Chapter 7: The scar

As Ron said those kind words Harry came running, well he was sort of running, Caitie was holding him up from the under arm.

"We were only taking when he collapsed holding his head I didn't know were to go! I'm really sorry for disturbing!" gasped Caitie who was clearly out of breath from all those flights of stairs.

"Oh my gosh! HARRY!" gasped Hermione

It wasn't the first time Harry's scar burnt white hot, but this pain was different, this pain was close.

"He- he- he's close," said a struggling Harry

"You mean You-know-who?" choked Ron

All Harry could do was nod, his head was going to split he knew it, it definitely wasn't going to stay together.

Ally and Caitie just stood there "what do we do?" asked a worried Ally, "Errrrr...." Was all Caitie could muster because as she said those words the common room portrait burst open!

Several things happened at once Dumbledore and McGonagle came into the door along with all the students that were done at dinner.

Dumbledore rushed to Harry's side as McGonagle held back the other Gryffindors who were all trying to see what was going on.

"Harry I would really appreciate it if you were to tell me what is going on inside your head." Said Dumbledore calmly.

"He's close" said Harry choking on his own words

A clap of thunder struck outside, everyone in the room shuttered.

"Ms. Voysey please escort Ms. Turk back to her common room, thank you." Dumbledore's voice didn't sound like the usual go-happy voice that everyone loved, his voice now sounded old and weary as if a load of sorrow suddenly dawned on him.

"Yes sir." Replied Ally in a quivering voice.

As Ally and Caitie went down the Hall towards the Hufflepuff Common room, an uninviting silence was amongst them.

It was Caitie, who broke the silence,

"What do you think is going to happen?" asked Caitie

Ally shrugged holding back all her fear.

Ally's feet carried her to the Ravenclaw common room almost instantly, but before Caitie could go in Erika came running towards them.

Gasping for air Erika managed to speak

"Dumbledore...Voldermort...Harry, Ron need help!".

Ally and Caitie managed to understand the last part, grabbing Erika, they ran as fast as they could to the Gryffindor common room.

When they got there it was empty. Ally looked at Erika, "Where are they?!?" she asked her imagination running wild at what could of happened.

"Voldermort and Dumbledore are dueling Ron a Harry are out in the grounds. Harry is in A LOT of pain more then usual."

And with that Ally, Caitie, and Erika ran to the grounds.
