Harry gave Victor one last hit and then got up and walked over to Hermione who was tied to a chair. When he tried to get close to her he found that there was some kind of wall that he couldn't get through. Dumbledore saw this and pulled out his wand and did a counter spell so Harry could get to Hermione. Professor Dumbledore then told Harry, "Take Hermione to Madam Pomfrey and get her checked out. Then when your done there I want both of you in my office so I can talk with you. Now go."

Harry untied Hermione's hands and helped her out of the chair and then lead her out of the room. He had left his broom outside the door. He grabbed it on his way out. When they reached the shore of the Black Lake. Harry looked at Hermione and said, "I know you don't like flying but it would be quicker if we fly. You can sit in front of me and I will have my arms on either side of you. I will not let anything happen to you I promise you." Hermione looked at him and nodded her head yes that she would fly with him. Harry got on the broom first and then waited for Hermione to climb on. When she got on he put his arms around her and took hold of the broom. He made sure that she was settled on the broom then he pushed off. He directed the broom to the front of the castle. He gently landed and waited for Hermione to get off. Then he helped her up in the castle and up to the hospital wing. When they walked in Madam Pomfrey was waiting for them. Dumbledore must have told her before he came to the ship. "Hermione I need you to lay on the bed so I can check you."

Hermione climb on the bed and then looked over at Harry. Madam Pomfrey walked over and said to them, "Mr. Potter I need you to leave so I can check Miss Granger in private."

"Can he stay please?"

"Fine. But you stand right there and don't move till I say you can."

"Yes mama I will stand right here."

Madam Pomfrey pointed her wand at Hermione and said some kind of spell. A yellow light shoot out of the tip of her wand. She moved the wand down over Hermione. When the light changed to green she was done. After a few minutes a piece of paper came out of the tip of the wand and Madam Pomfrey looked at it. After she read it she conjured a tube of medicne then looked at Hermione and said, "You are going to have some nasty bruises. You will need to rub this on them once in the morning and then once at night. With the one on your back you may need help with that one." Harry was watching Hermione but also listening to what Madam Pomfrey was saying. He noticed that Hermione was shaking so he walked over to her and placed a hand on her shoulder. "Is there anything you can give her for the shaking?"

Madam Pomfrey looked at Hermione and saw that she wasn't shaking. "I don't think she needs anything. You seem to have a good effect on her. Just look at her she isn't shaking anymore."

Harry looked down at her and saw how clam she was. After a few more minutes Harry and Hermione walked to Professor Dumbledore's office. Harry opened the door and let Hermione pass. Hermione walked in and started looking around the office. Harry watched her very carefully as he sat in a chair. Hermione walked over and leaned up against Dumbledores' desk. She started to cry. Harry leaned forward and grabbed Hermione's arm and pulled her to him. He pulled her down into his lap. She didn't fight him or anything she sat down. She placed her head on his shoulder and cried. Harry had his right arm wrapped around her legs and was running his left hand up and down her back. He was gently rocking back and fort and whispering some comforting words to her. Little did they know that Professor Dumbledore and Professor McGonagall were standing in the doorway listening to everything Harry was saying. Professor Dumbledore cleared his throat and then walked in Hermione got up out of Harry's lap. She walked over to another chair and sat down. Professor McGonagall walked up to stand beside the desk. Then Professor Dumbledore asked, "Hermione I know this is going to be hard on you but I need to know everything that happened today. Feel free to take your time."

Hermione sat there holding Harry's hand for support and strength. She took a deep breath then began to talk them what happened from the start. "It all started at the Yule Ball. Victor and I went outside for a breath of fresh air. We kissed and then he started taking things a little far. He was touching me all over or trying to. I kicked him and ran from him. After the dance I was talking with Ron and we got into a fight. Harry wanted to know what was wrong with me. So he and I went into an empty class room and I told him was happened. The next morning Victor came over to talk to me at breakfast but I didn't want to talk to him. Then on Friday afternoon He sent me a letter to me. In it he was talking about how I am his and that every time I turn around he will be there. I told Harry about it. Then today I was walking with Ron to the Quidditch statdium. When we got there Harry or who I thought was Harry was standing out on the bridge. The person said they wanted to talk me alone. So I went with him we walked over to the lake and stood there and talked. The next thing I know he was pointing his wand at me and fired the stufpy spell on me. Then he picked me up and walked on the ship and into his room. Then he did the counter spell and tied me to a chair. He keep telling me that no one who find me not even Harry. I told him that Harry would fine me and save me. That is when Harry knocked on the door and started hitting Victor. That's all."
