Dinning Hall

A loud thump is heard where Remus was standing.  "What in Merlin's name did you do to my husband?"

"Nothing," snaps Severus.  "Weasley you were told to take her to the hospital wing."

"Don't you order him about," shouts Chloe.  "You sorry excuse for a vampire!"

"Look you caffeine addicted simpleton!" counters Severus.  Harry, Ron and Neville gasp at the outright sight before them.  "You're going to the hospital wing!"

"Shut up you! You pompous BAT!  No one asked you," snaps Chloe as she tries to jump off the stretcher. 

"Children," barks Dumbledore.  "Mister Weasley kindly take Mrs. Lupin t the hospital wing.  Severus kindly take Mr. Lupin to the wing also.  And Severus please see to it that they are placed next to each other."

"Yes Headmaster," sneers Severus.  "Come along Mister Weasley," pointing his wand to the fainted Remus Lupin, Severus conjures up a stretcher.  "Do bring, the simpleton."  Severus smirks at the blonde who glares back at him. 

In the hallway heading towards the hospital wing, "BAT," snaps Chloe as she visibly calms down.  "Why do you look older?"  A choked cough is heard down in the dinning hall.

Everyone turns their attention to Fred and the little girl in is hands.  The little girls looked like she was nestled in his arms, long blonde hair, and pale blue eyes with a content facial expression.

"Who do we have here," asks Dumbledore, Fred blanches slightly. 

"This is Fed.  My friend," states the little girl using one hand to gesture to Fred.  Then using both hands, she places them both on her chest.  "I the Silly," states the little girl. 

Everyone looks at Fred for further information.  "As far I can ascertain she Mione's little sister."

Hospital Wing

"He should wake up soon," mutters Severus as he glares at Chloe.  "Get back into your own bed!"

"Oh go see Caro," mutters Chloe as she pulls the covers over both Remus and herself.  Severus tisks, winks at her then struts away.   "Blasted Vampire!"  Sighing Chloe gently squeezes Remus.

Feeling a gentle squeeze wakes Remus.  Blinking he instantly notes he's in the hospital wing. A blonde head rests on his chest Chloe… running a hand over her back.  Wait...CHLOE!!  Lifting the petite blonde on top of him Remus stares into her smiling eyes.  "Chloe?"

"Hey baby," whispers Chloe as she places a light kiss on his lips.  "Didn't mean to give you such a fright.  Forgive me?"

"Chloe," croaks out Remus as he continues to stare unblinkingly at her.  Watching her suck on her lower lip, Remus feels wets spots hit his neck.  Blinking he looks back up into her eyes, which has, unshed tears.  Chloe was now biting her lower lip.  Moving his hand into the back of her hair, Remus pulls her closer.  "My Precious Chloe!"

Dinning Hall

"OH," gasps Neville.  A smile spreads across his face, "Mione's little sister, Silly Selena!"  The little girl squeals in delight as she claps her hands.  Everyone else was shocked that Neville knew who the girl was. 

"How," demands both Harry and Ron at the same time.

"She accidentally told me," laughs Neville as sees the shock on their faces.  "What?  We talk!"

"Hey," croaks out Harry.  "But we're her best friends and she didn't even tell us."

"Harry," grumbles Neville looking at the sea of faces before him.  "It's not like she didn't want to tell you," starts Neville.  "Look, she didn't even really tell me.  I found out on my own by accident."

"She should have told us," snaps Ron his ears turning pink.

"Ron," hisses Mrs. Weasley.

"Mione didn't want any one to know about her," states Neville.

"What?"  "Why Not?"  was asked by various Weasley's.

"Because as much as she didn't mind Voldemort coming after her," gushes Neville, several people flinch at Voldemort's name.  "She did mind the death-eaters going after her family who couldn't protect themselves, especially her little sister."

Hospital Wing

Later

Blinking several times, why is the Leaky Cauldron so white? Listening for a few seconds, it's so quite here. Why am I lying down? Turning her head slightly until it becomes painful, she recognizes the moving portraits on the wall. I'm at Hogwarts! Why?

"HI," whispers loudly a little girl with blonde hair.  "I the Silly."

Cold, I'm so cold.  Where is everyone?  Trying to open her mouth to say something, anything.  So tired.

"You sleep," orders Silly as she steps away. What feels like an eternity the little girl is back but this time she has a blue blanket with her.   "Binky."  With that the girl places the blanket on the women in the bed.

Where is everyone?

The girl tilts her head then smiles.  "Over there!"  Pointing to the other side of the room.  "Do you want someone?"

Please help me.

"Ok," nods Silly.  "HELP! NEED HELP!"  Rushing footsteps, sudden squeals then several people were hovering around.

