''MISS GRANGER sit down or I shall have to arrest you.'' the Woman officer shouted at her.
Hermione sat down ''I didn't know, I have just got back from school today ask my teachers' school finished about five hours ago.''
The two officers spoke to the teachers, they then looked back and spoke in a calmer tone and nodded ''I am sorry for you loss Miss Granger, we will be hunting for Mark Granger however if you should hear from him let us know. Would you like to press charges against him for abuse?''
''Oh are you sure I can be trusted.'' she said sarcastically she then shook her head ''No just for my mother, I don't care for me it's over'' Just then Hermione saw a bloody Mark Granger run into the room he seemed to panicking.
''Stop?'' The male officer shouted as he and the other one jumped up, but before they could get there they saw Hermione on top of him.
Hermione shouted and ran for him she kicked him in the leg, causing him to trip ''YOU BASTARD YOU KILLED MY MOTHER YOU TOOK HER AWAY FROM ME WHO THE FUCK DO YOU THINK YOU ARE SHE WAS MY MOTHER. I AM HER DAUGHTER MARK NOT YOURS AND YOU WILL SO PAY FOR THIS'' Hermione got up and kicked him in the side ''LIKE THAT DO YOU.''(kick)''PEICE OF SHIT, SHALL I DO WHAT YOU DONE TO MUM.''(kick) but before she could do anything else she was removed by the Male police officer while the other one handcuffed him.
''Mark Granger, I am arresting you for the murder and Domestic abuse of Jean Granger, you do not have to say anything, but it may harm your defence if you do not mention, when questioned, something you later rely on in court. Anything you do say may be given in evidence.'' DCI Jones read him his rights while she placed the handcuffs on him she turned to the other college ''Take him away make sure he is booked and in holding.'' she watched as the other officer walked away, she then turned to Hermione ''Miss Granger you may have to attend court we will be in touch with your solicitor if we have a need of you.''
''Would it be ok if Miss Granger came with us back to school she has no other family and she is of age we will take care of her.'' Albus said to the two officers.
''Yes I think that would be best under these circumstances.'' The male officer spoke
Hermione nodded ''When will I be able to have M...mum for a funeral?''
''you should be able to have her released next Friday, I am sorry for your loss Miss Granger.''
Hermione was led out of her house but before she went she shouted over her shoulder ''Make sure you shut everything behind you I will return in a few weeks.'' and then she was gone.
Harry was fast asleep when he heard crying and shouting he shot up in bed, placing his glasses on he realized it was Hermione, he quickly shot out of bed and headed into her room when he walked in he saw that she was covered in sweat and struggling in her bed he walked over climbed into bed with her like she had done many times before. He pulled her head on his chest to calm her down she rubbed soothing patterns on her back.
''No, Mum, Mum come on wake up talk to me.'' come sniffing ''Please mum hold on I got people coming help on it's way.''
Harry decided to shake her awake because nothing was soothing her ''Mione (no answer) he tried again a little bit louder, Mione and then he shouted her name this time he needed to wake her up HERMIONE.'' He shook her as well when he saw her sit straight up he relaxed glad she was awake.
Hermione could here someone shaking her and calling her she shot up and looked around to see Harry in her bed looking down at her in concern ''Harry?'' She looked at him and burst into tears as she berried her self into him ''Oh harry, it was horrible I miss her so much.''
Harry held Hermione tight ''Oh Mione, shh it's ok your safe I know you do but she is watching over you like she said she would.''
Hermione nodded and continued to cry and she did she cried until she fell back to sleep resting on Harry
Harry held her until she cried her self to sleep once she was only then did he allow him self to fall asleep his only hope would be that Ron would come around and try to be there for Hermione because he knew it was hurting her not having him around.
The next morning, Harry and Hermione both woke at the same time he looked down at her ''Hey how are you feeling?''
Hermione sat up, stretching her body ''I'm ok now I guess it was just the stress of the day yesterday.'' she patted his hand as she got out of bed ''So later I am going to the library and you are coming with me we are going to look and see if we can find what these items could be that belong to the other houses excluding ours.''
Harry nodded ''Ok I can do that. What about Ron should we ask him?''
Hermione sighed and thought about it and then shook her head ''No, we will just tell him what we know when we find what we need.'' she smiled ''And as soon as I am alone in the lab I am going to brew us some potions that we will need should be have to go searching for these Horcrux.''
Harry smiled ''Excellent I would be so screwed with out you Mione.''
Hermione laughed ''yes dear brother you sure would.'' she smiled at him ''now as much as I love you I would like to get dressed unless you wish to stay seeing as we are siblings?'' she looked at him trying to hide her smirk she loved teasing him
Harry stuttered and coughed ''Erm yeah ok then. I um will see you outside.'' he quickly left Hermione to get ready as he headed to his room to get ready, he could hear Hermione laughing next door he smiled glad to hear her laughing.
