She had to keep her eyes open because of the blast. The timing was important, she knew. Too soon and Malfoy's spell would ricochet back onto them. Too late and they would be buried in stone. As she held her wand, she tried to keep it steady, but it shook. She gripped it harder as fear prickled at her mind.
Once she counted down, the light extinguished and she saw the spell fly from Malfoy's wand. Thankfully the spell temporarily illuminated the space, and she saw it hit the rock above them. "Protego!" She whispered, her voice shaking as the spell left her wand.
She held her wand aloft, and soon enough the rocks and debris slammed onto the shield. Rowan flinched and she couldn't help the yelp that emitted from her as they waited for the rocks to fall around them.
