Chapter 46 Saving Leanne and the aftermath

12th January 1998, cave unknown location

They were slowly walking when Remus put up his hand to make the others stop. Remus whispers "I can smell them I think they can smell me too."

Suddenly they hear "brother we can smell you. Please come here so we can welcome you."

Remus whispers "stay here. It seems they think I am one of them as they can smell me and Greyback did turn me. I will try to distract them."

Remus walks forward and sees the six werewolves.

One doesn't trust him and says "who are you and what are you doing here?"

One other says to the one that doesn't trust him "relax Leon don't you smell him. He is also a werewolf and also smells that Greyback had turned him."

The one name Leon says "maybe you are right."

Remus sees that four of the six seem to trust him and two do not. He looks around and see Leanne in some kind of cage and has clearly been hit across her face and at how she looks probably also on her body.

The one that trusts him says "ah you see our little prize. We saw the little thing walking around in the forest. She was afraid so we thought let's take her and give her to Greyback. It took a couple of days but I think we managed to tame her, now the only thing to happen is for Greyback to take her in when he is a werewolf, bite her to turn her and take her when she changes into a werewolf tonight."

Remus says "yeah. What is it a muggle or a mug….. mudblood."

Another said "she is a mudblood alright. She had her wand and everything. She tried to curse us but we were too fast and easily outnumbered her obviously."

Remus hates himself for calling her a mudblood. He sees Leanne looking at them when she hears the word mudblood. She looks in fear as she thinks Remus joined them to keep her here and maybe also hit her. They hit her when they forced her to service them with a blowjob as Greyback allowed that.

Another says to Remus "do you want to give her mouth a try. I think we trained her enough for Greyback to enjoy but I think more training should be better."

Remus let his wand fall and stuns the one who said that. The others look shocked at what makes Remus able to stun Leon. Remus screams "NOW."

Harry and the others rush in. Harry managed to stun two within seconds. Remus is hit with a diffindo by one who is stunned by Harry just after his curse went to Remus. Remus needs to take cover and tries to heal his wound. Remus has trouble however closing his wound as when he moved to cover he has hurt his right hand which is his wand hand. The others also went for cover which manage the two remaining Werewolves to Rennervate the other four and soon it was six to five as Remus is still out of the battle.

The werewolves use dark curses but no unforgivable. Harry whispers to Jacob "I need you to help Remus to close the wound and if possible heal his hand."

Jacob nod. Harry looks just over his cover and needs to immediately duck back but manages to see where the others are. Harry gets Bill, Fleur and Kingsley's attention and us his hand to count down. They all nodded and when Harry lowers his last finger as one man they stand up and start firing after Harry cast a spell between his and Jacob's hiding space and Remus' hiding space.

Jacob manages to get to Remus. Harry and Kingsley hit the same person and he gets blasted to the wall. Bill and Fleur both spells hit a shield that broke after the second spell. The third spell by Bill hit him square in his chest. The spell is an Expulso that pushes him to the wall just like the others but he can stand up in opposition to the other one.

One is taken out of battle be it dead or unconscious and one other is injured but still in the fight. Harry looks to the side and sees that Jacob has healed the wound and is moving his wand over Remus' right hand.

Then next couple of minutes spells are exchanged but nobody was hitting one of the other sides. Suddenly Harry notices six spells and sees that Jacob and Remus are also fighting although he notices that Remus still can't move his right hand like normal.

Remus says "they are trying to surround us and use their inhuman speed."

Harry immediately cast Aguamenti to the ground surrounding the werewolf group which was spreading out which makes Remus notice their plan. Harry immediately follows by casting Glacius at the ground making it ice so the Werewolves will slip if they try to use their speed. Two Werewolves jump up to get past the ice Harry made to still be able to use their speed. Within a second from each other, they are hit with Impedimenta slowing them down to normal humans by Harry.

The other Werewolves seeing that start to throw darker curses which the others return in turn. Bonebreakers, piercing and Reducto's were cast. Some jinxes and hexes were cast like the knee-reversing hex, Locomotor Mortis (Leg-Locker Curse) and Rictusempra also known as the Tickling Charm. The two who were slower couldn't find their balance while being slower and when they start to cast dark curses two piecing curses took care of them. One went straight to the heart by Kingsley and the other went just right of the heart with heavy blood pouring out. The spell was cast by Remus.

The reaming three werewolves lost their head and were now growling. Remus responds by showing himself what makes him get hit by two curses as Harry manages to put up a shield for the third. Remus is again losing blood but a lot this time and was hit to the wall and has certainly broken his left arm.

Harry looks at Jacob who shakes his head meaning he can't heal all that. He closes the wound but he can't do more. Harry says "cover me."

Kingsley, Bill and Fleur nod and immediately start casting. The werewolves heard him as Harry moves to the rock that Jacob and Remus use as cover. The Werewolves cast all at Harry and he gets hit in the right leg with a bonebreaker curse but he manages to reach the large rock. One of the Werewolves is hit with a bonebreaker to his head followed by a piercing curse straight through his head by first Fleur and then Bill.

Harry sees that Remus is having a hard time. He grabs a rock and cast Portus and cuts his left hand with the sharp side getting some blood on the rock. He says "Kingsley I need to use a Portkey."

Kingsley understands and when he takes cover waves his wand. After almost a minute Kingsley nods. Harry put the rock in Remus's good hand and says "Remus hold on tight."

Remus is looking white but nods. As soon as Harry sees that Remus is holding on tight Harry points his wand and says "activate."

Remus Portkey's out and Harry nods to Kingsley who waves his wand and nods back that the wards are in place again.

Harry says "Jacob I need your help to take the last two out of at least one. I am sorry to ask but you need to cast to kill as I need to get Leanne out of here I promised Katie. Hermione helped me with this one when she used it on my ex-friend."

Jacob nods very nervously. Harry sees and says "I know it may not be easy but if we stay too long Greyback comes and he can call in reinforcement. They would kill us or torture us before they kill us especially if we don't want to give the others up and I am afraid of what would even happen to Fleur. Tom is also a Master Legilimens and will torture us long enough until one break or until we are too hurt to resist him and I think you know what can happen."

Jacob know nods with confidence and says "you are right Harry. I am ready."

Harry says "good."

