Maybe Draco discovers that Severus is being framed for a crime he didn't commit. He then approaches Hermione for help as she is known for her intelligence and problem - solving skills. Together, they start to gather evidence to clear Severus's name and also protect him from those who want to harm him.
One possibility could be that Draco and Hermione realize Severus is in danger due to some dark magic plot. They might put aside their differences because they both understand Severus's importance. Hermione's vast knowledge of magic combined with Draco's insider knowledge of the Death Eaters' ways could lead to a unique rescue plan.
One consequence could be a change in Snape's personality. If Hermione saves him, he might be less bitter towards Gryffindors. He may see that not all Gryffindors are like the Marauders who bullied him. This could lead to a more positive relationship between Snape and the students in Gryffindor house in the future. For example, he might be more lenient in his grading or more helpful in potions class for Gryffindor students.
One way it could happen is if Hermione discovers a time - turning device in the Marauders' era. She might use her advanced knowledge to figure out that Snape is in danger. For example, she could know about some plot by the Marauders to prank Snape in a way that could turn deadly. She then steps in, using her magic skills and intelligence to prevent the harm. Maybe she creates a diversion or uses a protection spell to shield Snape.
One consequence could be a change in the public's perception of Hermione. Some might see her as a hero for standing up against an unjust imprisonment, while others might view her actions as traitorous, especially if they believe Draco was truly guilty. This could create a divide among the wizarding community.
One great Hermione and Draco saving fanfiction is 'A Different Kind of Bond'. In this story, they are forced to work together to save Hogwarts from a new dark threat. It has a really interesting plot where their initial dislike for each other gradually turns into respect and more. Another one is 'Saving Each Other'. Here, Draco is in a dangerous situation, and Hermione steps in to save him, which sets off a chain of events that changes their relationship completely. There's also 'The Rescue Mission' where they team up to save a group of students held hostage by a rogue wizard, and during this, their feelings for each other start to emerge in a very engaging way.
Snape would probably be very stern with Draco. He might give him a severe scolding and deduct points from Slytherin. Snape is a strict teacher and he won't tolerate such behavior from his own house students.
Well, in these fanfictions, when they are involved in a saving scenario, it forces them to rely on each other. Let's say in a story where they have to save a magical creature together. They have to communicate and use each other's strengths. Draco, with his knowledge of the dark arts (which can be used for good in this case), and Hermione, with her vast book - learning and quick thinking. This reliance on one another makes them see the good in the other person. It chips away at their preconceived notions. Draco might start to admire Hermione's intelligence and courage, and Hermione might see Draco's hidden kindness and potential for change. This shift in perception gradually changes their relationship from animosity to something more positive, like a partnership or a romantic relationship.
I'm not sure if there is such a specific fanfiction. However, in the general context of Hermione and Severus fanfiction, their relationship is often complex. In some fanfictions, they might develop an unexpected bond through shared intellectual pursuits or mutual understanding of the wizarding world's deeper secrets.
Well, it would change the story a great deal. Firstly, Harry would have a more stable home environment with Severus as his guardian. He wouldn't be so alone at the Dursleys'. Draco, on the other hand, might learn different values from Severus rather than just pure - blood supremacy from his family. And Hermione would have an adult figure in the wizarding world who truly understood her thirst for knowledge. The whole dynamic between the three of them would shift from rivalry to more of a sibling - like relationship under Severus' care.
