Prologue
“MUDBLOODS OUTLAWED” was written in big bold black letters printed across the top of the Daily Prophet. The papers fell from my hands as I collapsed into the chair under me, I knew people were gathering around and asking me questions, but I couldn’t hear them. I looked into the faces of Harry and Ron, I could see that their mouths were moving but no sound was coming through. I knew my mind had went into shock, but I still couldn’t function. This was it, the final proof that Voldemort had taken over the Ministry, completely!
When I finally got all my senses back, everyone was already in a screaming match. Harry and Ron were yelling at Mr. Weasley, asking how they could do this. Mrs. Weasley was sitting in the chair in front of me with tears in her eyes. I guess she was wondering what my future and the future of some of our friends would turn out to be. I was the only Muggleborn in our immediate group, along with being the poster child for Muggleborns since I decided to become Harry Potter’s best friend. I slowly stood from the chair I had been sitting in, this grabbing everybody’s attention, the noise slowly drowned out by silence. “I’m going to my room”, were the only words I could manage before I quietly left the kitchen. I watched my movements very aware not to wake the manic portrait of Sirius’s mother; I made it to the third landing which Ron, Harry and I shared, each getting our own room but close enough to each other in case of emergencies.
I stepped into my bedroom, and my eyes scanned the area before I entered. Taking in my surroundings I slowly took it in from one side to the other. I saw my everyday items; my bed, desk, chair, and my wardrobe closet. Everything seemed normal yet I knew that everything was about to change. I collapsed into my mattress and cried with all the strength I had in me, and said goodbye to the Wizarding World as I knew it. I was no longer a legal citizen of my own world.
Later that night I sat on my bed reading the article for must have been the fiftieth time, there was no way around it, Muggleborns were to show at the Ministry for processing and then transferring. Our new home was to be Azkaban, we were now lower than the scum of the Wizarding World. I had just thrown the paper on the floor in frustration, when a knock sounded on my door. “Hermione may I come in? It’s Gin.”, of course I knew it was Gin by her voice, “Come on in”. There was no point in trying to keep out my best friend, she might be a pureblood but in the eyes of society she was already labeled a Bloodtraitor.
“Hermione, are you ok? You’ve been up here for hours, we’re worried about you especially Ronald.” Gin said as she came to sit with me on my bed. Ronald and I had finally started dating after 6th year. When Dumbledoor died we didn’t see the point in waiting any longer. It had been three weeks since that day.
“No Gin, I am not ok! I am going to be processed, transferred, and locked in cage just like an animal up for slaughter”, I snapped. I quickly put my head down, “I’m sorry Gin, I didn’t mean to snap at you. With this news I am just not myself. I am just so scared”, I finished the sentence by bursting into tears.
“I’m sorry Hermione, we will figure something out. You three are the Golden Trio, you’re always come up with something”, Gin tried to comfort me as she held me as I cried into her neck.
This brought an idea to my head. Ginny was right we were the Golden Trio, if anyone could figure a way out of this it was us. “Ginny I think I just came up with an idea.” I snapped up so quickly I accidently head-butted Ginny under the chin. It didn’t faze me as I began to gather items around my room; parchment, quill, and my cauldron.
“Quick! Get Snape, Harry, Ron, and Lupin. I think I might have found a loop hole.” I know I looked like I had gone insane but I really think I am on to something here.
Gin must have gone and gathered everyone because soon I was getting pulled out of my thoughts by Harry and Ron gathering me in one of our famous groups’ hugs. “Ok Hermione, so what is this plan of yours that Ginny made us all come up here?” Harry quickly interrogated after the hug.
“Yes, Ms. Granger please do inform us to this revolution to try to get you out of Azkaban, it better be worth my time I was in the middle of a new potion.” Snape snarled as usual, I just rolled my eyes at his comment.
“Look with the expertise of all of us; I believe I have come up with a plan to hide me in plain sight.” I scanned the faced to see their expression.
“Continue”, again another snarl from Snape, earning him another roll of my eyes as I continued on. “As I was saying, I am going to transform myself into a new person; new characteristics new walk, new talk, a complete new history. An all new person made out of thin air, but with all the characteristics of a pureblood from a different country.”
They all stared at me for a while each considering the possibility. It was Lupin the first to speak up, “And where do we exactly come in in this situation?”
“Snape is a potions master; both you, him and Ron are all pureblood and know their traditions and manners. Snape and you are both great and Defense Against the Dark Arts and no offense to Ron but Harry would be a tougher opponent and I must be able to hold my ground among the purebloods.”
