【HP】Sugar Bowl

Rachel and Li didn't go back until Monday night, because the fifth graders were taking their OWLs, and they, the seniors, just had a day off.

Before leaving, George gave Rachel a bag of candy and said, "Will you take this to Ginny?"

Rachel raised her eyebrows and asked, "Don't you have mine?"

George winked at her and said, "Go back and look in your medicine chest."

Rachel smiled and kissed him, then asked, "Without Ron?"

"He's a big boy! Shouldn't be thinking too much about candy."

Rachel nodded knowingly, and said, "Ginny is the only biological child in your family."

George grinned and said, "If Ginny wants to, she can share some with him."

"Don't worry, I will bring them."

George put his arms around her and kissed her again, and said, "I love you."

Rachel smiled sweetly: "Me too."

When Rachel and Lida returned to Hogwarts, they found that the students who were supposed to be celebrating the end of the exam gathered in twos and threes, with fear and worry on their faces, and the atmosphere was very abnormal.

Rachel grabbed a student and asked, "What happened?"

The junior student was so frightened that she couldn't figure it out, and said nonchalantly: "Umbridge led people to attack Hagrid, and then those people hit Professor McGonagall, and she was injured!"

"What?" Rachel and Lida called at the same time.

They glanced at each other and ran to the school hospital together.When they rushed to the school hospital, Madam Pomfrey said to them: "Professor McGonagall was picked up by St. Mungo's people, and Harry came to ask about it just now. I really feel sorry for you students who care so much about Professor McGonagall." Congrats on her."

Rachel asked, "How is Professor McGonagall?"

Madam Pomfrey shook her head and said: "It wasn't very good when it was first delivered, four stun spells hit her and almost killed her, but when St. Mungo's people arrived, her condition was stable I'm sure they'll cure her."

Rachel and Lida breathed a sigh of relief, they bid farewell to Madam Pomfrey, and walked back slowly.

Rounding the corner, they saw Neville and Ginny being dragged into Umbridge's office by two members of the Special Operations Squad.

Lida immediately pulled Rachel to hide, and Rachel whispered, "What's going on?"

"Maybe they did something and got caught," Lida said.

Rachel drew out her wand and cautiously approached Umbridge's office, and Lida also drew out her wand and followed her closely.

Rachel took a pair of extendable ears out of her pocket and sneaked them into Umbridge's office.

After listening for a while, they probably understood why they were arrested by Umbridge. Harry wanted to secretly use the Floo network in Umbridge's office, and asked his friends to help watch the wind, but they were all arrested.

When Rachel was about to speak, she saw Lida make a "shh" gesture, then quickly reacted and cast an invisibility spell on herself.

Immediately afterwards, they saw Snape coming out of Umbridge's office quickly and leaving quickly.

They did not undo the spell until they could no longer see his figure.Rachel frowned and said, "Just now Harry seemed to be saying that Padfoot was caught."

Lida's face immediately turned pale when she heard her words, "Siris..."

Rachel said in surprise, "Siris? You said Padfoot is Sirius?"

Lida didn't bother to answer her words, turned around and was about to run, but Rachel quickly grabbed her and said, "Wait, let's not talk about where Harry got the news, even if it is true, you don't know about him." Where were you caught?"

After hearing this, Lida stopped in her tracks. She changed the direction and planned to rush into Umbridge's office.

Rachel quickly pressed her down and said, "I have a solution! Let's see if the news is true!"

Lida looked at her with a flustered and nervous expression. Seeing that she was no longer struggling, Rachel let her go, then quickly took out her medicine box, and found a double-sided mirror from inside.

She opened the double-sided mirror and called into it: "Mom! Mom! Are you there?" They waited for a while, but there was no response from the other side of the double-sided mirror.

Seeing this, Lida quickly got up and rushed towards Umbridge's office. Rachel couldn't stop her, so she ran in the opposite direction and hid in a corner.

She couldn't see what was going on in Umbridge's office, so she could only rely on the extendable ears to listen to what was going on in the office, while continuing to call the person opposite the double-sided mirror.

Suddenly, she had a flash of inspiration, and she took out her wand and whispered a spell: "Call God to protect you!" A silver-white woodpecker flew out of the wand, and Rachel said, "Go to Black's house and find Sirius to see if he is there." !" The woodpecker flew around her affectionately, and then flew out of the castle.

