Hospitals at Night
Laying on your stomach by the fireplace in your common room you were doing your homework when you glanced at Cedric who was sitting on the couch reading a book next to you. "Hey, Cedric? Madam Pomfrey said regrowing bones is really painful, is that true?"
You asked making the older teen lookup from his book. "Worried about Potter? I haven't ever needed any bones regrown, so I personally wouldn't know. But Madam Pomfrey normally knows what she's talking about."
He said making you hum and look back at your homework. Hearing Cedric yawn shortly after. "Well I'm off to bed I got quidditch practice in the morning. Don't stay up too late bug. See you in the morning."
Cedric said getting up from his seat to ruffle your hair making you giggle and swat his hand. "I won't, night C have sweet dreams." You said getting up enough to give Cedric a side hug as he left for the boys dormitory.
Going back to your homework again you finished the last bit of the five page assignment Snape gave out before your mind went back to Harry. "I want to go check on him...You know what I'm going to check on him."
You decided picking up your homework and books before carefully sneaking out of your common room and changing into your Animagus form. Quietly hoping to the hospital wing you thought of the pink panther song, making you laugh in your mind as you found Harry's bed.
Changing back you did a quick once over of him before gently wiping his forehead with a towel and accidentally waking him up. "(First/Name)? What are you doing here, aren't you going to get into trouble?" Harry asked sitting up as you smiled lightly.
"I just wanted to make sure you were alright, and that you weren't in to much pain." You whispered making the raven haired boy nod. "How did you sneak all the way here, without Filch catching you?"
Harry asked making you grin. "Just so you know, I've been really wanting to show you this sense the beginning of the school year." You said gently sitting on the bed before turning into a bunny.
Watching the surprise grow on Harry's face you were about to turn back when the voice from before made you freeze. "Kill...Kill...Time to kill."
It said making both you and Harry look around, when something heavy suddenly appeared behind you. Jumping into Harry's lap with a squeak you turned to the unfamiliar house elf.
"Hello." He said making you sigh but turn to Harry. "Dobby?" He asked questioningly moving you off to the side. "Harry Potter should have gone back home when he missed the train."
Dobby said making you tilt your head as Harry slightly glared at the elf. "It was you. You stopped the barrier from letting Ron and me through." Harry growled making you sit up to stare at the house elf.
"Indeed yes, sir." Dobby said guiltfuly making you sympathetic for him. "Oh he must have a good reason for this." You thought turning back to Harry. "You nearly got Ron and me expelled."
Harry whisper yelled making the house elf stand from the bed table. "At least you would be away from here. Harry Potter must go home! Dobby thought his Bludger would be enough to make Harry Potter see-
Dobby said when you quickly changed back causing both Harry and Dobby to jump in surprise. "Your Bludger? You made that Bludger chase after Harry?" You growled angrily making elf shrink in on himself.
"Dobby feels most aggrieved, miss. Dobby had to iron his hands..." Dobby said mournfully showing you and Harry his bandaged and burned hands.
Losing all anger at that. "Oh my god, you poor thing! You shouldn't have gone that far!" You said gently taking Dobby's hands to look them over and gently wipe the exposed skin with the towel from earlier.
"You'd better clear off before my bones come back, Dobby, or I might strangle you!" Harry growled still mad about what the house elf did to him. Watching Dobby quickly take his hands away from you and jump off the bed at the threat.
You sent a quick glare at Harry. "Dobby is used to death threats, sir. Dobby gets them five times a day at home." Dobby said making Harry stand as you worriedly looked at the elf.
"I don't suppose you could tell me why you're trying to kill me?" Harry asked making you remember why you were there in the first place, as you looked at Dobby questioningly.
"Not kill you, sir, never kill you! Dobby remembers how it was before Harry Potter triumphed over He Who Must Not Be Named. We house elves were treated like vermin, sir. Of course, Dobby is still treated like vermin..."
Dobby cries making you coo sadly at the poor elf as he blows his nose on the dirty and stained pillowcase he wears making you grimace. "Why do you wear that thing, Dobby?" Harry said somewhat disgustedly.
"This, sir? 'Tis a mark of the house elf's enslavement. Dobby can only be freed if his master presents him with clothes." Dobby said just as a banging sounds made you jump and turn to the entrance.
Turning back to the house elf when he jumped on the bed worriedly. "Listen, listen! Terrible things are about to happen at Hogwarts. Harry Potter must not stay here now that history is to repeat itself!" Dobby said quickly making you heart drop with fear.
"Repeat itself? You mean, this has happened before?" Harry asked making Dobby gasp "I shouldn't have said that!" He yelled grabbing the Skele-Gro from the bedside table to beat himself the head.
Moving to cover Dobby's forehead "No don't!" You whispered flinching when the bottle hit your knuckle making Harry snatch the bottle away and grab the front of the elf's clothes.
"Tell me, Dobby? When did this happen before? Who's doing it now?" Harry asked urgently as you held your hurt hand. "Dobby cannot say, sir. Dobby only wants Harry Potter to be safe." Came Dobby's reply when you heard something coming your way.
Quickly turning into a bunny and hiding under the bed you heard snap then the bed creaking above you. Just as Dumbledore and McGonagall, rush into the room with two other men and
heave a small statue onto an empty bed.
"What's happened?" Madam Pomfrey asked making you slowly hop closer at Dumbledore's words. "There's been another attack." Getting close enough to see who it was, you froze at Colin's statue like body with his camera still clutched to his eye.
"I think he's been petrified Madam Pomfrey. Perhaps he managed to get a picture of his attacker..." McGonagall whispered worriedly just as Dumbledore opened the camera's back letting a jet of steam hiss out.
Covering your bunny mouth with your paws. "Oh my lord, who could have done this?" You thought as McGonagall turned to the headmaster worriedly. "What does this mean, Albus?" She asked getting the headmaster to look at the petrified boy sadly."It means our students are in great danger, Minerva." He said making the transfigurations teacher look up at him. "What should I tell the staff, Albus?" She asked quietly getting the headmaster to look at her. "Tell them the truth. Tell them Hogwarts is no longer safe. Tell them it's as we feared. The Chamber of Secrets is indeed open again." He said making you shrink back fearfully.
