So that was the easy way out of the question. Damn, she could have been lucky and Amelia Bones could have returned from before she'd died, but of course things were not meant to be that easy.
She sighed. "Well yes, you're right. I did die. That would be the more complicated version where I tell you the spell brings back people who died," she said. "I was hoping to save that part for when we were at the ministry. You died, and now you're alive again. Just like me. And yes I know it's insane and goes against everything we ever learnt about magic, but that doesn't change the fact that we're both standing here."
"I really do need to take you to the Ministry. Orders and all. I promise you'll get everything explained there." She kept her hands visible and empty knowing she could manage without a wand even if it was slightly more difficult. It was one of those things that had always helped her on the field, she wasn't beaten just because she lost her wand.
