[HP] Subversion - Destined

Due to the unexpected arrival of the dementors, all students were ordered to stay in the common room, leaving Hogwarts empty.Snape almost lifted me away from the two peacocks all the way, and I sensibly kept quiet until I ran into Lupine hurrying head on.

"Harry! Are you alright?" Lupine looked tired, the full moon had just passed, and before that, Snape had been taking DADA lessons.His eyes lit up when he found me, and his originally worried expression eased a lot, "I just learned that you were attacked by a dementor..."

Snape let go of the back of my collar, took a step forward consciously or unconsciously, and blocked me just before Lupine was about to touch me: "Obviously there is no lack of arms or legs... The golden boy will not realize how reckless he is."

"I'm fine with Remus. It was Sev...Professor Snape who saved me." I ignored Snape's habitual sarcasm, walked around him and gave Lupine a soothing smile, and then faced his increasingly bleak eyes again. Face, "Professor, can I let Professor Lupine take me back?"

Snape narrowed his eyes: "Potter, do you know what you're talking about? Did you get your memory drained by a dementor or did you get your head slapped by a hippogriff? I don't think you don't understand. , a werewolf who has to rely on potions made by others to temporarily relieve his furry little problem, the current state of the werewolf who can be subdued easily even by little wizards like you who haven't grown all hair yet, what help can you offer... "

An unconscious gloomy look flashed across Lupine's face, but his gentle smile remained unchanged. I held his arm and looked at Snape without hiding the dissatisfaction in my eyes: "Professor, I know that I What are you talking about, neither was your memory drained by a dementor nor your head was slapped by Barcobeak... so I clearly understand that the dementor has been kicked out of Hogwarts castle by Professor Dumbledore, Sirius No chance to sneak in under martial law - it's safe now!"

Snape didn't seem to expect that I would contradict him, he raised his eyebrows, his eyes were burning with dark anger, but he just stared at me fiercely like this, and after a few seconds, he hid his anger back to the depths: "Well... ...A stupid lion who has not received a real lesson will never know how to write the word vigilance!"

I think Snape is a little unreasonable, no matter how much he hates Lupine, he shouldn't expose the fact that Lupine is a werewolf so bluntly, sarcasm is his style-maybe Hufflepuff's gold cup is not to him It didn't matter...I squeezed the lapis lazuli in my hand, hesitated for a while and still didn't send it out. With his awkward personality, he probably wouldn't accept it...especially in front of Lu Ping.I frowned with a headache: "Professor Snape, let's go first." I leaned slightly, pulled Lupine back and turned around quickly away from Snape's sight.

After hastily turning two corners, I breathed a sigh of relief and slowed down: "I'm sorry Remus, he didn't do it on purpose... Uh, for some reason, even my personality has been affected a little recently. But don't worry, Lockhart gave me a necklace that can stabilize my mind... but I don't think I'm the one who needs it the most..."

"Harry, you want to give it to Snape?" Lupine ruffled my hair.

"...He won't take it." Playing with the sapphire in my hand, I haven't put it on my neck for a long time.

"But Harry, you are obviously more affected. You should trust Snape. He has a stoic temperament and is very good at controlling his emotions. You see, he just spoke too much today, and he has always hated me. I have already Get used to it, you don't need to apologize for him." Lupine shrugged nonchalantly.

"Okay... I think you're right..." Suppressing the uneasiness in my heart, I put the necklace in my pocket, thinking in a daze, maybe he doesn't like me wearing things from others, subconsciously turned my right hand The ring on, uh, can I understand that he is jealous?

Back in the Gryffindor common room, everyone was still talking about dementors, and the patron saint of the professors.My return was greeted like a hero, and everyone was eager to know how I managed to break out of the encirclement alone against countless dementors thousands of feet in the air, apparently automatically ignoring Snape's presence.I only had time to tell a worried Hermione that Draco was okay before I was overwhelmed by the enthusiastic crowd.It wasn't until Ginny asked shyly if she could see my patron saint, and when the silver eagle appeared in front of everyone with a rather haughty attitude, that the attention of these curious little lions was diverted.

"It's not something to be happy about. The Nimbus was torn apart by the Whomping Willow." I finally squeezed my way to Hermione and Ron and complained, trying to look a little more depressed.

Ron, who was still showing a hint of jealousy, suddenly widened his eyes: "What? What should I do then?!"

"Let the Ministry of Magic pay Harry! It's all because they put dementors into Hogwarts and almost killed you!" Hermione was filled with righteous indignation, "I've seen it all! If Bacobeak hadn't arrived in time, the consequences would have been disastrous ...I really wonder what everyone is excited about! In this case, you should be worried about you!"

"Hermione, you don't know...Our dormitory is full of candy, gift, sympathy cards—and love letters!" Ron said with a tangled expression, "It's only an afternoon!"

"You guys deal with it, I need to rest now..." I patted Ron weakly, shuffled back to the dormitory and fell headfirst on the bed.

Since then, both Sirius and Dementors have stopped a lot during this period. With the lapis lazuli sent by Lockhart, I feel that everything has returned to normal, and I will not lose my temper at every turn. I even successfully brewed in the Room of Requirement. Take Wolfsbane Potion.After being tested by Snape, the master of potions, Lupine's furry little problem was justifiably thrown to me by him...

