Berrys Dreams and Paints

[LuthienElentari]

I got this idea while I was thinking about Hermione’s character and this story came to my head. And I was just wondering if this idea would work into a story. I have already written the prologue.


My story is about Hermione when she is little and she meets this boy at a berry farm. But Hermione can't decide if this is a dream or it happened in real life. Because when she is older she can't seem to remember her six year of life and these dreams occur when she was six years old. But while she is trying to figure out what is happening , a new professor has been hired .


Please tell me If I should post it or not. :D

Sounds really cool! Definitely write it!

A question though (not to deter you): Do they have berry farms in England?

[LuthienElentari]

Well in this story Hermione is visiting America and I know that there are berry farms in the USA.

[lithorose]

Ah, okay. Yep, berry farms are nice. Especially the one on Sauvie's Island.:D

Chapter 1: A familiar dream

A young girl of seven stepped into the field. Hermione didn’t want to be there, but her mom made her. Earlier that week Anne Granger remarked to her husband that she thought that it would be a good idea if she taught Hermione how to make homemade jam. So three days later at ten o’ clock in the morning Hermione stepped unto the field feeling nothing but annoyance. She thought that it was dumb to make homemade jam when she could go to Yoy’s and buy perfectly nice jam for less money. Anne Granger could sense her annoyance so she told her daughter “ Herms, we will only be here for two hours and in that time I want you to behave. Can you do that for mum? And I promise that after I will get you some ice cream.” Hermione nodded in agreement and took her basket into the fields of berries. As she was picking the fat raspberries she saw a boy who looked about four years older then her painting the bright fields. She found this interesting and yet fascinating she had never seen a proper painter. She wanted to meet this boy so she told her mom she was going to go to the bathroom. But instead of going to the woman’s bathroom she crossed the field and stood quite near to the boy who looked very solemn. She nervously bit her pink ribbon as she moved nearer and nearer to the boy. (The other reason why she was annoyed was that her mom made her wear pink. She hated pink. Her whole wardrobe was pink. Her mom made her wear pink because she thought it matched her vivid brown eyes.) It was these eyes that looked upon the boy in a kind of admiration. She moved closer to him and looked at him for a moment or two until he noticed her watching him. “ What do you want?” he said in an exasperated voice. He clearly wanted to be by himself he didn’t want a five year old staring at him.
“ Nothing I just wanted to see what you were painting” lied Hermione. She didn’t think she should tell the real reason because it might distract him from his work.
But to the boy she wasn’t distracting him: he kind of liked her presence. Everyone had ignored him because they thought artists were crazy and that if they came over to watch him paint he might blow his stack. It was this thought that led him to ask this girl her name.
She answered in a proud voice “ My name is Hermione Anne Granger I come from England”. Hermione stared at him and added, “You looked about nine years old from way back there, but now that I see you, you look more like twelve, how did you get so tall! By the way what is your name?” the moment she said this the sky drooped and darkened. And little Hermione saw the boy fading, Slowly, fading into nothing, but she heard one thing and that was the name Calvin.

Hermione woke with a start her head was spinning with thoughts. Her dream had startled her. Even though no monsters were involved, the dream was still scary. But the only reason why it was scary was because she had this dream every six years ever since she could remember. And each time she had it, more and more was added into it. She couldn’t understand what it meant, someone just doesn’t have the same dream every six years she reasoned with herself.
Hermione went to see a dream interrupter. But the only thing she told her was “ sssssomething is missing, history has changed, save him! Save him”. Not only was this lady creepy and old but she also didn’t help Hermione understand what was going on. But the worst part about the dream (besides not being able to understand it) was that on July thirty- first she always forgot the dream. Even though she forgot the dream whenever she had it again she remembered it. She decided to write the dream down so that whenever she forgot it she could always look at it and remember. But no matter how many times she had it she was always afraid of it, and she didn’t know why. So it was then and there that Hermione Edna Granger was standing in her kitchen at ten o’ clock at night on July fifth digging her spoon into the ice- cream. She didn’t want to disturb her sleeping neighbors so she shut the windows and sat on the floor still digging the chocolate into her mouth trying to reason something out. Over the years she had tried to figure out the mystery of her dream.
Six years ago she went all around England trying to find berry farms, but there was not one in sight. And by the time she found one she couldn’t remember why she was there because it was July thirty-first. There seemed to be no answer to her problem. And Hermione hated it when she couldn’t find an answer to anything. But Hermione hoped that after this year it would go away forever. Hermione highly doubted that, however. She also hoped that next year she would become Professor. Hermione Edna Granger headmistress of Gryfindor.

