Chapter 19 Plans

"The werewolves of our world are being murdered…"

"How could they be murdered? If they were the notice of the deaths would not be in the Obituaries but the main page?" Cho Chang shouted out above the din.

"Silence!" Albus thundered out holding his hand up for silence. "A good question Miss Chang. The Prophet is in control of the Ministry and everyone knows the current Minister's views of werewolves."

Bill Weasley raised his hand up looking nervous for in the Battle of the Astronomy tower he had been injured by the unchanged werewolf Fenir Greyback and had wolfish tendencies since then. "The Minister pledged his support for Hermione's research Albus. I find it unlikely that he would command the Aurours to take out werewolves. After all werewolves have always been a part of our world."

"A fair point to be considered Bill. And how are they treated by our world? Unrecognized as beings and persona non grata. A wizard or witch giving aid or food in clothing is promised a stint is Azkaban if caught. They change one night a month and yet vampires of our world are granted full status and rights and they do not change at all." Albus replied back voice echoing in the room.

Kingsley joined the old Headmaster and healer. "My friends I questioned that very fact to the Minister the night that the progeny of the werewolf was found not to be tainted. He told me that he gave support only because of that damnable Snape."

Everyone turned trying to locate the man in question and suddenly found him standing next to the three wizards with Hermione by his side. "I merely told him that he should rethink his options as Mistress Granger is smarter than him. I may have inferred that if he did not then I would reveal his questionable political activities. If you knew what I know then he would not be leading the Ministry. He is a man with blood on his hands."

Healer Thywaite spoke up. "This is all very interesting but I have proof positive that at least one was murdered. My closest friend was Jarvis Daly a werewolf. He Apparated directly into my home screaming in pain. How he managed to do that I'll never know but his last words was that he was attacked by two masked men with silver ice cold eyes and something was forced into his mouth." He looked to the gathered witches and they heard his voice break as he continued his tale. "And his death was the most traumatic and agonizing one that I have ever seen over my long career as a Healer. I immediately took him to Mungo's and contacted Law Enforcement. The two wizards that arrived and flashed their badges at me had silver ice cold eyes. They listened to my account and put his death down due to natural causes and suggested that I do not look further into it if I knew what was good for me. They forced me to sign a death certificate stating that. I approached Albus because he is involved with the research of werewolves."

Thywaite looked intensely his audience pleased that they hung on his every word. "With the assistance of my wife who is a Medi-Witch I found that all of Jarvis's blood was dried up in thick black crystallized flakes. Nothing I know of does that. When I opened his stomach I found this." Holding up a phial filled to the top with very small silver like beads. "My wife immediately recognized them as she loves jewelry from some sort of Indian tribe in America. I don't know if that is true. She says the beads are known as Liquid Silver."

A shocked gasp of "Oh Merlin!" Echoed out in the room and everyone looked to the source.

Thywaite turned to the young witch standing with him. "Mistress Granger have you seen this before?"

Hermione moved away from Severus and spoke. "I have Healer Thywaite when I investigated what kills a werewolf early in my research and I can prove that it was murder if I would be allowed to gather a few things."

Albus grabbed up Hermione's hand. "Go and be quick as you can." Letting it go.

The room watched as she turned her heal and Apparated away.

The room filled with heated discussion as the group waited her return.

Draco faced Harry. "Love you are in danger. You saw the look on Hermione."

Harry discretely patted his partner's hand. "It seems so Draco but do not worry. I am safest at the castle unlike my fellow werewolves."

Hermione arrived back ten minutes later and addressed the group. "I hate to ask this but it must be done. I require a Secrecy vow from all not to reveal what I show you tonight."

The room sounded out with a loud aye and everyone felt the Majics slip about them for a moment and fade.

"I need a werewolf and one not afflicted." Hermione spoke out to the group. "I promise that there will be no harm done to you. I will only draw blood. I remind you that everyone is under Secrecy."

The group waited.

Draco pulled Harry back. "Wait Love. If no one comes forward then I will allow you to go."

Soon a witch approached Hermione. "I was bitten twenty years ago and my family and I have hidden the fact that I am afflicted. I am not registered." She whispered.

"You are a brave witch." Severus told her.

"So we have a werewolf. I need another not afflicted." Hermione spoke out to the group and watched Arthur Weasley walked up.

"Everyone here knows that I am not a werewolf." Arthur stated out hearing the "Ayes" from the group.

Hermione conjured up a chair. "Sit down Arthur. I am going to draw a small amount of blood and all you will feel is a prick."

The group watched in fascination as she pulled up his robe showing his arm before tying something above his elbow as she taped his arm. Soon everyone watched bright red blood flow and filled a tube halfway.

"Is this the way the Muggles get blood Hermione?" Watching the thin needle slide into his arm in fascination as his blood flow into the tube.

She chuckled. "It is Arthur."

