Confusion And Obsession

A/N Thank you for all the reviews! You have been so kind and encouraging.

Chapter 17

Harry was setting up his new office when Molly Weasley came bursting in with her husband right behind her.

“Harry Potter! What is this nonsense about you pressing charges against my little Ginny? You march down there right now and get her out of that place! Really, Harry I would think you would be able to protect Ginny better then this. It’s bad enough you have done nothing to help poor Ronald-”

“Poor Ronald? Poor Ronald beat a witch, our best friend, nearly to death. Poor Ronald deserves everything coming to him.”

Molly gasped and leaned into her husband.

“See here, Potter, my son is a good man who made a mistake-”

“Arthur, I have always treated you with respect. The fact that your children treated Hermione and me like prisoners not withstanding. However, I will no longer let you cover for them. Ron almost killed someone I love like a sister. Ginny…Ginny has done something truly evil. Takings my emotions and twisting them for her own gain. I know now that I never loved her. Yes, I one time I cared for her like a sister but that was not enough for her. She forced me to love her out of greed.”

Arthur and Molly Weasley looked at him as if he just told them that he was believed Voldemort was the greatest thing to ever happen to the wizarding world.

“Harry, it’s all right. Whatever has happened to you can be undone.” Molly timidly walked closer to the-boy-who-lived. “We will put every thing back in order soon enough. Ron with be with Hermione and now that she has come into some money they will not be a burden to you. You and Ginny will be married and….everything will be back to the way it was the way it should be.”

Ron and Ginny were not too different from their parents Harry realized. Crazy all of them. How had he and Hermione survived with them so long?

“I think, no I know that you both should go. Whatever hold you had on me is gone now and I will never be under anyone’s thumb again.”

Arthur took in the man before him. There was nothing of the boy they had so cleverly guided for years left inside of Harry. He dragged a hissing Molly away. With a last glance behind him, he saw Harry shut the door firmly closed. Arthur shook his head in sadness. It was if Harry had shut out the Weasley’s forever with that one small gesture.

****************************************************************

Harry had just sat down to read the report in front of him when Shackelbolt burst in.

“Potter, you may want to be in on questioning a prisoner we just brought in.”

The wizards made their way to the interrogation rooms. The room reminded Harry of Muggle police interrogation rooms. A big one-way window dividing two rooms.

On the other side, he saw a very young witch in Slytherin robes. She looked somewhat familiar.

“Sir, who is she? She looks very young to have committed a crime.”

“Selene Parkinson. A few hours ago, she helped her cousin Pansy Parkinson assault Blaise and Silver Zabini. She also helped Miss. Parkinson kidnap Miss. Zabini.”

“What? That can’t be right. Are you sure?” Harry glared at the young witch as she sat there defiantly.

“Professor McGonagall herself informed us.”

When would this be over? Why can’t we just be happy and live our lives?

“Is Silver alive?”

Harry tried to remain calm and keep his head. He needed to find Silver and bring her home….to her family.

“We have no information. We will question the girl and see what leads we can get.”

Harry was about to reply when Neville Longbottom came in. Harry was surprised when earlier he had met his partner. Usually rookies were given older partners that are more experienced. Both Neville and he were as green as you could get at being aurors. When they asked, Shackelbolt merely shrugged and stated that the two worked wonders together during the war and he saw no reason to split a good team.

“Sir, Harry, we have a slight situation. Lucius and Draco Malfoy along with Celso and Blaise Zabini are outside demanding to question the prisoner.”

“Not surprised. I wonder why it took so long for them to get here. Let them in here. Oh, and Longbottom confiscate their wands.”

“Yes, sir.”

Moments later Neville returned with the other four wizards behind him.

When Selene could be seen through the window all of them lunged. They wanted to kill her. Slowly and without
mercy.

Draco seethed with anger. Every minute Silver was away from him was unbearable. What if they lost their baby? It would kill him if he lost either of them.

“I want to talk to her. Now.”

“Mr. Malfoy, you are in no position of authority to do that. We have our own people trained to handle these types of situations-”

“Fuck that! I know how to talk to a Slytherin. We have no time to lose, let me in there now!” Draco was getting desperate.

Shackelbolt was about to argue when Harry interrupted him. “Let him. He’s right. If Pansy and Selene attacked Silver because of Draco, he is the person to talk to her now. He can get through to her know what questions to ask. Trust me, Sir.”

