Unseal at Hogwarts

They struggled to squeeze through a group of Ravenclaw students and Hufflepuff students. Before they reached the girls' bathroom, they smelled a pungent stench.

The smell was like a public washroom that hadn't been cleaned for tens of thousands of years mixed with severely stinky feet. Even if you only smelled a trace, the smell would hit your forehead and drive you crazy.

"Ah!" I was hit by the smell, my whole head went back, and my eyes felt like they were about to shed tears.

He hurriedly covered his mouth and nose with his left hand and felt a little better.

Harry, on the other hand, bravely braved the stench and walked forward as if nothing was wrong.

They were getting closer to the ladies' room.

Even if Tom covered his mouth and nose, he felt that the stench was getting stronger and stronger, making him unable to open his eyes.

There were some strange noises coming from near the girls' bathroom, which sounded like bare feet dragging on the floor.

The voice was mixed with a low grunt.

Tom also heard murmurs of conversation between people besides him and Harry.

"Look, the troll is looking into a room." This was Ronald Weasley speaking.

"Oh, he's in." This is one of the twins.

"The key is in the lock."

"We can lock it in."

Tom and Harry looked at each other silently, their eyes shining with joy.

It would be best if the three Weasley brothers could get things done without them having to step forward.

They hunched over and silently followed the shadows toward the Weasley brothers.

Moonlight shines in through the window.

Tom saw the twins walking sideways towards the open door not far away. Ronald Weasley covered his mouth and stuck out his bright red head in a corner, staring at the door without blinking.

Harry and Tom stopped together, hiding in the shadows and observing the movement of the door.

The stench was so strong that Tom felt as if his eyes staring at the door were starting to water up.

Just when he felt like he couldn't hold on anymore, a faint fragrance followed Tom's hand covering his mouth and nose and penetrated into Tom's nose.

He instantly felt much better.

"It's done!"

The Weasley brothers' excited shouts startled Tom.

He came to his senses.

The Weasley twins happily high-fived each other, then turned around to pick up their younger brother and ran towards the Gryffindor lounge.

Harry let out a big breath next to Tom and his whole body relaxed.

Only then did Tom realize that the fragrance that saved his sense of smell was coming from Harry.

"It's okay, let's go!"

Tom nodded and followed Harry confused.

He was still thinking about the smell that appeared on Harry's body for no reason, when suddenly, an extremely shrill and extremely frightening scream came from the locked door.

For some reason, Tom felt that his ears hurt from the scream, and he had the illusion that his eardrums were about to be burst.

He felt so uncomfortable that he covered his ears with both hands and rubbed them vigorously. Only then did he feel better.

"How..." Harry turned pale and looked back at the locked room.

But out of the corner of his eye, he caught sight of Tom who was walking with him. He was suddenly startled and stretched out his hands to support Tom.

"Tom? What's wrong with you?"

Harry asked eagerly.

"What?" Tom didn't understand what Harry was asking. He put down his hands and raised his eyes in confusion.

The fragrance wafting from Harry's body seemed to be getting stronger.

In addition, Tom seemed to hear the footsteps of the three Weasley brothers running back.

"tattoo"

It's as clear as if it's in your ears.

Tom ignored the strange look Harry was looking at him and pulled Harry to hide in the nearest shadow.

The sounds of the Weasley brothers fighting trolls in the girls' bathroom kept coming.

"Are we going to help?" Tom asked Harry.

"No!" Harry snapped, "I can't control them now. What's wrong with you?"

Harry, who was clearly worried about Hermione and Weasley before, didn't care at all about the situation in the girls' bathroom. He held his shoulders and shook Tom back and forth as if he was using all his strength.

Tom was a little confused.

"What?" Tom's voice seemed a little unstable due to the shaking, "I'm fine, I just felt a little uncomfortable just now."

But Harry was not reassured by his words.

"Do you know what you look like now?" Harry was so worried that he began to shout.

Fortunately, those nearby were busy fighting the troll in the bathroom, and the sound of the fighting completely drowned out Harry's shouts.

Instead, Tom's ears hurt from Harry's shouting.

He rubbed his ears, feeling very puzzled.

Now he only felt that the sounds around him seemed much louder than usual. Even in the darkness, he could see things more clearly than a few minutes ago.

The most important thing was that the vague smell on Harry made Tom want to pounce on him and take a bite.

But Tom still felt like nothing was wrong with him.

"I'm fine," said Tom.

Harry was angry and anxious. He grabbed Tom and dragged him towards the boys' bathroom in the other direction.

The noise coming from the girls' bathroom became louder and louder, as if the entire bathroom was being torn apart.

However, Harry didn't even look back at the bathroom.

He pulled Tom with him, his steps swift.

Tom almost staggered as he was dragged along.

"I can walk on my own," Tom muttered.

"I'm afraid that as soon as I let you go, you will disappear in the darkness." Harry's voice sounded like he was about to cry.

Is there really something wrong with my body?

Tom became suspicious.

Harry's attitude changed so much before and after. I'm afraid it was really something wrong with him that made Harry not care about Gryffindor.

Harry kicked open the door of the boys' bathroom with a bang. There were many dusty mirrors hung neatly on the walls of the bathroom.

Harry didn't need to remind him that the moment Tom stepped into the bathroom, he saw his own reflection in the mirror.

"This... I look like this now?" Tom stared at the mirror for a long time, then turned to Harry in shock for an answer.

Harry frowned and nodded worriedly.

Under the slightly dim light of the bathroom, Tom could clearly see that his short, ear-length hair had grown longer at some point, and was fluttering lightly behind him.

Those golden eyes that he loved so much had also become very strange.

Gold filled the entire pupil, and even the black pupils were completely covered by gold.

Looking in the mirror, those smart golden eyes looked extremely terrifying.