Harry casts Avis and when he has a lot of small looking bird and a few small owls fly he points his wand at one of the werewolves who didn't see him as he evades spells from Kingsley, Bill and Fleur Harry scream the first spell out loud (all other were non-verbally) "Oppugno" and the birds attack the werewolf. The birds keep him pinned to one place and Jacob uses a Reducto followed by Confringo to the chest of the Werewolf launching him against the wall heavily bleeding and open eyes not trying to close the wound on his chest although I wouldn't help as almost his whole chest lies open.

The last werewolf has a bit more room to move now and can keep evading and can even fire back. Bill says "that is probably one of Greyback's Beta's."

Harry feels his leg but he knows he needs to do something. He thinks 'the girls are going to kill me but I have no choice.'

He faintly hears 'Harry whatever you are thinking, don't it, try something else.'

Harry thinks back 'I have no choice right now.'

He hears 'NO' before he closes his Occlumency shields. He says "Kingsley I need you here."

Kingsley nods and just as he sends a spell he tries to get to Harry. Kingsley didn't see the Diffindo coming. He gets hurt on his side and back by a large cut. The werewolf uses Confringo if Harry must believe what the werewolf says.

Harry stands on his broken leg and casts "Protego" which managed to stop two of Confringo's shots at Kingsley.

The werewolf manages to evade the curses and spells Bill and Fleur shoots at him to cover Kingsley.

Harry asks "Kingsley are you fine?"

Kingsley says "I will be fine what do you need Harry."

Harry says "I want you to shoot me to the werewolf."

Kingsley asks "are you crazy Harry? With you there, we cannot help you by casting!"

Harry says "I know but we need to keep him busy. I can do that and while I do that you can free Leanne."

Kingsley says "Harry I don't know also I think we need you to release Leanne she knows you."

Harry says "well as long as that werewolf is active we have no choice."

Kingsley says "alright but if your wives get mad at me I say it is your idea and I tried to make you change your mind."

Harry says "duly noted. When Leanne is free, call for Dobby and Kreacher, when they are here let them drop the wards and Kingsley you need to drop yours too. Then get out of here and ask Kreacher and Dooby to get you to the manor. I need you to cast the spell Kingsley to get me there as you are an Auror you are probably the most in control of the spell."

Kingsley nods just as they hear a scream and see in the cover spot next to them Bill falling down by a Confringo to his wand arm and Fleur being blasted to the wall by Expulso. She stopped casting in fear for her husband before she could get all Veela on the werewolf's ass she gets unconscious by hitting the wall.

Harry says "no we need to do it. Jacob can you cast Deprimo near the werewolf to hope the shattering from the ground makes him unable to cast by stumbling, falling or something similar."

Jacob nods. Harry asks "ready Kingsley?"

Kingsley nods and when Harry says "now."

He flies over the rock just as Jacob jumps to the side to fire the spell. The Werewolf heard anything and expected it. However, as he didn't know where Jacob could appear from it give Jacob the time to cast it before he needs to take cover again.

The werewolf is stumbling but not enough to lose his footing before Harry lands near him he shoots a Diffindo at Harry hitting his left shoulder. Harry cries but can't think too much as he is almost halfway to the werewolf.

Harry casts "Stupefy" and silently cast Expelliarmus after it. The werewolf uses "Protego" to block harry Stupefy and let it drop to cast back when his wands fly past Harry on the ground with ice sliding all the way to a few feet away from the cover of Kingsley and Jacob.

The werewolf thinks 'I still have my strength and my razor-sharp reflexes. Wait … it can't be …. yes it is Harry Potter. Now I have him, Greyback and the Dark Lord will reward me and I make Greyback proud. I will let the others leave as I will not kill Potter then if they do but they must leave that girl here. She probably a Veela as I felt the push against my mind but the werewolf protected me maybe I can ask for her as a reward and after I break her she can also earn me some money.'

The werewolf is too much in thought about what he considers a bright future when he sees Harry pocketing his wand. The werewolf wonders why he does when Harry moves his right arm behind his head and moves his arm back. The werewolf is surprised as Harry suddenly has a sword in his hand. Harry had the Sword of Gryffindor on his back. He had Tarpy fasten it when he got ready. The sword was disillusioned in his scabbard and the straps are hardened leather and have runes to prevent it from being cut by spells so it will always stay on where you have placed it.

Harry lands a few feet away from the werewolf while Jacob closes Kingsley's wound and when they see that the werewolf doesn't have his wand and focus on Harry they immediately go to Bill who had used his own good arm to crawl to Fleur to see if she is alright.

Jacob had barely been able to close the wounds and thinks he didn't even do a good job at that. He can't heal Bill shattered and burned arm. The burn isn't too bad as Fleur's bond with him helps him to be a bit resistant to fire (and burns). Jacob wakes Fleur who has blood coming out of her head and helps her up as she stumbles.

Kingsley helps Bill up he says "we need to be quick. Harry is distracting the werewolf. We must get Leanne and get out of here. Harry's orders."

Bill nods and Fleur dizzily nods. Jacob says "I think Fleur has a concussion."

Kingsley looks at Harry and says "it isn't dangerous for now. Let's get Leanne immediately."

While they approach the cage Harry has the sword of Gryffindor to fight against the werewolf and have both his hand on the sword grip. He starts slashing with his sword but the werewolf evades and even manages to hit Harry. Harry thinks 'hurry up I don't know how long I can keep this up. I can barely stand on my right leg and my left shoulder is aching in pain.'

Harry feels the girls supporting him and even hears Ginny between the voices. Harry focuses as he needs to do this for Katie, one of his wives. Harry has always lived with pain and that gives him the advantage as the werewolf thinks that Harry will soon collapse from all the pain. Harry suddenly sees what the werewolf does when he evades and notice his signs to know how he is planning to evade it. Harry's seeker reflex comes into play when he notices. He starts slashing again but now he manages to slash the werewolf's left arm.

The werewolf howls in pain and when he tries something different Harry somehow knows what to do. He uses the sword to block the werewolf even with the enhanced strength Harry can block him and after what feels like minutes but cannot be more than half a minute he managed to push him back as the basilisk venom is weakening the werewolf. Harry manages to move the sword with the block to turn the werewolf around. Harry slashes a large gash on his back. The werewolf turns around to attack Harry. However, the moment he turns around Harry pushes the Sword of Gryffindor through his heart.

The werewolf is wide-eyed before he dies. Harry sees no life in his eyes and his body goes limp. Harry put the sword back in the scabbard and grabs his wand. He is on the point of collapse of the blood loss and his broken leg as his adrenalin is decreasing. He sees that Leanne doesn't come out of the cage and actually tries to crawl to the back of the cage apparently afraid of the people she doesn't know. She may remember Fleur but Fleur is dizzy which can be also seen as being hit or under a confundus charm.

