My True Name

Chapter Thirteen: A Slythrin's Trust

(A quote about Draco and Timothy's friendship.)

                                                                                           Draco's POV

After I healed I saw professor Snape carry Sammules out of the bathroom. He was bloody and there was a large cut on his neck, I thought that I saw bone then the thought hit me that he could be dead. I became to think how did he get hurt, then I remembered that he tried to block me from that spell. But why? Why did he try to save me? 

                                                                       Tigers POV

I awoken with a gasp, I was in a bright area. I looked around then I saw a person dressed in white, Excuse me,Where am I? They turned around to see a young man, he looked a bit older than me, he had medium length black hair, black eyes but he looked familiar somehow. Hello sir, Um i'm sorry but do I know you? He chuckled a bit then said, No but you may heard of me, my name is Regulus Black. It took me a moment to realize that this was Sirius's brother. I smiled at him saying, My name's Timothy. I saw him smile a bit then asked, You're such a pretty girl, Why is your name timothy? My eyes widen when I saw that I wasn't in my disguise. What happened? I asked confused, When you die you choose the form that you were most comfortable in life. I nodded my head in amazement but then his smile quickly faded as he became serious, Listen Tigerlilly, Right now you are in limbo I was about to ask something but he continued, However you are going to live. I'm here to warn you about a horcruxes that you will see soon. I was confused and had no idea what he was talking about but I listened closely thinking that this was important. He told me that the horcrux had a note with it. I nodded but suddenly he began to look distant. Regulus then said to me, It looks like our time is about up, Tigerlilly. Remember what I had told you and please be careful. I heard him say just before I fell into a bright place.

After what happened, Snape gave me load of detention and now i'm going to miss the quidditch match. As I told this to my friends this Hermione told me that she overheard some girls talking about a teacher carrying a dead student to the hospital wing. As Ron asked her about this a blonde hufflepuff girl that I recognized from the D.A. asked us, I-Is it true? Is what true? I asked her. She had a look of worry and fear on her face when she answered, I've been hearing rumors that a teacher was carrying Timothy Sammule's to the hospital wing. Some even told me that he's dead. She whispered that last sentence sadly. Hermione offered her a seat. As we all asked her questions about the rumors. I tried to stay calm but I was worried, Tiger was there during the duel with Malfoy but I wasn't sure if she left or not. But then I realized that I could of hurt her by accident. I quickly ran toward the hospital wing begging that the rumors were lies. 

                                                                         Timothy's POV

 As i awoken I felt pain around my neck. I slowly opened my eyes to see professor Dumbledore and Snape by my bed. P-Professor? I asked weakly. I'm glad that you're awake Mister Sammules. How are you feeling? My neck hurts. I told him,But other then that I guess good? He smiled, Well mister Sammules, your neck is going to hurt for awhile. The spell that hit you had cut into you collar bone while exposing some bone. The nurses are doing what they can for now but I advise you to get some rest. Mister Sammules, said professor Snape, Do you remember anything? I thought for a second debating if I should tell him about the book or Harry but decide against it. No sir, I have no idea. Let me know if things start coming back. He told me then left me. Professor Dumbledore started to leave as well but told me, Well Mister Sammules I see that you have visitor so I will leave you with them. I thanked him then I saw Harry, Hermione and Ron appear. Hermione looked at me in shock while Ron asked, Jeez,mate, What happened to you? Hermione gave him a glare but said to me, Timothy, how are you feeling? My neck still hurts but I think i'm better. I told her. She nodded then I asked, Hey do you guys mind if I talk to Harry? Sure, she answered then dragged Ron with her. Once we were alone I said to him, Harry I warned you not to use those spells on people. But Malfoy- I cut him off by saying, I don't care. I asked you to be careful but you didn't listen to me. You could have killed Draco! You almost killed me! Harry then said abit uneasy, You're being dramatic. Harry, I was in limbo. I met someone there. He perked up a bit when I said this but I continued, Harry please just leave Draco alone and let our friendship be. I asked him, I can't do that, I know he's up to something. I sighed then said, I'm sorry Harry but i'm going to protect my friend no matter what, even if you don't like him. I could tell that he was mad at me but he left. I then asked the nurse if they could not let Harry near me. she looked at me odd but told me she would. After a while Lupe visited me she was almost in tears but was glad that was alive. After she left to my surprise Draco had came in, How are you doing, Sammules? He asked awkwardly, I told him, Better. Then he asked me, Why did you try to back there? I was surprised at his question but told him, Draco you're my friend and I didn't want him to hurt you. He argued with, But you're in worst shape then I was! I heard that you even almost died! I sighed, Draco, i'm going to be fine besides I wouldn't want any of my friends to get hurt if I could help it. I smiled as he sighed then said, Well Sammules, You proven to be a friend to me. He stuck out his hand and I took it, we shooked hands and I kept smiling even after he had left because I knew that this friendship was going to last a while.
