And to think Sutton was the one new to this whole magic thing!

Ed had somehow managed to harden the muddy ground, and before Sutton knew it, she was on her feet, being pushed out of danger. When her feet hit the grass, she spun around wanting to hug Edmund, but he wasn't there. In horror she watched as he took a blow from a tree branch right in the back and landed in the mud.

"Edmund!!" she screamed, racing back toward him. This was going to be tricky. "Protego!" she cast before them and, concentrating on holding the shield strong, she grabbed her friend by the arm and, with much effort, managed to drag him as far as the hardened path he had created in the mud. "C'mon, Ed..." she pleaded, giving him one final tug but no longer being able to pull him without the aid of the slippery mud.

Okay, he'd been knocked down, he could deal with that. But Sutton screamed his name and before he had a chance to get up, she was back beside him. Oh, Merlin. He was about to get up onto his knees when she dragged him. What?

He raised a muddy hand to his face and wiped some of the excess mud away so he could see. He could FEEL the hardened mud by his hand, but again, Sutton was the one who he was thinking about. He scrambled to his feet and without even thinking, just grabbed her around the waist and half carried her to the grass so she could focus on the shield. Once they were out of the danger area, he let go and sat down, staring at the tree that had assaulted them. How many times had Sutton saved him again? "Thanks."
