[HP Sirius] Sweet Potions

Ursa crouched behind a thick hedge, the blades of grass tickling her face.Holding her breath, she saw a figure trotting towards this side through the gap in the fence.

"Oh, no." Sirius suddenly moaned in a low voice.He stood up and waved at the figure, "Hey, James!"

Only then did Ursa realize that the man was actually Sirius' good friend James Potter.

James looked a little surprised at the two people who suddenly appeared from behind the hedge, "It's you!"

"What happened?" Sirius said.

"That's exactly what I wanted to ask." James paused, his face pale and gasping with shock. "Listen, Padfoot—Moonface's gone!"

"What did you say?" Sirius' tone changed.

"A few guys tried to get in the Shrieking Shack, I think they heard something. But they couldn't get in, so they set fire to the Shrieking Shack door—" Jaime said Su said quickly, "Moon-face was startled. He jumped up and broke through the door. I couldn't stop him. I'm sorry, man."

As he spoke, Ursa noticed that the fabric on the shoulders was ripped and looked as if it had been torn by a beast.

"I see he seems to be running off into the woods over there—" James went on. "We've got to get to him quickly, Padfoot."

Sirius cursed a somewhat vulgar expletive, which he rarely did.

"Those bloody Death Eaters!" he swore angrily.

Then he glanced at Ursa, took a deep breath, and said, "Listen, Ursa—you hide somewhere first, I have to find the moon—I mean Remus. He might have Danger."

"I can help," Ursa said.

"Trust me, you can't help me with this matter." Sirius said worriedly, "Just listen to me this time, okay?"

Ursa immediately understood that something very urgent must have happened, otherwise Sirius would not have acted so panicked.She had never seen him look like this before.

"Go ahead," she said, looking at him, "be careful, okay?"

Sirius nodded.

James was already urging him, "Come on, Padfoot!"

Sirius twitched his lips as if trying to smile, but he couldn't.He squeezed Ersa's shoulder lightly, then turned around and ran away with James.

Ursa looked up at the sky.The Dark Mark was still clearly visible in the night sky, and I'm afraid it could be seen clearly from Hogwarts as well.

There must be chaos in the school right now.She could almost imagine the students panicked.

But what exactly are those Death Eaters up to?

Ursa knew they had always hated Muggles, so they occasionally raided Muggle cities, burning down a few churches and blowing up a few bridges.But they had no reason to raid a wizarding village.

Maybe they just want wizards to know how powerful and dangerous they are; they want wizards to bow down to them too.

— If only things were that simple.

Ersa wasn't going to risk turning back to the village.She intends to go around the edge of the village to observe the situation.

She walked a short distance down a dark country road.Soon, the Shrieking Shack appeared before her eyes.

The fire at the Screaming Shack was apparently out.But there was still a smell of burnt wood in the air.

Since the Dark Mark was right above the Shrieking Shack, she didn't go too close.

At this time, she vaguely saw two or three figures in front of her.

"Nobody here!" one of them yelled.

—Death Eaters?

Ersha's heart was lifted immediately.

But she soon realized that they were not wearing the black Death Eater robes.

"Damn it! Those Death Eaters are gone! We're late!" another man cursed.

Ursa recognized his voice immediately.He is one of the Aurors stationed at Hogwarts.

After knowing that those people were Aurors, Ersha couldn't help but secretly heaved a sigh of relief.

Suddenly, one of them turned sharply in Ersa's direction, "Who's there?"

Ursa didn't want to be misunderstood as a Death Eater, so she hurriedly shouted: "It's me! Ursa Green, the teacher at Hogwarts!"

"Miss Green?" said the man in surprise, walking quickly towards her.He looked surprised, "I'm Johnny Robert, remember me?"

Of course Ursa remembered him.He is Mrs. Robert's son and an Auror.

At this moment, a huge explosion sounded.

Everyone looked in the direction of the explosion in surprise. Ersha remembered that it was the big lake at the foot of the castle.

The flames lit up nearly half the lake—it must have been magic fire, for it burned too strongly where there were no trees.

"Oh, my God," Johnny said in shock, "the road over there leads to Hogwarts, they must have blown up the only road to Hogwarts!"

Ersha froze for a second, turned around and looked at Johnny with a bloodless face.Her hair is rapidly turning bright orange.

"Hogwarts is in danger!" she said hoarsely.

There is only one road around the lake from Hogsmeade to Hogwarts, and the rest of the road is covered by dense and dangerous woods.

The only way to get from Hogsmeade to the castle is by that road, or by boat on the lake.

"The place they are really going to attack is Hogwarts—" Ursa felt her tongue was about to tie up, "they attacked Hogsmeade village just to attract your attention and want to get you out of Hogwarts." Bring it out!"

"But how do we go back to the castle now? They burned all the ships on the dock!" One of the female Aurors frowned.

"Secret passage!" Ursa suddenly yelled, "I've heard that there is a secret passage leading to the castle in Hogsmeade village!"

"I've never heard of secret passages," said another Auror.

In the end, it's disappointing that none of the Aurors are aware of the existence of the Secret Passage.

Because Ursa couldn't tell where the secret passage was, the Aurors didn't believe what she said.

"I'll see if there's a spare ship," said an Auror.

"I'll take a look at that lane," Johnny said. "Tom, you and Ben go and see what's going on in the village."

They quickly assigned tasks, and then scattered.

Ursa didn't think it was a good time to split up, but she had no right to command the Aurors.

