Forget Me Not

Hermione stared unemotionally out the window of the Hogwarts Express. She was sitting in an empty compartment, but she preferred it that way. Ever since her parents were killed she liked being alone.

FLASHBACK

Hermione was in her house, eating dinner with her parents. She noticed they were very tense and nervous.

"Mom, dad, what´s wrong? Why are you so nervous?" she asked, concerned.

Mr and Mrs Granger looked at each other and sighed.

"Hermione dear, we love you very much, you were like a daughter to us, but we have something to tell you." Mr Granger said.

"W-what´s wrong?" Hermione asked, her voice trembling. She seemed to miss the fact that here parents had just told her she was like a daughter to them.

"Honey, we´re not your real parents. You were adopted. You come from a family of rich purebloods." whispered Mrs Granger.

Hermione stared in shock. All those years, she had been living a lie.

"Why?" she whispered hoarsely.

Her "mother" looked down at the table. "We´re sorry sweety. "

CRASH

Hermiones parents looked frightened at each other, and rushed over to Hermione.

"Mum, Dad, what was that?"

"No time to explain darling, listen,  you have a brother out there, along with the rest of your family. It was our job to protect you. You need to find your brother" rushed Mrs Granger.

"How do I do that? How will I know-" she was cut off.

CRASH

"He has a pendant around his neck, shaped like a teardrop, just like the one you have. Remember it always seemed as if yours was somehow broken in half? Well his is the other half. That is the only way you will find him." whispered Mr Granger anxiously.

"Hermione, you have to get out of here! Hide here, and when you feel it is the right time, hold your pendant and say "Perufulus", then you will be transported out of here" he said.

"But-"

"Shhh!"

CRASH

Hermione was shoved into a hole in the wall, it was closed behind her and she could barely look out.

Her parents huddled together, frightened , just outside the hole.

A dark figure came gliding into the house, followed by many others.

"Where is she?" the first black-cloaked figure hissed menacingly. A large snake glided in beside him.

"W-we don't know what you are talking about" they said bravely, although they were quivering with fright.

"Crucio" The figure hissed.

Hermione watched from behind the hole, wide-eyed. She blinked, trying to convince herself this wasn't happening.

Her parents writhed and screamed on the floor, clearly in pain. "WHERE IS SHE?!?" Lord Voldemort hissed.

Her parents shook their heads silently, tears rolling down their cheeks.

"Avada Kadavra"

Hermione tried to scream, but found she couldn't. Her mouth was dry and her eyes were unable to produce any more tears.

Her parents slumped to the floor, and lay there motionless.

The dark figures turned and glided out.

Hermione sat, watching them go. Then she began to pound furiously on the wall, to get out to her parents. It wouldn't budge. She was motionless for a long time, not wanting to think about what happened. Finally she raised her shaking hands to her pendant

"Perufulus" she whispered into the night.

She felt herself being swished off, getting closer to her destination.
