3rd Person POV

On Sunday morning, Harry and Y/n woke up in the hospital wing, no pain left in their arms. Y/n sat up quickly, her arm felt very stiff but alright and healed

Harry also stood up. He immediately looked over at Colin's bed, but it had been blocked from view by high curtains

Seeing that the two were awake, Madam Pomfrey came bustling over with a breakfast tray for both of them and then began bending and stretching Harrys arm and fingers

"All in order, Mr. Potter" she said as he clumsily fed himself porridge lefthanded

Then she went over to Y/n, also stretching and bending her arm and checking if every bone had grown back

"You are also fully healed", she spoke, "when you've finished eating, you may leave"

Harry and Y/n dressed as quickly as they could and hurried off to Gryffindor Tower, desperate to tell Ron and Hermione about Colin and Dobby, but they weren't there

They decided to go look for them, wondering where they could have got to

As they passed the library, Percy Weasley strolled out of it,looking in far better spirits than last time they'd met

"Oh, hello, Harry, hello Y/n" he said, "excellent flying yesterday, both of you, really excellent. Gryffindor has just taken the lead for the House Cup and you earned fifty points!"

"You haven't seen Ron or Hermione, have you?", Y/n asked

"No, I haven't," said Percy, his smile fading. "I hope Ron's not in another girls' toilet..."

The two tried not to laugh until Percy walked out of sight. Then the two headed straight for Moaning Myrtle's bathroom. Harry couldn't see whyRon and Hermione would be in there again, but Y/n had her suspicions, so they decided to look

"Guys, it's us" Harry said, closing the door behind him

"Harry! Y/n" Hermione came out of a bathroom stall, "You gave us such a fright - come in!"

The two squeezed into the stall. An old cauldron was perched on the toilet, and a crackling from under the rim told Y/n
they had lit a fire beneath it. Conjuring up portable, waterproof fires was a speciality of Hermione's

"We'd've come to meet you, but we decided to get started on the Polyjuice Potion," Ron explained as Y/n, with difficulty, locked the
stall again, "we've decided this is the safest place to hide it."

Harry and Y/n started to tell them about Colin, but Hermione interrupted them

"We already know - we heard Professor McGonagall telling Professor Flitwick this morning. That's why we decided we'd better get going-"

"The sooner we get a confession out of Malfoy, the better," snarled Ron. "D'you know what I think? He was in such a foul temper after the Quidditch match, he took it out on Colin"

"There's something else," said Harry, watching Hermione tearing bundles of knotgrass and throwing them into the potion. "Dobby came to visit me in the middle of the night."

Ron and Hermione looked up, amazed. Harry told them everything Dobby had told him - or hadn't told him. Hermione and Ron listened with their mouths open

"The Chamber of Secrets has been opened before?" Hermione said

"This settles it," said Ron in a triumphant voice, "Lucius Malfoy must've opened the Chamber when he was at school here and now he's told dear old Draco how to do it. It's obvious. Wish Dobby'd told you what
kind of monster's in there, though. I want to know how come nobody's noticed it sneaking around the school."
