"Poppy, come on I'm fine, it's nothing really!" I protest trying to get up but wincing as I did so. "Nonesense Miss Speare, your bleeding from your head and you have two cracked ribs, that m'dear is not nothing. She says firmly pushing me back down,"Now rest, you'll be out of here soon." "Not soon enough." I grumble sinking lowering into the bed. Charlie is gonna kill me...and Ian is too...oh god I don't even wanna think about Sirius and Rem... I bite my lip, wondering how'd they'd all react when they found out I was in the hospital wing, They're not gonna be happy, I can tell you that...

I run up to the hospital wing, accidently knocking a first year flying and stopping to help them up, then carrying on running, skidding to a hault in the middle of the room, spotting her and storming over, "Maddie! What the hell happened!?"

I run into the hospital wing behind Charlie, stopping next to him, "Yeah, what he said."

I walk quickly into the hospital wing, hesitating at the sight of Owens and Lupin, but ignoring them, "Maddie, are you alright? What happened?"

"What are you doing here, Hunt?" I growl, drawing my wand.

"What the fuck do you think?" I draw my own wand, "Just try it Owens."

"Don't tempt me." I reply scathingly, then nod at Maddie. "One of your mates do this, eh?"

"If they did I'm sure you'd bring me down for mere association." I snap back.

"Exactly what I said. Work it out, Owens. I know that's hard for you but give it a minute and you'll get the general idea."

"Ha, funny. Is that the famous death eater wit I've been hearing about?"

"Well that hurt," I say sarcastically, "How do you come up with these?"

"Oh yeah, sorry. I forgot you're proud of what you are. Sick twisted fuck."

"Fine," I mutter, not taking my eyes off Hunt, wand still drawn.

"Jesus..Christ." I mutter putting a hand to my head,"Enough, both of you, wands down." I order.

Still glaring at Hunt I pocket my wand again, before turning back to Maddie, still on edge, "What happened?" I ask with forced calm.

"Fuck off," I say incredulously, "Of course not. What happened?"

"Nothing, I'm fine, baby's fine it's no big deal." I say trying to calm him down,"Charlie it's nothing to get worked up about." I look over at Remus and Ian, giving them both a small smile,"I'm fine, just a little cut up is all."

"Who did it?" I ask.

"What would give you any impression a person did this? It could have been Peeves, bloody ghost has been out to get me for years, or I could have fallen down the stairs...again. You all know how clumsy I am."

"Come on Charlie, don't do that." I beg.

"Don't do this then. Come on, Maddie, tell me. I need to know who did this."

"Charlie, I'm fine. Baby's fine, isn't that all that matters?"

I almost flinch at the mention of the baby but manage not to, "No it's not all that matters. What if they come after you again? You expect," I nod across the room at Hunt, "him to protect you? They're mates of his, the people that are after you. I need to know who did this so I can make sure they don't come near you again."

"It wasn't Logan." I mutter,"It wasn't Payne and it wasn't Gin or whatever the fuck he wants to be called. Charlie, I know your mad, and you scared for me, you all are, but please, Charlie, don't do this to me."

"Well what are we supposed to do? Just say everything's okay? You know, all of this fine, while whoever and all the other fucking madmen are out plotting to come back and try again? And then what if one of these days they do manage? Then what? What if the b-...kid is just dead? What if you are just dead? Then what?"

"I know alright!? I know what can happen Charles, I'm not stupid! Do really think I like having people trying to kill me?! Do you think I enjoy it?! I know it's not fine, but what else can I do? I'm not gonna hide I don't do that! And your not making any of this easier!"
