"I don't know if I can handle this much longer... he's too heavy..."
She was carrying Ron up to the castle. She stumbled. But then, as before, felt the mark on her forehead glow, and she disapparated.
**************************************************************************************
Dumbledore, Seamus and Lavender came flying into the common room.
"Dumbledore!" shrieked Ginny. "No one was there, all at Hogsmede, except us...I don't know, he's not breathing... he just when flying... help him... oh god, help him!!" She was hysterical, kneeling beside Harry's unmoving body.
Dumbledore knelt down beside him. "We need to get Ron here now. But Hermione... the same thing must have happened... I don't know how we can do the counter curse without her here..."
"I left him in the rose garden, I was scared... he just went flying..."
"She was here!" said Ginny. "She appeared out of nowhere, she was hysterical... jumped right out of the window, landed without a scratch, to get to Ron..."
"You mean she wasn't affected?"
"I don't know... she seemed fine. But do something quick, Dumbledore..."
Suddenly, Hermione appeared out of nowhere, collapsing under Ron's weight.
"Hermione?"
"Ron!" Lavender knelt beside him. "He still not breathing, oh my god... he's turned blue..."
"He not breathing!!! Do something... they're not breathing... but I am, I don't get it, and I keep glowing... they're going to die..." she was nearly screaming, hysterically. "Something's happening... I don't know, I just don't know... help... it doesn't make sense... I jumped through a window... I don't why, it didn't hurt... t doesn't make sense... do something..."
"Hermi, calm down, stop..."
"Suspendi linea!!!"
Hermione suddenly froze, and the trio were enveloped in something that resembled a bubble.
"What did you do?" asked Lavender and Ginny in unison.
"Suspended them in time, but it won't last long. We need Arabella. We have to re-establish the Anam Cara. They were too far from each other, the Anam Cara hadn't established enough strength to keep from snapping. That where the snap comes in. It could kill them, but if we do the counter curse in time, there may not be too much damage-"
"Wait a minute" exclaimed Ginny. "What do you mean damage?"
"I can't say. There could be memory loss among other things."
"Not permanent though, right. It won't be permanent, if we do the counter curse, right? I mean, it can't-"
"It can't be permanent, that's not possi-"
"Gin, Lavender, calm down, they're going to be okay. Relax." Seamus put an arm around their shoulders. "They'll be okay."
"No they won't! They won't be okay, if they can't remember, if they can't remember anything..."
"I need you three to listen to me. We're going to do the Anam Cara. Were going to save them. But I need you and Seamus to run up to my office. The password is strawberry shortcake. Go up to the statue of the griffin, say the password, curl, and a door will open to Arabella's quarters. Get her down here now. All you need to tell is that they snapped. She'll know what to do. Go now."
Ginny and Lavender wiped their tears away and nodded. They left to get Arabella.
Dumbledore sighed. "Well another right mess you three have gotten yourself into."
(A/N: This is the part where they all stand up and laugh at their good joke. Yeah right....)
With a flick of his wand, he moved the trio into position, in a circle. The bubble started to fade. It was wearing off.
"Hurry Arabella" he sighed.
She arrived just in time.
"They snapped?" she asked in alarm.
He nodded. "And the time suspension is wearing off, so can we hurry please?"
She nodded. She stood beside the trio, pulled out her wand, and began to chant:
"Cairdeas breis doimhneacht nà daonna aireachtáil, banna chomh doimhneacht chomh an Anam."
(A/N: Translation: Friendship more deep than human perception, bond as deep as the soul.)
Arabella unsheathed the jeweled dagger. It was ornate, inlaid with emeralds, made of Kryptonite, celtic designs ingrained all along the blade.
"Mé ceangail tú, Anam chuig Anam, cuimhne chuig cuimhne. Chomh trí, bhfóire an cumhacht de an caithréimeach tuirling anuas tú."
( I join you soul to soul, mind to mind. As three, may the power of the triumphant descend upon you.)
Se pierced each of their hands, and the wounds transformed into the shape of a claddagh ring. She placed their hands together.
"Anam Cara, Mé ceangail tú, Anam chuig Anam, cuimhne chuig cuimhne!"
There was a flash.
"I think it's done." She said, sighing.
"I only hope it wasn't too late."
She nodded. "Something always happens."
"Arabella, something strange happened. When they snapped... Harry and Ron were the only one who passed out, stopped breathing. Hermione felt it, but she-"
"What? That's impossible!"
"I guess not. Ginny said after Harry went flying, she appeared out of nowhere."
"How could she apparate in the castle?"
"I don't think she did. It's that mark. It has to be. A protection of some sort. Ginny said she jumped out of the closed window at a run. She shattered the glass, and went flying. She jumped from the top of the tower down to the bottom, and was fine. It has to be that mark."
She nodded. "I can't think of any reason. But we have to move them. We can't leave them in the middle of the common room. Everyone else will be returning from Hogsmede soon."
He nodded. "Hospital wing."
With the flick of their wands, they levitated the trio and walked them to the hospital wing.
"Where are Ginny, Lavender and Seamus?"
"Seamus took the girls to the Hospital Wing, they were very shaken up."
"Just when we thought everything was quieting down..."
"Yeah, first Malfoy tries to kill Harry, then this."
"Have you guys found out how to fix him yet?"
"No clue. He might be stuck like that forever."
Arabella sighed. "Everything that can go wrong does. I wouldn't be surprised if the Anam Cara doesn't work."
"Don't even say it... don't even say it..."
Will the Anam Cara Work? We shall see....