Everyone looked at Harry in shock. He was agreeing with Draco?

“All right. No getting rough with her. She is an underage witch in the Ministry’s protection no matter what she has done. We need her to tell us what she knows. That is why we chose not to administer Veriteserum. While they do tell the truth they do not volunteer information and we don’t want something crucial being left out.”

Luscious and Celso watched as Draco stepped into the next room.

Blaise leaned his forehead against the glass.

Please, please let this work.
****************************************************************

Selene smiled when Draco walked in.

“Draco! I am so happy you’re here. Are you getting me out? I knew you and Pansy would not forget about me! Are you together now? Pansy must be so hap-”

“Selene, listen to me. I need to know where Pansy is. Did she tell you where she was going?”

For the first time Selene looked at Draco with suspicion.

“Why is she not with you? She said that if that Zabini slut was out of the way you would realize that you love her.”

Draco tried to hold back his anger he needed her to trust him right now.

“They are looking for Pansy, Selene. I need to find her so I can help her get out of this mess she is in.”
Selene nodded and Draco could feel how close he was to getting the information he needed.

“If the Weasleys were able to do anything right Pansy would not have needed to get her hands dirty. Stupid Ginny Weasley had to get herself arrested.”

“Yes, I heard about that. What did that have to do with Pansy?”

Selene let out a long-suffering sigh. “Draco, who do you think was helping Ron Weasley? Pansy and Ginny that’s who. Pansy told me all about it. Ginny was going to help Ron get close to Silver and then Pansy was going to make sure they disappeared forever. Once she was gone then whatever spell she cast on you would go away and you would marry Pansy. See, it worked. Pansy got her away from you and your all better.”

Draco couldn’t believe the hippogriff shit coming out of this girl’s mouth.

“Yes, but the way she did it….Pansy needs help now. She caused a scene and Blaise was hurt.”

“No, Draco Pansy made sure not to hurt Blaise. She knows how close you are. She only stunned him.”

“How did she manage to take Silver?” Draco hurriedly went on when Selene’s eyes started to narrow. “Without
getting hurt. Silver is a very powerful witch.”

“Ya, well not much you can do when you’re lying on the ground bleeding.”

Draco had to take a breath and close his eyes so he could focus. What had they done to Silver?

“She was hurt.”

It was not a question and Selene knew things were going to go badly for her.

“I hit her on the head with a rock. It knocked her out good.”

“Where do you think Pansy is now?”

“At the cabin most likely. Pansy told me she bought it a little while ago. For Weasley to take Silver to. They would hide there for a while. Until they could get Celso Zabini to give his daughter money to go away. Pansy knows nobody really wants the bookworm around. She helped everybody by getting rid of Silver Zabini.”

“Where is this cabin?” Draco was keeping his questions short as not to strangle the girl before she told him what he wanted to know.

“I don’t know. All I know is that she bought it from the Patil Family.”
Draco used his hands to push himself up off the table.

“Selene, you should pray they keep you locked up in Azkaban. If they ever let you out you will never be safe. Not from me and not from the Zabinis.”

“What? Draco, please you don’t mean that! Please-”

Draco slammed his fist down on the table so hard Selene and the wizards watching all jumped.

“When Pansy joins you in that hellhole of a prison you can ask her what I mean and don’t mean.”

Draco stormed out of the room to find Potter and Blaise the only ones in the room.

“They went to the Patil home to get an address. Then we go get my sister.”

Draco noticed the stubborn look on Potter’s face. He would have to put up with him for a while. Whatever it took to get the love of his life back.

****************************************************************

Ron had managed to stop the flow of blood from Hermione’s head. He didn’t know many healing spells but he had learned enough during the was to help Hermione.
Hermione.

Looking so pretty and comfortable sleeping in the bed they would soon share.

Ron wanted nothing more then to be with her. Why couldn’t she understand that? Draco Freaking Malfoy that’s why. Stupid ferret always ruining things for everyone.

Hermione would understand once she woke up. She had too.

Ron went into the small kitchen to fix himself something to eat. He hadn’t had a good meal in forever. He started to get angry when he realized it was Hermione’s fault. If she had just done what was expected none of this would be happening. Slamming things around, he prepared his food. He should go up there, wake her arse up, and make her serve him. That’s what she was for right? Of course, that was all she was good for. Ron headed up the stairs to wake his little woman.

****************************************************************

“Hermione! Hermione, wake up you lazy bint! I’m hungry!”

