Alright enough about them, here is the chapter, hope you enjoy, it's extremely long and was a killer to write.
"Ron!" Hailey screamed as she ran through the mass that rushed out the doors. Her eyes began to flooded with tears at the realization that her fears had come true, her friends were now targets. She reached Ron's wounded body and kneeled down next to him. His eyes were rolled in the back of his head, his back was arched into the air and his yelps deafened Hailey for a moment. She took his trembling hands into hers and tried to calm herself down. Hermione had followed her through the crowd and lay sobbing over Ron's chest, her clothes became saturated in blood. Hailey shut her eyes and drowned out the sound of everything except Ron's heartbeat, as Voldemort had tried teach her to do so long ago. She could hear the pounding of Ron's heart starting to slow down, and a muffled whispering in the background. 'Enchantments!' she thought and focused on the murmurs.
Harry watched as Hailey's body cease its movement. Harry's eyes were filled with dread, his best friend was dying and he couldn't do anything but watch. Harry looked up to see Professor Snape and Professor McGonagal running in. When Snape reached for Hailey's shoulder, but Harry stepped in front of her.
"She is the only one who can save him, leave her be!" Harry ordered rather than asked.
"We can take care of him, move out of the way!" Snape command, but Professor McGonagal put a gentle hand on Harry's shoulder.
"He is right, she has more power than most of us here, though she may not be able to use it, she is the only one who can resolve this." She looked back at the girl, her body was tense and her eyes still shut.
Hailey began to envision a face, a man with long shaggy brown hair was enchanting words. His voice was raspy and deep, his lid had a scar over it and his cheek did also. His face was tight with concentration and his closed eyes moved around in the sockets. Hailey could sense his surroundings, gloomy, grimy and reeking with death. There was no doubt in her mind, he was in Voldemort's retreat, Hailey could even vaguely sense Voldemort himself . In the room a miniature doll that looked like Ron was placed in front of the man, red paint was being smeared on it by his fingerless hand. 'I have to stop him… even if I have to kill him.' Hailey thought to herself.
Harry tugged Hermione off of Ron when he saw a essence of green emerge from Hailey's hands. Ron's body was soon absorbed by it also and his agony seemed to cease. In a sudden flash of green Ron's body was lifeless and Hailey collapsed. Harry rushed to his cousin and Hermione draped her arms around a bloody, but breathing Ron.
"And she had just recovered. When will that girl learn to stay out of trouble?" Dumbledore's humorous voice broke the silence in the Great Hall. His tall form sauntered over to the incident, and his smile faded.
"Do you know what happened here, Albus?" Professor McGonagal asked.
"Yes, unfortunately I do. Minerva, she has killed one of Voldemort's death eaters . She used the killing curse to save Ron's life." Dumbledore's expression was no longer joyous, but serious and grave.
Professor McGonagal gasped at his words and looked down at the girl. Her skin was pale and rigid with pain. The task had not been easy for the girl, but she had no other alternative.
Harry lifted the girl and walked cautiously towards the Hospital Wing, amazed at what he had just witnessed. 'She has mastered it, she now knows how to send spells without actually seeing the person. But it almost killed her.' Harry looked down at the girl in his arms. Her breathing was shallow and her face was pallid.
"Back again?" Madam Pomfrey shook her head and placed the girl on a bed and began to tend to her. After a few minutes of examination she sighed. "She will be here for about three hours, then she should be fine, she just need some sleep and lots of pumpkin juice."
Harry grinned at this report and resumed his lessons. Ron was also taken to the Hospital Wing for inspection but was conveyed back to class after about ten minutes. Though rumors dashed around the school before Ron had even returned to class.
"I hear she brought him back from the dead." a first year babbled as Harry passed by. Ron looked over his shoulder then back at Harry.
"Bloody hell Harry, are they ever going to shut up?" Ron sighed as they walked into the Charms class room. To their surprise Hailey sat smiling and giggling with Hermione. She was in fresh robes and sat on the table in front of Hermione. Her complexion was once again vibrant and her eyes glimmered.
"Hailey, your alright!" Ron beamed and sat next to her.
"I should say the same to you, glad I could help you. I was nervous there for a minute or two, I didn't think I would be able to get rid of him." Hailey smirked and kissed Ron's cheek.
"Well, thank you." Ron blushed.
"Hailey we have Quidditch tryouts today. I have been putting them off for three days so you could tryout and then you go and try to get yourself killed, again." Harry smiled.
"Oh don't worry, even if I was half dead I could still get the position I wanted." Hailey grinned.
"A little cocky are we?" A male's voice interrupted the conversation and Hailey glanced over to see Draco and his goons watching her.
"Always have been, but at least I can back up what I say." Hailey shot back.
"You say that, but I have yet to see you play." Draco stood up from his seat and began walking towards her.
"Well I have heard about your playing skills, and you have yet to catch the snitch in a game against Gryffindor, so don't talk to big." Hailey smirked, she knew she had just hit Draco in a sensitive spot.
"Watch yourself Potter, I could quickly kick your ass in Quidditch if I chose to." Draco stood in front of the girl.
"We will just have to see about that then won't we Draco. I think the Professor would like to begin his lesson." Hailey smirked and patted Draco on the cheek before slipping into her seat.
Draco glared at the girl for a moment then wandered to his seat and watched her through out the whole class. 'I hate when she gets smart with me, I just want to…bloody hell she's confusing. One minute she is innocent and sweet the next minute she is so bloody sexy.' Draco mentally kicked himself for such thoughts, she was a job and nothing more.
