At learing that Quirrel had gave in to what Snape wanted, Harry and
Fuu returned to the library where the others were studying quietly. As they
told about it, everyone went on the alarm.
"Then there is only one more person to get through Hagrid's pet."
Hermione concluded.
"But what if he had already figured out how to get past Fluffy? Isn't
it that Quirrell is the hardest to evercome because he's a Defense against
the Dark Arts proffessor?" Ron looked at the other possibilities.
"Yes, especially at all the books here to know everything." Umi
added.
"What do we do now?" Ron asked.
"We should have gone to Dumbledore ages ago! Doing this ourselves
will be more serious to us then to them!" Hermine exclaimed.
"But we do not have any proof to show." Harry said."We'll have to
explain to them all of our adventures, telling them all the rules we have
broken."
"Then let's investigate more-"
"No, I had enough of this." Harry remembered what he had said to
himself earlier and studied on.
=Next Day=
Harry, Hermione and Neville recieved a note from Professor McGonagall
next morning at the breakfast table. It was written like this:
Your detention will start at 11 o'clock tonight. Go to Filch in the
Entrance Hall.
PROFESSOR MCGONAGALL
"I forgot that we still have detention." Harry seemed to slap
himself to keep from forgetting his detention. "Ron, Hikaru, Umi and Fuu,
we're going to Mr. Filch eleven o'clock tonight for our detention."
"I understand," Hikaru said. "We'll just fix your notes for you guys"
"Thanks Hikaru, tou're a lifesaver." Hermione said. She did not
really want to miss any of her studies.
That night, Harry, Hermione and Neville prepared themselves for the
possible punishement that they must take. The three left ten minutes earlier.
As for the others, Umi for that matter, was very restless. "Hikaru, I feel
something might happen to them. Whay don't we go follow them and see if their
all right all through the way."
"I don't know Umi, I think detention here isn't as dangerous as the
ones in japan are they?" Hikaru thought.
"We will not know until we find out." Fuu said. "We have not seen
anybody else have detention."
"Oh, alright, we shall go see how they are." Hikaru tightened her
glove, so did the other Knights.
"Good luck you guys," Ron waved to them, he had overheard what they
were discussing.
"O.K." Hikaru slowly closed the portrait hole "Let's go!!" All broke
into a run eventually reaching the Entrance Hall. "Lantis, please lead us
to Harry Potter." she brought out her necklace that reflected the light of
the moon in the sky. It led them all to the entrance of the Dark Woods, where
Hagrid, Filch, Harry, Hermione, Nevile and....Malfoy was there.
"What are you doing here at this hour?" Filch eyed them. "You're
supposed to be inside. I bet you want some detention too. Why don't you join
in the 'fun'!!?" He seemed pleased with himself punishing other students.
"Yes, we'd like to accompany Harry and the others." Umi said.
"Well then, settled are yer?" Hagrid said to the group. "If anyone
doesn't mind we'll be goin' now." He fixed an arrow on the crossbow he held
on.
"Suit yourself. I'll be waiting for you at dawn." Filch turned off
his lamp and walked away.
Then Malfoy began to complain. "I'm not going in there." that gave
Harry a smile.
"Yer should if you still want to stay in Hogwarts. All of yer did
some wrong and someday yeh've got ter pay for it and this is the day."
"But these are seveant stuff, and we're students. Students should be
punished by copying lines or something, if my father knew what we'll be
doing, he'll-"
"tell yer that's how it really is in Hogwarts" Hagrid gave a growl
"What's ther good of copyin lines, tell me! I think it will be much better
if you'll do sumthin useful. If yer father eally wanted you to get expelled
better start packing now. Go on!"
Draco could'nt do anything." Good. Listen to me y'all." Hagrid led
them all to the entrance."What we're all going to do will be dangerous."
He pointed at something shiny in the passage."That is unicorn blood, a
unicorn is badly hurt by somethin'. And it was the second time this week,
I found it dead last week. We're gonna find the poor creature, possibly put
It out of its misery."
Fuu gasped."You would'nt!"
"And what if that something gets us first?" Malfoy choked his words.
"There's nuthin that will hurt ya in the forest if you stick with me
an' Fang here." Hagrid gave the boarhound a pat."We're gonna split up and
follow the trail in different directions."
"Then I want Fang with me." Draco looked at its enormous teeth.
"Suit yerself. But I warned you, he's a coward." Hagrid said.
