DARK 🐍Hermione Granger🐍

Chapter 7

After the whole assembly, I found myself being surrounded by a bunch of people. I looked up with wide eyes. "Uh...can I help you?" I asked.

"What's it like having a Tribrid as your sister?"
"How does it feel having Hope as a sister?"
"What kind of powers does Hope have?"
"Is it true that Hope defeated Malivore by herself?"
"How come you're not a Tribrid like your sister?"

My blood boiled as my rage rose gradually with each question that reached my ears. They were like a swarm of pestilent insects flying around me at a picnic. With each passing second...the more irritating they became. Each question being more obnoxious than the last. I felt trapped. Like a caged lion. I needed to get out...now. I gritted my fanged teeth as a low growl sounded from within me. My hands curled into tightly balled fists before I slammed them onto the table with a loud bang. The group around me went silent. "Hey, hey, hey! Back away! Back away!" Alaric demanded breaking through the crowd. "You never EVER surround a werewolf!" Alaric spat before I rose to my feet abruptly and stormed off. I let out a shout of anger before releasing a blast of magic making the candles go out as it pushed the doors open.

HERMIONE

A loud scream echoed throughout the assembly hall before I spotted Henrik making his way out of the room in a hurry and with anger written over his face. I furrowed my brows before looking around to see a giant group around the area where he used to be sitting. I looked back at Harry and Ron. "What the bloody was that all about?" Ron asked. "Perhaps he hates being compared?" I suggested. "Don't we all?" Ron asked. "Can't imagine being compared to one of the most powerful people in history....and have them be your sister." I stated as I looked in the direction that the Mikaelson had gone. "Maybe...he just needs some friends?" Harry asked. I looked at Harry with a smile. "That sounds like a wonderful idea, Harry! Let's go!" I said grabbing my things and hurrying after the boy. "Hermione, wait!" They boys called out as they ran after me.

I stood in the hall of Hogwarts and looked around before seeing the Mikaelson outside in the square sitting at the fountain looking at the water. I leaned against the entryway to the square watching him. Ron and Harry finally caught up to me. "Bloody hell, Hermione. When did you get so bloody fast?" Ron wheezed panting. I was too busy watching the boy at the fountain to bother answering the red-head's question.

The boy had his arms locked wrapped around his legs that he had brought up to his chest. I took a step forward before hearing him speak. Harry pulled me back, stopping me. "I don't think I can do this." Henrik said looking up into the sky. "I don't...think I can be...what you wanted me to. I can't...handle this. Everything was easier when you guys...when you guys were still here. At least then I could talk to you and actually get an answer. Hope...hasn't been the same since that day. I don't know why. But she just...doesn't feel like my sister anymore. She feels like a...a monster wearing her skin...a cheap copy of the real thing. I miss the Hope that used to paint with me. That used to run through forest with me when were wolves. That used to have fun with me. That actually cared. The one that used to be a sister." The boy stated.

"Why...why couldn't you...I wish..." He stammered lowering his head. "Hermione, I think we should leave him alone." Harry whispered to me. "Yeah, come on. Let's get out of here." Ron added. They pulled me away as I watched the boy with hurtful eyes.
