"Fine" one of the Aurors answered, they pulled out their cuffs and put them on Hermione, that's when the door opened and a fuming Headmistress entered

"What is the meaning of this?!" She yelled

"Ms. McGonagall—"

"Headmistress" she corrected harshly

"Headmistress McGonagall" they corrected themselves "Mr. Malfoy and Mr. Zabini have violated their parole and Miss Granger's refusal to their arrest has made her an accomplice, we will be escorting them to the ministry where you can claim them after they have been processed" the Auror answered with finality

The two Aurors dissaperated with the three students, they landed in the DMLE and were shoved into a holding cell

"Pathetic, sticking your neck out for two deatheaters" one of the Aurors spat

Hermione rolled her eyes and walked away

"I'm talking to you" they sneered

"And I'm ignoring you" Hermione muttered, sliding down the stone cold wall and groaned, her head pulsing, she brought her hand to her forehead and felt the sticky substance on her fingers

"For the brightest witch of the age, that was a very stupid move" Blaise stated

Hermione shrugged, still holding her head while trying get the room to stop spinning so she wouldn't lose her stomach

"I may have a concussion..." she said

"You may have a concussion? Of bloody course you do you daft witch" Draco spat

"Oi sod off will you?" Hermione said "I made sure that the two of you didn't end up in Azkaban again"

"How did you possibly know that?" Draco asked annoyed

"Do you think that if I wasn't here, the two of you would be here and not on your way to the island?" She asked them

Draco stayed silent, she had a point, if the daft witch hadn't stood up for them, he and Blaise would be on their way to Azkaban

"Thought so" she mumbled

The three of them stayed silent, Hermione shivered with the cold and rubbed her exposed legs and wrapped her arms around her knees

"Y-You do ballet?" Blaise finally asked

"Looks that way doesn't it?" She stated, looking down at her dirty pointe shoes

"How long?" He asked

"Since I was four" Hermione shrugged

Both wizards looked at one another, neither knew what else to say, it was believed that only Purebloods knew how to dance ballet, knowing that a muggleborn knew how to do such a delicate thing chipped off even more of their beliefs

An Auror came and fetched Hermione

"Come on I don't have all night" they spat

"I'll take as long as I bloody want" Hermione said, they enter the room and dragged her up, they dragged her out of the room while she swore under her breath

They forced her into a chair and began processing her

"Name?"

"Hermione Jean Granger"

"Age?"

"Eighteen"

"Birthday?"

"September 19, 1979"

"Wand?"

"10¾" long, vine wood, dragon heartstring"

"Blood Status?"

"Is that necessary?" She asked offended

"Blood Status?" they asked again

"Muggleborn"

This went on for a few hours, she would be asked questions and she answered, they waved their wand to make sure she wasn't under the Imperius Curse which compelled her to save the two Deatheaters

"For the thousandth time...no they didn't put me under the Imperius Curse to save them, I saved them on my own because Cormac McLaggen doesn't understand the concept of rejection" Hermione answered annoyed

"But why would you willingly save—"

"Oh for the love of Godric Gryffindor" she groaned in annoyance "NO! Draco Malfoy and Blaise Zabini didn't put me under any curse to save them, if it hadn't been for them Cormac McLaggen would have possibly assaulted me so get your head out of your arse and realize that you have arrested the wrong people!" She yelled, slamming her hand on the desk and knocking over a quill holder

"I suggested you control yourself Miss Granger unless you want to spend a night in the cell" the Auror ordered

"Wouldn't be the first time" she muttered "look, are we done? Can I go? I'm cold and dirty and would really like to put on some pants" Hermione said

"Your magic will be put under supervision and you will be let off with a warning this time" they said, they put a silver cuff on her wielding hand and she began filling out the discharge papers

She saw the headmistress waiting for them, she was the first one to emerge

"Miss Granger, I hope everything was alright?"

"As good as it can be in a holding cell"

They were joined by Draco Malfoy a few minutes later along with Blaise Zabini

"Let's get you back to the castle" the headmistress said, leading them all to the Floo, they were emerged by the green flames and entered the Headmistress office, the head girl was pacing and Cormac McLaggen was sitting on one of the chairs with his father staring very disappointed in him

"Mr. Malfoy, Mr. Zabini, I suggest you retire to your dorms, ten points will be awarded to Slytherin for helping Miss Granger, and twenty points will be removed from Gryffindor regarding Mr. McLaggen's rude behaviour, and the discussion of expulsion will be needed" she said, Cormac began to protest but his father glared at him

"Miss Weasley, please escort Miss Granger to the infirmary so that she could get checked out" the headmistress ordered

Ginny quickly nodded, she walked up to Hermione and let her out of the office

"Are you alright?" Ginny asked worriedly

Hermione brought up her hand and showed her the silver cuff

"I'm now under surveillance by the ministry"

"That was really stupid" Ginny said

"I have my moments"

The two girls continued their way to the infirmary, the matron was muttering under her breath about the fact that classes hadn't even started and students were already occupying the beds

"You can sleep Miss Granger, Merlin knows how bad that idiotic toad hit you, I will wake you in a few hours, Miss Weasley you can leave"

Ginny squeezed Hermione's hand before exiting the infirmary

"Now dear, let us get you into more comfortable robes"
