It's been a month since the conclusion of Goblet of Fire, and in all the upheaval, Hermione forgot about the jar...

Yes, it's time for a dark (or potentially, dark crack) prompt in which Hermione accidentally ends up killing Rita Skeeter over the summer between GOF and OOTP!

Now, the Prophet have reached out to the Auror Office to investigate this mysterious disappearance, less than a year after Bertha Jorkins also disappeared in mysterious circumstances, and Trainee Auror Tonks is on the case. Not a great time for Hermione to be sharing a house with her!
