A few minutes later Minerva had them each in a bed and Poppy was looking them over. The woman watched them all but kept glancing back at Harry. He seemed to be the most affected, but being grabbed and threatened would do that to anyone.
"Mild shock for the three Mr. Weasleys and a slightly more severe case for Mr. Potter." Poppy gave her verdict, which agreed with what Minerva was seeing, "I'm going to give them dreamless sleep tonight, but that will be after dinner. I've ordered a late lunch and each have a calming draught. They can receive visitors after they eat."
Filius arrived just as Poppy was finishing, "Mr. Weasley, I'm sorry but your rat was taken by the aurors. They don't know if it is the man that attacked you over the summer but once they get him to the ministry they'll check. Auror Shacklebolt is going to be informing your parents."
"I let him sleep in my bed." Ron gave a small shudder he had to force it since the calming draught was really working.
"I'll buy you any pet you want." Harry spoke for the first time, "Sorry but I never liked Scabbers, rats have always bothered me."
"They'll probably bother..." Fred offered from his bed.
"… all of us now." George finished.
"I'm sure Auror Shacklebolt will even check for animagus if you ask." Harry chuckled slightly.
"I think we'd be…" Fred started.
"…falling on the floor..." George continued.
"…laughing if we weren't…" Fred continued next.
"…drugged to the gills with…" George again went.
"…calming draught." They finished together.
Filius shook his head in amusement as he left. The elves showed up with lunch a moment later. Each plate was piled high with more food than three of them could eat, Ron could probably do it though. His eating habits were better but he still put away a lot of food. They were just finishing when the Weasley parents entered. Harry had to hold himself back and remind himself that he didn't know them yet. His thoughts on that were sidetracked when Tonks and her parents arrived a few moments later.
"Well squirt, what did you do to yourself this time?" Tonks asked as she plopped onto Harry's bed.
"Actually, I don't think we can talk about it yet." Harry shrugged, "It's in the Aurors hands now."
"Aurors?" her hair turned blue, "What happened?"
"Minerva will be explaining at dinner." Andromeda stopped her questions, "For now get out of the way so I can scan him."
"I've already done so." Poppy sounded a bit affronted.
"I have his scans from the summer I want to compare." Andromeda explained not wanting to step on her toes, "I want to make sure this didn't set him back on things I've already fixed."
"I noticed he had some healing." Poppy watched her work, "He did not say who."
"I'm fine Andromeda." Harry started.
"We've spoke of this before." Andromeda patted his head, "I decide when you are fine, not you. I do believe you'd have two broken legs and a collapsed lung and you'd say you were fine."
"You know she's right mate." Ron grinned at him from his own bed.
"You are so very mean for being my best mate." Harry snarked back.
"Ron are you going to introduce us?" Arthur asked.
"Oh, sorry I forgot." Ron cringed, "Harry these are my parents, Molly and Arthur. Mom, Dad my friend Harry."
"Nice to meet you Mr. and Mrs. Weasley." Harry gave a small wave.
"Nice to meet you as well Harry." Arthur replied, Molly was still busily looking over her three sons.
"No setbacks." Andromeda looked relieved, "But I want you to take it easy for the next week. No magic outside of class."
"Do you think that's necessary." Poppy asked, "He is still in the high end of normal range."
"You don't know his starting numbers." Andromeda shook her head, "His bout of accidental magic really took some power. He is normally off the chart."
"Really?" Poppy looked concerned, "Minerva didn't say anything about it."
"Minerva didn't visit him." Andromeda stated, "He was with us."
Minerva entered just as she was speaking, "Albus said he was going to visit. Did Albus bring him to you?"
"He accidentally apparated himself to Diagon Alley from Surry." Andromeda explained.
"My cousin had trapped me down a dead-end alley." Harry shrugged, "I'd already been hit by my uncle and I didn't want more so soon after. I turned to try and hide but ended up right in front of Auror Shacklebolt."
"His relatives are already behind bars." Andromeda explained as they started to speak, "I helped our aurors provide the evidence to the muggle aurors."
"That's how Auror Shacklebolt found us." Ron added from his bed, "Harry stopped him outside the shop and they heard us inside."
Arthur was still listening to it all as they conversed, "I'm sorry for your misfortune but I'm glad you helped find my boys."
"I was kind of glad for my misfortune as well." Harry grinned, "It got me away and I got more magic."
"You always had the magic." Andromeda corrected, "But that did get it free."
Professor Flitwick took that moment to walk into the hospital leading Amelia Bones, "Good everyone in one place.
