As Harry was still thinking about what this 'Death Mode' was all about, his two friends suddenly trooped in as if they had been cued.

"Hey Harry, we banished you to the hospital wing after you collapsed on the floor outside the dungeons as we were in a hurry to get to the next class. However, I'm glad to see that you've arrived here safely enough!" As you can expect, that was Ron.

Harry felt incredulous. How could his friends just banish him? He didn't know what it was, but it sure didn't sound very friendly. And how did they do that anyway? Was it some charm that Hermione had read about?

Harry cleared his throat, which was conveniently parched. "So, tell me about this banishing thing…" His tone carried a nasty edge, but Hermione, ever the clueless bookworm with her head constantly stuck up the ass of books for so long that she was cut off from the world of the living, failed to pick up on it. Ron was well, an idiot, so that it was pretty obvious he didn't manage to pick it up either.

"Well Harry, I learnt that spell when I read a charms text yesterday! I couldn't find anything to test it on so that I could tell what it did exactly; therefore when you fell I was very happy to be able to test it out!"

"Wait, wait, wait. You two tested an unknown spell on me?"

"Yeah, and I don't see the problem!"

"See this. Do I look like a guinea pig to you?"

Ron squinted and stared hard at Harry for a moment. "Well yeah, actually! I remember seeing one out in the fields near the Burrow, and you look remarkably like it! I still remember the round glasses like markings around its eyes! Wow Harry, you look like a guinea pig!"

Hermione simply huffed. "Do you have no confidence in me? I had already read up on the effects beforehand! I knew exactly what it would do!"

"Didn't you just say you didn't know exactly what it did?"

"Err… well… oh yeah… oh… um… just shut up Harry! Your insensitive comments are not helping the situation!"

"What situation?"

"Arrgh. Boys! I give up." with that, she turned and swept out of the room, her robes billowing out behind much like how Snape's robe did.

Harry was stupefied. What had occurred was just a tad too stupid for him to handle, so he simply flung the sheets off and pretended that no such conversation had ever happened. He quickly threw on his robe, which was roughly strewn across the table, presumably by some over eager fan girl wager to rip his clothes off. He assumed that even though he had no idea how such a fan girl could get to him in the hospital wing, but come on; let a boy continue his delusions.

As he was about to make good his escape, the school nurse, Pomfrey, came running in. "Where are you going, Mr. Potter?"

"How come you knew exactly when to come running in? Somehow everybody around me suddenly has some kind of impeccable timing."

"Oh, we were only spying on you from that peephole over at that wall." She pointed at said wall. "See?"

Harry didn't bother looking. "Err… why were you spying on me… and together with Ron and Hermione?"

Pomfrey dismissed his question with a wave. "Oh, we were only looking to see if you were all right. I don't have all day to stick around your bed, you know."

Harry gaze swept around the entire hospital wing twice. He concluded that he was the only patient within the entire premises. "Well, I'm the only patient around…"

Pomfrey huffed. "What, do you think I'm purposely spying on you? I'm a professional nurse!"

Harry looked up to see that the window out of her office was right above the peephole. "Well, why couldn't you have looked out of the window?"

"I… err."

"The source has a suspicious purpose. From this, I can conclude that you were peeping on me not because you wanted to ensure my well being, as you could have just looked out of the window."

"No! I'm not as unprofessional as that! Err… OBLIVATE!"

Harry was hit by the spell, but it was hardly effective against him.

"Oh, just forget about this crap. And let me go so that I don't have to be your peep toy any longer."

"OBLIVATEOBLIVATEOBLIVATEOBLIVATEOBLIVATE! WHY DIDN'T IT WORK?"

"Well, I guess it's high time for me to test out my new power," muttered Harry. "ERASE!" he boomed. Pomfrey, for some reason, fell over and collapsed on the floor.

Harry shrugged and walked out. "Well, I can't even begin to guess what she forgot…"

Harry decided that he didn't want to go to classes anymore for the day. He decided that now that his second power had come into effect he should begin to put it to use by going to the library. Stomping to the library, because nobody liked being peeped on, Harry slammed the door to the library open, unwittingly knocking out some poor sap who was standing right at the edge of the door's reach. His friend, who had just escaped a knockout punch from the door, started shouting at Harry and it began to draw quite a bit of attention onto Harry.

"Oh, just shut up. ERASE!"

The friend was knocked out cold and toppled over his friend. The rest of the students simply went back to their work and those who still noticed the two bodies looked as though they didn't know the two existed until today.

Harry ignored that and made his way to the restricted section.

As he was about to enter, Madam Pince came running up to stop him. Mr. Potter, before you enter I will require a note of certification signed by a teacher granting you entrance to the dangerous texts stored in this area."

Harry glared at her.

"Also, you will be required to complete your detention duties later in the day."

"Oh, that's just bullshit. Forget about all that crap. Forget about whatever you set me to do. I have no recollection anyway. ERASE!"

Madam Pince was knocked out cold on the floor.

Harry stepped into the restricted section.
