Out of The Shadows (Golden Trio Era) {1}

Into The Unknown Pt2

They landed on a black plant, "Devil's Snare." Dumbledore informed Mikayla the name of the plant. She knew exactly what to do "Lumos Solem," They fell to the ground, "Well Done, Miss O'Brien, onto the next chamber." Dumbledore spoke proudly, the sound of wings flapping filled Mikayla's hears. "Ok, beyond on the door is a lot of winged keys and a broomstick. You're going to try and catch an old key, it's wings probably will be damaged because others have past true." Dumbledore informs and instructs Mikayla about the next task. They opened the door, Dumbledore rushed over to the other door, Mikayla grabs the broom and heads straight for the key Dumbledore described. The other keys swarmed her, trying to prevent the real key's capture. After a minute or two, Mikayla caught the key, threw it to Dumbledore and once the door was opened, she flew out of the room. "PROFESSOR! Harry went on alone, Ron got hurt and he sent me back to take care of him." Hermione gives them a brief on the recent events. Mikayla ran to Ron's side, "Have you tried waking him?" Mikayla asked Hermione who nodded, "Magically?" Mikayla inquired, Hermione shook her head no. "Can you help Dumbledore through the next chamber? I'll wake up Ron and we can both bring him up to Madam Pomfrey when you get back." Mikayla programmed. Hermione said she'll do anything to help, she leads Dumbledore through to the next chamber. Mikayla took her wand out again pointing it at Ron chest, "Rennervate." Ron's eyes shot open, Mikayla's hand was on his chest to ensure he didn't sit up to quickly. "Ok, Ron I'm going to ask you some questions, okay?" Mikayla spoke calmly, "Okay."

"What's your full name?" Mikayla quizzes, "Ronald Bilius Weasley." Ron responded, "And what's your date of birth?" Mikayla inquired, "March 1st, 1980." He recalled, "And Where do you live?" Mikayla continued the interrogation, "The Burrow, Ottery St Catchpole, Devon, England." Ron spoke assuringly, "And Finally, What's my name?" Mikayla asked, "Mikayla Alina O'Brien." Ron slowly sat up, "Well the good news is, you're not concussed or suffering from any type of amnesia. Unfortunately, you're pretty cut up, so I'll bring you to Madam Pomfrey once Hermione comes back." Mikayla spoke slowly and clearly to ensure Ron heard what she was saying, "What about Harry?" Ron seemed worried as he questioned the whereabouts of his best mate. "Dumbledore is here, Hermione is helping him with the next chamber and then he'll be able to help Harry." Mikayla informed him, he nodded. "Ron, you're conscious!" Hermione voice echoed in the chamber with happiness. "Hermione, I need you to help me lift Ron to his feet slowly, we don't want to hurt him any further." Mikayla instructed, Hermione rushes over, they both lifted Ron using his underarm, he stumbles slightly but soon had full control over what he was doing.

"Let's go." Mikayla ordered, Ron's arms were wrapped around Mikayla and Hermione's shoulders. They make their way through the chambers, once the reached the Devil's snare, Ron doubted them getting out. "Ok, the spell we each have to use is ascendio pointing towards the door." Mikayla instructed, "but first, Accio Guitar." Mikayla's guitar fell into the trap door right into Mikayla's hands. "I'll go first, to put Fluffy to sleep. Then Ron, and then you Hermione, ok?" Ron and Hermione nodded, "Ascendio." Mikayla flew upwards through the trap door. She played the instrumental of 'Somewhere Over The Rainbow.' Ron shot up and held onto Mikayla's shoulder for support, Hermione followed, holding onto to Ron to keep him up, the three of them walk towards the door and walk down to the hospital wing. Madam Pomfrey wasn't very pleased with them, but helped them all the same. Dumbledore arrived with Harry in his arm's stiffly, the three conscious friends swapped worried exchanges, "Don't worry you three, Harry is going to be just fine." Dumbledore assured them. Mikayla and the others attempt to go to sleep, Mikayla is the only on who failed as her brain recalled the night. Madam Pomfrey followed Dumbledore out of her office, "I'm keeping them all here for the next couple of days to make sure they're ok. Well done Albus using the Reviving Charm on the Weasley boy, he'll recover a lot quicker than he would've if he were still unconscious when he got here." Madam Pomfrey congratulated Dumbledore, "Actually Madam Pomfrey, it was Miss O'Brien who had performed that charm, I was busy trying too help Harry." Dumbledore credited Mikayla, "A first year? Perform that spell. Not a chance, no way." Madam Pomfrey said stubbornly, "Yes, but this first year just so happens to be the daughter of the head of the Spell Damage Department in St. Mungo's." Dumbledore informs Madam Pomfrey, who nods comfortingly. "Suppose it runs through her blood." Madam Pomfrey whispered.

A week later, Mikayla, Ron and Hermione were let leave the hospital wing, they bumped into Neville while walking to lunch. The three of them prepared to apologise profusely to him for the events of the other night, but Neville smiled at them. "Sorry for trying to stop you, I didn't know you were stopping you-know-who from coming back." Neville apologised, how did he know what happened while they were sleeping. "McGonagall came to the tower the other morning and told us what you three and Harry were up to that night. And of course, it spread like wildfire to the other houses." Neville distinguished their confusion. "Where's Harry?" Neville looked around, "He's still resting, Madam Pomfrey said he'll be released before dinner tonight for the end-of-year feast." Mikayla informed him, he nodded before walking away. The three friends stood there for a second, Mikayla looked up at the house points and saw Gryffindor in last place still. Ron's stomach growled loudly, "Let's eat, I'm starving." The three of them rushed to the Great Hall, slowly walking to their seats as whispers followed them. Once at the table, they sat down and began to ingest large quantities of delicious food. "I feel like I haven't eating in a year." Mikayla spoke, after emptying her plate and refilling it. She received grunts and moans as a response indicating Ron and Hermione felt the same way. It was rather peaceful where they sat, maybe because no one knew how to act or what would be appropriate to ask. Mikayla felt a tap on her shoulder as she continued to horse food into her mouth. She paused slightly, turned around, and was faced by the Weasley twins and Percy, "McGonagall told us how you helped Ron and we wanted to thank you both." Percy spoke to both Mikayla and Hermione, "Well we weren't going to leave him there after sacrificing himself so Harry could keeping going." Hermione stated rather upset that she needed to be thanked for saving a friend. "Yeah, that was very cool of you, Ron, we might even start admitting you're our brother now." George spoke jokingly smiling at Ron, who's face was filled with food. "We'll leave you be. Thanks again." Fred spoke this time, his eyes stuck on Mikayla's, "if you're still hungry you can join us." Mikayla spoke quickly, the three smiled before walking around the table and sitting across from Ron, Hermione and Mikayla. The six of them ate quietly, just enjoying each other's presence, no one else approached them or tried to talk to them, and once they were on the stage of popping they walked up to the Gryffindor common room.