Heh! Don't feel bad mate... all my views are my own... or so it seems... i'm always editing it and adding mother loads/posts of continued story.

Keep going! That's what I do even though I believe nobodies reading! :D

I used to pick berries for $2.00 a bucket at a blueberry farm. I made a lot of $$$ when I was a kid. :D

[LuthienElentari]

I Still go berry picking and pick the fresh berries just thinking about them makes me hungray.

[Severus Snape]

Is Gryffindor spelled with one f or two? Would you mind if I edited your chapter?

[LuthienElentari]

I wouldn't mind! I guess I should of had the book standing in front of me. But when I wrote it I was kinda tired. I'm planinning this story to be about 5 chapters long. Because I have so many twists I want to use:D don't you love it when you surprise the reader!

[LuthienElentari]

Sorry I have not posted alot. I have been baby-sitting. This time I'm going to have a Professional do it. Which is my mom. She edits books and writes books. I trust her with any mistake I make. She in fact has written a book and gotten it published.

I'm also a writer and editor. :)

Seven more days until book 5! :D

[LuthienElentari]

[Severus Snape]

I hope you don't mind if i pass on your offer. I have not been feeling well lately and I think that editing your book would be a very good way to get some qaulity time with your mum. Not to say that you don't already... my apologies!

I've discontinued writing Severus's First Year at Hogwarts to further write in my own book that I hope to publish in the next two years. I'll see about writing Severus's First Year today. I've got some new ideas but everything that I wrote before... came off the top of my head. *shrugs*

Severus

You don't per-chance have a copy of King Edward second's poetry to Sir Robyne Hode do you?

[LuthienElentari]

If you ever want to edit you can, Sorry you feel down, This week I was a little depressed too thats why I didn't post that much. Don't worry my mom and I spend alot of time together already we talk about Lord of the Rings, Harry Potter all the time , My moms a big geek like me. I think it would be really cool if you got your book published. I would buy it! you would just have to tell me the title. Its ok if you discontinue your story if you feel like it is the right thing to do. Maybe once you feel better you can recontinue and add new ideas, that might make the story better. Sometimes when you have space from a story for awhile it gives you new ideas once you pick it up again. I don't think I have that book but I can ask my mom she loves poetry.

It's a little poem that King Edward II wrote in his journal. His personal clerk kept a registry of all the vassals that he/king paid wages to and Robyn Hode was listed amongst those vassals. What duties he/Robyn performed isn't listed but what is for certain... King Edward II was no Robyn Hode. :D

I lost the poem but it's no big deal. *shrugs*

Oh... my book... 'I always thought that I couldn't enjoy my own works unless I learned to enjoy other's first because there is so much that we can learn from each other!' I like reading Sir Thomas Malory's Le Morte Darthur in Middle English although the copy I found online has a lot of gramatical errors.

Example: Him = Hym
King = Kynge
With = Wythe

Le Mort Darthur in Middle English (http://www.hti.umich.edu/cgi/c/cme/cme-idx?type=header&idno=MaloryWks2)

My book really doesn't have a name except The Kingdom of Elastashire so far. (E-lass-tah-shire)

[LuthienElentari]

A'las I will re- post it when I'm finished. But otherwise this thread is dead!

Er... My memories... rubbish! That's a fact!

You do what you feel is right! :)
