Harry giggled as the tongue swiped across his head. Little locs falling in front of his eyes and becoming damp as the tongue swiped once again.
It wasn't often that Unicorns were seen on the Hogwarts grounds. And even less likely was it for them to approach the people who resided in the castle.
The magical creature has creeped behind the toddler as he played cabbage vines beside Hagrid's cottage. The giant had been teaching about Horklumps, which were rather harmless. So, Harry was able to play outside in the garden without anything posing a threat to him.
Hagrid was just a few feet away, about 15 feet or so, tending to the chickens in the coop. He could see Harry, but really unicorns didn't pose much of a threat so kept doing what he was doing.
Which was fine in Harry's opinion.
He carried on showing the unicorn the leaves he picked from the cabbage plant and the little ladybug that had crawled on his hand.
The unicorn took to pushing smaller cabbage heads towards the child with its horn. Harry would huff and push it back at the creature. He gently pushed/patted the unicorns muzzle with his hand.
But sure enough, just like any child, Harry eventually grew bored of his activities. He gave the unicorn a quick brush on the horn and the stood on wobbly legs to find his next adventure.
As Hagrid saw him walking towards the wild mandrake patch on the edge of the Forbidden Forest, Hagrid quickly abandoned the chickens to stop the child.
After all mischief is only a shuffled step away for little ones.
A/N:
Harry is just out living his little life. Also apparently unicorns are super dangerous. (Class XXXX) But Harry wasn't attacking it so I think it was okay.
