Daisy sat down in what was the Slytherin long table in the Great Hall, waiting for Adam to wake all of the professors. Before he left, he gave her wand back to her and apologized for the millionth time. She didn't know what was going to happen or if the professors would even understand the situation but she could only hope for the best. While she was lost in thought, Scorpius spotted her after being free from days in chains and sat down in front of her. They locked eyes and she smiled.

"How are you doing?" The blond boy asked.

Daisy shrugged. "I'm okay. A lot just went on today. A roller coaster of emotions, as they say."

"So about Adam, does he know who his real family is?"

"I don't think so. He looked so broken when I told him what happened. I mean, how would you react if you found out that you've been lied to, not about just your life but about who you are and what you've become?"

"Probably the way Adam did," Scorpius admitted. "So what's the plan now?"

"Well, Adam is going to wake the professors and try to have them help us with this catastrophy."

"What is the actual problem?"

"He needs to learn how to give magic back to the people he took it away from and he has this crazy sister-but-not-sister who is looking for him. We're pretty sure she knows that we're in Hogwarts but we don't know what's taking her so long to get here. We closed off the Floo connections to Hogwarts and I don't think people can Apparate here without power like the professors or Adam."

Scorpius nodded and looked back at the students he was chained up with. He wanted to get into the conversation of the kiss but Daisy looked so distressed and he wanted to talk to her when she felt calm and collected. He sighed and looked back at Daisy.

"Are you going to be okay?"

She nodded and brushed her blonde hair back with her fingers. "I'm going to be just fine. I just hope this whole fiasco will be over soon."

"Doesn't everyone?" Adam suddenly said behind Daisy.

"Oh!" Daisy jumped and put her hand over her heart. "You startled me. Did you wake up all of the professors?"

Adam nodded, "Yes, I did. They didn't seem to happy but I told them to give me a chance and meet me here so that I could explain to them what is going on."

The large doors suddenly opened and all of the professors that just woke up from their long, long, LONG, slumber. Most of them didn't look that happy.

"Just what is going on?!" Professor Longbottom demanded to know.

Headmaster Manerthil raised a hand at Longbottom for him to stop shouting. Even though he was the headmaster after Dumbledore, he was doing a fantastic job at gaining respect. He looked calmly at Adam and said, in a soft voice, "Young Adam. Enlighten us with the situation."

Adam sighed and jumped onto the table so that everyone could see him. He started to tell him about Daisy and who she was, an experiment and the face of the rebellion, and then went on to tell them about the Risebloods. Then, he told them about Kasidy and his new discovery that his whole life was a lie.

"And now I need your help, your teachings, to help me learn how to give magic back to the students I have taken it away from." He reached into his pockets and took out a small clear vile filled with a potion. "This is the Truth Telling Serum, just so you can gain my trust." He took a deep breath and poured a fair amount into his mouth. "Daisy, ask me if I'm telling the truth."

"Oh, uhm, Adam, do you swear on your life that what you have just said was the truth and nothing but the truth."

"I swear," Adam declared.

Daisy looked at the professors and saw that they looked a bit discouraged at what just happened and what they just learned. Adam stood there, on top of the table, anxious with the long silence. Manerthil gathered the professors around and had a small meeting. Daisy looked at Adam and gave him a sympathitic smile that said, "It'll be alright."

Manerthil cleared his throat and said, "Adam. The professors and I have come to the agreement to help you."

Adam sighed in relief and jumped off the table. "Thank you so much, Headmaster Manerthil. I have a plan-."

"No," Manerthil said quickly. "It'll be us that will come up with the plan. Since you need our teachings to help you give back the magic you have taken. It won't be easy."

Adam nodded. "I understand, sir."

"Right." Manerthil then turned to Daisy. "Daisy Dursley."

She stumbled on her chair and stood up quickly. "Y-Yes, sir?"

"This must be a lot for you to deal with."

"Yes, it is." She started to fiddle with her thumbs due to nervousness.

"And I understand that you have a false accusation written by the Daily Prophet." Daisy nodded. He continued. "Well, I want you to go out of Hogwarts, with some help, and go clear your name. It won't be easy. When you are out, try to also know the wearabouts of this Kasidy girl. She is a mighty threat to people and Hogwarts. Do you understand?"

"Yes, sir."

"Good. Go along now. And try not to get captured or killed."

"Thank you, sir."

"Good luck."

Daisy turned around and was heading out the door. She knew where Bradley, Sylvia, and Gretchen lived so she can have them help her. She heard someone call her name when she was already at the front gates. When she turned around, Scorpius was running at her.

"Scorpius? What are you doing here?" Daisy asked. "It could be dangerous."

Scorpius finally reached her and didn't speak for a while because he was trying to catch his breath. He coughed and finally spoke, "You can't go alone. Headmaster Manerthil said that you should go with your friends."

"I'm not going alone. I'm headed to them right now. You should stay here."

"And do what, Daisy? I've been a prisoner for too long. I need to go outside."

Daisy took a deep breath and shook her head. "I can't risk your life, Scorpius."

"And I can't risk you going alone. I'm going with you and that's final," Scorpius said, crossing his arms and had a look in his eyes that said he wasn't going to budge. "Where are we going?"

Daisy knew no matter what she said to Scorpius, he wasn't going to say no, so she replied, "To the closest Wizard town. We need to find a Floo Chimney that works so we can head to my friend's house."

"Wait. I also brought these." Scorpius had dark long cloaks with deep hoods. "You're wanted all over, we need to cover our faces."

Daisy grabbed one of the cloaks and put it on her. Scorpius helped her button the cloak and put the hood over her head. He had the same cloak and put it on himself.

"Ready?" Daisy asked.

Scorpius nodded. "Let's go."