Harry, Ron and Lupin were slowly nodding their heads, almost agreeing this was a shot to be taken. Snape though, he looked like he lacked convincing, “You know with the potions you’re going to take to change characteristics such as; bone structure, voice, and figure, they will be very painful and very permanent. Once you change you can never come back.”
This is one of the things I had yet to consider, “ I’ll be damned if I will sit behind bars like a caged animal while a war is being fought outside. A war where my loved ones and friends are dying, if changing how I look and sound is one of the sacrifices I have to make to help then it will be one I am willing to make.”
In one of the rarest moments a smirk graced the face of Snape, “Ok, Hermione where do we start?” I don’t know exactly what happened but I think I just earned the friendship and respect of Severus Snape. “First is first we need to come up with a background. Who am I, where am I from, who are my parents, Ect. Ect. Ect. Y’all get what I’m trying to say.”
“Well then I believe this offers my expertise,” Snape being the first to step up.
It had been two months from that day, and it was also the last day as Hermione Granger. Today was the day I said my goodbyes to the rest of the occupants of 12 Grimmauld Place. Only a handful of people knew of what was going to be happening to me in a few hours. It was a week before Hogwarts started and it would take three days for me to completely recover after tonight’s transformation. Only the people that helped with the exception of Ginny knew. To the rest of the occupants I was just going into hiding to an unplottable place. It was hard to leave the house, I regret turning back before we apparated away. Now I held to potion in my hand, I had everything else memorized from manners to traditions to a new walk and new habits. I even had my entire 18 years remade in my mind, but not as Hermione Granger as Esperanza Sendejo. I am a transfer student from Bauxbton academy, my family is based off in Spain, and I am in my final year. My father being transferred from the Spanish Ministry to the English Ministry. I am to be put into Slytherin with the other “Baby Deatheaters”. I was in Snape’s home, it was located in a small muggle town away from the Wizarding World, he thought it would be the perfect place for my transformation and recovery. I looked over my cup to Snape, I couldn’t believe my eyes, it almost looked like pride shown through his . I lifted my cup as a cheers to him, and lifted it to my lips, “Goodbye Hermione” was the last thing I heard before I downed the contents of the glass and went into immediate excruciating pain. I don’t know for how long I laid on the floor screaming and withering in agony, but when I came to I was in a warm bed and light was shining through the windows. I felt a stroke of panic as I began to realize I did not know where I was, my surroundings were completely new to me. “Snape! Snape! Sssssnnnnnaaaappppeeee!” I started frantically. The door soon flew open and there stood Snape. “Shhhh Shhhh Shhh it ok you’re in my house, in my guest room.” He slowly started towards me, after grabbing a mirror off the dresser. “You have been asleep for two days, your transformation is complete do you want to see the finished product.”
“Yes, please.” I paused my own voice sounded foreign to me, that would take some time to get use too. He slowly lifted the mirror so that it was level to my face and what I saw was absolutely better than I could ever imagine, my skin tone was a lovely copper with a soft tan. My face was a beautiful heart shape, with high cheek bones and a pointed chin with a slight dimple. My eyebrows had a high arch and were thinner than I would normally have them, and my eyes were big and almond shape and a lovely hazel honey color. My hair was a beautiful auburn with red and blonde highlights and fell completely straight to the end of my ribs. “Snape can I try to stand and see the rest of me?”, my voice was definitely different it had a very distinct Spanish accent to it.
“I think it might be wise to try to stand on your new legs, here let me help you out,” Snape was actually scaring me a little, he was never this nice to anyone. He slowly came around to my right side and lifted my arm over his shoulder, as I swung my legs around the edge of the bed. As I start to put weight on my legs, I could feel my knees weren’t going to hold, so I made the attempt to sit back down. When I felt a sharp jerk on my arm, “No you are going to do this now Esperanza!”, Snape all but yelled at me. I made another attempt, my limbs were still not use to the weight or the new height, but it was becoming easier, I was just very awkward. Within the next hour and a half, I had gotten the hang of my new frame, I was still awkward and clumsy, tripping over myself mostly, but I was now able to walk on my own without any help from Snape.
“Now that you can actually walk, we must spend the next four days making sure you show no trace of Hermione Granger. Shall we begin?” Snape said sitting from his current position on my bed. I considered giving him a smartass answer, somewhere along the lines of ‘No thanks, I think I’ll take the rest of the day off Snape.’, but I held my tongue and with a quick nod of my head. The drilling continued.
