Hermione head Harry, Ginny, and Ron before she saw them because of how loudly they were talking to one another. She looked over at her new found Father and grimaced. "Can you tell them that if they want to come in and see me they need to quiet down please? My head is still hurting."

Severus nodded and stood up and walked over to the infirmary doors just as they were pushed open. He glared at the Harry, Ginny, and Ron and held up a hand to stop their forward progress and hissed "If you wish to come in and see Hermione then you will do so quietly. Her head is bothering her and she doesn't need loud voices or loud noises. I will also tell you the first person who upsets Hermione will lose house points regardless of the house. Do you all understand me?"

Albus who was standing behind Harry, Ron, Ginny, and Draco smiled and said "They will be quiet Severus or they will get thrown out of the hospital wing. Now how is our girl doing?"

Severus smiled slightly and then had to bite back a chuckle when he saw Harry, Ginny, Ron, and even Draco in shock with their mouths dropped open. "Hermione is doing okay Albus other than the headache and feeling drained. The Bloody Baron and the Grey Lady are next to her now trying to help her levels come back up. She is still dealing with the after effects of the Cruciatus curse but over all I think that she is doing good."

Albus nodded and looked at the four students standing in front of him and Minerva. "If Hermione wishes to tell you what is going on you will all listen with open minds and not act hastily. If you do indeed act hastily you will be asked to leave the infirmary and you will lose house points as well as get a detention for your behavior. Now if you are ready and can be quiet we will all go in and check on Hermione now."

Harry, Ginny, Ron, and Draco all nodded and then followed Severus into the infirmary and over to where they saw Hermione laying on a hospital bed talking quietly to two ghosts. They shook their head in amazement at the sight because they knew that the two ghosts that were talking to Hermione normally didn't talk to anyone. Once they were at her bed side they all looked at her.

Harry sighed and said "How are you doing 'Mione?"

Hermione looked at Harry and then held a hand out to him when she saw the concern in his eyes and smiled when he placed his hand in hers. "I'm doing alright Harry. The ghosts are helping to restore my magic levels. Other than the tremors I am having and the headache I feel just fine."

Harry nodded and asked "Why is Professor Snape calling you Hermione instead of Miss Granger like he normally does?"

Hermione sighed and looked over at Severus and when she saw him give her a nod she looked back at Harry and said "I was adopted Harry and I just learned that Professor Snape is my biological Father. It seems as if I am the daughter of light and dark and I would have come into my powers at midnight when my birthday started but since Parkinson attacked me they came in sooner. I ended up losing consciousness and I learned a lot of new things about myself that I didn't know. I know that you will want to know and I will tell you but not tonight."

Harry nodded again but before he said anything Ron yelled "YOUR FATHER IS A DEATH EATER 'MIONE! YOU CAN'T POSSIBLY BE THINKING ABOUT ACTUALLY TELLING PEOPLE HE IS YOUR FATHER!"

Hermione looked at Ron and glared as she snarled "Listen here Ronald the war is over and you know that Professor Snape is on our side. If you can't handle the fact that he is my Dad then you can go screw yourself. I will not allow you or anyone else to talk badly about my Father. I wouldn't even let you talk badly about him when I didn't know he was my Father so why would I let you now?"

Ron glared at Hermione but before he could say anything Draco cut in with "I think that you should leave Weasley. You were warned by both Professor Snape and the Headmaster not to upset Granger and yet you did. I may not be close to Granger like you are but even I can tell that she is in pain."

Ron turned to look at Draco but once again before he could say anything Albus cut in with "I think that Mr. Malfoy is right Mr. Weasley and you need to leave. Plus ten points from Gryffindor and two detentions with Filch for not listening."

Hermione looked at Ron and then looked at Draco and said "Thank you Malfoy. Not that I mind you being here but why are you here Malfoy?"

Draco chuckled and waited until Ron left before he finally said "I wanted to come and see how you were doing. Why didn't you tell me that Pansy wasn't doing her rounds with you? You knew that you shouldn't be doing rounds alone because while the war may be over there are still some Death Eaters that are loose."

Hermione sighed and said "I was going to tell the Headmaster tonight but before I could Parkinson attacked me. I was hoping that she would come around but instead she blames me for her Father being in Azkaban and for her and her Mother being in shame. It wasn't my fault that they chose the side they did and it wasn't my fault that her Father chose to fight and get caught."

Draco nodded. "You are right Granger it isn't your fault at all. I'm just sorry that you got hurt because of her beliefs."

Hermione shook her head. "None of this was your fault Malfoy. In fact I have a favor to ask of you."

Draco lifted an eyebrow and drawled "What is your favor Granger?"

Hermione shot a look at Severus and then looked back at Draco. "I'd like for you to write your Mother and Father and ask them to come to Hogwarts in the next couple of days. I learned that your Mother and Father are my Godparents and I'd like to have the chance to see how they react to me without having to act like the believe in all the pure blood bullshit now."

Draco's mouth dropped open in shock and he asked "What do you mean they acted like they believed in it?"

Hermione swallowed and looked at Severus and Albus and demanded "You mean to tell me that you haven't told Malfoy yet that his Father was a spy for the Order?"

This time it was Albus', Severus' and Minerva's mouths who dropped open and Severus demanded "How did you know that Hermione?"

Hermione chuckled. "Mum told me when I had a talk with her."

Severus sighed and said "We will talk about this tomorrow. Instead of having Draco write to Narcissa and Lucius I will floo call them and ask them to come tomorrow and then all of us can sit down and talk."

Hermione nodded and said "I'm tired."

Severus nodded and said "We will let you sleep then. Before you go to sleep are you up to taking the spell off of Parkinson?"

Hermione sighed and nodded and said "If someone will help me up I will do it now."

Draco and Harry both stepped forward and helped Hermione up and then asked at the same time "What spell did you use on Parkinson?"

Hermione shook her head and with the help of both Draco and Harry walked over to the bed that Pansy was on. "I'm not exactly sure because I wasn't exactly myself when I cast it. I will tell you what happened tomorrow but basically I cast a spell that is causing her to relive all the emotional pain she has made anyone else feel just ten times stronger than what they felt."

Draco's eyes widened in shock and then he said "Remind me not to piss you off Granger."

Hermione laughed and with a wave of her hand she took the spell off of Pansy and then let Draco and Harry help her back to her bed. "It isn't me you have to worry about Malfoy if you piss me off. I'm pretty sure that Professor Snape will not take kindly to anyone who hurts me."

Severus who had been listening nodded and said silkily "You are right in that Hermione. Now that you did that I want you to get some sleep. The ghosts are going to stay here with you and I will be back in the morning. If you need me before that just send one of the ghosts or a house elf to get me. Okay?"

Hermione nodded and got comfortable and said just as she started to fall asleep "Okay Dad."

Severus' eyes widened and then he smiled slightly as he motioned for everyone to leave Hermione. Once they were all out in the hallway he turned to look at Albus. "We will talk in the morning Albus."

Albus nodded and looked at Harry and Draco. "You both get back to your rooms. We will fill you in on what exactly happened tomorrow morning."

Both Harry and Draco nodded and then followed Severus down the hall and to their own rooms. Both boys were wondering just what had happened and what it was going to mean for Hermione.
