A few more days passed and they were all getting comfortable with each other, Jack and Harry had become good friends. One dull gray Tuesday afternoon Jack was outside, probably taking care of the rat problem when a huge silvery-white dog came bounding in through the back doors, two red streaks were running down his cheeks and a few inches across his paws. A blue half moon was on his forehead. He bounded up on Harry, who was going to put his dished in the sink when the dog jumped on him, knocking him over, Sirius and Remus instinctively pulled out their wands.
'Help, he's trying to kill me'
Harry laughed loudly as the dog licked his face, wagging his tail happily. The dog sat up and with a flash of brilliant light, he was Jack.
'I didn't know you were an animagus'
'I'm not, I'm a half demon, and that's my animal form'
'You're a half demon?'
'Yup, that's why my ears are weird'
His ears twitched.
'Wow, I never knew that'
Jack shrugged. Harry stood up and giggled. Just then the sun began to shine between the clouds. Jack changed back into his dog form and Harry chased him out the back door. The gate was open for them to go into the front yard.
'Don't go too far'
Remus called after them. He walked back into the kitchen and started to wash the dishes, while Sirius made another reading sheet for Harry. Jack was going into his Sixth year at Hogwarts on September the 1st. It was now August 5th. They ran around on the grass, in the front and back yard, before they collapsed in the front yard, both gasping for air. Harry curled up into Jack's fur and Jack put his paw around Harry's shoulder. They lay there for a while before a large shadow blocked out the sun. Jack opened his pure red eyes and started to growl, baring his teeth viciously. The man casting the shadow was none other than Uncle Vernon, holding a large rifle or shotgun. Jack stepped over Harry and stood in front of him, guarding him.
'How cute, a little guard mutt'
Vernon said in mock adoration. With a flash of sparkling light, there crouched Jack, his eyes back to normal, but his fangs were still bared. Harry's eyes were wide with horror and shock, while he shivered from head to foot.
'Harry, go inside and get Remus and Sirius, and then no matter what you do just stay there'
Jack instructed, just before uncle Vernon fired at Jack, who was still crouched on the ground, his red kimono sleeves crept down his wrists. Without a second order Harry bolted into the house. Before Vernon could fire again, Jack leap into the air and backflipped a few times. He landed on the ground and flexed his fingers, cracking his knuckles and took a karate-fighting stance. Just then the front door flew open and Remus and Sirius ran out, wands forwards. Before they could do anything Vernon raised the gun and pulled the trigger, sending a bullet right into Jack's stomach. He was lifted off the ground by the force of the blow, and winded. It seemed to take an age for him to fall. His hands slowly relaxed as he slowly fell into a beautiful, graceful and yet tragic arc. Flecks of blood flew out of his stomach and onto the grass. He landed on the lawn and spread out, his hair flying everywhere, and when it touched his wound it became crimson with his blood. Sirius watched the whole thing; before he raised his hand high above his had and shouted.
'Brackulus'
A flash of purple light shot out of his wand and hit Vernon in the arm, snapping it instantly. He shrieked in pain and dropped the gun. Sirius then pointed his wand at Vernon's heart and said.
'I'll kill you'
'No Sirius, get Jack to St. Mungo's now, I'll take it from here'
Sirius reluctantly lowered his wand and then ran over to Jack, who lay motionless on the ground. He placed a hand on Jack's limp shoulder before with a pop, they were both gone. With a pop they landed in a waiting room. Sirius ran up to the counter and started to talk to the Welcomewitch.
'My son was hit with a-oh what did Remus call them'
'What?'
'A muggle wand'
The welcome witch rolled her eyes and pulled out a stack of parchments strung on a silver binder ring. She started flipping through them before she stopped on one of them.
'Aha, here it is, I'm sorry but we don't deal with those kinds of wounds'
'Well, this is the only hospital we can go to…we can't apparate right in the middle of a muggle hospital.'
'Whatever, I'll got and get a healer'
She impertinently bustled out of the room and disappeared behind a door. Sirius ran over to Jack, who wasn't breathing. Soon a Healer came into the room and magiced him onto a stretcher. Then ran out of the waiting room, Sirius following him. The healer pulled Jack into a room and stopped Sirius.
'I'm sorry but you have to wait out there'
