The Twins Who Lived

Regrowing Bones

Dahlia was the first to Harry's side "boys check on Draco" She said as she took a seat next to her hurt brother, the rest of the group, hagrid and both quidditch teams came over as well. "Thank you, Daph" Harry said, grateful she had gotten rid of the bludger "Are you okay?" Hermione asked in concern, "No. I think my... I think my arm's broken." harry said with a wince, "it's broken in three places haz" Dahlia said, having checked his arm. "Go check on Draco, I'll be fine until pomfrey comes" Harry said, Dahlia nodded going to go check on Draco.

"One of the worst bloody mistakes we ever made" Harry grumbled, Dahlia snorted in agreement, "where's Noir, Onyx, Apollo and Hermes? " Evan asked curiously, "we didn't want to risk them being injured so Noir and Onyx went to hunt through the forest and Apollo and Hermes are in our rooms sunbathing with the other animals" Harry explained

"Not to worry, Harry. I will fix that arm of yours straight away." Lockhart said as he took dahlia's vacated seat, "No. Not you" Harry said, he would get healed by a toad before he let Lockhart heal him, "Poor boy. Doesn't know what he's saying. Now, this.. won't hurt a bit. Brackium Emendo."  Lockhart cast, a blue light came from his wand before it disappeared, he put his wand down and lifted Harry's arm, Harry's eyes nearly bulged out of his head as he looked at his now limp arm, the pain in that arm disappeared completely.

"Lockhart! " the three parents yelled, looking over at the Raven claw, said Raven claw his under the table, escaping from their gaze, "wait until the end, you'll have more reason to then" Harry said. "5 galleons says dad will get to him first" Ron whispered, "My money's on Papa J" Dahlia added, "Nah, Mom got it" Harry added, the future group all made bets, putting forth who they thought would get to Lockhart first.

"Yes, well, that can sometimes happen. But, uh... the point is... you can no longer feel any pain. And, very clearly, the bones are not broken." Lockhart stuttered, "Lockhart!" Dahlia glared as she stormed over, Lockhart made an excuse before quickly leaving the quidditch pitch. She sighed, before looking up at the twins "give him hell, I want him screaming to leave by the end of term" Dahlia said, the twins shared a look, before turning back to Dahlia with matching grins "it shall be done my lady" they agreed with a bow.

{Scene changes to the hospital wing, Draco and Harry are laying by each other, a group surrounded both beds}

"Ok, Mr. Malfoy. Everything is healed, you are free to go " Pomfrey said, before making her way over to Harry's bed "Out of my way. Out of my way. Should've been brought straight to me. I can mend bones in a heartbeat, but growing them back..." She trailed off, measuring the correct dosage."You're in for a rough night, Potter. Regrowing bones is a nasty business." She warned him, Harry grimaced before quickly taking the skele-gro "you just want to see more of me poppy" Harry grinned, pomfrey let a brief smile appear on her face, reminiscing another boy that used to do that and looked quiet like this boy now.

{That night, Dahlia and Harry were sound asleep in his bed}

"How did you manage to get poppy to agree to you laying down with him? " James asked curiously, "Simple, I refused to leave, we had a stare off, I won, was allowed to stay" Dahlia shrugged, everyone, from the students to the staff, everyone's jaw dropped, not even Dumbledore could refuse her orders and yet Dahlia had did it but also acted like it wasn't a big deal

"Kill. Kill. Time to kill. " The basilisk hissed again, Dahlia and Harry woke up, looking around for the voice as they put their glasses on, before both were startled by the sudden appearance of dobby. "Hello" Dobby greeted, "Dobby?" Harry asked in shock, Dahlia learned forward, hugging the little elf "hi dobby" She greeted happily "Harry Potter and Dahlia Black should've listened to Dobby. Harry Potter and Dahlia Black should've gone back home when they missed the train" Dobby said. " It was you. You stopped the barrier from letting Ron, Dahlia and me through" Harry said in realization, Dahlia froze, her arms still around dobby "Indeed, yes, sir." Dobby agreed, relaxing into the hug Dahlia was giving him."You nearly got Ron and me expelled." Harry hissed, Dahlia looked at him with a raised eyebrow "none of us had been at any risk of expulsion" Dahlia said, "At least you would be away from here. Harry Potter and Dahlia Black must go home! Dobby thought his Bludger would be enough to make Harry Potter and Dahlia Black see that--" Dobby started, Harry cut him off, Dahlia sighed, logically she knew that dobby had a good tactic with that, but it frustrated her to no end that she didn't know what they were being protected from, she had a feeling it wasn't the basilisk.

"His bludger! " James exclaimed, "I don't like it but if dobby was trying to protect them from something, worse then the basilisk, injuring them so they would have to be taken to St. Mungos would be a good way to get them out of the castle" Regulus said

" Your Bludger? You made that Bludger chase after me?" Harry demanded, "Dobby feels most aggrieved, sir. Dobby had to iron his hands." Dobby said, showing his bandaged hands, Dahlia gasped, tears Welling up in her eyes. Harry shrugged. "You better clear off before my bones come back, Dobby, or I might strangle you." Harry threatened, Dahlia turned to face him, her face a perfect picture of fury "Harry James Potter-Black!" she hissed, glaring at him, "he is only trying to help us from Merlin knows what, it may be risky but don't you dare go threatening him! " she hissed angrily. "Yes ma'am, sorry dobby" Harry said, his head bowed, Merlin his sister could be terrifying.
