Kindred Passion

CHAPTER 10:

Harry took Seanna's hand, "Come on Pretty Lady, Wake up." Seanna slowly opened her eyes, "Where am I?" Harry touched her cheek, "Hospital wing, you collapsed. Seanna is something wrong?" Mairead entered, "Ok, kids. Step back so I can see my patient." The moment Harry released her hand, Seanna screamed in pain. "Mairead, you'll just have to work around me," Harry said as he grasped Seanna's hand again. The contact restored, she spoke almost normally. "Mairead, the pain. It's horrible, but when Harry touches me it goes away." Mairead thought for a moment, "Harry do you feel anything?" He nodded, "Yeah. When I'm holding her hand, it's like I have this really wicked bellyache."

Tariq stumbled into the room, "Seanna, love. What's wrong?" Exasperated, Mairead scolded, "If you gentlemen would give me a chance, I might find out. Harry, I wish Muirinn were here, but she's out of reach." He grinned, "Sibeal and Sirius are on their way. I, mmm, think I interrupted something," he blushed. Tariq winked at him, "I think she'll forgive you. Now Sirius, on the other hand"" "Yeah. Specially when I've been trying to get them together for months." Mairead cut in, "Will you two stop giggling about Sibeal's sex life?"

"Who's discussing my sex life," Muirinn stepped into the room? Mairead snorted, "One highly sexed Vampyre and your nosy young friend." Erin chuckled, "No Harry, your timing was perfect. Didn't interrupt anything but a nap." She winked at him. "Now, what's up with Seanna?" As she and Mairead examined the young woman, the Healer told of Seanna's reaction to Harry's touch. Muirinn looked around the room, "Ladies and Gentlemen, this is going to get a bit personal, so I suggest you scram." As Harry let go, Seanna sucked in a breath. A quiet voice spoke, "Seanna, I'm here. Let me help you." Looking up into Achak's eyes, she nodded.

With the Nosferatu on one side, controlling her pain, and Tariq on the other, Seanna said, "Ok, Mairead. Do your worst." After a lengthy exam, Mairead said, "Ok, Seanna, at this point you have been pregnant about 16 days." Muirinn continued, "The reason for the severe pain is that this child is growing far faster than normal. Your body simply cannot keep up with the space it needs, so the pain is your muscles overstretching themselves. Fortunately, it will happen in spurts. You'll have the pain for a while and then it will go away, to come back at a later time."

Seanna appeared stunned, "Exactly how fast is this baby growing?" "At this rate, I would say you have about four weeks before the birth," Mairead explained. Seanna shrieked, "I what? But that means"" ""That this baby is growing one week for each day your pregnant," Muirinn finished. "I'm sorry. Mairead and I found mention of an extremely short gestation in the old records, but we thought it was legend, not fact."

"So our baby is due about the end of March," Tariq said. "Yes." Muirinn replied, "But I'm not sure what we can do about the pain." Achak looked at Tariq, "Would you care to have some company for a while?" Seanna smiled at him, "You, Achak? I'd be tickled. But why?" The Nosferatu touched her cheek, "That way, I am near if you need pain blocking, dear Child. And Harry can substitute in, if he wishes." Muirinn glowed, "Knowing Harry's affection for Seanna, you'll probably have to chase him off with a bludger." Noticing Miles come in, she continued, "You do realize that this child is going to put a strain on the training you all must do. After all he will be a "dhampir' and must be taught about the responsibilities of his role."

Seanna looked confused, "What is a dhampir?" Miles sat on the bed beside her, "A Dhampir is a child of kindred and human parentage. Their traditional role is as a hunter of those vampires who do harm to the innocent. Because they are of Kindred blood, they can smell out others who would harm a woman and child as easily as they would a warrior. If that is the role destined for this child, he will be trained to be the best. We do not take kindly to those who hurt innocents." He smiled at Seanna, "Do not worry, child. That is a long time from now."

