The Private Ward

Harry, who was nearest to the witch at the front desk said, "Excuse me? Can you tell me what room Remus Lupin is in?"

The witch consulted her long list of patients, "Lupin…Lupin…" she muttered, "Ah here we are, Remus Lupin, room 317 and it's a private ward so you can have some time with Mr. Lupin undisturbed. Poor chap," she added in an undertone.

"Thank you," he said then he rushed off to the others. "He's in room 317 Mrs. Weasley. Oh and it's a private ward. So if it's in the 300's then it'll be on floor three I suppose. So shall we go?"

They all set off in search of the correct room and found it rather quickly then knocked on the door.

"Come in," the Healer said and Harry pushed open the door to find Lupin lying there asleep. He walked over to Lupin, tears streaming down his face. There laid the person who was closest to Sirius in his last years, all frail and broken, and Harry could do nothing to help him. The Weasley's stayed back giving Harry a bit of time. Harry could see the gashes in Lupin's face where Greybeck had attacked him. He collapsed into a chair beside Lupin's bed. He wanted Lupin to wake up and say hello, but he just lay there peacefully.

Soon Ginny walked forward cautiously, "Harry?" she asked, "Are you alright?" She was standing next to him now with tears in her eyes, remembering how this had happened to Bill too.

"Oh, I'm alright." It was half true because he was alright, miserable, but alright.

"When I find Voldemort and his followers," Harry outburst suddenly, "I'm going to kill him but Greybeck will be next in line!" he ended yelling and then, amazingly, Lupin's eyelids flickered open.

"Harry…" Lupin whispered, "thank you all for coming. I guess I shouldn't have let it slip that Hagrid had went to go persuade the giants to join Dumbledore. That's something only someone in the Order would know."

"It's alright," Harry murmured, "but you need your rest," and with that Lupin closed his eyes and fell back to sleep.

When Lupin awoke a few hours later Harry, Ginny, Ron, Hermione, and Mrs. Weasley were still there. "Did you sleep alright Remus?" Hermione asked.

"Very well, thank you." Lupin replied.

"Are you hungry Remus? Could we get you anything?" Harry asked wanting Lupin well again.

"No thank you," Lupin said weakly, "It's very kind of you Harry, but I'm not very hungry. So has anything been happening with any of you lately? I haven't talked to any of you in so long. By the way how's Tonks?"

Harry chuckled. It seemed that Tonks had finally convinced Lupin to call her by her preferred name.

"Oh, she's fine," Mrs. Weasley assured Lupin, "but I think these four have some very exciting news!"

All four of them blushed but they all knew that Lupin would be happy for them.

"We're dating," they all said together.

"Well by we, we mean me and Ginny and Ron and Hermione," Harry clarified as Ron, Hermione, and Ginny burst out laughing.

"Are you really? Well done! If Dumbledore was alive I am sure he would be thrilled," Lupin said.

"But he is alive," Harry said only just remembering his encounter with Dumbledore at the Ministry.

"WHAT?" Lupin said, bolting upright and getting out of bed.

"Ya. Ron and I saw him first, he was the apperation instructor. Then we told Ginny and she didn't believe us so she went to check for herself, and finally the rest of the Weasley's saw him." Harry explained.

"What…How…" Lupin said trying to figure it out.

"It's a thrilling tale, and to give it justice, I feel that you should here from Dumbledore himself." Harry said.

Just then Dumbledore walked in to see Lupin, "Harry and the others have told you I presume?" he asked as he went to go shake Lupin's hand.

"Yes," Lupin said in awe, "But he said that you should tell the tale to give it justice."

"Well if that's what Harry said, then that's how it should be!" Dumbledore said enthusiastically. Dumbledore then told Lupin his tale during which Lupin gasped multiple times.

"So there we are," Dumbledore said, "Oh and Harry during the past few weeks I have found and destroyed the cup and the item of Ravenclaw's which was a bowl. I have a feeling I know where the locket really is if you would come with me and Mr. Weasley, Miss Weasley, and Miss Granger too if they would like, this one will not be dangerous to any of us.

Harry gasped "Of course!" he said at once then he turned to Ron, Hermione and Ginny and said, "Ron, Hermione, Ginny do you want to come?"

"Oh mum, can we?" Ginny asked Mrs. Weasley.

"Well…" Mrs. Weasley said slowly, "as long as Dumbledore is with you I am sure it will be alright."

Ginny squealed, "Oh thanks mum!" she said excitedly.

Then they all held onto Dumbledore's arm, he turned on the spot, and they all vanished with a crack.
