CHAPTER ONE

"Let me go, you bloody bastards!", a blindfolded Hermione Granger shouted in anger as she tossed and turned in the wooden stool, she was sitting in. She was kicking her legs in the hopes that she can hit whoever it was that kidnapped her from her bookshop and law office.

"Well, well, well, always feisty as ever, Granger!", she heard a voice that was oddly familiar.

"Remove my blindfold you bloody coward and look me in the eye like a real man!", she demanded. She felt someone carefully lift the blindfold from her head. She opened her eyes and gritted her teeth.

"Malfoy! You death eater scum! Why did you take me!", she growled.

"My, my! How offensive. Let me tell you Granger that I no longer work for the death eaters. Hell! I wasn't even successful as one anyway. Besides, I work for the ministry of magic now", the blonde ferret smirked.

"Well, ministry of magic or not, why the hell did you kidnap me, you bloody ferret!", she tried her best to kick her childhood nemesis but her legs were too far away. Draco Malfoy just chuckled at her antics.

"You see Granger, the British ministry of magic, in cooperation with the Australian ministry, and of course the International Confederation of Wizards, want you to fulfill the prophecy. And since you didn't respond to our kind invitations, we had to take you by force!", Draco explained in that calm annoying voice of his.

"What the fuck are you talking about Malfoy? What prophecy? I demand -"

"There is a prophecy, Granger. Well, 4 prophecies actually. And all of them involve you!", Draco interrupted.

"You seem to have me confused for the Boy Who Lived. Prophecy, my arse. Besides, I don't believe in all that Divination bullshit!", she snarled.

"Merlin, Granger! I can't seem to recall you ever having a potty mouth. What ever happened to the little bushy-haired prim and proper know-it-all?", Draco said teasingly.

"Well, let's just say that being kidnapped makes one really angry", she said sarcastically.

"Alright, I'll let you go and I'll explain about the prophecies to you. But you have to calm down. This is really important, Granger", Draco Malfoy said in all seriousness.

"Fine", she took a deep breath to calm herself. When the ropes behind her were removed by one of her kidnappers, she tried to fight the man but immediately, two men gently took a hold of her arms and carefully led her to a seat behind a desk.

"We're not going to hurt you Granger, I promise. I am only doing this as a mission", Draco Malfoy took the seat across from her and showed her his auror badge. Okay, so the ferret is apparently telling the truth.

"Explain, Malfoy. I don't want to hear about the specifics of these four prophecies yet because I assume that it basically talks about the same thing or something along those lines. Just bloody tell me what the gist is all about!", she demanded in a much calmer voice this time.

"A few days after you left Britain, there was a prophecy about you made by Professor Trelawney. A few months after that first prophecy, another came this time from a goblin. Gringotts informed the ministry as soon as they heard it because this prophecy affects the entire existence of magic. A year later, an elder of a clan of house elves also had another prophecy. After some investigation by the unspeakables at the Department of Mysteries, they unearthed an ancient prophecy that existed at the time of the founders of Hogwarts", Draco started his explanation.
