Who's the brave one...

Gideon turned around and saw the other werewolf. He clashed onto the other one, making it bleed considerably. "AWOOOOOOOOOO!" he howled. He made the other Werewolf run away, and then he started searching for the other humans.

In the middle of all of this, Ella didn't know what to do. As the others ran in one direction, she ran the other.

Should I leave the forest and protect myself or should I help them? she wondered.

Suddenly, Gideon saw a girl, who he thought was deep in thought. He bounded toward her, knocking her down with his claws.

Matt wheeled around, and asked the other two to stop.

"What the hell was that?"

Ella yelped as she was knocked over by Gideon. His wolfish face looked hungry and leaned forwards to bite her...

Matt grabbed Hai's and Aurora's arm and pulled them back to where he had heard the noise. They entered a clearing and saw the werewolf pounce on somone/something.

"Diffindo" Matt yelled, pointing his wand at the Werewolf's arm.

"This way!" called Aurora. This might not work, this spell I'm going to try... "Accio Ella!" she said, pointing her wand in the general direction of the scream. She heard a shuffle, and saw Ella dragged by some force a few feet away from the werewolf. Aurora concentrated and jumped, turning into her animagus form, a Raven, she flew in the direction of Ella.

Matt cast a shield charm around Ella, and then turned his attention on the Werewolf.

Gideon's mind was whirling as a human faced him. Suddenly, a huge werewolf knocked him down, and he lay there unconscious, turning back into human form.

"Thanks," Ella barely managed to mutter and turned her attention towards Gideon, who was knocked over by another werewolf. Giden was sprawled on the ground, unconcious, and rapidly turning back into human form.

Even though Gideon had tried to bite her, Ella couldn't leave him there. "Stupefy!" she said, pointing her wand at the werewolf. It screeched in pain and fell backwards.

"Oh my God!" gasped Aurora, back in her human form, unwisely standing over the werewolf, ut then sensibly backing away.

"Grab her arm Aurora..." Matt said, grabbing one of Ella's arms.

Aurora did grab one of Ella's arms and helped to move her towards somewhere safer.

"What are we gonna do?!" Matt exclaimed as they put Ella down and propped her up by a tree.

Gideon's eyes were whirling back and forth, his head dizzy. He managed to get up finally, but crashed against a tough and thick tree root and fell unconscious.

"Ughh... Rennervate, RENNERVATE!" gasped Aurora in desperation, flicking her wand every which way over Gideon.

"Just....get...him....over.....here" Matt said, pulling on his arm, and dragging him over to where Ella was.

"Winguardium Leviosa!" said Aurora, swishing and flicking her wand, hoping it would make their way out of the forest easier. She laid Gideon by Ella. "Ugh, what shall we do?" We can get back easily, we can just transform and fly into the common room, but what shall we do with them?" she gestured to Ella and Gideon.

"I have a great idea..." Matt said to her; "We use the vanishing charm on them...and then use the summoning charm on them when we reach the common room"

"It does work..."

"Ok, go for it. Though a disillusionment (sp?) charm would work good. So, I'll fly to the Slytherin common room and summon Ella, you do the same for Gideon in Gryffindor. Prop them up in an armchair so it just makes them look like they've fallen asleep. We could do a memory charm - maybe it's best for them to forget all this. Make them pretend they've been working really hard from an essay and just fell asleep?"

Gideon woke up and said, "Yeah?" He smiled and walked by a tree to sit on it.

Matt flicked his wand at Gideon making him fall to sleep again.

"Ok, on the count of three..."

"One"

"Two"

"Three"

"Evanesco" he said, pointing his wand at Gideon. The spot where Gideon had been sitting in was now empty. "Your turn..."

"Ok..." Aurora muttered an incantation for a memory charm, so Ella didn't remember the events in the forest, she just remembered falling asleep after working on a long Transfiguration essay.
"Evanesco," Aurora said and Ella almost dissapeared - you could just see the outline of her body.
"Let's go," she said to Matt, and turned into her Raven animagus form. She knew there was a small window leading into the common room and made her way over there.

Matt transformed into an owl, and flew off towards Hogwarts.

((What the heck?))

Suddenly, Gideon appeared in the Forbidden Forest again. He opened his eyes and smiled. Now where shall I go? he wondered.
