HP Spirit Grass

A week before school started, Harry's Hedwig returned from Ron with a letter from Ron.Ron said in horror that Harry lived with Snape for a full month, and if Harry was still intact, please write him a letter.Harry responded to Ron's letter with a smile on his face.

During this month, although Harry and Snape lived under the same roof, Snape made potions in his potions room all the time except when they could meet each other for meals.Snape put all his energy on potions.Yes, all the energy, he didn't even bother to say a word to Harry.

Soon, Hedwig brought back Ron's letter.Ron said that he and Hermione would come to Diagon Alley the day before school started, and that Hermione needed a pet, and they would be waiting for Harry at the Leaky Cauldron.They'll stay there for one night and take the train back to Hogwarts together the next day, and if it's possible, would you like to come too?

pet?Harry thought of Hermione's flat-faced cat.This time Harry would not suggest Hermione to go to the Fantastic Beasts store again. He didn't want to have another good friend quarrel, and he didn't want Scabbers to be scared away by Crookshanks.A well-behaved owl is nice, isn't it?

During lunch, Harry broke the silence, "Professor Snape, I want to go to Diagon Alley to buy the things I need to prepare for the start of school." Last time he went alone, it won't make any difference, ha Lee thought.

Snape said slowly, "Okay, we'll go there after dinner."

"Us?" said Harry, surprised.Harry thought of the picture of him standing with Professor Snape, and wondered how many small animals that would also come to Diagon Alley to buy things would be scared away.

"We, Mr. Potter, do you have any opinion on this?"

"NO, I have not."

Harry met many classmates in Diagon Alley, they greeted him enthusiastically, and when they saw Professor Snape in a blink of an eye, they showed expressions as if they had swallowed a whole slug, turned their heads and ran away.Harry quietly looked up at Snape, who had a look on his face that wanted to deduct points from Gryffindor.Harry thought mournfully that the Gryffindor gems were going to decline at an alarming rate.

Harry couldn't help glancing at the window as he passed the Quidditch Boutique, but he couldn't see anything, it was packed with people.Excited witches and wizards were talking about the new fire/crossbow/arrow.Fire/Crossbow/Arrow, the first gift the godfather gave him.As much as he loved it, he didn't want to be frightened by Dementors to fall from a height again and have his first broomstick smashed to pieces by the Whomping Willow.

"Potter!" Snape called him viciously.

Harry kept up with Snape and asked, "Professor, will there be dementors in Hogwarts this year?"

"Potter, since you already know, don't ask unnecessary questions."

"Oh, I mean, Professor, do you know how to deal with dementors?"

Snape raised a sarcastic smile: "As long as you don't provoke the dementors, then they won't attack you either."

"Of course I won't, but most of the time it's not that you don't cause trouble, and the trouble won't find you, don't you know that." Harry finished in one breath, and added, "Professor."

Snape gave Harry a familiar sneer: "Of course I don't know." He quickened his pace and completely left Harry behind.

Harry muttered in exasperation, "What the hell did I do to him?"

For the next few days, the low air pressure in Spider's End made it hard for Harry to breathe when he ate, and he even thought that Snape might poison his meal.Harry looked forward more and more to seeing his friends before school started.

Finally, the day has come.Harry packed his bags and said goodbye to Snape.Snape said coldly, "Mr. Potter, if I remember correctly, school doesn't start until tomorrow, does it?"

Harry said, "I'll be staying the night at the Leaky Cauldron, and Ron and Hermione will be there too."

Damn Potter, what made him think he needed to take the train to Hogwarts instead of simply going through the fireplace.Snape's eyes went blank, and he calmly told Harry to leave.

Harry looked at Snape suspiciously, Occlumency?What made Snape need to use Occlumency when confronted with him, and Harry wondered if he had said anything to make Snape rage again.

Harry stepped into the Leaky Cauldron and saw his two friends waiting for him. Harry hugged them: "It's good to see you again."

Ron showed a weird expression, and said, "Did Snape do something to you that made you think this is the end of the world, buddy, living with Snape is hard, right?"

Harry and Hermione corrected him together: "Professor!" They looked at each other, thinking they were amused.

Hermione laughed, "Harry, I'm glad you realize that."

Ron curled his lips, showing an unacceptable expression.He suddenly thought of something, and said excitedly: "Fred and George went to see the fire/crossbow/arrow, Harry, fire/crossbow/arrow, you know it! It's really beautiful!"

Harry laughed, "Yes, I saw it a week ago."