"I'll join Neville." Umi said.
"And we'll join with Harry." Hikaru said.
"Very well then, when yeh've found the unicorn send out green sparks
and when in trouble send out red one. Bring out yer wands and practice. Ready
then. Let's go!"
The two groups separated into the woods. Umi, Neville, Malfoy and
Fang on the right pathway while Hagrid, Harry, Hermine, Hikaru and Fuu on the
left pathway. While walking on the way Umi wore her armour as Malfoy and
Neville looked at her."What is this?!?" Draco pointed at her guards as they
trudged on.
"Its my armour. It protects me in every battle." she talked back to
Malfoy as she held Neville who was hiding at her back. "Neville, there's
nothing to be scared of."
"So you're somekind of soldier?" the Slytherin student asked.
"Of course not!" Umi let go of Neville and placed her hands on the
hips."I study fencing! It's my skill!"
"Then prove it to me then." Draco was making Umi provoked.
"I will not! I will use my skill when needed. Period." she stared at
him angrily. "Why don't you two go first and I watch you from behind." She
pushed them together."And hold onto your wands. Now go on."
They walked more as Fang pulled them here and there. Then they heard
a branch snap nearby."What was that?!" Draco came nearer to Umi, Neville
joined to.
"I'll take a look," Umi brought out her wand and looked around.
"There's nothing here." she went back and looked at the two and gazed down.
"Neville, it's only you. You broke the branch." she pointed at the broken
branch.
"Oh, sorry."
"Remember when Prof. Flitwick taught you how to protect yourself?
Why don't you practice it while we're walking. In that way we'll get two
things done."
"Umm... O.K.." Neville said as they contined on."Globus Ara!" he
kept on repeating it, getting a bit braver by the minute.
"Hmph..." Malfoy said. 'He's getting braver. Let's see how brave he
becomes later.' "Stop pulling me Fang." he tugged the boarhound roughly.
"Draco, that's no way of treating animals." Umi advised him."If you
don't treat him like a friend, he won't treat you like a friend either."
"Is that so? Why don't you hold onto him." He gave the leash to Umi.
"Sure."
Neville was in front of them all, still practicing. When Umi was not
looking at them, Malfoy crept behind him and scared him by saying "BOoOoO,
I'm going to eat you alive!!!" he said in his most malicious voice.
"AaAaAaAaAhHhHhHh!!!!!" Neville jumped and sent red sparks flying
in his wand.
"Great. Just Great. You can't finish even one day without doing
something evil. O.K.," Umi gave a sigh, she grabbed Malfoy's robe tightly.
"We won't leave until Hagrid comes. CLEAR!!! Fang, stay." She ordered all of
them.
"What's happening ere'!" Hagrid ran to them huffing and puffing.
Umi gave a big sweatdrop."Malfoy frightened Neville."
"S'that so? I'll fix the problem. Follow me." He led them back to the
other group. "Neville, Hermione will stay with me while idiot here stay with
Harry. It'll be much harder for him to frighten Harry. As for you three, join
any of the 2 groups."
"I'll still remain with Neville." Umi insisted.
"Us too." Hikaru and Fuu said together.
The group separated once more. Harry's troop walked deeper and deeper
into the center of the woods. The unicorn blood tacks were getting thicker,
as it led them to a small clearing. It was a sight no one was supposed to
see. The beautiful pearly white body of the unicorn lay there, it made Harry
sad, to see something so beautiful killed. They took another step forward
when something made them stop. Hikaru and Fuu brought out their wands in
preparation, for it followed their will. The bush nearby quietly shook, and
out came a hooded figure in black. It slowly crawled to the dead unicorn,
lowered its head and drank its blood!
"AAAAAAAAAaaaaaaaaHHHHHHHhhhhh!!!" Malfoy let out a loud scream and
ran off, so did Fang. The figure stopped drinking, raised its head and looked
at Harry. Harry Potter alone, with no teachers to protect him. The unicorn's
blood was sliding off its mouth. It stood up and went towards Harry.
"Oh no you won't. You have to get past us first." Hikaru brought out
her sword from her gloves. So did Fuu.
"AaAaHhH!" Harry moaned as he stepped back.
Fuu stood there on guard while Hikaru tried to help Harry."Harry,
Harry, talk to me!! What's hurting." Hikaru saw him holding his scar
painfully. Then something galloping from the woods. It swiftly intercepted
between Fuu and the creature and charged at the hooded figure.
