Chapter Six The Dream
Suddenly, Jarrik and Hagrid were back at the Leaky Cauldron.
"How'd we get back here so fast?"Jarrik asked Hagrid, confused.
"I apparated here. You have to wait until you're 17 years old to try for
it."Hagrid informed Jarrik.
"Darn it! How does it work?"he asked yet another question.
"Well, you think of a place that you want to apparate to and well I dunno
if I can explain this very well."Hagrid ended embarrassed.
"That's all right. I can just wait until the day I try it out!"he said
brightly, trying to cheer up Hagrid. It seemed to work.
"The bar will be closing in ten minutes time. Finish what you're drinking,
eating, etc. and go home or get a room here at the Leaky Cauldron's
Hotel!"the bartender, Tom said. People were starting to shuffle around,
collecting their possessions. Some walked up to Tom to reserve rooms. And
others finished their drinks and apparated.
"Let's get a little snack for ourselves for later, shall we?"Jarrik
suggested hopefully. Hagrid looked like he was making a life-changing
decision. He was like that for a minute of two.
"Well...I suppose that it wouldn't be too bad of a thing to do. What do yeh
got Tom, as in snacks?"Hagrid said.
"I got Chocolate Frogs, Bertie Bott's Every Flavor Beans, Ice Mice, Acid
Pops, Cockroach Clusters, Fizzing Whizzbees, Pepper Imps, Sugar Quills,
Everlasting Bubbles Bubble Gum. You get the point?"Tom asked kind of
winded.
"Yeah. Two of every candy, except the acid pops."Hagrid said.
"Hagrid, I didn't know you liked candy so much."Tom told Hagrid surprised.
"I usually don't but I'm tryin' more candy that I have in a while cause o'
the lad here."he said hinting at Jarrik.
"Ah. That will be two galleons and ten sickles. The bar is closing in 1
minute time. Get a room at the Leaky Cauldron's Hotel or please go
home!"Tom said to the remaining wizards and witches. Most of them apparated
to a different place. Some of them went and put their names into the
guestbook and stood in a line waiting for Tom. Hagrid handed him the money,
grabbed the candy and started towards the staircase to the rooms.
"Come on Jarrik, time to go upstairs."Hagrid said, sorting candy in his
enormous hands. Jarrik and Hagrid had gotten two rooms right next to each
other in case Jarrik needed anything during the night. Or needed his own
privacy.
"'Night Hagrid."Jarrik told Hagrid taking his candy."Thanks for everything
so far."
"Not a problem. See yeh in the morning. By the way, Tom is going to wake
you up. Then he's going to wake me up. Ok?"
"All right. Good night!"Jarrik said suddenly sleepy. He walked into his
room and put his candy on the night stand. His stuff was already in his
room. He got his pajamas on and put the clothes that he'd been wearing on
the end of the bed. He collapsed on it, got under the covers and fell
asleep as his head hit the pillow.
He was riding a giant wand. Weird, he thought. Then he realized he was on
the broom he used to sweep the kitchen with. A broomstick, he asked
himself. He leaned down. The broom went towards the ground. In a few
seconds, he had landed.
He heard a high-pitched scream. That was a girl's voice, Jarrik thought
frantically. He started flying low to the ground trying to find the one who
had screamed. He came to a clearing that had a man standing in the middle
laughing coldly. He was pointing a wand at the ground. Jarrik sped up, just
above the tall grass. The man lifted his wand.
"Now do you realize the wrath of my master?"he said as cold as his laugh.
There was no reply. "Do I need to demonstrate again?"he demanded.
"N-no. P-please. I realize it."a girl sobbed uncontrollably. There was a
rustle and the girl got up. It was Rebecka! Jarrik flew up to her, but went
right through her. He saw Harry.
"What's going on?"Harry said."I ran up to her and went through her."he said
frantically.
"I flew through her."Jarrik said anxiously
"Weird we're in the same place though."Harry said."Is this a dream?"he
asked.
"Now do you see why you must carry out my master's plan? You will or you
will replace the boy."the man with the cold voice said.
"I guess it is."Jarrik said.
"Yes sir."Rebecka said with her head bowed. A tear fell to the ground. "Why
though? It wasn't Harry's fault! Harry didn't mean to!"she said suddenly.
"Silence! Master, do I need to demonstrate again? She still doesn't feel
the wrath of your greatness."the man said. All of a sudden, Jarrik realized
the man was Quirrill.
"Harry that's Quirrill!"Jarrik gasped.
"I think twice more should be enough. Plus, no food for two days."said an
icy voice that made the hair on the back of Jarrik's neck stand on end.
"Yes my lord."Quirrill said. He pointed his wand at Rebecka. She screamed
again. Quirrill yelled,"CRUCIO!." She was on the ground twitching again,
squeaking and crying uncontrollably. Quirrill laughed again. Harry fell to
the ground, clutching his scar.
"REBECKA!!!"Jarrik screamed. He didn't mean to yell. The picture got
completely blurry. Rebecka screamed again.