Hermione interrupted the two boys who wanted to go deeper into the topic of Quidditch: "I think you should accompany me to buy a pet now."

"Oh, yes, my Scabbers needs to go there too. He's not very well, I don't think he's a good fit for Egypt, and he's been in a bad mood since he got back from there." Ron grimaced, sideways Touching Banban.

Harry snorted coldly in his heart, of course he was not well, he knew that Sirius had escaped from Azkaban.Harry said, "I know a Fantastic Beasts store somewhere." Harry made a point of taking Hermione to another store that had more owls, and the most important thing was that it wouldn't have Crookshanks suddenly popping in to catch Scabbers. .

Hermione happily picked out a gray and white owl. "She looks lovely. How about calling her Michelle, Harry."

"I think it's great." Harry nodded.

Ron's mouse, Scabbers, was lying on the counter, and the clerk, fiddled with Scabbers, said, "He looks bad, maybe he's going to die this year. You know the average house mouse or garden mouse like this lives up to three years. If you Livelier pets are needed and we have plenty here."

Ron said, "Oh, thanks, that's fine. Scabbers has been in our house for twelve years, and I figured I'd be nice to him."

The clerk put away his fingers that were fiddling with Scabbers in surprise, turned around and went to the store to get a bottle of yellow potion for Ron.

Ron asked, "What's this?"

"Pet spirit potion, I think your pet needs it."

"Oh, thanks." Ron paid the money and put Scabbers in his pocket and went out.Hermione was standing by the shop door feeding Michelle, her expression was very gentle, and Ron's face turned red instantly.Harry pretended he didn't see anything, and stepped forward to stroke Michelle.

Harry, Ron, and Hermione had been wandering around until dark before returning to the Leaky Cauldron, while Fred and George were taunting Percy's head of school line by line.Mrs. Weasley saw Harry, gave him a hug, and proudly expressed her delight to Harry, "This is the second Head Boy in the family!"

Harry offered his congratulations, and Fred and George broke the mood in an instant and started teasing Percy.

Harry figured he could talk to Mr. Weasley about Sirius ahead of time.After dinner, Harry asked Ron to go upstairs first, he still had something to do.Ron muttered, thinking of his messy luggage, he should go upstairs first.Harry took a deep breath, walked up to Mr. Weasley, and said, "Mr. Weasley, I think I have something to discuss with you."

Harry saw Mrs. Weasley give Mr. Weasley a warning look. "I, sir, I want to know how Sirius escaped from Azkaban. I know that he is my godfather, and I also know that he escaped to find me." Harry added in his heart, Of course not, just to find Peter Pettigrew.

Mr. Weasley frowned and asked seriously, "Who told you this?"

"My father's diary and group photos, I, yes, I didn't actually know that he came to see me, this was just my guess." Harry said, "But obviously I guessed right?"

Mr. Weasley pondered for a moment, and said, "The Ministry of Magic doesn't know how Black escaped. He's gone mad. He's no longer your godfather. Don't try to find him, promise me, Harry. "

Harry took a deep breath and said, "Mr. Weasley, have you ever thought that Sirius was wronged?"

"Harry!" Mr. Weasley said anxiously, "He is a supporter of You-Know-Who. He once used a spell to kill thirteen people, even his friends, who were also friends of James."

"Yeah, I know."

Mr. Weasley spoke quickly: "Harry, swear to me you won't go after Black. It's dangerous. If he's wronged, the Ministry will give him a fair one."

Harry said darkly, "I promise, I won't go to him."

Harry was woken up early the next day by Mrs. Weasley.Harry thought about how to find out the truth all night. He seemed to be in a bad mood due to lack of sleep, and the thought of being tortured by a dementor on the Hogwarts train made him even more depressed.And being knocked out by the dementors, and facing Draco's taunts for days, was even more frustrating for Harry.If Snape had been willing to teach himself the Patronus Charm, his situation would have been much better.

Harry clutched his robes as the train stopped, knowing what he was in for.The moment Harry's happiness was sucked away by the dementors, Harry heard his parents scream, saw a green light flash, saw Sirius fall behind the curtain, saw Snape being attacked by Najir... he Struggle to think happy things...

Harry's vision blurred when he was pushed awake, and he took off his glasses to feel the tears on his face.

"Harry, are you all right?" Ron asked nervously, "What happened?" He looked at Hermione bewildered.

"It's okay." Harry forced a smile.

Lupine handed Harry a bar of chocolate, "Eat it, it's good for you."

"Thank you."

Lupine smiled at Harry and patted Harry on the head.