Ron was shaking her but she was not waking up. Shaking harder he started to panic.

“Hermione, open your eyes. Come on, I know you can hear me.”

Ron realized that Hermione was not going to wake up. He placed his head on her chest and was relived to hear her heart beating. She was breathing but was unresponsive.

Ron grabbed the quilt and wrapped her in it before taking her down the stairs and out the cabin.
She couldn’t die. Not after all the trouble he went through. St. Mungo’s was not an option so he headed to the next best thing.

****************************************************************

By the time the cabin’s location was determined Draco felt like a lifetime had passed. Draco, Blaise, Neville and Harry apparated to the site while Lucius and Celso searched for either Ron Weasley or Pansy Parkinson.

They didn’t want to leave anything to chance. They had to be found soon.

Harry and Neville went around to the back as Blaise and Draco went to the front. The cabin gave an evil vibe. As if it knew that it was being used for no good purpose. Draco couldn’t stand the thought that Pansy had Silver. Normally he would have sat back and watched as Silver handed Pansy her arse back on a plate. But she was hurt. She couldn’t defend herself till she was better.

****************************************************************

Harry used his wand to open the back door. He went in followed by Neville. Using gesturers and eye movements, they communicated. That was their biggest advantage. They knew each other so well.

Harry could tell someone left recently. The kitchen was a mess. A meal half way prepared littered the counter.

Ron.

He motioned for Neville to follow him up the stairs. He heard the front door creep open and he and his partner had their wands pointed in that direction in a matter of seconds.

He was annoyed when Malfoy and Zabini slinked in. Using one finger to his lips to indicate they should be quiet and he continued up the stairs. They found nobody. The cabin was empty and the one lead they had died a quick death.

Harry began to search for clues when he saw Draco run his hand over a pillow that was on the floor.
Harry was going to keep looking when something made him go over to him.

“Blood. It’s her blood Potter. I know it is.”

Harry had never seen Malfoy like this. Harry wanted to cry not only for himself but also for Malfoy. Had they lost Silver for good?

****************************************************************

Lucius sat in Parkinson’s library waiting. He and Celso decided that it would be better if Lucius went alone.

“Malfoy, what are you doing here? I didn’t think we had any business to discuss.”

“I wanted to talk about you daughter.”

“Uhhh, saw the light have you? Well, your son is going to have to beg my Pansy-flower to forgive him. She’s not
here right now; however I just got an owl from her she will be here in about thirty minutes.”

“Are you sure?”

“Yes, I’m sure. Wants to go on a little trip and is going to gather some things. I suggest you tell that boy of yours to hurry.”

“Oh, he will get here as quickly as possible don’t you worry.” Before leaving, he turned back to the other wizard.

“Parkinson, you know, I think that if Pansy gets here before Draco you should say nothing. Let him surprise her.”

The fool smiled and nodded not knowing he just handed his daughter over to them.

****************************************************************

Lucius hurried to the cabin. He needed to find his son as soon as possible. He walked in when he saw Blaise through the front window.

“Blaise, where is Draco?”

“Draco! Your father’s here!”

“Blaise, I could have done that myself.”

In spite of the problem they were dealing with Blaise grinned like a little boy. Lucius was reminded of when the boys were younger and more carefree.

“Father, did you find anything?”

“We need to get to Parkinson Manor. Pansy is expected soon.”

At Pansy’s name, Draco tensed and clenched his fists.

“Malfoy, if you can’t control yourself one of us can go in as you and apprehend her.”

“No bloody way, Potter. Pansy is going to deal with me.”

“Let’s go then.”

Draco looked at Potter incredulously.

“Somehow I think Harry Potter coming with me would arouse suspicion.”

“Yes, but not if your father went with you.”

Before Lucius could move Harry plucked a hair off his head.

“Potter! What do you think your doing?”

“Sorry Mr. Malfoy. There needs to be an official auror on this little mission.”

Lucius glared at the messy haired boy as he walked off with Draco.

****************************************************************

Pansy entered the Manor about ten minutes after they got there. She walked into the library and swung open the portrait that covered the safe.

“Going somewhere, Pansy?”

She let out a scream when placed her hands on her chest.

“Draco! You scared me. What… are you doing here?”

“Not happy to see me, Darling?”

“I am always happy to see you, you know that.”

Pansy closed the safe and smiled at Draco.

“Have you come to you senses? Are you here to apologize?”

