"Is Tori alright?" Draco asked stepping forward. The girl was two years his younger, and he would never tell Daphne but he always preferred the brunette to her older sister.
"She hasn't woken up I'm afraid." The healer said.
"What are you doing here?" Fred asked.
"Harry sent us to check if you were really okay here but then somebody shot at Tori." Oliver said staring at the girl sleeping on the cot.
As Edmund reached the doorway, he saw Fred for the first time since his arrival as a caring person. He started to cry and embraced the light haired shorter man in the infirmary. Edmund gave them a minute blocking the door as everyone else started to arrive. Everyone but Luna and Draco seemed to great him warmly. Even young Teddy was happy to see this new boy.
He kissed Luna's cheek as if a social requirement and shook Draco's hand but there seemed to be some tension and the blonde was focused on the girl on the cot anyway.
"Fred, care to introduce us?" Tucker asked.
"Oh right. This is Oliver Wood. The greatest team Gryffindor Quidditch Captain alive." Fred said with a smile across his face.
"Don't tell your brother's girlfriend that." Oliver winked.
"Don't forget Lady Wood." Adair said.
"Lady Wood? How much have we missed?" Draco asked turning to Oliver. He nervously scratched the back of his head and tried to cough to cover up his raised pitch.
"Well, actually Adair he's not my lady. She's just a lady." Oliver said.
"Tori Greengrass is a friend of mine." Draco said patting the keeper on the back.
"Oh. Well perhaps you can help us convince Mr. Potter to leave. After all you've ordered him to much more straining things." Aslan winked almost.
"How do you know that?" Oliver asked.
"He knows everything." Peter answered.
"Well actually Harry wants to make sure you guys are all okay. But why aren't you coming back I mean George misses you an awful lot." Oliver said to Fred.
"I want to go. But they need me here." Fred said.
"Fred, no, they need me and Draco here. You need to go home." Luna said placing her hand on his shoulder.
"You all do." Astoria said sitting up. Draco sat down on the end of her bed.
"Miss you have to understand-" Edmund began to say but she shook her head.
"They have families that miss them terribly." Astoria said.
"Not all of us-" Remus began to say.
"Andromeda is already trying to cope with the loss of her daughter, and you two are the last two things she has of Tonks." As Astoria spoke, Teddy looked up to his Dad.
"She's taken in Narcissa whose husband left her to die while she worried about the safety of her son." Astoria said changing direction to Draco.
"Thank god Blaise convinced Neville to help him save her. Speaking of Neville he's trying to take care of Xenophilius Lovegood whose slowly loosing it over his daughter." Astoria's words dug at Luna's skin.
"The pair are staying with the Weasleys. I mean Molly Weasley it's like she's trying to bring as many people in the house as possible to forget about George's missing other half." Astoria tried to stand up but Oliver jumped over to grab her shoulder helping her.
"Not to mention nobody's been given any actual time to recover. We've all put our efforts into bringing you guys home." She said.
"Well Harry didn't have to-" Sirius began stepping forward.
"Harry is sick. He sick of blaming himself, he is sick of people dying, he is sick of fighting. We all are." Astoria said, causing Sirius to tear up a bit imagining his god son.
"Tori, please you're working yourself up." Oliver said.
"I'm just sick of everything, Ollie." Astoria said before she fell to the ground. Oliver had tried to catch her but she fell too fast. Draco shouted for a nurse and she rushed in the room. Oliver helped her back onto the bed and the nurse check her vitals.
"Why don't we leave Miss Greengrass to rest?" Aslan said.
"Can I stay?" Fred asked.
"I suppose." The nurse replied.
Oliver and Fred were the only ones to stay with Astoria. Teddy yawned so Remus and Sirius went back to their sleeping quarters to put him to bed. Susan and Caspian left as well to retire to bed and Tucker brought Adair with him to get some food. Peter and Alaina followed Aslan to the throne room. The two youngest rulers were left with the pair of blondes.
"You're quiet." Edmund said, not really referring to either wizard just as a statement. They walked in silence, Edmund wished he could say it was comfortable but it wasn't, until they found themselves near the gazebo.
"Do you think Harry is really going crazy?" Draco asked, turning to Luna.
"You should of seen him, he looked like he hadn't slept in months." Luna said.
"I kind of miss picking on Weasel and Granger a little bit." Draco said with an empty laugh.
"Yeah, I mean did you see the way Hermione's hair seemed to puff up whenever you came near? It was like a sense of sorts." Luna said.
