Returning to Hogwarts and the Dementor
Another year at Hogwarts, I thought as I looked at the clock on the wall as I cleaned the kitchen for the finally time that summer.
My name is Madison Lupin but everyone calls me Maddie. I have shoulder length blonde hair with brown tips, chocolate brown eyes, and according to my friends I am the skinniest one in the group. My friends are Hannah Ginda, Lydia Breach and Frankie Loper as well as some others but these three are my main friends. At the moment it was time for me to return to my school for another year at Hogwarts school of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Yes I am a witch and I enjoy being one.
Hearing a bang as something heavy hit the floor, I rolled my eyes knowing it was my father. My dad was upstairs, packing his trunk for the year. This year he had gotten the Defense against the Dark arts job and he was making sure he had everything he needed.
Maddie you sure you have everything for Hogwarts?" he called down the stairs of our cottage.
"Yes father," I called back, cutting a green apple into slices. "Hurry up dad we have only twenty minutes to get to the platform."
There was the sound of a clang as his trunk hit the bottom step. My father entered the kitchen and gave a sigh as he rubbed a hand across his face. My father was thirty-five and his brown eyes showed his youth more than his actual appearance. You see he was a werewolf that transformed every full moon. Due to this he believed that Hogwarts was safer for me then me being at home. Every holiday he persuaded me to stay in school or to go to my aunties that hated him. I refused as I didn't want him alone by himself and when there is a full moon I lock him in the basement where he puts silence charms as such around so that I couldn't hear him.
"Maddie stop daydreaming," he laughed as he waved a hand in front of my face. "Come. I am allowed to take the Hogwarts express with you. You can go and sit with your friends if you like."
"I think I'll keep you company dad," I said as he reached for my hand. "Besides I have to check that you are okay and that."
"What would I do without you," he teased as he placed his hand into mine before there was a sucking sensation.
I shot my father an angry glare as I fell to the ground of the platform of nine and three quarters. He gave a small laugh as he grabbed my upper arm and pulled me back to my feet. The bright red steam engine gleamed on the platform as I looked around me, not hiding the big smile that has appeared on my face as I would be returning to my second home for the year.
"Go and get some stuff from the counter over there," he said handing me a pouch with gallons, sickles and knuts. "I'm going to go and find a compartment; see you in a bit Maddie."
My father grabbed my trunk and walked off to the bottom of the train. I sighed before walking towards the counter, dodging some of the students that were appearing from the wall between ten and nine in the muggle station.
"Hey Maddie," Lee Jordan said I walked past him. "How was your summer girl?"
"Fine," I replied shortly as he matched my pace as I walked. "How was yours Lee?"
"Good couldn't spend it with Fred or George though," he replied. "They went to Egypt for the summer. You been daydreaming about a certain someone."
"I have no idea who you are talkin' about," I replied, having my hair hide the slight blush that had formed over my cheeks.
"Ha-ha keep telling yourself that," he laughed as he placed a hand on my shoulder to stop from falling over due to how much he was laughing at me.
I gave a small smile before he was pushed over by two boys with bright red ginger hair. Fred and George Weasly gave a cheeky smile as they looked at us both.
"George do we know these two?" Fred questioned as he looked at us both.
"I'm not sure Fred," George replied, trying to hide the smirk that had gone over his face. "I think there is something familiar about them both."
"Maybe as we are your friends," Lee said as he stood back up.
"Oh right that is it," both twins said in unison as I rolled my eyes and walked off to the counter, sending a look at my watch to see that we had five minutes until we had to go. "Maddie wait for us."
When those three had caught back with me, I had grabbed some chocolate frogs, Boris every flavor beans and some bottles of pumpkin juice.
"That's more than usual," Fred said as he tried to make a grab for a frog.
"Hands off Fred they're not for you," I said, freeing a hand to punch him in the chest. "Now disappear."
He gave a smile before he ran off to go to his mother that was talking to his younger brother and his two friends. I shook my head as he pointed a finger in my direction as I walked past him to the last place I had seen my father go. Walking up the steps, I saw Angeline talking to some of her friends. She shot me a smile as I walked past her to find my father and where he had gone to. Looking in the last compartment I found him checking that the trunks where in place in the top as I opened the door and stepped in.
