Once Upon A Time : The Echo of the Vanguard by Chris_RM

Summary
She arrived with a deafening crack, wearing the literal trenches of a battlefield and eyes so entirely hollow they look like graves. They called her a Muggle-born transfer. They call her a fifth-year. But Tom Riddle knows how magic settles into a body, and the dense, heavy static vibrating off Hermione Granger belongs to someone who has mastered things far beyond their school curriculum.
She didn't come to save him. She didn't come to change the past. She is simply a ghost surviving on pure, lethal survival instinct, her magic coiled like a starved predator ready to violently smash anyone who gets too close.
Lost in the prison of her making. Tom tries to see into the void that wants to reject everything.

Voldemort has won. The Order has fallen. Harry Potter is dead.
Five years after the Battle of Hogwarts, Hermione Granger is pulled from Azkaban and forced to compete in the Dark Tournament against fellow fallen Order Members.
The Goblet of Shadows assigns each high ranking Death Eater a Champion. The Champion who wins the games will get to go free and their master, one of Voldemort’s Scions, will have secured their position as his Successor.
With Hermione being assigned to Draco Malfoy, the highest ranking Scion, she may have a chance.
There can only be one victor, one survivor and one shot at freedom.
Let the games begin.

Summary

Summary
Ten years after Voldemort won the war, the world is running exactly as intended.
Pure bloods sit comfortably at the top of the food chain, whilst everyone else enjoys restricted wands, factory shifts, and the looming possibility of a helpful government arranged marriage to solve the pure blood infertility crisis. It’s giving dystopian, quite frankly.
Hermione Granger spends her days working a demeaning job on a communist wage, and her nights making objectively terrible decisions with Draco Malfoy.
Then Voldemort dies, leaving a will.
Unfortunately, it names an heir.
Enter Tom Riddle.
Insane. Brilliant. Charming. And almost certainly worse.
Hermione intends to ruin his plans.
He, unfortunately, seems quite interested in ruining her.

Summary
When a form of ancient, near-forgotten magic saves her from meeting her tragic destiny, Hermione Granger finds herself navigating the forties with one goal in mind: to definitely destroy the cause of her ills once and for all. But when strange, fragmented memories, soaked in old magic, let her glimpse a lost, unreachable past, things turn out to be more complex than she initially thought. The closer she gets to the truth, the harder it becomes to carry out the one thing she came to do.
A/N: You don’t need to know anything about Hogwarts Legacy to enjoy this story. All essential elements are explained within the fic. Readers familiar with the game may notice a few subtle references sprinkled throughout. Not required, but fun to spot.

Summary
Three years after the fall of Harry Potter, Emperor Tom Riddle rules Magical Britain with ruthless perfection. He has dismantled the archaic blood politics of the old regime, and established an era of absolute power.
Yet, his flawless victory is haunted by a single ghost: Hermione Granger. The supposed Muggle-born who wielded magic darker than his own, saw through Dumbledore’s lies, and vanished without a trace. Information from Draco Malfoy proves she isn’t quite what they thought she was, but what is she?
When a defiant, insulting letter arrives from the impenetrable Polish Magical Republic, Tom discovers the terrifying truth. Hermione Granger was never a Mudblood. She is Księżniczka Hermione Vronski—the Princess of an ancient, occult bloodline that commands magic making the British purebloods look like children. And she has been playing them all.
Invited to a diplomatic parley to secure a vital alliance, Tom finds himself facing a creature who is entirely his equal.
As Hermione steps into Riddle Manor as a foreign dignitary, a lethal game Begins. Now, Lord Voldemort must decide if he wants to conquer her, kill her, or burn the rest of the world to the ground to make her his wife.