Fuu looked up. "Another centaur..." she said.
Harry was still rubbing his scar continuously then stopped.The
centaur gently pushed Hikaru and Fuu away.He took Harry's hand and helped him
stand."Are you fine?" it asked.
"Yes, I'm alright now, thank you. What was that thing?"
The centaur did'nt answer. He just stood there looking at Harry's
scar.
"The Potter boy." it murmured. You must return to Hagrid, inclusive
of you two," he looked back at them."This forest is not safe for you at this
appointed time, especially for you. Ride on my back and I'll take you to
Hagrid, you two follow me. My name is Firenze." he said as he helped Harry
up.As he was on his back, Ronan and Bane came galloping towards them.
"Firenze!" Bane called out to him "You let a human ride on your back,
do you have no honor? Have you become an ordinary animal used for transport?"
"Do you not know the one riding on my back? This is the Harry Potter,
the sooner that he leaves this forest, it will be the better."
"What have you explained to him?" Bane was already angry." Have you
not promised, like us, not to interfere with the heavens? Have we not read
what is to come in the movements of the planets?"
Ronan just kicked some dust, he gloomily said "I am very sure he
thought he was acting for the best Bane."
That made Bane angry "Is that for the best! We are not supposed to
interfere with what will be foretold. It is not our job to bring any human
around the forest just like an ordinary donkey.
"Did you not see that unicorn?" Firenze was already angry." Do you
not understand why it was killed? Or the planets did not reveal this to you?
I have fixed myself to be against what is moving around this enchanted woods
for the best Bane, join the humans if needed." Firenze turned and took off.
"Wait for us!!" Hikaru and Fuu ran at breakneck speed, trying to
follow them. Then the centaur slowed down and eventually stopped.
The centaur started talking again."Harry Potter, do you know the use
of the unicorn blood?"
Harry only blinked. "No, we were only able to use its horns and its
hair."
"The reason is that it is a monstrous deed to slay a unicorn,"
Firenze looked at Harry, "Only one has nothing to lose and everything to
gain, would commit such a crime. The unicorn's blood will keep you alive,
even an inch from death, but in a terrible price. Killing a poor, innocent
and defenseless creature just to save yourself, will be cursed with a
half-life from the moment the blood touches your lips."
"Who would like a life like that? Death would have been much better,
isn't it?" Harry thought.
"It is, unless this is what you need to stay alive long enough to
drink from something else. Something that will bring it back to full power.
Which might mean, that it, cannot die. Do you know what is hidden in your
school at this very moment?"
"The Sorcerer's Stone!" Hikaru exclaimed.
"The Elixer of Life!" Harry snapped back to his senses."But who--"
"Can you think of no one who has waited year to regain power once
more, who has clung onto life, waiting for its chance?"
"Do you mean that was VOL-"
"Harry!! Harry!!" It was Hermione running towards them.
"This is now where I must leave you. You are very safe now." Firenze
let Harry slide off into the damp ground as he turned around.
"Farewell!" he galloped back into the forest shadows.
=Gryffindor Common Room-an hour later=
"Ron, Ron, wake up!!!" Harry was shaking him to open his eyes. When
he awoke, he explained everything that happened in the forest. All through
the story Harry mentioned the name 'Voldemort' Ron would shriek all through
until he finished.
"Harry, will you tell us. Who is Voldemort?" Fuu asked."You did not
tell your whole story much to us in the train."
"Aaahhhh!! she said it again!!!!"Ron relly freaked out.
"Well, you already know that a guy named You-Know-Who. He's the one
we've been talking all through the train is Vol-" Harry was stopped by Ron,
who covered his mouth, fed of calling He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named.
"Oh, we get it. So he's the one you've been calling You-Know-Who."
Umi caught on. "Why do you people keep on calling him that?"
"Its just... Because!!" Ron said. "Eveyone's been doing it ever
since! Am I right Hermione?"
Hermione only kept silent, she seemed frightened but she gave an
advice." Everyone, all throughout my studies, they have been saying that
the only person he's afraid of is Dumbledore. As long as the Headmaster is
here You-Know-Who won't touch a hair of you."
That ended the conversation. Everyone went to their beds to sleep,
for it seemed that her advice was right and it was conforting. Not one,
slept with nightmares hanging in their minds. It was, as if time will just
pass by until two mortal enemies of enemies shall meet each other again
bonded by destiny.
