Chapter 7: A Revelation
What something appears to be
may not be correct
Someone who was judged
has been redeemed
Life is full of surprises
in the place
you wouldn't expect
to look for them

{ } = Thoughts

Two weeks had gone by and it was finally time for the first Quidditch match. Excitement filled the castle. Other than several verbal sparing matches between Malfoy and Artemis the school had seen little entertainment so everyone was coming to watch. Plus it was gryffindor versus Slytherine who would want to miss that.

With permission from Professor Dumbledore Artemis was flying over the game taking pictures with a digital camera modified to work on magic instead of batteries so that it would work at Hogwarts.

"And here we are again the first Quidditch match of the season" came the announcers voice "Gryffindor versus Slytherine" when the announcer said Gryffindor ¾ of the stands cheered. When Slytherine was announced only a quarter of the stands cheered and the rest booed or clapped politely.

"It is a fine day for a quidditch match if I do say so myself. What beautiful scenery not a cloud in the sky just Lady Gryffin flying around on her RED PHEONIX " he raised his voice as he said Red Phoenix.

At this point the whole school looked up to see if she was really flying a Red Phoenix.

{I knew I should have left this broom at home as its only the best broom in existence but no I had to bring it so I could get some really amazing pictures stupid me.}

"Let the game begin" came the announcement and every eye left Artemis letting her take several really good pictures. Luckily for Artemis her broom had a spell on it that made it repel bludgers so she didn't have to avoid them.

Suddenly out of nowhere Artemis had chills run up and down her spine. She looked down in time to see one of the Gryffindor beaters hit a bludger at Draco as he and Harry were racing for the snitch. The bludger hit Draco on the back of his head with a sickening thud. Draco fell from his broom lifeless. Artemis turned white.

{Draco. No} She saw his body plummeting to the ground

Artemis tilted her broom and in an instant she had caught him. She held him in her arms as she landed. Once she touched the ground with him in her arms she sunk down on her knees. She felt his blood seeping through her robes from the wound it was deep. Very deep.

"No. Don't die on me Draco," She sobbed hugging him to her chest. "You can't please no. Don't give up please".

The teacher and both Quidditch teams were running towards her.

She felt his pulse weakening even more and made a choice to give him his life. With tears streaming down her face she held her hands out over the gash in his head and breathed deeply suddenly a force field of a rainbow of color surrounded the two shocking everyone who could see it.

As his wound started to heal she began to be linked to him.

She saw Lucius Malfoy beating him with curses. Hundreds of curses then just before the wound finished healing and she slipped out of consciousness she saw Draco when he was about 12 being put under the Imperius Curse.

Then everything went black.
