I am trying to remember each and every word Professor Moody told us in that lesson, but it does not mention anything about deflecting them, or even lessening the pain.  Well, then I just have to figure it out on my own. I doubt he is going to kill me tomorrow. He will probably make Draco suffer a bit more, maybe even doing the curse on me. How stupid were we to think we could get away with this. The elves saw and even heard us through the whole manor, we didn’t even try to be subtle about it.
