The development could also take a darker turn. Harry could be targeted more easily by his enemies without Hermione. He might be captured or face near - death experiences. On the other hand, Hermione could be in danger too, and the story could parallel their separate struggles until they both realize they need to come back together to face their common foes. This would create a more intense and action - packed story as they fight their way back to each other and then fight against the threats together.
In some cases, the story might focus on Hermione's journey after leaving. She could end up in a new and strange part of the wizarding world, meet different characters, and learn new magic. Meanwhile, Harry might be on a quest to find her and in the process, uncover secrets about the wizarding world that they never knew before. This can lead to a reunion later on, but with both of them changed by their experiences.
The story could also focus on her solo adventures. She might go on a journey to discover more powerful magic or ancient knowledge that could help in the fight against the Dark forces in a way that the Order didn't consider. This could lead to her becoming a more powerful and self - reliant character.
Well, it could lead to Harry feeling a bit heartbroken at first. But then he might focus more on his fight against the dark forces. He realizes that their friendship is more important than a romantic relationship that wasn't meant to be.
It could also develop in a way that Hermione realizes she made a mistake after Harry leaves. She then sets out on a journey to find him, and along the way, she discovers more about herself and her feelings for Harry. Meanwhile, Harry is going through his own trials and tribulations, and when they finally meet again, they have both changed so much that they need to re - evaluate their relationship from a whole new perspective.
There could be a new character introduced who helps Harry get over Ginny. This new character could be a friend or a potential love interest. Meanwhile, Ginny might face her own challenges in her new life, like dealing with the guilt of leaving Harry or facing some new enemies. As the story progresses, there could be a possibility of them reconciling or moving on completely from each other, depending on the direction the fanfiction author wants to take.
Often, Harry has to take on the role of a single father. He might struggle at first with taking care of the kids all by himself. He could become more overprotective or, on the other hand, be a bit lost in the day - to - day tasks. The kids might also start to act out, missing their mother.
The story may take a turn where Harry becomes a sort of mediator between the houses. Since he has left Gryffindor, he has a different view and can help bridge the gaps between the different groups in Hogwarts. He might also embark on a personal journey of self - discovery outside the framework of Gryffindor values, which could lead to new magical abilities or insights.
After leaving Gryffindor, Harry may embark on a journey of self - discovery.

The story could develop in a way that Harry goes through a period of self - discovery. Without the Gryffindor identity, he has to re - evaluate who he is. He might explore different kinds of magic that Gryffindor house never encouraged. This exploration could lead him to new powers and a new understanding of the wizarding world.
The story may split into different plotlines. Harry's journey on his own could lead him to new allies and enemies. He might face challenges that change his character in ways different from when he was with the Golden Trio. Meanwhile, Hermione and Ron could be dealing with threats in Hogwarts or the wizarding world that they have to handle without Harry. As the story progresses, there could be a build - up to a reunion, which is often a very emotional and significant moment in the fanfiction.
Well, it might show Harry on a journey of self - reliance. He could be traveling alone, facing new challenges outside of the school's protective bubble. Maybe he meets new allies who help him understand the bigger picture of the magical world that Hogwarts had shielded him from.