"What's the matter," mutters Fred holding the girl while George has his wand out.

"She scared," answers Silly pointing to the woman on the bed.

"What," questions George.  Looking at the woman, seeing a tinge of fear in her eyes.  Glancing back up at his twin, "well today is just full of surprises."

"Better get Dumbledore," suggests Fred.

"No," pouts Silly.  "She wants Se…Ser…Sev….Sevie!" 

"Don't want to know how you know that," laughs Fred.  "Yep, that's spooky," comments George as he heads out of the wing looking for the men in question.

Dinning Hall

Running in out of breath, George slows down when he gets the Gryffindor table.  "Dumbledore," huffs George pointing his hand back towards the way he came.  "It's Ms. Longbottom…" huffs out George as a loud crash signals that several others have stood up.  "She's…. she's…kind of…oh Merlin!"

"George," snaps Neville.  "Spit it out!"

George looked shocked at Neville's out burst.  Since when does Neville have a backbone?  Someone hitting his arm painfully brings him out of his wonderings.  "She told Silly that she wants someone called Sevie?"

"What did you say," whispers Neville falling back into his seat.

"Ms. Longbottom kind of told Silly that she's afraid and that she wants Sevie," repeats George glancing around expecting a slap from his mother any second.  "Who's Sevie?"

Just then Professor Snape runs passed, George as Dumbledore starts to question him.  "How did she ask Silly?"

"I have no idea," answers George.  "One minute Silly is standing guard next to Sirius holding Mione the next she walks directly to Ms. Longbottom."

"Did you hear her say anything," asks Neville who turned pale.

"Not a thing," says George.  "I only heard Silly talking but when I looked at Ms. Longbottom's face I could tell she was scared.  But when I suggested we get you, Silly said that Ms. Longbottom wanted Sevie."

"Extraordinary," mutters Dumbledore as he strokes his bread.

"I'm sorry but what extraordinary," asks Harry.

"Well Harry as you know Ms. Longbottom has been in a coma for years.  Since coming to Hogwarts she has shown signs of awareness that wasn't there previously there.  Now it seems Miss Granger's little sister can hear Ms. Longbottom," states Dumbledore with his blue eyes twinkling away like mad.  "I wouldn't be surprised if Ms. Longbottom makes a recovery of some sort."

Hospital Wing

Gentle rocking, back and forth.  Safe and complete feeling snakes it's way into consciousness.   Gentle stroking up and down on the back, slowly noises started to penetrate a thick fog. 

"I WANT IT!  I WANT IT!  I WANT IT!  I WANT IT!" shrieks a girl's voice.

"You can't have it," retaliations another voice.  A series of loud thumps followed by stifled laughter, several coughs then whining.

"I'm going to tell MY MINE you're a nasty boy who's mean for me," shouts the girl followed by more thumps and louder whining.

"Ronald Weasley!" shouts Molly.  "Give Silly back that wand this instant!"

"BUT MUM," whines Ron.  "She's not suppose to have a really wand."

"Ron," lowly growls Sirius as he glares at the boy.  "That little girl didn't survived a death-eater attack just so you could antagonize her.  If you upset my wife so help me."

Cracking open her eyes, Melody blinks away the blurriness.  Glancing around the room, why is James sitting on the floor?  Looking up, Sirius is holding me.  Sighing, Melody opens her eyes more.  To her right almost directly in front of her was a sight to behold. 

A flaming red haired boy was sitting on a chair with a little girl standing on his lap.  The little girl had one hand was holding him by his collier the other was reaching up for the wand held by his other hand.  The little girl was obliviously irate.  "MY MINE GONNA 'URT YOU!"  With that said she slapped him soundly in the face.  

My Mine?  "Sirius?"  Looking up at him, he smiles sweetly down at her.  "What happened?"

"Mione," shouts Harry as he jumps up from the floor rushing towards his friend. 

Getting a good look at Melody tenses in Sirius's arms.  "James?"  Startling everyone in the room and stopping Harry dead in his tracks.  "You're not James!  Where are James and Lily?"   Sirius tightens his grip on his wife, leaning his head closer to her face.  Sirius starts to whisper to her, as tears start to fall out of her eyes.  Soon heart wrenching sobs echo in the now quite room.

"Oh Harry," cries Melody (Hermione) as she looks at him.  "I'm sorry for scaring you."

"Which time," laughs Harry.  "Cause Mione lately you have been scaring me a lot.  I think I just might go gray soon if you keep this up." 

A strangled laugh escapes Melody as Silly climbs down off of Ron.  Looking at her little sister Melody reaches out a tentative hand.  Just as it makes contact, a mischievous smile crosses Silly's face as she shouts joyously, "BOO!
