________________________________________________________________________________

Lucas had woken up to the sound of an owl hooting. He sat up and stretched before he turned to the source of the hooting. The owl belonged to his mother and as soon as he realized he had Lucas' attention he dropped the letter and flew off.

He read the letter and almost blew up in fury. How dare that man sell a child for sex. He quickly showered and dressed before he quickly ate breakfast and left.

He arrived at the same time Severus and a healer did. Fay entered the room and made her way to the healer.

"Thank you for coming so quickly." She said.

"In cases like this we want to get the child help quickly." The healer answered.

"He is in his room." She told him.

"I will go there then." He followed Fay and the other two followed him.

They came to Harry's room and Fay knocked. "Harry sweetie, may we come in?"

Harry looked up from his picture book and nodded. He brightened up when he saw both Severus and Lucas. He put away his book before he went over and hugged them.

"Lucas, Severus you're here." He said excitedly.

"Yes we are, Kitten."

The healer took note of the nickname that Lucas called the neko. He then kneeled down to Harry's level.

"Hello Harry, I am Healer Cross." He introduced himself.

"Hello." He said as he hid behind Lucas.

"There is no reason to be scared. I am here to help you." He assured the child.

"Help me?" Harry asked as he peaked out from his hiding spot.

"Your Mère told me about the dream you had and what your relatives did to you. I am here to listen and help you with those things." He said.

"Why?" The neko asked.

"It will help you if you talk about what happened to you." He replied.

"Why?" He asked.

"It will help especially with the nightmares." He answered.

"You sure?" Harry slowly moved towards the healer.

"I am." The healer confirmed.

"Okay."

"Would you feel better to know that I will sometimes have you draw pictures and explain them instead of talking?" He asked.

"Can we do that today?" Harry asked.

"We can." The man said with a smile. "Do you want anyone here during our session?"

"Fay, Lucas, and Severus." He immediately answered.

"Okay then. We need some blank pieces of paper and some crayons."

"Okay." Harry grabbed those items.

"Now I want you to draw something that happened to you before you came here." He said.

"Okay." Harry sat down at his table and began drawing a picture before he showed it to the others.

"Can you explain this to us?" The healer asked although he could understand what the picture was and forced himself to be calm just like the others.

Harry explained the picture and the adults had a hard time not reacting to what they heard. The next picture that Harry drew and explained was worse than the first and no one knew what to say to it. All they knew was that they wished the Dursleys were still alive so that they could kill them themselves.

When the session was done Harry and Severus went outside to play. The healer talked with Fay and Lucas after Harry left the room.

"I will come back next week for another session." He told them.

"Okay." Fay said meekly. She was still shaken by what she heard.

"Here is a list of things to do to help Harry." He said as he handed her a piece of paper.

"Thank you."

"You are welcome, Lady Davet." He left.

Lucas hugged his mother as she broke down crying. Neither one of them could understand how anyone could do this to a child. Children should be protected yet there were those, like Harry, that weren't. Instead those who were supposed to be protecting them did the opposite. It both saddened and enraged them.

It was a long time before his mother calmed down. Once she did she whipped her face and fixed clothes.

"I am going to inform the elves of this list." She said. "Go spend some time with your mate."

"Okay."

They both walked away knowing that it would take a long time for Harry to get over this. Hell he may never get over it and it may always affect him. One thing they did know was that they would stay by and support the young neko no matter how long it took.
