------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hours and hours after the Bludger incident at the Quidditch match, a loud crack jerked both Yugi and Harry awake from their recuperating sleep. "What in the name of Ra?" Yugi asked sleepily. Harry looked around in the darkness, but couldn't find anything, then he felt someone sponging his forehead. He reached out into the darkness and grabbed whoever was doing it.
"Dobby? Is that you?" he whispered. Yugi peered through the dark and saw the house-elf's outline, followed by his large orb-like eyes. "Dobby, what in the name of Ra are you doing in here?" Harry questioned him. The House-elf stepped back quickly and looked pleadingly at them both. "Harry Potter and Yugi Motou should not be at Hogwarts! Dobby warned you both! Why did you come back, even though you both missed the train?" he asked them.
"Well, the barrier closed up and-," Yugi started before looking at Harry. Harry realized what they had heard and gripped Dobby by the pillowcase he wore. "It was you that sealed the barrier. You kept us from going onto the Hogwarts Express!" he hissed at the poor creature. Dobby lowered his head, "Yes sir, it was me. Dobby hid and watched as Harry Potter and Yugi Motou approached the barrier, before sealing it. Afterwards I had iron my hands," he showed his fingers which were wrapped in gauze bandages.
"But Dobby didn't care sirs, I had to do it for your own good!" he said defensively. "Dobby never thought that both of you would find another way to come to Hogwarts! Dobby was so shocked at the news, he let his master's dinner burn!" he howled, clutching his ears. Harry slumped back onto his pillows and sighed.
Yugi took his turn, "You nearly got him, me, Mokuba, Ron and Brian expelled!" he scowled. Dobby bounced up and down, "Yugi Motou and Harry Potter must go home! Dobby thought his Bludger would make you both go home-," the House-elf started before Harry interrupted him. "Your Bludger? You made that thing go crazy and sent both of us in here!".
Dobby cringed at the tone in Harry's voice, "Sirs, please! You MUST go home! Bad things are going to happen at Hogwarts and already have begun! Now that the Chamber of Secret's is open-," Dobby froze horrorstruck. He grabbed a waterjug and brought it down onto his own head. It broke into dozens of pieces and he fell off the bed and out of sight.
Yugi and Harry leaned over to see him, then Dobby climbed back onto the bed, cross-eyed. "So there IS a Chamber of Secrets! When was it first opened, Dobby! You gotta tell us!" he said leaning over to the elf. "Dobby mustn't say anymore!" he squeaked, reaching for another jug. Harry seized his arm before he could grasp it, "Dobby, listen to me VERY carefully...I'm not in danger from the Chamber because I'm not Muggle-born, but some of my best friends are!" he hissed.
Dobby shook his head, "No sir! Dobby mustn't tell!" he squeaked. His large ears then picked upand quivered, footsteps were heard nearby and by the sound of them, they were coming to the Hospital Wing. "Dobby must go now, sirs! Please, heed my warning!" the House-elf then disappeared with a snap of his fingers and a loud crack. "Dobby, hold up!" Yugi cried softly, but he was too late.
The door to the Hospital Wing opened and both Harry and Yugi quickly laid back down and pretended to be asleep. Voices soon echoed through the room, "Goodness gracious, Albus!" Professor McGonagall's voice was heard. The two young wounded wizards slowly and quietly looked over at the source and saw some of the teachers carry in what looked like two statues.
"Filch found them, we suspect they were coming to see Potter and Motou," Snape explained to Madame Pomfrey. "Here, lay them both right here," the Nurse instructed. Through the dim lights of the room, Yugi and Harry saw that the two statues were Colin Creevey and Rebecca Hawkins. They were frozen just like Mrs. Norris was. Rebecca was clutching her teddy bear and Colin had his camera in front of his face.
"Do you think he took a picture of their attacker?" McGonagall asked Dumbledore softly. He wrenched the camera from the boy's hands and pulled the back open to see the film. Suddenly a whooshing sound, and a foul stench reached Harry and Yugi's senses. The film inside had melted somehow. "What does this mean, Albus?" McGonagall asked the Headmaster. "It means, my dear Minerva, that the Chamber of Secrets has indeed been reopened," he said softly. Madam Pomfrey gasped and put her hands to her mouth and Snape looked onto the frozen students, while Harry and Yugi just stared wide-eyed at the scene.
"But Albus...who?" she asked the old man. Dumbledore shook his head and looked onto both Rebecca and Colin, "The question is not who, Professor, but how,". From Harry and Yugi's point of view, they could tell that neither Dumbledore, Snape, Pomfrey nor McGonagall understood.
