James vs the hunter

It was an idyllic summers day, the sort that made you forget the troubles of the world around you. For a young couple it was a welcome respite from the horrors of the war that they were embroiled in.

James and Lily Potter were sitting at the edge of a forest watching a doe and fawn graze.

Unknown to the animals a man was crawling toward them with a compound bow in hand. He had not noticed Lilly and James sitting in the bushes.

"James!" Lilly gasped. "He isn't…"

James frowned "He is. Hey Lilly! Watch this!" and transformed into his Animagus form.

The hunter was startled when a large buck burst from the bushes.

James bellowed, lowered his head and charged the man.

The hunter scrambled to his feet and tried to run but tripped over his own feet. James was on him in a second. He stomped lightly on the man and as the man turned to crawl away James saw he was wearing a belt. The temptation was far too great.

He lowered his antler and hooked the belt. 'One Merlin grade wedgie coming up!'

He lifted his head and started shaking his head from side to side, flinging the man around.

Eventually releasing the man James stood his ground, lowering his head in warning and pawing the turf. The hapless hunter lay, terrified, and then turned and ran as fast as his legs could take him away from the, in his opinion, possessed deer.

James snorted derisively after the hunter and then calmly trotted back into the forest and transformed back into his human shape.

"I doubt that there will be any hunters around here for a while!"
