Chapter 21

September 12, 1996

Mal, Luna and Caterina had become close in ways that only mothers with infants can. They helped one another study and took turns taking breaks.

Caterina’s quadruplets Joff, Loren, Alison and Miram still had yet to be released from St. Mungo’s so she got an occasional baby fix with Lysander and Lorcan.

Mal had tired of wet spots on her shirts and had an expressor on its lightest setting strapped to her chest hidden under a wizard space charm.

It had been over a week now and Colin still had yet to wake up from his fugue state. True to Mal and Luna’s worry, his marks were falling.

Filius had been very lenient but his inability to pay attention or handle schoolwork was holding him back.

Mal had a slight levitating charm on her shoes so she wasn’t really walking walking down the stairs, she sort of floated.

Luckily all of their Herbology work was essentially lecture which meant that they didn’t have to stand for an entire lesson.

This was very much appreciated by Mal, Luna and Caterina…

Luna preferred to keep her sons with her but Neville usually claimed one after lunch to give her a bit of a break.

The small class of Fifth and Seventh Year parents was released early to get comfortable for lunch.

Luna was pushing her floating pram down the stairs leaving Mal and Caterina to guide Colin.

Then abruptly Ginny shoved past Mal, who flailed nearly falling only Luna was quick her wand and caught her with a weak aresto momentum.

Caterina let out a cry of dismay when Ginny who tripped grabbed Colin, perhaps in an attempt to stop her fall and the two of them began to fall down the stairs.

Luna and Mal who had recovered from her fright, both tried to help.

Luna cast cushioning charms all the way to the first floor landing while Mal tried levitating the two.

The three panicking witches hurried down the stairs as safely as they could. Caterina was so panic-stricken that she could do little but wring her hands.

Luna sent an elf after Andromeda while a worried Mal reluctantly sent for Seamus.

It didn’t take long for Andromeda, Medi-Witch Aednat and Healing Apprentice Deb Smith to arrive.

Andromeda conjured stretchers beneath them and pulled out a portkey. “Send their bondmates to St. Mungos.”

Then all five disappeared.

It didn’t take long for Neville, Greg, Seamus and Michael to arrive.

By this time the three witches were almost inconsolable.

They hadn’t even bothered to clean away the blood.

“Where is Colin? Mal where is Colin?”

Mal sagged the moment Greg reached her, “He and Ginny…”

Michael flinched, “Ginny? What did Ginny do?”

Luna took a few breaths to calm herself. “She shoved Mal out of the way, she nearly fell but I kept her safe I promise. Ginny must have lost her own balance and grabbed Colin to steady herself only to rip Colin out of Caterina’s hand. We tried to stop their fall or at least cushion it but the staircase…it kept moving…”

“Whose blood is this?” Neville frowned. “Ginny’s? Colin’s?”

“I don’t know…” Mal sobbed, “Andromeda took them both to St. Mungos’.”

“The three of you should go back to the apartments, you’ve had a shock.” Greg said as he used a lightening charm on Mal. “You can come to ours. Seamus and Michael can use the Slytherin Common Room floo to get to St. Mungos. Neville why don’t you use the floo in the infirmary to call the Corners, the Weasleys, the Prewetts and the O’Shanesseys.”

The four sires nodded, separating reluctantly.

Greg carried Mal while escorting Luna and Caterina to his apartment.

He would send an elf to their professors, there was no way that Mal could focus on schoolwork right now and he couldn’t leave her alone.

XooooooX

Michael and Seamus had never been close…

But they were both worried.

Michael’s first thought was for Mishel of course but he was worried about Ginny as well.

For Seamus and Colin’s sake he truly hoped this was an accident…

They arrived to find the Maternity/Paternity Ward in a state of Chaos…

The medi-witches were discussing three Hogwarts students were present.

One was in emergency delivery, the other in surgery and the other was in the process of delivery.

Seamus grabbed one of the Medi-Witches, “Colin O’Shanessey, where is he?”

“In surgery. Delivery room two. The room is sealed. He’s suffered some sort of trauma. The Aurors have been called.”