In that moment Pansy saw a side of Draco she had never seen aimed at her. Anger.

She cowered against the wall as Draco came closer. She looked around desperately. She saw Draco’s father sitting in a chair close by.

“Lord Malfoy, please help me.”

Lucius crossed his arms over his chest and smirked.

“I don’t think I will. You see Pansy you have committed a great crime against Draco and Silver. Silver is not here to seek retribution but Draco is.”

“I don’t know what you’re talking about.”

“Do you know what I don’t understand? You stunned Blaise so you could take Silver and you had to have known he would remember what you did. Why didn’t you Obliviate him? Then again you were never the smartest witch.” Draco
moved closer to Pansy and with a deadly gleam in his eye.

Pansy could have broken down in tears when she realized she could have avoided all this.

“I…I was doing what I had to do. She is fine! Weasley will take care of her and we can be together.”

It was Lucius who answered her. “Why must you crazy people try to break them up? Have you even bothered to look
at them together? I mean really look at them? They belong together. It’s….magic in its purest forms. I didn’t understand it either until recently. Now I will do all I can to make sure that it survives, that they survive.”

He went behind her and Pansy saw the magic binding handcuffs.

“It’s over, Pansy.”

Draco was speechless at Harry’s words. While he knew that what he and Silver had was special he had no idea
Potter would admit it.

Harry, as Lucius, took Pansy to the Ministry as her father followed cursing the Malfoy name and swearing vengeance on those who wronged his daughter.

****************************************************************

“Will she be alright?”

“I think so….I hope so. I did all I could. You know it’s not safe for you here.”

“I know that! I didn’t have a choice. If she died, they would blame me. I will not be charged with her murder.”

The other person in the room spoke up. “So you didn’t hurt her?”

“No, she….was already hurt when she came to me. She tried to get away from the Deatheaters but one snuck up on
her.”

The occupants in the room were quiet as they tried to figure how to get out of the mess Ron Weasley just dragged them into. They didn’t believe a word he just said but they were too afraid of him to do anything about it.

Chapter 18

When she was dating Ron Weasley, they were attending Hogwarts. He seemed to be the perfect wizard. That didn’t last long. The first time he shoved her into a wall, threatened her and left bruises on her arms, she knew. She ran away from that relationship as fast as she could. She remembered watching him with his friends wondering if they ever saw what she did. She thought that maybe Hermione saw it. The nasty, mean, vindictive side of him. The part of him that retaliated by ‘accidentally’ pushing her down the stairs. She told Madame Pomfrey the moving staircases had startled her and she fell. She hadn’t wanted any problems with his friends and nobody would believe that Ronald Weasley would every hurt somebody intentionally. She avoided him the best she could but every once in a while, even to this day he would come around and remind her that he had not forgotten her.

She was at her small home she shared with her girlfriend when Ron came by with a bundle in his arms. Parvati wanted to turn him away but she knew there was no way to do that. Ron would not just walk away and…..she thought she owed it to Hermione to help. If she had let everyone know what kind a person Ron was, she might not be in this mess. She had no way of knowing that for sure but Hermione didn’t deserve to be left in his hands, nobody did.

“Lav, have you seen the Prophet this morning?”

They were whispering in their bedroom and Lavender almost found it amusing considering Ron was with Hermione in the spare bedroom with the door shut.

“No, Ron took it before I had a chance.”

Parvati placed it on the table and smoothed the creases.

“I found it in the rubbish bin. Look at this. Ginevra Weasley and Pansy Parkinson have been arrested.”

Lavender quickly scanned the paper and sat on her bed in disbelief. She knew that Ron was wanted and why but she had no idea the lengths the three would go to.

Could it have been the darkness they had fought their whole life? Lavender would have liked to give some reason to the terrible things that they had done. No, that was not it. Look at Harry, Hermione, and Luna they had all faced the same. Harry even more so. Pansy embraced that dark side of herself, always had. Did Draco Malfoy and Blaise Zabini? Hermione was going to marry one and was the sister of the other. Could she really be brainwashed as Ron said? If anyone else claimed that was the situation, Lavender may have believed them. Ron Weasley was a different matter altogether.

“What are we going to do, Lav? I know you’re scared of him but really, there is no need. We can Stupify him and get help.”

“What if we can’t? What if he gets the jump on us and we all get hurt? We have to think of Hermione.”
“I am thinking of Hermione! That crazy freak will take her the second we tell him that she is no longer in danger. I placed a sleeping spell on her so she doesn’t wake up but that won’t last long.”

