A Marauder's Daughter
Chapter Thirty-Seven
Pray
The family looked up and saw Severus and Neville walk into the room. Neville closed the door behind him with a soft click. Remus walked into the room. They didn't say a word but only stepped aside. The werewolf stood behind his brother-in-law.
Sam was weak, pale as a ghost, nothing but skin and bone. Her breathing was shallow and wheezy.
Sirius nodded at the Potions Master and he walked over the bed. He held out his hand. Neville hand him the bottle.
"Black listen. We didn't have time to test this potion. It might kill her instantly or it might save her."
"Just do it Professor. Please." Hermione begged.
He nodded and gently opened her mouth. Severus slowly poured the potion down her throat as Neville rubbed her throat to push the liquid down. He sat the bottle down on the beside table.
"Now we wait," said the Potions Master. He lend against the wall.
Harry looked at his muggle watch and 30 minutes past and no improvement. He looked at the witch. Sam's breathing slowly normalize. The color in skin slowly came. He looked at his watch again and 45 minutes pasted.
Sirius gently squeezed his wife's hand and he felt a very weak squeeze in return. The wizard brushed the hair from her face. Sam slowly opened her eyes. Severus walked over to the witch. He waved his wand and his mouth twitched into a smile.
"Welcome back Sam. Your lungs have completely cleared. But I want to keep a twenty four hour cheek on you."
"Ok." Sam said weakly.
"I'll go tell the others the news." Harry said kissed Hermione and left the room

Harry walked into the room and smiled. "It worked. But Snape wants to keep a 24 hour watch. They didn't have to test it. So pray it worked."
