As the door closed behind Remus, he felt himself lean against it. He tried to remove the image of her limp and lifeless body from his mind as he hated the way she had been seriously weakened by what had happened to her. He knew he had to find out and the best person to ask would be Moody. After all, he had been there, hadn't he?
He suddenly found a little extra energy in his legs and he found himself being carried back towards the reception desk. He nodded to the receptionist before leaving the building and heading for the quiet alleyway he had come from before in order to return to Grimmauld Place and get some facts.
A few minutes later, Remus found himself back in the corridor of Number 12. He could hear Moody's voice coming from the kitchen so he headed that way, bracing himself to find out what had happened to Tonks. He could hear Molly's voice as well but no others so he assumed there wouldn't be anyone else in the kitchen.
As he opened the kitchen door, the two of them fell silent and looked away from him awkwardly. Remus frowned, shaking his head slightly, and said, "She doesn't look great, does she, Moody?" He ignored the way they were looking away from him and pulled up a chair at the long table there. "Could you tell me what happened?" he then asked.
Moody and Molly both looked back to him when he asked, realising he perhaps did care about her more than he ever let on in front of them. Moody said, "Myself and Kingsley found her lying just off the main track in Hogsmeade and took her straight to St Mungo's. We don't really know what happened to her other than that and we're not likely to know either unless she wakes up."
Remus scowled at the two of them then and corrected him, "You mean 'until she wakes up' surely?" He didn't want to think of Tonks not surviving. She was younger than him. That wasn't supposed to happen, was it? Losing the Order members younger than himself had never really crossed his mind and he suddenly realised how much he despised that thought.
When Moody didn't respond to his question though, Remus started to really worry about Tonks. She meant far more to him than anyone had ever realised. "She'll be fine," Remus snapped, almost as if to reassure himself. He stood up, scraping the chair sharply on the floor, before leaving the room hurriedly again to try and find Severus Snape, the only person he knew who would have enough knowledge in potions to know what the potion Tonks had been forced to take had been and whether it was likely to help her.