“I know. If we do this, it was to be planned. If there is one thing I learned in the war was always go in with a
plan.”

“We will. We will do it when no one will get hurt. It will be alright you will see.”

The banging at the door startled them and Lavender paled and started to shake.

Parvati hated Ron for the way he had hurt Lavender and if it were up to her, she would just pull out her wand and curse the git. However, she would never place Lavender in jeopardy and now there was Hermione to think about. She opened the door and the Great Git strutted in. Parvati fists tightened with the need to just blow him away right here right now. She was reaching for her wand when Ron grabbed her wrist cruelly and painfully.

“Now, why would you be doing that? I know that neither of you ladies wants to get hurt so why start something you can’t finish?” as he spoke he twisted Parvati’s arm till she feared it would break but there was no way she
would give him the satisfaction of crying out in pain. The sick fuck relished in that.

Lavender panicked and tried to distract Ron. She would do anything for Parvati.

“Ron, was there something you needed? Is Hermione all right?” That seem to do the trick and Ron focused on Lavender.

“You need to go check on her. She should be up by now.”

As Parvati went to leave the room, Ron stopped her.

“No, Lav goes you stay here.”

She watched Ron and Lavender leave the room and she screamed in frustration. She had to do something. Hermione was doing okay but she did really need to see a healer. Neither she nor her girlfriend was qualified to help her. They had just started their second year of medical training and they knew that there was a possibility that they were missing something. Parvati had not told Lavender yet because she didn’t want her more desperate then she already was but she was concerned about the amount of time Hermione was not eating and drinking. She could not be held under the sleeping spell much longer.

****************************************************************

Lavender hurried to the room and checked on the girl on the bed. She checked her breathing, color and heartbeat. Everything looked good. The head wound had been cleaned and closed up and everything looked to be healed. She didn’t have to fake her look of concern when she spoke to Ron.

“I don’t know why she won’t wake up. If she does not wake soon either Parvati or I will need to go to hospital
to get some potions.”

“You can make them here.”

“No, Ron we can’t. They take weeks to brew. Weeks that Hermione simply does not have.”
Ron snorted and sat on the chair near the bed.

“This one was always been trouble. Kind of like you, Lav.”

Lavender tried to back away without seeming obvious about it. She saw the ‘sparkle’ in his eye that always meant someone was going to get hurt. She busied herself with the blankets around Hermione and sent pleas to Merlin to help her. When she looked at where Ron sat the chair was empty. She let out a sigh of relieve until she felt his hand on her arm.

“Come, Luv, she will be all right alone. Come to the kitchen and make me something to eat.”

Lavender had tears in her eyes as Ron gripped her arm and lead her out of the room.

****************************************************************

Harry, Blaise and Draco were pacing the small office like caged animals. It had been days and nothing. Luna and Cassie tried to get them to rest or at least eat but the wizards were inconsolable. They had not found a single clue as to where Ron had taken Silver. Avani had collapsed and was bed ridden, Narcissa was with her friend trying to comfort and reassure her that Silver would be found safe and sound. The women tried not to mention the baby as they would both lose their composure at the thought of losing their grandchild.

“Where the hell are they!? We have looked everywhere and nothing.”

Draco growled in frustration. Why could they not find him? They had not gotten anything from Ginny or Pansy and Selene knew nothing else. He wanted to tear somebody apart with his bare hands.

Lucius and Celso came in and dropped files on Harry’s desk.

Celso picked one up and handed one to each of the wizards in the room.

“Weasley has very limited resources. These are files on anyone who has had any dealings with him in the last few years. We need to go over them.”

Blaise tossed the file on the desk. “Papa, going over files will not get Silver back. We need to do something!”

“I know, Blaise, but this is all we have right now.”

Blaise looked down ashamed that he upset his father. He took the file back and looked through it.

****************************************************************

Luna tried to keep busy. It was hard. She thought she would fall down in despair about a hundred times a day.

Cassie was just as worried and they tried to help each other as well as Harry and Blaise. Draco was so upset that looking at him was painful. Luna closed her eyes and took a deep breath.

She had come to St. Mungo’s to do her shift as a volunteer.

She did that a least a few times a month and today had been planned for a few weeks.
She passed a few healers in training when a name came up she recognized.