As soon as Rachel's woodpecker flew out, she saw Umbridge's office door open again. She hid quickly, cast another invisibility spell on herself, and watched Umbridge point his wand at Lida, Hermione, and the others. Harry came out.

It looked like their wands were all put away, and Umbridge was threatening to walk out.Rachel forced herself to calm down, not to rush forward to save them impulsively.

It wasn't until they walked out of the castle that Rachel quietly moved to the door of Umbridge's office, kicked open the door of her office, and threw a stun spell over before everyone could react.

The spell accurately hit the Slytherin student controlling Ginny. Seeing this, the other Slytherin students waved their wands and cast spells on her. Rachel got short and rolled out of Umbridge's office again. Dodge those flying spells.

She heard in her telescopic ears that the controlled DA members in the office also resisted, and rushed into Umbridge's office again, throwing a few stun spells to help them.

After a chaotic brawl, the DA members subdued the group of Slytherins and retrieved their wands from them.

"Why are you here?" Ginny asked Rachel.

Rachel said: "We just came back from George and the others. When we were looking for you, we saw you and Neville being taken into Umbridge's office by them, so we followed. Harry said what happened when Sirius was arrested ?”

Ron faltered and said, "...Harry had a dream... He said that Sirius was captured by... the mysterious man and was tortured..."

Rachel asked in surprise: "Didn't you tell him to learn the Occlumency Curse? What's in his head is simply unbelievable! That's..." Before she could finish speaking, Rachel suddenly realized that she couldn't continue. down.

Luna asked curiously: "What's in his mind?"

Rachel pretended not to hear, she said: "Anyway, I just asked my patron saint to find Sirius, just wait a little longer, and we will know that this dream is not true at all."

Ginny shook her head and said, "I'm afraid Harry won't listen at all now."

Neville found the wands of the three of Harry from the Slytherin students who fell on the ground, and said, "We'd better go rescue them first, and then talk about the next plan."

Rachel sighed, cast a tracking spell, and led them outside.

Following the tracking spell, they ran all the way to the Forbidden Forest, and saw a giant and a group of centaurs running far away.

Rachel was out of breath, "...Merlin!...So...is that a giant...?"

No one answered, they discussed how to save Sirius as soon as they met.

Rachel finally got her breath. She ran to them and said loudly, "Don't be so impulsive! Wait a few more minutes, and we'll be able to confirm whether the news is true or not!"

Harry said angrily: "Wait a few more minutes, maybe Sirius is dead!"

"Harry!" Rachel's voice almost turned into a scream. She grabbed Harry's shoulder and said, "That dream was fake! You can't believe it! Calm down!"

Harry became even more excited, and he roared: "How do you know it's fake? Last time I relied on my dream to save Ron's father's life!"

Rachel said, "Do you remember the last time we X-rayed you? Your dream, that thing was doing it! It was fake!"

Breathing heavily, looking calmer, Harry asked, "What's that?"

Rachel shook her head and refused to say: "I promised Dumbledore, but I can't tell you yet!"

This sentence made Harry's anger that had been fading away rise again. He shook off Rachel's hand and said, "Dumbledore said it, Dumbledore said it again! He is now Not at school! No one can find him! Don't know where he is!"

He turned to look at his little friend and said, "I'm going to find Sirius, you guys go back to the castle!"

Ron yelled, "What do you mean we should go back to the castle? I'll go wherever you go!"

"I'm coming with you too!" said Hermione.

Hearing what they said, Ginny, Luna, and Neville also refused to go back to the castle. Neville said, "We are all DA members, how could we leave the three of you to fight the mysterious man?"

Lida also said impatiently, "Sirius is my father!"

"What?" Ginny exclaimed in surprise.

"Yes, he is my father, so I can't ask you to save him, and I am waiting for the news!" Lida said firmly.

This was the first time Rachel felt that this group of Gryffindors were so difficult to deal with, and she really wanted to dig their brains to see what was inside.

Unable to stop them, and unable to let them go to such a dangerous place, Rachel could only say: "Well, I can't stop you, but Luna, you should go back to the castle!"

Luna looked at Rachel with those big eyes and asked, "Why? Am I not friends with you?"

Rachel opened her mouth and said with some embarrassment: "I didn't mean that..."

Luna said, "Then I will go too."

Harry interrupted their conversation impatiently, saying: "The key to the problem is not who will go, but how we will go!"