Hailey stayed after the class was dismissed to gather all her make up work from Professor Flitwick. For only missing three days of work she walked out of the class room with a stack of papers that was about three inches thick. Hailey sighed when she noticed Harry and the others were gone. 'Go figure, Ron's got other women to flirt with and Harry has Quidditch tryouts to work on.' Hailey thought to herself annoyed.
"You need help with those papers Miss Quidditch Queen?" Draco's mocking voice whispered in her ear as his hands snaked around her waist.
"You know Draco you're not supposed to sexually assault other students." Hailey turned around to face Draco, the large stack of papers in her hands kept him from getting too close.
"It's not assault if you like it." Draco smirked and took the papers out of her hands.
"I never said I liked anyone touching me, especially you and they way you touch." Hailey shot back, even though she knew she did.
"You may not admit it, but your eyes tell me differently. You want me to touch you, you like when I handle you roughly." Draco pulled her against him and held her there firmly.
"Draco, did anyone tell you that you're an ass?" Hailey looked at him seriously.
"Actually yes, but no woman has." Draco began kissing on her neck softly.
"I am guessing that you're the kind of guy who gets what he wants." Hailey tilted her head slightly to the side, she did enjoy his kisses. Draco smiled when he felt the vibration of her voice against his lips.
"Yes, I always get what I want. You just figured this out?" Draco slipped his hand up the side of her shirt. Her skin was warm and tender, almost intoxicating to the touch.
"No, just making sure I was the first to disappoint you." Hailey snatched her papers and left Draco standing there speechless.
'Damn her! Who does she think she is walking away from me when I was having my fun. I will get her to beg for my touch soon.' Draco balled up his fists and turned the other way.
Hailey strolled into the Common Room, everyone was there talking about the Quidditch tryouts and who they believed would be in what position. When Hailey glanced around she saw a few third year boys were making bets on who would be Keeper.
"You know it's going to be McLaggen, I mean he's got the speed and the strength to be the Keeper. Besides who else is trying out?" a third year boy with disarrayed brown hair and vivid green eyes asked. He was about as tall as Hailey, and he was incredibly lean. His face was covered in freckles and he had a very charming smile.
"Well boys I can tell you who will be Keeper right now. Ron Weasley is trying out and we all know he will make it because he's got connections with the captain of the team." another boy added. He had short, blonde, orderly hair. His big brown eyes scanned the crowd to see if anyone was listening. His auburn skin made his hair stand out, and he was only a few inches shorter than Hailey from the looks of it.
" Well boys I will just have to prove you all wrong then, won't I?" Hailey smirked and sat down next to them.
"You plan on trying out?" the brunette asked flashing her a flirtatious smile.
"Yes I do, what you have never seen a girl play before?" Hailey laughed at the boy.
"Not that position, most girls try to be Chasers, which is an easier job." The blonde turned to her.
"Well I don't go for the easy jobs, so I guess I will do well." Hailey grinned.
"Girl your about as big as my toothpick here. You are made to be one of those pretty girls who sits on the side line and watches her boyfriend play." the brunette smiled and pulled the toothpick out of his mouth to prove his point.
"Excuse me but I am no toothpick, and I don't like to be chewed on at any rate." Hailey snickered.
"None the less, you don't stand a chance against McLaggen." the brunette leaned closer. "But you know if things don't work out for you and him, I am always single." he chuckled and exhibited her one of his charming smiles.
"Actually I like Slytherin boys more." Hailey laughed and stood up. "Ten gallons says I will have this position." she threw down ten coins and walked off leaving the boys to watch.
"Hailey! I was just getting ready to come look for you." Hermione smiled and helped Hailey through the crowd of first years.
"Yeah sorry, Professor Flitwick took a bloody long time to get me the papers, and I swear he gave me next weeks papers too." Hailey laughed.
"Oh comeon now Hailey, I know something else was keeping you. I hear Malfoy wasn't in his Common Room for a while either." Hermione lead Hailey up to the girls dormitory.
"Alright you got me, he was there. And well…he managed to get his hands on me, but not for long." Hailey smiled.
"You know, I do believe he likes you because you don't give him what he wants." Hermione smiled and pointed her quill at Hailey.
"I know, but I will not give him what he wants either, so I guess I have to deal with him." Hailey laughed.
"Well then you have a stalker. So I hear your trying out for Keeper." Hermione's face turned serious.
"Yes…I know Ron's trying out too. I need to talk to him before tryouts so I can make sure he knows that no matter who gets it we are still friends." Hailey looked down at her hands.
"Hailey…Ron hasn't been himself lately. He's gone all…well, foolish for girls. I am not fond of the change but as a friend I stay quiet." Hermione sat on Hailey's bed. Hermione walked over and picked up her quill and paper she was working on before.
"You like him don't you?" Hailey smiled as Hermione blushed.
"You have to promise not to tell anyone." she poked Hailey's nose with her quill.
"I promise on pain of death to never speak of Hermione's love to anyone but her." Hailey giggled and looked at the letter Hermione was writing. It was to Viktor Krum, asking him the usual.
"You miss him?" Hailey smiled.
"Yes and no. I miss his charm and his funny acsent but I didn't care for him the way I do you, Harry and Ron." Hermione looked off to the windows.
"Well, as compassionate as the moment is, I saw a few good looking boys downstairs. So I am off to flirt…for the first time in…well forever." Hailey smiled and ran down the stairs back into the Common Room.
