Chapter 12

Harry couldn't see anything. It was like he was blind. He felt the air whipping past him as he fell upwards. He heard screams emit from the three girls. They must be near him. He now felt as though he was spinning. Then he saw a burst of light and everything went black-er.
Harry awoke to find himself lying on the floor of an extremely dark cave. Not as dark as the place he had been however. He could see about five feet around him in all directions. "Lumos." He whispered lighting up his wand. He saw his friends scattered in different directions all around the cave. They were all still unconscious. Harry gazed around the cave for a moment before he realized that there was no entrance, or exit. He ran over to Ron and began shaking him.
Ron groaned. "Huh. Harry where are we? Did it work?"
"I'm not sure. Let's wake the others." Harry and Ron woke the rest except for Megan who wouldn't awake. They let her lay on the floor and sleep.
"There isn't any way in or out of here guys." Harry told them.
"Oh my God. What are we gonna do?" Lizzie asked.
Hermione, however, took out her wand and began tapping the walls around her. Harry was startled to find that one wall of the four that held them in jumped aside at Hermione's touch.
"Let's go then." Ryan said moving forward.
"What about Megan?" Lizzie asked.
"We can carry her." Ron said. He and Hermione lifted Megan onto their shoulders. She was very tiny for her age and was therefore, easy to carry. They headed out of their cave and down a passage.
"Are you sure we're going the right way?" Lizzie asked after about an hour.
"What other way do you propose we go?" Harry asked.
Lizzie shrugged and they walked on. Suddenly, Harry felt the ground fall out from underneath him. Before he could shout a warning to the others, he fell with a hard thud on more rocky ground. This time something snapped. He felt a sharp pain go through his elbow as the other fell around him.
"Is everyone ok?" Harry asked.
"Yeah." Lizzie answered.
"Yep." Ryan said.
"Uh. Huh." That was Ron.
"I twisted my ankle. I think I can walk but I can't carry Megan anymore." Hermione said, standing up very slowly. They didn't need to carry Megan anymore however, she had disappeared.
"Where's Megan?" Lizzie exclaimed.
"We can't possibly beat Voldemort without her!" Ryan said.
"Maybe she didn't fall. Maybe she's still up top." Harry suggested but when he looked up, he found that there was no hole for them to have fallen through. Not even a crack.
"Well let's get a move on then." Hermione said starting forward.
"What! We can't we have to..." Lizzie said.
"Look for Megan?" Hermione finished. "Well, we obviously aren't going to find her up there and she'd definitely not here so the only place to look is ahead."
"She's right Liz." Harry said getting up to follow her. They headed forward into another passageway that looked much like the one they were just in. In this one however, there was a light at the end.
Just like in my dream. Harry thought. Except Megan wasn't there.
Harry wondered if they should stop and turn back. Then he remembered that there wasn't a back to turn to. They were stuck. It was now or never.
They were almost at the light. Harry stopped. He felt like he needed to say something.
"Guys, whatever happens, just know that you're the best friends I've ever had." Harry said. They all nodded in agreement.
They were at the light. Harry couldn't make out what was on the other side. Ryan sighed.
"You first buddy." He said.
Harry took a deep breath and stepped into the light. The light turned out not to be a light at all but a really bright mist. Harry walked through the mist for what seemed like a quarter of an hour before coming out on the other side. He stepped out of the mist and into a room. It was an odd sort of room. No windows. There was a platform in the middle and lying on the platform was,
"Megan!" Harry whispered.
The others had entered the room by now.
"Megan!" Lizzie exclaimed. She ran up to her friend, but when she tried to grab her hand, she was thrown backwards onto the wall.
"Lizzie! Are you ok?" Hermione asked.
"She's awake." Lizzie said.
"What?" Ryan asked.
"Your friend's right." A cold voice said. "The girl is awake."
Harry gasped as Voldemort materialized before their very eyes.
"Surprised to see me?" He asked.
"No." Harry said stepping forward.

"I didn't think so."
