The students got up in panick and rushed for the exit of the great hall. About all the commotion, Harry, Tracey and Daphne still sat down thinking it was be safest to be near the teachers if a event like this. "Silence!" Dumbledore bellowed, "everyone please not panick, prefects take the students to their commons rooms, teachers follow me to the dungeon."
Everyone followed suit as Harry went outside the great hall, he heard Neville Longbottom mention that Hermoine Granger was in the bathroom near the dungeons crying because Ronald Weasley said she had no friends. Harry thought back to the train and remembered the girl with bushy hair who was somewhat of a know it all. He made up his mind and turned to Daphne and Tracey, "Ill join you too in the common room later, I have to check something" said Harry.
"Why we were ordered to go the common rooms by dumbledore, thats breaking the rules Harry, we could lose house points" argued Daphne looking at him suspiciously.
"While Daphne right im kind of curious of where you are going Harry, not off to snog a girl that isnt us in the commotion are you?" asked Tracey with a grin
"No" Harry said with a slight blush, "that girl on the train is apparently in the dungeons bathroom, i have to see if she is ok" Harry let out.
"Harry im sure the teachers can take care of it, we are just first years and this is a mountain troll, way beyond anything we can handle" Daphne lectured.
"That may be true for us Daphne but are you forgetting Harry took on two full grown wizards not long ago, I think he can handle himself" Tracey appraised.
"Alright, but we are coming with you" Daphne conceded
"We are, oh delightful, always wanted to see a mountain troll" tracey faked a smile.
"Come on then" Harry and the two girls rushed following their classmates to the dungeon but sneaking off when they got close to the bathroom
When they came close the saw the troll enter the bathroom and a girl screaming
Harry rushed in first
"Are you sure he is not a gryfindor" Daphne looked disaprovingly but went after him and Tracey followed
When Harry entered the bathroom, he saw the troll had destroyed the stalls and Hermione was under the rubble, acting quickly he grabed a piece of rubble and threw it at the troll to get his attention away from Hermoine.
"Smooth Harry, we should try to subdue it until the teachers arrive not get it more angry" Daphne said behind him, she hated trolls
"Wow that thing is big" Tracey announced after them
You two distract it while I get Hermoine out of the rubble
"How are we supposed to distract it?" Tracey asked
Daphne yelled "Augmenti" and a jet of water splashed the troll in the eyes momentarily disctracting it as Harry quickly moved and grabbed Hermoine from the rubble but as he got back the troll charged Daphne and time slowed.
The voice appeared in Harry head and he knew he needed to listen if he wanted a chance to save Daphne
"Yell Stupefy with your wand in a blasting motion" the voice said
"Stupefy" Harry yelled and it stunned the troll as it fell over almost crushing them
In the commotion Professor Mcgonall and Snape arrived
"Oh dear, Mcgonall said looking around at the rubble and stunned troll, You four explain yourself"
"Well we.." Daphne began
"I came looking for the troll, I thought i could take it" Hermoine said
Harry Daphne and Tracey looked at each other a bit surprised but didnt say anything
"That was incredibly foolish of you Ms Granger, I excepted better, you could have died" McGonagal lectured
"Ten points from Gryfindoor for your foolish actions" said Mcgonal
"And you three, ten points each for slytherin for sheer dumb luck" Mcgonal said as she left
Snape leered at them a bit but didnt say anything as they exited while he took care of the troll.
The next day at breakfast, Harry Daphne and Tracey were eating together. "Did you all notice snape was limping yesterday" Harry said
"Yes, and quite obviously trying to cover it up as well" Daphne said while reading the morning paper
"I only noticed the troll boogies everywhere, yuck, I had to take a long shower after that thing sneezed" Tracey said
"A vault in gringotts has been broken into Daphne said as she looked up to them.
