Chapter 10
In Romania:
It was about 1:30 A.M and the alarms started going off, that meant a dragon had some how got loose and for Charlie he knew exactly which one it was, the new mother dragon they had got about a week ago, she was a nasty one and seemed to have it in from him. Every time Charlie would pass by her habitat it would lunge and meet the chain on its neck.
Normally they didn't like to trap and encage the dragon but they did it if the dragon seemed too aggressive. This was exactly the case here.
She came in with an infant dragon who was sick, and they were doing everything they could to nurse it back to health, but they had to keep her separated from her mother, due the illness was contagious and very deadly, Charlie of course got the job of taking the infant away.
Charlie sat up straight in his bed and quickly got dressed, ran down the hall way to see Ginny, Harry, Ron, and Hermione already headed outside. Once outside you could see the flames escaping the rampaging dragons' mouth.
She was a fierce, she was a mixed breed, a Hungarian horntail and a Norwegian ridgeback, and had twice the temper but the most deadly thing about her was the Deadly poison ness spikes on her tail.
She was running around the camp setting everything on fire, knocking over stables, and there was only one thing she was looking for, her baby.
Charlie ran and caught up with Harry and Ron who were grabbing chains and trying to set up the magically cage for her to be entrapped in, once she was in the cage, she couldn't blow fire or break the cage, it was their only hope to get her in there.
"If we get her backed in the one corner, the cage behind her, you guys could throw the chains around her mouth while I try to get the cage open, let's go, move out!!!" Charlie commanded to the rest of the dragon tamers who had gathered at Charlie's orders.
Charlie, Harry, Ron, and about 10 other dragon tamers went running to try to catch the rampageous beast, hoping they would get her in time before any one got hurt. But obviously luck was not on there side tonight.
Harry and Ron with chains in hand took to circling to the side of her, while the others were backing her in the corner where Charlie was trying to get the cage open. The dragon roared loudly, stomping and breathing heavy, smoke billowing out of her flared nostrils. She seemed to heard some one behind her and turned to see Charlie which only enraged her more, she stormed to him and hit him in the head with one of her front clams which landing him 50 feet away and a gash on his head, She followed him ignoring the other who got the cage open while Harry and Ron swung the chains around her mouth, about twenty men grabbed the chains and pulled her away from Charlie but not before she got a chance to hit him in his stomach with those poison ness spike, sending him about 150 feet in the air, that landed him with a loud, bone crushing, thump.
Harry, Ron, Ginny, and Hermione all screamed, "Charlie!"
Ron and Harry snapped into action and pulled, hard with the other finally getting her in the cage and locking it. Harry and Ron looked to the other, who nodded at them, with that Harry and Ron hauled ass across the grounds to the Medics tent where Ginny and Hermione had taken Charlie.
When they got there Hermione and Ginny already had him in the emergency room and were working frantically trying to save their favorite brother.
He was bad, He had a deep gash that was right above his right eye the whole was down the cranium, Both of his legs were broken, on arm was smashed, he had smaller cuts all over his body, internal injuries done to his organs and arteries, but the worst was the deep lesion across his stomach, it was deep and bleeding badly, Hermione cast a blood clotting spell but all it did was slow it down not stop it like it was suppose to, the poison in the spikes probably had a blood thinner in it to make it's victims bleed out, and there was no antidote for the poison due to it being so new, the were working on it just hadn't found the cure yet.
Ginny sighed, with tears in her eyes and looked to Hermione and said helplessly, "We did everything we could; I don't know what else to try."
Hermione who had tears of her own in her eyes said, "I III don't know, this dragon is new here and we really don't know how that poison works, so I don't know what to try."
Ginny's head shot up and said, "DRAGON!"
Hermione not catching on said, "Yeah you were there it hit him…….oh KATHLEEN."
Ginny nodded and headed for the door saying, "Stay right here I'm be back with help."
With that Ginny was out the door right past Harry and Ron who were pacing by the door, she ran down the hall to the fireplace, dropped to her knees and yelled, "THE BURROW."
Mean while at the burrow Kathleen was spending the night again, it seemed she was doing a lot of that lately. Kathleen would spend her nights talking to Mrs. Weasley about everything, even her family that died in America, how she missed Ginny and Hermione. Mrs. Weasley would sit there listening to her and sharing her own feeling about how she worried constantly about her family, and how lonely she got during the day when no one was here. Kathleen understood her and Mrs. Weasley understood Kathleen.
