Harry after leaving the hospital wing went to check on Morgan's physical well being, and he could not find the Companion anywhere. Now that he thought about it, he hasn't seen Dasher either. He asked around the school but no one has seen them since Harry lifted the curse.

Harry reached out mentally and got the sense that Morgan was in a conversation with someone or something and that she was enjoying herself to the hilt. Harry tried to find out where Morgan was but he couldn't find her.

Morgan on the other hand, felt her Chosen looking for her. :Excuse me.: she apologized, and then mentally answered her Chosen. :Yes?:

:Where are you was worried about you I know what happened with that Malfoy brat.: Harry responds

Harry heard Morgan's mental chuckle.

:I'm in the kitchen with Dasher, being treated like a queen.: Morgan replies.

:What are you talking about? I'll be there in a minute. :

Morgan mentally chuckled again, :You won't be able to find the entrance.:

: Oh and whys that?:

:Because it's a hidden entrance.: Morgan answered

:Well then the game is on then: Harry replies

:If you're going to be that way, have fun. When you give up, I will tell you where it is.: Morgan replied

Harry chuckled :hay burner you know I always liked puzzles:

:And I know within the first hour, you always give up.: Morgan replied

Harry gave her a mental raspberry and started the hunt for the kitchen.

Morgan enjoyed her Chosen's growing frustration.

Harry continued to hunt the entrance to the kitchen but so far, all he found was a dead end with a picture of a bowl of fruit.

:Give up, Chosen?: Morgan questions

Harry just huffs :Fine, you win now where is the door?:

:That picture with the bowl of fruit, tickle the pear.: Morgan replies

:What? Really I was that close: Harry groaned.

:Yes, the kitchen here, is hidden unlike the kitchen in the Collegium.: Morgan explains

Harry followed her instructions to the kitchen and found her having a meal.

Morgan looked up. :I told you, I was being treated as a queen, these creatures, know how to treat a fellow magical being.:

"Great now, I'll have to deal with a companion that got spoiled while we're on circuit." Harry teased with a chuckle.

The creatures swarmed over to harry asking him, if he wanted anything, food or drink.

Harry waved them off. "Thanks but I'm okay I just came looking for my companion."

Morgan stood up. :Thank you, I look forward to talking to all of you again.: she looked at her chosen, and began up the entrance to the kitchen. This is to say, Hogwarts seem to enlarge the entrance for the Companion.

After the two left the kitchen, Morgan led her Chosen to the courtyard.

"Now Morgan I know what happened but I want to hear your view of it before I deal with that brat." Harry states

Morgan explained what happened and she was in her right to defend herself as the Draco child threatened her with his wand.

As Harry learned all this, his anger grew "That little brat need a few hours with Capt. Kero."

:And Sayvil.: Morgan commented :He's a child, compare to you. So do not beat him or worse.:

:Oh, don't worry, I won't beat him, but he will regret trying to hurt you.: harry answers

:I think he does regret it, and I will point out, he has mindspeech, but not enough to cause problems.: Morgan replied as she shook her head.

Harry paced back and forth "Fine, so he has a minor gift, that's all the more reason; I need to talk with him and get this mess sorted out."

Morgan watched as her Chosen wore a path in the ground. However, said nothing, Companions were there to provide advice, guidance, friendship, and love. They were never allowed to interfere with their Chosen's own judgment. :I have been keeping my ears open, and it appears that these wizards do not know what Shielding is, all the first years and some of the older ones keep talking about accidental magic that happens around the non-gifted.:

"What no shielding at all what kind of school is this?" Harry questions

:I do not know.: Morgan responds

Harry stopped pacing turned to look at her "I'll have to speak with the deputy headmistress we need to protect these children."

:One issue at a time, Chosen.: Morgan replies. :Now, I suggest you prepare yourself to confront a wayward student who needs a lesson on how to treat Companions.:

"Right let's fine the little child and 'guide' him in the proper manner of treating a companion." Harry headed out the door making his way to the main hall as it was close to lunchtime.

Morgan followed Harry as they went into Great Hall. Morgan took her place at Dasher's side behind the staff table.

Harry walked over to the Slytherin table and look for Malfoy " Mr. Malfoy, if you would come with me please, we need to talk."

Draco stood up and his cronies began to stand up as well.

Harry glared at the other two.

Harry turned on his booted heel and walked out and into the corridor. The Herald-mage leaned against the wall with his boot against it, and crossed his arms. "What makes you entitled to try and ride a creature that does not belong to you?"

Draco looked at him. "I don't think at all I just saw them as beast nothing more."

"That's the problem with all highborn, pure blood whatever; they never seem to think first." Harry growled out. "Never go near Morgan, or I will throw you into the lake with your best clothes on!"

"Yes sir, it won't happen again." Draco said in a low voice.

Harry nods curtly, "Oh and another thing, I wouldn't go telling your father, after all would he even believe you?"

Draco just nods and then spoke in a soft voice once more "Can you tell your companion that I'm sorry." The blonde stood and turned to head back to his dorm.

"I could, but I won't. I know she won't forgive you." Harry answers, and then he turned and went back into the hall. He walked up to Hermione. "Ask away, I know you're near dying."

Hermione snapped her head up and opened her mouth to begin the million questions when the words failed her.

"Let's start with the castle shaking…I unleash a massive amount of magic to counter the curse attached to your defense classroom." Harry explained

Suddenly the clink of a fork being dropped on a plate, and Harry jerked as he shot by an arrow.

Tears began to flow freely down Harry's face as Corina sprinted up the aisle and both Heralds gripped each other in an embrace.

"Why him?" Corina sobbed "Why Stephan?"

The hall fell into silence at the scene before them.

"I don't know, dearheart. I don't know." Harry whispered "Great good gods." He looked at Morgan, who was looking lost, as she was bowled over with grief.

After a several minutes, the students slowly and respectfully left the room.

The Two Companions moved over to their chosen. Harry let go one arm go and hugged Morgan's face to him while hugging Corina's waist.

Corina copied his movement then just leaned her head in to Harry's chest.

The professors, who stayed behind, watched and were amazed at the circle of love presented in front of them.

As they watched this professor sprout finally spoke, "I'm sorry to interrupt but what happen just now?"

Harry looked up from the circle that they had formed, Corina was still crying, she couldn't answer. "Heralds treat each other as brothers and sisters, we are interconnected, we can tell when another one of us….dies."