Suddenly Harry notices a movement to his side and sees that one of the Werewolves blasted to the Wall has woken up and he already has his wand pointed at the group as they have their back to the werewolf. Harry without thinking shoots a spell at the Werewolf. It is the spell Sirius told Harry about and he was explaining it until Hermione badgered Harry into learning for the OWL's. Sirius had the book sent to Harry if something happened to him. Harry got the book and spend the first few months of his sixth year training the spell in the room of requirement when it wasn't used by apparently Draco what he later found out.

Out of Harry's wand comes a fire that slashes at the werewolf before Harry moves his wand that the fire wraps around the werewolf's neck. The werewolf is shocked and when Harry pulls his wand back it chokes the werewolf so it doesn't make a sound. The fire is like a collar.

When Kingsley wants to levitate Harry to them to hope he can get Leanne out or they need to stun her. He sees the werewolf Harry fought lying dead and Harry has the fire around another werewolf's neck. He notices the wand dropped at the still alive werewolf's feet and knows Harry protected them. Kingsley also notices the spell Harry uses and most see it as a dark spell but not necessarily an evil spell.

Kingsley knows the spell. It is the fire whip spell. You need to have immense control over your magic. If you are strong enough you need to be able to control your magic and if you can control your magic if you don't have enough power you can also not control it. Kingsley is surprised at the control Harry has.

Kingsley thinks 'it seems Harry's block not only increase his power but also the control over his magic. I never saw somehow use that spell like this before.'

Kingsley also wonders if he can still cast and control the fire whip as Dumbledore didn't allow anyone to cast dark spells even if they are not evil. Dumbledore only allowed spells and curses that are in the Hogwarts curriculum and even was advised to not use Reducto's and Bombarada's against the Dark Eaters be it Reducto to hurt them or Bombarda on items when exploded can hurt Death Eater because of the exploding parts.

Harry yanks the wand where the fire is connected to the werewolf which makes the werewolf scream soundless in pain. The werewolf falls to his knees and Harry says "I have no choice."

He let the flame go and cast "Reducto" and the werewolf falls with a large wound on his upper body all the way to the heavily burned neck.

Harry feels himself get levitated. He lands next to Harry and Harry asks "Kingsley what are you still doing here?"

Kingsley says "Leanne doesn't trust us and what disturbs me more is that she doesn't want to leave HER cage. Her cage is what she says."

Harry frowns and says "alright then stun her we need to go."

Kingsley says "Harry while I agree it is the easiest way and I understand you did that with Katie, Fay and Penelope. We have a little bit of time now before Greyback arrives I suspect it is better if we don't stun her unless we got no choice. I think you can better talk to her she knows you best and in Fleur's state I can understand Leanne thinks Fleur is confounded."

Harry says "alright, you and Jacob check the werewolves I need them dead as they know too much. I think most are dead but we must be certain. After that grabs all the wands and looks for tracking charms especially on Leanne if it does dispel them and we take the wands with us maybe Ollivander can salvage the wands for the new wands or if they are his he knows at least who the werewolves were or at least who the wands belonged to."

Kingsley and Jacob nod before they are out of earshot he says "and after that dispel the ice is possible of break it."

Kingsley and Jacob nod. Harry moves to Leanne's cage when he collapses at the door of it as his adrenaline is now completely gone and he feels the wounds on his shoulder and the broken leg.

Harry pushes through the pain and sees Leanne at the back of the cage. He pockets his wand.

Harry says "Leanne it is alright. You need to get out of the cage so we can leave soon."

Leanne screams "NO I CAN'T GOT. THIS IS MY CAGE….. it is where I belong until I get turned."

Harry says "no you are not."

Leanne blinks twice and then starts sobbing. She says "go Harry leave me. I have submitted myself to them and I am broken now. I am of no importance. Please promise me you save Katie, Fay and Penny."

Harry says "if you are broken we can help you find yourself again if you want we can fix you back to the girl you were. Katie, Fay and Penny are saved. They wanted me to find you as they are afraid for you, especially Katie, now we have found you and can bring you back but you must get out of just this cage….. not your cage."

Leanne says "I am broken just leave me. If I am lucky Greyback kills me when he tries to turn me."

Harry says "no Leanne. Trust me."

Leanne says "I am not allowed to respond to Leanne anymore Greyback will give me a new name which will probably be bitch as I need to bear his offspring."

Harry says "no you are Leanne. If you submitted I don't mind. You did what was best to avoid pain. You are Leanne. Just give me your hand and we can leave. You can also see your friends and be safe around your friends."

Harry held out his hands. Leanne doesn't know what to do it takes almost 15 minutes before she grabs Harry's hand with both her hands as they have been tied together.

The moment she feels Harry's hand she feels a heat going through her body, a warm feeling. Leanne feels hope, a chance to heal, 'friendship' but also safety as long as she sees Harry close by.

Harry uses his strength to pull Leanne out of the cage. The moment she is out of the cage she tries to get back into the cage. Harry says "no Leanne you don't have to go back. We go to safety soon trust me."

Leanne stops struggling and says "yes Harry."

Harry reluctantly lets go of her hand to make sure she doesn't go back into the cage. When he does instead of rushing back into the cage she keeps standing. Harry grabs his wand and cut the ropes around Leanne's hands. Harry didn't suspect that the moment her arms are free she put her arms around him. Harry is taller so she put her arms around his chest. Harry is happy she does not hug him higher as he still has the bleeding wound on his shoulder.

Less than a minute later Kingsley and Jacob come back. Jacob says "I have all the wands in my pocket."

Kingsley says "all the werewolves are dead from the fight we didn't need to kill any afterwards."

Meanwhile, Bill has Fleur in his arm and Fleur is sitting next to him. She has Bill's arm around her but is still a bit dizzy.

Kingsley sees Leanne hugging Harry and he smiles before saying "really Harry?"

Harry says "No certainly not now and shut it."

Kingsley holds both hands up grimily as it still hurts the closed wound and says "alright. I don't mean anything by it."

Harry asks "maybe we should also take some of the supplies they have here and destroy the cage."

Kingsley says "that can be a good idea."

Harry calls for Dobby and Kreacher. When they pop in Harry asks "Dobby and Kreacher I want you to remove any tracking charm in the whole room Kingsley had missed and take everything except the bodies and cage to the manor. When you are done come back immediately."

