Its was a cold winter morning on the grounds of Hogwarts. No one dare to go outside of the warm castle walls. All but Hagrid who was walking the grounds, making sure no animal was hurt.
The snow had already made a nice white coat on the grounds. It would have been so easy for Hagrid to miss her. On the ground not far from the black lake laid a pale small girl. Her pale white skin blinded in to the fresh white snow. Her long black hair lay around her. A large brown cape was the only warmth she had. He moved closer to the girl seeing clearly that something or one had attack the poor girl. Cuts and burse cover her hands and face, from what he could see. They were one deep cut through her bottom lip.
Hagrid moved closer to her and picked her up. She weights nothing to him, and to anyone. She was small and skinny. He moved her closer to himself having her head lay on his chest. Using his own body heat to warm her own. Slowly her chest moved up and down as she breathed. He ran her inside to the safety and warmth of the castle wall. Not stopping in fear that she might not make it.
By the time Hagrid got into the hospital wing. Madam Pomfrey was fixing up Hermione hand. She was talking to Harry in potions and cut her own hand.
"How is that dear?" She asked looking over it, making sure it was all healed up.
"Much better, thank you." Hermione replied then her eyes looked to a breathless Hagrid who was holding a girl, "Who that Hagrid?"
"oi don't know. Find her by the lake. Looks to gotten into a fight with something." He said, "Poor thing." Madam Pomfrey showed him a bed to lay her on. Hagrid slowly laid her down making sure she is fine.
Hermione gasped when she saw what state that girl was in. Madam Pomfrey slowly taking off the cape showing her jeans and black sweater covered in dirt and rip in random places.
"Hagrid, would you mind going to get the headmaster?"She asked him. Hagrid nodded and want to get him. She looked then to Hermione, "hand me that blanket." Hermione turned and with her good hand handed it to her. Madam Pomfrey wrapped it around her along with the blanket that was on the bed. "No worries dear we well get you warmed up and better in no time." She said touching her pale face. She got up and want to get things around to clean the girl, shocked that anyone could do such and thing to such a small weak thing. Then out of nowhere the girl started to moved wincing a bit.
"Madam Pomfrey!" Hermione yelled. She came out running with a tray of potions and things to clean her up.
"What is it Miss. Granger?" She asked coming closer to the two young girls.
"She moved. I think she's waking up." Hermione said looking back to the girl. She moved her head again and her eyes flicked.
Madam Pomfrey want to her side just as the girl began to open her eyes showing her bright green eyes. She looked around and as she looked to Hermione and Madam Pomfrey she began to back away. But the pain was to much for her, making her grab her side and winced. Falling back on the bed.
"Dear you must rest." Madam Pomfrey said helping her back down, "your safe here. What your name?" She asked, the girl said nothing but she moved her hand making shapes. Both Hermione and Madam Pomfrey were confessed and looked to each other.
"Her name is Emily if I got the spelling right." They turned seeing Professor Dumbledore at the door. He slowly made his was over to them, "She deaf." He said. He turned to face the girl named Emily. "' you worried your father.'" Dumbledore said as he moved his hands around just like Emily did.
"' I'm Sorry.'" She said and moved her hand in a circle motion over her chest. Her voice was soft and muffled. Much like if you were hearing someone talk when you had ear plugs in.
"Professor?" Hermione asked, "What that you're doing with your hands?"
"'It's called sign language. Movement of the hands, that mean letter or words.'" Dumbledore said, "'Its how the deaf talk to each other.'" Dumbledore said and sign to Emily who nodded. "'What happen to you?'" He asked the young girl.
"' it's unclear.'" She said moving her hand fast again, "'I got off the plane tired, long trip, sleep a lot. A man grabbed my arm and said he was going to take me to my father."
"How did she know what the man saying?" Hermione asked again watching Dumbledore hand move just as fast as Emily's did. Emily turned to her and point to her lips.
"I can read lips." Emily said and smiled. Then she turned back to Dumbledore. "' I got in to a black car where a snake man was wait and a man with long blonde hair.'" Dumbledore looked shocked, and then she stop talking and just sign. 'The snake man asked why I was here. What I knew about the order and about you. I said nothing. Then it's unclear.' She closed her eyes trying to think. Dumbledore placed a hand on Emily shoulder then looked to Hermione.
"You can return to your class." Dumbledore said to her. Hermione nodded to his words then left, looking back to Emily one last time before leaving out the door.
Emily looked to Dumbledore, her eyes full of pain. He touched her face softly with the back of his hand, noticing her ears but no longer had her hearing aids on.
'Hearing aids, where?' He asked her no longer needing to speak. It was just Emily and himself.
'The Snake man took them.' She signed, 'where father?'
'On his way he had to finish his class, first.' Emily nodded and winced as she try to seat up. Madam Pomfrey brought her another pillow and handed her a potion to stop the pain.
Emily drank the potion then made a face. Dumbledore laugh a little and rubbed her head seeing more of the cuts and burses. He was worried, what all did they do to her? He thoughted, When Emily looked back up to him, he began to sign to her and talk.
"' I want Madam Pomfrey to look over you. Is that ok?'" Emily nodded to the headmaster words.
Madam Pomfrey helped Emily out of bed and toke her to a back room. Dumbledore looked to the cloak that sat next to her bed. It was huge, way to big for her tiny frame. It was also covered in mud and dirt with rips all over.
Severus ran in out of breath. After hearing his daughter was found.
"Where is she?" He asked as he taking in some deep breaths.
"Poppy looking over her as we speak." Dumbledore said and as he spoke she came back out all Cleaned and in clean pair of night cloths. Emily looked up and saw her father, running into his arms. Severus held her close, kissing the top of her head. He pulled away from her looking down at her, moving some of her hair behind her ear.
'Where were you? Are you ok?' Severus signed fast, so worried about his daughter.
'Don't know.' Then she began to tell him what she told Dumbledore. Severus looked to him with fear in his eyes.
"she knows nothing of the order. Why would they do that?" Severus said helping his daughter lay down in the bed, not looking to her so she won't know what he was saying.
"I have been writing letters to the headmistress of her school, about her and everything. Someone must have got one of the letters and waited for Emily at the air port." Dumbledore said.
Severus looked down to her and sign 'sleep'. She didn't need to fight with him on that. The potion she took was making her sleepy. Soon she closed her eyes and was out cold into a deep sleep. Severus looked to Madam Pomfrey.
"What all happen to her?" Severus asked her.
"A few cuts and burses, two broken ribs and that's it nothing more." She said cleaning up everything, "she was also really cold. So I gave her a potion to make sure she doesn't get a cold or anything like worse." She went for the large cloak. Looking over it and spotting to letters. "Albus." She said showing him the cloak. She pointing out the letters.

Dumbledore saw this and then showed to Severus.
"I think you should return it. See why they wanted her?" Dumbledore said looking to Emily as she slept, "we'll call you when she wakes." Severus nodded taking one last look to his daughter then left with the cloak in hand.
"Albus why is Severus so kind to this child? I have never seen this side of him." Madam Pomfrey asked," I know she his daughter, just I see how he with the other children."
"Because she all he has lift of lily." The headmaster said
"She Lily and Severus Child?" she asked watching Dumbledore nodded.
"Yes, please don't tell her or Harry. It's to much for them to know now." Dumbledore said.
"I won't sir." They both watched Emily sleeping.
