"Is he dead?" She asked. I laughed.
"No of course not- I stupefied him so he couldn't get away." I said. I saw that Snape was the other form walking, and he was guiding Harry, Ron and my father on stretchers, all of them passed out. We walked up to the castle, and waited in the entrance hall for Snape to come with the others. Dumbledore, McGonagall and the minister were already there.
"Miss Granger, Miss Black. Care to explain what you were doing outside at this time of night?" McGonagall asked.
"Well, you see Professor-"
"-We had gone down to Hagrid's so we could say our goodbyes to Buckbeak-"
"-And then we left, but Weasley lost his rat-"
"-And he ran towards the Whomping willow!"
"So we followed him, but then this big black dog came running out and dragged Weasley into the tree!"
"So we followed! With Harry!"
"And then my dad was there, and we argued and then Lupin came in and we argued some more, and then Snape came, and we knocked him out-hahaha!" I said, breaking off into laughter. Hermione shot me a glare before continuing on with the story.
"And Professor Lupin and Mr. Black changed scabbers back into Peter Pettigrew!"
"-Still looked like a rat to me!" I mumbled.
"Oh! And Rita has him!" Hermione said.
"Oh, Yeah!" I said, yanking the stupefied rat from my pocket, and handing him to Dumbledore.
"Be careful when you unfreeze him, he likes to try and get away. Put him in a cage first or something." I warned. Hermione nodded.
And then Snape walked up.
"Hello Headmaster. I have found Black, and like I had already said, Lupin was helping him."
"HE'S LYING!" Hermione and I yelled.
"Take them up to the Hospital Wing please, and take Miss Granger with you. Straight there, and inform Poppy to attend to Mr. Weasley and Mr. Black immediately. Oh, And Mr. Potter as well." Dumbledore said calmly.
"What about me, Professor?" I asked.
"You are going to come with us in case we have any questions. Severus, after you take them there, bring me Veritaserum, please." He said before motioning for me to follow him, McGonagall and the Minister. I skipped down the hall after them.
"Okay, Miss Black. I think that is all we need from you. Severus? Take her up to the Hospital Wing, please." Dumbledore ordered. I smirked at Snape behind his back and strutted out.
He grumbled something, but brushed past me and led me towards the Hospital Wing anyways.
"Hu. You fly as fast as a bat, too. Did you know that?" I asked, looking up at him innocently. He glowered and opened the door.
"Thanks, Professor!" I said, just to annoy him, as I walked in.
"How'ya doin' Weasley?" I asked, patting his leg. He winced and hissed. I merely snickered and walked towards Hermione.
"What did they say?"
"Nothing, really. We kind of just waited for Snape to bring that truth-serum shit-" I said, but a gruff voice cut me off.
"Oy! Watch the language." I looked over to see Sirius sitting up in a hospital bed.
I smiled and laughed.
"But you never did."
"And how do you know that?" He asked. I smirked widely.
"Remus." He laughed and shook his head.
"I'll have to have a word with him…"
I yawned and pushed Hermione off her bed, stealing her spot.
"Hey! There are plenty of other beds you could lay on!" She protested.
"Exactly. So that means you'll have no trouble finding another one." I teased, smiling as I yawned again.
Madam Pomfrey came rushing over as she realized she had another child in here to take care of. She grabbed my left arm and I winced. She wrapped it up as I explained to Hermione what had happened after I left them at the tree.
I looked back over at the nurse as she tried to put my arm in a splint.
"Oh, no Madam Pomfrey, I think I'm fine-" I said but she waggled her finger in my face.
"Nonsense, child. You sprained your elbow."
"Is that even possible?" I asked Hermione while Ron snickered.
"You kids should have never been so close to that tree. Serves you right." Pomfrey said scornfully.
"Actually, I got this from running into a wall…" I mumbled.
"Oh dear, such a clumsy thing. You should have fun with that, Mr. Black." She said before finishing with my arm and darting away again. I yawned and layed down.
"Seven AM!" I warned, falling to sleep almost immediately.
