Chapter 7 They all stood huddled at the bottom of the stairs whent he front door flew open and two people fell in and the door closed. "Percy?" Ron asked, his face pale. Percy stood up and straighted his robe. He looked to Ron. "Ronald?" He blushed, and helped the other figure to her feet. It was Peneolpe. "Perc? How did you get a detention?" Ron asked, moving and opening the circle. "Well We, well uh." Percy was bright red, but his face faded to a ghastly white as he saw the heap at the bottom of the steps. "IS that FRED?" He ran to his side and knelt. "WHAT HAPPENED?" Draco Malfoy peeked around the corner, watching the group but soon returned into the room with his goons. "Help me get him." Percy lifted Fred with the help of Cedric and Oliver,. They carried him into the living room and placed him on the couch. Ron took a seat in the over stuffedf huge arm chair next to Hermione who kept a hand on his shoulder. Harry stood behind watching. George was crying and leaning on Susan for support. Her robe's shoulder was quickly covered with tears, she patted his back. Cassie sat on the automan next to Oliver waiting and watching Percy try and awaken Fred. Freds eyes slowly opened and he looked about the room. "What happened?" He asked weakly. "I was hoping you could answer that." Percy knelt by his head. "Don't move..get some rest. We'll be here." "Yes. Stay here." Fred shook his head, grabbing Percys robes. "Don't go upstairs." His eyes were wide with fright and he was shaking.
