Chapter Six: Problems Arise

Ginny came back after she told Ron as she rubbed her forehead from the headache that was just starting to form. She talked to Harry that Ron was going to stop by later on this evening.

"Gin, Ron can care for the girls and Hermione and it would be a great time for us to have some alone time," Harry stated in a sexy voice.

"Oh Harry, not now," Ginny said as she kissed his lips and walked away.

Harry smiled at her as he knew she was getting sexually frustrated, like he was. He walked up the stairs to say hello to his son and his nieces.

An hour later, the family sat down to eat the supper that Mook had made for them. Ginny and Harry talked with the twins and made sure they had enough to eat and then let them go play again. They sat down and waited for Ron to come.

Soon dust flew and a boom was heard, Harry and Ginny got up fast and took out their wands ready to defend their family. Mirabel held onto Sakura as James was within Sakura's arms; both James and Sakura were crying and Mirabel was starting to cry, too.

"Harry! Ginny! Hermione needs to clean out her fireplace," a deep voice bellowed.

Sakura placed down James. "Uncle!" she screamed as she raced into the dust cloud that was still in the room.

Harry waved his wand and made the dust disappear; they could see Ron and Sakura covered with soot from head to toe as James and Mirabel raced into the soot, too. They rolled their eyes and laughed at the picture this would make as Ginny cast a charm to take a picture.

"Hello, my girls, and James," Ron said as he hugged each one of his nieces and his nephew. "You need a bath…" Ron looked at himself and muttered, "I do, too."

Ginny walked up and took Sakura and Mirabel upstairs to have a bath. Harry nodded his head at Ron and then took James for his bath as Ron followed into the room which was his for the holidays.

Ten minutes later, the twins and James were clean again and then sent up to bed. Ron read them a story, and then came back downstairs.

"So, how is Hermione?" Ron asked.

"Not so well, from what I heard." Harry told him.

Ron nodded his head. "They think someone has cursed Hermione?"

Ginny answered this time," Yes, Ron."

They had talked over an hour more until Ginny went to bed. Ron and Harry stayed up and talked some more about Hermione's strange sickness and then Ron classes. Then they went to bed for the night.

Beep! Beep! Beep!

The magically machine started to beep louder and louder. Suddenly, six healers raced into the room.

"Get Healer Boren now!" Healer Smith yelled as he started waving his wand, muttering spell after spell to insure that the patient would be alive.

Within moments, Healer Boren raced into the room as she looked at her new patient and at her partners.

"I need oil of peppermint, mist of berries, and a few scales of green dragon's hide," she told them. She then took over the waving of her wand as her partners raced out to get the items she needed.

They came back and Healer Boren took her three items and placed them onto the table. She slowly mixed in the mist of berries and a few of the green dragon's scales into a pot that was burning the two items together. She called over one person to mix them together for two minutes as she took the oil of peppermint.

Healer Boren took it over to her patient, pouring the oil onto the patient, Hermione Granger. She rubbed the oil gently into her skin and then poured four drops into Hermione's mouth, coaxing her to swallow it down. She then took the pot and placed a cooling charm on it as she placed the pot near Hermione's face as she took her wand and waved some of the mix giving some in Hermione's mouth.

"We'll see if this works," Healer Boren stated as she and the rest left the room, not even noticing that Hermione's arm was disappearing.

Morning came as Ginny heard an owl snapping on the window. It was an annoying sound; Ginny got up and walked over to the window and opened it. She took the parchment from the owl and then gave it some food and a drink. She opened the parchment to read that Professor McGonagall needed her to teach a class for Professor Flitwick, as he was out on a family emergency and to bring back Ronald Weasley, too.

She sighed at this and then woke up Harry, then told him to wake up Ron. She then went into the shower.

The twins were dropped off at daycare by Harry and then he dropped James at Mrs. Weasley's house. Hours later, Harry picked up the girls and then took them to their grandparent's house, Hermione's parents, and then told them what was going on but he left out that she was the one sick. Instead Harry just told them that she had important meeting and lessons to teach and that she would be coming home very later.

He went back and made sure that Ginny was okay at Hogwarts then went to St. Mungo's to see if anything had changed.

Draco got home with Damien at his side, as Draco recalled a memory about Hermione and him together burning their sixth year. The memory itself was complex and confusing to him as it was about Damien. He let Damien go with Silk to play in his room until dinner as he thought nothing more about the memory as he took himself up towards his office to try and get some work done.

"Damn it." He muttered not even fifteen minutes into his tried work. He was very worried about Hermione and her being in the hospital. Draco tried to read some papers once more, when he pushed himself up in a hurry spilling his papers onto the floor with angry.

He sighed at the mess him made and waved his wand. His reading papers were back on his desk. Draco couldn't get his work done, when his mind and his heart weren't here. They were both on Hermione. He would need to check it out more tomorrow.

Hermione woke up to see bright lights hurting her eyes. She closed them then slowly opened them. Hermione felt drained and tired as also felt somewhat better than before. Then she looked around to see Healer Boren coming into her room. She smiled at her and then stated," Hello, Healer Boren."

"Hermione, how do you feel now?" she asked.

"Better but not better, it feels like I'm disappearing in a way." Hermione stated to her. Hermione's eyes widened as she remembered a curse from the dark spells book she read over three years ago.

"Healer Boren, I recall a dark spell called Forsvinder for evigt. It means disappear forever. I'm not sure if it can be cured," Hermione told her as she then cried into her hands.

Healer Boren stood there shocked as she processed this new information. She waved her wand at Hermione to calm her down and placed her into a deep sleep again. She raced out and down towards the medical library to see about this curse.

Hours later, Healer Boren read everything on this curse. She found out that was dangerous and it could be the end of the cursed person. She looked at a potion that would cure Hermione and it would be hard to get. The ingredients were the blood of the cursed person, the curser, blood of her children and blood of her love, hairs from each one and then the jewel of the heart.
