There was a sudden rush around the quidditsch pitsch. One second Seamus Finnigan was flying in front of the Gryffindor Goal and the next second he is falling down.
It was Ron‘s scream that echoed through the whole school, because he was the first to see.
Then there was a powerful rush all around as all teachers used different spells to rescue Seamus.
Time ceases to exist as Seamus stops in Midair. They look at each other in surprise cause nobody had thought about Wingardium Leviosa. Than they see Dumbledore sitting there smiling as he looks proudly at his son in all but blood.
Severus Snape stands there with his hand outstrechted without his wand and is focused on Seamus Finnigan so that the boy wouldn`t continue to fall.
Just now did everyone seem to notice that this wasn`t the levitation spell but a time spell to stop time from flowing.
Slowly Severus goes down to the pitch, never breaking the concentration of his mind so that Seamus wouldn’t start falling again. There Seamus is floating before him in the air and he holds his arms out.
Just then the spell breaks and Seamus lands safely in his Professors arms.
But what Snape sees is not what he hoped for.
There was blood flowing from Seamus mouth and his eyes were not focused but half lidded.
The boy was hurt!
Then his mind registered that the boy was breathing with difficulty.
For the first time in years he began to worry for someone other than himself.
