The Heart of Gaea (Earth)
Chapter 4: Forgotten Part One of Two
Albus and Minerva waited patiently outside the Medical Wing. Snape was leaning against a wall watching with fascination how the Headmaster and his Deputy Headmistress looked so nervous. Poppy had asked them al to wait outside while she gave Starlight a physical exam just to make sure she was ok. The girl had woken up three hour ago, three hours that Minerva and Albus had spend trying to fins out any news about N. And during that time neither could come nor see her until now.
On the other hand Snape had gotten to know Starlight. She was a combination of Dumbledore and McGonagall, yet something he could not figure out. It was as if she was part of something else. Something that pulled him, mind, body, and soul to her like a magnet. And that was something Severus Snape was not used to.
The doors opened startling all three people outside. Poppy comes out with a worried faced before closing the doors. She sighs before speaking, "All in all she is physically well. No signs of the bullet not other scratches she had. But…"
Minerva looks at Albus then back at Poppy. "What is it?"
"Minerva...I fear that Starlight has lost all memory of what happened. And that if she was to remember her mind and her spirit wouldn't be able to handle it."
Minerva gasped and leaned in closer to Albus, who places ad arm around her shoulder. He looks down before looking up an Poppy. "How…how could she lose her memory?"
"I can only say that due to her type of blood and what she is…" at this Pomfrey glances at Snape.
"I know what the girl is," Snape replies in his usual stern voice.
Pomfrey nods, "I do not know much of the Elemental ways. I would need to consult with a friend in America, but I think that just like a human, her mind has locked the memories deep in her mind.
Unknown to them, two young boys are eaves dropping on them. One with red hair and the other with raven fuzzy hair. Both with their mouths open, neither able to move from what they are hearing, but the red headed boy jumping from joy in the inside for having known he'd been right!!
In the meantime, inside the hospital wing, Starlight finished tying her tennis-shoes. She did not know how Madame Pomfrey-that was what the nice lady had said was her name-been able to get her clothing just her size and her type. She wore black bell bottoms, with a long black t-shirt. A lose black belt with red roses hung around her hips above the shirt. She'd been able to do her hair back into its normal odango hair style. A bit sailor Moon-ish but she loved it. Taking one last look in the mirror she smiles.
The doors open and through them come Pomfrey, followed by a man in purple robes and a long beard, next to him is a tall dark haired woman with forest green eyes and wearing emerald robes. And then behind them is Snape. Why in the world do this people wear robes? I mean was I really that sick that I miss Halloween? But nope, can't be. The Calendar said December 22…So then?
Starlight smiles at all of them, "Hello!"
