Katta slept on for the next several hours, her father's face looming unpleasntly in the mix of sounds and colors that flooded her thoughts. Occasionally, she would try and sit up, but was always gently pushed back down and shushed. Her wrist gave no trouble any longer, and her throbbing temples slowly gave way to silence and darkness. Unconsciously, she smiled.
------
Rhys sat in the History of Magic Class, his thoughts everywhere but Professor Binns. Where had she gone? Was she alright? And above all, what was wrong with her father?

He suffered through class that afternoon--his mind focused almost compleatly on Katta. While he was normaly a god student who enjoyed class and paid very close attention, it was obvious that his thoughts were elsewhere.
Once the teacher dismissed the class, he was out of his seat and out the door, hurring down the hallway towards the Hospital Wing.
He didn't slow his stride until he passed througt he great doors, and walked to the first bed where Katta had fallen onto. He saw here still lying there, and he sunk, quietly, into the chair beside it.

After a long rest, Katta's eyes slowly opened. Sitting near her bed was none other than the one who knew- Kamron. She quickly closed her eys and turned over on her side. The throbbing in her wrist and head were nonexistent. she smiled, still squeezing her eyes shut. She would have to avoid him- things couldnt be quite the same between them- ever. She sighed, and rolled back onto her back, eyes still closed.
"Kamron," she said, very quietly."Kamron...He's going to kill me next time he sees me..." she said, her tear-scar starting to burn, not with the "curse scar" feel, but because a hot tear had come to rest right there.

He hadn't been looking at her when she first opened her eyes. His own eyes were closed and he was leaning back in his chair, lost in his own thought. As much as he had studied psycological behavior, he coudln't wrap his mind around he. Even in the furthest reaches of his imagination could he amagine a father hurting his own daughter....
He heard her speak and almsot started he gave a slight jump, letting his backback drop onto the floor at his feet, allowing him to twist in his chair so that he faced her.
"He dosen't have to know that you told me"
He commented quickly. That was the easiest thing. He would have to work quietly, with out her father knowing that the secret was out

Katta shook her head.
"He knows, Kamron. Somehow, he knows everything. Everything. And he will kill me. Is Madame Pomfrey not suspicious of my wrist? and the bruises on my arms, and the lashes on my back? Or was she even that thurough?" she waited for the fact to sink in, and then shook her head again.
"My dad will find out about this. And when he does, there'll be hell for me to pay..."
Katta was suprised at her own boldness. Admitting that her father beat her, and then using the word 'hell'? This was definitely new. Katta set her jaw.
"I told, I need to accept responsibility. And if you dare tell....." she trailed off and looked at the ceiling.

Kamron too was becoming more determined. Hearing her say the things that her father had done, and the managed he had caused toher made his anger boil again. He rose to his feet suddenly, kicking his bag to the side and sending books flying.
"I won't tell anyone, but I'm going going to let him touch you again either"
He declared, his determination, as well as his anger showing through in his voice.

Katta sat up abruptly.
"Stop it!" she said. "Stop it, stop it, stop it!" Her eyes were gleaming and her mouth was set tight.
"Want to make it easier for him? Wanna let Madame Pomfrey hear what my father does when he comes home from work? Stand on the Astronomy Tower at in the afternoon and YELL IT OUT FOR ALL TO HEAR!" Katta said, her own volume rising. "Because thats JUST what I need, Kamron. A protector who feeds the flame thats licking the logs tied about my feet. Burn me at the stake, Kamron." she said, anger evident in her voice.
"I dont need any help from anyone. I havent died yet, have I?" she asked, her tone falling quickly, and burying her face in her hands.
"I dont need anyone.."

He heard her words, but they did not register, and he knew that he would not heed them. His mind was too focused on the things that had been done to her, done to his friend, and he didn't want to let them happen again.
"You do need help"
He replied quickly, not wanting to be told to stay out of it.
"The damange is done at this point Katta--I already know the secret. I will keep it quiet, I wont tell another soul, but I wont stand by and watch it happen again either"

Katta looked hard at him, not quite understanding. Why would he want to be involved in this? After a moment of awkward silence, she made up her mind, and stated plainly;
"You need to stay out of this, Kamron," she said evenly. "I do not need your help. I only see him four times a year. Christmas, Easter, and Summer. Thats all. He can kill me if he wants. He created my life, he can take it back" she said, remembering the times her father had said that as justification for what he was about to do.
"Do me one favor. Leave now, and go find Rhys. I need to talk to him... Dont come back to see me. Ill see you in the Common Room tomorrow..." Katta looked away, knowing it would probably hurt his feelings.

He did look slightly hurt at the actions. Why Rhys? Why was the other boy allowed while he was not....Rhys didn't even know.
He looked at her, his expression very serious, yet confused and frustrated.
"Its too late to tell me to stay out of it. And I wont stay out of it"
He stood still for a moment, as if thinking. Then he let out a loud sign of still fuming anger and frustration as he turned quickly to leave. He wasn't going to do anything here, so he might as well start his homework. He would just see her and push his point further tomorrow

As Kamron left, Katta immediately began to work on a story. How she was always hurt. Why she never ate. She rubbed her eyes and then kicked off the crisp white sheet that lay aacross her knees. She crossed her legs, and propped her elbows on the ground in front of her, and then placed her chin on the palms of her hands. She winced as she stretched. Yes, the lashes were definitely still there...
What would she say to Kamron? She thought of avoiding him, and then of acting like nothing had happened. She decided on a mix of the two. She did NOT want to remeber letting her secret slip...

A tall but nervous looking first year crept into the room.She had shoulder-length brown hair,and brown horn-rimmed glasses.She was carrying a large black camera and she had a smart look upon her face as she crept over to the large window that faced most of Hogwart's grounds.
However she knew that smartness and studying would get her far in the Maison she was on at that moment.She had checked that Madam Pomfrey had indeed been on her lunch break at that precise time,and had checked earlier that day that no one was in the hospital wing at that time either.
She had also found out which window opened in the hospital.Legolandra had memorized alot before doing her mission,and now was time to do it.
Legolandra moved faster over to the window,but would find out later that that was an unwise move.While speeding up she failed to see the girl in a bed a few meters away.Mere seconds away from completing her job,she nearly fell over when the other girl asked quickly,
"Excuse me?But what are you doing here?"
