Harry's day was quite normal for a Sunday, he played Wizard's Chess and Exploding Snap with Ron over and over in the common room until Hermione yelled at them to shut up.
"What's her problem?" Ron laughed, going over and putting his arms around Hermione. Harry didn't have a clue where Ginny was, she had left after breakfast and hadn't shown up for lunch or dinner, Harry just hoped that she was okay.
He yawned a pseudo yawn and turned to Ron and Hermione, "Well, I'm tired, I'm going to bed, I'll talk to you all tomorrow morning." Ron just waved goodnight, his lips were…busy at the moment.
He laughed and walked up to his dormitory, putting on his pajamas and crawling into bed, he pulled the curtains around his four-poster and sat up, pulling his knees toward him. He took the ring off the chain and placed it on his finger, he had to do it.
"Statuatorius moodius, Ginny Weasly." He said clearly, the diamond turned gray and Harry took out the paper Hermione had given him, searching for gray.
"Unconscious," He whispered. He grabbed the Marauder's Map and the invisibility cloak and ran down the steps.
"Ron! Ginny's hurt! We have to go! NOW!" He yelled.
Ron's head snapped up and so did Hermione's. They both leapt up and ran over to him, Harry put the cloak over the three of them and looked at the map, Ginny was in the Room of Requirement. They ran out of the common room and up to the 7th floor, the door to the room was locked but Hermione unlocked it with alohamora. They ran to where Ginny was laying in the middle of the room, throwing the cloak off by the door.
"Ginny!" Ron gasped, grabbing his sisters face and shaking it, "Wake up! Please wake up!"
Hermione on the other hand was looking around the room, trying to figure out what she would have been doing there. The room was just a stone dungeon, nothing special, covered in stone, no chairs, just torches to light it.
"Strange," She muttered.
Harry was knelt next to Ginny but couldn't bear to look. He wished there was something that he could do, but he didn't know what. After much slapping by her brother, Ginny began to stir.
"Ginny!?" Harry breathed.
"Oh God, it hurts." She moaned, opening her eyes. Hermione rushed over and stooped next to her.
"What happened Ginny?" Ron whispered, brushing the hair out of her eyes.
"Someone…grabbed me, Cruciatus Curse." She coughed, Hermione gasped.
"Oh God, Ginny." Harry bent closer to her.
"We need to get her to the hospital wing." Ron said urgently.
Ron grabbed Ginny's feet as Harry grabbed her head, Hermione walked beside her looking at the map watching for people coming. They made it to the hospital wing without any meetings, but a close call with Mrs. Norris.
"Madam Pomfrey!" Ron yelled as they ran into the Hospital Wing.
The mediwitch hurried over to where the boys had laid Ginny, she was starting to come to, but just barely.
"What happened here!?" She asked, bustling about and trying to revive her.
"We found her on the 7th floor, she said someone had performed the Cruciatus Curse on her."
"Oh dear, this is very bad. Miss Granger, please go get the headmaster then return to your dormitory, boys, go get Professor McGonagall and then return to the tower. Why are you just standing here? GO!" Everyone ran out the door of the hospital wing, without looking back. Hermione ran into Dumbledore as he was coming down the steps from his office, he said that he was already aware of Miss Weasly and was on his way.
The original Trio met in the common room, out of breath and very scared. Hermione was crying already.
"Who would have done that? Why!?" She sobbed, Ron put his arms around her and she bawled into his chest. Harry on the other hand was looking at his mother's ring.
"Statuatorius, Ginny Weasly." He sighed, the ring turned pale green. "Don't worry Ron, she'll be fine."
He bid them goodnight and went back up to his room, wishing he had someone he could talk to. He had fixed the mirror that Sirus had given him last year and he picked it up.
"Sirus, I need you." He whispered, a tear tracing down his jawbone.
