Occotina was walking down the corridors of Hogwarts together with her little dog Coffee. (Who by the way wasn't so very small any longer, as he now was allmost five months old, and was a long legged "teen")

She had allways loved walking the corridors, when she was a little girl too. Today it was "parents-day" at Hogwarts, and after leaving her two youngest together with Hagrid, she had had conferances with Jacob's teachers, the Head of Hufflepuff, and his other teachers.

Now she was heading for the dungeons to talk with Snape. She felt a bit silly coming to him this way; they were seeing each other quite often in private. But she thought she should see all hers son's teachers at "Parent's day". And they didn't usually discuss Jaboc's progress as a student when they met. They usually went for long walks with coffee, talking about books, arts, all most everything, exept for the feelings growing between them. They were both too shy to talk about their feelings. But she was allmost sure he enjoyed her company allmost as much as she enjoyed his.

In the dark corridor Coffee came a bit too close to her leg, and she stumbled and lost her purse. Oh, Coffee, you idiot, she laughed, are you afraid of the dark? Look what you did!

She bended her knees, at reached her hand out for her purse, and, "NO!" she cried out in pain, as something in her back moved a way it wasn't supposed to move.

"Oh shit!" she panted, the pain strained her voice. She tried to rise to her feet, but when she tried to move, the pain radiated through her body, makin her unable to get to feet.

"Oh my! That looks painfull! You better get up to Madam Pomfrey, and lie down!"

Occotina turned her head agains the mocking voice of Peeves, floating upside-down over her head, smiling at her as he was digging his nose with his index finger.

"I can't" she moaned, "Peeves, please, can you tell somebody to come and help med get to the infirmary?"

"No!" he said, "I don't feel like doing that at the moment!" he said, and floated off down the corridore, leaving her to her self..

"Nooo! Peaves! Don't leave me!" She sobbed. Coffee snuggled into her, licking her nose to give her comfort.

"OK!" she said, "I'll try another time. Come here Coffee!" The tried to use the dog to push her self to her feet, but it was useless. The pain paralized her feet. It was so strong now, that it made her queesy. She hugged the dog and cried in dispair and pain. Then the dog gave her a lick on her nose, and ran off.

"No Coffee! Don't you too leave me here!"

But the dog didn't listen, but ran away.

In the staffroom Snape poured himself a cup of tea, hand seated himselfe by the fire. Sighing with his eyes closed. He was tired; this "parents-day"- thing was a new thing at Hogwarts to make the bondt to the parents stronger. And Snape was of the oppinion that it was a good thing, but it was truly exhausting.

"Er, Severus!?" the potions master's pause was interupted by Hagrid. The half-giant was covered by fleur, and carried Mrs Svaart's two youngest sons. They too were covered in fleur, and something else, something sticky, they all looked weary. "-hate to interrupt yeh sir, but do yeh know where the mother of theese two little monsters are?!"

Snape looked at the huge man and the two children, and bit his lip not to start laughing. "I thaught you loved monsters and dangerous creatures Rubeus?"

The half-giant looked embarrassed, "Er yes, but thees two,."

"I know," Snape said "They are more than a hand-full!.Their mother? I guess she's somewhere in the castle, having conferenses with her oldest sons teachers. I was expecting her to my office half an hour ago, but she never turned up, so I desided to take a breake."

At the same time they heard a loud scratch on the staffromm's door, and an even louder barking.

"Goffi!" Said the youngest boy with a smile.

"A there she is, Hagrid, your're saved!" Snape said in a mocking tone, and went to open the door. Coffe ran happily through it, barking at the two men.

"But," Hagrid started, where is Mrs Svaart?"

Snape looked out in the corridore, it was empty. "I don't know" he said, he looked a bit worried as the dog continued to bark, running a bit down the corridore, looking at him, barking more.

"I'll go and check!" he said.

"But Sir! Professor!" Hagrid stuttered, "What shall I do with her children?"

"I don't know," Snape answered as he left, "feed them I suppose!"

Occotina was still lying on the floor. She had tried to crawl on her hands and knees, but the pain filed her body, and made her unable to move. She had resigned now, just lying still, hoping someone to come to her rescue.

"Hello?" a voice called down the corridore "Someone there?"

She lifted her head, "S-severus?" She whimpered, "I'm down here, I can't move, my back."

He kneeled at her side, "are you sure you cant' rise?" "I can carry you I suppose?"

He tried to lift her, and she cried out in pain. "No!" he said"That was obviously not too smart!"

"Please!" she whispered hoarsly, "the pain, make it go away!"

He sothed her hair away from her face, "I can't sweethart, I don't have any potions on me."

As he spoke he waved his wand, and a strecher floated suddenly in the air. Then he levitated her on to the strecher.

"Please!" she moaned, " the pain, it eats me!"

"I know" he murmured, "but I don't have any potions here, as soon as we get you to the infirmary."

"Then stupefy me!, knock me out, please!" her voice was desperate, and she clingered to his hand.

He hesitated, "I don't know." He looked at her face, rey and sweaty from the pain. "er, very well, STUPEFY!" at his last words he pointed at her with his wand, and she lost her consiousness. "Forgive me." he whispered, and started to float the strecher to the infirmary.

A/n: this part is inspires from my injured back, which partly is the reason that I haven't updated lately, it hurts to sit too long at the computer.

Peeves is inspired by my oldest, who acted similary as the poltergaist when I asked him to get his father to help me up from the floor, "No, I don't feel like it at the moment.!" Luckily our hous isn't as big as Hogwarts, I could shout for help, and I was heard.
