Welcome To Hogwarts (OFFICIAL STORY!)

Chapter 40

Ella and Holly struggled along with Daciano, and Ella spotted a bench outside the Charms classroom.

"Put him down here-quick," she puffed, and Holly, red faced nodded. Carrying the full grown man was harder than it sounded, and they both struggle to keep their strength for a moment before rolling him heavily onto the bench. A moan escaped his lips.

"Oh jeez," Holly closed her eyes for a second then was straight into trying to help. "Check his pulse and breathing rate."

Ella laid a hand on his chest as Holly check his wrist. "He's breathing almost normally... but..."

Ella pushed gently on his side and cursed. "Crap, broken ribs. Hel me roll him over onto his side."

They rolled him over onto the side with the broken ribs and Ella mad sure the side he wasn't laying on was alright. The snapped ribs were likely to have punctured a lung, and, had he been allowed to breathe through it, it would have collapsed his diaphragm. I like to think I add some educational content

"Reducto!" Holly said, and blasted the legs off the bench. "Wing Gardium Leviosa!"

"Good thinking," Ella told her, and they shared a momentary smile, all misgivings forgotten. Ella used a severing charm on her robes and ripped a long strip off them. While Holly floated the 'stretcher', Ella fastened Daciano to the bench tightly, cutting off all breath from the punctured lung.

The proceeded down the corridor quickly, and Holly suddenly burst out as if she couldn't help it. "Did you see? I didn't muck up any of the charms! I did it!"

"Pressure does strange things to everyone," Ella said wisely, then added. "Not that you being able to do spells is strange- I didn't mean it like that."

Suddenly they turned a corner, and there, standing in the middle of the corridor with his hands pressed to his lips was-

"Pretty Boy," Ella said very conscious of the fact that her robes were practically split in two at the side. "What are you doing?"

For the first time Ella had seen him Alec was lost for words. She could feel Holly trying to shrink herself down behind her. Suddenly, as though he'd made up his mind he shook his head and said, "None of your business."

He stalked off, leaving Ella completely confused. "Well that's odd."

"C'mon, let's go," Holly urged, and they set off again.

Ella was worried, but she still remained confident. She was in her zone, the time when someone was in trouble and she had that rush, so different to the rush of Anton or the tattoo.

With the Star tattoo she felt fast, speedy. The time Anton had touched her she'd felt dependent on it and completely icy and full of pleasure. This rush was proper adrenaline, and she felt strong, sure and unstoppable.

They burst into the Hospital Wing to see a bewildered Madame Pomfrey. She immediately took Daciano off them, and over to a sick bed. She tutted at Ella's crude bandage. "Stretcher- muggle technology should have been brought straight to me."

Ella and Holly were both so angry that they couldn't even say 'He WAS.' But the matron was already clearing up the DADA teachers head wounds, so they shut their mouths and stayed grateful.

"Switch- I'll need the Skele-grow from my cupboard, Bond, you can go."

Ella rushed out to tell the others that the teacher was okay.

Brin watched as Ella ran out of the Hospital Wring doors. "What's Happening?"

"She kicked me out and sent Holly to go find something to help him."

Brin looked around her at all of the faces who were looking at her for the next step. There auras were all blue and green and Brin noticed their marks had stopped glowing. "We've done everything we could do tonight. I think it be best if we go back to are common rooms and rest. We all know are assignments and what we’re going to do so were all going to be well rested."

Everyone nodded and they said there good byes. Slowly everyone walked off in different directions, some by themselves some with others. Brin was left alone with Ella. "I'm going to wait for Holly." Ella said.

"You sure?"

"Yeah. We need to talk."

"Ok." Brin started to move away but she stopped and turned to her friend. "I'm really happy your back. " She quickly patted her shoulder before walking towards the Hufflepuff common room and the bed that she knew waited for her.

Skyla ran to the HW carrying Nathan. She busted in, her bleeding from the head and Nathan bleeding from the ribs. "Guys!! Shade. Shadows. Nathan was hit by my dad because he didn't want to be in the group anymore...* falls to the ground lying next to Nathan like the Ying and Yang sign*

Callie stormed through the door of the dormitory and collapsed onto her bed. She sat up again, glaring at Steph who sat sheepishly on her own. "Urgh!" She screamed hoarsely, collapsing once again.

"I can't BELIEVE you!" Callie ran her fingers through her hair, totally stressed, "Why? WHY did you come after me?"

"Well I-"

Callie didn't stop. "What did you think it was going to ACHEIVE? I mean thats stalkerish! How could you even.. Urgh! WHAT is Allie gonna say..." Callie looked at Steph, and winced a little.

"Who's Allie?"

Brin laid awake as she tried to calm her mind to sleep. Charlotte light snore were the only thing that could be heard in the room. Brooklynn wasn't back yet and Brin had found out that Cat had wanted a room by herself. This more than anything that had happened that day made Brin's mind not rest.

She couldn't help but think Cat didn't want to be in their room because of her. Brin had thought that Cat was different then many of the other Hufflepuff, but she must have been wrong. The pain of not fitting in once again shot thought Brin’s heart. She hadn't felt this way since she came to Hogwarts this year and she remembered how it felt every night she had been in the room by herself last year.

What it had felt like to have all the other girls ask the headmistress to make her change room, just because she was physic. Just because she couldn't read into their future, or as they had put it were afraid that she could. Brin however knew the real reason was because being a physic meant she could read people. Their emotions and see what they really are. That was what scared people, that was why she was kicked out.

Did Cat feel the same way as those other girl, but was just to nice at the time to say it? These thoughts were going though Brin’s brain. Brin stood up, and tripped as she climbed out of bed making her way to the door. She walked downstairs and looked around for the one person she knew would understand what she was feeling.

He however wasn't in the common room, no one was so Brin made her way to the boys side of the snuck her way in.
