Coming Back

Chapter Seven

"I-Is she dead?" I heard a voice whisper around me, Fred.

"No, she's breathing. Can't you see?" A girl's voice screeched, Hermione.

"I wonder when she'll wake up?" Another voice asked, George, "we need her smile right about now."

"Dunno, Harry said she got hit quite hard in the head," A boy with an Irish accent, Seamus. "Ron also said Filtch didn't do so well carrying her here."

"That tree scratched her up pretty hard," The first voice said. He sounded terrified.

"Yes," The rest of the group chimed. I tried to open my eyes but it was no use. It felt as if I could hear everything but was far away in a dream. Then I heard what sounded like footsteps and a lot of panting.

"I-Is she ok?" I heard someone whisper.

"Harry, you were right she did get hurt really bad, and she won't wake up," The girl's voice said as someone grabbed my hand. I heard a huff.

"I believe she's in a coma," said a voice I knew to be Liza.

"Wouldn't doubt it, do you see that bump she has," said George laughing as I heard someone hit him in the gut as he grunted.

"Where have you two been anyway?" Hermione asked.

"Why is it important, I'll talk when Nova's is awake!" Harry snapped. I felt my bed get heavier at the end.

Someone just sat on the bed.

"N-Noves, please wake up," A voice whispered in my ear as they touched my skin. That sent a volt up to my brain. I felt as if I could move again, but with more sores and bruises and cuts.

I groaned as I opened my eyes. My back felt like it was broken, my head felt like it was going to fall off, my ribs felt snapped in two.

"H-Hey guys," I smiled as my eyes opened to the very lit room and very full of people from Gryffindor. I then got attacked in hugs. I moaned in pain as everyone let go.

"Nova!" Fred screamed, "I thought you were gone for."

"W-Well I think not!" I screamed, "Not yet anyways! I'm Nova Potter, I'll never die!" He gave me a questioned look.

"Nova, you missed it! The car ran away!" Harry said sorta happy like. I turned to Ron who looked very scared.

"You aren't in trouble, are you Ron?" I asked as he nodded his head very slowly.

"M-Mom sent a howler," I flinched as he said that, Neville told me about Howlers.

"I-I am so sorry!" I said giving him an additional hug. Ron glanced to my arms and sighed.

"I think mum was more worried about you and happy that we got rid of the car so nobody else gets hurt."

"I mean, I don't think the car would have just done that to anybody else," I sighed, "it was just a random occurrence."

"A random occurrence that has my mother threatening me."

"Ok, so where have you two been?" Hermione said calmly.

"Snape's office for using the car," Harry said as Hermione gasped.

"What did he say?" I asked.

"We were seen by Muggles, and it was wrong of us when we should have waited for an authority figure," said Ron, "that kind of bloody mess."

"You aren't in trouble are you?" I asked as Harry shrugged.

"We have detention," he said as I groaned. "Except for you Nova, Snape said you had enough from the Whomping Willow."
