As James and Sirius reached Stella, their fears were confirmed. The huge green troll was trying to capture her. Or squish her, they weren't sure exactly.
Stella, who was on the ground, rolled to the left, dodging the troll's fist by a landslide as it pounded the ground, in attempt to squish her.
"Look who made it to the party!" Stella grinned sarcastically as she noticed her friends staring, dumbstruck, at the troll. She crawled under the trolls legs and got to her feet, running to join her friends.
"Are you okay?" James asked, snapping out of his dazed.
"Oh yeah, me and Mr. Troll over here have just been playing tag for a while." She laughed shakily. Stella always joked when she was nervous. It was laugh or cry, so she went with the first option.
"Maybe, we should be playing hide and seek." Sirius hinted as the troll rounded in on them.
"What?" asked James, as they stepped back slowly, now that the troll had them cornered.
"James, the cloak!" Stella whispered into his ear.
"Oh! Right." James pulled the invisibility cloak out of his pocket and threw it over himself and his friends.
They troll looked around, confused, before walking away dumfounded.
The trio rushed back to the castle, without any more obstacles.
"What was that annoying noise I kept hearing when we left the forest?" Sirius asked as they made it back to the common room.
"It sounded like a banshee." Said James.
"Oh! I thought Sirius was singing again." Smirked Stella.
"You take that back you meanie little witch!" Sirius exclaimed, tackling Stella to the ground.
Sirius got her in a headlock and ruffled Stella's hair, then she flipped on top of him and pinned him to the ground.
"James! Help!" Sirius cried as Stella grinned in victory.
"Don't look at me, mate. You're fighting a girl. You're gonna lose." James laughed.
"Some friend you are!"
