….

Andromenda stared at the place in the carpet where the Lynx had been. Kinsley's patronus had just vanished. It had come to tell her quite briefly that Sirius had just been killed at the ministry by no less than her own sister, Bellatrix. The Lynx also said that Bellatrix had also hurt Tonks who was now at St. Mungo's.

It took her a moment to let it all sink in. She stared with wide eyes as the patronus faded into nothingness.

Andromenda was shaken to reality when she realized that she needed to get to the hospital.

She stood up from the couch on which she had been sitting, feeling heavier with grief. She has only just gotten to know her cousin again and now he was gone. She wasn't sure which was better, Azkaban or being dead. She walked over to the closet. She grabbed the first cloak she saw. She also threw on a pair of boots that went almost up to her knees.

She closed her eyes and apperated into the waiting room of St. Mungo's.

There was a young man standing at the counter. She walked up and he introduced himself as Mr. Collins.

"My name is Andromenda Tonks I am here to see my daughter, Nymphadora Tonks. I believe she was brought in here earlier this evening."

"Yes, Ms. Tonks. She is on floor two. After getting off the elevator, go down the hall. When you get to the end, take a right and she is in room 661. I happened to be working as a healer when she came in. Other healers explained what happened. I'm terribly sorry."

"Thanks" Andromenda said, turning off to elevators. One opened a moment later. A depressed looking couple got out. She gave them a moment that jumped in not being able to press the level two button fast enough.

The doors closed and then the elevator shot up.

When it reached floor two, she ran out. Following Mr. Collin's instructions, she found room 661.

She found the door to be unlocked because Tonks wasn't contagious. She opened it and stepped inside. Tonks was in bed reading the Quibbler. She looked awful. She was extremely pale, she had a large gash the ran down her face, she guessed it had to be from dark magic or they could repair it with ease. Her hair was also brown. Andromenda hadn't seen t like that since she was really young.

Beside her, Remus Lupin sat in a chair reading a long novel. She suddenly felt guilty. He had known Sirius even better than her, being one of his best mates.

He noticed her standing there. "Dora, your mum is here," he said tapping her on the shoulder.

Tonks looked up. "Mum!" She said, a smile on her lips but her eyes were dark and didn't meet her mother's.

Andromenda pulled up another chair on the opposite side of the bed. Any signs of happiness disappeared from Tonks's face.

"I'm sorry," Tonks said abruptly.

"What do you mean?" Andromenda said, feeling shocked by the sudden statement. Remus put his face in his hands as if he knew exactly where this was going.

"I thought Kinsley told you what happened!" she said with a note of accusation in her voice.

"Of course he did, or else I wouldn't be here." She relied calmly

"It's my fault, mom. My fault Sirius died."

Lupin entered the conversation. "It's not her fault. I've been trying to tell her this this whole time, but she won't listen." Tonks looked down but Andromenda stared at him. "Before Sirius died, Dora was battling your sister. Bellatrix struck her down. Then, Sirius came to take over and that's when he…..died."

"Nymphadora Tonks. This is not your fault, okay? What happened to you could have happened to any of us.
