4. Blasting Curse
The Blasting Curse had taken the dormitory wall out. Maisie was covered in dust and a chunk of stone had cut her forehead. Blood trickled into her eye. “Maisie!” Her friend said. She was bleeding from her arm and leg, on the left side.
The girls clung to each other, trying to see the way out. They stood where they were for a long time, watching the dust settle, trapped by crumbled walls. The door out of the dorm was blocked and they’d heard the staircase collapse. “Can you cast a Patronus?” Jade said. “They can be used to send messages,” "No, I can’t.” Maisie tried not to snap. Jade was frightened and Maisie guessed there was a chance she might’ve picked up Patronus’ Charm without Jade knowing. A slim chance, but… Maisie stopped herself. Her thoughts were racing and she almost hadn’t spotted them. A crack came from the staircase. “Hello!” Jade shouted.
Two Professors on brooms casting Wingardium Leviosa appeared through the stones.
It was the first time Maisie had been sick on a broomstick since she was seven.