Hermione popped the cover off the tube. "I will add Healer Thywaite's Liquid Silver to the blood and pass it down so you can see the reaction." Pouring in half the tube of small beads into the tube of blood and watched for a reaction. As she expected there was none. "Everyone look to what the blood revealed. None of the dark crusty flakes that Healer Thywaite identified is present indicating that this is not werewolf blood."

She sat the witch down speaking soft reassuring words and drew a half tube of blood. "You will not see the reaction but if those small beads are made of silver you will see the difference."

Healer Thywaite watched his sample to the blood and watched it boil for a moment and turned into hard flaky crusty flakes. He passed down the phial to the gathered so they could see it themselves.

The group looked to Albus. "My friends we need to seek them out and place them somewhere safe. Are you with me?"

"Aye!" A resounding response filed the room.

"You will hear from your cell leaders soon and thank you." Albus spoke out and watched the group break up and leave. He turned to Healer Thywaite, Severus, and Hermione. "Prejudice is strong and I was not sure how the vote would go."

Albus turned his attention to the werewolf witch. "Come with me my dear. I will get you to a safe place. Harry please join us." Leaving the room with the witch and wizard.

Hermione and Severus stood alone and Draco joined them. "Is Harry in danger?"

"Not now Draco but in time he will be. The castle should be safe enough for now." Severus replied.

Hermione grabbed the length of blonde hair gathered in a pony tail tied up with a bow and promptly cut half of it off.

"What the Hell Hermione!" Draco shouted out eyeing the long strands of his hair in her hands.

"I'm sorry Draco. You are my baseline now as you have not yet turned in the full moon. Tell me how much do you weigh?" Asking in interest.

"Fifteen stone Hermione and none of it fat." Draco huffed out. "You've seen me naked before."

"Thank you Draco for your sample." Hermione lightly replied and watch as the wizard skulk away muttering. "I have a reputation to maintain you know."

"I remind you that you are a wizard Draco. You can grow it back." She called out.

She heard the door slam shut behind him leaving them alone.

Severus sensed her need and pulled her into his arms and kissed the top of her head. "Not another Dark wizard to deal with Hermione."

"I know Severus but this is worse in a way. How am I going to research when all of my day is taken up, not to mention yours?" She moaned out.

"Albus will find a way for us Hermione. Go back to the castle and do not worry of research tonight. I have something that I need to take care of and then I'll join you for a short time before the day begins."

"You know where the Liquid Beads came from?" She asked.

Severus kissed her gently. "I'm going to pursue it now. Go Lioness and wait for me. I'll join you in your room shortly."

He felt her pull away from him and looked for a moment before she turned her heal and Apparated away.

He looked to the door. "Godson you are a pathetic spy. Come in here now." He demanded.

Draco sauntered in not looking guilty. "I never knew you had it in you to be so gentle Godfather. It hints of a Hufflepuff tendency."

"Forget that Draco. Mundungus slinked out before the results of the blood." Severus growled out. "Use your network and find him so I can have a chat."

"Meet me in the Library Godfather and consider it done." Draco replied and left the room leaving his Godfather alone.

Hermione went arrived in her chambers and undressed to take a bath. Filling the tub up with hot water she stepped into it sighing out in pleasure. She noticed the forgotten parchment at the rim and opened it.

My Dearest Hermione…

The night spent with you ranks to one of the best moments of my existence. I won't say life because there has never been that for me. But with you I think that I can begin to live life versus just living. And it is because that you accept me as I am and you humble me by doing so. I do not have to hide anything with you.

When I went with you to your apartment I saw the picture of me alongside thise that died and remembered your words that one did not have to die to sacrifice. The words touched me though I did not show it. I think that it was then when things clicked for me.

Your whisper that you thought that you loved me my spirit soared if you can believe that. And I watched you sleep awed that you were there beside me. It was then that I knew that I want you beside me. And I realized something.

I Love you….

Severus

He loved her.

Some would say that she lost her mind to even be with him and others would accuse him of using his magic to manipulate her. She did not care for that as it only mattered that she knew the truth.

She finished her bath and wrapped a towel around her and looked into the mirror.

"Relations with a man does you well. You look radiant." The charmed mirror spoke. She looked at the mirror with a horrified look for a moment wondering if it could read minds.

"You read the letter out loud dear. Good Night."

Hermione fell into her bed and felt Crookshanks next to her and hugged the old cat. "He loves me Crooks."

"You humans never make sense with the one mate rule you have. But I feel your happiness kitten and that is enough for me." Purring out and settling into her arms. Soon both fell asleep.

Severus sat with Draco in his Library sipping at his Firewhiskey impatient. Patience was something he was short of when action was required.

Soon there was a loud clap and a clump of house elves was revealed.

"Master we bring youse what youse require." One shrill voice sounded out.

Draco watched the form struggle against the elves. "His wand if you please."