"Oh Seanna," Mairead interrupted, "Considering the unexpected time line, I think you had been cancel any strenuous intimacy plans. Let's not create any other strange occurrences in this pregnancy." Seanna wrinkled her nose at Mairead, "You mean, no intercourse. Oh well. What a bummer!" Muirinn looked at Mairead, Seanna and Tariq, "Now can I get back to some experiments I was involved with?" Tariq winked at her, "Having fun, Sibeal? I thought Sirius could use a few hints." He chuckled, "Seanna seemed to enjoy them." Seanna glared at him, "Tariq, you didn't," just as Sirius entered the room. Grinning, the wizard said, "Yep, he did!" Muirinn laughed, "Face it Seanna, men simply cannot keep a secret. Now gentlemen, I'm sure if you put your minds to it, you can find a way to get Seanna back to her flat with a minimum of fuss. The sooner the better."

Soon, Seanna was ensconced on the sofa in her flat, "Tariq, I am NOT going to bed. I'm not an invalid." "But Seanna"" "No buts. Now if you don't stop hovering like Uriel himself, I'm going to start screaming." She lowered her voice, "Habib, I'm sorry. I just hate the idea of being cooped up in here. Forgive me, love." He replied, "I know sweetheart. Come here," and Seanna nestled into his arms. "Why can't things be normal for us Tariq? All I want is the man I love and to have his child." Tariq grinned, "Seanna, my love, normal is something you and I will never be."

There was a knock on the door. Seanna said, "It's Achak. Would you please tell him he doesn't have to knock?" Tariq went to open the door. "Achak, I've been issued orders. You don't have to knock." "Oh? Seanna, child, how are you feeling?" "No pain right now Achak, just irritation." Tariq watched them closely "I have some things to do so if you'll excuse me," he bent to give Seanna a kiss, "I'll see you later."

As Tariq went across the room, the door swung open with a crash, and darting in, Harry almost knocked him off his feet. Taking hold of the youngster, Tariq exclaimed, "Stop right there, Harry!" Seanna burst out laughing at the sight, "Harry, calm down," she said as he tried to get loose. He stopped struggling. "Seanna, you're ok!" She smiled at the young man, "I'm fine, Harry. Tariq, please let him go." Looking directly at Harry, Tariq said, "We need to get some things straight. I know you care about Seanna, but think about what would have happened if she had stood here instead of me."

Harry turned white. "I didn't think. I'm sorry and I will never again come in that door out of control." He looked at the young Seif al Nu'man with tears streaming down his face, "I don't want anything to happen to Seanna or the baby." Tariq gave him a hug, "I know that Harry, I just want you to stop and think BEFORE you rush through a door. Now, what do you want?" Harry said, "I came to see if you and Achak wanted to hunt. I can stay with Seanna." Achak spoke up, "A hunt would be most welcome. Thank you Harry." Tariq glanced at the Nosferatu, "I'll run the errand I need to do. Want to meet me in the main hall?" Achak nodded, "In about 20 minutes."

After leaving Seanna, Tariq went in search of Albus Dumbledore. Finding him in the front hall speaking to Professor McGonagall, Tariq waited until the Headmaster called to him. "Tariq, I heard about Seanna. How is she feeling?" "Fine, but she's already getting edgy about having to stay put. Is there any way you could find her a place to go when she doesn't want to stay in the flat?" Dumbledore thought about it. "Why don't I get together with Remus and see what we can come up with? I'll let you know in the morning." Tariq nodded, "Thank you Professor. I'll be going. Achak and I are headed out to hunt." Albus said, "Be careful Tariq."

Shortly after the Vampyres left, Seanna's sitting room was awash with teenagers. Grinning, Seanna motioned to Harry, "Why don't you introduce me to the ones I haven't met yet?" He smiled, "Ok, Seanna. Everybody, raise your hand as I say your name, so Seanna can tell who is who. Pretty lady, we have Dean Thomas, Seamus Finnegan, and Neville Longbottom from my dorm. Alicia Spinnet and Angelina Johnson from the Quidditch team. Parvati and Padma Patil, Ginny Weasley, and the two red-headed terrors"" ""Must be Ron's brothers, Gred and Forge," Seanna smirked. Fred and George hollered in unison, "Harry told you!" "Yep. It sounds "cute'," she said, knowing they'd take "cute' as an insult.

