That was frustrating. Wesley frowned and stood his ground as the ground around them shook. Whatever the Weasley girl was doing upset the Thing enough to cause a reaction. Looking at that bit of bright magic something in him recoiled, but he didn't waver. They had to stop this monster and Wesley would easily die trying to do just that.

Ignoring Ginny and the other girl Wesley focused in on that little seed inside himself letting it take hold of him and use his body. This was more magic than he had ever attempted and yet it was still just a tiny bit compared to a seasoned user. His eyes became black and just for a moment he radiated darkness. He could feel himself drying up. This was something his core wasn't used to and it rebelled against him. With the last of his energy Wesley released a binding spell; Infinite Agonies was a terrible thing to unleash even upon an enemy.

Blood began to drip from Wesley's nose and he was falling to the ground without even seeing if the dark spell affected the monster.
