Play Pretend [HGxR]

Chapter 1

One year, One month, Three weeks, 28 minutes and 55 seconds.

That's how long Y/N didn't show herself to anybody. Rumors says she died when You-Know-Who kidnapped her but some says she turned dark and dropped out of Hogwarts to study Dark Magic.

No one knows the reason why a 2nd year student could disappear like that. No one, not her friends, not Dumbledore. Just no one.

People are already speculating the Y/L/N family especially Y/F/N, who wasn't bothered or at least concerned that Y/N was gone. When the Ministry started to interfere with the reported case of Y/N Y/L/N getting kidnapped. Y/F/N acted like his daughter is fine when Aurors investigated him about the possible whereabouts of Y/N or if he knows something about why You-Know-Who would take a little girl inside of school.

Of course the higher ups of the Ministry workers and Dumbledore knows what Y/N is capable of. It's already attached to her when the girl was born into the world. The mistake and regrets that comes with a curse that's already been written thousands of years ago. How unfortunate, really, that a mindless baby is going to face the world not knowing that they will be a possible threat in the making of the Wizarding World but come on, no one knows that...Well except for a few people who already sealed Y/N's fate.

The Y/L/N family is already messed up as it is. A murder case that has been closed for a decade now. Y/M/N Y/L/N killed brutally by Death Eaters when she bravely defended her newly born daughter Y/N Y/L/N. A bit suspicious isn't it? On why was it necessary to defend Y/N from the Death Eaters by her mother but of course every mother have to protect their children against all harm. Couldn't see it suspicious? It's right there, newly born. How could Death Eaters know that Y/N is already out of her mother's womb when her birth was kept a secret. And why wasn't her Father present at the time when the Manor was invaded by You-Know-Who's followers.

Y/N already knows the answer to that. That's one of the reason why she didn't go back to Scotland for a whole year. Now that she's back she has a lot of things to uncover about her past and prophecy. If she really wants to know more about it the consequence is her going back to the hell hole she absolutely despise to put another step at again.

Hogwarts

She has already written a letter to Dumbledore. That's the first thing she did when she got back to the Manor. She was greeted by the house elves but no Y/F/N. The manor already looks like no one has been living there for a along time and Y/N made the most of it. The entire day, all she did was read the pile of letters on her table near the window.

It's all from her Slytherin friends and Cedric. The only letter left she was surprised to see was from the girl she swore to never acknowledge again.

Hermione Granger

The letter was made in December 25 last year. She hesitated at first but eventually she opened it.
