[HP] Subversion - Destined

Chapter 39 On the Hogwarts Express

On the express to Hogwarts, when I opened the door of the box, I heard Ron's distraught voice: "Hermione, I warn you! Tell your long-haired pig to stay away from my house Scabbers! Otherwise, I will turn it into a mug." Pad!" He glared at Hermione, his hands guarding his pet mouse lovingly.

"Crookshanks is a cat, Ron. It's only natural for cats to catch mice. You can't deprive animals of their instincts! What's more, your furry, stinky shoebrush came wandering in front of Crookshanks by itself!" Hermione looked confident, and the big ginger cat lying on her lap was wagging its tail once and for all, and the cat's eyes were unblinkingly staring at Scabbers.Scabbers writhed uneasily, trying to escape the grip, but Ron clearly thought it safer to keep it in his hands.

"Please, can you stop for a while? You've been arguing from the Leaky Cauldron over this issue." I sat down next to Ron, "Where are the others?"

"As long as this flat-faced monster with its head against the wall doesn't bother my Scabbers again!" Ron complained, and Hermione rolled her eyes, and she didn't bother to defend herself, "George and Fred took Ginny to another box— — I'm glad the seats were full when the three of them squeezed in, I don't want to try out some new gag product!"

"Draco's dealing with some issues with Slytherin," Hermione replied cryptically, and Ron seemed to mutter something.

"You don't need our help?" I asked thoughtfully, but she shook her head with a worried expression.

"Hey, can I sit here? There are no other boxes available." At this moment the door was opened, and Luna Lovegood was standing at the door holding several notebooks.

"Hi, Luna, long time no see. Feel free to sit." I nodded.

Luna smiled shyly, greeted each of us, and sat down beside Hermione: "It's so cute," she praised, looking at Crookshanks.Ron curled his lips in disapproval.

"Thank you." Hermione replied politely.Crookshanks shifted his eyes from Scabbers to Luna, raised his head, meowed and wagged his tail, then lazily lay down again.Because of Luna's arrival, we couldn't find a topic for a while, and everyone just sat quietly, looking a little cramped.

"Harry." Luna suddenly leaned over to me, "Thank you for borrowing my diary...it's very interesting." Her serious expression made the three of us twitch at the corners of our mouths and didn't know how to answer—I was During the holidays, I told others that the fragment of Riddle's diary was lent to Luna. Because of this, we can't understand the feeling that the book has no words, has been poked several times by the basilisk, and is covered with a lot of unknown liquid. What's so interesting about a slightly disgusting diary...

"I made a very interesting thing." Luna neatly placed the books she had been holding tightly in her arms on the table one by one. The first one was Riddle's diary, "One day I spilled ink on In the diary, a very miraculous thing happened——" She lowered her voice, adding a bit of a weird atmosphere to the air, and Ron, who was easily influenced by others and the environment, couldn't help shrinking back in his chair, "The ink seems to be sucked. Do the same and all disappear!"

—what a fuss.Knowing this feature for a long time, I tried my best to control myself not to show disdainful expressions, but the other two were stunned for a while.But the next thing I have to pay attention to is that this Ravenclaw elementary school girl actually created a notebook that can communicate with each other through Riddle's diary!Hermione was very interested in this, and she took Luna to discuss the production of the notebook. Ron was puzzled, and I began to think about inviting Luna to join DA.

Suddenly the train made an unpleasant scream and came to an emergency brake, and we suddenly staggered unprepared. "What's the matter?" Ron leaned on the seat with one hand, "Hey! Where are you going, Scabbers?!" The big mouse took the opportunity to break free from his grasp and slipped out through the slightly opened door, before we waited. In response, the big ginger cat meowed and chased after it.

"Crookshanks?!"

"Oh no! It must be going to catch my Scabbers!" Ron screamed and opened the car door and rushed out of the box, followed by Hermione.

The lights on the train flickered for a while, I scratched my hair, and it took me a long time to sort out my thoughts, and then my face changed, terrible!I forgot about the dementors! "Luna, you stay here and don't go out! There are some bad things outside... Once the lights go out, lock the door - don't let anything in!"

There was some confusion outside, no one knew why the train stopped midway, it had never happened before.I quickly found Ron, who was running around like a headless chicken: "It's not safe outside! We should go back to the box!"