Luna looked under a big tree and said, "Fly over."

Rachel looked in the direction she was looking and said, "Thestrals."

Ron looked at the big tree blankly, and asked Rachel, "Can you see it too?"

Rachel snorted and said, "I've been in St. Mungo's since I was 13! I've probably seen more dead people than you know people."

Ron silently murmured his nose, and muttered softly, "I thought St. Mungo could save everyone."

Harry ignored them and walked straight up to a Thestral, which he mounted.The others also walked over with him, and Neville and Luna had each picked out a Thestral and sat on it.

Lida, Ginny, Hermione, and Ron still stayed where they were, Lida looked at Rachel, gave her a pleading look, and said, "Help us, Rachel."

Reluctantly, Rachel helped them sit on the Thestrals, muttering: "If you will listen to me, wait a little longer, and you will know whether the news is true or not."

They pretended not to hear her, and Rachel sighed and mounted a Thestral herself.They looked at her in surprise, and Rachel asked, "What's wrong?"

Ginny said, "I thought you weren't going."

Rachel said angrily: "One more person means more security. Of course I want to go with you!"

Harry interrupted them and said, "Okay, let's go together, let's go!" Everyone nodded, and they flew towards the sky one by one.

Sliding off the Thestral, Rachel felt her whole body go stiff.She shook her legs and stretched.

The Patronus Charm cast at school still hasn't brought back any news, which made her wonder if Sirius was really caught.

She quickly dismissed the idea, because their entry into the Ministry of Magic was so smooth.Lida glanced at her and gave her a wink, and Rachel understood that she, too, had discovered that this was a trap.

It was impossible for Harry to retreat now, but it was possible to quarrel and expose their position.So neither of them spoke, just clenched the wands in their hands, and secretly guarded.

Lida and Rachel, one behind the other, carefully guarded the group of juniors, paying full attention to their surroundings.

They entered a courtroom, and Rachel was still observing the movement outside the door until she heard Harry ask, "Who's there?" She looked back subconsciously, and saw Harry slowly approaching a curtain.

Rachel's heartbeat was almost frightened by him, and she hurriedly shouted: "Stop! Don't get close there!"

They heard her voice, looked back at her, and Harry asked, "Why?"

Rachel was already a little dissatisfied with Harry's disobedience, and when she heard him ask this question, she said impatiently, "Sirius can't be there, unless he's dead!"

Harry frowned, looked at the curtain, then at Rachel, "You mean..."

"Now is not the time to talk about this, since you are looking for the place in the dream, then act quickly!"

Harry could tell that Rachel didn't think they were looking for Sirius, but wanted to find the place in his dream, he was a little angry, but now is not a good time to argue, he could only hold his breath, Continue to search for the place in the dream.

After finding two more houses, they came to the place Harry had dreamed about.Different from their joy, Rachel's heart was more anxious, and she saw the expression on Lida's face as well, which was the uneasiness before the danger came.

Rachel forced herself to observe the surrounding terrain and environment. The room was filled with all kinds of clocks. The ticking sound was very annoying, but unexpectedly calmed her down.

She realized that what they needed to do now was buy time, whether it was Harry's warning to Snape when Umbridge was in his office, or the Patronus she sent to find Sirius, someone would know something was wrong with them up.

Even if these two methods fail to make the Order of the Phoenix understand, then George will definitely realize that something is wrong with her, because before she entered the Ministry of Magic, she secretly contacted George with their modified Gold Gallon, so now they All you have to do is procrastinate.

They walked all the way to the innermost room, which was filled with shelves, and the shelves were full of glass balls.

They passed through the towering glass sphere and came to the location of Harry's dream.Harry persisted in searching for the possible location of Sirius, but everyone else understood that the dream was probably true and false.

Rachel turned her mind quickly, she was thinking, what on earth did Voldemort want to bring Harry here?If it was just to kill him, then they could have done it as soon as they entered the Ministry of Magic, and Harry and the others didn't even have their wands out.

Voldemort must have had something to do with bringing him here, think about it, Rachel, think about it!

When she saw the glass ball on the shelf, she had a flash of inspiration, yes, there are only this kind of glass balls here, so what he wants is this glass ball, but what are these glass balls?

Before Rachel could figure it out, Harry reached out to grab one of the glass balls.Rachel noticed the figure behind them almost immediately, and she quickly got into a fighting stance.

