Chapter 62: Awakening

They got back to class, and Harry only snapped out of his trance when Moody started yelling at him.

"Potter! Have you heard even a word of what I just said?" Harry noticed the whole class was looking at him.

"I-ummm….."

"Well, pay attention this time, because we'll start. When put under the Imperius curse, you have to try and keep your mind clear of anything. Whatever happens, just concentrate to not do what you're asked to do. It may sound simple Malfoy, but we'll see when it's your turn." Moody snapped at Malfoy who was arguing with Zabini. Unlike the others, Harry noticed that he didn't seem like himself this days. Not quite. But he wasn't thinking of it now, after the antidote failure not half an hour ago. No, he was asking himself what happened. He thought Snape got it right, but the continuing coldness of his sister proved otherwise. He dozed off merely five minutes after the class started, and it seemed like the other two had too. But Hermione wasn't battling anger like him. It looked more like she was contemplating something.

Moody started, and every student was made to do even more ridiculous things than the one before. Dean sang the school anthem in a french accent, Parkinson acted like a cat, and Neville did gymnastics. Not even half the kids were done when the class ended, so they left with the promise to continue next time.

Next morning found the three kids curled up in overstuffed chairs in the Gryffindor common room, their Transfiguration essays in front of them. It was due the next day, but Hermione managed to convince them to at least start. Harry didn't manage to write a lot and what he did write was a little smudged. His face was red and eyes swollen, having falled asleep crying.

Hermione didn't know what woke her up until a tall figure with red hair plopped down next to her on the couch, and another one on a chair. The boys were waking up slowly too. She sent the twins a questioning look and they were grinning from ear to ear, surprising all three of them.

"What happened? What are you doing here? The sun's not even up." Hermione asked, rubbing her eyes.

"We know it's not exactly morning yet,but we felt…"

"…we shoud announce you that she woke up!" Merlin, their voices were so hoarse from the lack of use.

Harry and Hermione jumped at that, all the tiredness being left behind, but Ron wasn't a morning person at all. They had to drag him out of the room and to the Hospital Wing, but after they got Ginny as well. Fred and George dissapeared as soon as they got out of the tower, but the others were not really paying attention, in their hurry to get to Selene. They rushed into the room and were greeted by Madam Pomfrey in a Mrs Weasley stance, with her hands on her hips.

"I knew you'll come here as soon as she wakes up but listen very well. She is in a very fragile state so you have to be calm and not talk loudly. Don't stay much, she needs some rest, even though she doesn't want to accept that." She stopped, looking them over "Where are the Weasley twins?"

Ron shrugged "Dunno, they disappeared after they told us she woke up."

At that, realization fell over Madam Pomfrey's face. "Oh no, not them. I can't handle this." She muttered to herself and went to her office as the group approached their friend.

She was still pale and probably cold, but she was breathing almost normally now and she sat, reading a book. But she seemed like she was struggling, her eyes moving very slowly across the pages and stopping a lot.

"Sel?" Ginny was the first to approach her, taking her friend's hand and sitting in one of the chairs next to her bed. The girl in question looked up slowly, flinching a little when her hand had been touched. She had seen them entering, why was she like that?

"Hi guys."She greeted in a very hoarse voice, putting the book on the nightstand. "How are you?"

"The real question is how are you. You've been out for more than two weeks."

"I'm, confused, and tired. I don't even really remember what happened. Care to enlighten me?"

"Well, we were at breakfast and you took a sip of your tea and then fainted. Someone poisoned it. But we still don't know who."

"Hmm. Well, what happened while I've been out?"

About 15 minutes later, after the others left, four people entered the room to see Selene.

Selene's point of view:

They really did it. Fred and George entered the Hospital Wing with Blaise and Draco, all looking cheerful. Have I really been so sick?

"Selene!" the twins exclaimed jumping to hug me.

"Try not to choke me though. I wouldn't want to faint again."

"How are you?" Draco asked.

"I'm breathing, so I guess I'm good. I'll be better in a couple of days. At least that's what Madame Pomfrey said."

"Well, that's good because we can sit down now and you'll tell me what happened." Blaise said, taking the chair next to my feet.

"I've just woken up, I don't really know what-"

"Oh, I was actually talking to them. I have been told little to nothing about what happened to you."

And that's how I spent my night, talking to the boys. I don't really remember when I fell asleep, but I was feeling so much better the next morning. I wasn't looking like a corpse anymore and that was something. After an hour of arguing, I managed to convince Madam Pomfrey to let me go to classes that day, at least the first two, since she thought Transfiguration and Potions werent too tiring, as opposed to DADA.

The day went rather well, everyone in Gryffindor welcoming me back and some of the others as well. Everyone seemed just so surprised when looking at the twins that I started wondering what was wrong with them. But that was for later to find out, I thought while making my way to the headmaster's office.

Sev and Minnie were there with Dumbledore. They all looked at me expectantly.

"What?"

"Is there something you didn't tell us about You-know-who?" Minnie requested.

"No. I told you he's going to try and kill me. There's nothing more to it than that. Just I wasn't expecting him to try so soon.
