Slytherin Princess (editing)

Slytherin Princess

Hermione had definitely changed a lot since the battle, in both appearance and personality.

Her frizzy brown hair had become soft blonde curls. Her skin had become clear and pale, making her red lips stand out. But what stood out the most was her electric green eyes.

Hermione had been confused when she had looked in the mirror one day in the Summer to find that her previously brown eyes had changed their colour. That was, until her mother explained it all.

-flashback-

"You see,honey," began her mum, "I think I should have told you this sooner, but you're a pure blood. And somehow we are related to Salazar Slytherin. Salazar left a spell upon his family, so that every female at a random time in their lives will make a sudden change, and will look and act differently. I suppose that now is the time for you, dear."

Hermione's POV

A brown owl flew through my open bedroom window. It carried a large yet surprisingly light-weight box and an envelope, both had the Hogwarts crest. A couple of days before I had received a letter from headmistress Mcgonagall saying that all previous seventh years could come back to Hogwarts to re-do their seventh year.

I of course accepted, although Harry and Ron weren't going. I was really looking forward to seeing Ginny, who would obviously still be there as she was a year younger than me.

I opened the letter, and read it excitedly.

Dear Miss Granger,

I recently received your letter, and since you would like to return to Hogwarts, I have sent you something which has been sent to every returning 'eighth year'-the sorting hat. Every eighth year who is returning must be resorted.

Your's sincerely,

Headmistress Mcgonagall.

I opened the box excitedly, pulling out the old and glorious Hogwarts sorting hat.

"Ah, Miss Granger." whispered the sorting hat as I placed it atop my head.

"You still have that Gryffindor courage,I see.So brave,strong...but what is this?Sly,cunning,dark.Mysterious,a story to tell.Wherever did the old Hermione go?Hmmmm,I'd say...SLYTHERIN!"

I wasn't bothered at all by this,I had definitely changed,anyone could tell.

The problem was:how was I going to fit in?
