OMG I FORGOT MY DISCLAIMERS! I don't own the Harry Potter Franchise or anything relating. All familiar content belongs to J.
That said, here's chapter 2!
Draco opened the door to Head Healer Young's office with a bang. Young looked up from his file and removed his reading glasses. "Well?"
"I do know him. I want his case. Exclusively. He oozes dark magic. I don't know where to start separating what could be curses from what could be natural."
"Why would it be natural? What would you do if it is?"
"He is a war veteran. Refer him to a Psywizard." Draco answered promptly.
Young sighed and rubbed is eyes. "Very well. What else do you need?"
"Access to the Mental Diseases and Curses wing of the library and the ingredients to start the Wolfsbane potion."
"He's a werewolf?" Young said in panicked shock.
"He thinks so. Better safe than sorry. Of course, I will test before I administer the potion, but the brewing takes time."
"Done. Anyone you want to bring in on the case?"
"Not one from here. I may bring in some people he knows, but not yet. Do we have his wand?"
"We have the one he was detained with. 13 inches, holly and phoenix feather."
"Yes, that is it. I want to return it."
"No. He is dangerous enough as it is." Young snapped.
"Does it matter if he has his wand or not? It's his wandless magic causing all the problems. If it makes things worse, I will take it back, but it will probably put him more at ease, and make him more cooperative."
Young sighed again. "Fine. How did the patient react to you?"
"He recognized my voice. He was compliant to a degree. He thinks he has been captured by the Dark Lord and is awaiting their duel, which happened nine years ago. He remember people he knew, but not what has happened to them. He…doesn't know some of them are dead."
"Don't tell him yet."
"I told him I was 26." Draco said with a slight smirk.
Young eyed him warily. "Why?"
"I am a month older than him."
"And how did he react to that?" Young said, still wary.
"He screamed in pain."
"And you left him?" Young exclaimed, standing up.
"The med witches are taking care of it." Draco said soothingly.
"Why would you do that?"
"Payback. He and I…have an extensive history."
"Will that affect your judgment?"
"No sir. That is the only act I will take, and the only time. It was petty, but it also served a purpose. I hope it will snap him out of his delusion."
"Who is he?" Young said in his 'I'm-your-boos-so-you-must-obey-answer-me voice.'
"Harry Potter."
Shorter chapter and a longer wait, I know, but I will most likely never update on Wednesday. That's the day when all my friends come over all day.

Reviews!
Maurader's Queen- Thank you! I tried really hard. No, Voldemort is not alive. I guess I forgot to mention, it's canon until the epilogue. More will be explained next chapter.
Just one? I'm not a review whore, but seriously? *sigh* Anyway, I got a pole up. Maybe people will give me feedback that way. Also, if someone can think of a better title, I'd appreciate hearing it. I just picked something so I could post.
Next chapter: Harry and Draco have their first lucid conversation.
