Ask and u shall recieve.

After Hermione and Harry saved Sirius the last few weeks of Hogwarts were relatively carfree. They explained everything to ron.

The trio spoke the entire ride, about halfway through Harry received a letter from Sirius and Ron got the owl.

"Hermione! Oh we've missed you so much!" Hermione's mother engulfed her in a hug the moment she crossed the barrier.

"Missed you too mum." she said with a smile. They stared towards a strange grey box? No it wasn't the shape of a box.

What the fuck is that contraption? No! Don't put me in there! I looks fucking deadly! No!

Hermione ignored the hissing and sat me and my cage in before getting in herself.

"What's wrong with your cat hermione?" her mother asked, seeing the way he reacted.

She frowned, "well, he is a magical pet, he's a kneezel, I suppose he's never been in a car before." she looked at the cat who seemed to slightly calm down as she spoke.

Car, fucking hell, what a stupid name. What is this thing even fo- holy shit! Why is it moving

Hermione looked over at the distressed cat and laughed. After a few seconds he calmed down a bit. She reached out to pet him and as usual he backed away and sent her a look so similar to a glare.

After the car ride was finally over, Hermione brought me up the stairs to her room.

Nooo please don't lock me in here. Sure it's better than that death trap but come onnnnn.

Hermione ignored his consistent meowing and closed the door behind her.

I waited a few minutes before changing back and stretching.

"Oh My God!" The moment she made a noise I quickly turned into my cat form. Hermione stood in her doorway staring at her 'cat' with wide eyes.

"Oh my god."

"Everything okay hermione?" her mom shouted up the stairs.

"Uhm, y-yep. All fine!" She quickly closed and locked her door then grabbed her wand.

"Oh my god."

Welp, too late now, I cant obliviate her, she'd forget too much.

I turned back into human form and put my hands up in front of her.

"Oh my god!" she whisper yelled. "Who are you?!"

"Im Regulus black, Sirius' younger brother."

"And why should I believe you?" she challenged.

I rolled my eyes. "Maybe cuz I've been working with Sirius all year to get rid of that scum pettigrew. Oh, and." I turned my hand showing the black family ring.

She still seemed iffy but lowered her wand none-the-less.

"Well, why are you a cat?"

"Cuz Voldemort would kill me if he knew I was alive." I flashed her a proud smile but she seemed rather unimpressed. "Oh of course you're not all that impressed, let me guess, that's not something to be happy about and whatever I did was really reckless?" I raised my brow.

"I-" she frowned, "i wasn't going to say that."

"Key, sure,"

She sighed, "well, what do you have against pettigrew?"

"Uhm, he put Sirius in Azkaban for 12 years. I'm pretty sure I would rather live with my parents again than spend one year there. And he's the reason James is dead."

"And Lily," she added.

"Hmm?"

"You just said James Potter, Lily died too."

"Oh, right."

Hermione walked over to her bed and sat down.

"Look, you can't tell harry and ron, or anyone."

She frowned, "what about teachers, like, professor mcgonagall, or professor dumbledore?"

I shook my head, "no. especially not dumbledore. Honestly, I wouldn't have even told Sirius if I could have gotten pettigrew myself." she looked confused so I sighed and sat on the floor.

"I spent years planning everything, I knew how to trick Pettigrew into confessing and then I'd send him into the ministry anonymously, then Sirius would be free, but he escaped and I ended up working with him. Luckily i can still do the second part, as long as no one else knows i'm still alive,"

"What's the second part? Why can't anyone know?"

"I know some things, dark things, and I don't want anyone else to have to carry those burdens. And in, hopefully, a year or so, Voldemort won't exist."

Her eyes widened, "you know how to kill him?!"

"Sorta, but you can't tell anyone I won't let anymore people get hurt."

I could tell she was thinking and after a moment or two she nodded. "Fine, but what if something happens? And what about sirius?"

I thought for a moment before pulling off the black family ring, "do you have a bracelet or something that you wear all the time?"

She nodded and pulled off a bracelet with an otter pennant. "But why does that matter?"

"Just lemme see it," she handed it to me and I sat then side by side and waved my wand. They glowed purple and went back to normal. "Now if you need me, just put pressure on the otter for five seconds, I'll be on my way. But only if it's important, and don't tell Sirius about it, he has a way of guilt tripping people into doing what he wants."

I looked at the clock on her wall and saw that it was 8:47

"Now, i have to go,"

"Wait, if i hadn't found out were you just going to leave and let me think you just disappeared?"

"Uhh, yeah." I nodded and put my ring back on before turning into a cat and lumping out her window and scaling down the tree
