Luffy blinked as he saw somebody hopping their way up the stairs, huffing and puffing. "What the...?" He went over to the person only to gape at the struggling Neville Longbottom who looked very tearful. "Nev!?" He cried out incredulously.
"L-L-Luffy!" Neville cried as he spotted Luffy before more tears spilled out from his eyes. "H-H-Hey..." He muttered lamely before he yelped as he nearly toppled over, only to have Luffy help him up. "S-Sorry." He whimpered. Luffy frowned as Neville sniffled every so often, pushing away the bubble of laughter he wanted to do before he noticed the boy crying.
"What happened?" He asked, not liking how one of his friends was obviously sad. "Why are you like this?"
"...M-Malfoy." Neville whimpered. "I-I met him outside the library...a-and he said he'd b-been looking f-for someone to practice on."
Luffy scowled. Nobody picked on the people he liked! How could Malfie do this!? Luffy was so sure that Malfie wasn't such a bad, petty little brat! "What the hell! I'll get him for that!" He practically screamed before Neville stopped him. "What!? Why are you stopping me!?" He cried as Neville shook his head frantically.
"I don't want more trouble!" He groaned. "It...it doesn't matter."
The straw hat boy scowl only deepened. "But..."
"C-Can you just help me back t-to the tower?" Luffy frowned, looking as though he still wanted to do something but agreed, holding onto the boy before the two started their way towards the Gryffindor Tower as he obviously had no idea what the counter-spell was. "T-Thanks..." The shy Gryffindor muttered softly.
"It's fine. We'd better find somebody to help you." Luffy grunted, still feeling annoyed. He tightened his grip on Neville who only looked down sadly. "Don't worry. I'm, sure somebody can help you." He said.
"...Y-Yeah...T-Thank you, Luffy..."
Kura: ...This was weird...and a bit different from what I imagined...
Berry: I guess.
Kura: T^T Oh well. I suppose it was nice :P I hope the rest of you liked it too :)
Berry: Please do review and until then :)
Kura: BYES! XD
