Hermione's POV
The train stopped moving
knowing this was the work of death eaters, I stood up and walked to the Gryffindor section, where they would be looking
"Hey, losers, he isn't here" brave Longbottom, very brave
"Travers, Rosier, he's not here, you can go, I've already checked the train" I haven't, but my mission to get through this year is to protect as many people as possible.
grumbling but knowing, because the dark lord trusts me almost as much as Bellatrix now, they shouldn't argue back and left
"why did you do that?" Longbottom asked
"because I'm not your enemy in this story" following their example, I left
on my way, I saw them coming out of the Ravenclaw compartment with a blond girl
"hurry up" I muttered to them, she was one person I knew I wouldn't be able to save

"I'll see you in the common room, I have to touch up my makeup "
We just finished dinner, there were hardly any new first years, not a surprise, what was a surprise though, was the fact Snape was the new headmaster
I walked into the bathroom, thinking no one was in there, looking in the mirror, I pulled my lip gloss out of my bag and started dabbing it on.
I heard one of the stall doors open, on instinct, I looked toward the door through the mirror and rolled my eyes when I saw who it was
– Wren
she stood beside me in the mirror and took out her lipstick
"hi" she greeted, frowning
"hi," I muttered back
"mother and father are planning on getting a dog" merlin, this conversation is awkward
"that's great" unscrewing my mascara, she turned to me, a serious look on her face
"I'm sorry" reluctantly, I turned to her as well, opening my mouth to speak, she stopped me "just- just hear me out. Everything I said was wrong, I was angry and confused and worried because you had kept disappearing and I had no idea what was going on. I was being stupid; I was being a real idiot and if you just take me back that would make life so much easier and even if you don't I'll deal with it-"
"I forgive you"
"because I still love you and miss you- wait what? You do?" I nodded, a smile creeping its way onto my face "ah I missed you!"
she jumped onto me and hugged me so tight I could barely breathe
"Okay, okay chill"
suddenly another stall opened and Daphne appeared and jumped onto my back "YAY HERMIONE" laughing, I pulled her off me and hugged her properly "god I hated that, it was awful not having you for that long! Anyway, I have a bone to pick with you"
both of them grabbed my arms and pulled me out of the bathroom, along the corridor, into our common room, and to my dorm
"ouch"
they threw me on the bed
"YOUR WITH YOU-KNOW-WHO?!" Wren shouted
"oh yeah... that"
"YES THAT, WHAT THE HELL HERMIONE?" Daphne was screaming too
"look, listen to me and stop shouting, I had to, I was forced when Blaise died, if I could've changed it, I would've, now if you both sit and calm down I'll explain everything, ok?" instead of being angry at their outbursts, I was relieved, I thought they would take it way worse

"Mary Elizabeth Cattermole?"
"yes"
"of 27 Chislehurst gardens, great tolling Evesham?"
"yes"
Umbitch was 'questioning' a woman in the court hall, I have no idea why I need to see this
"mother to Maisie, Ellie, and Alfred? Wife to Reginald?"
the woman turned her head slightly and recognized a man standing there "Reg?" the other man with, I'm guessing, Reginald, looked like he was confused before grabbing the ginger ruffly and pushing him inside
"thank you, Albert" the Albert man stayed standing in the doorway "Mary Elizabeth Cattermole?"
"...yes"
"a wand was taken from you upon your arrival at the ministry today Mrs. Cattermole. Is this that wand?" the pink bimbo raised a plain brown wand, Mary nodded "would you please tell the court from which witch or wizard you took this wand?" well that's rude
"But I didn't take it, I got it in Diagon alley, at Ollivanders when I was 11... It chose me" forgive me if im mistaken Dolores but you are a half-blood which means one of your parents was a muggle... bit sus if you ask me
"you're lying. Wands only choose witches and you are not a witch" your voice still makes me want to rip out your vocal cords
"but I am, tell them Reg, tell them what I am" 'Reginald' seemed very reluctant to speak, weird "Reg, tell them what I am..."
Albert was angry, his wand in hand "what on earth are you doing Albert?"
his face started to contort
"your lying Dolores and one mustn't tell lies"
POTTER
"Stupefy!"
she fell back in her chair, Reginald attacked Yaxley and the woman on the side to Umbridge took her locket and threw it to Potter.
as if it wasn't one danger attacking two ministry officials, Dementors came from every direction as they tried to get away
"This isn't gonna end well"
