HP & Knight of The Light
Chapter XIII: " "
Harry was sweating like crazy as if he was in the presence of the fire god, Vulcan, in all his glory. Harry however didn't have much time to think about his current stench situation for his nose's perfect condition was on the line if he kept on this thought. Harry rolled to the right dodging the punch sent by his current fighting partner and friend, Draco Malfoy. As soon as he gained balance he sent a sweep kick towards Draco in attempt to make him lose his footing. However Draco jumped the leg and counter with an elbow knee drop towards my stretched out thigh.
He pulled back his thigh from it's sweeping maneuver just in time, for Draco's knee landed on the ground where his thigh would have been if he had left it out any longer. Harry rolled backwards to avoid Draco's quick successions to his failed maneuver by sending kicks at him. He dodged many of them but could not dodge them all. Luckily he was able to angle his body so that the hit's weren't leaving serious damage.
Harry finally got a good footing to get back on his feet. When he got back on his feet, Harry had the advantage for he was the better hand-to-hand fighter. The fight didn't last long for he took down Draco by shear luck for he lost his footing and was caught on the ground. They both gave the other congrats and pats on the back to show no hard feelings or anything like that. They went inside the marvelous castle, the place where their school was located in. The place which was now their home, their true home. As they stepped inside the large doors they serperated, Harry went upwards and Draco went downwards. Harry dragged his tired body up the long flights of stairs to his common room.
He entered the common room and went into his room. He took a shower and dressed in his boxers. He had two hours or so until breakfast started and he intended to savor every minute of that time with blissful sleep. He walked over to his bed and laid down on it. He was down for the count even before his head hit the pillow.
When he opened his, his first thought was finding out what time it was. Looking to the left, where his clock was located, he found the time to be 7 on the dot. He changed in a bit of a hurry and jogged down to the Great Hall. He entered the halls where there were loud chattering and eating taking place. He took a seat at his house table and began eating a bit of whatever was around. Soon his stomach was a little less then full, for he found to bloat himself was not a good thing, and did it only on special occasions like feast or the like. Soon he was done and found himself walking to class.
Potion was the usual, annoying yet productive. He only slightly managed not the throw his cauldron's content towards the teacher. When the bell rung, he exited the class with haste. Ancient Runes was a good leason. He got a test score back and found that he got a 95. He whooped for joy on getting his first A in this lesson! Sure he found the class to be easy to understand and the like, but he had loads of catching up to do and only managed to get a B- at the end no matter how much he tried. His whoop for joy brought the attention of many in the classroom but mainly the girl sitting next to him. Padma Patil, his tutor in the class, looked over to see his grade and congradulated him. She was happy that her student got a good grade showing that she was teaching well. She felt a bit sad knowing that her tutoring student would no longer need her. She found that Harry was a good person to talk to, and even though they only talked briefly once a week, with the lesson's not counting for they had to listen to the teacher mostly, she enjoyed it. It was good to talk to non-Ravenclaws for even though they were friendly and all their conversation drifted too much towards study, and not enough fun stuff like Quidditch and the record for how-many-candy-was-eaten-in-a-day kind of topic. They were useless yet enjoyable things to talk about.
Harry looked over to his tutor and friend and asked what was wrong. She denied knowing what he was talking about and avoiding the question till he got frustrated. He was asking again and again what the matter was and finally just used his puppy face to try to get the answer from her. Finally she confided to him her worries and he reassured her that she didn't have to worry about it and that they would still talk often. He exited the classroom with Padma and talked to her as long as he can until they went different paths.
Charms and Transfiguration went well with Harry gaining 5 points and the Gryffindor in total got 10 more. The majority of the points were from Mcgonnagol and Harry suspected that she was trying to gain most of the points that Harry made Ron lose for she rarely gave points out even though he did well in her class. The incident with the first years went well. The next day all the first year came to appoligise for their act of brutality. Harry forgave them and said that he hoped that they didn't show such act in the future on such baseless ground like school rivalry. He told them that he would understand if they did it was they felt wronged by the other and even though punishment would be in order it would be very light for harassment was in order by the other. After the first years told Harry their problems and accomplishments from creating a new type of acid in potions(a bad thing for they were not trying to do that) and kissing a girl on the cheek.
At lunch Dumbledore announced that with a week to Christmas that a Hogsmeade trip would be tomorrow. In Herbolody they were studying the Devil's Snare something, the teacher said, that claimed many wizard and witches life and was very dangerous. Harry got through that lesson with a breeze considering his past history. In DADA he sat with Padma and talked to her a little. However why she got into Ravenclaw was evident was she had a thirst for learning and didn't talk to him much.
Dueling class was a joke. Nobody even thought about asking him to duel after seeing him wipe Weasley off the floor like a joke. Neither did they ask Draco, although not many did to start with, for they knew him to be strong because he dueled with me and matched me power to power. Also they were so scared of both of them now that they created a huge space for Harry and Draco whenever they were in the dueling class. Seemed that they didn't want to be asked for a duel by the two or didn't want to insult the two in anyway so they tried to show "respect" something Draco labeled as fear.
Only Padma and few others like Neville, who got closer to Harry and was a better friend to each other, got near them. However Neville seemed to avoid him more whenever he was with Draco. In the past two to three week only one was "brave?" enough to challenge the two. One was a seventh year Slytherin who challenged Draco and the other a 7th year Gryffindor who challenged Harry. They of course accepted and to no one's surprise they beat the 7th years with no problem, of course they did it with swords and fist for their knowledge of "light" magic was not close enough to match the 7th years although they were probably at least even with 6th years.
Also Ronald Weasley finally seemed to have learned his lesson for he avoided him for the past week. He was also the laughing stock of the school now for the whole school heard about how he was humiliated in the dueling again. Harry and Alicia became friends again after much convincing to Alicia that he had the rights to have his own secrets. She was still a bit angry, but was content and understood that she had secrets that she didn't want others to know.
Dinner went by well enough and Dumbledore repeated the announcement about the Christmas Ball to remind those that forgot. Many murmers arouse from to the hall signifying that many had indeed forgot about it. After Harry finished eating he exited the hall and went into his room. He stayed up reading the books he rented from the library until he felt tired and went to sleep.
