everyone lets out a breath of relief seeing the twins laying in the hospital but non the less fine

[In the hospital wing the next day, Harry is lying in bed with his arm bandaged. Kat is seen next to him still asleep with a few scratches o her face  He awakens, puts on his glasses, and sits up. There are cards and candy all over. Dumbledore approaches him.]

Dumbledore: Good afternoon, Harry. Ah. Tokens from your admirers?

Harry: Admirers?

Dumbledore: What happened down in the dungeons between you, your sister and Professor Quirrell is a complete secret, so, naturally, the whole school knows. [They both smile.] Ah, I see your friend Ronald has saved you the trouble of opening your Chocolate Frogs.

Harry: Ron was here? Is he all right? What about Hermione? and my sister?

Dumbledore: Fine. They're both just fine. your sister is still asleep but fine

Harry: But, what happened to the Stone?

Dumbledore: Relax, dear boy. The stone has been destroyed. My friend Nicholas and I had a little chat and agreed it was best all around.[Kat stirred awake and her eyes widen at the amount of gifts around her but one caught her eye a small stuffed white snake she grabbed it and smiled before looking at Dumbledore and her brother] ah good evening Ms. Potter yes many gifts from your admirers aswell 

"I still have the snake by the way Draco"

"Really after 5 years?"

"oh now we know who it came from you two are really good at keeping your friendship secret you know this right?"

"oh we are aware if we didn't want you to know you would have never known simple as that"

Harry: But Flamel, he'll die, won't he?

Dumbledore: [sits on the bed.] He has enough Elixir to set his affairs in order. But yes, he will die.

Harry: How is it we got the Stone, sir? One minute we were staring in the mirror, and the next...

Dumbledore: Ah. You see, only a person who wanted to find the Stone, find it, but not use it, would be able to get it. That is one of my more brilliant ideas. And between you and me that's saying something.

Harry: Does that mean, with the Stone gone, I mean, that Voldemort can never come back? [Kat looks lost in thought throughout all this something wrong, why would flamel let the stone be destroyed surely he would simply ask for it back and lock it up?]

Dumbledore: Ah, I'm afraid there are ways in which he can return. Harry, do you know why Professor Quirrell couldn't bear to have you touch him? [Harry shakes his head.] It was because of your mother. She sacrificed herself for you, and that kind of act leaves a mark. [The twins touches their scars.] No, no, this kind of mark cannot be seen. It lives in your very skin.

Harry: What is it?

Dumbledore: Love, twins, love. [Pats Harry's head gently and stands up.] Ah. Bertie Bott's Every Flavor Beans. I was most unfortunate in my youth to come across a vomit flavored one, and since then I have lost my liking for them. But I think I could be safe with a nice toffee...[takes brown bean and eats it.] Mm. Alas. Earwax.

[Harry with his arm still bandaged and Kat with a bruise on her cheek enter a corridor where up on a stairwell balcony, Hermione and Ron are talking. They stop when they see Harry and Kat and lean over the railing.]