Seamus leaned against the wall, “The Aurors?”

“He felt down the stairs and he’s a nursing bearer. It’s customary…”

“I wasn’t anywhere near him why?” Seamus whispered.

“Then you won’t be the one in legal trouble will you?” the Medi-Witch snapped.

“Ginevra Corner?”

“Delivery Room three. Emergency caesarean. That room is locked down as well.

XooooooX

Gwen Corner was in the Hogwarts’ Nursery looking after the few babies that were present.

Devon Inglebee, Maddy Abbott, David Smith, Channa Tonks-Smith, Aaron Macmillan and Rivalen Davies were the current infants in their charge.

She sensed something was wrong and to her worry, a Corner elf appeared.

“Master Bram tell Abra to tell Missy Gwen that Missy Ginny be in St. Mungos. She had a fall.”

“Is Mishel alright?” Gwen asked as she leaned against a table to brace herself.

“Healer Andromeda be helping Mishel be born.”

“Where is Michael?”

“Master Michael be in St. Mungos.”

“Keep an eye on the babies. I must go to St. Mungos. Abra will take me.”

Gwen Corner hoped that Mishel would be alright, it would break Michael’s heart if he lost her.

XooooooX

Charlie was about to head for his house in Hogsmeade to meet Viktor for Lunch when his bondmate appeared looking worried.

“Ginny end Colin iz in surgery. Zhey fell down ze stairs.”

Charlie scribbled on a scrap of parchment and sent it to Filius via elf.

Then they headed to their house to floo to St. Mungos.

While Charlie wasn’t fond of Ginny, he worried for his neice and Michael…

The thought of losing his own baby was painful; he wanted Michael to know that he cared even if Ginny was a brat.

XooooooX

Fleur was tidying up her classroom and was about to send for lunch when a Hogwarts elf arrived.

“Master Filius cancel Miss Fleur’s classes. Family emergency. There be accident with fifth years…Miss Fleur be wanted at St. Mungos.”

Fleur summoned her coat before hurrying into her office to use the floo.

Had Colin taken a turn for the worst? Had that Ginny finally lost it?

Fleur hoped they would be alright.

XooooooX

Eventually nearly every member of the extended Weasley-Prewett family which included the O’Shanesseys and the Corners had camped out in the Maternity/Paternity ward.

With the exception of the heavily pregnant Mal Goyle who had already likely suffered enough trauma having to watch her adopted siblings injured so grieviously that they were in surgery and locked behind wards.

Ron wasn’t present either, whether he was informed or not wasn’t imperative. He was the type to loudly fly off the handle and would likely blame Colin for the whole thing. For both Michael and Seamus’ sake, it was best that he not be here.

“I knew we shouldn’t have let Ginny leave the Park. We should have kept her locked up until after the birth…” Bram Corner muttered darkly.

“We couldn’t keep her a prisoner against her will, she is still underage and needs to finish her education.” His wife chided.

Michael swallowed, “She’ll be alright won’t she?”

“Will who be alright?” Bram asked gruffly.

“Mishel…” Michael asked in a broken sort of voice.

“If Andromeda’s in with her, she will be.” Gideon said in a strained voice, “She takes pride in the claim that she’s never lost a bearer or a child.”

While Arthur and Septimus weren’t especially fond of Ginny, finding her far too much like Molly, they had no ill-will towards her daughter even if Ginny had no interest in being a mother.

Seamus was trembling, begging under his breath for the Healing goddesses Aine, Airmid, Boann, Brighid, Scathach and Sequana to spare Colin. Promising to be a better bonded…to…

He couldn’t take the waiting and seemed almost broken himself.

When Gideon realized that Seamus had progressed from keening and quiet pleading to clawing his arms as if the sheading of his blood would help Colin, he demanded a calming draught for his son-in-law and forced the teen to drink it.

The calming draught delivered was quite strong, clearly a Snape and Seamus was pulled into uneasy unconsciousness leaving Gideon to heal the damage that he had done to himself.

