Harry glanced up as a shadow fell over him as he was sitting by the lake. "Can I help you, Weasley?"

"I want to know how you can live with yourself. You ruined my family." Ron Weasley told him.

Harry slowly stood up and faced Ron. "I didn't do a thing. If you want to blame someone you might want to blame the Headmaster, your brother-in-law. Now if you excuse me, I have a class in ten minutes." Harry stepped around Ron, he started to walk away, he heard Diffindo and he dodged but it didn't totally miss him. He landed and looked down and saw his chest was bleeding. Harry knew he needs help fast, "Accio Severus Snape." He fell to the grounds on his side, he watched Ron take off.

"Harry!" Severus leaned down and saw the blood coming out of Harry's chest. He started chanting a healing spell and watched the wound slowly closed. He pulled out his potions pouch and forced Harry to swallow two Blood-Replenishing Potion and a pain potion. He picked Harry up and started to carry Harry into Hogwarts.

"Ron Weasley." Harry mumbled to Severus. "Weasley did this."

"He will pay." Severus told him. He made it to the infirmary. "Poppy."

He laid Harry down on one of the beds as Poppy rushed to Severus seeing all the blood. He watched her begin her scans. "What happened?"

"I am not sure, Harry woke long enough to say Ron Weasley cast the spell. He accioed me to him. He was by the lake lying on his side."

Poppy was already scanning Harry. "The spell damage tells me it was Diffindo, and if you if he hadn't summoned you he might have died." Poppy informed him. "He is going to need more Blood-Replenishing Potions and I will want a Lung Clearing Potion handy just in case. The cut was deep Severus, what did you use for healing?"

"I used the Greek Healing Chant. I gave him two Blood-Replenishing Potions and pain one already."

"We will need to watch for fever. I have some Fever Reducing Potions already."

Severus took Harry's wand from up his sleeve. "He didn't even pull his wand." He bent down and kissed Harry's forehead. "I will return as soon as I can, how long before he wakes?"

"He won't wake today, most likely tomorrow morning." She told him.

"I will be back as soon as I deal with Albus and Ron Weasley." Severus said, he turned on his heels and with his cloak billowing behind him left the Infirmary.

"I feel bad for Mr. Weasley." She muttered to herself. She looked at Harry and to the retreating form of Severus Snape. "You have a fierce protector in him."

Severus made his way to the Headmasters office. He glared as the gargoyle. "You will let me see him or I will blow you up and leave a hole for your replacement." The gargoyle moved aside and Severus was in the Headmaster's office before the stairs were fully done moving. "Call the Aurors."

"Excuse me?" Dumbledore said.

"You heard me, call the Aurors or I will." Severus told him. He was furious, he was not going to let his go. He knew Harry wouldn't. He didn't even want to think what Tom will do, scratch that, Harry will make what Tom will do look like child's play. "NOW."

Dumbledore wondered what is going on but went to his floo and placed the call, neither man speak a word until after three Aurors arrive with Kingsley Shacklebolt. "Albus, why are we here?" Kingsley asked.

"I want you to arrest Ron Weasley for attempted murder on Harry Potter." Severus stated. "He tried to kill Harry down by the lake." Dumbledore felt faint as he heard words that came out of Severus mouth.
