A/N: the first chapter may have been a bit choppy. My apologies. I hope this is better. I also am in need of assistants, because I`m having trouble uploading my stories. Please review! Sorry if there is any errors. I read it over twice.

Lisana heard familiar voices and tried to open her eyes. She felt someone touch her forehead. She groaned at the pain in her eyes. The voices were now so clear that she could identify what was being said.

"James, we should take her to St. Mungo`s" said a woman.

"What do you think Remus?"said a man.

" I think she just took a nasty fall," said another man who`s voice sounded quite tired.

"James!" exclaimed the woman, " She`s awake! How are you feeling Lisana?"

Lis now recognized the voice as her mother`s. Tried as she might, she could not open her eyes.

" Mom, how come my eyes won`t open? Did you put a spell on them or something to stop the pain?"

"What?" Lily asked with worry, " Your eyes are open!"

"B.. But I can`t see anything except darkness," said Lis with growing fear. Evidently, so was everyone else, because she heard a sharp gasp from more than one person.

" Lisana," said a voice that belonged to James, "I`m taking you to St. Mungo`s."

Lisana choked back a sob as her father and mother helped her up. What if she was blind forever? Would she still be able to learn magic? Did they have a cure for blindness? She really hoped so.

As she stood up, her legs gave out from under her, and this caused a sharp pain in her right side. She clutched her ribs as James caught her fall. This was turning out to be a very bad vacation.




***

James and Lily sat in anticipation at St. Mungo`s. The Healers were checking Lisana over, and they were forced into the waiting room with Sirius and Remus. Lily had walked out in the early morning to water the flowers she had charmed to grow in the winter. Upon reaching the garden, she had found a crumpled body in the newly fallen snow. Lily shouted for James who had been visiting with Remus and Sirius. James had picked Lisana up, and brought her inside. Her waking up had been more terrifying than when she was unconscious. Now, they waited, worry clearly written on their faces.

"Prongs," said Sirius, " She`ll be OK. Your forgetting she is a daughter of a Marauder."

"That`s right," said Remus.

At the moment, Harry came rushing through the door.

"What happened?" he asked. James and Lily exchanged a look, and told Harry everything. He and Lisana were very close, and they didn`t really need him to worry at that moment, but it wasn`t right not to tell him.

"Mr. And Mrs. Potter?" asked a young looking witch dressed in the uniform of a Healer.

James, Lily, and Harry walked over to the Healer. She looked at Harry, deciding wether or not he should be there.

" He can hear, too," said James as if reading her mind.

"Saves them from repeating themselves," said Harry.

"Oh, alright," said the Healer, " Lisana is going to be fine. She had a fractured rib which we fixed in minutes. But the blindness is going to last at least for two days. The blindness was caused because of the fact that she stayed outside in the freezing weather for so long. She caught Hypothermia. "

"At least she`s alright," said Lily. Meanwhile, Harry, had slipped past the Healer, and into Lisana`s room. She was sitting there, feeling the table beside the bed with her hand .

"Lis?" asked Harry.

"Harry. Glad to hear you. I guess I`m stuck with temporary blindness," she said grinning slightly.

" So how did you fall?"he asked taking a seat on the edge of her bed.

" I think I might have fallen asleep by my window. I know I was sitting on the seat with it opened."

"Ah."

" Well, that`s not the reaction I expected," Lisana said crossing her arms. " I thought you would go into a two hour lecture about why not to sit on the edge of your window with it open, and then fall into a deep sleep."

"What makes you think I won`t put a spell on your room so you can barely move?"

"I think I would die of hunger, not being able to reach the kitchen and all."

"Too bad for you then. As your older brother, I have a duty to protect you, oh young and defenseless one."

"Now your scaring me. And I am not defenseless. "

"Sure, sure. What ever you say."

" Would you like me to get up and start singing "I will Survive?"[A/N I forgot who sings this song, but credit goes to them]

"Excuse me!" said a crossed Healer peering into the room, " But this patient needs her rest! No singing permitted! Or any amount of sudden professional dancing! Now out!"

Lisana made to get out of bed.

"Not you!" screeched the Healer, " You're the patient! I mean the boy with the glasses and an ordinary, non- scarred forehead! Out!" Harry grinned at the Healer`s hysterical behavior. She seemed determined to do things perfectly. Shrugging it off, he kissed Lisana on the top of the head and walked outside.


A/N That`s it for this chapter. The next will be longer than the first two. It will be about vacation.