"Come on, Harry, where's the danger on the Hogwarts Express? I've got to find Scabbers first! That's the longest-lived house mouse in the world - my mum will kill me if she finds out I've lost it! Oh !Damn long-haired pig!" Ron broke away from my hand and continued to search.

"Hey! It's clearly your stinky shoebrush that ran out by itself. Why do you blame my Crookshanks!" Hermione was very unconvinced.We were already close to the end of the car and chased into the end car where the sundries were placed to salute.

"Are you sure you're here?" I looked around at the big and small boxes that I didn't know what they were filled with. They kept shaking and shaking and making strange noises, and some of them were still spraying out unknown gas, as if they would never stop. Doubt we would have been sent to see Merlin for something unknown even if we hadn't encountered a dementor.

"This direction can only lead to here." Hermione called her cat and took the time to answer. As soon as she finished speaking, all the lights in the entire car were suddenly turned off, leaving darkness in front of her eyes.Ron screamed in a very tasteless way, and Hermione and I quickly lit our wands, and a chill gradually spread.

I rushed over to close the door in two or three steps, and looked at them with a pale face: "It's a dementor." Without waiting for them to ask, I quickly explained, "The dementors of Azkaban, they are hunting Sirius... ... Sirius Black, I should have gotten in the car to check. The Minister of Magic told me that I met two during the summer vacation."

"Then... what to do now?" Ron stared at the eerily quiet door in horror, "My Scabber...it's so pitiful! Not only will it be chased by monsters, but it will also face dementors!"

"There is only one way to get rid of the dementors, and that is the Patronus Charm." Hermione was much calmer than Ron, "Harry, you were learning it last semester, right? How are you doing now?"

My heart was beating violently and seemed to pop out at any moment. I tried to recall the feeling of joy at that time, and raised my wand: "ExpectoPatronum!" The silver goshawk came out in response, circled around us a few times, and finally landed on my arm, and the cold air was dispelled a lot.

Ron and Hermione looked at my Patronus in amazement, and I frowned and reminded: "It may only be enough for a quarter of an hour. Before that, we must rush back to the box—even if we can't find your pet."

"Hurry up, there's nothing here, let's go look inside." Ron shrunk his neck, and everyone's eyes focused on the last door, "There should be... no danger?"

I went to the front and nodded to Hermione, she waved her wand: "Alohomora! (Alohomora is open)" The door slammed open, and at the same time a red light shot towards me, I hurriedly put on armor and was forced to After taking a few steps back and falling to the ground, the silver eagle spread its wings and soared into the air, and died together with another magic that followed. "Harry?!" The other two came to help me in panic.

"Why are you here?" A strange and gentle voice came from the darkness, which miraculously soothed our nervousness. A young wizard appeared in our sight, his eyes were soft and his brows were faintly tired, worn out. His magic robe did not conceal his comfortable aura, and his gray and light brown hair seemed to indicate that he had experienced many vicissitudes.

Before we could answer, accompanied by a dog barking, a black shadow pounced on me, stuck out its tongue and smeared my face with saliva. "Sirius? Come back!" The strange wizard frowned and ordered hastily. The big black dog paused for a moment and gave me a sad look. After I patted his head, he jumped back unwillingly.

"I'm so sorry... I'm Remus Lupine, the new Defense Against the Dark Arts professor at Hogwarts." He looked at us carefully, and I could clearly feel his eyes lingering on me for a longer time, he understood Smiling, "You are from Gryffindor College. You came out to check because you were curious about why the train stopped suddenly?"

Just as Hermione was about to explain something, the door leading to the train aisle was suddenly knocked open, followed by a cold and decaying breath pouring into the carriage. "Back!" Lupine stood in front of us with two steps to face the dementors that filed in, "Expecto Patronum! (Call for God's Guard)" The silver patron saint, who looked like a wolf and a dog, sprang out from the tip of his staff, and rushed swiftly. forward.

"Who's in there?!" A deep and familiar voice came from outside the door, a silver doe drove the dementors into the carriage, and the seven Azkaban monsters were trapped in a small space by the patron saints. , I also summoned the Silver Eagle to protect us, and then I saw Snape walking in quickly with a gloomy face.

"Well, Well... Lupine... What are you doing out of the car? Walking the dog? (I quickly looked around and found that Sirius had disappeared at some point.) Or is it that years of down-and-out career have made you If you can't calm down, you have to find some work to stop your itchy hands?... Oh, there are still a few people here who don't know how to live or die..." The three of us involuntarily huddled together under Snapeson's cold gaze. group.