"You guys should go home." Edmund said staring off nowhere in particular. The two looked at him oddly but Lucy just nodded her head in agreement.
"From what your friend said Draco they need you." Lucy said.
"No, Astoria was just exaggerating. No one but my mother needs me." Draco said.
"Draco that's ridiculous. You've got more people than I do. There's your mom, your aunt, Teddy, Blaise, Snape, Pansy, Nott, Goyle, the Greengrass sisters." She said.
"You've got your dad, Harry, Neville, Hermione, the entire Weasley family, all of Gryffindor." Draco said.
"Sounds like you have a lot of people who care about you." Lucy interrupted.
"We've only got one person for the each of us period." Edmund said.
"Alaina, Tucker, Caspian, and Aslan." Lucy said.
"And that last one is a lion." Edmund piggy backed.
"You've got a whole nation." Draco said motioning with his hands.
"Yeah but it's not the same. We rule them." Edmund shrugged.
"Well you've got us." Luna said and Edmund smiled. Luna laid her head on Edmund's shoulder. Draco looked at the interaction between the two, and he felt Lucy slip her hand into his.
"I don't want to leave." Draco said.
"Me neither." Luna replied.
Night fall came and everyone took this time to rest. Then early the next morning Luna and Draco stood in the throne room waiting for their friends. The Kings and Queens were behind them in their chairs, and Tucker had sent to get them.
Fred held Teddy in his arms, Sirius had his arm around Remus' shoulders while Oliver was practically carrying Astoria. Peter went to stand but Edmund shook his head at his brother and he sat back down, this was for Luna and Draco to do.
"What's going on?" Fred was the first to speak.
"We have to stay here, but you do not. We have reasons to go home, but yours are more important." Draco said.
"But-" Fred tried to interrupt.
"Fred, George needs you. You are his other half, even in death I can't imagine you two being separated and I know this is killing the both of you." Luna said.
"Remus, you have to take Teddy home. You know that the pair of you need Andromeda and Ted as much as they need you." Draco continued.
"And Sirius, you as well as Remus, are the closest Harry has to his parents. He needs you now more than ever." Luna finished off.
"But what about your families?" Sirius asked.
"We'll need you to be there for them." Draco said.
Then there was a blood curling scream. Astoria fell to the ground and Oliver knelt down to her, while Draco ran to her side as well. Her eyes were grey and she strained against herself screaming.
"What do you see, Tori?" Aslan asked her.
"What kind of question is that?" Oliver said dumbfounded at the lion's question. The lion placed his paw on her shoulder and closing his eyes and then Astoria stopped screaming. Her eyes returned to their normal color before she collapsed into Oliver's arms asleep.
"What was that?" Fred said astounded.
"A vision. Has the girl ever had one before?" Aslan asked.
"No, I don't even think she's taken Divination." Draco said.
"What was the vision about?" Edmund asked.
"Tori and Oliver must stay here." Aslan said.
"What, so we get to go home and they have to stay here? Not happening." Fred shook his head.
"It's not up for discussion!" Aslan shouted and left the room.
"He never yells." Lucy said.
"Come on let's get Astoria into a bed and then you guys have to go back." Draco said lifting the younger sister of his friend in his arms.
"Fine, but how are we going to explain this sudden change to Harry?" Fred asked.
Fred held Teddy in his arms as they flew across the beautiful nation of Narnia, he was kind of upset that he wouldn't see this place anymore. "There!"
They landed right by a cottage where Harry was sitting outside on the porch with his head in his hands. Remus took Teddy from Fred and Sirius walked over to the boy. He placed his hand on his shoulder.
"What is it, Gin?" Harry mumbled in his hands.
"I don't know, why don't you ask her?" Sirius said sitting down next to him.
"Sirius!" Harry shouted hugging him. Sirius laughed but Harry's tears dripped on the older man's shoulder. Ron and Hermione came out to see them embracing.
"Sirius!" Hermione said.
"Hey what are we chop liver?" Fred said as him and Remus came out from behind the cottage.
"Freddie!" Ron shouted running past Harry and embracing his brother.
"Remus!" Hermione said walking to her former professor.
"Hermy! Ronny! Harry!" Teddy shouted and they all laughed.
"But wait, where's Luna and Draco? And Oliver and Astoria?" Harry asked.
"Harry." Sirius said carefully.
"Just tell me." Harry said.
"Luna and Draco have to stay here because of a prophecy. Oliver and Astoria were apparently part of it too. Astoria got a vision while she was there." Fred said.
"We have to get home, before we destroy their world at its seams." Remus said looking around.
