Aang felt the long dark hair retract into his head, as he felt the back of his neck rest against dirt and twigs. He opened his eyes, and felt a great deal of pain on his right arm. He looked down at it, and saw that his right wrist had a small cut, but he was bleeding badly. He pulled water out of thin air and immediately covered the wound, as he used his elbows to lean up.

He was sitting in a small opened area, trees surrounding him, as he saw birds flying from tree to tree. He looked right, and saw Katara struggling to get on her hands and knees, as Bao put his hand on his forehead. Meanwhile, a few feet away, Harry and Hermione were crawling towards Ron frantically, as blood spread over the left side of his body.

Katara was on her feet first, charging over to Ron and pulling water from her pouch, as Hermione said "Harry, quickly, in my bag, there's a bottle labeled 'Essence of Dittany'-!" "KATARA!" Aang whirled around; Sokka was frantically waving them over, as he pointed down towards the pale faced Iroh. He also had blood spreading down his body, as some of it colored his gray beard crimson.

Katara charged over towards Iroh, as Harry pointed his wand into Hermione's small bag and said "Accio Dittany!" A small bottle zoomed from the bag, as Katara frantically covered Iroh with water, which began to glow blue at the touch. Harry pulled opened the small bottle before handing it to Hermione, who began to place three drops over Ron's wounds. After there was a haze of greenish smoke, the blood disappeared, and the wound looked a few days old.

Aang charged over to Katara, as the blue light faded. She pulled the water off of Iroh, and the long cut had been healed, but his leg was hanging at an odd angle. "I'm sure he'll be able to set that right" said Katara, as they went towards the others. "Is Iroh all right?" Hermione asked. "His leg isn't" said Katara. "But, he taught Molly how to heal Yukio, so I'm sure he could heal himself." "Right" said Hermione, as they looked down at the unconscious Ron.

"Why are we here?" Bao asked, shaking the leaves off of his over long robes. "Why aren't we at Grimmauld Place?" Hermione looked close to tears. "I don't think we can go back there. When we Disapparated, Yaxley grabbed hold of me and I couldn't get rid of him, and when we got there, he loosened his grip, and I could get rid of him, but I brought him into the Fidelius Charm's protection. I gave him the secret."

Harry's head dropped, as Aang saw the pain in the boy wizard's eyes. Surely, Yaxley must have gotten into Grimmauld Place, but hopefully Kreacher got out of there. "I'm so sorry!" Hermione cried. "None of this was your fault" said Harry. 'If anything, it's mine..." And he withdrew the eye of Mad-Eye Moody. Aang raised his eyebrows, as Katara threw her hand over her mouth. "It's my fault" said Bao. "If I hadn't been so stupid when I got you and Iroh, Aang, we could've gotten out of there." "It's not your fault" said Aang. "They couldn't raise the alarm in time. They knew we were there by then."

Bao still looked down in anger, as Ron opened his eyes. "Where are we?" "The forest where they held the World Cup" said Hermione. "First place I thought of..." "D'you reckon we should move on?" Ron asked. "No" said Ang. "We should stay here for now, but not for long. We just need to rest up. Then, maybe we could get out of here."

They all looked at him for a moment, before Katara asked "Did you get it? The case?" Aang looked at her, and shook his head. "It got destroyed" said Bao. "By Combustion Man. When we were fleeing, he managed to blow it up." There was a moments silence, before Ron asked "So, that's it then? Dumbledore left that case, but now it's destroyed?" Aang looked at him, and nodded, a saddened expression on his face. "Whatever Dumbledore wanted with that case is gone" he said.

They went silent for a moment, before Hermione stood up, and said "Katara, come and help me with the protection charms...Harry, you could get the tent..." "Tent?" Harry asked. "In the bag!" 'In the...of course" said Harry. He summoned the tent from the bag, before Hermione pointed her wand at it and said "Erecto!" and it immediately formed.