This night was no different the were sitting on the couch, Mrs. Weasley in her house coat, and Kathleen in her white, silk night gown, Mrs. Weasley was brushing Kathleen's hair, it seemed Mrs. Weasley was the same as her daughter, playing with Kathleen's hair relaxed her, they just couldn't sleep tonight so they had met down stairs, And started to talk.
Mrs. Weasley had taken out the braid and was combing out the knots while they talked about the family and how Alicia and Angelina were making progress in their pregnancies, when they heard the sound of the floo.
Being about 2 in the morning they thought it was the girls telling Kathleen they were ready but when they got to the fire place they seen Ginny tears running down her face.
"What happen?" Mrs. Weasley asked but somehow already knowing.
"Their was an accident tonight, Charlie was attacked by a new breed of dragon and we can't heal him." But that was all she got out as Kathleen walked over and said, "I'm coming through."
"I'll go get your father and we'll be there shortly." Mrs. Weasley stated while heading up the stairs.
Kathleen stepped through the fire and hugged Ginny, and said, "Where is he?"
"This way." Ginny said while running down the hall Kathleen right behind her, The boys not far behind, still trying to figure out what was going on but all they got was a, "Don't worry Kathleen can take care of it." Hermione told them then shut the door behind her.
When Kathleen was in the room the sight before her made her physically sick, Her love was laying on the bed cut all over him, and two big gashes, one on his head the other on his abdomen.
Kathleen took a shaky breath and said, "You've tried everything." At the girls' nod. Kathleen sighed she may be a dragon healer and a strong one but she knew Charlie was dieing and fast, she didn't know what to do, she didn't know if she could save the only man she had ever loved.
Tears started to come to her eyes, she thought fast of someway, ANY way, she could save him, then it hit her there was an ancient spell she could do but she needed the 'GOD OF ALL DRAGONS, Draconious himself, it was dangerous the spell and calling upon Draconious. But she would do it for him.
Kathleen turned to Ginny and Hermione and said, "I am going to call upon Draconious, it will be dangerous, but I need his help with the spell, do you want to stay or leave?"
"We're staying." Hermione and Ginny said determination shining in their eyes.
"Very well but when I began do not interrupt, I will not hurt Charlie I can promise you that, but if you interrupt the ceremony it could kill him and me, do you understand." Kathleen told them seriously, but both girls just nodded and locked the door, putting silencing charms on the room.
Kathleen nodded to them and stepped up to the side of Charlie's bed, she closed her eyes and started to talk in another language Hermione and Ginny had never heard before.
She was saying:
"I call upon The Great One, I call upon The Lord of all Dragons, and I call upon you Draconious."
"I call upon thee for thy Great power, I call upon thee for thy Infinite Wisdom, I call upon thee for thy Vast Knowledge, and I call upon thee for thy Astonishing Guidance."
"And lastly I call upon thee for thy help, please come to me as I call upon you as your servant."
Ginny and Hermione watched Kathleen stood with her eyes closed while she chanted. Then something happened that had both girls watching in awe as a bright blue flaming ball the size of a hippogriff came down through the ceiling and stood on the other side of the bed, the light was to bright to make out a shape.
As it landing and seemed to float, Kathleen opened her eyes and seen the bright light but she didn't back down, and then it spoke in a deep baritone and in the same tongue that Kathleen had use earlier and said, "Who is it that calls upon my power, who is it that calls upon my wisdom, who is it that calls upon my knowledge, who is it that calls upon my guidance, and who is it that calls upon me for help, and why?"
The voice could be none other that Draconious himself.
"It was I who called upon you, Great One, I am your servant and I need your help, I want to perform a healing spell but can not do so with out you." Kathleen bowed
"I see and what spell is it?" He asked.
"Mens mentis corpus corporis pectus animus debeo infinitas infinitio." Kathleen told him confidently.
"Ah yes, I see why you have called upon me then …And I trust you know the …terms and consequences of said spell." Draconious asked her hesitantly.
"I do." Kathleen replied boldly.
"So be it, I give you my knowledge, wisdom, guidance, and power ….. We must join now to start the spell..." He said.
