Molly nodded and made quick work of the circle, drawing a simple unbroken
line around them as she drew in her will, gathering power and pouring it
into the chalk, into the boundary. It was a simple containment and
isolation spell and the power came easily so she looked at Will and nodded.
"Okay it's ready. Be careful when you let go. Don't break the chalk line
but be quick." She said seriously. "On three. One, two, three!"
Will got out of the way, pushing Snickers back ever so slightly as he
jumped clear and Molly dragged the circle shut, the energy snapping into
place the second the chalk edges connected. There was nothing to see. No
glowing lights or sparkling energy. Just an abruptly cut off snarl and a
small dog standing inside a big circle of chalk.
And then the room was silent but for the sound of the TV playing in the
background. Snickers hit the floor with a thud and Molly spun to catch Will
as he rose.
"He's fine!" She said quickly. "He's fine. He's just sleeping. It was a
strong influence on him and he's only small. The circle cut it off
abruptly, that's all. He'll be up again when his brain has worked out its
back in charge." She said, smiling and rubbing Wills arm, letting her hand
fall to hold his, squeezing reassuringly. "He's really okay, I promise."