"I know a man who knows where the secret passage is," she said to Johnny. "He's been in the woods over there."

"you sure?"

"yes, I'm sure."

Johnny hesitated, "Then I'll accompany you to find him."

Erza was a little surprised because he didn't need to.They are not even considered friends.

"I also want to find my way to Hogwarts as soon as possible." Johnny said with a smile, "Let's go."

Ersa walked into the dark forest, and Johnny followed her closely.

This dense forest actually belongs to the border area of ​​the Forbidden Forest, so the degree of danger is no less than that of the Forbidden Forest.But Ursa felt no fear at all.She just wants to find Sirius now, only he knows where the secret passage is.

"Sirius?" she called tentatively.

But the only response to her was the whistling wind in the Forbidden Forest.

With her lit wand, she listened carefully to any small sound around her.

After a few minutes, she finally heard a sound coming from the depths of the dense forest.

But that voice made her hair stand on end—it was definitely not a human voice.

The low roar of the beast came faintly along the wind, and it was particularly terrifying in the dark and gloomy forest.

"What's that?" Johnny asked softly.

Erza shook her head slightly.She clutched her wand tightly, every muscle in her body tensed.

At this moment, the roar suddenly approached.

Whatever it was, Ursa could clearly feel that it was approaching them quickly.

In the sky just behind her, a wisp of cloud slowly drifted away from above the full moon.Under the reflection of the Dark Mark, the slightly pale moonlight shone in the dark forest.

— After a few seconds, she finally saw what it was.

She had seen that thing once.When she was 13, she and her father saw one in the forest on the Swedish border.It was an experience she will never forget in her lifetime.

The creature was panting heavily, and a pair of terrible eyes were fixed on it.It bent its body, and could vaguely see the shape of the original human being.

But Ersha knew that it was completely dominated by the wild at this moment.

"Run!" she heard Johnny yell.

She turned and staggered forward after him.

She could hear the werewolf following them.It was moving so fast that she knew they would be overtaken and torn to shreds in no time.

She gripped her wand tightly, regretting why she hadn't learned more offensive magic.

Johnny turned back and cast a spell on the werewolf, but obviously, he failed.The werewolf is so fast and covered by trees that it's impossible to hit it with a spell in this situation.

At this moment, Johnny suddenly let out a scream.

Ursa turned her head and saw the werewolf pounce on Johnny.Roaring frantically, it tore Johnny's shirt, claws digging deep into his flesh.

Ursa was so frightened that her blood froze.She could even smell the faint smell of blood in the air.

She screamed all the offensive spells she knew, one of which hit the werewolf in the neck.

The werewolf shook, but the spell didn't work on it.It let go of Johnny immediately, and Johnny turned over on the ground, struggled to get up, and then staggered away to the other side of the dense forest.

Ursa took half a step back, then turned sharply, and sprinted forward with all her strength.

She ran around the trees, trying to stun the werewolf behind her.But she knew that she couldn't hold on for too long.

She fumbled in her pocket—there was healing potion, antidote potion, and a bottle of purple hair dye potion, which she used in class yesterday, but she just forgot to take it out of her pocket.Damn, why didn't she go out with a bottle of poison? !She cursed herself secretly, while thinking quickly about countermeasures.

Just then, she heard the werewolf's scorching breathing almost close at hand.

She took out the bottle of hair dye in her pocket, then waved the hair dye violently into the air.

The purple potion magically turned into a fine powder when it met the air, forming a beautiful purple smoke that stood between her and the werewolf.

The werewolf stopped, seemingly confused by the sudden appearance of smoke.

Erza raised her wand, knowing she only had one chance.

She took a deep breath, and just as she was about to say the spell, she heard a loud dog barking not far away.

She was startled to see a huge black dog emerging from the bushes.It quickly wrestled into a ball with the werewolf.It whimpered in pain, one black eye was scratched by the werewolf's claws, and the hair on its face was wet with blood.It tried to subdue the werewolf, while looking at Ursa with its good eye, as if urging her to do something.

Of course Ursa knew who he was, she gasped, "Sirius?!"

At this moment, she was surprised to find that the werewolf gradually became less aggressive.The black dog bit the back of its neck, but didn't really hurt it.Soon, the werewolf whimpered, struggled to stand up, and staggered towards the depths of the dense forest.

The black dog fell to the ground panting.Soon, he returned to his original human form.

Ursa knelt down on the ground, "Oh no - Sirius."

The black-haired boy was closing his eyes tightly, his face pale.His face was covered with blood, and there was a hideous wound under the bottom of his left eye.He weakly opened his good eye and looked at Ersa, and seemed to want to say something by pulling the corner of his mouth.

"Don't talk." Ursa felt that her hands were almost shaking.She took out the healing potion, poured a third of it on Sirius' eyes, and then fed the rest of the potion to Sirius.

"Drink it," she said tremblingly. "Drink it and you'll be fine."

Sirius drank the potion with difficulty.The wound on his eye has stopped bleeding and is healing quickly.

He raised his sleeve and wiped the blood from his face, looked up at Ersha with one eye, and asked weakly, "...how did you come after me?"

Ursa didn't answer the question, but asked eagerly, "Do you have any other injuries?"

"I think I sprained my ankle a bit, but it's not a big deal." Sirius replied hoarsely.

"By the way, Hogwarts!" Ursa exclaimed suddenly.

Sirius looked at her in bewilderment, "What?"

"Tell me," Ursa stared at him eagerly, "where is the secret passage at Hogwarts?"
