Consequences

"Thank you, could you take this to the Headmaster. And if you see Fawkes, ask him to come and talk to me."

The owl bobs its head before taking off and disappearing in a couple of wingbeats.

"Erm, Professor," one of the assembled prefects ventures, "did that owl seem to be unusually smart?"

"1 point to Gryffindor for stating the obvious."

It takes another half an hour before the last of the prefects make their way down to the common room, and a large number of the rest of the house is loitering to see what's going on. Spotting Oliver Wood she calls him over.

"Mr Wood, a word if you would."

"What can I do professor?"

"Gather your team, you're all in charge of the first and second years while I hold a Prefect meeting. Prefects, follow me to a less public room."

Getting up, she leads the prefects into one of the near by guest suites.

"I want to know what has been happening to Miss Granger."

The sixth year prefect speaks up, "It's just the normal pecking order stuff, she'll snap soon and beat the snot out of the other girls and everything will be fine."

"That's normal pecking order stuff? So you don't remember when I confronted your own bullies in your first year Miss Walker. After the bullying was brought to my attention by one of the prefects at the time."

"Last night she followed Mr Potter to his sleeping accommodations. How was she able to do that?"

One of the boys shuffles uncomfortably, "She's been reading by the fire past curfew, we didn't notice at first and she seemed fine during the day."

"So, a first year has been staying up past my own bed time, and you think it's fine. The same first year that is subject to the normal pecking order stuff."

Mr Weasley speaks up, "I assumed that the female prefects had it under control."

"Mr Weasley, there isn't a boy and girl prefect because it's different jobs. There's a boys and girls prefect because there's different dorms. If it's outside the dorms it's as much your responsibility as any other prefect. Not one of you thought to speak to me or Madam Pomphrey, especially given that Miss Granger was almost killed by a Troll only a few weeks ago.

"Give me your badges, the Quidditch team is going to be doing double duty until I can pick out some new trustworthy lions."

Once she has the badges she turns to leave before looking back, "Oh, by the way there was an accident in the Forbidden Forest last night. Miss Granger is stable, but there have been long term complications. I now need to talk to her parents and take them to see her."
