Chapter 8 – Indecent Proposal
Hermione awoke with a scream… She expected to find herself in her bedroom, but she was in the library that she had feel asleep in. And sitting at the end of the bed was Minerva McGonagall.
"Miss Granger, are you alright?" Minerva said as she stood and moved over to Hermione's bed side.
"Dumbledore… I need to see Dumbledore!" Hermione almost yelled as she jumped from the bed.

Hermione said in a racing voice with wide eyes.
"Hermione, I know… and we need to hide you or else he will get you… Do you understand?" Dumbledore said as he grabbed Hermione by the elbows and moved her to a chair to sit. "Hermione I have a safe place that you can hide in, just wait here, and I will get what I need to access this room." He then turned to Minerva. "Would you please go find Severus, we need to know what Voldemort plan is."
"Yes Albus, of course." Then with out any other words they both left. Dumbledore up the stairs that were behind his desk, and Minerva out the door that lead to the rest of the castle.
It was silent for several seconds before there was a sound of flames sounded from the fire place… Hermione turned to look and what she saw walking out of the emerald flames made her scream…
