Chapter 2

Questions and Friends?

Hermione didn't mind sitting alone; at this point she actually liked it. She was grieving the loss of her old life and her friends. She ate slowly and watched the hall as she did.

"Hi."

Her eyes snapped up at the sound of the famine voice. She saw deep green eyes and dark red hair; the eyes made her own start to tear up again with the thoughts of Harry.

"Hi." She said softly whipping at her eyes.

"I'm Lilly, but you know that." She smiled "May I sit?"

"Yeah, that's alright." Hermione said.

"You said you're a seer, can you tell me about my future?" She asked.

"Only little things, I don't get the major details." Hermione answered.

"Can you tell me if i have a family." she asked

Hermione put one hand on Lilly's and closed her eyes before talking. "You will have a son; he will have your eyes."

Lilly squeezed her hand and smiled. "Thank you."

"My name is Hermione; Lilly you can call me that." She said

The red head smiled. "Thanks again Hermione, would you like to sit with us?"

Hermione nodded not trusting her voice and followed her best friend's mother over the group she knew to be the marauders.

"Guys this is Hermione." Lilly introduced her.

"Hello Hermione." Said Remus Lupin

Peter Pettigrew smiled slightly and she wondered what would lead to his betrayal of the ones her called his friends.

"Can I call you Mione?" Sirius asked and not for the first time that day she began cry.

She found herself wrapped in strong arms her head resting on the Gryffindor crest. She looked up with tear filled eyes to meet dark blue ones that held sudden worry. She pulled herself together and out of his arms.

"Thank you James." She said

"Are you alright Hermione?" Lilly asked

"Just sad, my best friends called me Mione." she said "It got to me."

"Well let's sit; I'm sure Sirius can come up with a different nick-name." She shot him a look that said he better.

Hermione turned her head and caught onyx eyes staring at her, She smiled then turned back sitting down across from James and Lilly. She was glad to see that their love had begun.

"So Hermione how was the rest of your first day at school?" James asked.

"Actually I start classes tomorrow; I went to Hogsmead today to get new robes and clothes." She told them smiling slightly in the direction in which Severus Snape sat.

"Oh who took you?" Sirius asked his dark eyes narrowing.

"I do not believe that is any of your business Sirius Black." Hermione said. She knew that while in school Sirius had been a womanizer and she was not going to be his pray.

"Well excuse me for wondering." Sirius said

"You know what Sirius when I want you to worry about me, I'll let you know" she said standing and leaving making all of them stare after her.

When she reached the tower she said the password and went straight to bed. She changed into her P.J's and climbed in.

Hermione woke up early enough the next morning to be washed, dressed and out the door before anyone else woke. She went to breakfast and ate toast and eggs with pumpkin juice. She smiled when Severus walked in with Malfoy. She waved slightly at them and got nods in return.

"Miss Granger."

She looked up from her breakfast a second time and meets the headmaster's eyes. "Yes sir?"

"Will you please come to my office after you've finished eating?" Dumbledore said

"Of Crouse sir." she said Just as Lilly and the others arrived.

"What was that about?" Remus asked

"He wants me to come to his office." She answered when she finished eating. "I have got to go now."

Severus watched the brunette walk out of the hall with a look of curiosity on his face.

"You like her." Lucius said

He blushed slightly it was true, they had only meet the day before but he felt pulled toward her.

"Oh leave him be Luc." Narcissa said "I see something happening for them."

That caught his Attention she was a true seer of the future. "Really, Cissy?" He asked smirking to himself.

"Yes I see you two happy together." She said "at the moment that is all."

"What of us love?" Lucius asked turning his silver eyes toward his future bride.

"You know that for some reason Luc I cannot see us." She sighed "Maybe I'll ask Hermione."

Severus laughed, a Slytherin asking a Gryffindor about her future. How had it come to that? Would she be able to tell her anything? He silently wondered just what all she did know. Did she know his future? Did he have a family in her time if he was right and she was indeed a time traveler?

"It is good to hear you laugh Severus." Narcissa said airily before kissing Lucius on the cheek. "I'm heading to class."

The two boys followed her, one with a silly smirk on his face and the other still thinking about a certain brunette.

"Have a seat Miss Granger." Dumbledore told her as soon as she entered the room.

"Is something wrong?" She asked

"I have the duty of telling you that we do not know how to get you back home." He clarified with his eyes sparkling sadly.

"So I'm stuck here?" She questioned not believing it.

"For the moment yes you are." He said "We may find a way yet but by then you may not wish to return."

She nodded and left the office tears once again falling down her face she whipped at them furiously with her sleeve. She would never see Harry or Ron again, never be able to tell them how much they meant to her. She knew what she had to do and she went to class like normal with her eyes slightly red from crying, she took notes in class each time and then ran down to the lake after her last class. She sat down on the ground took out two pieces of parchment and a quill. After dipping it in ink she began to write.

Dear Harry

Hey Harry, I know that when you get this I will not be with you. I had to chance that this letter will last and come to you on the day I disappear. I wanted to let you know that you are my best friend and that I will always be with you at least in your memories. There may be a day that we see each other again but I don't know. I wish I could do something to change the fates of many of our classmates will meet with. Yes I said will.

Your friend always

Hermione "Mione" Granger

Dear Ron,

Ron, I hope everything works out between you and Lavender. I wish I could see it. Thank you for being my friend throughout school. I'm sorry I couldn't save Ginny there. Maybe I can Change things I don't know. Look after Harry he needs your friendship. You may have got on my nerves quite a bit Ron but you're still my friend, one of the two best friends I have ever had. I will be in your memories and you in mine.

Your friend

Hermione "Mione" Granger

"Who are Harry and Ron?"

She looked up to meet lite blue eyes. The girl in front of her was not unknown to her. It was Narcissa Black the future Mrs. Malfoy. "They are my old friends." She replied

"May I sit?" She asked

"Of Crouse you may." Hermione moved her papers after spelling the letters dry.

"I heard you are a seer is that correct?" Narcissa asked

Hermione nodded.

"I was wondering if you could see my future?" the elegant blond gave her hand to Hermione.

She took it and focused on the girl before her. "You will have a son with silver eyes he will be named dragon."

Her soft blue eyes sparkled. "You Hermione will find happiness here." she said with a smile.

"I hope so." Hermione smiled back. "I must go and work on my homework." she stood offering her hand to the slytherin girl. Together they walked up to the castle. They would talk about class and sometimes Narcissa would ask her about how she had meet Severus. Hermione would answer the same way each time that they had meet in the potions classroom. They smiled at each other as they went separate ways.

"Lucius!" Narcissa called as she entered the common room.

Said blond looked up at her as she all but ran at him. She looked extremely happy. "What is it love?" He asked ignoring the look Severus was giving him.

"Hermione saw a son in my future, our son she said he would be named dragon." she said excitedly. "A son can you believe that?"

"Hmm why would we name a child dragon?" Lucius said

"Maybe she meant that the meaning of his name would be dragon." Severus added before standing up. "If it's all the same to you I would rather not listen to talk of future children."

"Goodbye Severus." Cissy said smiling then she whispered to Lucius "He will find love."

Lucius smiled slightly at her. She was planning something.
