A/N: Chapter 9 is here, spreading peace and- oh wait, maybe not. Nevermind.
Anyways, here is the arrival of chapter 9, Day 2 at Hogwarts. The hobbits
meet Hagrid! Yay! So sit back, relax, and- read. I guess. Ah yes, do not
own anything. Or do I? Hahahaha!
Chapter 9
The next morning, the hobbits were all eager to get down to breakfast and to their next classes. Now they would finally have a chance of doing magic!
The four of them sat next to Harry, Ron, and Hermione at the Gryffindor table. Pippin literally poured the food on his plate, and Merry was already digging in. The two of them loved all this new food that they didn't have in Middle Earth, and they wanted to take the opportunity to eat as much of it as possible.
"Honestly, I've never seen anyone eat as much as you do, not even Ron!" Hermione told them as they stuffed their faces.
"Yeah, you really- Hey, wait a minute Hermione! I don't eat THAT much!"
"Well anyways, I suggest we get to Charms. Coming?" she asked them as she got up from the table. They all followed suit, Pippin looking glum about leaving the food behind. He quickly looked around and sneaked an apple off the table into his pocket.
They now headed to another classroom, and took their seats as a tiny person, shorter than a hobbit even, stood upon a stack of books.
"Good morning, class!" he said in a squeaky voice. "Today we shall be reviewing the Silencio spell. You shall all receive a frog or a raven to practice on. Mr. Thomas, if you shall hand out the frogs?"
They waited as they each received a frog or raven. Frodo looked curiously at his raven. "What are we supposed to do?"
"You have to perform the spell, of course!" Hermione instructed them matter-of-factly.
"Uh, how do we do that?"
"Like this." Hermione pointed her wand at Sam's frog, said "Silencio!" and his frog suddenly stopped croaking. Sam looked at the frog in amazement.
"Now you try," she told Frodo. He pulled out his own wand, and pointed it at his raven. "Silencio?" he said unsurely. The raven only looked at him and emitted a loud "Caw!" Frodo looked disappointed.
"Don't worry, just practice it!" Hermione reassured him. They heard Ron talking to Harry next to them.
"He's not stupid, he knows she nearly got him. Silencio!" The large raven in front of him let out a derisive caw. "Silencio, SILENCIO!" he cried.
"It's the way you're moving your wand," said Hermione, "You don't want to wave it, it's more of a sharp jab."
"Ravens are harder than frogs," said Ron through clenched teeth.
"Fine, let's swap," said Hermione as she seized Ron's raven and replaced it with her frog. "Sliencio!" The raven continued to open and close its beak, but no sound came out.
"Very good, Ms. Granger, now let's see Mr. Weasley try!" came the squeaky voice of Professor Flitwick.
"Wha-? Oh, Ok. Er, Silencio!" But Ron jabbed at the bullfrog so sharply that his wand poked it in the eye, as it gave a rather loud croak and jumped off the desk. His ears started to turn red as the rest of them laughed.
The next class was Transfiguration. Professor McGonagall, Deputy Headmistress to the school and also Head of Gryffindor House, spent the first 15-20 minutes talking about O.W.L.s. Frodo, now finally knowing what that meant, listened intently as she described it. This O.W.L. stuff sounded hard. Good thing he didn't have to do it!
During that class, they tried as hard as they could to vanish a snail. Merry and Pippin were having the time of their lives with turning their snails different colors, Frodo continually needed Hermione's help, and Sam was just at a complete loss. After the class Ron said hopefully that he thought his snail looked a bit paler, but Harry just looked at him with pity.
After a quick lunch, they headed down to the grounds for their Care of Magical Creatures class. As they walked down from the castle, a small hut came into view, the very hut that Frodo had seen the night he was thrust through the portal, and standing in front of the hut was the huge man he had also seen.
As the hobbits looked up at the man with a look of awe on their faces, they felt like they were back to their own height.
"All righ', Harry? Ron? Hermione?" asked the man with a gruff yet kind voice.
"Hello, Hagrid," replied all three in unison.
"So, who are yer friends we got here?" he asked them, looking down at the four new students with beetle-black eyes. They now noticed that he had many cuts on his face, and he had a black eye as well.
"Hagrid, this if Frodo, Sam, Pippin, and Merry," Harry said, introducing each of them to the giant man named Hagrid.
"Nice ter meet yeh," replied Hagrid, as the rest of the students came down to the hut. Frodo noticed that the Slytherin students, like Malfoy, were among them.
The class spent the whole time looking at creatures called bowtruckles, little creatures that looked like sticks, but with eyes and razor-sharp claws.
After Care of Magical Creatures, they went to a section outside the castle with many greenhouses, and entered one of them to find many strange and erotic plants. This was Herbology, the class where you learned about plants and how to take care of them. Sam easily said that this was his favorite class.
After Herbology, they went up to the castle for dinner. Merry and Pippin rushed yet again to the table, choosing many varieties of food. Fred and George, who quite liked these two new students, sat next to them as the rest joined them. Fred was talking to Merry and Pippin, who listened intently.
"You like food, don't you? Yeah, the food at Hogwarts is great. Want us to tell you where you can get more?"
Pippin put down his fork and leaned in closer. Merry looked at Fred with a look of excitement on his face.
"Well, I can tell you how to get down to the kitchens, if you like. The house elves there will give you ANYTHING you ask for! Just name it, and they'll hand you a roasted ox!" Everybody laughed at this, but Frodo looked interested in what Fred was saying.
"You mean elves work? In kitchens?"
"House elves, actually," George informed him. Frodo looked down at his plate and wondered what house elves looked like. Were they like the Elves he knew? He snapped out of thoughts to hear what Fred was now saying.
"Anyways, you go down to the corridor with paintings of food, right? And then you see one at the end with a bowl of fruit. You just reach out, tickle the pear, and it becomes a doorknob. You open the hidden door, and there's food for you're content!" finished Fred with a flourish of his hand.
Merry and Pippin exchanged looks of excitement and joy. They would've leapt off the table and ran out of the Great Hall, if Frodo and Sam had not restrained them.
"Honestly, why must you encourage them?" Hermione asked Fred and George. "I think that we should protect the house elves rights, not torture them by bringing in these two!"
"Hermione, you aren't going to start that 'spew' thing again are you?" Harry groaned.
"No, but I want the house elves to be happy! That's why I'm making them those hats!"
"Hermione, give it a rest," Fred told her as he thoughtfully chewed on a roll. She gave him a look before continuing her own dinner.
When they got to the Common Room, Harry and Ron started to play wizards chess. Frodo and Sam watched in awe as Harry's knight was smashed by Ron's queen.
"Ha! Take that!" Ron shouted in triumph.
"Why do YOU always have to win, huh?" Harry asked him as he moved his bishop forward.
Merry and Pippin were talking to Fred and George again, and Hermione was studying. Soon, Hermione said she would call it a night, and Harry and Ron followed this example. The next day was Saturday, Harry told them, and they were going to go into Hogsmeade, whatever that was. They said their goodnights and Frodo and the rest went to bed as well.
This is quite fun, Frodo thought as he drifted into sleep. I just wish we could stay longer.
A/N: Hehehe, they meet Hagrid. Woah, what would happen if they were their normal size when they met him? He must've REALLY looked like a giant! Anyways, I know that some of the stuff I put in the story are a bit switched around from the order of the book, BUT DON'T QUESTION IT! I got a little confused at first, so I'm sorry if this is not PERFECT. All the rest of the stuff is correct, though. Look it up, see if it is! Go on! Uh, please send plenty Reviews, and I'll put the next chapter up. Thank you!