Harry felt terrible, at least he didn't cry last time didn't he.When Harry got out of the car, he did meet Draco.He drawled his tone and said slowly, "I heard you cried, Potter. Did you really cry?"

Draco was annoying when he was childish, wasn't he?

Ron and Hermione stood in front of Harry.

"Hoho, our soft little Harry," said Draco triumphantly.

Harry smiled and said, "Dragon kiss."

Draco's face turned black instantly, and he pursed his lips, unable to say a word.

Ron joked quietly: "You two are disgusting."

"Potter." Snape's smooth, sarcastic voice sounded in his ear, "Come with me."

Ron gave Harry a sympathetic look, and Hermione followed the crowd into the Great Hall.Harry followed Snape without a clue. According to Harry's understanding, he should have been called by Professor McGonagall together with Hermione.Instead of being called away by Snape alone.

Snape took him to the cellar and said, "Potter, I will teach you how to defend yourself against dementors. You will have individual tutoring once a week until you have mastered it. Before that, I want you to learn about the Patronus curse."

Harry couldn't hide his surprise at all, he almost blurted out the fact that Snape had rejected his request before, but in fact, when he got to Hogwarts, he wanted to study with Lupine even more.

When Snape showed an expression of wanting to throw him out of the cellar, Harry suppressed his surprise and expressed his gratitude calmly.

"Every Wednesday. Potions tutoring."

Harry smiled knowingly, "Thank you, sir."

Snape said dryly, "You can go, then."

"Harry, why did Snape call you away?" Ron added quickly, "Professor."

"Ron, it's just a potions tutorial."

Ron yelled, "Potions tutoring?"

"Keep your voice down, Ron, it's actually a spell counseling."

Ron was completely dizzy: "What the hell?"

Harry didn't want to talk too much about it with him in the Great Hall, and asked, "Where's Hermione?"

"Being called away by Professor McGonagall, God knows how she will take so many classes this semester," Ron said.

"She'll take care of it, she's Hermione, isn't she," Harry said, and started tasting the buns on the table.He had already missed the Sorting Ceremony and only caught up with Dumbledore's speech.

Hermione hurried into the Great Hall, "Hey, how are you, Harry."

"I am fine."

Dumbledore introduced the two new professors for the term, and Harry was genuinely happy for Lupine and Hagrid, applauding them desperately.Harry involuntarily glanced at Snape, who was staring darkly at Lupine.Harry didn't understand why Snape had suddenly changed his mind about teaching him the Patronus Charm. Was it because Harry was knocked unconscious by a dementor on the train?Harry stared at Snape's greasy hair in a daze. After living in Spider's End all these days, he knew that Snape washed his hair every day. It was only because of brewing the potion that his hair looked greasy, at least it smelled It's not a sour smell, but a faint fragrance of potions.

"Harry?" Hermione pushed Harry with her hand, and Harry came back to his senses, oh, Merlin, he was looking at Snape in a daze.Fortunately, Snape was too busy hating Lupine to meet his gaze.

Snape looked at Harry with disgust as soon as Harry looked away.Damn Potter.

Hermione, who noticed all this, asked nervously, "Did something happen between you and Professor Snape?"

"Oh, yes, I asked Professor Snape to teach me the Patronus Charm during the summer vacation. He refused, but he suddenly agreed to me just now." Harry said, "Hermione, can you help me find someone who masters the Patronus Charm?" Skill?"

Hermione's attention was immediately focused on the Patronus Charm, and she said in surprise, "The Patronus Charm? This is not a simple spell. I will try my best."

Professor Trelawney in the prophecy class was still rambling, and Harry was fully aware of her details. You must know that she made only one accurate prediction in her life, oh, maybe it can be said to be two.Harry didn't want her prophecy to distract everyone from Transfiguration class, and Professor McGonagall was talking about the Animagi he needed to know in the next class.Harry watched Neville warily, gave the glass a Levitation Charm and a Reinforcement Charm just as he was about to break it.Professor Trelawney ran up to Neville suddenly nervously, and Neville was so frightened that he dropped the cup on the ground again, but strangely, the cup did not break.Just as she picked up the glass in Ron's hand and was about to say something, Harry beat her to say her lines.Professor Trelawney shook Harry's hand excitedly: "My child, you are very talented."

There were tacit snickers in the classroom.

This time, no one took Professor Trelawney's words seriously. The little lions of Gryffindor listened very carefully to Professor McGonagall's class.

