2. The healing
'What do you think, Holly?' Ginny asked. She was anxious and fearful. She was standing next to a tall, blonde woman – healer Houston, Ginny's only true friend in America.
'Well, I can't believe it, Ginger' she smiled at Weasley, 'You claim he'd been killed, but he's perfectly alive. I guess it's a type of coma, connected with the fact that he's been frozen. Don't ask me, I don't know the answers.'
Ginny choked and looked at Sirius. His shoulder length hair was lying on sheets and his face was almost as pale as the material. He was breathing very slowly and didn't move. Holly checked his temperature once again, it's been rising and was almost normal right now. He wasn't hurt much; Ginny found no signs of the spells that must have attacked him in the Ministry.
'You think we should try Villmaster Potion to awaken him?'
'Well' the healer hesitated. 'I find it too aggressive. Maybe if he doesn't wake in a week or so...'
'Week??' Ginny cried. She had just regained a friend from the past, a man for whom all of them cried and was to wait so long???? 'But do you think he's safe?'
'What are you planning, Weasley?' Holly asked suspiciously. 'I want no crazy, ancient experimenting here, andaztood???'
'You know what is your problem?' said Ginny and Holly began to nod her head. 'Your government is paying me to reveal the beauty of ancient arts and you, educated magician, refuse to use it!!!'
'Yeah' sighed Houston. 'That's definitely a problem.'
'But, leaving the ancient, I'm still a DA specialist in here and, though I want to believe it has nothing to do here, he wasn't cursed with some strong dark spell, I should check it...'
'Ad how do you want to do it, my defence master? Wanna tear his hair away? Cut his belly? What?'
'Oh, why do I have to work with ignorant people?'
Holly laughed loudly and spoke, unable not to giggle:
'so, what are you up to, love?'
'Get off me, I'm'nt gonna talk t'ya!'
'I prefer when you use English.'
'And I prefer when you think!'
'Impossible.'
'Yeah, impossible...'
'Oh, Ginny. What d'ya want?'
'I'd like to try Veritaserum...'
'You want to make him talk? He's too weak, Ginny. You can't?'
'Do you know anyone who didn't survive it?'
'They tried in on stunned, petrified, unconscious people but not on people recovering from being frozen and in coma!!'
Ginny sat on a chair next to the bed and looked down. Sometimes, and she knew it, medical treatment is not as important as the safety of the rest of the world. The magical (truly magical) appearance of a dead-to-be man consisted of some kind of miracle. Or dark arts.
'Holly, I have no idea why is he back. What forces there were used to bring him back. We're even not 100% sure that it's Sirius Black, for it can be someone after Polyjuice of something stronger, so that he isn't changing yet. I have to inform the government, or, which is what I'm gonna do, tell Dumbledore. He's still the best.'
'Strange, comparing with fact that YOU are here' mocked Holly.
'I know' mocked Ginny.
They were silent for a while, because the situation wasn't funny and laugh would be inappropriate. Then Ginny spoke pleadingly:
'Dark Arts are very dangerous and I cannot allow any of you here unless I am sure it is perfectly safe to take care of Sirius.' She stroke gently Sirius pale hand. 'we'll prepare safety measures, so that he won't be out of medical control.'
Ginny still looked puzzled and Holly smiled to her.
'You like him, Ginny.'
'What? Of course I like him. And I really want him to be normal.'
* * **************************************************************************** *
the day after that Ginny decided to use Veritaserum. She believed in her ordinary defensive systems, but wanted to be sure. It still was an impossible miracle that Sirius came back as if he left a day before. A day that lasted 15 years for the rest of the world.
Holly the healer allowed Ginny to keep Sirius conscious for maximum a minute.
'It must be long enough for you, but he's still in my ward, dark or not, and he can't die like that in here.'
'Thanks, Holly, it'll be enough' Ginny smiled.
'So' Holly smiled back, sneering a little. 'Are you sure you can prepare the potion or you will call Magical Hotline?'
She stared at Ginny with pride: Ginny hated to be suspected of incapability of doing something.
'Well, but I'm saying it just for your information. I have the potion in here and I'm going to use it straight away!'
'You're kidding' said Houston, her smile adding away.
'Nope.' Said Ginny and put out of her pocket a bottle, a tiny little pocket with green liquid inside.
