Skip the holidays and the whole year of school. (Half Blood Prince) Dumbledore DID Die.

Hermione POV

I was sat in my room packing all the things I might need to be gone for six months. I was going with Potter and Weasley to help them destroy Horcruxes. I was really gonna lead them the wrong way and not help them.

I walked down the stairs and everyone was stood there. Narcissa, Lucius, Bella, Rudolphus, Tonks, Draco, Blaise and Ginny. I hugged Narcissa first.

"Be safe baby girl." She whispered to me.

"Ok." I said.

I hugged Lucius next.

"Not gonna be the same without you." He said.

"It's not gonna be fun without you." I replied.

Then Bella.

"If they become to much to handle you remember the spells I taught you?" She asked. I chuckled a bit.

"Yes." I replied.

Then Rudolphus.

"Be careful." He said.

"I will."

It was Tonks' turn.

"Kick some Arse." She said.

"Will do."

It was Draco's turn.

"Gonna miss you sunshine." He said.

I chuckled and faked a grunted 'Piss off' he laughed.

Then Blaise.

"Who am I going to give a coffee to in the morning?" He asked.

"Ginny might need it when I'm gone. Look after her for me?" I asked.

"Promise." He replied.

Finally it was Ginny's turn.

"Mione when I go back to Hogwarts I'm gonna be all alone." She said.

"No you have Draco and Blaise. In the morning in a few classes and then you can meet up every night." I told her.

"It won't be the same without you though." She said.

"I know Gin." I said. I took a step back and said one last goodbye for six months and then apperated away. I apperated to where I was meeting Potter and Weasley.

In the two months we found the locket. But we couldn't destroy it until we had the Sword of Griffindoor. Which we 'couldn't' find.

In the third and fourth month we found Helga Hufflepuffs cup. But couldn't destroy it with out a Basilisk fang.

In the fifth month they went looking for Rowena Ravenclaws lost diadem. But they had 'no' idea where it could be. I did they didn't.

In the final month we discovered that Nagini, the Dark Lords snake, was a Horcrux.

In the final month...

We were camping out in the woods. I has put up a barrier around the tent.

We were all out looking for fire wood.

I heard a crack. My head shot up. I was looking for where the noise came from. It happened again. Snatchers. Scabior came out from behind a large tree. He stood a few meters away from me.

"Hello Beautiful." He said.

Potter and Weasley came to where I was stood.

"What are you waiting for snatch 'em." He said.

Other snatchers came out from behind the tree. And ran towards us. I ran away from them. They chased us for a good half hour before they were surrounded by them.

Scabior took one good look at Harry before he realised who he was.

"Well we better take you in." He said. A snatcher held both my arms above my head and took my bag off me.

He pushed me to walk. So I did.

Potter and Weasley were resting against them.

"Stop struggling or thy are gonna hurt you." I said to them. We was walking for about an hour. Before we stood outside a Manor. I realised that we were stood outside Malfoy Manor.

I stopped myself from jumping up and down and smiling. We were pushed up to the gated where Bella was stood.

"Ahhh bring them in." She said.

"Where do you want them?" Scabior asked.

"Put the boys in the cellar. We're gonna have a little chat girl to girl." Bella said. Lucius grabbed the boys and their wands and dragged them down to the cellar.

"Get out." Bella said to all of the snatchers.

They all walked out leaving me with the Malfoy's (Narcissa and Lucius) and the Lestrange's (Bella and Rudolphus). As soon as there was no one in sight I was pulled into a hug from all four of them.

"How did it go?" Bella asked.

"We found The locket, the cup, we couldn't find the diadem and the last one is Nagini the snake. But we haven't destroyed any of them." I told them.

"That is excellent." Rudolphus said.

"How is Ginny, Blaise and Draco?" I asked.

"They haven't smiled in 6 months. You should go and see them before the war." Narcissa said.

"I will." I said.

We were talking for a few more minutes before Potter and Weasley broke out. They grabbed me and their wands before they apperated away.

We landed in Hogsmeade. An ear splitting alarm set off. Death eaters started looking for us before there was a mother alarm somewhere else. We got up and started walking out of where we were hiding.

"Potter in here." Came an old mans voice.

We all walked in and down the stairs. That man looked like Dumbledore. It might be is brother.

"What are you doing here?" He bellowed.

"We need to get into Hogwarts." I said.

"There may be a Horcrux inside." I explained. "Rowena Ravenclaws Diadem. We could ask The Grey Lady, Rowena's Daughter." I said.

"Yeah we really need to get into the castle." Potter said.

The man (Abafourth) turned to a painting of his sister (Ariana).

"You know what you need to do." He said to the painting.

She turned around and walked further back into the painting until she was gone.

"Where is she going?" Weasley asked.

"You'll see." Is all he said.

After five minutes she started to come back bus she had someone with her. When they reached the front of the painting the portrait opened. Neville Longbottom was stood there.

"Let's go." He said.

We all followed him through the tunnel.

"Let's have a bit of fun shall we?" He said.

He opened the portrait door.

"Hey guys I got a surprise for you all."

He said.

"Is it Abafourths cooking again?" Seamus said in his Irish accent.

Neville moved out of the way and everyone stood up and clapped as we got out of the portrait.

Potter explained that there is a horcrux hidden here in the castle. Ginny came running in.

"He know. Snape knows that Harry has been spotted." She said to the others. I ran over to her and hugged her.

"Wait till the boys see you." She whispered in my ear.