The smile left her face, "Harry, I need your help." He reached out for her hand, "I'm right here Seanna, just breathe through it." Watching them, Fred said, "Ok, Ron, what's going on here?" Thinking it through, Ron said, "It's like this, Seanna gets these pains from time to time, and Miss Shaheen found out that Harry can help her block the pain. Now, I'm gonna ask a favor. If any of you see Seanna get really pale and Harry or the Vampyres aren't around, get her help. Quick!" Seanna groaned, "Great! Just what I needed, a school full of nurse-maids." Ginny spoke, "We think you're terrific, and we care about you." "Well, if you all feel that way, you're welcome to come here during your free times. It will help keep me from going crazy."

Seanna thought for a time, "There's just one thing. I have a friend who's staying here to help me. His name is Achak." Dean asked, "Is he the Vampyre that looks, well"kinda dead." She answered, "Yes Dean. His appearance may frighten you at first, but if you take the chance, you'll find what I did. Achak is a very caring and intelligent person. You don't see him much around the school because he knows that most humans find him repulsive." Angelina spoke next, "Seanna, what do you mean by "most' humans?" "Well, Angelina, there are humans here who treat him with respect"from a distance. There are also a few who actually initiate physical contact, such as touch." She looked at Harry and he nodded. "Of the last, I can name three. Miss Shaheen, Harry and myself. I can't say for Harry or Muirinn, but in my case, I am able to see the wonderful being inside the form."

Cho inquired, "Seanna didn't it bother you the first time he touched you?" Seanna smiled, "Actually Cho, I touched him. The major difference is that he feels like he just came in from a snowstorm." "So you don't fear him?" "Cho, the only ones who need to fear Achak are our enemies. He and the others Muirinn Shaheen brought are here for two things. To protect Hogwarts, and to protect it's students. Although there are a few who might end up targets by their behaviour." As Seanna finished, Achak entered the room. She smiled, "Ladies and Gentlemen, this is my friend Achak. Achak these are some of Harry's friends."

Her eyes caught a movement, and as she watched, Ginny Weasley walked up to the large Nosferatu. Holding out her hand, she said, "Hi Achak, I'm Ginny." Eyeing the child, Achak gently took the small hand. "Hello Ginny. Are you Ron's sister?" She smiled at him, "Yep. Come on," and taking the Vampyre in tow, she led him to Seanna. Nudging her brothers she said, "Mind your manners, you big lumps, and let Achak sit down." Practically falling over themselves, Fred and George got out of Ginny's reach. Achak asked, "Ginny, aren't you afraid of me?" Meeting his eyes, she answered, "Nope! Seanna's been telling us about you. She said you're her friend. Can we be friends too?" Achak chuckled, "Child, I would be proud to be the friend of someone with such courage," and he lifted her onto his lap. Seanna burst into laughter, "You see. I told you there would be females who look beneath the surface and find gold." He frowned, "Seanna, she's a child." "Maybe, but if a child can find you fascinating, so can a woman."

"Achak," Harry spoke, "Seanna had an attack about 20 minutes ago." He looked at her, "Was it bad, child?" Seanna touched his hand, "Just bad enough for Harry's help." Ginny was looking around the room, "Hey guys, come on over. Achak's really neat." He looked at the small redhead, "Child you are very much like Seanna. You have a loving heart." Achak touched her cheek, "I promise to do everything in my power to protect you, little one." Ginny laid her head against him. Watching, Harry and Seanna both noticed the blood tears in Achak's eyes. If a Vampyre could be said to have a heart, Achak has just lost his to Ginny. Harry asked, "How was your hunt?" He replied, "Actually, I got into a discussion with Miles and didn't get the chance." Harry looked at Seanna and she nodded. He asked, "Ginny will you please help me for a minute?" She jumped up, "Sure Harry, what do you need?" He smiled, "Just come with me." Taking her to a storage area, he said, "Do you know why I asked Achak about hunting?" She looked perplexed, "No, Why?" "Ginny, Achak is a Vampyre"" "I know that!" ""And Vampyres require blood to exist. Usually they get it from hunting. Because he didn't hunt, he didn't get the blood he needs." "Oh. Why are you telling me this?" Harry smiled, "Let me show you something." He opened an icebox almost half full of small dark bottles. "When the Loup-Garou hunt for food, they save the blood and bring it up here. On the shelf are some mugs, get one. Now take a bottle and open it." Ginny did as Harry instructed. "Fill the mug and set it on this blue tile." A few moments later, he bade her pick up the mug. "It's warm," She exclaimed. Harry told her, "It's a special warming tile." Eyeing Harry, Ginny said, "This isn't for me, is it?" He grinned, "No, but I thought you'd like to give your new friend his dinner."

