Yo! Thank you to all readers so far!

Cho was still unconscious when 'Leo' entered The T Room, the man doing a quick sweep of the place before giving Harry a nod and dropping the burlap sack he'd been carrying over her shoulder, onto the ground. Harry stepped in, looking around cautiously to make sure he hadn't been lied to, as Leo vanished the sack, though they left the unconscious Ravenclaw where she was.

"So, how much did you hear her say?"

"Only the tail end-she claimed she wished to kill you, then come after me." Leo shook his head, exasperated. "How foolish."

"Yeah..."

"You don't think so?"

"No, it's not that... From what she was saying, I can't decide whether I feel bad for her or not," said Harry, eyes on the girl on the ground. "It sounds like she never really got over Cedric's death. I can't really blame her for that-it hasn't even been two years yet. I guess she also never talked to anyone about it, but I don't know if that was because she couldn't, or didn't want to, or whatever."

Leo frowned slightly. "You are saying that her...grief is what caused this?" He didn't entirely understand that, but at the same time, it wasn't as if he understood emotions very much in the first place.

"Maybe? She wasn't like this before Cedric died. And last year she just cried a whole lot. Maybe all of that just got worse over the summer?" Harry's brow furrowed. "How...how do people in the wizarding world handle grief? Especially with, you know, youth or whatever? Muggle's have, like, counsellors and stuff that kids can talk to."

"Ah, yes, I know what you are referring to. There is nothing like that here."

Surprised, Harry said, "Really? Nothing at all? I just thought the reason no one was talking to me about all the horrible things that happened was because Dumbledore refused or something. I didn't realize no one was getting help." Then he was hit with an epiphany. "Hey, when you question her, ask her whether Dumbledore paid her any visits last summer."

Leo frowned again. "Whatever for?" But he realized the answer himself just a second later. "You think he has been manipulating her? That he was the one giving her the information?"

"A teenage girl, left vulnerable when the boy she loved was killed. She tries to date the boy who was there with the one she loved, trying to find, but unable to get closure because the second boy had no closure himself. The situation made worse, her grief is worsened. With no one to talk to about it-no one who would understand, the always so kind Headmaster decides to pay her a visit or two over the summer break, just to make sure she's doing alright, and if he maybe suggested a few things that she took for instant truth in her grief stricken mind... Would you really put it past him?"

"No, no I suppose I wouldn't." If fact, if this exact thing wasn't what had happened, he was going to be very surprised.

So, with that in mind, they started. They woke up Cho, dosed her with Veritaserum before she could begin to protest, asked her an initial question to make sure the potion was working, and then started asking questions. The answers they received from her didn't surprise them in the slightest. Not anymore.

The answers were exactly as Harry had just predicted. Cho had been visited by Dumbledore over the summer. He'd commented on her grief, apologized for it and what had happened to Cedric. Then he'd told her about Harry and Voldemort's letters, had even told her the contents of many of them, which only proved that all the letters Harry had been receiving had definitely been getting read before being given to him. He'd planted all the seeds of doubt, and in her mentally weak state, Cho had believed them all.

While Cho wasn't entirely blameless-she had just tried to attack Harry some moments ago, and was clearly dangerous in her current state, it was Dumbledore who was truly at blame. It seemed Dumbledore wasn't quite as innocent in this whole letter thing as they had at first been assuming.

That's it for now. Looking forward to reviews! Laterz!
