A/N: Chapter 1 :D Happy christmas
Warnings: This mentions Snarry
Disclaimer: The only things I own in this fic are the three main characters (Bluefire Noctiluca, Jayne Doe and Sherskul Adler) and the plot line. Sorta. The rest belongs to J.K Rowling (annoyingly -_- there would be a lot more snarry if i owned it, lol)
A/N: sorry it's short, but it was a bitch to write
Enjoy!
"Miss Doe do sit still!" Blue and Sher laughed as Madame Pomfrey scolded their friend, they'd come down to the infirmary to finally have their magical blocks removed, now that Dumbledore had returned after three weeks away for seemingly no reason. Jayne was first up, having volunteered, Blue was next and Sher was last, wanting to watch the process as much as possible. Severus was frowning in the corner, Nathanial on his hip pulling happily at the black hair of the poor man keeping an eye on him. Professors Flitwick and Dumbledore were stood to the side, deep in conversation, evidently trying to figure out how to best remove the blocks.
"Miss Doe…"
The warning sent Blue and Sher into fits of laughter as Jayne scowled, it wasn't her fault that the runes madam Pomfrey was drawing on her arm made her want to flinch away every now and again.
"Sorry Jayne" Sher apologised, pulling out a book "Want me to look at what those runes are for you?"
"No need, dear child!" Dumbledore called, sweeping across to them smiling, Professor Flitwick following quickly behind, their conversation evidently over. "I can explain them for you"
"But professor I'd rather research it for myself"
"Why ever would you want to do that?"
Sher went to say something, but then hung her head
"I don't know Professor Dumbledore sir" She mumbled
Blue stepped forward suddenly
"She likes having something to do"
"Excuse me?" Dumbledore asked, slightly shocked, It was unusual for Blue to speak in public and he hadn't expected her to step in.
"If she doesn't have something to do in a situation she can't control, she can't cope sir, in this case, looking up the meanings of the runes will give her something to do and make her feel like she's helping"
Dumbledore blinked
"Yes, well-"
"Please sir" Sher begged
He sighed
"Very well"
"Thankyou!" She cried, pulling out a parchment and quill and opening the book in front of her. Blue smiled slightly when no one was looking, then as the Professors Dumbledore, Flitwick and madam Pomfrey moved off to talk again, she moved over to Jayne
"Ready?" She whispered
"Not really" Jayne replied with a small smile "But, there isn't any going back now is there?"
"You could always back out?" Sher suggested
"No, then you and Sher would have to wait, I know Sher is desperate to learn magic and I can see in your eyes your excited every time someone mentions it"
"If your not confident we can wait, we don't –"
Blue was cut off by Sher hurrying over, parchment clutched in her hand
"I got it! This one" She pointed at the top rune "protects your magical core from damage, I'm presuming after so many years it could be dangerous for our cores to suddenly release all that magic, so it makes sense"
Blue and Jayne nodded
"This next one, is a magical core detection enhancer, presumably to make it easier for them to find our cores, but other than that I don't see any use for it"
She paused to take a drink
"And the third one is a simple medi magic rune, with simple healing properties"
"Cool" Jayne remarked
"Indeed" Dumbledore smiled from behind Sher making her jump. Blue and Jayne laughed as Sher stood up, scowling.
"Are you ready then Miss Doe?" Madame Pomfrey asked kindly, Jayne smiled nervously
"I guess"
"No need to be nervous now! Miss Adler, Miss Noctiluca I'm going to need you to move back"
Jayne and Blue complied, keeping their eyes on Jayne as Madam Pomfrey and Professors Dumbledore and Flitwick formed a circle around Jayne chanting softly under their breath, Jayne went very still and Sher moved closer to Blue, who put an arm comfortingly around her shoulder.
A blue glow enveloped Jayne and she began to hover off the bed slightly, Severus moved nearer to the two girls.
"Hogwarts magic" He whispered
"What?" Asked Sher, turning slightly
"They're using Hogwarts magic to remove the blocks, it's incredibaly risky, but could shorten the process by-"
Suddenly the blue glow disappeared and Jayne dropped to the bed, The three adults stopped chanting as she let out a high pitched scream, that seemed to make time stand still. Sher and Blue winced simultaneously and Blue tightened her hold around Shers shoulders, eventually though it stopped.
"Did it?" Sher whispered
Madam Pomfrey rushed forward and checked her over, before running her wand down the length of Jayne's body.
"Yes!" She cried "It worked! She'll sleep for a few days, but her magical core is fully unlocked!"
She grinned and gave professor Flitwick a hug, much to the small mans surprise, before turning to the two girls.
"Blue?"
Giving Sher's shoulders a soft squeeze, Blue moved to the bed and allowed Madam Pomfrey to draw the runes down her arm whilst Sher shushed Nathanial, who had been unsettled by Jayne's screams.
"Maybe you should take him out Professor Snape? I'm not sure he'll like watching that again. And besides … I'll need someone to look after him if I'm going to be asleep a while
Blue raised an eyebrow disbelievingly from the bed, since Sher had had Nathanial placed in her arms in the infirmary, she hadn't let him out of her sight, Blue hoped Professor Snape realised how much this meant Sher trusted him.
"Of course SherSkul, I'd be honered to keep an eye on him … are you sure?"
"Of course" She answered, "Just take him, they're starting the ritual on Blue"
Severus stared at Sher for a minuet, before hurrying out as Blue began to scream. After a minuet it was all over though, and it was Sher's turn, with a sigh, she moved to the bed
This better not hurt
