Chapter 10: Frustrations
Harry paced around Dumbledore's office alone (the others inspecting the crime scene.) just about wearing a hole in the floor, feeling utterly helpless but extremely angry. He wanted to shout, scream, kick something, but he didn't because he knew in his heart that it would not help anybody. How could Sky have been kidnapped? How could this have happened? He had promised to protect her… and he had failed.
**Flashback**
Harry! Trinity's voice had swept through his head like a tornado, leaving his ears ringing
Its Sky! She has been kidnapped and she is hurt! I feel it, in the west corridor going to the Gryffindor tower! Hurry Harry, I can't get in, I can't help! SKY! In a flash Harry had been out of his seat and running towards the west corridor. He skidded around the corner in time to see a masked person and Sky, who was floating in the air, blood dripping from the back of her head. The masked intruder turned to see Harry there and immediately took off with Harry in hot pursuit. Harry quickly called up his powers and gathered a lightning ball in one hand. He threw it at the masked ones feet, not daring to through higher unless he should hit Sky. The masked person leapt to one side and started glowing black! Harry watched in shock as the masked one blasted a stream of darkness towards him. Then quickly snapping out of it Harry raised his arm and, being much stronger, easily deflected it up into the sky. But when the dust had cleared… the intruder was nowhere to be found.
**End flashback**
Harry sighed uneasily. Dumbledore had told him that Voldemort had control over darkness just as Harry had control over lightning. Voldemort had found some way to give some of his minions the same power. Nobody knew how but someway… Harry started when he felt Decade rub up against his leg. Trying to reassure him.
Harry I'm so sorry I wasn't there but something was blocking Trinity and I out. Harry nodded and leaned down to pick Decade up. He hugged the little Niffler close.
"Don't worry Decade I don't blame you or Trinity for anything. The masked one was blocking you out with darkness. You just weren't strong enough to fight it. It's not your fault. Its mine."
No Harry! Don't think that way! It wasn't your fault either. You weren't prepared for the darkness. You didn't know that the masked intruder had any sort of power. You couldn't have known Harry.
"I know Decade. It's just so hard to say it's not my fault. But I know that I will save her. I have to."
Of course you will Harry. Just try to remember: It's not your fault. Sky will be ok. Harry sat on a chair and buried his face in Decade's fur. Only then did he finally let the tears come.
