Harry woke up the next moring very early. He got up and took a shower then made a few decisions. First he wasnt going to tell Hermione about the detention. She might think he was trying to put the moves on Ron again. He kinda day dreamed through classes all day about his detention with Malfoy. When the time finally came Dumbledor personally walked him and Malfoy down to Hagrid's cabin. They walke din the door and Hagrid had a grave look on his face.

"Professor ar yeh sure ye want the lit'l ones to com wiv meh?"

"Yes Hagrid this is their punishment and I think that it will be a very good expiereince for them. Boys Hagrid has a little problem, Harry I believe you know about Fluffy. Malfoy Fluffly is a three headed gian dog. Hagrid had him tied up in the Forbidden Forest. You two are going to go in there and help him find it before it finds it way out and sees how a few of our students taste. Got it!"

"BUT PROFFESSOR MY FATHER........."

"Mr. Malfoy your father already knows about this and he agreed that this is a proper punishment now if there are no further disagreements I will be on my way and I will see you two tomorrow in class promptly!"

Harry looked at Hagrid for some comfort but there was none in his eyes. He was dissapointed in Harry and Harry hated that feeling it is almost as bad as when Dumbledor gives him that look. Looks from both of them in the same night was almost more than he could bear.

"Al right you two are gonna take Fang here and I em gonna go by meself. Remember if yeh need any help send up red spark and if yeh find me poor Fluffy then play this," Hagrid handed him a self playing lute, " and send up green sparks and wait fer me. By the way be careful and you teo dont git to fighting and not payin attention yeh hear."

"Ok Hagrid I got it."

The three of them left the cottage and set out into the forest. Harry and Malfoy stayed on the trail and kept their eyes open for any signs of Fluffy or anything else. They walked for a few hours in silence when Harry finally said,

"Do you want to stop and rest a minute, I think we are pretty deep in the forest."

Malfoy just nodded. Harry was starting to wonder if he lost his mind. Dumbledor really didnt give him time to let the three headed dog think sink in. All of a sudden there was a rumble in the bushes. Harry and Malfoy both hit the ground behind a log. All of a sudden a weird creature that they had never seen before jumped out. It looked like a troll in a cloak. The only sound it made was a cackle and ran in the opposite direction of them.

"Well Malfoy it is worth checking out." Harry started running to where the thing came from.

"Wait Harry are you sure we should get off of the trail I mean we could get lost."

"Come on Malfoy all we gotta do is send up sparks and Hagrid will find us anywhere in the forest."

Harry and Malfoy walked a few minutes when they spotted what the thing (they think it was a hag)was running from. Fluffy was sitting under a tree eating the reamains of what looked like a horse. As soon as he saw them he forgot about his dinner and started to growel.

" I am guessing that is Fluffy"

"Yeah Malfoy good job. Just play the lute."

Malfoy pulled out the lute but Fluffy charged and he dropped it on the ground and it rolled to far for them to get. Harry shouted "RUN" and they both darted. They ran for so long after a while Harry couldnt feel his legs anymore. All of a sudden Malfoy ran into something and collapsed on the ground. They had ran into a cabin. At first Harry thought that they had ran out of the forest and were back at Hagrid's house. But they were still deep in the forest.

Harry and Malfoy ran inside. For now they were safe. Harry looked around and saw that the house looked perfectly normal. A few spell books some cauldrons and ingriedients. They was something brewing on the stove.

"Looks like someon left in a hurry,"Malfoy said.

"Yeah well I bet it was that Hag that lives here so I dotn want to be here for long. Where is your wand. I must have dropped mine somewhere cause I cant find it. Just stick your hand out of the window for a second and send up soem green sparks. Fluffy has fallen asleep outside so Hagrid will be able to get and rescue us."

"OK that would work if I had my wand with me. I left it up in my room. I didnt think that I would need it and and I didnt want to get it dirty. I just got it repainted."

"OHH good job Malfoy now we can just wait for the hag to come back and add to her stew for dinner."

"Sorry but I am not the loser that dropped my wand in the woods. All we haveto do is bar the door and she wont be able to get in. Then in the morning we can find our way out. It is easier to get around in the light."

"Ok so what are we supposed to do now Malfoy since you are the genius."

"I sont know, I just want to go to sleep."

"Well I am going to take a shower then we can figure out how to do the sleeping arrangements."

"Ohhh no I am taking a shower first."

"NO your not, not unless your getting in there with me."

"Your sick Potter, go take your shower."

While Harry was in the shower Malfoy noticed that Harry had a huge rip in his robe. He is really built Malfoy thought. Then he banished the thought from his head there was no need to go crazy now. Just because Crabbe and Goyle would hook up with him doesnt mean that Harry would. Even thought he was damn sexy.
