical in the place. Her eyes absorbed everything around her sucking in the whole thing. "So what is this place?"
"An old favorite of the white warriors, a safe house if you can call it that. Muggle people but they know about the magical world. Can take care of things." He added taking her hand into his as he helped her step through the door, "Mr and Mrs. Ravenwood meet Hermione, she was asleep through the whole day."
The room was created in a modern set up of couches, table and an armchair. A latest music system was humming some softly songs. Charlie sat on the couch near the wind rider reading the paper.
An man in his late forties was standing in the center of the room dressed in a pair of dark jeans and a white. He was light and well built, his blond hair cut quiet short showing a clear face with a French beard on the way. His eyes were dark brown and shone with warmth she had never seen. He was holding a cup and saucer in his hand, "Hermione, this is Rojer Ravenwood."
"Hello little lady." He called coming over and wrapping her in a hug, "Welcome feel at home."
"Thanks Mr. Ravenwood." She replied smiling, "Oh this is Nilly my wife."
Nilly was quiet different from her husband, she was a little on the plump side with a round face. She looked beautiful with a slightly dark skin and clear blue eyes framed with a curly reddish blond hair that framed her face. She wore a white blows with red and white vertical striped skirt that fell near her ankles. "Welcome Miss Riddle."
"Thank you for your hospitality Mrs. Ravenwood." Hermione replied a smile on her face, "Oh no-no, the pleasure is ours did you sleep well?"
"Yes thank you." She replied, "How would you like your tea?
"Milk and two sugar's please." Rojer led her to a seat when Nilly fixed the tea, "There is your tea little one have it when it is warm. Now regarding your diet."
"Diet?" she asked, "Yes your magic needs to be repaired, it can be done with a strict diet, your complete relaxation and enhancement of your power with the right meditation."
"Ok… I will work through your diet after all you are doing it for my aid." Nilly smiled, "That is my girl now what about your chores."
"Chores?" Nilly nodded, "Yes white warrior or not no one gets a free ride in this home. You have to do some kind of work. So what do you like to do?"
"As in house work, only thing those guys let me do as a kid was clean up the blood if things get messed up." Nilly looked like she was going to be sick, "I am sorry childhood stuff, apart from that I love gardening and cooking up. Major hobbies!"
"Really? Well little lady we have got your self a couple of jobs. Why don't you help me with the cooking and Rojer can work with you on the gardens. It is a large garden."
"Sounds great!" her smile was radiant, "Now why don't you go and pick some tomato's, fresh eggs for breakfast and flowers for the table. Amelia will show you around."
"Hermione, keep your protection up at all times. Important thing is the dark side is still out there –" Nilly interrupted her, "Amelia that is more than enough please the last thing she needs is a danger level lecture."
"Yeah Amelia the last thing she needs is a danger level lecture, cut some slack." She teased and got a towel thrown at her, "Now come on I will show you around this place."
In an unknown place
A man hidden behind a hood white watched as Hermione was seeing through the garden, the whole place was beautiful and filled with a sense of peace. Her eyes shone with happiness after a long time, "You always watch her priestess why?"
"Jason she is my child as much as yours more mine than yours dear, after all she is Athina's child." Jason looked into the eyes of the lady, "Where is Wormtail, why is he not with her?"
"Wormtail is in Potter Mannor at the moment he is doing some research they wanted she is protected. Nothing to worry about." She looked down, "Nothing to worry about Peter was appointed as Hermione's guardian by Athina herself. How could you defy her authority."
"Peter's said he will join her soon. He refused to answer any questions." The priestess yelled over her shoulder, "WHO IS THERE? SUMMON PETER TO THE TEMPLE."
"There will be no need my lady may I have a private audience." She nodded and everyone in the room quietly left bowing down, "What is it?"
"Hermione was born on a day when evil and good was balanced correctly. It was a balanced out mark the kind of mark that happened at that time. It takes place only once in a thousand years only one other person is recorded to have been like her. Cecilia that is why Hermione's soul is connected to her, only if the connection brakes can she defeat them."
"Defeat the dark shadows? Hermione, are you crazy there is nothing she can do against them." she replied, "The only thing she can do is may be tell the world about them."
"Hermione is the one who can do it, your believing or not does not does not matter in such situations." He replied marching out of the place his whole body pulsing with anger.
