Lily laid upon the floor unconscious as Harry ran to her side soon followed by Madam Pomfrey who turned to the boys in panic after making sure she was still breathing, "Boys can you tell me what is going on?!!"

Jamie looked away for a second a bit taken back but then Lily began to cough in her coma like state and dark red blood came dripping out.

Madam Pomfrey snapped at Jamie making Jack huddle in as close as he could, "NOW!!"

Jamie turned to her, "Fine, I will tell you what you need to know but there is nothing you can actually do." She glared at him and he rolled his eyes, "The thing she has been consuming, is a sort of drug from our reality it was created as a sort of medicine but it actually ends up killing its victim slowly and painfully and the only way to make the pain go away is to keep having it. This makes you addicted to it, if you have it long enough. She has been taking for years now ... But it wasn't like she had a choice in the matter, ther--" he was now looking to the side.

Madam Pomfrey cut in urgently, "Jamie I need to know what's in it!?"

Jamie looked towards Jack and hugged him tight and whispered, "I was getting to that...all I know is the main ingredient is... unicorn blood... she never told me a my of the other ingredients"

Madam Pomfrey and the others looked at him in horror the she said, mainly to her self, " unicorn blood? "

Jamie nodded slightly tears once again forming in his eyes as Harry questioned up to Dumbledore from the floor,tears also threading to fall, "Dum..Dumbledore doesn't unicorns blood give you immortality if you slay the unicorn yourself b..but" he looks down at Lily with sorrow in his eyes.

Dumbledore looks to Jamie and asks, " Jam..Jamie are you saying that Lily sla-, "

He was sharply cut of as Jamie lifts his head in his own horror at Dumbledore's suggestion, " NO, no she would never do that, slay a unicorn, "he looks down at his sister with pity," or, or she wouldn't be dying, now would she... She extracts it so it's plain then she would have to curse the blood herself as she mixes it with the other ingredients which she never actually shared with us saying it was to hard for her... but then she goes and makes it any way!!" he looks back down at Jack caressing his sleeping face, "She went through more than any of us did and never spoke a word about it to anyone but me and even then she never told me everything and because," he sniffs as tears start to drop, "she doesn't want any one to worry, she is always acting so cheerful even though she is slowly rotting a way from the inside out." he rubbed the tears away and picks up Jack bridal style and moves from the bed, "Let's put sis on the bed.."

They all look at him a bit shocked as Madam Pomfrey takes her to the bed and starts scanning her thoroughly now that she's in a stable state. Lily mumbles catching everyone's attention, "Mu...mum.."

Dumbledore turns to Harry and smiles weakly, "It should be lunch time now... Can you go and get Mr Draco Malfoy,?"

Harry nodded and speed out the room down the hallways to the Great hall, Draco was sitting with his friends discussing about classes and gossip. He ran up to Draco catching his attention before panting out at his confused look, "L..Lily's fainted... In infirma--" he was cut off when Draco got up in lightening speed and grabbed Harry's wrist dragging him out the hall to the infirmary. They left the hall, leaving it wondering and discussing what had happened for them to rush off in such a way.

They got to the infirmary and Draco started looking round like a crazed idiot as Harry lent over, hands on knees panting, making a mental note to build up his stamina.

Draco turned to Harry with fear and worrisome leaking from his voice from his panicked face, "Where's Lily?"

Harry panted, pointing to the door at the side, "In there..." Draco ran to the door with Harry jogging up behind him, "Where..did you.. get all that..stamina? "