“I am sorry for overhearing but did you mention Lavender Brown?”

The young witch nodded and continued with what she was saying. “It’s so very odd. Parvati and Lavender are both so dedicated yet neither has shown up for training in days.”

“Has anyone heard from them?”

“No, nobody has been able to reach them.”

Luna thanked the girl and walked away quickly.

Could it have anything to do with Silver? Luna thought it too much of a coincidence but maybe that was all it was. She couldn’t concentrate on anything else the rest of her shift.

****************************************************************

By the time Luna made it back to the home shared with her farther she was convinced that Ron had something to do with Lavender and Parvati’s absence from training.

Ducking her head into the fireplace, she called out for the witches.
She didn’t get far because the floo to their home was blocked. Now what? Harry, of course. Luna couldn’t believe that she didn’t go to him first.

“Office of Harry Potter!” Luna disappeared with the green flames.

****************************************************************

Harry was still going over the files with Draco and Blaise when Luna appeared. “Harry, I think I may know something.”

Draco shot out of his chair and grabbed Luna by the arms.

Harry was surprised by the degree anger and protectiveness that came over him.

“Back off, Malfoy!”

“It’s alright, Harry. I know he is upset.”

“Luna, please, tell me what you know.”

The desperation in the blond wizard’s voice broke Luna’s heart.

“I don’t know anything for certain. I know that Lavender and Parvati are training to be healers. They have not been to work in a few days and nobody can get a hold of them.”

“Silver was hurt. Weasley could have taken her to them.”

Draco was almost out the door before Harry stopped him.

“Move, Potter.”

Blaise went to stand by Draco ready to hex the auror if he didn’t get out of the way.

Draco wanted him to move now. Silver needed him and this bastard was keeping him from going to her. They had done things Potter’s way far too long. Now to do things his way.

“Get out of the way. Either you tag along or you stay here.”

Draco was dead serious and Harry knew it. He had hoped Blaise would help him talk sense into Draco but he should have known better.

“Fine. Let’s go.”

****************************************************************

The cramping woke her from her ‘sleep’. She had heard Ron and Lavender talking. When she started to open her eyes Lavender squeezed her hand a gently placed her hand over her eyes. Silver got the message and kept her eyes closed.

“Ron, she needs those potions! The longer she stays asleep the worse it is for her!”

“Damn, Lavender. Where is Parvati? She…she can go get them. But I swear to Merlin if there is even a hint of someone coming, I will take Hermione…and kill you.”

Ron stormed out the door and Lavender went and quickly closed it.

“Hermione? Can you hear me?”

Silver nodded and crocked out “Silver”.

“Sorry, Silver. Listen you need to pretend to be unconscious. Ron brought you here for help but if you’re okay he will leave with you.”

“Hurts. Lav, help me.”

Lavender felt tears come down her face as Silver moaned in pain.

“Silver, what is it? What hurts?”

Silver gasped and placed her hand on her stomach.

“My baby, Lavender. Please….help me.”

Dear Merlin, Silver was pregnant.

She had no choice now. She had to fight Ron. She needed to get Silver to the hospital.

****************************************************************

Lavender started to walk downstairs when she got an idea and started back up. Pulling out her wand, she gripped it tightly to her chest as she stood against the wall. Please, give me the strength to do this. I am a Gryffindor and I can do this. She took a deed breath and braced herself to face the wizard that had tormented and broke her down.

“Ron! Come quick!”

She heard him thunder up the stairs. Lavender turned her body and pointed it at Ron. She saw his eyes widen and he smirked as he continued to walk up the stairs. She opened her mouth to hex him when the person that had walked up slowly behind Lavender startled them both.

Ron paused for a second before the light from the third person’s wand hit him square in the chest. He tumbled down the stairs and Lavender rushed to her friend’s side.

“Silver, what are you doing out of bed? Come on lets get you back.”

Silver nodded slowly and let Lavender help her walk back to the room.

“Where did you get the wand?”

“It’s Ron’s. He left it on the dresser in the room. He always was an arrogant prick.”
Lavender actually laughed as she helped Silver back into bed.

“Are you still hurting?”

“A little. I know I should have stayed in bed…..but I needed to help my baby. You understand don’t you, Lav?

“I understand. Now should we call for help? That Stupify spell wont last long. Your weak and it’s not even
you’re wand.”

Silver’s eyes widened and Lavender slowly turned around to see what she was looking at.

This was unexpected…