"Amelia, do you have news?" Minerva asked.
"Mr. Potter, you and your friends cause more trouble." She stated with a grin, "I do hope you are planning on working for me when you grow up."
This was the first time either of the Weasley Parents had heard the boy's last name. They looked at each other with slightly widened eyes as the conversation continued.
"I've not thought that far in advance." Harry grinned unrepentantly.
"I suspect the four of you will surprise us all." She greeted the other adults.
"So, what more mischief have they done today?" Minerva asked.
"Actually Mr. Weasley gave us a dead man." She grinned at Ron, "He's been singing quite a song for us. Under veritaserum of course."
"My rat?" Ron asked.
"Scabbers?" Arthur stood up as did Molly.
"Scabbers is an illegal animagus." Amelia stated, "When Shacklebolt searched your house for clues, he checked all the pets because we got a tip that the man who tried to abduct them was unregistered. He came today to see the rat that was here."
"Professor Flitwick told us that before." Ron nodded, "Who was he?"
"Peter Pettigrew." She announced.
"But…" Molly began.
"He's dead, I know." Amelia nodded, "Turns out Sirius Black wasn't the secret keeper at all. Mr. Pettigrew was and framed Black and then hid with you to keep an eye on the news."
"But his trial…" Minerva tried.
"No trial." Amelia shook her head, "When we asked about that night Pettigrew told us everything. I looked back at the files and Black was sent to Azkaban without a trial. They didn't even check his wand or they'd have known Black's last spell was levitation. Nothing that would blow up a street."
"How did this happen?" Minerva sat on the bed next to Tonks.
"They said he confessed." She shook his head, "I asked him during his trial why he confessed to something he didn't do. He said he was the one to suggest they use Pettigrew so he felt like it was his fault."
"Where is he now?" Harry asked.
"St. Mungo's." She answered, "He is to stay there until he can pass a physical and mental evaluation."
"He'll never get out." Minerva chuckled.
"He said the same thing." Amelia also chuckled.
"Can he receive visitors?" Harry asked.
"Not until they've done a full diagnostic and get him to where he's not in any danger." She replied, "Even then you'll have only supervised visits until he's cleared the mental evaluation."
"I'll take you on a weekend after he's cleared." Andromeda promised.
"But what if he gets cleared on a Monday?" Harry asked, "Could you in all good conscious keep him from getting his first visitor?"
"I'll visit him on Monday." She grinned, "You have to wait for the weekend. No missing classes."
"So unfair." Harry shook his head but his grin showed he was teasing.
"Do I really have to wait for dinner to find out what all is going on?" Tonks huffed, "I know half of it."
"It's not good." Amelia patted her shoulder, "Professor Quirrell died this afternoon. Aurors walked in on him killing Professor Dumbledore and he was stopped. That is all the press and students will know. These four were with the aurors so they need to know the rest. Professor Quirrell was possessed by an evil spirit and when he grabbed Mr. Potter his bout of accidental magic threw Quirrell at the wall. Between hitting the wall very hard and the possessing spirit leaving him Professor Quirrell didn't survive."
"Ms. Tonks you can only repeat the portion that the media will have." Minerva instructed.
"I understand." Tonks turned to Harry, "We can't have people scared of you before you prank them to pieces."
"Exactly!" Harry nodded.
"We plan on helping." Fred added.
"As I said, you four will surprise us I'm sure." Amelia grinned.
"Speaking of surprises." Andromeda spoke quietly to Harry, "Ted and I were actually coming today to take you to Gringotts. They said they had the results. Do you know what they're talking about?"
Harry looked confused and deep in thought for several minutes, "Oh, I think I know. They audited my vaults. They told me that the day Kingsley took me to have the block removed. I'd forgotten about that."
"Why did they audit them?" Tonks whispered in confusion, her hair turning turquoise as she asked.
"They thought Professor Dumbledore was raising me here at Hogwarts." Harry shrugged as he quietly explained, "When I didn't even know who he was they wanted to know where the money for my care went. The Dursley's always made it out like they didn't get anything from my family to help with food and stuff."
"I'm going to go let them know where you are." Ted stood.
"Should he share anything about today?" Andromeda stopped Ted with a hand on his arm.
"Kingsley will probably tell them." Harry shrugged, "But I don't care if you tell them everything you know. As long as Madam Bones doesn't care."
The last sentence had been spoken a bit louder and caught the woman's attention and she approached and spoke quietly, "As long as I don't care about what?"
