Chapter 3
Harry woke up and looked around. Nothing looked familiar. He closed
his eyes and thought about the accident. That wasn't the first time he
had dreamed of it. Every time he dreamt of it, it seemed much worse.
Dudley was dead because of him. He still didn't know what that thing
was that murdered Dudley.
"Harry are you awake?" Mrs. Weasley said.
Harry opened his eyes again.
"You're burning up!". Mrs. Weasley waved her hand and a wet cloth
appeared on Harry's forehead.
"W-What happened?" Harry asked as he looked around.
He was in a small room surrounded by the Weasley's and Hermione.
"That creepy Simmons guy back at the Leaky Cauldron looked at you
and you screamed and went unconscious! This lady right here
apparated you here and as it turns out you could of died! She saved
your life.", Ron explained as he pointed to a woman dressed in red
next to him. He looked at her and she looked at him and it was like
they had an understanding. She smiled and nodded. She looked like a
kind woman. Along with her red clothes, she had on red lipstick, red
shoes, red nail polish and red tinted hair. She obviously loved the color
red.
"What do you mean I could of died?"
"Well", the lady in red said, "Simmons had made your Butterbeer. He
put something in it that could have killed you, a type kind of poison.
But this was a specific poison, only meant to kill." She held up a little
bottle containing a dark velvet colored liquid. "It's called Bongalie. It's
a rare poison because of the way it kills. First off, it's got a signal. You
pick the signal. I'm not sure how all that works though. He definitely
used magic though. When he looked at you, the poison was somehow
activated. Once it's activated, it goes after you weaknesses to make
your death look as natural as possible. Your weakness was your scar.
You have a history of sharp pains where your scar is so that's where
the poison attacked. If I hadn't gotten you here, no one knows what
could of happened. Your friend Ron here, went and got his parents and
met us here. Your lucky you have so many people who care about
you... Oh silly me," she giggled, "I haven't introduced myself. My
name's Sandie, Sandie Sue."
"Well thank you Sandie or Sue or what do you want me to call you?"
Harry asked.
"Sue will be just fine." She was a very kind woman indeed. She had a
little bit of a high pitched voice and in a way, similar to a child's.
"Okay Sue. Thank you for everything, umm how did you get that
bottle of Bon-Bongalie?" Harry asked.
"Oh, well this is a weird story. Your doctor couldn't find out what was
wrong with you. He had tried every magical and Muggle solution he
could think of but nothing would wake you up. He figured it was either
poison or some kind of curse. Well he left the room and you were left
in here alone. He had come to get your friends and family and as we
all approached the door to your room, Ginny looked down and saw a
little bottle and this was attached to it." Sue held out a piece of
parchment and Harry took it and read it.
BONGALIE
Poison
Purpose- To kill
Bongalie, a very rare and highly wanted poison, feeds on a person's weaknesses.
Made to look like a naturally caused death.
WARNING- If accidentally swallowed, see Albus Dumbledore.
Harry looked up and there was Professor Dumbledore. He had come in
when Harry was reading the letter.
"Hello Harry. I did not expect to see you so soon." Harry opened his
mouth to speak but Dumbledore kept talking. "Please let me finish. I
do not have a lot of time, I must get back to Hogwarts. Mr. Weasley
has told me of his proposition for you to come live with them. I think it
would be wise of you to except. You'll be safe there. And you may be
surprised by certain circumstances if you go." Professor Dumbledore
looked at Harry as he said that and winked. "Now I would like you to
stay close to an adult at all times until your return to Hogwarts. You
are a very smart boy and I will expect you to use your brain and not
go looking for trouble. Someone out there wants you dead and there is
someone else out there looking after you. This is a very awkward
situation. Someone left that note so you wouldn't die, but I feel they
may be ashamed of themselves because they will not reveal their
identity. Now until the next time we meet, this is good bye", and
Professor Dumbledore vanished.
Harry looked over at Mrs. Weasley,
"I want to come live with you. I was just really shocked and afraid
when Mr. Weasley asked me. I didn't want anyone else to get hurt at
my expense. If it's okay with everyone, I'll except."
"Of course it's okay sweetie, we already have a room for you at the
house," Mrs. Weasley laughed, "and...", she turned to Sue, "we'd love
for you to come and be a guest in our home for a little while if you
would like."
Sue looked at Mrs. Weasley, then to Mr. Weasley and then to Harry.
She turned back to Mrs. Weasley,
"Okay, but only for a few days," she said cheerfully.
