The Demon Hunter and The-Boy-Who-Lived
Ch 4:
Harry and Nicole crept through the dark forest silently. There was no movement as they made their way through the leaves. Finally, Nicole spoke up. "There's never trouble right away. Sometimes I don't even find things here. However, that doesn't mean there is no trouble. The centaurs always make it hard for me. Then I have to watch what I attack. Hagrid gave me a long list of things not to kill." She pushed away leaves and crept into an opening. "This was where I fought a huge Cornett demon. That wasn't fun. I still have the bruises."
Harry looked at her. He watched nothing but her for a month and yet he was very unaware of what was happening. He never saw the bruises or tiredness in her body. Instead of mentioning any of these, he said, "So you've met Hagrid?"
"Yep. We had a run in about killing demons and I had to bring him out with me to show what was really going on. He's still a little sour with me," she explained. Harry was about to say something when a loud crack erupted from behind them. Nicole spun around with lightening quick reflexes to attack. Right when she would of blew the thing into pieces with her wand it came out of the shadows revealing a very tall man none other that Hagrid.
"Can you try not sneaking up behind us like that?" Harry asked quickly.
"Wha' are yo' doin' here, Harry?" Hagrid asked a little angrily.
"Just helping with the hunting," Harry said as if it was very clear. In fact, he didn't see what the big deal was. He was about to say something more when Hagrid turned to Nicole.
"What were you thinking of when you brought him out with you. It isn't safe for him," Hagrid practically bellowed at Nicole.
At this, she got very angry. "Oh, come off it. You don't think he can handle himself. I mean, come on, he's just as powerful as me probably more so. Do you really think I would bring just anyone in here with me?" Nicole asked.
"It is not safe here for him!"
"Oh, and it's safe for me? Think about it. Harry has gotten away from one of most powerful Dark Lords in history so many times!" she screamed back at him
"Can you please stop talking about me like I'm a child that's not here?" Harry demanded. "I can handle myself."
However, he seemed to be totally ignored. "Tell me Hagrid, what about me gets you to hate me so much?" Nicole asked, still angry.
"I don't hate you! You just don't live in the real world. Reality is that you'll die and you can't take all these risks!" Hagrid said a little more softly.
"It's my job, everyone dies sometime, and I only take risks if I can," Nicole explained, testily.
"That doesn't mean you should pull people into it," Hagrid said.
"I don't. If you're in my life then you have to fight sometime. Even if I wasn't here, Harry would be fighting like he did every year since he came to Hogwarts. Why don't you talk to Harry about taking risks?" Nicole said. Then suddenly she added," Because I got to fight that demon behind you."
Then she spectacularly swung herself over Hagrid and sent a flying kick into the demon. It seemed to be oozing gooey, black tar. It was about the sized of Hagrid with a lot more muscle. Right away, it started fighting back and flung Nicole into a tree. She jumped up and sent a flying knife into it. It hit its shoulder and caused it to hesitate. Nicole took this moment to draw out her sword and get into battle stance.
"Come on little demon and let's do a violent dance," Nicole said smiling dangerously.
Then, unexpectedly, the demon began to speak in a deep voice. "On your grave, Hunter," it said and went to tackle Nicole into another tree. Just before he struck Nicole dived out of the way and said, "Not today."
The demon recovered quickly and began to send blows. As Nicole reached to grab her wand, the demon took control. Then suddenly a knife went through its head and the demon dropped. Nicole looked over to find Harry with his want raised as if he finished a spell. Obviously, he used his wand to hurtle the knife through its head.
"Nice shot but couldn't you have done it earlier," she muttered.
"Well, I'm always fashionably late," he joked as he went over to help her up.
"You should be grateful. If he wasn't here then you would be dead, " Hagrid said gravely.
Nicole shook her head. "Well, obviously he was meant to be here; otherwise I wouldn't be alive to be killed by Voldemort. Everything is fate," she told him as if nothing happened.
"You see that's why you're a danger to yourself. You're to confident," Hagrid said.
Nicole sighed then shook her head. She looked up to the sky and screamed up as if to God, "Can't you make anything easy for me!" She stomped off into the forest leaving behind an angry Hagrid and a bedazzled Harry.
"Come on. I'll make you some tea," Hagrid said, turning away to exit the forest. They walked until they reached Hagrid's cabin to meet a very excited Fang. After a dog bath or two, they were seated comfortably at Hagrid's table.
"I see you made friends with our young Hunter," Hagrid stated as he pushed a cup of tea towards Harry.
"You can say that," Harry said smiling slightly.
"Just don't get too close. She's like a disaster waiting to happen," Hagrid said as he took a sip of tea.
This made Harry angry. "You know what? It's too late because I already got close," he said angrily. Then he calmed down a bit. "You don't know her or what she went through."
"And you do?" Hagrid asked a little taken back.
"Yeah, because must of it happened to me. The only reason I was able to get through is because f everything I have left. I have friends," Harry said and looked towards the window. "Nicole lost everything too soon and only now is she getting something back."
"There's been no comfort or love in her life since her family died. When she wasn't with them, she was alone. Her old friends thought she was strange and weird. How would she deal with things without anyone? There was no way so she took risks. The thing is no one knows what she's done. Probably every other day she's saved the world. Tell me how would you deal with that?" Harry asked silently.
"I never really thought of it that way," Hagrid said thoughtfully. Then his facial expression changed and he asked slowly, "What do you mean you already got close?"
"Err..." Harry hesitated. "As in boyfriend, girlfriend," he said quietly. He watched Hagrid's face carefully and watched it change to surprise.
"Well, that was unexpected," Hagrid said chuckling. "It sort of fits though. Both save the world, both have a fascination with dark colors, and both have big mood swings. I would say that fits."
Harry laughed. There was a knock on the door and Hagrid shouted, "Come in." The door opened to reveal nothing. Then suddenly two bodies appeared in the doorway.
"We figured you'd be here," Hermione said as she closed the door and sat next to Ron at the table. "Where's Nicole?"
"Probably taking off her anger on a demon," Hagrid replied. "It's strange I've fought with her more than I've ever fought with anyone."
Hermione raised an eyebrow. "Can it be that she kills things that you seem to think are harmless?" Ron asked and Hermione hit him. "Ow."
"What do you mean?" Hagrid asked, confused.
"Hagrid you do seem to like the creatures people usually see as.uh.dangerous," Hermione said carefully. Hagrid began to look perplexed again when there was another knock on the door.
"Come in!" Hagrid shouted. A dirty Nicole entered the cabin and closed the door behind it.
"Okay, Hagrid. This is how it goes. You're right about the whole risk thing but it's the only way I win and it's the way I've survived for seven years. If you don't mind I'd like to make a truce and sort of forget the last month's happened," Nicole apologized a little awkwardly. It was obvious she wasn't very used to the whole apologizing thing.
"That'd be nice. Now I say you should all go back to the castle. However, I don't mind any more nightly visits from the three of you. Harry you better go under the invisibility cloak with Ron and Hermione," he said.
"How about Nicole?" Ron asked dumbly.
"I'm allowed out, now let's go."
