"The coast is clear now, it's just me in here Harry." Snape said, I opened my eyes and saw Snape was knelt in front of me
"So, what do we do now?" he sighed
"Well, school procedure states, I'm to take you up to the hospital wing, and inform your closest family, who would be Black and Lupin."
"I can't do that to them."
"You won't, I'm going to Floo them now to inform them what happened and how we`ll proceed."
"Okay, do I need to go up to the hospital wing now?" He shakes his head and stands to his feet
"No, we'll go inform your dogfathers then we'll go." I nodded and rise to my feet. Snape stalks from the potions cupboard and I follow him, through the classroom and into his office "Do you know where they are staying?" Snape asks me. I nod and take a handful of Floo power
"Black Manor! Forks Washington!" I threw the powder into the fireplace, making it light up green before Sirius' Face appears, Snape and I both kneel down to talk to him
"What's going on pup, Snape?" Sirius asked
"Your Godson is now officially dead in Magical Britain." Snape stated, I sighed
"What?" Sirius asked confused
"What he means is that Hogwarts staff and students now believe that I'm dead due to Ronald Weasley creating a deadly gas and trapping me in the potions cupboard."
"But it didn't affect you?" Sirius asked worriedly, I shook my head
"No, I don't need to breath anymore."
"But this was his one chance of escaping England and coming to you in America, you know what Hogwarts policy stated about deceased students Black." Snape said
"Yeah, a teacher takes the deceased student up to the hospital wing and informs the closest family, the family come to mourn some, and demand answers as to how it happened, then the family can take the child with them to bury as they please." Sirius explained and Snape nods
"Exactly, so that's what I'm going to do, I'm going to float a very still Potter up to the hospital wing who will remain still until you take him with you, hopefully you two can play your parts." Snape said looking at Sirius
"I'll inform Remus and wait on your Floo from the hospital wing." Sirius said
"Good."
"See you soon pup." Sirius said and pulled his head out of the fireplace ending the connection. Snape turned to face me. I laid down flat on the floor, still, unmoving, unbreathing
"Ready?" Snape asked
"Yeah, just please don't crash me into anything please?" he chuckled
"I'll try not to." I huff and roll my eyes before closing them "Wingardium Leviosa." I felt myself rise off the floor and move through the air as Snape began his journey to the hospital wing. I could hear students whispering, sobbing and outright crying.
"Can't believe he`s gone."
"He died our hero."
"He didn't deserve to die, after everything that he did for us, hadn't he sacrificed enough?" Was that Neville? Was he standing up for him?
"How did this happen?"
"Weasley locked him in the potions cupboard with a deadly gas he created knocking all of Potter ingredients to the floor." That`s where Draco got to, I'm sure Snape will fill him in soon enough. Eventually we made it to the hospital wing.
"Oh, the poor dear, come Severus, set him down on this bed." Madam Pomfrey greeted
"Of Course, Poppy, it was his bed after all." Snape said as I was set down on one of the hospital beds
"I told that boy I would have a plaque made for this bed, for all the times he had ended up in here, I never thought he would end up in here like this Severus."
"I know Poppy, it's a shock to us all, but he wouldn't have wanted me to open the door to let him out if it meant everyone else dying."
"You're right Severus, this boy was always trying to save everyone, even when it wasn't his job to."
"Indeed."
"Now, I think it's high time I got him his plaque, don't you?"
"Harry J Potter, Beloved by all, He saved the world a lot… I think it just right Poppy, now I need to go inform Black and Lupin."
"Oh, right, yes you go do that Severus." I heard a set of footsteps moving away from the bed. I inwardly smirked at the plaque that Madam Pomfrey had made, I hope Sirius asks for a copy of it. "Oh Harry, you didn't deserve this, not at all, not after everything you've done for this world, I'm so sorry." I heard a set of footsteps approaching again
"They'll be through momentarily Poppy." Snape said as his footsteps came to a stop, suddenly I heard a fireplace go, then two sets of rushing footsteps and then
"`Arry! `Arry!" I heard Teddy shout out
"Oh Teddy-bear." Remus sighed sadly and I heard footsteps move closer
"`Arry?"
"How did this happen?" Sirius hissed and a hand touched my own
"He's so cold Padfoot." Remus commented
"`Arry?" suddenly a weight was placed on my chest, that moved slightly "`Arry?" a hand was placed against my face, and then it was gone and weight curled up on my chest
"How could you let this happen Snape?!" Sirius yelled
"I didn't let anything happen Black, calm down and I will explain what happened." Snape hissed
"How can you expect me to calm down? My godson is laying dead on that bed."
"Siri, please, I need to know." Remus begged
"Alright, alright, Snape please tell us how this happened." Sirius said as he had calmed down.
"Potter was collecting his potion ingredients for his task, and Mr Weasley went in after him and accused him of being dark and knocked his ingredients from his hands to the floor and Weasley added another ingredient that he has stolen from my private stores, it created a deadly gas, Weasley locked Potter inside."
"And if you had opened the door the gas would have been released into the school, killing everyone." Remus added
"And Harry wouldn't have wanted that, so you kept the door closed." Sirius finished
"Exactly." Snape added
"Oh Harry." Remus sighed
"I do like the Plaque Poppy." Sirius commented
"I thought it was a nice touch to his bed." Madam Pomfrey responded
"Do you think I could get a copy to take with us?" Sirius asked
"Of course, dear boy."
"Thank you, Poppy."
"Perhaps it's time to take Harry home Siri." Remus suggested
"Yeah, I think so too."
"You best leave now; the headmaster is on his way." Snape commented
"Wingardium Leviosa." Sirius said
"Come here Teddy." Remus said and the weight from my chest was gone as I was lifted into the air again and guided somewhere "I'll go through first to guide him through when you send him."
"Alright, off you go then."
"Black Manor, Forks Washington." Remus yelled and I heard the fireplace go
"Thank you, Snape, Keep in touch."
"If I must." Snape responded, then I was pushed through the fire place and I rolled out of the Floo to the floor of Black Manor
"Never again will I use the floo immobile." Remus chuckled as I got to my feet and the floo went off behind me, Sirius stepped through
"Here pup, you're very own plaque from Poppy Pomfrey." Sirius chuckled handing it over to me.
