It took about an hour for them to calm down. Haley went back to her own seat still sniffling. Arthur cleared his throat before saying, "Sweetheart, is there anything else you want us to know right now?"

Haley just presented her arms in response. They see large letters on each arm. Her left arm read FREAK and her right arm read WHORE. If Molly had any tears left she would cried now. These people were monsters.

"Who could do something like that?" Molly whispered as she ran her hand over the scars lightly causing Haley to slightly flinch. Molly took her hand back. "We need to get you looked over."

"What do you mean?"

"You need to be looked at by a healer," Arthur explained.

"Healer? Like a doctor? At a hospital? I can't go to a hospital!" Haley said slightly panicked.

Arthur noticed the urgency in her voice and said, "I have a friend that's a healer. If we got her to come here would you let her take a look at your injuries so she can heal them?"

Haley thought about it for a long time before saying, "No hospital?"

"No hospital," Arthur said firmly.

Haley nodded, "Okay."

"Good! You two go into the living room and I will call her," Arthur said. He really just wanted Haley out of the room so he could use the floo.

Once they were out Arthur took a pinch of floo and said, "Hogwarts Hospital Wing!" and disappeared in the flames.

888

When Arthur arrived he saw that the wing was empty. This wasn't surprising because it was summer break.

"Poppy!?" Arthur called.

"Arthur? What are you doing here?" a voice asked. He turned around to see Albus Dumbledore and Minerva McGonagall.

"Oh hello, Albus, Minerva. I'm looking for Poppy. It's kinda important."

"Did someone call?" Poppy asked as she came out of her office. "Arthur, what are you doing here?"

"I was hoping you would make a house call. It's kind of important."

Albus asked, "Are the children alright?"

"Yes but you see when we took them to the park today we met someone. Her name is Haley. Her aunt and uncle have been badly abusing her and they left town. She wasn't even allowed to stay at the house. She had spent the night in the park. We took her home with us last night. This morning we she took a shower and we gave her some of Ginny's clothes and we saw several cuts on her back and…" Arthur said this all very panicky and then he seemed to have problems speaking, "She has marks on her arms. Her so called family carved words on her arms. We are also pretty sure she was sexual assaulted."

Once Arthur was done Poppy said, "I'll go get my supplies!" and ran off.

Minerva was positively shaking. She may not know the girl but she didn't like the thought of anyone getting hurt.

Albus was extremely worried and suspicious, "Arthur, how old is this girl?"

"Eight but she turns nine on the 31st."

"What color are her eyes?" Albus asked although he was almost sure he knew the answer.

"They are a beautiful shade of green. Why?"

Minerva caught on and gasped, "Albus, you don't actually think…"

"Arthur where is the park you found her?" Albus continued to question.

"Little Whinging," Arthur answer to Albus' dismay.

"I TOLD YOU!" Minerva shouted, "I told you they were the worse sort of muggles!"

"Minerva! What are you talking about?!" asked a shocked Arthur.

Albus cleared his throat and said, "I believe the young girl in your care may be none other than Haley James Potter."

"Oh my god," Arthur whispered to himself before saying out loud, "She always has hair in her face. I've never seen her forehead. I don't know if the scars there."

"ALBUS PERCIVAL WULFRIC BRIAN DUMBLEDORE! You better hope your wrong!"

"Minerva what are you shouting about?" Poppy asked confused.

Albus sighed and said, "We are almost positive that the poor muggle that Arthur is looking after is actually none other than the famous Haley Potter."

"What but… What… You… YOU TOLD ME SHE WAS SAFE!"

"I thought she was!"

Arthur decided to interrupt before one of the witches started throwing hexes, "Maybe we should get going. I don't want Haley to wait any longer than necessary. Oh and by the way she has no idea about magic. We have been slightly Slytherin when we used it."

"Would it be possible for us to come along to make sure it's her?" Albus asked.

"I guess so but don't crowd her she is shy."
