Chapter 48: Homecoming

The young woman was beginning to glimpse the near future that lay ahead. Hermione felt it was time for her to be away from the comfort and security Storybrooke gave her. She took her time packing her bags, and soon she would be at Hogwarts and face new challenges. Above all, Sirius and Remus had planned to bring her to the headquarters of the Order of the Phoenix. They knew they could find Harry, Ron and others there. Thus, Hermione would find her relatives and have time to explain to them at least part of the changes that had taken place.

It had been established that the two men would make the connection between the city and the school. Admittedly, the sending of owls was always possible but for big events, talking face to face would be easier. Besides, Sirius and Remus were more than happy to know that they would be able to return to this city. Both had ties to two of the women they were eager to see again.

- It's time to go Hermione. Remus said, waiting on the doorstep.

- I'm coming, I'm coming.

- I have the right to a goodbye anyway! Henry smiles.

Everyone was waiting in front of the house. A touch of anguish and apprehension could be felt in the air. Nobody really knew what was going to happen to Hermione. The young witch dodged all the frightened eyes that fell on her to plunge into Henry's arms. She gave him a gentle but tender kiss. She stayed for a few more minutes in Regina's arms and then Robin's, before saying goodbye to Roland.

- I'll miss you too, little man. She told him, running her hand through his hair.

- Mione, mione! Replied the child, understanding that she was going away.

The young witch turned her gaze to Robin.

- Take care of them, they need you, all four, dad.

At the saying of this name, everyone began to smile. Regina almost had tears in her eyes. However, she would have put that on the hormones if it had been remarked. The witch and the two men then moved away slightly to be able to teleport without problem. They arrived in a small corner of the street in front of the Headquarters. Hermione took a deep breath before entering the building.

She arrived in front of Harry and Ron. It was immediately that she rushed into the arms of the latter two. They were amazed, but shook her. The three teenagers were more than happy to meet again. The other members of the Order immediately understood that something had happened. Molly walked slowly to Sirius and Remus.

- She is fine? Asked the matriarch.

- Yes Molly. She is fine. Some things are just a little different now. Answered Remus.

- What do you mean? Which things?

- It's not up to us to talk about it, Molly. Hermione will tell you what she wants to share. Added Sirius.

The young woman felt at the centre of all eyes and lost her confidence in her. She had everything to be an accomplished witch, even more so now that she had so much power. However, when she looked at the wand in her hand, she wondered if it was still useful. Still staring at her, Hermione could not match two words. Feeling her legs shaking, she made a chair appear behind her. The latter materialized in an aura and a haze.

- How did you do that Mione? Ron asked.

- It's a very very very long story.

Hermione realized that this argument was not going to be enough to calm the hundreds of questions that should come to her friends' minds.

- Let's just say, she said, that my holidays was like my years at Hogwarts.

She threw a big smile to everyone. The Gryffindor knew that by tomorrow, with her return to school, things would be greatly complicated.


Note : A chapter a bit short but, I think it is necessary for the transition Storybrooke - Hogwarts
