After requesting Severus to come with him, an out of breath Theo hurried out of the Great Hall with Severus and Lily following him. Dumbledore, Minerva, Poppy, Filius, Remus, and Pomona followed them to the second floor.
"Are you kids alright?" Lily asked stepping around Severus and going over to Harry and his friends.
Harry nodded. "We're just shocked by finding Mrs. Norris like this."
Dumbledore's face hardened. "Which one of you stunned Mrs. Norris and which one wrote that threat on the wall?"
"Don't be ridiculous, Albus," Minerva snapped. "None of them have even learned the stunning spell."
"Yes, I haven't even taught it to the fifth years yet," Remus added.
"And all of them are too short to have written that as up as high as it is, even Mr. Flint," Pomona finished.
"I don't think she's dead, Sir," Marcus said to Severus, ignoring Dumbledore's accusations. "Rigor mortis doesn't usually affect the tail. Maybe someone stupefied her."
Severus took out his wand, pointed it at Mrs. Norris and said, "Rennervate!" When nothing happened, he put his wand away and turned to Albus, "I believe she has been petrified, but how I have no idea."
At that moment Mr. Filch was attempting to make his way through the crowd of students who had followed the professors from the Great Hall. "Get out of my way! Move aside!" He snarled as he shoved through them. He stopped suddenly as he spotted Mrs. Norris hanging from the torch holder and screeched, "Mrs. Norris!" He looked around him menacingly. "Who did this? Who killed Mrs. Norris?" He launched himself at Ron and Seamus who backed away looking frightened. "I know it was you two. You hated her!"
"Take it easy Mr. Filch," Severus advised. "She is not dead, but she has been petrified."
"I want to see some punishment for this! I want justice for Mrs. Norris!" Mr. Filch screeched again.
"Professor Sprout has an excellent crop of mandrakes this year and once they are ready, they will be made into the Mandrake Restorative Draught and given to Mrs. Norris," Severus explained.
Pomona nodded and smiled. "The second years repotted them a month ago and they're doing very well." She patted Mr. Filch's arm reassuringly. "You'll have Mrs. Norris back in no time, Argus."
While Mrs. Norris was dispatched to the hospital and placed in her bed which Mr. Filch brought from his quarters to Madam Pomfrey's office; the kids were sent back to their houses to finish the feast there while four professors worked to clean the threat off the wall and get rid of the water on the floor.
"Somebody needs to have a talk with Myrtle about her constantly flooding the corridor whenever she's upset," Professor McGonagall remarked looking at the inch of water on the floor.
"Well, if you want to volunteer, Minerva, you have my vote," Professor Sinistra replied, casting a Scourgify at the wall and waving her wand in a scrubbing motion over the writing.
"You have my sympathy," Madam Hooch added, waving her wand over the water. "Evanesco."
"Exaresco," Filius said casting a drying spell on the corridor floor. "Perhaps I should speak with her as she was in my house."
Once the corridor was dry and the threat had been scrubbed off the wall, the professors returned to their quarters or offices.
Harry sat with his dad and mum in his dad's quarters. He hadn't said anything about hearing the voice again in front of the headmaster, but decided he'd better tell his dad now. "I heard this voice and it was saying it was hungry, needed blood, and wanted to kill. I heard it for the first time the first week of school, but I didn't hear it again until tonight. I was following it because it sounded like it was coming from all around me and that's how we ended up on the second floor and found Mrs. Norris."
"Why didn't you say anything after the first time you heard it, Harry?" Severus asked gently.
Harry made a face. "Because the first time I heard it I was with Draco and Greg and they couldn't hear it and this time nobody else heard it either besides me. I guess with the headmaster believing that I'm going to be the next dark lord; I was afraid to admit I was hearing a voice nobody else can hear."
"Oh sweetie!" Lily said pulling him into a tight hug. "If you're the only one hearing this voice then there has to be a good reason for it and we're going to find out what it is."
"You do not need to listen to anything the headmaster says either. I think after leading the battle to fight Voldemort all those years; I do wonder if he has not suffered some kind of break with reality."
"What do you think happened to Mrs. Norris, Dad?" Harry asked. He was content to remain in his father's quarters being comforted by his parents. "And what's the Chamber of Secrets that's supposedly been opened?"
"At first I thought someone had cast a Petrificus Totalus on her and that is why I tried the counter, but when it did not work and I saw how stiff she was including her tail; I knew she'd been petrified. As to the Chamber of Secrets I have never heard of it." He looked at Lily who shook her head.
"I've never heard of it until tonight and I don't know of any spell or curse that petrifies permanently so that you need the Mandrake Restorative Draught to return them to normal."
