Author's Note: Hello! I'm really excited that people are actually reading my story and enjoying it! This chapter is mostly just explaining what had happened during the war and more of the background knowledge. Thanks to my reviewers and followers: Bellamort23, The Epic Time Lord, and The Young and The Lovely!

Previous Chapter: "Hello, and welcome to another year at Hogwarts School Of Witchcraft and Wizardry. As always, the Forbidden Forest is strictly off-limits. The caretaker, Argus Filch, has posted an updated banned items list. Finally, since the end of the war, everyone who fought has changed, maybe even discovered their real selves. For that reason, I am resorting all the students who fought in the war, the sixth and seventh years. Can all the sixth and seventh years please proceed to the front of the Great Hall." said Dumbledore.

"Abbot, Hannah" said McGonagall

"Hufflepuff!"

...

"Granger, Hermione"

Ah, Miss Granger, as a war hero, you certainly have plenty of bravery. But wait, you seem to have a fair amount of Slytherin tendencies. Well, I'm sure the people wouldn't want their Golden Girl in Slytherin, would they? Better be...

"GRYFFINDOR!"

The entire Great Hall was engulfed in a blanket of silence. Not even a single breath could be heard. Everyone was focused on the lone person sitting on a stool with a tattered hat on their head. Everyone was wondering the same question: How did they get into Gryffindor?

Clapping was heard all over the Great Hall when Hermione Granger became the Gryffindor Golden Girl for her final year at Hogwarts. Unfortunately, because she was an "eighth year", she was not able to become Head Girl, that was given to Luna Lovegood. Almost all of Hermione's year returned to Hogwarts, except for most of the Slytherins. Harry had defeated Voldemort with Hermione's and Ron's help, but the war came with many losses on both sides. On the side of the Light, they lost Mad-Eye Moody, Hedwig, Dobby, Colin and Dennis Creevey, Padma Patil, and Cho Chang. Only the people on the side of the Dark know who they lost in the war. No one on the Light really cared who the Dark lost anyway, they believed they deserved it.

"'Mione!" Yells Ron.

"Oh, sorry I just got lost in my thoughts. Yes, Ron?" Says Hermione.

"I've been waiting for you to walk through the portrait for 5 minutes!"

Hermione blushes and walks through the Gryffindor portrait. Harry walks through the portrait and spots Hermione and Ron. "Hey guys, sorry I took so long to get up here, Dumbledore made me go to his office. So, up for some wizards chess Ron?"

"Of course mate, you know I would never give up a chance to beat you!" says Ron.

"Checkmate." says Ron.

"I don't know how you do it, Ron." sighs Harry.

Immediately after he says this, the Fat Lady's portrait opens, and in walks, Draco Malfoy?