Kathleen nodded and closed her eyes.
Hermione and Ginny watched from across the room and the Blue ball of fire shot into Kathleen, the force of it should have knocked her across the room but Kathleen held her ground.
All at once as Kathleen and Draconious's power united Kathleen burst into blue flames, white light shooting from her, her hair whipping around her wildly as being blown by an unknown breeze but there was none. The fire did not hurt her but seemed to give her energy. Finally Kathleen opened her eyes which smoldered with the same blue flame, as she breathed; smoke came from her mouth and nose.
The girls were going to interrupt due to Kathleen's safety but her words rang in their head, it could kill them, which caused the girls to back up against the wall.
Kathleen looked down at Charlie and smiled lovingly and said, "For you my love." Then looked up to the ceiling and started chanting in the strange language, but her voice was joined to Draconious as the spoke the same, "I have come to heal this man before me."
As she said this she waved her hand closely over Charlie's body but didn't touch him.
"I have called upon Draconious for his help and he has agreed, I will now perform the ancient spell that will save my loves life." Kathleen continued.
"The sacred healing spell of, Mens mentis corpus corporis pectus animus debeo infinitas infinitio."
Kathleen then looked to Charlie and said, "I shall bind myself to him."
"I bound my mind, my body, my heart and my soul to him and only him."
"I shall only belong to him and no other man until my dying day, and I shall go on in the after life still loving him."
"I love him with every fiber of my being, and I will heal him."
Kathleen waved her arm over Charlie's body again but this time something happened, the blood that was covering him was all removed from his body, the poison leaked out of his body and onto the floor below.
The last of the poison was finally drained from Charlie's body. Across the room Hermione and Ginny watched stunned as Kathleen bent her body down to Charlie's stomach and gently blew blue fire across his abdomen. They watched as the wound started to close up leaving a faint mark.
Kathleen then stood up and walked to his head and did the same, blew gently and it was closed with no mark as all. Kathleen hesitated a little at the next part but did it anyway. Kathleen bent down to Charlie's mouth and gently opened it and blew the fire into his body to heal the organs and arteries that were injured, making his body glow.
Once she was done she stood up and said with one voice, "Thank you Draconious, I shall be forever grateful." Kathleen said a single tear running down her cheek.
Kathleen's fire dimmed as did her eyes, as Draconious said, "You are most welcome my dear, but you have the gift inside you to do this yourself, you are quiet powerful, and you only are doing what you were born to do."
Kathleen nodded but stayed silent looking as Charlie resting peacefully.
Draconious spoke up again saying, "He is a very lucky mortal man to have such a woman who loves him so much, that would give him this great gift." Kathleen just nodded again tears leaving her eyes.
Draconious still in Kathleen's body but his voice said looking over at Hermione and Ginny, "I must leave you now, but your friends I trust will take care of you?"
Kathleen nodded and stood up straight and said, "I'm ready when you are."
Kathleen felt Draconious whisper in her head, "Don't worry my child thing will work out."
With that the Ball of flame left Kathleen's body and returned out of the ceiling for whence it came.
Kathleen stumbled and fell on to the side of Charlie's bed, gasping for air and looked to Ginny and Hermione and said, "He'll be alright now."
Ginny and Hermione gasped them selves but due to the fact that Kathleen had blood coming from her eyes, nose, and mouth.
Kathleen went to stand up straight but fell back against the wall behind her, slumping to down to the floor, blood streaking down her face.
Ginny and Hermione ran to her. Ginny of course asked her, "Are you all right, we didn't want you to do that to almost kill your self, did you know that would happen?"
Kathleen looked to Ginny and Hermione and said, "Yes I knew there was a chance I would not make it but I had to do it."
"Why?" Ginny asked but Hermione answered for her, "Because she loves him and would give her own life for him." Tears leaking out of Hermione's eyes as Kathleen nodded.
"I need to rest." Kathleen said sleepily.
Hermione and Ginny nodded helping Kathleen to stand but was too weak to even stand so Ginny and Hermione each grabbed one of her arms and put it around their shoulders, so that they were supporting all of her weight, as Kathleen's head hung limply forward they headed out of the room to take care of Kathleen, and try to explain to the Weasley's how Charlie just came back from deaths door, with out telling Kathleen's secret.
