Chapter 9 "To be a Hero"
Hermione is holding your hand tightly as the two of you walk through the
corridors. She looks at you and smiles. You have always loved Hermioine's smile. She is just glowing with happiness. "What are you going to talk with Professor Sinistra about?" You ask, just to make conversation. The silence was nice, but you just want to hear her sweet voice.
"Well, it's about my homework. She said that the orbit that I calculated for one of the asteroids is incorrect, but I can argue that I can prove it, so I want to prove it to her tonight and I want to ask her if it is alright." She said happily as she leaned her head against his shoulder as they walked.
You should have known that it was about something that she wanted to prove. That is just the way she is. Always right.
You arrive at the astronomy tower and Hermione leaves you.
"I will be ten seconds, love. Just stay here. Okay?" She says as she hugs you tightly. You love the feeling of Hermione all around you. Her hair smells like flowers and spring water and you sink into a feeling of totally harmony and content. But then she pulls away and you are left in your desolate world again.
She closes the door behind her and you are left alone in the corridor to wait. Professor Sinistra's office is in a corridor not visited by many, so you decide to stroll and talk to some of the paintings. There is one of a beautiful centaur. She is in a pond with an enchanted willow tree, whose crying branches lightly graze over the surface of an amethyst water surface. Aria, as so you find out her name is, has long white, silk hair, with a tail that flows at least two feet behind her. She has a golden white coat and hooves as if made of ivory and pearl. Pink lilies adorn her hair and tail and green vines trail up her hindquarters. But then there is Dr. Bob, the mad scientist with a cat with frog legs in another picture next to the beautiful Aria. You don't like this man. He seems a little crackers. But there is one painting that catches your eye immediately. There is a large green lake with ducks and geese. There is a rusty old wooden bridge over this lake. A man in a tattered gray coat leans against the railing and stares into the oil sunset. He turns around and looks at you. His face is old and unshaven. He looks as if he hasn't been in a bath for about a good three years. "Ello ther'! I be Morris! Yer Harry Potter, aint cha?" He questions you. "Yes, I am." You respond. "Do you want something of me?"
"Well, no, per say. But I have something ye might want'er look at!" He walked across the bridge and pointed to a door on his left.
"There's treasure in that there door, there be. I'll eat me hat if there aint."
You look at the man. He doesn't have a hat.
"Trust me, boy! You'll not be fergettin it!" He continues. Morris gives you a toothy grin and points at the door.
Trust the old coot and open the door, go to chapter 13
Do not trust Morris, go to chapter 5
