There will definitely be another Dark Lord, because without evil there can be 
no good.

I actually am a fan of DarkQueen!Hermione.  I'm sure someone has mentioned 
this somewhere along the line, but I don't remember at this time.  

It won't be on purpose really...unlike Tom Riddle, Hermione won't start out 
trying to rule the world.  She'll start by freeing all the House Elves.  Then 
she'll find another group (werewolves perhaps?) that don't have right and 
she'll work for their freedom (which is a good thing!  Yea Remus!).  She'll keep 
trying to make everything equal by lowering the rights of other people.  Think 
"Harrison Bergeron".  She'll be gaining power along the way, cheered on by 
people who think she's going great deeds by making everyone equal.  When Hermione 
thinks she's right, she won't let anyone dissuade her (SPEW anyone?)  
Eventually, she'll end up basically ruling the world by forcing people to believe the 
same things she believes, using her moral code to guide everyone else.  People 
like Draco and the other Slytherins won't exist anymore.  Lord Volemort's 
dream will have come true.  "...no good, no evil only power".

It could happen right?  Either that, or band camp is taking it's toll on me.
