A path is not simply for walking, its purpose lies in moving forward and improving oneself.
While he had been occupied with shooting spell after spell to fend off another bat attack, Kevin had failed to notice that Airey Flamsteed had been struck by a stray Stupefy spell. It wasn't until the colony of bats were either removed or had repositioned their attack on a different target that he noticed his old Head of Gryffindor House down on the ground encircled by Potter and Rousseau who was already attempting to Ennervate the man.
There was a brief moment of hesitance on Kevin's part. On one hand, he felt that he should help get the injured back to safety while at the same time guarding the entrance to the liar. But another part of him knew that he had to follow his own Department Head. If what Carter had said in his Patronus message that Bain had been the one behind the attacks, then this was personal! If Bain had been the one who had abducted, interrogated and then left him for near-dead under a darn football table then he liked to be there when he got apprehended!
Waving a shield charm around himself, Kevin hurried after Upstead, Grimm and Ferguson.