It takes five minutes and multiple trips to take everything. Meanwhile, Harry says "excuse me, Leanne."

Leanne reluctantly let's go and Harry points his wand. He points at the cage and uses "Bombarda" and "Reducto" until the cage is nothing more than rubble on the ground having that in no way or shape does it looks like the cage it was before and can never be repaired.

When Dobby and Kreacher say they are done Harry says "alright Dobby and Kreacher remove the anti-portkey and anti-apparition charms. You couldn't block me right?"

Kreacher says "no Master Harry. If the person has Master Harry's blood with him and somehow Master Harry's magic then our wards cannot stop anything. Kreacher and Dobby could stop that but only if Master requests it."

Harry says "that is great as that means Remus should be at the manor now and being treated by Andi and Alice. Kingsley remove your wards."

Kingsley nods and about five minutes Kingsley says "they are down without any indication they have been ever here."

Harry says "great. Dobby take me, Leanne and Kingsley. Kreacher you take Jacob, Bill and Fleur back. We go to the manor. We need to leave now. Kreacher and Dobby let's go."

Dobby and Kreacher nod and with a pop the whole group disappear.

12th January 1998, Entrance Hall, Potter Manor

Harry immediately notices that the sun is starting to rise meaning it has been at least a few hours.

Leanna asks timidly "where are we?"

Harry says "we are at my ancestral manor which is probably one of the safest places in England if not the world and I don't mean 'save' as Hogwarts supposedly was."

Harry immediately senses his girls running toward him. He looks at the big stairs and just seconds later half of all the girls arrive and the other half appears at the side with the door to the ground floor of the library.

Katie, Fay and Penny scream "LEANNE THANK MERLIN."

They rush to her and hug her. Leanne wants them to let go but they don't notice. Harry says "Katie why don't you take Leanne with Fay and Penny to the hospital wing she needs to rest and I think she needs to talk to you."

He turns towards Hermione when he almost jumps back as Hermione stands just inches in front of him "Harry says hey Hermione. Moony is already here isn't he?"

Hermione says "yes he is here and is being treated by Andi. Tonks wasn't happy but she is calm now. Remus also wasn't happy you send him here after he got quite hurt but I think he understands and would not be angry anymore as you came back. Although he would bad you are hurt. What are your injuries?"

Harry asks "what do you mean injuries? I am fine."

Before anyone can react Daphne launches herself at Harry and says "don't be stupid Potter. We can all see you are hurt and with the stupid plan to go only with six people. You really are stupid Potter. How your wives are not mad at you I can't understand I thought Hermione was smart but I guess she isn't as she has fallen for someone as stupid as you just like your other wives stupid Potter.."

Harry's wives feel Harry's anger rise and drag Daphne off Harry. Luna runs to Harry and hugs him as she says "Dobby take us to Andi."

Before Harry can react he pops out with Luna still hugging him. Katie hears in her mind 'Katie take Leanne to Andi and take Kingsley with Bill and Fleur with you. We will take care of Daphne.'

Katie nods and starts gently leading Leanne to the hospital wing and asks Kingsley, Bill and Fleur to follow along. They follow along.

12th January 1998, hospital wing, first floor, Potter Manor

When they walk in they see that Harry is being treated by Andi while Alice and Isabel are finishing up at Remus. Harry wants to move but his injuries and Luna keep him in place.

Andi says "ah there you are I was wondering where you kept. Bill go lie on that bed. I put a bed for Fleur against it as I don't want an angry Veela in my hospital wing. Tolney can you look at Bill."

Tolney pop in and says "of course Miss Andi."

Andi says without looking "Alice can you continue on Harry so I can look with Tolney at Bill's wounds. Alice after that look at Fleur will you? Isabel, can you check Kingsley especially as your husband closed his wound according to Harry. I hope you do a better job on Kingsley Jacob when you closed the wound. Jacob no offence but I needed to open all Remus's wounds to clean and close them properly."

Jacob says "no offence taken Andi. I know I am not good at it but we had no other choice."

Andi says while doing the last thing for Harry before Alice will take over "well while it wasn't done properly it did help Remus. I don't know about the others yet. As Harry here didn't have his wound closed."

Harry says "we didn't rea…"

Andi looks sharply which reminds Harry how Madam Pomfrey will look if he was brought in after the first year especially when he tried to explain his injuries that it wasn't his fault.

Harry decided to not finish his sentence and looks at Luna who just has her serene smile what makes Harry's worry disappear is that his wives were mad at him but also decreased the anger he had at Daphne. The way Daphne accused him of being stupid and his plan was also, but that rubbed Harry the wrong way the most is that Daphne called Hermione and his other wives are stupid for loving him which also makes him doubt himself again if he even deserves love.

Harry doesn't know that all the wives are mad at Daphne. They have finally gotten Harry to love them and started to decrease Dursley's upbringing and effect on Harry and now Daphne says this.

Alice stands next to Harry and says "I will look at Fleur after Harry."

Andi nods and walks to Bill where Tolney is eagerly waiting. Even though she has medical experience with Lily she will not work on her own unless it was asked of her what this time it was not.

Andi cast a diagnostic spell and asks Tolney to get some potions and the newly made essence of dittany. The essence of Dittany Hermione had left when they came here was used on Harry after the assassin's attack and the wound today and on Remus. Andi, fortunately, had made new when she got the ingredients Remus brought back including two cauldrons. She had planned to get new ones when Tom took over so she didn't have time yet so Dan and Jacob's shopping was a god sent.

After half an hour everyone but Harry and Bill was completely healed or at least treated. Andi had left before she comes back.

Andi says "Bill and Harry you need to drink this. Bill your whole arm was shattered and needed to remove the bones. Harry your upper leg I could set and will probably be healed later today. Your lower leg was almost shattered as you used it while you shouldn't have. The quickest way was to also remove the bones and…."

Andi gave a smile at Harry as she says "I think you are familiar with it Harry as the sleep while being painful."

Harry suddenly has a grimace on his face and feels nauseous as he says "please don't say it is Skele-grow."

Andi says "I could lie but it is still Skele-grow."

Harry says "I guess there is no other way?"

Andi shakes her head and says "no as bones don't grow back at a rate that you can ever walk again if you don't use it."

Harry says "fine."

Andi gives both Harry and Bill a couple of sips before giving them just like the others a dreamless sleep potion although Andi first gave Harry a nourishment potion. Still, I may not work right away as Harry didn't have his large breakfast. Andi also gave one dreamless sleep potion to Jacob although he wasn't injured he was tired. Katie, Fay and Penny stay with Leanne who is also getting to sleep by the potion.