"I need to explain to the goblins why Harry can't come for a meeting today." Ted explained
"I'm heading there next so you can come along with me." She agreed.
"Tell them next weekend." Andromeda stated, "I don't want to see him traveling by magical means until at least Wednesday or Thursday."
"I will." Ted agreed as he followed Amelia through the floo.
"Nymphadora." Andromeda turned to her daughter who had a frown and red hair, "Oh, stop. I need to discuss some private matters with Harry. Off you go."
"Fine, I know when I'm not wanted." She grinned at Harry, "Mum likes you best."
"I cause less trouble." Harry tried.
"That's debatable. I think its closer to a tie with you two." Once the girl was gone Andromeda pulled the curtains and used a privacy spell, "I'm going to make a few assumptions here. Based on everything that has gone on and you already knowing occlumency I've got a wild guess or two. With the amount of magic, you used to dispatch Quirrell, I want you to pretend to practice in class and just do the magic when the professor calls on you. Do you know what I'm asking you to do?"
"I've been doing it all year." Harry smiled, "Appear to struggle enough to not get it first or second but more down the line no later than fifth or sixth. Don't use magic until I want the spell to work. I'm curious what your guesses are?"
"My first thought was that you were a prodigy." She admitted, "Then I thought maybe that horcrux had taught you magic. But that didn't make since because nothing about you is evil or dark in any way. I think it's time travel but I'm unsure whether you came back and de-aged or if you sent memories back to yourself. I do have to say your acting skills are top notch. I was convinced you were just a prodigy until I found out about the horcrux and occlumency."
"Madam Bones knows more than you do if you need to talk to someone." Harry gave her a small smile.
"I'll keep that in mind." She agreed, "Anything else you want to discuss before I remove the privacy spell?"
"Ron and George came with me." Harry stated, "Fred is included because of their twin mind link thing. Many people died last time. But with Voldemort and Dumbledore gone and the death eaters being arrested as new evidence comes to light, we have a chance to have a good victory this time."
She nodded and dropped the privacy spell, "Time for you to get some rest."
She pushed back the privacy curtains and he noticed the other three were asleep. He turned on his side and closed his eyes. Hopefully the nightmares would stay away with the calming draught. He woke sometime later to his stomach growling.
"I told you that would work." Tonks said as Harry opened his eyes. She was setting a plate of food on his tray.
"What time is it?" He asked as he sat up.
"Time for you to get a watch." Tonks grinned at him then added, "Dinner time."
"You need a new joke." Harry sat up and pushed the tray back a bit, "And I need the loo."
Harry returned to find Tonks, Neville and Hermione talking quietly with Ron and the twins as they ate. He climbed into his own bed and Tonks pushed the tray closer.
"Thanks." He said before he started to eat, he was starving.
"How are you feeling?" Tonks asked.
"Hungry." He grinned and took another bite, "So what's going on? What have we missed?"
"She broke the news at dinner." Tonks explained, "The rumor mill is trying to find the connection between the four of you in the hospital with the death of two professors and they're speculating wildly."
"As expected at Hogwarts." George grinned.
"What are the best ones?" Fred asked.
"The four of you stopped Quirrell after he killed Dumbledore." Hermione told them.
"You four really killed both professors and have threatened the aurors to keep their silence." Neville chuckled as he told them another.
"The aurors killed them both and you're being threatened to keep quiet about it." Tonks added.
"I think the best one is the one that says Quirrell killed Dumbledore and Hogwarts used your magics to kill Quirrell." Hermione offered.
"I like the alien one better." Neville grinned, "Aliens from outer space killed both of them and now they are posing as aurors to take over earth."
"Merlin." Harry laughed, "Which muggleborn thought that one up?"
"Dean did." Neville grinned, "But it was just to stir the cauldron with all the crazy ideas going on."
"You haven't heard my favorite yet." Tonks pretended to pout.
"I'm absolutely sure I don't want to hear your favorite!" Harry stated but grinned to let her know he was teasing.
"McGonagall." She grinned, "She caught Quirrell and Dumbledore making out and killed them both in a fit of jealously."
"You are mean for putting that in our heads." Harry groaned, "That has to be the worst."
"What's that bad?" McGonagall asked, she had entered just as Harry spoke.
"Rumors." Ron shivered.
"The Hogwart's rumor mill…" George began.
"…is warped." Fred shivered.
"And puts mean…" George began again.
"…things in our heads." Fred added.
"It's a cruel thing to do." Harry and the twins ended together.
