My heart was thumping hard inside my chest

My heart was thumping hard inside my chest. You think I would be more prepared for this. All that hard word at Uagadou had really payed off. But I still couldn't shake the butterflies in my stomach. I was going to see everyone again. I was going to see my cousin, my friends, I was going to see him. I wondered how they all felt. Maybe they hated me for leaving. Maybe they replaced me.

I was worried sick, standing in front of kings Cross station. I took in a deep breath and walked in. I was overwhelmed with the familiar smell. I walked over to in between platform 9 and 10.

I griped my cart tight and ran towards the wall. I passed right through and ended up running into someone.
"Ow!" The boy said.
"I'm really sorry!" I looked over to see who I hit. I was greeted by a familiar ginger.
"Ron!" I squealed.
"Eddie?" I pulled him into a huge hug.
"I missed you!"
"I missed you too."
"Where's Harry and Hermione?"
"On the train already. Here, I'll show you." Ron grabbed my hand and pulled me into the train. He lead me to a compartment with a sleeping man, my bushy haired best friend, and the raven haired boy I missed the most.
"Harry!" I screamed. I pounced onto him, choking him half to death.
"Edelen!" He said, hugging me tighter. He buried his Head into my hair.
"I've missed you so much. Don't leave again."
"I promise. I'll never leave again." I promised. I meant it. I never wanted to leave.
"Not to interrupt anything, but Sirus Black has escaped from Askaban." Ron chimed in.

My heart dropped. I couldn't breathe all of a sudden. I felt weak and couldn't hold my own weight. I was still hugging Harry, he caught me before I collapsed onto the ground. I felt sick. I was about to vomit.
"No, n-n-n-n-no. No. No. That can't be right. Ron tell me you're messing with me."
"I'm sorry. It's true."
"Edelen, you don't look too well." Harry said with worry in his eyes.
"Harry, my murderous father has broke free from Askaban. He coming to kill you Harry. My father." I managed to whisper.

I pull my legs to my chest and lean into Harry, squishing him into the corner. I couldn't rap my head around it.

About halfway through the train ride, the train suddenly stopped. It went cold and ridged.
"Bloody Hell." Ron said. He held his hand up to the window. The window frosted over.
"Something out there." He said. His voice coated with pure terror.

A hand with long, bony, fingers started to pull the door to our compartment back. All the happiness was drained from me. I knew the feeling. There were dementors on the train. I was not going to let the hurt my friends.

I morphed into my animagus form. In my place was a beautiful Phoenix. I looked at my friends as they stared at me as I flapped my wings. The dementor entered the compartment.

I flapped my wings at it, trying to shoo it away. It raised its hand and hit me out of the air and started feeding on Harry. I felt a huge pain on my side, but I did t have time to care. I got back up and squawked at it. It attention left Harry and was now turned towards me.

I flew in front on Harry to protect him. The sleeping man in the corner woke up and took out his wand.
"Expecto Patronum!" He yelled. A whisp of white light came out of the mans wand and form a sort of shield. The dementor flew away. I morphed back into a human, I had a huge cut on my side. I was panting and out of breath.

I was more worried about Harry, who was unconscious. He looked so peaceful. I crawled over to him.
"Edelen! Your bleeding!" Hermione yelled. I waved it off.
"I'm fine. Don't worry about me." I ensured her.
"You are not fine! There's a huge Gashe on you side!" I started to feel light headed.
"Hermione.." I whispered
"My dear! You need medical attention!" Said the man.
"I'm.... fine..."
"We need to get to Hogwarts quick!"
"Harry..."
"He'll wake up. We need to help you. Here, lay down. I'll go find someone to help you." I gave him a weak nod.

I somehow stayed conscious when The man was gone. Harry was still out. The Man came back with some bandages.
"I'm Prof. Lupin, by the way. New DADA teacher."
"He's awake!" Hermione yelled. Everyone, except me, gathered around him.
"Harry, Harry." Hermione said shaking him. I couldn't really hear what they were saying. It was really muffled. Next thing I heard was
"Edelen! Oh my god! Your, your, your bleeding!"
"I'm... Fine... Harry..." I said. Touching my hand to his cheek. I gave him a weak smile. He returned a sad smile.
"Edelen, your going to be ok."Harry promised. He went to walk to the other seat, but I grabbed his hand.
"Stay."
"I will." He lift me slightly and put my head on his lap.
"Don't worry, your going to be ok. Though, I have a lot of questions for you. They can wait until later." Of course Harry had questions. I didn't expect him not too.

We arrived at hogwarts and I was rushed to the hospital wing. Harry refused to leave my side. Madam Pomfry healed the cut but I would have to stay the night. She shooed Harry out the room and told me to go to bed.

There was still an ache in my side, but it wasn't as intense as before. I had to sleep flat on my back or I couldn't sleep at all.

I eventually did fall asleep. When I woke up, I was surrounded by candy and cards and balloons. Beside me, Harry was sitting there asleep. I smiled and poked his head.
"Potter." I poked his head again.
"Potter." I said again. He made a little snort sound and woke up.

"What? Huh? Oh, hey Edelen."
"What are you doing here?" Harry flushed a deep red.
"Well, I-I-I just thought, well, maybe,
I was just," I started laughing.
"Your adorable." I said poking his nose. He blushed an even deeper red.
"So, when are you getting out of here?"
"Maybe today, I don't know for sure."
"Actually," Madam Pomfry chimed in,
"You can leave if you want. You should be all healed." Harry smirked.
"C'mon, I have questions, remember?"
----------------------------------------------
Edelens animagus is a Phoenix! I thought it fit her personality really well.

She's never been tethered to the ground, she wants to sore free. She wants to spread her wings and fly.

She's also very confident, brave, and head strong. She's willing to help anyone and everyone and always tries to fight other people's battles.
