Kapitel 72: Harry's Resolve Tested
"What's happening to her?!" Ron shouted in a worried voice.
"Bloody move yourself." Harry sighed as he pushed Ron out of the way and began waving his wand over Hermione's body several times, eventually she stopped shaking. "Well...she will live." Harry said before he got up and picked up his grimoire. "We are going to want to take her to a hospital to see a healer." Harry said.
Harry felt like hitting a wall at this point, the one time he forgot to place some protective charms and wards on his room was the one time someone actually tried to come in. Of course Harry was not so much bothered by the fact that Hermione did it, he was more bothered by what could have happened if Sirius or Ginny came in and picked up his book and opened it without realising what it was.
"What happened to her?" Tonks asked.
"She activated the magical defences on the grimoire." Harry explained as Arthur levitated Hermione out.
"Will she be alright?" Fleur asked Harry as everyone followed after Arthur.
"She will live if that is what you mean." Harry responded.
Harry sat outside a hospital room along with Sirius, Fleur, Tonks and the Weasley's. Inside the room the healers were working on Hermione. Harry looked calm though internally he was upset about how Granger had just cost him hours of his life with a single act and was now tempted to just go and punch her unconscious face. If it was up to Harry then he would let her suffer but he doubted that Sirius, Ginny, Tonks and Fleur would be happy with that. They might not like Hermione but they were not yet at the point where they would leave her to Azkaban or death, which is why they simply told the healers that Hermione had unintentionally come across a dark artifact.
Plus Harry knew that there were other people who would suffer because of Hermione's actions that did not deserve to suffer, namely the muggleborns who were hated enough as it is without it being posted in the news that one of them tried to mess with a family grimoire.
"We can't tell anybody about this you know." Tonks said.
"Why not?" Ginny asked.
"Because she would get a straight trip to Azkaban if not a dementors kiss or a shove through the veil." Tonks answered, causing many of the Weasley's to pale.
"For trying to read a book?" Fred and George blurted out with shock.
"For trying to read a family grimoire," Tonks corrected. "it is bad enough that she tried to take something that is not hers but the fact that it was a family grimoire is going to piss a lot of people off."
"A lot of purebloods bigots would claim that muggleborns will try and steal our magic and knowledge, imagine what they would do if they heard about this." Sirius said. "Besides stealing is a crime, stealing a family grimoire is one of the biggest crimes of all. It gives you access to a family's history, personal history and personal things that the family would not want to reveal plus a bunch of other stuff including family magic. She is lucky all things considered."
"Lucky?! The poor girl is in hospital, how is she lucky?!" Mrs Weasley demanded.
"Do not speak like she was just an innocent victim," Sirius replied. "besides she is lucky. If Harry wanted to charge her then Azkaban or death, besides she is lucky that she didn't try and open a grimoire from a darker family. Some families like the Bones or Longbottom's would probably have a simple defence that would not create lasting harm, darker families like the Lestrange's would have deadly defences on theirs, if she had tried to do the same thing with them then the book would have killed them or hurt her worse if the family members did not do it themselves."
"Well the Potter family is a light family so..."
"No they are not," Harry cut Mrs Weasley off. "I have checked, my family has historically been a grey family."
"Excuse me," The healer's exited the room with the lead healer walking up to them. "we've done all we can to help her, but I am afraid that she has lost the use of her right arm, she will never be able to use it again." Mrs Weasley along with many gasped at that.
"Can we go and see her?" Arthur asked.
"Yes, of course." The healer replied. "I will be back in half an hour, do call me immediately if anything bad happens." He said before walking off. Everyone walked into the room to find Hermione sitting on a hospital bed, her right arm in a sling with her right hand looking thinner and paler than usual.
"Hermione!" Ron said as he rushed to her side along with all the Weasley's, Harry had instead closed the door and placed some locking and privacy charms on it. "Are you alright?"
"What do you last remember dear?" Mrs Weasley asked.
"I..." Hermione shook her head slightly. "I picked up the...the..."
"The Potter family grimoire," Harry cut her off, she and everyone in the room turned to look at him. "you know...my family book."
"It...it hurt me."
"It was meant to," Harry said in an unsympathetic voice. "you are not a Potter and therefore you were not allowed to read it. Tell me did the thought of there being magical consequences ever come into your head when you tried to read my family book?"
"I didn't know it was going to hurt me! All I did was pick it up and..."
"Do not bullshit me Granger," Harry cut her off in a deceptively calm voice. "the defences do not activate if someone merely picks the book up, it activates when someone tried to open it and read it. And I know you enough to know that you always read the titles of each book before you open them."
"Harry, she didn't know." Arthur said in soft voice, while he understood where Harry was coming from he still thought that Hermione had suffered enough.
"Does it matter? What matters to me is the fact that she entered my room without permission and read the one thing I told her not to read." Harry said, glaring at Hermione.
"Back off," Ron said, glaring at Harry. "you weren't like this when Ginny got possessed."
"If you are idiotic enough to compare an elven year old girl getting possessed by the worst dark lord of the centaury to a fifteen year old, nearly sixteen, girl with a reading obsession who willingly broke the law then fine but do not infect the rest of us with your stupidity." Harry said, though he did not look at Ron and instead chose to glare at Hermione the whole time.
