Edward put his hands around his head and moaned in pain.

"Edward, are you alright?"

After a few seconds Edward felt the pain ease. He breathed in and out deeply.

"I'm fine. For now."

"Edward, tell me if my guess is correct. Did you feel the pain when you saw the boy named Cedric Diggory?" Hermione bit her lower lip after she asked him.

"Well, yes. I guess you know something."

"I do, but I can't tell you now. You have to tell me everything about what you saw and heard."

Hermione seemed to have complicated emotions. If Edward was really Cedric, then it would surely be amazing, a huge gift and a surprise for her. She wasn't the closest person to Cedric, but she had gotten close with him before his death. But if he really was Cedric, there must be something behind his death.

To Edward, Hermione was the only person that held the keys for this strange phenomenon

"It was a big castle. The boy entered the castle, and somebody called out his name. The voice was from an old lady, but it was stern and somewhat familiar. Then, I heard the song you were singing, and at the end the singer said Hufflepuff."

"Did you see his face?"

"Yes, and the part is strange. He looked exactly like me when I was young."

'So, he has the memories of Cedric Diggory.'

Hermione made up his mind.

"He does. You guys look identical. Edward, you've got two options. If you go into this deeply, you will be confused. I am too. But you can just choose to forget it and live normally considering it nothing."

"Living as a vampire is abnormal enough. Who care if I get a little stranger? Besides, I think this is related to you. I would like to know more about you."

She knew he would choose the first option, but his last line was unexpected.

'My days with Ron destroyed my immune system for charming boys.'

Edward smiled low as he acknowledged her sudden change. Her eyes seemed to be quite honest.

"Give me a week, Edward. I need time to get myself ready."

"As you wish. By the way the werewolf thing, I guess we don't need to talk to Carlisle after all."

"Huh? Why?"

"Didn't you notice anything?"

Hermione looked around and was attacked by a sudden odor. She covered her nose with her hand.

"What is this? Is this the bad smell you mentioned about werewolves?"

'One thing for sure, they weren't real werewolves. Lupin didn't smell like that.'

"Yes, and I'm sure that they are coming close to us."

The smell was getting more stronger, and they were able to see four muscular boys running to them at an amazing speed.

"What's that about?"

"I totally have no idea." Edward shrugged. They didn't seem to be running because of excitement, joy, or happiness. They were too militant for that.

Edward and Hermione stepped out of the car and waited for them to arrive.

The four boys arrived and glared at the two vampires.

"Don't come near our territory, bloodsuckers!"

There were always people like the Malfoys. The world was large and there were many idiots out there.

Hermione put her hand in her beaded bag and grabbed onto her wand. Without knowing, she was making her combat stance.

"Like you said, we are near your territory not inside!" Edward spoke as if he was tired of this argument.

"By the way, who is this new face?" Paul pointed Hermione.

"She is now one of us." Edward stood between of Hermione and Paul.

She could hear him growling low.

"Does she know the treaty?"

"Of course."

Sam pushed Edward away and shortened his distance with Hermione in the blink of an eye.

Hermione didn't even flinch.

"Hey! You better be careful. People living here are different from you guys. They have a family and they have hearts. Don't think about destroying them. I've seen people who were killed by bloodsuckers. Here, in Forks, you filthy creatures should keep yourselves down."

At his words, Hermione's memories flooded back to her. She also had a family, friends, and a place to call home. She didn't want this, when everyone is moving on with their lives after the war, she was the only one stuck. All the years she had sacrificed everything, even her family, for the war but this was the result. Her anger was starting to overwhelm her, and she couldn't control herself any longer.

Hermione put her hand on Sam's shoulder and seized it hard. Even a werewolf was no match for a young vampire. But Sam also did nothing but wince. She took out her wand.

"Flipendo."

Sam was knocked backwards to a tree. Hermione wasn't strong enough to throw a werewolf back. Many leaves fell to the ground because of the sudden shock. The skin of Sam's back was severely hurt.

Hermione slowly approached him and spoke. "Incendio."

She pointed her wand at the top of the tree and sparks of fire came out.

The tree behind Sam started to burn from the top and it slowly spread down towards him.

"I did not want this either! I thought that all that was left for me after the war was happiness, not this! Mind your words. You don't know who I am or what I'm capable of. I hope your bravery does not come out from your ignorance anymore. You don't even know who you guys are. Werewolves? You've never seen one after all, remember your names, shapeshifter. If you have the brains to understand my words, shut up and leave!"

She finished her words and with a flick of her wand the fire stopped right above Sam's head.

The four muscular shapeshifters were scared by the new face's warning. Sam had to run away to survive. The Alpha ran away and caused the others to follow. Hermione watched them flee and came back to her senses.

'What have I done? Oh Merlin….. I must have gone crazy.'

Hermione searched for Edward and saw him standing right beside her.

Edward had so many questions he wanted to ask. He heard everything she said. What was the 'war' she mentioned. There wasn't a war in England ten years ago. And she said that they were shapeshifters, not werewolves. Could it be possible that she has seen a real werewolf?

What was the stick she was holding and all the weird words? How did she conjure fire?

Edward rubbed his eyes and observed his surroundings. His eyes were perfectly fine. He could still see small insects and the dews dripping down slightly.

"What was all that?" Edward spoke after he realized that he could not put all these questions in proper words without stammering.

Hermione smiled very awkwardly, and her eyes were moving in every direction.

"Uhmm…. I was…. Standing up… for… my justice?"

"Why is that a question?" Edward crossed his arms.

"Ha…. Was it?"

"It was."

"As I said Edward, a week will be enough. I'll explain everything to you please keep this a secret please?" Hermione pointed at the large tree that was burnt to ashes. Only a small part of the trunk was left.

Edward cracked a laugh. Even in this moment, his perfect features were making her gasp.

"You're actually worried about that? All right. I'll keep this poor tree to myself. Keep your promise. Explain to me after a week."

"Sure, I will."

Edward got inside the car and took the driving seat. "C'mon. I'll ride you home."

Hermione laughed and took the seat next to him.

"It was a bit scary but impressive. I've never seen him run away like that."

"I'll take that as a compliment."

It was weird, she had shown him her biggest secret but she wasn't scared or nervous at all.

She trusted him and so did he.
