Chapitre 119: Side effects of the Diadem
Harry woke up to someone's groaning and the first he realized was that he was not in his usual sleeping place.
Usually he would just transfigure the floor of his lab into a soft matress and plop down to it so that when he woke up, more inspired and energized, the tools will all be there so that he could get back to work immediately.
But he was not in the floor. Instead, he was in the lounge outside of his lab.
How had he come here…
Oh… Hermione. He remembered her coming to meet him the last night. Or was it the last evening. Or afternoon.
You could never really tell in the underground lab. Which was something that he rather liked. Because that way, he wouldn't have to worry about the passing of days and could just use his time as he wanted.
As he was thinking about his situation, a groan once again reached his ears and he looked around and found Hermione slumped on a table. A table that was filled to the brim with books.
Books that she couldn't possibly have read without…
He touched his head and it was gone.
Shit!
He walked around and the table and now could see the Diadem kept over on of her half read books.
She groaned again and he flinched.
Because he knew that right now, she must be suffering through the worst headache of her life.
The foolish girl.
Not that he had much room to call her foolish because he had often been in the same position but still.
He quickly took out two pepper up potions from his bottom purse and took a chair beside her and slowly caressed her cheeks.
"Hermione." He softly whispered to her because you DO NOT talk loudly to a person having such a bad headache.
She groaned and he mentally berated himself for his carelessness.
She should have never seen the Diadem.
Or if she did, then he should have informed her about it's negative side effects.
Poor girl.
"Hermione." He whispered "You need to drink some pepper up potion. It'll make everything alright." He whispered but she simply groaned and didn't say anything anymore and he had never felt so sad before.
To watch a friend feel so much pain because of your carelessness.
"Hermione" he whispered but received only a groan in response once again and he realized that he must force feed the potion to the girl.
He didn't like that idea.
He didn't like that idea one bit.
But he knew that it needed to be done.
So he flexed his muscles and shook his shoulders before he used his magic to cover her whole body with cushion. He was especially careful with the head because moving the head during such a migraine brought the patient a lot of pain.
He knew from his own experience.
Then he moved Hermione's body to the back and tilted her head upwards.
She groaned in pain, opening her mouth in the process and he quickly opened both vials and poured their content down her throat.
Making sure with his magic that they actually reached her stomach and not her lungs.
She grimaced slightly as the taste of the pepper up potion and groaned a bit but then relaxed as the potion started to soothe her headache.
He knew that two pepper up potions wouldn't be enough and that she would be having a headache for a whole week after she wake up but there was nothing he could do for her.
Well, maybe he could take her to Andromeda and see if she could help.
No, he might as well bring his aunt here.
But then he realized that this was an underground base that he never told anyone about except for Bitty.
Then he looked at Hermione once again and sighed.
Oh bugger it. He could always build another base for himself.
"Harry." Hermione's weak voice echoed in his ears and his head snapped to her.
She was looking weakly at him and mumbling something. He enhanced his ears and brought them closer to her mouth.
"…get home." She murmurred softly "Need to get home. 6 pm."
He looked at the magical watch in the wall and it said 10 pm.
Wow…
Fuck!
Now he will also have to take Hermione to her parents who would most likely be worried about her by now. And then, he would explain to them why their daughter was in such a condition.
This day just keeps getting better and better, doesn't it.
He just hoped that after this incident, her parents won't ban her from coming to visit her.
Well, regardless. He must first go to Andromeda and see if she can help.
With that thought, he turned to Hermione and gently supported her head before levitating her to the sofa.
"Hermione." He whispered. "I'm going to Andromeda's house to see it she could do something to help you. Alright?" he said, caressing her cheeks gently.
"Harry." She mumbled with a light frown and clutched onto his hand weakly "Don't leave me. Please don't leave me."
Wow! Now he was in a fucked up situation.
If he stayed with her and tried to soothe her, then she might be happy that he remained but her head ache won't get any better.
But if he leaves in order to bring Andromeda, then she would feel betrayed and he never wanted her to feel that way.
Damn…
Then he remembered something and realized how foolish he was to think like this.
"Bitty." He called out and the house elf appeared the next moment before enthusiastically greeting him.
Or at least she tried to before he silenced her voice.
He could still remember her enthusiasm to serve him during his headache.
And did not wanted Hermione to be assaulted by the same enthusiasm.
Not now at least.
He made a silencing gesture toward Betty before pointing to Hermione who was still clutching onto one of his hands like a baby. Bitty looked concerned for a moment before she nodded at him, looking for an order.
"Bring Andromeda here." He said and before he could say anything else, the house elf popped away.
And popped back a moment later with the desired person.
Except that the person was now wearing only bra and panties and…
Their eyes met.
He gulped and put a silencing charm in the whole room.
Author's Note:- I know that Diadem is a bit of OP item. So I guessed that if something like this existed in real life then it must have equally dangerous drawbacks.
In this case, you get a splitting headache if you keep using the Diadem for a long amount of time because of how much pressure it puts on your brain.
Do you guys have any suggestion about what the powers of Helga' Cup and Slytherin's Locket would be? If you do then please tell me about it in the comments section down below.
