Chapter 13

"Not just any girl. Hermione's ancestor." Ablus answered, "She looks just like Jane. When I first met Miss. Granger I remembered Jane acting just like her except that Hermione was in the library more than she had been."

"Do you think…..if….if Voldemort sees Hermione he would think it would be Jane?" asked Sirius.

"Yes. He will probably feel happy but heartbroken. Tom feel in love with Jane since they first met but Jane never felt that way. She admitted she had a crush on him once but nothing more." Ablus answered.

"Ouch." Sirius whispered.

"After that night with the kiss, Jane told Tom that they were better off as friends." The headmaster continued. "Tom, of course, felt heartbroken because he was happy when he kissed her. In their 7th year, Jane found out about the Death Eaters and Tom being Voldemort. That broke her heart and they never spoke to each other until that day in Hermione's vision."

Back at the Hospital Wing….

"Professor, if you mind. Can I talk to Aelwyn alone?" asked Hermione politely.

Hermione was sitting on her bed while Aelwyn sat next to her on a chair. Hermione stared at the physic for a while.

"You are wondering how I know about your dream?" she asked.

"I remembered the dream but I'm guessing I had it because of this necklace." Hermione answered.

Aelwyn nodded.

"I said something before I fainted. I said fire arrow. Why did I say that?" Hermione asked.

"It was part of Jane's powers. She uses a bow and arrow to attack her enemies however; she used fire on her arrows. It was the only way to defeat them. She was a warrior, a wonderful and the most powerful one too." Aelwyn said.

"Did she lose a battle?" asked Hermione.

Aelwyn nodded sadly. Hermione looked down at her necklace and wondered if Jane had firepower, does she do too? The seer told Hermione that she knew how her ancestor lost the battle.

"It was a few years later, after your vision. There was huge war going on. So Jane decided to fight back. Her knights were fighting against the Death Eaters while she was searching for their leader-"

"Voldemort." Hermione interrupted.

"Yes." Aelwyn continued, "First, she used her wand and used as many curses to hurt him but none was good enough to wound him. So she had to choose; use her fire arrow or use more curses at him. She decided to use her fire arrow. She was waiting for Voldemort to use another curse at her so he would be unprepared. She was ready; her arrow was in her bow and her eyes were staring directly at the Dark Lord."

Hermione closed her eyes picturing her ancestor against Voldemort in a dark and cold field where Death Eaters and knights were wounded or dead.

"She pulled the bow and the arrow was flying towards Voldemort's chest. She knew that he would be dead just like that. However, he reversed the arrow and it struck at it's owner in the chest. Jane fell down to the ground bleeding rapidly." Aelwyn said in a scary voice which actually scared Hermione.

"Did she die?" whispered Hermione.

"No she didn't." Aelwyn answered. "But pretended to, so Voldemort would leave. Her eldest brother found her in the cold. The doctors did everything they could; they said that she lost a lot of blood and won't be able to control her powers with the fire arrow anymore. Even though she was young, her golden hair turned white but her beauty stayed the same. She lost control of her firepowers one night and decided to lock it in that same necklace, you are wearing right now." Aelwyn told Hermione.

Hermione touched her necklace and her eyes changed again to light blue. Hermione felt as though she could feel the power inside the necklace. After Aelwyn left, the young teen was left alone in the Hospital Wing in her warm bed. Hermione turned to face a candle near her, the fire almost gone.

Hermione closed her eyes remembering Aelwyn's words, "She uses a bow and arrow to attack her enemies however; she used fire on her arrows. It was the only way to defeat them. She was a warrior, a wonderful and the most powerful warrior of all time."

Hermione opened her hazel eyes again and concentrated onto the candle. She kept staring at it as if she was at a staring contest. Her eyes began to turn orange and red at the same time and suddenly, the fire was on the candle again. Hermione smiled a little and wished that her friends were here to see this. But then again, Hermione thought about her power and telling her friends about it.

"I will tell them later." Hermione thought.

The next morning, Hermione was out of the Hospital Wing and was shocked when she found out that Rafael and Harry did all of her homework for her. When she entered the Great Hall for dinner, everyone in the Gryffindor table gave her smiles and hugs saying that they were glad she was okay. As Hermione sat next to Harry, she felt as though someone's eyes were on her. She turned around and saw Professor Snape looking at her then looked back at his food.

"Hermione?" asked Harry. "You okay?"

"Huh? Oh yeah, I'm fine. Why is Snape staring at me?" she asked.

"After you fainted, Snape carried you to Hospital Wing and stayed with you for 2 days. He was actually worried about you." Harry answered.

Hermione blushed and turned to see Snape again and his dark eyes were on her eyes. Hermione didn't turn away but gave him a "thank-you" smile and then turned to face Ginny. Professor Dumbledore saw this and chuckled a little.

"It seems that Miss. Granger is not afraid of you anymore." He whispered as he leaned to Serverus.

"Splendid." He said coldly.

"It was very considerate of you, Severus to stay with one of my favorite students for two days in the Hospital Wing." McGongall said to him.

Severus Snape groaned as he put his fork down onto the table. He knew that both of his old professors were smiling at each other while he was in the middle. He rubbed his face and saw Hermione sitting and laughing with Harry and the two "adults" while Ron was flirting with Lavender Brown.

"How does she not know that those two buffoons are Remus and Sirius?" he thought. "Even Weasley found out before Potter."

But seeing Hermione laughing with Remus, Sirius, and Harry reminded him of Lily and the Marauder's. She was just like Lily; smart, brave, and beautiful but stupid to hang out with Potter and the other idiots. However, Snape noticed something different about Lupin and Black, the way they act around Granger. He smiled and chuckled a little. He definitely loved this year at Hogwarts.