"Hey dad hungry?" I greeted as he turned towards me.
"Yeah a bit," he replied, rubbing a hand across his face as he took some of the food out of my arms and placed them on the seat beside him.
"Hey that isn't fair," I laughed as he tried to grab the rest. "Dad it isn't fair; give me."
He laughed before a whistle was heard and he sat down by the window, as I went to find a muggle book I was reading.
"I'm gonna take a kip," dad stated. "Wake me if there is anything wrong."
"Night dad," I said as he closed his eyes.
As the train rolled into the motion, the only sound was the rustling of me turning the pages in my book and mine and father's breathing. That was until the compartment door opened and I looked up to meet three teenagers; two boys and one girl.
"Is it alright if we sit in here?" the black haired boy asked.
"Go ahead just don't wake him up," I replied before they walked in. "I'm Maddie Lupin; and you three are?"
"Hermione Ganger," the bushy brown haired girl said as she placed her trunk into the top.
"Ron Weasly," the red haired boy said as he helped the girl.
"Harry Potter," the last boy said.
My eyes widened as I searched for the lightning scar that I could faintly see behind his fringe. He shifted uncomfortably, making me move my graze off him and looked to my father that was still sleeping.
"Who's he?" Ron asked as he took the seat opposite me.
"Remus Lupin," Hermione replied as she took the seat by the window. "It says on his luggage before you ask Ron."
I gave a small smile before returning to my book and ignoring what Harry was whispering to the others. Around lunch, the food trolley arrived. I muttered that I already had something as well as what I had brought before boarding the Hogwarts Express. I shared some of it with the other three, as they talked about their two previous years at Hogwarts.
"You're mates with Fred and George?" Ron questioned as I mentioned his twin brothers. "Figures on why they wanted to leave early today."
"Maybe they just don't like you," Harry said as he gave a laugh.
I nodded, also laughing before a launching sound was heard across the train. I frowned checking the watch on my waist and frowned as we had a ten more miles to get to Hogwarts. Hermione also frowned a she looked at me and my watch as Ron went to stand by the window. I stood up when the lights flicked off and I felt coldness wash over my entire being. Taking out my wand, I pointed it at the window, trying to make sense of it while Harry's owl screeched as someone stumbled into the compartment.
"Ron," a scared female's voice said. "What's going on?"
"I have no idea Gin," Ron replied, somewhere to my left. "Whatever it is has stopped the train?"
The compartment door opened again and someone landed on my feet as they fell over in the dark.
"Ouch, Harry you there?" a male voice asked.
"Here Neville," Harry replied. "Have any ideas on what is going on?"
"The entire train has stopped," Neville replied. "Everyone is in the corridor looking to see what is going on."
"Everyone stay where you are," I said, as I heard something approach the door. "Stay still and don't move."
In the dark my eyes went to the sleeping form of my father, wishing that he would wake up when the door slides open once again and a creature appeared in the doorway. It was drapped in a raggy black clock that hide it from view, it's scaly scabby hands were thin and clawed like and from it came the sound like it was sucking the life out of people. I gave a small sound of shock as I realised that it was a dementor; a guard of Askban; properly looking for my father's old school friend Siruis Black who had escaped the Wizard prison not so long into the second month of the holiday.
"Don't move," I whispered, before I felt someone land against my back.
Turning around,, I saw Harry on the floor having a fit, as my eyes went to the sleeping form of my father again for him to wake up and help.
"What's going on?" Hermione asked, fear clear in her voice.
Before I could anser, a hand wrapped around my waist and a wand went out with a sliver mist coming from the tip. The dementor gave a cry before it disappeared and I turned to the person that had just done that. My father's brown eyes meet mine, before he handed me a chocolate frog and turned back to the others.
"He'll be fine," he said. "Make sure that he takes some chocolate. I'm going to go and speak to the driver."
"What the hell was that thing?" Ron asked, as he wolfed down a bar.
"A dementor," I replied. "They guard the wizard prison of Azkban and they were properly searching the train for Siruis Black, Ron."
"Do they honestly think one of us would have him under our cloak's?" Neville asked as he came unfrozen from the petrified look over his face. "Who is that man anyway?"
