Summary: Hermione knew that Dumbledore hadn’t expected Harry to survive.

Rating: G

A/N - One word prompt request – “Vengeance” for Hermione Granger, from Anonymous.

For the Greater Good

Thanks to the Draught of Living Death, and the assistance of Severus Snape, Albus Dumbledore had never died. He had let the Wizarding World mourn his loss and vilify his faithful spy so he could put the final pieces in place.

And then he sent his pawns out to die, “necessary” sacrifices for the Greater Good.

Innocents. Snape. The Order.

Harry.

Hermione knew that Dumbledore hadn’t expected Harry to survive. He had believed Harry would fall as a martyr to the cause (destroying the final Horcrux). The troops would rally, Voldemort would die, and Dumbledore would once again be lauded as a hero.

She waited until they were alone to confront him. “You’re sick.”

He gave her a tired smile. “I’m old, Miss Granger, but I’ll recover.”

“I meant mentally.”

He frowned. “Pardon?”

“Do you even care how many people suffered and died because of your need for dramatics? I wonder how long it would have been before you started to crave the attention again.” She pointed to the cup next to his bed and held up an empty vial. “I have to put a stop to it.”

She shrugged as he doubled over in pain. “For the Greater Good.”
