Chapter 3: Healing

Sirius and Remus walked into the office with a terrified Harry at their side. Both men felt bad, the poor boy looked so sad.

"Why hello Sirius, Remus and little um, who is this poor little boy?" Madam Pomphry asked.

"This is Harry Potter, Dumboldore sent us to rescue him and adopt him because the Dursleys were mistreating him."

"Harry Potter?" Poppy asked. "Son of James and Lily? And those muggles were abusing him?!"

Harry whimpered at the sudden shouting and Remus noticed, scooting closest to the hurt child.

"Yes, and we've noticed Harry's covered in bruises and his head is bleeding due to being beaten, so we were hoping you could tell us the extent of his injuries and heal them." He said.

"Of course, come here Harry dear." Poppy said kindly to the injured child. Harry whimpered and backed away.

"It's ok Harry, she's only trying to help you and make you feel better, your hurt." Sirius explained gently.

Harry looked at them uncertainly. He still wasn't sure he could trust them. What if they hurt him? What if they were like his aunt and uncle?

"That's right Harry, I'm only going to help you and make you feel better, I can see your hurt." Poppy said softly.

Harry thought a moment before allowing Poppy to carefully put him on the table, making him flinch a little bit and Poppy to apologize.

"I'm going to run a diagnostic spell on him so I can give him the right options from Professor Snape." Poppy explained.

They nodded. Severous Snape wasn't exactly chummy with the Potter's and Sirius, in fact...he hated them.

However, Snape loved Lily so that's why they knew he'd help Harry. As for Sirius, well he and James bullied Severous when he was young, and he sure could hold a grudge.

"No!" Harry whimpered in fear when he saw the wand. "It's gonna hurt a lot!" He wailed.

Poppy shook her head. "No dear, I promise you that you won't feel a thing, it's completely painless."

With that, Harry nodded slowly, still uncertain but was willing to cooperate with the lady. After all, he was in lot of pain.

"Alright Harry, you must stay very still when I do this, otherwise it won't work properly." Poppy explained.

Harry nodded nervously as he lay on his back, then the wand ran over him. It didn't hurt! It tickled! It was not so bad.

He was then sat up slowly as the wand ran over him again slowly, making Harry smile a little bit.

"Ok, this parchment lists all his injuries and I'm afraid it's going to be quite long." Poppy said gravely.

She showed the parchment to Sirius and Remus who gasped in dismay and Remus nearly cried.

Injuries of Harry Potter *3 broken ribs, 2 cracked ones *A sprained left wrist *A broken left foot*Very minor skull fractures *A broken left arm *Severe dehydration *Severe malnutrition *Burn scars

That was just the few injuries that little Harry had. He had many, many more which brought tears to the godfathers' eyes.

"Oh Harry, you poor little boy." Sirius whispered to the little boy, whose head hung low.

"I'm so sorry about what's happened to you Harry, no little boy should have that much pain." Remus said tearfully.

Harry sniffled sadly and wiped his own eyes. He was making them sad! That was why they were crying. He was a bad boy.

"I-I'm sorry for making you feel sad sirs, I didn't mean too, please don't cry." Harry said shyly.

"Oh Harry, you've done nothing wrong, we're just sad that your relatives hurt you so terribly, that's all." Remus explained.

"It truly is terrible to see so many wounds on one little boy." Poppy said sadly, looking down at Harry with sad eyes.

"Now, I am going to floo Severous and see if he'll be able to make some healing potions and some for the more severe wounds." Poppy said.

In almost an instant, Severous Snape was in the middle of the room, he looked at Harry in wonder.

Harry whimpered and hid behind his godfathers. That man looked so scary and mean. Was he going to hurt him?

"Harry, don't be scared, Snape is only here to make you potions so we can heal your wounds." Sirius explained calmly.

Harry looked at the man who was looking at him with his dark eyes. "H-Hello sir." He said bravely.

"Hello Mr. Potter, I believe you are in need of some potions?" Snape asked in a monotone voice.

Harry nodded and Snape turned to Poppy for an explanation. "Why is he practically beaten?" He asked dryly.

"I'm afraid Harry was abused by the muggles for 2 years, Remus and Sirius rescued him." Poppy explained.

"The muggles hurt the child of Lily? Because he is magic and simply cannot contain it? That is absurd!" Snape said evily.

He was enraged a the muggles who hurt Harry. Sure, the boy was James's son, but he was also Lily's child. So Snape decided to help him out.

"I will make the potions right away Poppy, anything for Lily's child." Snape said before turning to the 2 men.

"Thank you." He said softly. "I don't know how to thank you for taking Lily's child out of that abusive muggle home."

The godfathers were blown away. They didn't think Severous was capable of feeling emotions. But they were wrong.

"Your welcome, we're going to give him the childhood he should have had 2 years ago." Remus replied.

Snape nodded and smiled very small before whisking away to his lab so he could make the potions immediately.

"Wow, I've never seen Severous so...warm." Sirius whispered. Remus nodded in agreement. "Yes, I guess he forgot about the 30 year grudge." He said.

"Yes, now into Harry's injuries...the potions will help immensely and will work almost immediately." Poppy began.

"But, since he has been starved and is extremely malnourished, he is missing many vitamins and minerals that are crucial for his survival."

"Is...is there anything we can do to help him?" Sirius asked in shock. Poppy nodded and got out a little bottle.

"This is a bottle of vitamins, he must take 3 a day until they are all gone, then he must come back so I can check his weight."

"How...how much does he weigh?" Remus asked worriedly, as Harry was the size of a 1-year-old.

"He is 25 pounds underweight, he is 15 pounds and the normal weight of a 4-year-old boy is at least 40 pounds."

They nodded and almost jumped when Snape suddenly returned in a matter of minutes.

"I have all the potions here for the boy, I wish you good luck, Mr. Potter." He said briskly.

Harry nodded as the man again whisked away. Harty soon took his healing potion, which healed all the pain in his body.

But the memories would never fade...
