Your Spell On Me (Book 5)

Arthur Weasley Attacked And Hagrid Returns

"Harry," Ron said

"Harry," I said louder waking him up

Something was clearly wrong we took Harry to Dumbledore with the help of McGonagall we get there and Harry explains what has been happing for a few days now.

"In the dream, were you standing next to the victim... or looking down at the scene?" Dumbledore said.

"Neither. It was like I... Will you please just tell me what's happening?" Harry said clearly afraid.

"Everard, Arthur's on guard duty tonight. Make sure he's found by the right people," Dumbledore said to a painting.

"Sir," Said the painting.

"Phineas. You must go to your portrait at Grimmauld Place. Tell them that Arthur Weasley is gravely injured... and his children will be arriving there soon by Portkey," Dumbledore said to another painting.

"They've got him, Albus. It was close, but they think he'll make it. What's more, the Dark Lord failed to acquire it," The first painting said as it returned.

"Oh, thank goodness. Next, we need to..." Dumbledore said but was cut off.

"Look at me! What's happening to me?" Harry said.

"You wished to see me, headmaster?" Snape said appearing.

"Oh, Severus. I'm afraid we can't wait. Not even till the morning. Otherwise, we'll all be vulnerable," Dumbledore said.

I am not sure what happened to Harry he wouldn't tell us but whatever it was he was not happy about it but if we won't tell us it's not like we can force him any way we were at Grimmauld Place for Christmas.

"Here we go. Daddy's back. Sit down, everybody, sit down. That's it. Now, presents. And a nice big box for Ron. Big box for you. And... Fred and George. Come on, open up. I want to see your faces" Mrs Weasley said as she wheeled in a badly injured Arthur and give the others a few presents.

"Yes," Ron said as he pulled out another knitted item of clothing.

"Try it on," Mrs Weasley said

"Thanks, Mum. It's perfect," Ron said not happy but hiding it

"Just what he wanted, actually," Fred teased.

"Yeah. Right. Thanks, Mum," Ron said.

"Come on, then, everybody. Let's clear this away. Oh, Harry, Harry. There you are. Happy Christmas," Mrs Weasley said as she gave harry a small box.

"Thank you," Harry said.

"Lovely to have you with us," Mrs Weasley said.

"Thank you," Harry said again.

"Now, Daddy. Pass that to Daddy," Mrs Weasley said as she passed out drinks to us.

"Thank you," I said.

"Has everybody got? Fred? George? Hermione," Mrs Weasley said.

"A Christmas toast. To Mr Harry Potter... without whom I would not be here," Arthur said.

"Harry," We all said.

"Harry," Sirius said after us.

"That is delicious. I shall be needing some more of that," Arthur said.

"Daddy, don't forget last Christmas," Mrs Weasley said.

"I can't understand why you don't want to wear it, Ronald," Hermione said as we walked off to our rooms for the night.

"I look like a bloody idiot, that's why," Ron said.

"No more than usual, Ron," I said and Hermione giggled.

Later back at Hogwarts Hermione, Rom and I had just received the news that Hagrid was back and we were looking for Harry to tell him and I saw him talking to Cho.

"Harry. Harry. Hagrid's back," I said catching up with him.

"I'm sorry," Harry said as we all ran to Hagrid's hut but Umbridge had got to him first.

"I will say this one last time. I'm ordering you to tell me where you've been," Umbridge said as we listened by a window.

"I told you. I've been away for my health," Hagrid said.

"Your health?" Umbridge said.

"Yeah. Bit of fresh air, you know," Hagrid said.

"Oh, yes. As gamekeeper, fresh air must be difficult to come by. If I were you, I shouldn't get too used to being back. In fact, I mightn't bother unpacking at all," Umbridge said before leaving.

"This is top-secret, right? Dumbledore sent me to parley with the giants," Hagrid said after letting us in as he pressed a piece of cold meat to a cut n his forehead.

"Giants?" Hermione said.

"You found them," I said.

"Well, they're not that hard to find, to be perfectly honest. They're so big, see? I tried to convince them to join the cause. But I wasn't the only one that was trying to win them over," Hagrid said.

"Death Eaters," I said angrily.

"Yes, trying to persuade them to join You-Know-Who," Hagrid said.

"Did they?" Hermione asked.

"I gave them Dumbledore's message. Suppose some of them remember he was friendly to them. I suppose," Hagrid said.

"And they did this to you?" Harry asked referring to the cut on Hagrid's face.

"Not exactly, no. Oh, go on, you have it, then, you dozy dog," Hagrid said giving the meat to fang.

"Things are just getting worse," I said.

"It's changing out there. Just like last time. There's a storm coming, Harry. We'd all best be ready when she does," Hagrid said as we look outside at the clouds growing dark.

"Dumbledore warned Fudge this could happen. He's gonna get us all killed just because that damn coward can't face the truth," I said angrily reading the daily prophet as it talked about the Azkaban escape.

"Harry," Seamus said as Harry came over to us.

"Not again," I said

"I wanted to apologize. Now even me mum says the Prophet's version of things doesn't add up. So, what I'm really trying to say is that I believe you," Seamus said and I was a little surprised but glad he caught on.

"Make it a powerful memory, the happiest you can remember. Allow it to fill you up. Keep trying, Seamus, George, your turn now," Harry said.

"Expecto Patronum," George said.

"A full-bodied Patronus is the most difficult to produce... but shield forms can also be equally useful against a variety of opponents. Fantastic, Ginny," Harry said as Ginny made a full-bodied horse Patronus.

"Not bad," I said.

"Just remember, your Patronus can only protect you for as long as you stay focused. So focus, Luna. Think of the happiest thing you can," Harry said

"Expecto Patronum, I'm trying," Neville said as nothing happened

"This is really advanced stuff, guys. You're doing so well," Harry said

"Expecto Patronum," Me and Hermione both said and the two eagles burst from our wands and soared around the room.

I smiled at her as we both knew what this meant it was great, I knew it was her who had fallen for me as I knew my Patronus was an eagle I had done it once in my aura training.

"I knew you would fall for me sooner or later," I said.

Then the room began to shake and our Patronuses dissipated the room shook a few times and then one of the mirrors began to crack and then smash and Harry went to check.

"I'll make short work of this. Bombarda Maxima," Umbridge said and then blew the wall open.

"Whoa," Nigel yells as the wall was blown open.

"Get them," Umbridge said.