12th January 1998, wives bedroom, Potter Manor

Harry's wives beside Luna and Katie had dragged Daphne to the wives' bedroom. Hermione is beyond mad, Susan would attack Daphne if Harry didn't mind what she knows he does, Astoria glares at her sister and won't back down no matter what. Some others also were in the wives' bedroom like Tracey, Su, Gabby (barely controlling her Veela) and the Patil twins. All the other girls were waiting outside except Fay and Penny.

If you look at the girls outside it is the first time that the Carrow twins are without the other Slytherin with them. They are afraid but as soon as the door closed they are part of the group as the group is wondering what would happen to Daphne. They talk with the Carrow twins which made Flora and Hestia very happy and at ease even without the Slytherins at their side.

Most of the group outside the door think that she will be screamed at but relatively uninjured. They think the wives would want to hex and jinx Daphne but Harry probably wouldn't like that no matter what although the wives were unbelievable mad. They have never had seen Hermione and Susan that mad while Hermione has been made before (mostly at Ron) but Susan nobody had ever seen her this mad, for her to be mad now must mean Daphne really screwed up. The Carrow twins also think so as this was the first time Astoria looks mad enough that it doesn't matter she is mad at her sister she always adored and tried to be like her.

Inside the room, Daphne is getting nervous. She didn't know why she did it at least she has no other explanation than she was afraid for his safety and is jealous the others slept in his bed but she can only dream of what it will be like. She had really no idea why what she said about his wives where her little sister is one from.

She knows the wives are mad at her and she can't really blame them but that will not make it better. She thought she was finally able to think and use Harry instead of Potter. She even thought that she was slowly becoming the real her and not like some called her the ice-queen, her cold persona was slowly being removed by Harry and how nice the other girls were not trying to find a weakness to exploit or anything else Slytherin(s) (girls) will do.

Daphne is wondering why they were waiting. Suddenly they look at each other before all nod. Daphne knows someone has said something in their mind and they probably replied.

Hermione says "Gabby we allow you to be here but keep your Veela under control."

Gabby almost growls before she says "I will but she must watch her words."

Gabby points at Daphne and Daphne knows that she needs to watch her words or Gabby will really attack her and probably only Harry can calm her down but he is in the hospital wing now she hopes to rest to heal. She trusts Andi (mostly because Harry does) and from what she has seen so far Andi is a good mediwitch. She is actually thinking that maybe Andi can see if Harry's potion-making skills are good for a NEWT or if he is just lucky.

Daphne immediately mentally shakes her head. No, I mustn't do this. Harry is smarter than he pretends. Harry is probably good enough Snape was the one who always badgered him and Harry's (new) best friend Neville. I will not think as Snape did especially as I start to know the real Harry and he is my future husband, my Lord Greengrass. Father seems to like Harry.

'Maybe I can ask Ragnok if Father agrees to get the Greengrass Heir ring as I have the Heiress ring although I never wear it. As it is seen they know I have a betrothed as I am not last of the line like Susan as she wore her Heiress ring and my father advised me to not wear it until Harry knows and now he knows although I don't need to tell Harry he is my betroth' Daphne thinks.

Daphne gets out of her thoughts when Hermione says "then we can begin."

The wives inside the room decided that Hermione will do the talking as she is seen as the head wife although Hermione doesn't want to as it was already many times discussed Hermione didn't disagree this time as she wants to scream at Daphne for hurting Harry.

Hermione's eyes turn sharp and stare at Daphne. She asks "how could you do that Daphne? How could you say those things to Harry? How can you question our love for him or his love for us?"

Daphne looks shocked. Hermione is really mad but still, the question caught her off guard. Daphne thought they would scream at her and maybe even cast some minor curses.

Daphne decides to respond and asks "how can you not? What Potter did was stupid going only with six people, if he went with more they could have overwhelmed the werewolves. Even my father who is no fighter goes with him? Are you mad he forbids you from going?"

Hermione says "it is Harry, not Potter Daphne. You better remember that. Also why I didn't go is between him and me …. And maybe his wives what you are not if ever."

Daphne asks "what do you mean?"

Hermione says "you are his betroth but if you keep acting like this he will only marry because he has to not because he wants to. Then if he has given you children or at least a male for the Greengrass line it would be a miracle if you ever see him again. He will never really love you he does us and we do him if you keep this up. We know you were called the Ice-Queen from Slytherin but if you don't warm up to Harry you will still be it in his eyes."

"Even your sister Astoria who was the Ice-Princess has warmed up to Harry and her real love gave them a soulbond. You can have it too but not like this. If you want the chance for having what we have soulbond or at least close and want the answer to why I didn't go and why I didn't mind you better apologize to Harry after he wakes up as Luna is with him now. And you can better show him that he deserves the love that you just said he didn't."

"If you do not I will make sure he removes you from the manor. You will still be under the wards but in one of the guesthouses on the property but you will be banned from the manor. If Harry still suffers from your words after the war until you get pregnant you can stay on the property but after that I want you gone. I don't want Harry to relapse back to what his relatives did to him and what he still has in his mind."

"Daphne, what do you have to say for yourself? Why did you say it? Did you lie about loving Harry or did you just want to hurt him as a bonus?"

Daphne looks shocked and without control, she starts saying "I love Po….. Harry with all my heart but I could never use Harry by his name only Potter. I heard it for six years. I try to say Harry but every time I say Potter on instinct as if I said Harry in the Slytherin Common Room I am afraid of what could have happened."

"I love Harry and I try to show it but somehow every time others come especially you, his wives, in Gabby's situation her Veela mate or like the Patil's twins that are defiantly interested in Harry I can most of the times not control to switch into my Ice-Queen persona. I think I try to scare you away or something although I know I can't I still try."

"If you ask why I did it maybe because I am jealous and think if I make you question your love I can have him or maybe because I never admit it again but I feel threatened by the love you show Harry and I can never do that or at least I think I am not capable of showing love to anyone anymore especially Harry, not because I don't love him but because I taught myself to not show emotions and manage to bury them. I don't want to lose him be it by his stupid action that he gets hurt you must admit it is. It is also my fear that I can't show Harry the love I know I have."

Susan says "Harry is a typical Gryffindor but with Hermione and Luna's stories Harry always comes with a plan when needed and it is maybe not the best plan but an adequate plan nonetheless. All survived beside Sirius Black but that wasn't Harry's fault just like Dumbledore wasn't."

