Disclaimer: I own nada. Aside from the plot.
Hey dear readers, so I updated this pretty quickly. But don't get too used to it. I have a lot of homework that I should really be working on. Not writing fanfiction. Here is it, Chapter uno!!!!
------------------------
Racing onto the train last minute, Hermione breathed a sigh of relief and went to find her friends. Finding them in the last car with no compartments, she sat down and started laughing.
"Hermione, care to share what is so funny?"
"Hm, funny? Oh, yes, I almost missed the train, as usual, nothing new actually. Such a specialty of mine it is," she laughed.
"Always doing things to recklessly, I hope you miss the train one day."
"Oh please Blaise, like I would miss the train. Besides, even if I did miss it, I would just apparate to the train station. Not a big deal." Blaise opened his mouth to say something but was cut off by Draco asking Hermione how the last week of her summer was after she left his house. While she was answering, Theodore Knott stood up and walked over to the small group.
"…I mean it was bloody stupid of him to—Oh hello Theo, how are you?" Hermione asked, "Are you leaving the car? I'm going too." She stood up and linked arms with Theodore and strode out of the car. The heavy door clicked behind her and a lost first year stood in front of her.
"Oh, oh, you are Hermione Granger, right? I was told you find you, and.. and.. uhm, why are you… Slytherin… what?" The poor first year asked suddenly becoming confused and scared.
"Excuse you, you're in out way," Hermione started, "Who the bloody hell would be looking for me? Get out of my way munchkin, and tell whoever is looking for me to bugger off and leave me alone." She then turned to Theo, "Why the bloody hell would anyone be looking for me when I just saw everyone I cared to talk to?" Theo only shrugged his shoulders, "Come on, let's go bug some first years, shall we?"
Meanwhile in another compartment on the other side of the train…
"Hey Ron, have you seen Hermione yet? I never saw her get on the train and I haven't seen her anywhere. I never even saw her over break," mused Harry.
Ron replied with a sullen tone, "Nah never saw her mate. It's weird though isn't it, she's usually the first on the train, and I never saw her either. Do you think something might have happened to her or her family?"
"Don't know Ron. Hang on. You! Hey you there!" Harry yelled out to a first year that seemed a little lost. "Hey, yes you. Come here. Don't look so scared. What's your name?" The boy responded Jason Kelly was his name and if he could be so kind could he tell him where the first years were. "Yea, yea, uh they are in the first and second cars, but before you go... could you do us a favor? Find Hermione Granger for us. She's got brown frizzy hair, brown eyes. She's in Gryffindor…"
"She's a girl..." quipped Ron.
"Thanks Ron," Harry said looking at him like he was an idiot. "She might be hanging around with Luna or Ginny."
"They're girls too…" said Ron.
"Right, anyway, could you look for her and if you find her tell her to find us. Got that? Good. Thanks." Turning to Ron after Jason left he said, "I hope she's okay. Did you honestly feel the need to tell him they are girls? I mean, isn't it obvious?"
Back with Hermione and Theodore
"So anyway, my parents and I spent most of the summer practicing some spells, much like every summer though. Can you believe it, after years of following the Dark Lord I can finally join him," Hermione went on, "All my life I've been working hard to meet his expectations, and now, I get everything." Theo only listened and nodded; he knew he could say nothing. He knew all of these memories of hers were fake. Voldemort killed her muggle parents and obliviated her memory placing her with pureblood parents and instilling in her that she too is pureblood. He wants Harry Potter to lose the brains if his operation so he can kill him finally. He also tampered with Dumbledore's memory so she could be placed in Slytherin along with the rest of his teenage followers. All the students in the snake house have been warned of this plan and threatened with the Cruciatus curse if they chose to disobey him.
"Hey Hermione, the train is almost at Hogwarts, let's head back to the car," Theo noted as they pushed a couple first years out of their way and walked right past Harry and Ron's compartment.
---------------------
Hey everyone I know in this chapter she is walking around with Theo and some of you are probably like "WTF, this is a Draco/Hermione story." Well yes, it is. But right now I chose Theo for three reasons: 1: Draco is clichéd and overused. 2: No one pays attention to Theo, Blaise is always the second choice (which is also cliché). 3: She thinks Theo and she have been best friends since they were 7.
If you haven't noticed, I really hate clichéd things, so I try to avoid that in my writing. Also, I try to avoid words that are overused.
