So I'm glad you guys liked the first chapter, so here is a second one. Hermione is a little bit of a badass and laying down the rules. I wanted to give her the feel that she is harden from the war and wasn't going to take shit from Regina. I hope you guys enjoy it and let me know what you think! Thanks.
Own Nothing.
Two.
He was interest, very interested as he watched her leave the diner and walk down the street. He let a light smile grace his lips, as he looked both ways before crossing the street. She was heading towards the Mayor's office, he watched as she neared it and sighed. Storybrooke is in for a lot of changes. He stood up and placed a tip on the table and walked out of the diner.
Hermione could feel his stares at she walked away. She looked across the street before crossing; she walked up to the Mayor's office. She stopped by the sectary and asked to see if the Mayor. The little woman smiled softly and lifted the phone, and whispered into it.
A minute later the Mayor walked out into the lobby. "How can I help you miss?" She tilted her head.
"I have a few things to discuss with you." Hermione walked past her and into her office. The Mayor looked annoyed as ever as she followed the strange woman into her office to find she looking out the window, she was looking at the apple tree. "I see that some things transcend time." She looked at the Mayor.
"Who are you and what do you want?" Regina asked, tilting her head.
"Here." Hermione slipped the envelope out of her purse and handed it to the Mayor. She continued to glance out the window as Regina read the letters inside.
"Are you joking?" Regina asked, voice pitched.
Hermione turned to face her and tilted her own head. "I don't joke Madame Mayor, I am the head of the Department of International Magical Law Office. My job Madame Mayor is to make sure everyone is playing by the rules. You know, no kicking, no hitting below the belt, that kind of thing."
"But what are you're doing here?" Regina tossed the papers on her desk and crossed her arms.
"In my office, I deal with things from the Department of Mysteries." She watched the Mayor. "In case you didn't notice Ma'am, I'm a witch."
"That is ridiculous." Regina spat.
Hermione continued. "I deal with curses, dark and evil curses. Because I can break them and when I found out about this town, Storybrooke Maine, a town stuck in time. " She walked around to stand in front of the Mayor. "I was coming here to break it, because under Ministry laws this curse should've been broken years ago and the caster would have been submitted to a Dementor's Kiss. But there's a prophecy, and by law all I can do is to be there to assist and protect the one the prophecy talks about."
"I don't know what you mean." Regina stated. "Get out of my office or I will have you arrested."
Hermione snorted and picked up the letter. "If you do that Mayor Regina, evil Queen or whatever you truly go by, your curse if forfeited from the prophecy and I will have you arrested by the Ministry and you will be sent to die." She let the letter fall to desk. And stepped closer. "You may be powerful enough to cast this curse and it left a whole in your heart which is why for you to fully love your son Henry."
"Don't you dare talk about my Son." Regina stepped closer, glaring at her. "I don't care who you are or what you're really doing here, but I will not be threatened by you."
Hermione raised an eyebrow at her. " I wasn't finish." She stared the woman down. "But I am much stronger and much more powerful than you will ever be. So here is my first and only warning you will get. My just is to observe and not to interferer, except to help the prophecy but I will not physically aide her. So here are the ground rules, if you make and threat to me, physical or otherwise you will be sent to be Kissed. It's like having all of your happiness sucked out of you, then your soul follows, slowly and painfully."
"Is that all?" Regina asked.
"No." Hermione pulled out another letter. "It has come to the Ministry's attention that your son Henry is special. Not only is he not under the curse, but also he will be a wizard. When he reaches the age of eleven he will be taken by the Ministry and put into a school that will help him."
"You cannot take me Son away from me." Regina's body shook with rage.
"You don't have a say in the matter, only the biological parent does and isn't it convenient that she is in town at this time?" Hermione stated. "Besides, Madame Mayor, by casting the curse you also forfeit rights to him."
"What?" Regina stepped back.
"I'm glad we had this talk." Hermione smiled lightly as she turned and walked out of the room. "Good day ma'am."
Regina let go of herself and leaned against her desk, her hand over her heart as it raced.
Hermione walked down the street and into the woods where she kept her tent. She didn't need to stay in town if she was just going to observe it. She walked past the schools and buildings as she made her way to the woods. "So you really pissed off Madame Mayor didn't you?" Hermione stopped and turned around to see the Sheriff.
"If you're here to arrest me, you can't." Hermione gave him a smile.
"Oh, I know. But I'm told to keep an eye on you, to make sure you don't cause any trouble. " He returned her smile as he walked to stand in front of her. "But I'm using it as an excuse to finally speak to you. It's not everyday that we get one visitor but two in the same week." He whistled. "It's a bit of a surprise for us all."
Hermione stared at him and chuckled. "I understand that she has a little crush on you, the Mayor."
"What? Where did you get that from?" He got caught off guard.
"In a town this small, and you're the Sheriff, I bet you were appointed, not voted in." She watched him. "Yea, she gave it to you. Listen I'm not here to step on anyone's toes, so don't worry about me." She turned to leave into the woods.
"Where do you think you're going?" He asked her.
She turned slightly to look at him. "I have a camp out here in the woods. It's not like I would be comfortable in town."
"You're not allowed to camp out in the woods, it's dangerous and illegal." He stepped closer to her. "I can't allow you to do so."
She smirked. "Dangerous and illegal, sounds like a breath of fresh air." She shrugged as her smirk turned into a smile. "It's not like you can arrest me." She turned and walked away.
"You know that you only it more interesting!" Sheriff Graham shouted as he watched her leave.
She glanced over her shoulder at him and smile. "Stay tune, this is only the beginning!" She shouted back as she looked forward.
