Hebi woke screaming and thrashing about. He sat up crying. He was pulled in to his Papa's arms. He snuggled close to him.

"It's okay, my little prince. " Tom sighed carrying his son into the bathroom. Hebi had peed the bed. He drew a bath for his son then began washing him. "I'll take you to see Severus when we're all cleaned up. He woke up a little while ago and is asking for you."

Hebi sniffled and rubbed his eyes .

Severus had been in a coma for two weeks because he had saved Hebi's life at the school.


Hebi wore black boxers and a black tanktop as he was sat on Severus' bed. Severus smiled as the child instantly curled up with him. He wrapped an arm around Hebi and ran fingers through his hair.

"Have a bad dream, my little Prince?" he asked. Hebi sniffled and nodded, " I'm sorry ."

"My fault not yours." Hebi snuggled closer.

"For tonight I will allow you two to sleep in the same bed." Tom spoke. " If only so you both will go to sleep. Now Severus set a good example for Hebi and take your potions. "

Severus smiled at Hebi and downed his healing potions. He was rewarded with a brilliant grin. He wrapped his arms around his tiny mate and they both settled down to sleep. He didn't even grip when Bella tucked them both in. He was too tired and too in pain to really care. All he cared about was that his little Hebi was okay. Though he was grateful that Tom was letting Harry stay with him for now.


By the time Sept. 1st arrived everyone had their electives and was ready to go. Draco had been taken off of the charms and was acting better. Severus was now Deputy Headmaster at the School as Minerva McGoneggell had taken over as Headmistress.

Hebi stood in his school robes on the platform with his mom and dad looking around. He was holding his mama's hand.

"Hello." Blaise Zabini walked up with his mom, "would it be alright if I escorted the Prince onto the train?"

Hebi looked up at his mama and papa.

"That will be exceptable. " Tom nodded. "I have already loaded his trunk on to the train. I expect you and the other Slytherin's to keep an eye on him at school."

"We will, sir." Blaise replied, "Please come this way, my prince."

"Bye, mama." He hugged her and she kissed his head. "Bye, Papa."

Tom hugged him and kissed his head as well then shooed him along.

Hebi followed Blaise into a train car where Draco, Crabbe, Goyle, Pansy, and Theo Nott were already sitting.

"Are you looking forward to this year?" Draco asked, his cousin. "I think it should be great."

"I want Sev!" Hebi suddenly mumbled, tears in his eyes. " I want Sev..."

" We'll see him in a few hours." Pansy soothed. "It's okay." she patted his knee and batted her eyes at him. " We'll keep you company."

"Get away from my cousin!" Draco growled and pulled her off the seat next to him and pushed her into Crabbe and Goyle. Draco sat next to Hebi instead. "She's a leach, cousin. She's just like her dad. She latches on to the rich people and marries them to get their money. I want my father to break our contract but he wont listen."

"I will write to father and tell him to do so. " Hebi replied, sniffling. Draco rubbed his cousin's back. " I have a contract already, too."

"Really?" Blaise asked, he didn't sound happy about it. " Who is it?"

"I don' wanna..." Hebi was almost sobbing. " tell ..."

"It's okay." Draco held his cousin. "It's okay to be nervous about going to school away from your parents."

Harry shook his head.

"I have bad dreams about the school." he confessed, " 'cuse about two months ago I followed the adults and saw Sev get hurt bad at the school. remember his coma and how he's still walking with a cane?" They nodded, "He got hurt saving me that night and I still have bad dreams about it. Can you write a letter to him for me?"

"Of course." Draco nodded. "He'll write right back."

"Hey look." Crabbe pointed to an owl out the window. He opened the window and it flew in. He caught it it looked exhausted. " It's for you, my prince."

"can you call me Hebi? " they all nodded, he whipped his eyes and looked at the package. He opened it. and smiled, " It's a toy?" this plushie was in human form it wore Yellow spandex and had claws coming out of his hands. "What is it?"

"It's a toy popular in the Muggle World. This one is called Wolverine . " Draco read from the note. "From a super hero team called the X-men. Here the rest is rather private . It's from your contract. "

Indeed it was from Severus. He said he bought the hero toy to make Hebi feel safe when he couldn't be there for him at night. He'd also included a few of the original comics for him to read . Hebi smiled and they settled in to read the super hero comics. Though they quickly noticed that Wolverine wasn't in the first few comics.

The comics had them thinking and entertained until they reached the school.

Only Pansy refused to read them. She wouldn't touch anything Muggle. She even said she was going to report them for being traitors.


After hiding his Comics in his trunk they got off the train. Hebi had hid his Wolverine in his robes to keep it with him.


The toy was originally going to be a Pikachu but I looked it up and Harry went to school in 1991 and Pokemon came out in 1995. You think I would know when Pokemon came out as I'm a huge fan but I forgot.

Anyhow I'm a huge X-men fan as well. Wolvie being my fave of course. So why not I figured . I also thought that reading the X-men could teach them about Diversity and maybe how to get along with others they might not get along with otherwise.

Also there will be Sorting in the next chapter.

Well, I hope you read and review!

THANKS FOR EVERYTHING!