Hermione nods and says "Harry may act rash like a real Gryffindor that you may find a bad thing I know that Harry would be very proud of himself. I agree he does some crazy arse stupid things like when he saved Luna, Katie, Fay and Penny just like today to save Leanne but he does it with the best intentions and even though he is hurt he always comes back alive and believe me I will talk to him about it but that doesn't mean we love him less or what you claim we don't love him anymore. Yes, we don't want to lose him but I know it will kill Harry on the inside if he could help someone, especially someone close to someone he loves as Katie is his wife he loves and Leanne is her best friend since childhood and he does nothing."

Astoria says hotly "you need to make a decision Daphne. Open your heart and trust Harry to cherish your love with a chance on a soulbond maybe sooner than later or keep your mask up and move to one of the houses on the property. Don't forget if you get a soulbond Harry will not reject you from his bed and if you want I can go with you to know that I am alright with it and convince him it is alright. Harry will be a lucky guy with all his wives including the Greengrass sisters right big sis?"

Daphne can't suppress a smile and says "yes he is but I think he is happy with all the beautiful girls he has as his wives."

Daphne can't suppress a little jab at the end as she says "and those that will also become that" while she looks at the Patil Twins and give Tracey a quick wink showing her that Daphne knows about Tracey feels about Harry.

Tracey wants to wait until after Daphne got her chance as Daphne is betrothed Tracey's marriage contract was after Daphne's although her father did try with different houses all Death Eater aligned as they were seen as dark aligned so light houses were out of the question and most neutral were afraid to have a marriage contract with house Davis as they thought they pretend to be neutral but is actually dark. Her father tried to betroth from her youth before Daphne was approached by the Death Eater houses. Tracey's father is no Death Eater himself as Tracey is a half-blood as his wife is a muggle and even though Tracey is the heiress of House Davis, no (dark) House was interested at least not as a wife but as the second wife or mistress enough offers where but her father finds that below his house and his daughter's status as even though marrying a muggleborn his house is still an ancient house with enough money to live comfortably with a little luxury.

Daphne looks back at Hermione and says "I need to th…."

Hermione interrupts her and says "if you need to think about I know enough and you don't really love Harry or at least don't want to try and show Harry your love for him. It is I do or do not Daphne. You need to choose now."

Daphne starts considering what she needs to do. Hermione, Susan and Astoria see that Astoria says "I think we know enough. I will let Harry know after he is better so he can look at the contract and get the needed items to annul the marriage contract."

Astoria looks at Hermione and says "I think there are two ways we just need to see the contract between Harry's parents and mine. My contract was from house Black and has no outs but I think Daphne's from House Potter has even more than one.

Astoria looks to Daphne and says "I guess you will never find out how good it is to sleep with Harry next to you and when he makes love to you. I think it will feel out of this world."

Daphne says "no I know I want to show Harry, my love. I love him and I want to show it to him ….. please help me to show him."

Daphne immediately blushes while Astoria and Tracey look shocked. Daphne never asked for help even if she couldn't do anything she tries to do it herself, she will do it herself. They think 'it seems Harry's love needs to get out and Harry is so important to her.'

Hermione looks at Astoria. Astoria thinks 'she speaks the truth. She never asked for help even if she couldn't do it she will still try. She is asking for help for her to do that she really loves Harry and wants him to know and importantly somehow show.'

Su says "if you help her please help me too. I have no idea as we never really talked with each other Harry and I."

Hermione says "fine Daphne, Astoria says you really do love Harry so we will think of something. Su we can help you too although you have it easier than Daphne. It will take some days to think of something alright?"

Daphne and Su nod. Hermione says sharply "Daphne I won't accept another one of those outbursts again especially as long as you are not married to Harry or have a soulbond. But let me make this clear never ever question my love for Harry."

Susan and Astoria say at the same time "or our love."

Hermione says "you will not like the outcome. If you have another outburst like that even if you don't question our love I don't care if you vow that you love Harry I will not forgive you and I think Harry is the same. This is your last chance remember that. If you hurt Harry again, especially by what you said I will hex you into oblivion as do the other girls. If you think I get mad you wouldn't want to see Luna or Ginny when they are mad especially if it is for something you did to Harry. When Ginny gets here I will make sure she will not hex you but you got one chance."

Daphne says "I know and thank you Hermione I appreciate not sending Ginny on me. What is keeping Luna anyway?"

Astoria says "Luna is lying with Harry in the hospital wing. She is the reason Harry isn't here or somewhere where we can't find him because of your words. Luna is showing him the love he deserves what you said he didn't."

Daphne gets ashamed of herself. Hermione breaks the tension and says "we are done. I am going to the library. Daphne, I think it is better if I don't see you for a bit. One more thing even if you marry Harry or get a soulbond maybe both I still don't want you to have the same outbursts. You can get mad at Harry but never go as far as you did now I hope you understand or else the same applies as before."

Daphne nods and Hermione opens the door to see all the girls staring at her. Hermione ignores them and walks to the library. A few follow her but most keep waiting. The girls inside start to leave and each go their own way. Finally, Daphne comes out uninjured or anything else. The girls immediately question her.

All Daphne says is "we talked about it and came to an understanding. I also gave them a possible cause for my outburst. Now I am going to take a nap I desperately need to also think of a way to apologize to Harry."

The girls ask her more questions but she doesn't answer them and make a way to her shared (Slytherin) bedroom.

12th January 1998, hospital wing, first floor, Potter Manor

Harry wakes up feeling incredibly hungry. He sees a blond blur lying on his chest and feels it is Luna. He also smells her hair and that is also Luna.

Luna whispers in his ear "how are you feeling Harry? I hope you feel good?"

Harry says " I feel much better now especially with you here."

Harry wonders if he deserves love when Daphne's words come back to his mind. Harry wants to get up but he is very hungry and feels a bit weak. The nourishment potion used everything they could find to work. It makes Harry feel weak as he didn't have breakfast or lunch that he needs for nourishment to use. Luna with both her hands and head on his chest keep him down.

Harry looks into Luna's eyes but before he could say or think anything she starts snogging Harry and Harry's mind go blank by the passion Luna put into the snog. Luna keeps snogging when her mind also becomes blank. She was able to send one thought before she became unable by the passion Harry returns to her own.

Harry has pulled Luna on top of him so she is straddling him all to hold her tighter to him.

