Chapter 29: The Last Blacks

 "Where is he?

"Remus took him back to Grimmauld before Fudge got there."

"How is he doing?"

"He... Losing her again will take a toll on him. And I don't think seeing Amelia collapse helped the situation."

"Is she going to be okay?"

"She's lost a lot of blood and her shoulder was dislocated. Madam Pomfrey fixed her up as best as she could for the moment. There will be some scarring. However, it's her mental state that I worry about."

Those voices. The sounded so familiar. One of them had a deeper voice of a man while the other sounded younger. I tried to open my eyes to help solve the mystery, but they were glued shut. There was a dull ache all over my body, especially across my chest and in the back of my head. When there was a soft breeze, my cheek would sting. I felt myself laying on something soft and warm and oh so comfy. I think I'll just lay here for a bit longer...

"When do you think she'll wake?"

"Madam Pomfrey can't tell. She says only time can at this point."

"It's already been two days!"

"With what she just went through, I wouldn't blame her for not wanting to wake up at all. She got separated from us and no one knows what happened to her."

"Are they true then? The rumors about what happened to you at the Department of Mysteries?"

Silence.

"I think the whole ordeal is still fresh for them, Zendaya. Best to give them peace for now."

*

"I can't say I blame you. After all, you're not the one that caused this mess. When you wake up, find me. We need to talk about what's going to happen-"

"Hey! What are you doing here, Nott?"

"Mind your own business, Weasley."

"Get away from her!"

"I can't check on my fellow classmate? Piss off."

*

"Bloody hell, who is sending her all the chocolate and flowers?"

"Don't pry, Ron."

"What? She's getting more chocolate than- Hey! Why's Fred sending her all of this?"

"Ron-!"

"His name is on every single one of these flowers!"

"He's being nice, which you currently are not. Stop prying!"

*

"Do you think she'll wake up before term is over?"

"She still has a few more days."

"But what if she doesn't wake up by then?"

"Madam Pomfrey told me that they'll transport her to St. Mungo's."

"I overheard one of the Aurors talking. They said it looks like she was hit with some spell no one has seen before. That's why her chest and stomach are all bandaged up like that. Neither Madam Pomfrey or the Aurors know if the spell has any side-effects or not. It's a wonder they haven't moved her to St. Mungo's already."

"I knew she was going to get herself into trouble. And I helped her. I didn't think something like this would happen!"

"Don't beat yourself up. You of all people should know that if she wanted to go she would have found a way. With or without your help."