"My father and the new DADA teacher," I replied, giving him a warm smile. "He knows his stuff about dark creatures and that."
Neville and Ron nodded, as my graze turned to Harry that had been lifted to rest on the seat that me and Hermione had been sitting on area. His eyes opened in confusion as he tried to figure out what had happened.
"Have some chocolate," I said causally and handed him a bar. "It will help with the coldness and also whatever it is that you experienced when the Dementor was in here Harry."
"How you know that stuff?" he questioned, between a bit of the bar.
"My dad and what I study in the summer for my OWLs this year," I replied, hoping that I didn't sound like some clever brat or something.
"That's cool," he replied. "Maddie was someone screaming?"
"No," I answered, immediately feeling confused by his question. "Why you ask?"
"I heard a woman screaming," he replied, looking at his hands embarrassed. "Is that normal?"
My eyes had narrowed before I answered him. "Did the woman say anything else?"
"No she was just screaming," he replied. "What is going on?"
"I don't know," I replied. "You should change in your robes Harry."
Outside of the train, the cold chill of the night, made me draw my cloak closer to me as I followed my father to an empty carriage.
"What did you tell the driver?" I questioned as the carriage lunged into gear.
"What had happened in the compartment as well as sending a letter to Professor McGonagall Maddie," dad explained. "Do you know the patronus spell yet?"
"Not yet dad," I replied. "It's for skilled wizards and witches only."
"Yes but that doesn't mean that younger ones can't practise it," he replied. "If I teach it you, you have to be ready for commitment as well as hard work."
"Dad when has hard work ever stop me before?" I teased as I looked out of the window.
The turrets and towers of the castle draw near. I could make out light from Hagrid's cabin and the shinning fires from many of the castle windows and the lights from the entrance hall before the carriage lunged to a stop. Getting out of the carriage to avoid the rain as quickly as I could, I stopped to see Harry having a stare down with a blonde pale boy.
"Is there a problem here?" my father questioned.
"The boy looked at my father's shabby robes and sneered as he walked away. My eyes had narrowed, until a an arm lead me into the hall and I meet the eyes of George as he looked at me, shaking his head.
"Don't try anything with Malfoy," he warned me, as we made our way to the Gyrffindor table.
"I was only thinking what spell I could use to make him look like a prat," I admitted as we took seats by two of my three best friends .
"And get in trouble on the first day?" he questioned, smirking before he turned to Fred.
Both Lydia and Frankie gave a knowing look with a smile, before we all tried to find Hannah on the Ravenclaw table. When we spotted her, she smiled and pointed a finger to me as she gave a laugh at my face. The hall had filled with chatter as we waited for the first years. Scanning the High Table, I saw my father as he sat by Professor Snape. Catching his eye, dad sent me a smile before he turned to back to his conversation with Professor Sprout. Looking up and down the table, I gave a frown when I couldn't see Harry until Professor Flitwick walked in carrying a three legged stool and the patchy faded Sorting hat.
"Where's McGonagall?" Frankie asked as the line of first years walked in after him.
"Who knows," I replied. "She is the Headmistress, maybe she is busy else where in the school."
Frankie and Lydia nodded, as my eye caught Ron's as he was looking for Harry and Hermione. I frowned before turning to the sorting.
"Awayn Lucas"
The sorting was soon finished as the last first year joined Hufflupuff. I frowned as Harry and Hermione finally arrived and quickly made their way to the Gryffindor table.
"Welcome to another at Hogwarts," Professor Dumbledore said as he stood up. "Welcome to another year to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and wizardry. A few notices before we start the grand feast. As you all know, a mass murderer has escaped the Prison of Azakban and due to safety reasons and those reasons only, Hogwarts is being guarded by the Dementors. Now for those you who don't know, dementors can be dangerous creatures that will not know of your innocence until it is too late. Therefore there will be no one out in the school grounds after half five and know that they won't be fooled by appearance changing spells and invisible cloaks along with other things. Now then lets start our feast."
The five long tables were automatically gurgling with well cooked tasty food as chatter and laughter echoed around the room. Somewhere in the back of my mind couldn't help but think that this year, everything was going to change but for the worst then the best.