The figure slowly came out of the shadows, and said lazily, "Very well, Potter, now turn around slowly and give it to me."

Then other shadows appeared beside them, and Rachel carefully protected Ginny and Luna, keeping them behind her as much as possible.But Ginny was not a coward willing to hide behind others, she took a slight step forward, and stood shoulder to shoulder with Rachel.

While Harry was negotiating with them, Rachel tried not to move her lips too obviously, and said softly to Ginny: "Catch me later, we will Apparate outside."

Ginny tugged her sleeve knowingly, signaling that she understood, and then quietly held hands with her companions.

Just as they were getting ready, Harry yelled "Go" and almost everyone cast a spell, but Rachel's Apparation failed, and the place was covered with the same spell as Hogwarts, which is not allowed here Use apparition.

Fortunately, the other people used the Bone Crushing Curse to delay everyone for some time, Rachel signaled Lida to go ahead to open the way for them, and she kept throwing silent spells around at the end of the crowd to delay them for some time.

Rachel dodged one spell and threw two more. She signaled Harry and the others to hide quickly, but Harry grabbed her and pulled her out of the door.

"Quickly imprison!" After she also went out, Hermione chanted a curse at the door.

Lida, Ron, Luna, and Ginny were nowhere to be seen. Rachel led the others to the outermost side and said anxiously, "Go first, I'll go find them!"

"No!" The three refused in unison.

Rachel ignored their refusal, and pulled them out forcefully, saying, "Don't be childish! Go! If you escape, quickly bring in rescuers!"

Harry dodged her hand and said, "I'm not leaving, they're here because of me, and I'm going to take them back!"

Rachel was furious, she growled, "There are 12 Death Eaters in this room, why do you think you can bring them back?"

Harry looked at her stubbornly, and Rachel knew she couldn't resist him, so she turned to Hermione and Neville and said, "Hermione! You should know the seriousness of the problem, we need help, otherwise we will all die here! "

Hermione's rationality told her that she should listen to Rachel, but emotionally, she couldn't let go of her friend.

Rachel said to Neville again: "Listen! Neville, protect Hermione and get rescuers! Whether we can survive depends on whether you find rescuers in time!"

Neville seemed reluctant to abandon his friend like this and leave by himself, but Hermione firmly took his hand and said to Rachel: "You have to wait for us to come back!" Rachel nodded to her, she Glancing at Harry again, he pulled Neville and ran out quickly.

As soon as their figures were out of sight, the voice of a Death Eater came from behind the closed door, and Harry immediately pulled Rachel to hide under the table.

"They may have run into the hall!" said a gruff voice.

"Check under the table," said another.

Rachel grabbed Harry who was about to cast a spell, shook her head, and threw a silent spell at the man before he could bend over.The Death Eater fell to the ground without a sound. His companion looked around vigilantly, but he didn't know where the spell came from.

Rachel winked at Harry again, gesturing for the countdown, and Harry grasped his wand knowingly.The moment she counted to three, they both yelled at the Death Eaters standing outside: "Disarm!"

"All petrochemical!"

The man escaped all of Rachel's petrification, but the wand came out of his hand. Rachel didn't care whether the aim was right or not, so she cast a spell on the direction in which he was holding the wand: "Bones to pieces!"

The spell missed his wand, just enough to hit the hand of the Death Eater who was trying to grab it. "Ah!" He screamed, fell to the ground, and rolled in pain.

"Swoon!" Harry cast a spell on him, and this time he didn't dodge it.

Rachel walked over and smashed the wands of the two Death Eaters. Before they could catch their breath, a scream came from a nearby room, and the two hurried to the direction of the scream.

When they arrived, the three of Ron just fell out of the door, and Lida jumped out while throwing a spell inside.

Rachel pulled the delirious Ron behind, and together with Lida threw a spell into the door.

When the two of them finally closed the door, Rachel cast a sobering spell on Ron and temporarily treated Ginny's ankle.

"We have to get out of here," said Harry.

Ron wiped the black liquid from his mouth and asked, "Where are Hermione and Neville?"

Rachel and Lida picked up Ginny and said as they walked out, "They are going to rescue the soldiers, let's get out!"

But there were too many doors around, and they were about to walk through one when a door on the opposite side of the hall slammed open, and three Death Eaters ran in.

Bellatrix Lestrange screamed, "Here they are..."

