Thursday Afternoon 3:06 pm

Draco pushed open the door to Hermione's room once again and smiled seeing she was awake.

"Good afternoon love," he said sitting down next to her.

She seemed to only partly acknowledge his presence and smiled weakly. Then she shivered and pulled the blankets up closer. The doctors had told him to be patient and calm. That he should just talk to her, make sure she's comfortable.

"Well apparently your blood vessels dilated or something," Draco said with a slight smile, "It because of your emotional experience, that made it set in. It could happen to anyone. Happened to a lot of warlocks during the days of You-Know-Who, when he first rose. You were under a lot of strain down there, we all were and I know you'll pull out of this."

Draco continued on talking for another then minutes before he had to leave to make it to his next class. He said goodbye then left, softly shutting the door behind him and going to his last class for the day.

Thursday Evening 7:00 pm

Draco hesitantly pushed open the door to Firenze's classroom, where the psychic class was to be. The classroom was designed to be like you were outdoors. It even smelled like he was outdoors. One could easily be convinced they were really were outdoors if they didn't know the classroom was in the middle of Hogwarts on the first floor. He walked past a few trees to the little clearing in the center where a couple other people and Sen sat. Draco also noted, to his dismay, Harry and Ron were also there. He hoped they'd be over the noon happenings by now.

Harry and Ron were talking about something while Sen sat organizing some notes. He glance at Harry and Ron, and Ron glanced at him giving him a cold stare. Apparently they were still evil. Draco shivered wondering if Ron was alright, the black eye thing was giving him the creeps, and Harry didn't even seem to notice. What if he was going crazy?

Shrugging he walked over to Sen turning away from Harry and Ron. The hairs on the back his neck stood up and he got the odd feeling someone was going to stab him in the back. He stepped aside and turned around just as something did, or almost did. A bolt of magical fire zipped into the trees making a perfect hole through one of them. It then hit the walls of the room and dispersed into nothing.

Draco raised his eyebrows then turned and looked in the direction of the bolt. Ron stood their cooly, a second ball of fire gathering in between his hands. Harry stood their, seemingly oblivious looking up at the sky and humming a song. Draco gaped then glanced at Sen, she had stood up abruptly and was staring at Ron.

"Quick, grab him Draco!" she yelled and Draco surprised started towards Ron, but then stopped. Was it wise to grab someone who was holding magical fire in their hands.

"He's possessed!" she yelled, "I'll block the fire!"

Draco missed the possessed part but understood the block part and ran towards Ron as he threw another bolt at Draco. Almost instantly a blue waterish bolt hit the fire one and the fire one, evaporated. Draco looked at it stunned then ran in Ron knocking him down. He immediately started struggling, but Draco was larger and stronger. Sen came over a moment later and sat down folding her legs then closed her eyes. A moment later Ron stopped struggling. Draco stepped away, then sat down next to Sen.

"I put a binding spell on his soul," she said in answer to what he was just about to ask, "You can't do that normally, but since its not his soul that was in control, all you have to do is freeze the body and it renders the soul immobile. If he weren't possessed it wouldn't have worked."

"Ah," Draco said simply then said, "You really are into the whole psychic/meditating thing then, you weren't just kind of theorizing."

Sen grinned, "My parents taught me, they thought it was very important I know this stuff. Its hard though, have you ever lucid dreamed?"

"Never heard of it," Draco replied.

"Its when you know you are dreaming and therefore can do whatever you want. So you make something appear, you fly, change the setting, but its mentally hard to do, the smaller the thing, the easier, larger, like setting is hard, you have to think about it really hard to get it to work," Sen explained.

"Oh," Draco said surprised, he'd never given much thought to dreaming, "So what do we do with him."

Draco glanced at Ron who was still lying frozen, Harry seemed to still be under a spell and was smiling and looking around.

"Both of them, I mean," Draco added.

"Banish the evil from his body, once we fix this one, the other one will get better," Sen explained and Draco suddenly wondered if she'd ever even met Harry and Ron.

