Can I say "best thing I've ever posted here?" It's fitting, given that I turned 14 on Monday . . . maybe this is the start of a new era in Caitlin artwork. ^^ A huge thanks goes to my big brother and his birthday gift for me - an art book! It was a huge help!
They reached the bank with a little bump and Harry leapt out, then turned quickly to help Dumbledore. [ . . . ] Dumbledore gave a great sigh and leaned against the cavern wall.
"I am weak. . . ." he said.
"Don't worry, sir," said Harry at once, anxious about Dumbledore's extreme pallor and by his air of exhaustion. "Don't worry, I'll get us back. . . . Lean on me, sir. . . ."
And pulling Dumbledore's uninjured arm around his shoulders, Harry guided his headmaster back around the lake, bearing most of his weight. [ . . . ] They crossed the outer cave, and Harry helped Dumbledore back into the icy seawater that filled the crevice in the cliff.
"It's going to be all right, sir," Harry said over and over again, more worried by Dumbledore's silence than he had been by his weakened voice. "We're nearly there. . . . I can Apparate us both back. . . . Don't worry. . . ."
"I am not worried, Harry," said Dumbledore, his voice a little stronger despite the freezing water. "I am with you."