A wand was tossed out and Draco caught it up. "Well done. You can go outside and guard the door in case Mr. Fletcher decides to leave without permission."

Mundungus stood up and brushed his robes and looked to Draco. "Lord Malfoy you merely had to Owl and I would have come. My wand if you don't mind." Holding his hand out.

Draco stood up and poured a drink and handed the glass to the flustered wizard. "I'll keep it for a bit if you don't mind. My guest has a few questions for you."

Mundungus turned and caught who the guest was. "Snape!" He shouted out spitting his drink out.

Severus approached the thief. "The theatrics are amusing." He growled out and grabbed the collar of Mundubus's robes and pulled the slight man to him. "Did you think that your early departure would not go unnoticed? I would think that you would have a care of the task presented to the group that you are a member of."

Mundungus nervously laughed. "Well you know me Snape. Always have business to attend to."

"I'm sure that you do. Does it involve warning the person that you sold the silver beads to?"

Mundungus shook feeling the point of a wand pressed against his neck, hearing Snape growl out. "We can do this the hard way or the easy way thief."

"Put your wand away Snape! I was caught by a female Aurour selling some things that I probably should not have. She was reasonable saying that if I could get the beads for jewelary then she would let me go. She did not want the hassle of submitting a import request and told me it was for a friend's wedding coming up in a week. It was beads Snape and it was not like she was asking for anything unreasonable and dangerous."

Severus pulled his wand away from the scrawny neck and continued to hold the wizard closely to him. "Do you happen to remember where you delivered the package?"

"Sure Snape because it was muggle. The Dog and Partridge in East Wretham Norfolk."

Severus pushed the wizard away and watched in satisfaction as Mundungus fell to the floor and tossed a phial down. "Pull your memory and it better be accurate or I may have to hunt you out and that would be very unfortunate for you as my time is valuable. Make sure you put in very clearly what this Aurour looked like."

Mundungus glared at Snape for a moment and pulled his memory of the meeting and capped the phial before holding it up. "It is true I promise it! I don't think that we will need to meet again." Stuttering out in fear.

Severus snatched the phial up. "You better pray that that is not the case. Lord Malfoy this pathetic wizard can leave us now." Turning his back to him.

Draco opened the door and spoke to the ten elves standing in the hallway looking to him intently. "Cracklin escort our guest to the gates. The rest of you may resume your duties."

"You will my's Lord." Cracklin spoke and found the wizard pushed harshly out the door stumbling to keep his balance. "Youse comes with me and be's nice or else!"

Draco watch Mundungus leave and turned to his Godfather. "I have a Pensieve if you wish to view it now."

"Thank you for the offer Godson but it is too late. I'll visit the muggle pub but it will go nowhere. Albus needs to view this and probably Kingsley."

Draco grabbed his Godfather's hand. "Promise me that Harry will be safe Godfather!"

"I'm not about to make vows that tie me down but I will keep an eye out for him. I don't understand what you see in Potter but I will respect it."

Draco released Severus. "Fair enough Godfather. Be well and call me if needed."

Severus curtly nodded to the blonde haired wizard and turned his heel and Apparated away.

HGSSHGSSHGSS

He dropped off the phial to Albus and told him that he would discuss it in the morning and walked the dark halls heading to Hermione's. He heard giggling and moved immediately to the sound with his wand out. His wand revealed a Ravenclaw witch and wizard kissing.

"One would think that you would know better not to be out at this time as you are Seventh years. Get out of my sight and back to your beds!" He snarled out.

The students left immediately relieved that he did not assign any detentions or even ask their names.

He found himself in front of her door and whispered the password to let him in.

Walking into the main chamber he found Potter sitting in a chair and said nothing as the man pointed to a door across the room.

"Not up for conversation Potter?" He asked lightly.

"Not really Professor Snape. It's Harry if you don't mind." Harry mumbled back and looked back to the fire.

Severus looked at Harry for a moment. "As you wish as I suppose you deserve it despite being responsible for hexing my Slytherins. Well done by the way as they should have been wary."

Harry looked up and observed his ex-professor now colleague and attempted a smile. "Thanks for that Professor Snape. Hermione cares for you. I think that you will do each other well."

He looked to Harry for a moment and placed his hand on the young man's shoulder. "All is not lost Harry. We will find a way I promise you."

Harry mumbled his thanks and said nothing and Severus left the wizard to his own thoughts.

He entered Hermione's chambers and stripped down before changing his robes into pajamas and slide next to his sleeping witch sighing out and pulling her tightly against her smelling her scent.

He smiled at her sleepy response. "Severus."

"Go back to sleep Hermione." He whispered and enjoyed the feel of her pressing back against him.

He soon fell asleep thinking that things could not be better despite the Order meeting tonight.

AN Well done for those that connected the werewolves were being killed from the previous chapter.
