I'm back. Yeah

Percy's POV

I feel the cook water run down my back and slouch with relief. ahh I can feel it healing those cuts. From what I can tell, the wizards medicine doesn't work on me. Or it's just a REALLY slow working kind.

I reach down into my pocket, and pull out some ambrosia and nectar. Thankfully they didn't change me into hospital clothes. That would suck.

I pull off my shirt, and take a look at the wounds. I start to feel self conscious about all my scars, but brush the feeling away. Wizards don't have security cameras.

I pour the nectar in the cuts and feel another wave of relief. I debate risking the ambrosia, then decide against it. I pull my shirt back on, then flop back in the bed, slightly wincing as I hit the soft mattress.

The door suddenly opens and, in a split second decision I, after slightly jumping up, flop down and pretend to be asleep, but hold riptide tightly to my chest.

The door closes and nothing happens.

It's actually quite disturbing that whoever just came in is either invisible… or not thinking that anyone's here. Hopefully the second one.

I lay there for a while, waiting to be attacked my adrenaline lasts longer than most mortals… wizards? I dunno. But I pretend to relax just to be safe.

Nothing moves and slowly I start to fall asleep.

_sorry about the short POV_

Harry's POV (the next day)

I actually got a little sleep last night! Yaay!

Why is this actually something that I'm happy about…

Oh, whatever.

Today's Sunday, so breakfast. Yeah breakfast then visit Percy.

I'm still a little confused about what happened last night. I can't discuss it with Hermione or Ron, I didn't tell them I was going to see him, and frankly they would be mad it they were left out, and anyways I was probably just tired. There's no potion that can heal someone that fast. None.

When I left I was pretty sure that he was asleep. I probably should have waited longer, so that I could be sure, but I was just so tired.

But first breakfast.

I'm starting to sound like Ron.

I roll out of bed and drag myself across the stone floor, grab my robes and walk into the bathroom. Everyone else is waking up, so I get dressed quickly, and run downstairs to eat.

Sometimes I really hate those moving stairs, I mean they're cool and everything, but at 7:30 in the morning when I just woke up?! Nope.

But I get down there eventually. I sit at the table next to Hermione. If course she is like the first one down here.

Ron eventually joins us and aots down to a (while normal for him) HUGE plate of food. We all decide to go see Percy after we finish (sorry I don't know what you guys eat in England…) our delicious breakfast.

I won't bore you with the details of breakfast. We didn't talk about much, just small talk, ya know how did you sleep and all that.

Now we get to go see Percy.

As we were walking there I remembered "uh, Hermione, did you find that spell?"

"Oh, yeah it's uh… here let me demonstrate on…" I volunteer a quill, they still work, no matter the color, and hold it out to her " thanks, you just… augiaform," the feather turns bright blue, "yeah, that's the spell"

"Okay thanks!" I smile at her, then quicken my pace so that Percy is unable to kill someone for the blue food coloring.

Which, thinking back, the house elves don't have…

We're all panting when we reach the hospital wing, and, after catching our breaths we go in. We walk over to Percy's bed, and sit down to wait for him to wake up.

I pull out my potions work, an half foot essay that I'm about halfway done. No one but Snape would give us homework on the first day of school.

Slightly considering just writing don't, or they'll explode in your teachers face which isn't necessarily a bad thing… I end the page with the typical first grade and that is why you must brew perfect potions.

What? Does it look like I care?

"Whatcha doing?" Percy startles me. I flipped around and relax as I see him sitting upright on as bed.

"Potions."

"Uh… I don't have that work… could you um... ask Draco to get it for me… I mean if that's okay with you.."

"I'll ask Snape for an extra copy to bring to you tomorrow."

"Thanks, so what's up. You look tired"

I decide that telling him that I went to watch him sleep last night is probably a bad idea, so I say "Hermione kept me up reading books about Hippogriffs, so we can figure out why he attacked you and Malfoy."

"Oh… Draco was being a little rude. Buckbeak didn't like that very much."

"Well that still doesn't explain why he attacked you"

Percy looks contradicted for a moment, then says "I'll help you look. Can't hurt" I hand him the Hippogriff book, the one written in Hippogriff and wait for his reaction.

But nothing happens

He flips a few pages, and then looks up "why are you staring?"

Hermione decides that now is a good time to join in the conversation "but.. you… the book… speak Hippogriff…"

Percy looks quizzically at us. "That book… it's written by a Hippogriff. We haven't been able to translate it"

He mutters something under his breath, "maybe being like… almost killed by one makes you able to like talk to one?"

sorry It's late guys...