A few minutes later a couple of people walk through the open doorway as the door hasn't been closed. Andi thought it will be better for Leanne if she woke up and panics she can get out. Harry and Luna however don't notice the low voices and the sound of footsteps.

One of the voices says "I don't know she doesn't respond but I can also not hear her right now."

The screen opens and Hermione says "I should have known that is why she didn't respond Susan and we couldn't hear her."

Astoria asks "should we let them know we are here?"

Hermione says "yes let's do that. We need to let Harry know we love him but are mad at him for getting hurt again. I think we also all want to know what he did when he let us know he was planning something dangerous we would not agree with."

Hermione and Susan stand next to Harry's bed. Astoria takes the other side. Harry and Luna still don't notice. Hermione, Susan and Astoria start screaming in their mind but make sure that Katie who is still with Leanne across from Harry's bed behind a screen doesn't hear them. It seems Harry and Luna also don't as they just keep going.

Hermione thinks 'as that doesn't work let's talk to them before, we need to pull them apart or in the last case hex them.'

Susan and Astoria nod. Hermione says "Harry could you let Luna of you so we can talk?"

When Harry and Luna don't stop. Hermione touches Harry's cheek while Susan and Astoria gently pull Harry's hands-off Luna's back. When Hermione sees Harry's arms are not holding Luna anymore she uses her free hand to gently stop Luna from kissing Harry. When Luna feels the push she backs away. Harry wants to follow but Hermione's hand on his cheek stops him Harry wants to look at who hand it is not because they handhold him down.

Harry sees Hermione who has a smug smile and he sees why. Luna is straddling him but now sits up still straddling him but not snogging him.

Harry says "hey girls. I was wondering when you would come here."

The others say "hey Harry" before all three give him a large kiss. They like kissing him or if possible snogging him. They held the kiss much longer and deeper this time for the chance Luna haven't shown Harry enough that what Daphne said wasn't true as they felt it hurt Harry and made him question love again. That is also the reason Hermione, Susan and Astoria were extra mad and waited until Harry fell asleep before they started talking with Daphne, also screaming at her to let her know what she did wrong, that she needs to warm up at Harry and not have an outburst like that again as Harry is still not emotional stable because of the Dursley's.

Andi sees steps out of one of the screens and sees that Harry's screen is not fully closed while she is sure she did. Andi vows that if Harry left when she was preoccupied with checking on Kingsley's wounds she would curse him and set his wives loose on him. Just as she wants to look she hears the girls say "hey Harry" and as they didn't continue Andi thinks they are kissing. She smiles as she back away to the office that is at the end of the hospital wing without the girls noticing.

Meanwhile, Leanne did also woke up. Katie, Fay and Penelope have stayed with her the whole time. Leanne wakes up and when sees Katie, Fay and Penny and that she is not back in her cage.

She asks "Katie, Fay, Penny is it true? Am I really free? I don't need to go back in my cage?"

Katie, Fay and Penelope see Leanne has woken up and Katie says "It is all true Leanne. Harry and some others have saved you before Greyback could turn you into a werewolf and mate with you to claim and dominate you."

Leanne starts crying. Katie, Fay and Penelope hug Leanne and Katie says "sorry I said it like that but I want to make sure you understand what would have happened if Harry some others didn't save you."

Leanne slowly stops crying but continues sobbing and asks "but what about Fleur Delacour she looked confounded only bad people would only use the Confundus charm and keep the target like that to do bad things."

Penelope says "I think you misunderstand or didn't see it. Fleur wasn't confounded. She was dizzy but that was because she hit the wall and had a concussion."

Leanne says "really? That can explain it. What happened to those werewolves. I know they were they always talked about Greyback as their creator and that they couldn't wait until he turned me too."

Katie and Fay say "they are dead. All six."

Leanne asks "really?"

When Katie nods she starts crying again. Katie, Fay and Penelope hug her again. Katie, Fay and Penny hear Leanne almost whisper "thank you, thank you" all the time. They know that it is tears of happiness.

It went on for quite a while. Katie heard the girls talking with Harry in her mind but didn't talk with them as Leanne needs her now. Katie, of course, can think about what she wants to say but sometimes she forgets all about her surroundings and that can't happen with Leanne needing her.

Susan leaves Harry's side and walks to Leanne as fellow Hufflepuff. When Leanne sees Susan completely unhurt or anything else Leanne gets the first real feeling that everything is alright and that she isn't dreaming and slowly will get back to her real self, not the broken girl who was kept in a cage for the better part of the last two week's fearing every minute what would happen next.

Susan asks "Leanne are you alright after what you endured?"

Leanne asks "did anyone tell you?"

Susan says "no but I can guess as these werewolves are from Greyback's pack so they also follow Tom or as you know him as you-know-who. I don't know what they did to you. The now-dead werewolves couldn't tell us but from what I see from Harry's memories and thinking I can guess it wasn't nice. You can tell us if you want to but I can understand it will be hard."

Leanne asks while still sobbing "see from Harry's memories? How?"

Katie says "that is for another time, Leanne. You just need to rest. As I look at you I think you barely got any food."

Leanne says "I only got a little once a day if I did something…."

Leanne starts crying again and Susan, Fay, Penelope and Katie all hug her which first makes her want to get out of it until they both whisper "it is alright Leanne. You are saved and those bastards are dead."

Leanne finally stops crying and Susan, Fay, Penny and Katie both all that Leanne had fallen asleep. It was a short but heavy emotional roller coaster for Leanne as she is also reminded of some of the worst things that have happened during her capture.

On Harry's side, Harry asks "is Moony alright? And what about the full moon tonight?"

Luna says "everything is fine Harry. Remus is probably all better and goes to where he has planned tonight."

Harry says "while it calms to hear you say that Luna I need to know for sure as I don't want anyone hurt. He may use the wolfsbane potion but with all of us here his instinct may take over or he may attack Grawp. Also if he infects someone he will break with guilt as he is also afraid his son will be a werewolf."

Hermione says nothing but looks at Astoria. Astoria nods. She leaves but comes back within two minutes. She says "Remus isn't in his bed anymore."

Harry says "Tarpy."

Tarpy pops in and asks what he can do for Master Harry. Harry asks to find Remus.

Tarpy pops out and quickly returns. Tarpy says "Mister Moon is with Miss Dora in Mister Moon and Miss Dora's bedroom."

Harry says "bring him he…."

Hermione interrupts Harry and says "thank you, Tarpy. Can you ask Remus when he leaves the room that before he leaves he will at least let us know? I think you can better let him and Dora be for the moment. If the sun is setting and they still haven't left the room then you can go but for now, if you do not I think that is better."

