Harry woke up with a splitting headache and some sharp icy pain in his lower back. He wasn't really sure where he was but when he opened his eyes he saw that it was nighttime and he was in the deserted hospital wing. Harry couldn't remember anything and was soon sleeping heavily and dreamlessly.
The boy woke up and flinched as the bright light blinded him for a couple of seconds. He felt something thumping at the end of his bed and then a huge tongue wiped across his face.
"Sirius, Ewwwww!"
The dog barked and started running around in happy circles on his bed.
"Sirius do you realize what that would be like if you were doing this as a human?" Harry said wiping his face. His throat was soar and he still felt pain in his head and back. He looked around and then all the memories of the previous night came flooding back in. Harry rubbed his fingers over the amulet around his neck unconsciously and he soon found himself wanting answers.
"Sirius, what happened? Did he get the amulet? Where's Malfoy?" He tried to sit up but groaned and slouched back down in pain.
Sirius immediately turned back into his human form and was at Harry's side.
"Harry, don't try to move. Poppy!" He yelled.
The nurse came bustling in with potions in hand.
"Mr. Potter, I am thinking about giving you this bed personally and permanently."
Harry looked at the medi-witch confused. As if reading his mind Madame Pomphrey continued.
"You are always in here Mr. Potter. Now, I healed your open wounds on your back and head but unfortunately parts of it could not magically be healed. Drink this pain killing potion and you will fill much better but I afraid you are to stay here until at least tomorrow."
Harry drank the potion she handed him and instantly felt better. "What happened?"
"I think Sirius can answer all or most of you questions. I have to go take care of the things for the headmaster but I will be back later. Don't you dare think about leaving that bed!" Madame Pomphrey said sternly and then left the hospital wing.
"Sirius can you please tell me what is going on? Answer my questions!" Harry demanded.
"Harry, calm down. The amulet is fine. Malfoy has it. You were blown into a stone wall and you hurt your back and cracked your head open. Draco brought you here using your emergency portkey."
"So, how long have I been asleep?" Harry asked.
"You have been asleep for about two days. I have been sitting with you most of the time and I think I heard you talk in your sleep a little bit."
"Oh," Harry said. He didn't really know what else there was to say. He was surprised he had been asleep for so long but he couldn't stop thinking about the amulet. They had the three pieces now and all they needed to do was..well they had a lot to do. He was so glad that Sirius was there with him. Harry was really getting close to Sirius and the boy couldn't be happier about it.
"There is an order meeting tonight and I think I can get Poppy to let you leave. I really think that you can do this Harry. With the amulets we are so much closer," Sirius said.
"I know Sirius."
Sirius smiled.
"Harry, do you want anything? I could get you something to eat. I have to go to the great hall to tell Albus that you're awake anyway and I am a little hungry myself. I can come back in about 15 minutes?" Sirius asked nicely.
"That would be great Sirius. Thank you so much for staying with me."
"Of course Harry. I love you," Sirius said as he was walking out the door.
"Love you too Padfoot," Harry replied smiling a content grin.
Moments later the doors open and Fallyn and Malfoy walked in.
"Hey Harry," Malfoy greeted.
"How are you feeling?"
"I'm better than I was before."
"Sorry Harry. I didn't mean for that to happen."
"Don't be stupid Draco. It wasn't your fault. I thought you had put your wand down so I did the same. It was a misunderstanding. A stupid one but there isn't anything I can do about that now," Harry told him.
The two friends took a seat on the chairs next to Harry's hospital bed. Harry was beginning to realize that Fallyn and Draco were becoming like another Ron and Hermione. Of course they definitely weren't as close and they had almost absolutely different personalities but there were some qualities that they shared.
"Do you have it Draco?" Harry asked.
Malfoy nodded and pulled his hand up to the chain around his neck and unclasped it. The Slytherin took it off and twirled the little charm in his fingers. Its metal glistened and the little colorful stone on it reflected on the window. He handed it to Harry who studied it closely. It was like the others except it was the shape of Fallyn's which was slightly different than Harry's. It was silver with an engraved cursive 'S' right under a small blue gem. Harry recognized it as tanzanite.
As if reading Harry's mind, Fallyn took her bracelet off and handed it to Harry. Harry looked at the two and took his own charm off of his neck. "Should I?" He asked hesitantly. Fallyn and Draco seemed to understand and nodded.
Harry first clipped the Gryffindor triangle into the Ravenclaw one. And then he clipped the last and final piece which was the Hufflepuff triangle.