Before she could finish speaking, she was hit by a silent spell from Rachel and fell heavily to the ground.But he was on his feet in no time, and in her frantic squeeing voice she called to the two Death Eaters, "Kill her! Kill her!"

But Rachel and the others had already entered the door and shut them out in time, but there were still many doors in this room full of many brains. Rachel and Lida put Ginny down, and they ran separately to Every doorway, trying to seal the doors before the Death Eaters came in.

But it was still a step too late, Rachel heard Luna scream, and before she could close the door, five Death Eaters broke in.They cast spells at her, threw her high, and dropped her hard to the ground, where Luna lay motionless.

Rachel quickly cast spells at them as she ran.A green light rubbed against her ear and hit the glass next to her. Green liquid flowed out of the glass, and the brain contained in the liquid slid out.

"Wadi Vasi!" Rachel reflexively used a catapult spell, knocking away the brain that was about to fall beside her, and that brain flew to the Death Eater opposite it, quickly entangled him.

Rachel was overjoyed, she kept throwing the brains in the glass in the direction of the Death Eaters.Harry and the others followed suit, throwing brains at the enemy. In an instant, many brains were seen flying around in the whole room, and some Death Eaters had no time to dodge, and were quickly entangled by the brains.

But more Death Eaters flew towards their own brains and knocked them away in time, and quickly launched a counterattack against them.

Suddenly, Harry held the Prophecy Ball high above his head and ran across the room, trying to lure the Death Eaters away from his companions.

It worked, and most of the Death Eaters ran away with him, with a few remaining to deal with the others.

"Harry!" Ron called his name, running in the direction he ran.

Rachel and Lida cooperated tacitly and used silent spells to eliminate the three Death Eaters who stayed here.Lida destroyed the wands of the Death Eaters who had been subdued by them, tied them up with quick confinement, and then ran towards the direction Harry and the others left.

Rachel took out her medical kit, quickly healed Ginny's ankle, and then went to see Luna's condition.

"How is she?" Ginny asked.

Rachel shook her head, pursed her lips and said, "When I fell to the ground, several bones were broken, don't expect her to get up for the time being."

Ginny was a little anxious, and kept looking in the direction where Harry and Ron were leaving. Rachel said, "Go and help Harry, I will hide Luna first, and I will come to you soon." Ginny nodded , can't wait to run in the direction Harry left.

Rachel treated Luna's injuries, left a bottle of potion and a note beside her, hid her in a corner, and cast a neglect spell on that corner.

When she arrived at Harry's location, she was pleasantly surprised to find that members of the Order of the Phoenix had arrived. Rachel couldn't help but heave a sigh of relief, and helped them deal with the Death Eaters together.

Although Tonks and Lida dealt with Bellatrix together, it still seemed a bit difficult. After Rachel joined them, the situation immediately turned to the side of the Order of the Phoenix.

"There are many obstacles!"

"Passed out!"

"Total petrification!" The three curses hit Bellatrix at the same time, but she couldn't escape and fell to the ground after all.

"You hit her!" A cold voice suddenly sounded in their ears, they looked in the direction of the voice, a tall and thin man with a scary face like a snake appeared in the hall, Rachel The three gasped, it was Voldemort.

Pointing his wand in their direction, Voldemort didn't say a word, "Avada Kedavra!"

Rachel, clenching her wand, tried to fight back, but fear held her back.A statue came to life and blocked the killing curse for them.

"Why..." Voldemort exclaimed in surprise: "Dumbledore!" Everyone looked towards the door, and Dumbledore was standing in front of it.

The moment she saw Dumbledore, Rachel breathed a sigh of relief, and she and Lida quickly withdrew from the scene of their battle.

After a tense night, Rachel felt that she was about to collapse. She staggered back a few steps, and when she was about to fall to the ground, she fell into a warm and familiar embrace.

Rachel looked up in surprise, and whispered, "George!"

George hugged her tightly and asked nervously, "Are you all right? Didn't you get hurt anywhere?"

Rachel shook her head slightly and asked him, "Why are you here?"

George said: "When I received the message from you, I knew something was wrong with you. I wanted to inform the members of the Order of the Phoenix, but when I arrived at Black's house, Sirius and the others had already come to rescue you. Sorry for being late! "

Rachel buried her head in his arms and said in a muffled voice, "It doesn't matter what time it is, as long as you come."