He imagined the smiling face of Sirus appearing on the mirror, but it remained black. He sighed and let a few more hot tears fall from his eyes then placed the mirror back in his trunk. Everything was going wrong now, he had found someone he loved 3 years ago and then lost him last year, and now he found someone else he loved, and he almost lost her as well.
He looked at the ring on his finger, reaching up to unclasp the chain around his neck. He stopped before putting the ring on the chain and slipped it back on his finger, it was worth a try.
"Statuatorius, Sirus Black." Harry's breath caught in his throat as he watched the diamond change color, it was pale red.
"Sirus, isn't dead?" He whispered, he ran down the stairs into the common room to find that Ron had calmed Hermione down slightly and they were talking quietly by the fire.
"Ron, Hermione!" They looked up at a slightly flushed Harry.
"What is it mate?" Ron asked, looking puzzled.
"Snuffles is alive but just barely!" He gasped, watching the looks on Ron and Hermione's faces brighten considerably.
"Alive? But we all saw it, Bellatrix's spell hit him in the chest, he fell through the veil Harry." Hermione said.
"But, we don't know what she hit him with, none of us heard it, and Avada Kedavra is a green light, not red, and her spell was red." Harry said, his eyes burning with hopefulness.
"Well, how are we going to find out Harry? Maybe Sirus is really still alive." Ron said, scratching his chin,
"I don't know, maybe Dumbledore can help us." He thought aloud, Ron and Hermione agreed that they would see him tomorrow.

They woke up the next morning and rushed through breakfast. Then they ran down to the hospital wing to check on Ginny. She was sitting up in bed and smiled when they came in. Harry bent down and kissed her softly on the cheek.
"Gin, how are you?" Ron asked, his eyes showed how worried he was.
"Oh Ron, I'm better, Madam Pomfrey made me well again." She smiled, this comforted Harry somewhat. Hermione began to tell her about the news Harry had found out about Sirus, she broke out into a wide smile.
"Oh Harry! That's great! I wish I could go with you, but I'm not aloud out of here until I'm one hundred percent better." She hugged him.
"Yeah Ginny, that reminds me, what happened last night?" He asked, sitting on the edge of her bed.
"Well, I was just coming out of breakfast when I decided to take a walk around the castle, just to think about things. I was walking down a fourth floor corridor when someone came up from behind me and grabbed me. I tried to scream but they put the muting spell on me. They dragged me up to the Room of Requirement and put the Cruciatus Curse on me. I couldn't scream, but if I could, I would have woken the entire castle. It was so horrible, it was like thousands of fish hooks were tearing me apart." She stopped and started crying, Harry held her tenderly. "They kept me there and left for a bit, but they came back four or five times and did it again. I just wanted to die. They left me to die and that's when you all came to get me."
"Oh, Ginny." Hermione hugged her tightly.
"We need to find out who it was." Ron said, pounding on the bedside table.
"We can later Ron, but you need to go to Dumbledore about Sirus." Ginny pulled away from Harry and shooed them out of the room, along with Madam Pomfrey. Harry let go reluctantly and left.
The trio walked up to Dumbledore's office, trying every candy they knew of to get the password. Hermione was the one to get it when she said, "bubble gum!" They ascended the steps to the office, Dumbledore looked up when they walked in.
"Ah, Mr. Potter, Mr. Weasly, Miss Granger, what can I do for you?" His hands were on the desk with his fingers pushed like a steeple.
Harry told him about Sirus and Dumbledore sat listening attentively until he was done. When he was, the old man smiled.
"Ah, Harry, I'm glad you found out the powers of the Status Diamond, but I'm not sure on what you are saying about Sirus. Are you saying he is still alive?"
"Yes Professor, but just barely."
Dumbledore nodded, "Very well, I will contact the Department of Mysteries to obtain a portkey. We will go and find out what really happened to your God-Father."
Harry grinned, "Thank you Professor."
They left Dumbledore in his office, and walked to the hospital wing to tell Ginny about Dumbledore's plan, she was ecstatic.