"Harry?" Ron looked at Harry who was still buried in the pages of the book, and called out in doubt.Harry waved him to go to the auditorium first, and he wanted to ask Professor McGonagall a few questions.

Ron said sadly: "Harry, have you been assimilated by Hermione? Ouch—" Ron held the back of the head that was slapped heavily by Hermione, and looked at Hermione in horror, "Hermione! Why are you Appeared here suddenly?"

Hermione raised her head and said, "Let's go."

Professor McGonagall heard what Harry said to Ron and stayed here to wait for Harry.

Harry looked up and said seriously: "Professor McGonagall, Ron and I went to the Fantastic Beasts store before, and the clerk said that ordinary house mice live up to three years, but Scabbers has been at Ron's house for 12 years. I suspect he is very Possibly an Animagus."

Professor McGonagall laughed: "It's unlikely. Listen, Harry, I'm not boasting, but Animagus is indeed a very difficult form of transformation. You know, every Animagus is The Ministry of Magic registered."

Harry packed his things and said goodbye to Professor McGonagall.Harry wondered sullenly why everyone trusted the Ministry so much.

Harry shuffled toward the Great Hall, and Hermione raised her hand to beckon Harry as soon as she saw him."Hermione, what's the matter?" Harry asked.

"Harry, I went to the library to read the book on the Patronus Charm." When Hermione said this, Ron exclaimed, "My God, when did she go to the library?"

Hermione glanced at Ron, and continued: "The Patronus Charm is not something that ordinary wizards can master, it is a very profound magic. The spell to summon the Patronus is - Calling the Guardian." Hermione said , waving the wand and saying the spell, but nothing happened. "Concentrate and recall the happiest thing." Hermione tried again, she pursed her lips, and said, "The book says that when you first start practicing, the wand will only emit a faint light."

Harry comforted her: "Yes, this is not the level of ordinary wizards, is it? We are only in the third grade."

Hermione put away her wand in satisfaction and said, "Harry, eat quickly, class is about to begin." When they left the castle after lunch, the air was fresh and Harry's steps became brisk.On the slope going down to the Forbidden Forest, Harry saw three familiar figures from behind. He followed closely behind Draco. He must protect Draco this time. He didn't want Hagrid's first class to be destroyed Make a mess.

Although Harry was thinking this way, his wand was also in his hand, but when he saw Buckbeak waving his paw, he instinctively rushed towards Draco, keeping Draco behind him.Harry felt a tearing pain in his back and gradually fell into a coma.

After Harry woke up, he was lectured by Madam Pomfrey, and Harry lay on the bed and listened silently.As soon as Madam Pomfrey left, Hermione and Ron rushed to Harry, and Hermione exclaimed in a low voice, "Harry, are you okay?"

Harry forced a smile and said, "I'm fine, it's just the itching on my back. It's not very comfortable lying on my stomach."

Ron said in surprise: "Harry, why did you rush to save a Malfoy. Before that, he laughed at the fact that you were scared to cry by a dementor."

"It's nothing, I just don't want Malfoy to get hurt. I mean, if he gets hurt, Hagrid will be in trouble," Harry explained.

Draco, who was eavesdropping outside the medical wing, heard Harry say "I just don't want Malfoy to get hurt", his mind was buzzing, he even forgot his purpose of coming to the medical wing, and walked back in disbelief.He bumped headfirst into Snape, who was rushing to the hospital wing.

"Draco." Snape called glumly to Draco.

"Oh, Professor Snape, I'm sorry." Draco recovered and said timidly.

"What are you doing in the medical wing?"

"Nothing." Draco said, "Professor, I'm going first."

Snape slid into the hospital wing expressionlessly, delivered the potion to Madam Pomfrey, turned and walked towards Harry: "Potter."

Harry lay prone on the bed, looking back with difficulty, all he could see was the hem of Snape's robe.

He said tactfully, "Very well, reckless Gryffindor, you are just like your father. If you had any sense, you'd know that magic would be a better solution than Muggles. "Snape said and left with a shake of his robe.

Ron swallowed hard and said, "Did he come to mock you on purpose?"

"I think so," said Harry.Harry sighed, between him and Snape, the grievances between Snape and the Jiedao foursome were always separated.He always thought that Snape's resentment towards him came from his father, and his protection from his mother, Snape had never really seen Harry Potter.Harry began to sink into self-loathing again.

Hermione frowned, realizing that this matter was not simple ╮(‵▽′)╭

The author has something to say:

It was a great time to write about Professor Snape taking Harry to Diagon Alley.
