After dropping off the ring Rose decided to take a walk around the castle when she was suddenly pulled behind a suit of armor. Looking up she saw that it was Fred and George. "Fred! George! What are you doing?" The twins smiled at her and pulled out an old looking book. Rose looked and saw it was a family history of both the Black and Weasley families. "So, Rose we decided we would see how you are related to us, but do you want to guess what we discovered about your family," said Fred. Rose looked at them her eyes wide with shock. She backed herself against the wall feeling for the exit. Unable to find it she did the only thing she could think of. She ran at the twins pushing past them.
Rose couldn't tell how long she had run, but she heard the twins yelling after her. Suddenly she tripped over a rock and cried out in pain. The twins came running up at her scream. "Rose! Are you alright?" asked Fred. Looking up she saw concern in his eyes. "I think I broke my ankle." Fred and George exchanged glances then Fred held out his hand. "Can you stand up?" She took his hand and tried to stand. The moment she put pressure on her leg she let out a scream and Fred held her close. "We have two options we can take you to Madam Pomfrey or we can try to fix your ankle for you," said George. She shook her head and started to cry. "I can't! I just can't do that! Please George fix my ankle," she cried. George nodded as Fred carefully set her down on the ground. "Fred hold her still and muffle her screams. We don't need anyone coming down here and finding us."
Fred nodded and once he had Rose positioned between his legs he put his hand over her mouth. "I'm sorry…" George said before he pointed his wand at her ankle. "Episkey" "Mmphf!" cried Rose. Fred felt tears spilling down her cheeks as he heard a loud crack letting them all know her ankle was fixed. "There you go Rose, good as new." Carefully she stood up and took a step glad that George knew how to heal broken bones. "Thank you George I appreciate the help." She smiled as the twins frowned at her. "Now Rose why did you run away from us the moment we spoke to you about your family?" Rose started to cry, and the twins exchanged a concerned look. "You know I'm not who I say I am. I didn't want to involve you. I want to keep as many people out of it as possible." Fred wrapped his arms around her. He was about five inches taller than her, so he could rest his chin on her head. "You know Rose we don't care about how or why you had to hide the truth, but we do care that you are on the side of good."
Rose looked at the twins and smiled. "I am. I have never been on any other side, but good. If you want to know the truth I don't mind telling you." Fred shook his head and George grinned. "As much as we would love that we know you have your reasons and we respect that. However, if you ever have need of our assistance don't hesitate to ask." The twins walked away as they tossed the book to Rose. Opening the book, she couldn't help but smile. The book was blank the twins had probably placed a charm on it and she had to figure out the right one to read the contents.
Rose looked both ways before she exited the secret passage. Deciding to check up on Severus she headed over towards the infirmary.
