DISCLAIMER : I didn't not come up with any of these characters. They are purely J.K. Rowlings genius work, and I'm putting my own twist to them! :)
-The Last One Standing- Chapter Four : Bitten and Read
A few hours later, he and Ron were in Care of Magical Creatures, looking into the face of a Mackled Malaclaw. Their teacher, Hermione, Ron and Harry's good friend Hagrid, was struggling to keep it away from the Slytherins. Malfoy was wimpering and hiding behind Goyle, who was also wimpering, and hiding behind Crabbe. Harry smirked. 'They're not as tough as they think they are.' He thought. Hagrid was just telling them how if you ate one of these oversized lobsters, you'd end up being sick for up to a week with a high fever and a greenish rash. Harry wasn't paying attention, he was busy thinking about yesterdays Quidditch Practice and the tactics Angelina had taught them. In, out, over, swerve, touch down. Harry smiled. Ron wispered into Harry's ear, "Maybe if I get bitten by one of those, I won't have to serve detention this week. I'd still be missing the game, but at least I wouldn't be writing lines." Harry sighed. They would be missing one player. Ron. He wasn't that good, but now they'd have to play with less players then usual. Angelina had told them something about Harry catching the snitch.. what was it?
Suddenly, Harry heard a scream, and looked up to see Malfoy and Co. struggling with the Mackled Malaclaw that had pounced on them. Crabbe and Goyle were trying to punch it, but not suceeding, and Draco was screaming in agony. "IT BIT ME!!! IT BIT ME! WAIT UNTIL MY FATHER HEARS ABOUT THIS!" Many girls from Gryffindor and Slytherin were screaming and running towards the castle. Harry wasn't sure if it was to try to get away or to go get help. He pulled out his wand and screamed "Finite Incantatem!" The Malaclaw stopped moving, and many eyes turned to look at Harry. Harry put his wand away and Draco looked at him susipciously. Ron looked purely panicked. Hagrid pulled "Gnaw" off of Malfoy. And Harry turned to see Madame Pomfrey running out to them, when someone yelled "Madame Pomfrey!" She shushed everyone and sent them back to the castle, staying with Draco where he was crying about his leg. "Harry Potter did it!" Draco said inbetween sobs. "He probably teamed up with the beast!" Madame Pomfrey shushed him and continued to help the bite on Dracos leg.
Back in the castle, Ron was looking at Harry oddly. "What?" Harry finally said. They were in the common room, and no one was looking at Harry. "Why did you do that?" Ron said. "Do what?" Harry replied, looking at Ron. "Help Malfoy. What has he ever done for you?" Harry shrugged. "I dunno. He was faking anyway, I just tried to stop the commotion." Ron didn't look convinced but said, "Okay, Harry. I'm gonna go do... homework. I'll see you around." "Later." Harry replied and slumped in a chair. He could still hear wispers of his name.
Harry reached into his pocket for some Bertie Botts Every Flavour Beans, but instead of Beans, a note fell out. Harry looked at it quizzically, and picked it up. He opened it tentavly and read.
Harry,
Use this in good health.
There was no signature. Harry sighed and thought, 'Use what? Theres nothing here.' All of the sudden, Harry's owl. Hedwig, flew in with a parcel and let go of it on Harry's lap. It was heavy and square, like a book. "Thanks Hedwig." He said, and stroked Hedwig who cooed affectionatley. Harry opened the package to see a book titled 'Home Life and Habits of British Muggles'. Harry gawked at it. Why would he need this? He already lived with Muggles for 3 months, that despised him. He didn't want to know anything else about Muggles. He sighed and went up into his Dorm, to put the book away.