It would be sometime before anyone emerged from the warded rooms where Colin and Ginny were undergoing surgery…

XooooooX

It wasn’t Andromeda who emerged from the delivery room, it was Deborah, her daughter-in-law and apprentice…

“Is she alright?” Michael blurted out. “Tell me, is Mishel alright?”

“Mishel is fine. She’ll need to stay here for observation for a few days to make sure she stays that way. Ginny will be transferred to the Janus Thickey Ward, while she was unconscious she made comments that were suspicious. Andromeda has made arrangements for you to stay in a private room with Mishel.”

“What about Colin?” Gideon asked stiffly.

“He’s stable but given the trauma to his head even with the magical attempts to protect him, he too is being transferred to the Janus Thickey where he will remain under observation under my authority.” Ted said as he wearily leaned against the wall.

“Is there any idea how long they will stay?” Septimus frowned.

“Coupled with Colin’s current post-partum depression and his trauma, I am unsure. As for Ginny I would need to consult with Andromeda. The potions Colin will be on will make it impossible for him to nurse.” Ted sighed.

“He’s nearly the same as our Lysander and Lorcan, I’m sure Luna won’t mind if we take him in for a while. I know Dean would but I think Pavarti’s milk is too rich.” Neville pipped up from the shadows.

“I’m sure that Seamus will be glad Colm is in good hands when he wakes up.” Gideon said quietly.

Ted left them to make arrangements for Colin’s transfer to a different floor before consulting with his bonded.

Slowly the extended family began to drift off.

Dean carried Seamus up to Colin’s room in the Janus Thickey ward, while Neville stayed on to make sure that all of the arrangements for his temporary custody of Colm were settled.

It was Michael’s mother, or rather stepmother who escorted him to the room where they were going to bring Mishel.

Leaving Bram to discuss Ginny’s health and care with Andromeda.

Eventually Neville left to let the others know about Colin and Ginny, he’d already sent an elf to let Luna know to expect Colm.

While they were his godparents, their boys were nearly as old and when contemplating milk brothers it was important.
XooooooX

After informing Draco, knowing Harry was a worrier Neville headed Mal and Greg’s apartment hoping that Luna was still with them.

To his relief she was…

“So we’ve temporarily gained another son…” she mused as she cuddled Colm.

“Hopefully not for long, Seamus adores Colm…” Neville frowned.

“But his first love is Colin…” Mal muttered. “How are they?”

“Colin is stable but he’s going to get the care he needs. He’s being transfered to the Janus Thickey Ward…Mishel seems to be okay. Michael will be staying with her. Ginny to will do a stint in the Janus Thickey ward. She made some suspicious comments while she was in surgery while unconscious. They weren’t explicit what they were, which given the circumstances is understandable. Either she was trying to lose her daughter or she purposely tried to hurt Colin. Either way, she likely won’t be released soon and I don’t Michael would let her anywhere near Mishel after this.” Neville yawned.

“We best be heading to bed ourselves.” Luna said airly. “I think after the day we’ve had, I’ll let the elves look after the boys.”

“If Ginny won’t feed Mishel, what will they do?” Mal frowned.

“I don’t know…she’ll need the right sort of milk…” Luna shrugged.

“I’ve been gently expressing milk for a few days…since I haven’t delivered yet it should be alright. I’ll send a few bottles to Andromeda. If they are okay then I’ll do what I can. Ginny maybe a spoilt brat but her daughter is family…” Mal muttered under her breath as she headed over to the desk to scribble a note to her healer.

Mal had never been especially social and until this summer hadn’t even really had a friend before but Luna and Colin had reached out to her in a way that Ginny who felt as if she were replacing her hadn’t.

Greg was clearly proud of her…

Luna and Neville left with Lysander, Lorcan and Colm to head down the corridor to their own room.

Hopefully, Ginny and Colin would get the help they needed and Mishel would be alright despite the Incident on the stairs…

Luna just hoped that it hadn’t been intentional on Ginny’s part.

What do you think? Outstanding? Exceeds expectations? Acceptable? Poor? Dreadful? Troll?