Suddenly the completed amulet flashed jet black and the engraved letters turned blood red. There was a perimeter of five feet that glowed bright gold. The curtains closed suddenly and the candles and lanterns all went out and the three found themselves only seeing each others outline by the glow of the amulet. Everywhere else around them was dark. Harry unhooked them quickly and the glow diminished.
"What does this mean?" Fallyn asked shell-shocked.
"I think it means we...we activated it somehow."
"But we haven't even used it," Draco said.
"I know but think about it. This thing has never been together or completed and it was made a really long time ago," Harry told them as he gave back the pieces to their owners.
"Harry are you okay?" Lupin said floating in. "The lights went out all over the castle and no one is sure why. The curtains all closed by themselves and we think it is something dark that did this."
"Remus don't worry about it. I ...I.can't really explain how it happened but I will tell you at the meeting tonight," Harry said to the ghost.
"Are you sure Harry? What's going on?"
"I will tell you Remus. I promise."
After that little occurrence all three visitors left. Sirius came back and gave Harry some food while Hermione and Ron came in and visited. They all ate and talked and then Harry was forced by Madame Pomphrey to take a dreamless sleep potion. Harry grudgingly took it but only after Sirius promised to wake him an hour before the order meeting that night.
~!~!~!~!~
"I am so glad you are all here," Voldemort hissed to his deatheaters. "It is time we prepare for an attack. We are going to attack Hogwarts as soon as we are ready. We need some dark and loyal creatures first.
Larvan, I want you to make sure all the loyal followers are out of Azkaban as soon as possible," he said icily. A buff man bowed and stood back.
"Seranabin, I need you to get together a troop to get as many trolls and giants as possible."
"But-"
"Don't question me! Crucio!"
The man shrunk back in pain. Harry felt the pain and shot his eyes open while feeling the after effects of the Cruciatus curse.
"Harry are you okay?" Sirius asked. He was sitting on the bed next to Harry. "Madame Pomphrey!" He called
"I.I.I have to talk to Dumbledore," Harry choked.
"You can soon Harry. What's wrong?"
"Cruciatus," Harry whispered.
30 minutes later Harry had been treated and was feeling much better. He had to talk to Dumbledore before the order meeting tonight. Voldemort was planning an attack and this would be their chance. They were recruiting other dark creatures and getting the Azkaban prisoners. Everyone had to prepare immediately.
Harry fell asleep and prayed for it to be dreamless. When he woke up it was time to go to the order meeting. Sirius and Harry walked up to the headmaster's office where a lot of people had already arrived. He sat at the head of the table across from Dumbledore and next to Sirius and Remus. Fallyn and Draco were also there just like all the usual order members.
"Welcome everyone. We have a lot to discuss right now. Minister would you like to say anything?" Dumbledore addressed the room.
Harry wasn't sure if this was the time to tell the big news yet but with everyone looking at him he thought he might as well.
"I do actually have some very big news and I am sure you all know by now about the amulet. Now that we have all the pieces all we have to do is wait for the time to use it. I think the time will come very soon."
"What are you talking about Harry?" Sirius whispered.
"Let me finish Sirius. Voldemort is planning an attack on Hogwarts. Deatheaters are recruiting dark creatures. Most likely they are getting giants, goblins, trolls, zombies, vampires and definitely dementors. They are also planning to let all the Azkaban prisoners out but I am not sure when they are going to attack. Probably by the end of term."
"How do you know this minister?" Kingsley Shacklebolt asked.
"That isn't really important now but we have to prepare somehow."
"Mr. Potter, I believe you and I think we have to prepare as well," someone said.
"Any ideas?" Remus asked.
"Well we need to protect Azkaban so the prisoners don't escape. Mr. Potter can send aurors there, lots of them. There isn't much we can do about the Dementors I think but they won't be much of a problem for Potter, Amory and Malfoy. Is that correct?"
"Yes," Draco said. "We have been training and we have done exceptionally well in the patronus. We can take out 100 dementors each on one charm."
"How many aurors do you think we will need?" Harry asked.
"I think we will need two aurors per every deatheater and right now there are about 100. 30 of them are in the inner circle," Moody said.
"Okay, I will go to the ministry first thing tomorrow morning and talk to the head auror," Harry said.
For the next 2 hours Albus and Harry assigned different people missions and worked out plans. Everything was coming together but almost everyone except Sirius, Snape and Harry were sent on missions. Fallyn and Draco also stayed. By the end of the night Harry was so tired he collapsed into his bed, fast asleep.