Ginny's face lit up like a Christmas tree, "Oh yes, I'd like that!" Harry hugged her, "Now you know what to do if you're ever in this spot again." Thrilled, she said, "Neat. Thanks Harry." With that, Ginny very carefully made her way back to the sofa. "Achak," she said softly, "This is for you," And handed him the cup. Looking at the contents of the cup and then up at the child, he said quietly, "Do you know what this is, Child?" She smiled, "Yes, Harry told me about it, and showed me what to do." The Nosferatu touched her hand. "I must get to know you better, Ginny. You are an amazing young woman." Suddenly Harry let out a yell, "If we don't get moving, we'll miss dinner." With that comment, the various teens said goodbye and headed out. Ginny looked at the Nosferatu, "Achak?" "Yes, Child?" "Will I see you tomorrow?" He smiled, "Most assuredly. If you don't see me around the school, then I will be here. After all, I am here to help Seanna." "Good," Ginny replied and gave him a kiss on the cheek. "Bye! Bye Seanna!" "Goodbye Ginny."

Seanna sat there chuckling. After about 10 minutes, Achak gave up and asked, "What are you laughing about?" She giggled, "Dear Friend, you've made a conquest." "Seanna, she's a child." Seanna sobered up, "No Achak, Ginny is 16 and on the verge of womanhood. I can tell you right now, that unless someone comes along to distract her, you will be her #1 fantasy." He groaned, "You mean"" ""I mean, she has a crush on you, and from what I can see, it's a doozie." She started laughing again, "I told you there were women of all ages who think Vampyres are sexy. My only comment is, they've got to catch them. Leave mine alone!"

As they sat and talked, Achak was thinking of how much he had changed with the coming of Seanna. "Achak?" Seanna calles ns name, and then she touched his hand. As he turned to look at her, she said, "Where were you, dear friend?" "I'm sorry Seanna, I was thinking about how things have changed since you arrived. Tariq has become calm and focused, Sirius and Sibeal are finally getting things together, and you've really changed me. I have friends that don't shrink from my touch. Seanna, if anyone ever figures out all your talents, I think theatesatest one will be a healing heart. Harry is blooming with your friendship and trust. Mairead told me that when you collapsed, he took the role of leader and got everyone doing what was needed."

Tariq entered the room, "Hello, love. I hear you're throwing parties." Seanna grinned, "Yeah, for a room full of teenagers. I had a blast." He looked at Achak, "And you let her get away with it?" "Certainly Tariq. She never left the sofa." Achak moved to the chair and allowed Tariq to take his place. "I spoke to Albus tonight. He and Remus are going to set you up a hideaway other than the flat. He'll let us know when it's ready." "Habib, did you hunt tonight?" He smiled, "Yes love, I did." She snuggled against him. There was a "pop', startling all three of them. "Harry Potter's friend hungry," Dobby asked? Seanna sprang up and gave him a kiss on the forehead, "Oh yes, Dobby, I'm very hungry." Blushing he replied, "Dobby set food on little table so H Pot Potter's friend can reach." Having done so, Dobby disappeared. Achak chuckled as he looked at Tariq, "Well, she just scared off the house elf." Seanna protested, "I did not!" Tariq smiled, "I'll be he never got a kiss before." "Oh, you!"

Seanna curled back up with Tariq and picked up a piece of fruit. "Yum, tastes good." Suddenly, she fell silent. "Seanna," Tariq called. Achak got up and went to her. Grasping her hand, he focused on her. "Come on, Seanna. Take a deep breath and let go." The pain lessened and she looked up. "Thank you Achak. It has passed." Tariq knelt in front of her, "Seanna, you frightened me. Please tell us when this starts sweetheart." She caressed his face, "I'm sorry, Tariq, and Achak. I was just trying so hard to control, I didn't have words." She sighed, "Dearest, I'm getting tired." "Ok, love. Say goodnight." Seanna took k's k's hand and kissed his cheek, "Goodnight, sweet friend. I'll see you in the morning." "Goodnight, dear child." He eyed Tariq, "You'll call me?" He replied, "I promise I'll call you. Goodnight Achak." "Pleasant rest, Tariq."
