Chapter 2
When he awoke he saw that he was in some kind of room. He moved violently back and forth trying to get loose. It wouldn't work.
"Do you no what the Expermenta curse is, Potter? No? Would you like to know?"
"Not particularly," He answered purposely not rising to the bait. Voldemort shrugged obviously dissappointed.
"Your choice," he said, raising his wand Voldemort shouted, "Expermento!" Harry closed his eyes wondering what exactly the effects of the curse were. That was the longest coherent thought he had for a long time.
The last time he felt secure, like he could stop running, was when he met her. He could see brief images of her as he thrashed a little less wildly on the bed.
The curse had destroyed him. Not his physical body, his mind. It had turned him into a hunted animal, forever paranoid of being caught and hurt. When the bonds on his hands and legs had been released, he ran not thinking of anything other than getting away. He turned into an animal, he started growling and whimpering, and all sane thoughts were banished from his mind. Then she came.
If he had been asked, even if he had been mentally able to talk, he could not say exactly how she had come. She'd just appeared and taken him in. Slowly she had taught him how to talk again and he could only remember his name. In return for his name she had given him his, Lana. The thought of her calmed him enough to say her name.
"Albus, did he say something?"
"I think so, Harry what did you say?" He was being asked a question, he knew that much, but was the answer.
"Lana?" he asked pleadingly.
"Who's Lana?"
"I don't know Poppy. Maybe-" he didn't finish.
"Lana?" Harry called getting nervous. She'd never left him for this long.
"Harry, who is Lana?" When Harry didn't answer this Dumbledore tried another tactic.
"Where did you meet Lana?" he asked not really expecting an answer. To his surprise Harry quieted down.
"Don't remember," he grunted, "a forest, with bright lights," he added.
"The Guarding Forest."
"Albus are you sure?"
"Of course! Lana must be the current guardian. That would explain why she brought him back to Hogwarts. Outsiders aren't allowed there for more than three days. I'm going to find her."
"But, Albus-"
"No. She's the only cure for Harry. I'll be back in a couple of days," he said walking out of the hospital wing.
"Oh," Madame Pomfrey said distressingly, "I hope he hurries."
A/N: Okay, I think the next chapter might actually have a name. If you want to suggest one for this chapter and the last one feel free. Anyway, what happens next? Will Lana consent to come?
