Rise of Hadrian D. Pendragon (Book 1)

A New Beginning

The second that dinner was over the group came barrelling into the infirmary. "They are this way!" One of the twins spoke. They led the group over to the private room Hadrian and Neville were currently in. "Master!" Both twins spoke at once. They rushed over to sit on the bed with Hadrian in between the pair.

Daphne rushed forward dragging Blaise with her, she maneuvered both of them onto Neville's lap. "Oh Neville...I'm sorry." She sighed before looking towards Blaise who nodded towards Neville's direction. "Potter is the one who sent the piece to me." She whispered out.

"Huh?" Neville questioned before his mind picked up what she said and his eyes widened, "Why the hell didn't you tell me you sent it Ian?!" He questioned the other boy in surprise.

"Sent what?" Hadrian fired back before looking at the bracelet that Daphne was wearing, "Ohhh! That! Yea I sent it and she needed to be the one to tell you herself. You already know the implications of that piece. Now you can fill her in on everything. Blaise too Neville. Better make sure you collar him soon as well." He yawned before laying down, pulling the twins down on either side of him and falling asleep.

Neville chuckled and shook his head, "That fool..but at least I have permission to fill you both in on everything. Including how Hadrian was fatally wounded back in our actual timeline and now his mind and soul is back here in the past while his body is healing and repairing itself." He chuckled seeing their shocked looks then grew worried when they both winced and gripped their heads, "Madam Pomfrey!" He shouted out the cracked door he just opened.

"What is it Mr. Longbottom?" She questioned clear as day as she walked into the room. "Oh dear, hang on dears." She murmured out bustling from the room for a couple pain relief potions. Bustling back in, she handed the potions to both Daphne and Blaise, "Bottoms Up!" taking the empty vials as they drank them she left the room again.

"Thank you, Madam." He murmured out standing up to guide Blaise and Daphne over to the second bed he had them lay down so he could secure the room. He sighed as they both fell asleep with their faces still screwed up in pain.

"I had a feeling that would happen." Hadrian murmured out startling Neville who jumped slightly.

"Don't do that!" Neville hissed out. He sighed seeing the sleepy green eyes looking at him, "Had a feeling what would happen?" He questioned feeling like he was going to regret asking this question.

"They are going to remember Neville." Hadrian told his guard.

"Oh god, they didn't get attacked while I was asleep did they?" He all but demanded. It doesn't feel like an attack happened.

Hadrian sighed softly, "No. But they will be joining us as their current forms fall asleep from now on." He explained quietly. Frowning slightly, "There will be slight differences because back in our time Daphne never did tell you where she got that piece from. So keep in mind about that, along with any and all fights may change also." He yawned again. "It's time for the tests next and then the school year will be over."

"Go to sleep Hadrian. I'm going to seal the room and sleep, myself." Neville told his Liege Lord. He moved to the door and closed it before using a variety of different runes that not only locked the door but sealed the room completely. Waiting until Hadrian fell asleep before he turned towards the bed that was his and shrugged his shoulders. He decided to kick off his shoes before climbing into the bed laying on his back with both arms wrapped around Blaise and Daphne completely. He nodded off and finally fell into Morpheus's arms.

The group spent a grand total of two days in the infirmary under the direct care of Madam Pomfrey. Professor Snape dropped by within that timeframe and brought in their missing work, "Have that completed before the tests start in two days!" he all but demanded. Which both boys did, after all it's simple work and very easy for them to complete. It was a happy group of friends that walked into the Great Hall for dinner.