Because of Barcobeak's brilliant performance in the Quidditch match, Hagrid once again set off a small climax in the Protection of Magical Creatures class. Hagrid was beaming all day long, and he became more and more energetic, and he was so excited that he almost wanted to introduce Aragog, the eight-eyed spider, was known to the little animals in Hogwarts, but fortunately he was stopped by us.For this reason, Hagrid humbly asked us what kind of teaching method everyone likes, and avoided Ron and Draco's strong request to bring back Noble Dragon who was originally sent away to stay for a few days for fear of chaos. After the proposal, everyone came up with many good ideas, which significantly improved Hagrid's teaching quality.

The novelty of one or two trips to Hogsmeade has passed, and I am not very enthusiastic about it. After all, it takes two hours to drill the tunnel each time, which is really not worthwhile.Draco was still flirting with his father about Quidditch, and as for the Nimbus two thousand, everyone in Gryffindor seemed to be counting on someone to give me a broom again, and every time the owls came When delivering a letter or a package, everyone will look for it hopefully, and then lower their heads in disappointment.I don't know if I should expect Sirius to send me a rocket crossbow, but I'll mail order one myself after Christmas.

The long-awaited Christmas break has finally come, and Ron and I are still at Hogwarts.In the morning, we happily got up to open the presents as usual, and I received the long and narrow package—the rocket crossbow—as I wished.

"Harry, who do you think it will be from?" Ron was still very excited to discuss the latest broom until the evening, "Who would give such an expensive gift without signing it?"

"Ron, we've been talking all day, it's not Professor Dumbledore, it's not Professor McGonagall, it's not Professor Lupine - we've guessed everything we can think of, now I just want to have a good meal Christmas dinner!" I walked quickly to the auditorium, "Don't worry, no matter who sent it, I will let you sit on it anyway, but not now, we have to find a place where there are no people, the rocket crossbow can be used as a Gryffindor's secret weapon!"

In fact, I am also eager to try, after all, the rocket crossbow is currently the fastest broom, and its price is even more expensive than the entire Slytherin team's Nimbus 2001!At the same time, I expressed my doubts about Sirius being able to afford such an expensive thing. After all, he is currently on the run. Could it be that he didn’t buy it but stole it... I suddenly began to doubt whether it was really a gift from Sirius... Perhaps it should be checked by the professors first?

I was in a trance thinking about not stopping my feet, but when I turned a corner, I bumped into a wall of flesh. "Ouch!" My eyes blurred, and my body fell backwards. Reflexively, I stretched out my hands and scratched to stabilize my body. In the end, I pulled to the corner of the black robe, and the owner of the black robe—Snape was also caught by me. Take a stagger.

"Potter! Are your eyes growing up to the toad's head?!" Snape straightened me roughly to make sure my feet were firmly planted on the ground without staggering. Professor Collision deducted ten points from Gryffindor?"

"Severus, today is Christmas." Another serious female voice spoke in time, and I, including the shivering Ron, noticed that there were people beside Snape—Professor McGonagall and the always nervous Trelawney.The snake king's aura is so strong that we automatically ignore other existences.

"Oh, my poor child..." Trelawney looked at me with the look of pity that had been on her face all day, and then gradually showed panic, "Merlin! You have received a gift that cannot appear! It is The dog spirit... must be the dog spirit!!"

The other two professors were obviously used to her "prophecies" that were tinged with tragedy from time to time, so they didn't take her words seriously at all, but Ron and I clearly thought of what gift she was referring to, and Ron blurted out: "You How did you know Harry received a rocket crossbow?!"

Immediately, two disapproving gazes were fixed on me at the same time, and Professor McGonagall's expression became more serious: "Rocket crossbow? You received a rocket crossbow? Who gave it?"

I almost groaned with a headache. I thought that Hermione's mixed rocket crossbow would not be confiscated. I never thought that Ron would be the first to leak it out of his mouth... Trelawney was also responsible for it .I can almost foresee the scene where the unheated rocket crossbow is torn apart without Wood convincing Professor McGonagall, and with the addition of Snape, who hates Quidditch very much.Ron obviously realized that he had said the wrong thing, and he looked at me apologetically, wanting to apologize but not being able to speak in front of the professors.

"Yes, a rocket crossbow, without a signature, we can't guess who sent it." I didn't have the strength to say anything more.

Looking at Snape, Professor McGonagall couldn't help but smile, "An unexpected Christmas present...I think you can bring it to us, Potter—I hope it's now."

"There's nothing wrong with it!" I argued in vain, and even Ron realized the fate of the Rocket Crossbow.

"I hope you're not stupid enough to rely on your troll-like instincts to just go for a ride on a broomstick sent by some stupid dog with bad intentions without any safety checks - I'd love to enjoy you darling The roots of my ears were clean while staying in the medical wing." Snape said in an almost cheerful and gloating tone, "It doesn't take too long, a few weeks is enough for us to take it apart and examine it carefully to ensure that the wizarding world The great savior is in no possible danger."