Hermione watching him leave and burst out laughing it amused her that much she started getting ready for the day she looked in the mirror she sighed she knew she had changed her body had grown in to her body her hair now fell into smooth curls instead of being bushy like it used to be and she thought she looked pretty she wouldn't call her self gorgeous but she smiled a little at her appearance her uniform fit her better and they exenterated her womanly curves thanks to Ginny's advice she laughed to her self she quickly brushed her hair and headed out to the common room grabbing her bag and waiting for Harry.
Harry come out of his room dressed his hair still as messy and wild as ever only it didn't' stick up as much it had gotten more weight an grew a little longer now he didn't look to much like his father he smiled at Hermione ''Hey you ready to go then?''
Hermione smiled ''Yep let's go today is a new day and we need to get a move on these Horcrux.''
Harry nodded and followed Hermione out of the common room and down to the Great Hall for breakfast once they got there they instantly saw Ginny smiling at them they walked up and sat down next to her and started talking when Harry noticed some guilt flash in Ginny's eyes when she spoke to Hermione and some sadness he wondered what was up with her he looked around and saw Ron sat there with a smile on his face and sat by lavender he thought nothing of it.''
Ginny smiled at Hermione ''Hey how are you? I heard about everything from Harry about Ron the prat I am truly pleased you broke up with him Mione you deserve much more as well as respect, I am so sorry.'' she was unaware that Hermione had no idea what was being discussed and shut her mouth instantly.
Hermione was confused by her friend ''Gin, are you ok, you seem a little conflicted like you have something weighing you down?'' she eyed her suspiciously and with concern.
Ginny looked at Hermione with guilt and sadness in her eyes ''Nothing honest I just hate what my brother did and has done to hurt you.'' she noticed Harry look at her with speculation she realized that Harry had noticed the look and that meant that he would be questioning her very soon. She turned back to her food and talked with others trying to avoid Hermione at the moment.
Hermione was confused with Ginny and when she hardly spoke to her and avoided eye contact with her she was even more confused she turned to Harry ''Hey did you see that? I think something is wrong with Gin?''
Harry too had noticed ''Yeah I noticed I don't know, maybe she is just stressed from studying or with the war you know we all are.'' he said, hoping to put Hermione's thoughts to rest, he knew something had happened, obviously because of how upset and conflicted Ginny sounded when she spoke to Hermione and he knew it was something to do with Ron it had to be. He only hoped for Hermione's sake that he hasn't done anything that will destroy or break her otherwise there would be more than a few words happening between the two of them.
Hermione smiled at Harry and Ginny ''Hey guy's I got to go up and speak to Professor Snape to see when he wants me to visit him.'' she didn't give them a chance to replay she got up and headed to the head table.
Harry watched her leave and decided to use this as an advantage he slid up next to Ginny ''Gin what has Ron done?'' he whispered so no one would overhear them.
Ginny watched Hermione leave and saw Harry slide next to her, she knew he was going to ask ''Nothing why?''
Harry frowned ''Don't lie to me Ginny. if he has done something i need to know i do not want Mione to find out from others and i don't want her hurt.'' he said seriously he wasn't giving up.
Ginny sighed ''I found Ron and Lavender in on the couch in the common room one night it was well into the early hours everyone was in bed.''
Harry tensed and fisted his hands he was sleeping with lavender brown of all people ''What else.''
''I heard lavender asking him if he was going to try and get back with Hermione, and he told her that he would need her to help with his homework and that's the only reason he was with her and it was her he wanted otherwise he wouldn't have been sleeping with her for the past five months he also said that he could never leave his Lavender because Mione was a prudish ice queen and would never put out.'' Ginny said all this while watching Harry's face contort each time with anger she also felt sick because of the way Mione was being used she gave him a few minutes to work the dates out.
Harry sat there and listened to everything he couldn't believe it ''Hang on you said five months? but Mione and Ron were only together almost Tw...'' and then he whispered harshly ''He has been sleeping with her while he was with Mione. He actually only got with her to use her!'' Harry was livid now he couldn't believe it. he looked at Ginny and could see the concern '' your right don't' tell Mione just yet, ill do it as soon as possible.'' he then got up and stormed over to where Ron was sitting next to Lavender.
Ginny watched Harry head towards Ron ''Harry don't'' But she knew it was no good everyone was now looking at her and them.
Harry walked up to Ron and stood behind him he waited for him to turn around ''You Ronald have blown it big time.'' he shook his head ''you to never, NEVER come near me or Mione again you are no longer a friend of mine you are a spineless useless human being I never thought you could do this or even capable.'' He spat at him.
Lavender was angry at Harry for shouting at him ''Don't talk to won won like that.''