Summary
“Kill me, then. Give me a drink of the poison from your lips and I’ll fade from this earth willingly.”
***A tale that has been told hundreds of times, in a thousand different ways. In this one, two people find love unexpectedly amidst dangerous and cruel circumstances. It begins with Hermione witnessing something she wasn’t supposed to, Draco developing a confusing obsession with her as a consequence, and the brightest witch of her age being unable to decide if she quite likes that or not.
A tale that is told in three parts. Each with their own story. Each with their own betrayals. Each with their own fucked up version of love.
Anybody want a drink before the war?
***
Or: A toxic and morally grey retelling of Hermione and Draco's experience from sixth year onwards loosely inspired by Wuthering Heights, in which one of their only redeeming qualities is their love.

Summary
Hermione Granger never expected the strange book in Ginny’s hands at Flourish and Blotts to write back, let alone with the voice of a brilliant, devastatingly charming boy who seemed to understand her in ways no one else ever had. Tom Riddle never expected to wake in darkness, tethered to a girl whose ink fed him magic, whose mind fascinated him, and whose heart might just be his undoing.
As their bond deepens across years of stolen diary entries, Hermione begins to uncover a terrible truth. She is falling for the ghost of a monster. And when time itself becomes their enemy, she is forced to gamble everything. Steal McGonagall's Time Turner, prevent the creation of his Horcruxes, and love him before he becomes the Dark Lord. But the real Tom Riddle is not the boy in the diary, and some shadows cling harder than ink.

Summary
When half of Gryffindor refuses to believe Harry that Voldemort has returned, Hermione Granger finds herself dissatisfied with maintaining friendships just because they're convenient. It's a lot more interesting to seek out friendships with people that she actually respects.
Fred and George Weasley, to her surprise, top that list. They might not be stellar students, but the brilliance of their products speaks for itself, and their dedication to opening their own business is... well, it's downright admirable. Fred and George themselves, in fact, are quite admirable. Some of their ideas, though, could use some work. A bit of tweaking, a shred more research, a hint of know-it-all acumen.
Hermione might know just the girl to help them.
~*~*~This story asks the question "What if Hermione Granger fell in love with the twins in fifth year? What would canon look like then?" and then follows that thread through to the end of the war, with all the trials and tribulations therein.

Summary
Five years after the war, Hermione Granger has very little time for something like a relationship. She's far too busy trying to run the Bureau for Endangered Creatures efficiently, dealing with budget cuts and ignorant ministry officials and finding a way to somehow restore her parents' memories, who are still in Australia and none the wiser about the existence of their daughter.
When she discovers that the Wizengamot plans to use Draco Malfoy as a scapegoat whilst dealing with elusive Voldemort loyalists, she offers to testify for him. She's not quite sure how it led to her trying on wedding dresses under the watchful eye of Narcissa Malfoy.

Summary
“In my humble opinion there’s only three things that men should be and that is bloody, slutty, and pathetic.” And, on a good day, Draco Malfoy can be all three.
When war heroine Hermione Granger and Azkaban-tattooed war criminal Draco Malfoy are forced to wed as part of Shacklebolt’s controversial Reconciliation Act, they openly fight the match and each other—their public brawls breathlessly reported by the press.
Secretly, a deeply traumatized Draco delights in Hermione’s attention and pines for a real marriage with her—even as her forced proximity to the Black family magic irritates the cursed scar Bellatrix left on her arm, reminding her why she can never truly trust or forgive him. Then Hermione discovers that Draco’s blood will soothe the scar . . . and Draco is willing to trade his blood for her body.
(With post-war blood purity politics, black market potioneers, Pansy Parkinson’s career advice, the Malfoys blackmailing Hermione’s Wizengamot opposition, BDE Neville Longbottom hunting Death Eaters, a slutty Theo Nott serving as Draco’s right-hand man, and Crookshanks loose in Malfoy Manor.)

***
The war is over.
For Draco Malfoy that means a fresh start at Durmstrang: an unplottable fortress high up in the mountains, isolated from the world and a thousand miles from all he hated at Hogwarts. A place where the Dark Mark remains a badge of honor. Where Unforgivables are practiced openly. Where Mudbloods have never been admitted.
At least until Hermione goes and ruins everything.
