Tremendous Sacrifice

Chapter 3

I woke up in the room of requirement and did not see Ginny or Luna. That scared me for a while not knowing where they were. I quickly got changed and ran out looking around the halls. I quickly walked down to the great Hall and there I saw them both. I ran up to them and give them a hug. It startled that that first but Luna asked,

"What is that for?"

"You two gave me quite scare. I didn't know you were. I was alone when I woke up, so many thoughts and memories were going through my mind." I said frightful.

"Oh Hermione we are so sorry. We should have left in note. It won't happen again I swear." Ginny apologized.

Luna wrapped her arms around me and smiled. I loved that my two friends were there for me. We sat down together and I sighed. We had to figure out our story for everyone. I looked over to Ginny and Luna and said,

"We need to figure out our stories."

"What are we going to say?" Ginny asked.

"I was thinking that we could be transfers from Beauxbaton. We all grew up with each other and are like sisters. Our families were on the light side and would not change sides no matter what. So they were attacked and we were told by our parents that if anything ever happened we would go to Hogwarts and see Dumbledore. All we need is to figure out names." I explained.

"Wow, Mione you really figured it out." Ginny said impressed.

"Thanks so do you guys want to keep your first names and just change your last names?" I asked.

"I want to be Ginny Vixen." Ginny said.

I smiled to her and then looked to Luna. She had a smile and said,

"I am going to be Luna Arabian and you Hermione?" Luna asked.

I thought about it and it just came to me. I smiled to the girls and said,

"My name will be Hermione Tyto."

They looked over to Dumbledore at the head of the table and smiled. He nodded toward us. We all know by now that Dumbledore has eyes and ears everywhere. He knows everything that goes on in the school. So he already overheard our little talk about our back story.

We waited a far from the first years. We would wait for the first years to be sorted and then Dumbledore would announce our arrival. I looked at how excited and nervous the first years were. I remember how that was me when I was a first year. I looked down at my body and was not used to not seeing all the scars. I had to glam them to be a part of Beauxbaton. Ginny smiled to the girls and whispered,

"We need to play the part of the Beauxbatons. So, the things I remember of them was that they always traveled in a group of three or more. So, I will be on Hermione's left and Luna be on here right."

"Why do I have to be in the middle and center of attention?" I asked.

"Because you are the strongest of us all. It is important to show that. That you are the leader of this group and we are not to be messed with." Ginny explained.

I just sighed and stood in the middle of the girls. Ginny was on my left and Luna on my right. It was weird being in the middle. When I was with Harry and Ron, it was always Harry in the middle. We listened for our sign to enter.

*Marauder's POV*

Dumbledore stood at the stand and started his speech,

"Welcome back everyone and welcome to our new students. I hope that this year you find everything you deserve. I have an important announcement to make but first let me remind everyone that the forbidden forest is off limits and no student is allowed in there." He looked over the Gryffindor table and the Marauders grinned. "Now for my announcement. I am pleased to say that we have transfers coming to Hogwarts all away from Beauxbaton's academy. So if we can give a warm welcome to Miss Vixen, Miss Tyto, and Miss Arabian.

Remus looked at the guys and whispered,

"Their last names means fox, owl, and horse. I have never heard about transfers coming now."

"That is strange. But I heard that Beauxbaton academy has some hot women." Sirius spoke up.

Right then the doors opened and the three transfers walked in their Beauxbaton's blue uniform. Everyone stayed quiet. No one knew what to say. They looked at the girls in shock. Sirius could not keep his eyes off of the girl in the middle with the brunette hair.

"She is stunning!" Sirius said out loud by accident.

James and Remus smirked at Sirius.

*Hermione's POV*

I heard someone say that one of us were stunning. I looked over to the Gryffindor table and winked at where the source was. It surprised me that I winked at Sirius Black. He had his mouth open and did not know what to say. It was like I stunned him or something. We got up to the front and waited for our names to be called.

"Miss Luna Arabian." McGonagall called.

Luna skipped up and sat down on the stull. She was smiling the whole time. You could tell that the hat was taking it's time with her. Right then the hat opened it's mouth and screamed,

"GRYFFINDOR!"

I smiled to Luna. It was always her dream to be in Gryffindor with her friends. She gave Ginny and me a hug and went over to Gryffindor's table. They were cheering the loudest of the whole hall.

"Miss Vixen."

Ginny looked at me nervous and walked up to the hat. She sat up straight and let the hat decide her fate. If you did not know Ginny then you would never have known that she was terrified on what house she was going to be put into.

"GRYFFINDOR!" The hat screamed.

Ginny hopped down and gave me a hug and went to sit with Luna. I smirked to my two best friends and then waited for my name to be called.

"Miss Tyto."

I walked up to the hat with confidence. I sat down and waited for the voice in my head.

Well, it seems like just like your friends that I have already sorted you. You are from the future. It is nice to meet you again Miss Granger. It seems that you belong in many different houses. You are intelligent to be in Ravenclaw, there is bravery and loyalty to your friends and the ones you care for to be in Gryffindor. But it seems that I placed you in Gryffindor in the future. So I think it would be best to go a different way.

I looked around scared and did not know what to say to the hat. He was planning something and I did not know what he had in mind. Right then the hat spoke up and said,