"Do you know these two?" he asked.

"I've seen them around, never talked to them though," Sen said, "I actually just got to this school, this is my first year here. I'd been going to a local public school before."

"Ah," Draco said, "The one that is er, possessed, is Ron, and that's his friend Harry, Harry Potter."

"Seriously? The-Boy-Who-Lived?" Sen asked amazed and looked at Harry more closely, "I say, I see the scar now. I'd heard he went to Hogwarts, but didn't expect, well, I don't know what I expected. I'll have to get his autograph!"

"Um, yeah," Draco said feeling uncomfortable and wondering if Harry had to go through we people acting like this all the time.

"Back to work though," she said seeing Draco's expression.

"Okay," Draco said still a little doubtful, "So how do we get the evil soul to leave?"

"First we have to shield our own minds," she said, "So the soul doesn't move to one of us once we make it leave Ron's body."

"How do we do that?" Draco asked.

"Well, you probably aren't very mentally strong right now," Sen said thoughtfully, "So I'll shield for you. You'll learn eventually, that's what I made this club for."

"Ah," Draco said and glanced at Harry who smiled then looked away.

"I'll do all the work," Sen assured him, "You just need to close your eyes and clear you mind, I'm going to draw on your strength to do the spell to get it to leave."

Draco wasn't sure he was okay with someone 'drawing on his strength' but he didn't have much of a choice. So he closed his eyes and tried to think of nothing, which he learned was something very hard to do.

After five minutes Sen spoke, "You're being too fidgety. Try to just hold one thing in your mind and think of nothing but it."

"Okay," Draco said and closed his eyes again, this time choosing to think of a red square. He kept his mind fixating on that and only that. Gradually he felt something touch his mind then cover it, almost like a solid wall around it, that nothing could get through. Then he felt a small thread of energy go through the wall, leaving him. What felt like hours later he was jerked out of the trance to see Ron and Harry both looking normal again.

He was about to stand up when he realized he was very tired. He blinked once then slowly stood up. A few black dots swam in front of his eyes, then they cleared and went away.

"Your back to normal," he stated looking at Harry and Ron. Ron looked a little sick and Harry seemed rather disoriented, but they were both okay.

At that moment Professor Dumbledore burst in and looked around worried, after seeing that all four students were okay he gave a sigh of relief then sat down on a tree trunk.

"It seems you four dealt with everything just fine," he said then added, "You students never cease to amaze me."

"Ron was possessed," Sen told the professor, who turned to look at Ron.

"I can't remember anything after lunch," he admitted.

"I can remember, someone trying to strangle me, then blackness," Harry told Dumbledore.

"Do you know who it was that possessed you Ron?" Dumbledore asked looking Ron in the eye.

Ron shook his head truthfully then said, "I don't know, but it was someone evil."

Professor Dumbledore then turned his gaze to Draco and said, "This is what you've been worrying about is it not? What happened to You-Know-Who and how he will strike again if he's alive."

Draco nodded surprised and curious to know how Dumbledore saw all this. "So it was the Dark Lord that possessed Ron?" he asked.

"Indeed," Professor Dumbledore said, "And he will take over someone else, he's probably in their bodies already."

"What are we going to do about it?" Harry asked speaking up again.

"I think that Sen here can teach you a lot," Dumbledore said, "In the meanwhile I think I can hold it under control, you four could be a big help though."

Harry and Ron nodded, both of them getting that determined to help look on their faces, making Draco once again wonder and marvel at how, when just a moment ago they were both under the Dark Lord's influence, now they were very eager to go rushing after him. Draco would actually rather just learn to shield himself, then go and watch over Hermione, while the adults took care of everything.

"So, he did die then?" Draco asked curiously.

"Yes, apparently he wasn't prepared for a collapse, they had so many protection and non-detection spells, we assume they grew un-watchful," Dumbledore explained, "Like before though, he has protected himself from fully leaving this world."

"Ah," Draco said simply.

"I'll be off then," Dumbledore said and left the classroom leaving the four students behind.