Tarpy says "as you wish Lady Hermione."

Harry asks "why not Hermione?"

Hermione says out loud "Harry you don't want Dora mad. What if they were enjoying each other's company or they were …. intimate with each other."

Harry seems confused about what Hermione means what makes Hermione snap as she says "I mean sex, Harry. What if Tarpy pops in when they were having sex and he pops Remus here. Dora will be furious again as she isn't any more after we calmed her down when Remus was brought here, by your Portkey, injured. If she is furious she will probably have high blood pressure and that is bad for the baby."

Harry says "oh …. that may be a good call."

Hermione to not stay mad and says "I will get Andi to look you over to see if everything is alright."

When Hermione walks out Susan walks in. The wives don't say anything but he can see that Susan, Astoria and Luna are talking with each other maybe even with Hermione and Katie and who knows maybe Ginny. When Harry tries to know what they are talking about he gets blocked.

Luna says "no Harry you cannot listen in or you won't get kisses anymore."

Harry immediately stops trying to listen in. As a reward, Luna gives Harry and nice deep and long kiss while she is still talking in her mind Harry thinks.

A few minutes later Hermione and Andi appear. Harry didn't know if they talked to Hermione but Hermione looks much calmer than when she left.

Andi says "well Harry let's see if your bones have grown back, if you are well-rested and if the wound has healed well."

Luna gets off Harry while Andi cast a few spells, asks to move his right leg and lifts up his shirt to look at the wound on his left shoulder. Andi says "it looks good Harry. I think you are free to go but take it easy with any strenuous and vigorous physical ….. exercise that includes with your wives….."

Hermione, Susan, Astoria and Luna interrupt Andi and say as one "we don't do that" Luna adds "yet" and Susan adds "unfortunately" both shooting a look at Hermione.

Andi smiles and says "still worth mentioning it. Harry don't let me see you in the hospital wing again young man or I will let your wives take care of you and no not the good kind of taking care of you."

Hermione says "well Andi if Harry is healed enough we were just planning on saying something."

Andi has an idea what and says "well don't let me stop you after you are done with him and didn't hurt him he can leave the hospital wing. Oh yes please don't try to wake Bill. Fleur and Leanne if they are still asleep."

Hermione nods when Susan says "Leanne had woken up but she fell asleep again. Katie, Fay and Penny stay with her for now."

Andi says "then I will leave you to it. Oh yes, Harry, I think you should have a very large dinner as you haven't had breakfast or lunch and your nourishment potion need food to work. I think the nourishment potion from this morning used every ounce of food it could find inside your body."

As soon as Andi leaves the screen Harry sees his wives' faces except for Luna who still has a smile and screams "Andi don't leave me here with them. I think I am still not well."

Luna climbs on the bed and Harry again. She straddles him to make sure Harry will hear what they have to say. She says innocently "we will not hurt you Harry and remember we still love you, love. But you need to hear this."

Harry sighs and suddenly has an idea that will help him. Harry focus and sends all the love he has for his wives to them. He sees his wives getting a red face and thinks 'if I get them to feel nice maybe they will let me off the hook or at least will be gentler.'

Luna, Astoria and Susan need to take heavy breaths, especially Luna to try and control herself. Hermione groans and says "nice try that is not going to work now stop or I will be even madder at you although it is only us that would see what is alright but not now."

Harry stops and tries to give a sly smile. The girls feel their knees go weak from that smile but Harry doesn't know that.

Harry says "I just want to show I love you."

Susan says "we love you too but we are not letting you off the hook."

Harry says "I just didn't want you to get hurt."

Astoria says "we know Harry and I understand you didn't take me but you could have asked some of the other adults to help you like Fleur and Gabby's parents, Hagrid or maybe bring Andi and mom with you to heal you there."

Harry says "maybe but I didn't want to take a risk if Greyback was there or encounter us and call Death Eater reinforcements. I was already considering Fleur but I needed her also as I know she is quite good as she was Beauxbatons champion and she will probably force me to go with us as Bill was also going."

Hermione's eyes turn sharp and start "Harry what did we tell you about doing something crazy arse stunt again."

Harry says "I know but technically I didn't as I did bring others with me and didn't go alone. Also, you knew what I was going to do and when we got there Remus with his senses will go first as I thought he can smell them and knows when we get into their senses. And I worked we could surprise them when Remus acted being one of them."

Harry kept explaining and slowly was decreasing the wives except for Luna's anger as she wasn't mad, to begin with.

Hermione asks "alright then I want to know what you were planning when you said you had no other choice and knew where were going to be mad at you."

Harry says "uuuhhhhh well …. I kinda asked Kingsley to use Expluso on me to shoot me towards the last werewolf who Kingsley thought was one of Greyback's beta's as he was a good fighter. I used the sword of Gryffindor to fight against him."

Hermione, Astoria and Susan look shocked while Luna lies with her head on Harry's chest again.

Hermione says suddenly "are you crazy? It was a werewolf he could have seriously hurt you with his enhanced senses and you were already injured with a broken leg and heavily bleeding on your left shoulder that was probably also hindering your movements and moving your left arm."

Harry says "I didn't plan to win. I just wanted to buy the others time to get Leanne out. But I noticed a sign on how he will avoid the sword and manage to slash his arm and then block an attack from him. The basilisk venom started to weaken the werewolf and I managed to turn him around to slash his back. When he turned back I stabbed the sword right through his heart."

Hermione, Susan and Astoria look shocked as they also see Harry's memories when he retold the story. When he stops Hermione, Susan and Astoria kiss Harry with a deep long kiss before Luna does the same while she is still straddling him.

Luna gets off Harry and when she stands next to the bed says "come on Harry I think Wissy will be more than happy to make you some snacks before dinner."

Harry gets out of bed and walks with Hermione, Astoria, Susan and Luna to the kitchen. Hermione says when they are in the entrance hall "we also need to consider what we do with the supplies Dobby and Kreacher brought from the cave at your request."

Harry nods as do Astoria, Susan and Luna before entering the kitchen.

Let's end here for now. In the next chapter, we see Daphne and Isabel talk about what Daphne had said. She needs her mother's support and helps but how will Isabel respond to Daphne's outburst. Also in the next chapter, we see someone most readers has been asking for. Also, we will see the basilisk carcass in all its glory. And more.

Please Read and Review although PMs are also appreciated.
