Chap 4 Goodbye Hogwarts
Sunlight shone through the window waking a sleepy Ron up. Shooting up in bed he looked around him. What had happened? All he remembered was going into the forest to change and then Hermione and Harry. Hermione and Harry! Where were they? Frantically he shot down the stairs to look for his friends hoping they were okay. Ron let out a sigh of relief when he saw them waiting downstairs.
" Hey, Harry, Hermione," he smiled. " I am so glad to see both of you. I thought I…
" Ron," Hermione began then cried.
" What is wrong, Hermione?"
" Since she can't say it I will," Harry agreed. " Ron, you have to leave."
" Leave the room? Why I just got here and …
" No, not the room this school," Harry stated.
Staring at his two friends Ron let out a loud laugh. He walked over to Harry placing a hand on his shoulder while holding his stomach from so much laughing. Harry frowned making Ron step back.
" Hermione, Harry is kidding right?" Ron asked.
Sadly she lowered her head.
" Why? What did I do?" he panicked. " I don't understand.
" Ron, last night you attacked Pro. Snape," she frowned. " You also killed a student the day before."
" But…why?"
" Pro. Dumbledore tried to…
" But Pro. Lupin is just like me and Dumbledore gave him a chance. Why not me?"
" Ron, then we had a medicine to keep Pro. Lupin under control," Harry explained. " We don't have anymore of the medicine, Ron. Don't worry we will find some more and you will be…
" When do I leave?" Ron interrupted Harry.
" You leave at lunch," Harry answered.
" I better go pack," he grumbled.
Once Ron's belongings were in order. He took one long look at the boy's dorms and then headed back downstairs.
" Now, Ron, don't give up on us," Hermione commanded. " You will be back to school in no time."
" Thanks, Hermione," he smiled. " I won't give up."
" Good,"
In the great hall Dumbledore told Ron that he wouldn't have to attend classes and neither would Hermione and Harry just to keep Ron company. After breakfast the three friends headed outsides.
" Oh, Ron, don't be sad,"
" Hermione, how can I not be sad? I am being expelled," Ron yelled.
" Calm down everything will be okay," Hermione assured.
Sadly Ron looked across the field. Squinting he could see the qudditch field. He would miss playing all afternoon then coming back sweaty and tired. Hagrid's hut was in the distance. Hagrid was so nice to him and now he had to leave never see the friendly giant again.
" Hey why don't we go see, Hagrid," Harry suggested.
Ron didn't respond but decided it would be okay. When they arrived at Hagrid's hut they knocked on his door. Slowly it was opened and they were invited in.
" I heard about your situation," Hagrid frowned.
" Yeah," Ron frowned. " It isn't fair."
" Lots a things aren't fair," Hagrid added.
" I don't want to leave Hogwarts," Ron hollered.
Hagrid smiled then frowned. Harry and Hermione cried and that made Ron cry. For the past forty minutes they cried.
" You better get," Hagrid stuttered. " Don't want to miss lunch."
The trio nodded and left Hagrid. Once inside they took their seats at the Gryffindor table. Ginny rushed to Ron's side tears falling from her eyes.
" Ron, you can't leave," she wailed. " You are the only brother I have got here," she cried.
" It will be okay, Ginny," Ron grinned. " You can see me during the Christmas holidays."
" That is so far away," she whined.
After Dumbledore made a small announcement everyone began to eat. Pushing his food away in disgust Ron sat quietly.
" You must eat something," Hermione urged.
" I have to tell you guys how this all happened," Ron said.
" What?" they asked.
" How I became," he whispered. " A werewolf."
Flashback
It was a bright summer morning and the Weasly kids were playing a game of qudditch.
" Hey, Ron!" Fred shouted.
" What?" he yelled back.
" You let the bludger get away," George complained.
" It was your job to watch it," Fred frowned.
" Why? Both of you are the beaters," Ron argued. " Why can't you both watch it? You are supposed to anyway."
Fred glared at Ron ordering him to go look for it. Sadly Ron obeyed looking in the back of the house. Searching everywhere he couldn't find it. The sun slowly was setting, so Ron began to walk back home. There was a snap and Ron spun around, but there was no one there. Quickly he raced to his front door and the creature raced too.
Finally Ron made it to his door, but he was too late. Sharp teeth bit down on his ankle and dragged him away from his doorstep. Yelling for his parents he was surprised to find out that no one could hear him. Pain surged through Ron's body as he fainted. The next bright sunny morning his mother and father found him outside. They both were too worried to ask him what happened. So Ron didn't tell anyone because he didn't want them to think that he was going to become a werewolf. He didn't want his family to shun him.
End Flashback" And that is what happened," Ron ended.
" Didn't they think it was strange when you started disappearing every time the moon was full?" Hermione asked.
" Yes, but I just fed them lies," Ron explained.
" So that was what I saw the night before we went back to Hogwarts," Ginny pondered. " See I was so excited to go back to Hogwarts that I couldn't sleep, so I looked out my window. And there outside was a werewolf. I was so scared after that I went right to sleep hoping that the animal wouldn't come inside."
Ron watched Pro. Dumbledore walk over to him. It was time for him to leave Hogwarts forever. Taking a huge breath Ron followed the headmaster outside. The huge black train stood waiting for him to enter. As he climbed aboard he saw his friends waving. There was no one else on the train with him, but there was someone in the same compartment with him. She had long brown hair and chocolate brown eyes. She was wearing a long black dress. He guessed she was some type of guard.
" Hi," he smiled.
" Hello," she answered back.
" So, what are you doing here?" he asked.
" I am a supposed to keep you from getting off the train and murdering everyone," she calmly explained.
Ron's expression showed he was ashamed. Was he really that dangerous? The train chugged down the tracks slowly making a low grumbling sound. As his head drooped Ron tried to stay awake, so he would be ready to leap off the train once it stopped. His eyelids began to fall as he entered a deep sleep. A strong nudge woke him up. Looking up he came face to face with the guard. She informed him that he needed to exit the train. Rubbing his eyes Ron walked down the stairs.
" Ronald dear," a high pitch voice broke through the night sky.
Turning to meet the owner of the voice he saw his mom who looked frightened. She shook her head from side to side. Fred and George stood in the back ground along with their father.
" When I heard the news I couldn't believe it," she wailed. " My son a…werewolf."
" No, son of mine is a werewolf," Mr. Weasly boomed. " No way."
Fred and George kept quiet during the whole family reunion. They didn't even say anything when they entered the car. Only when they were in their house did the twins speak.
" So, Ron, you uh…killed someone," Fred whispered.
" Who was it?" George questioned.
" I rather not talk about it," he frowned.
" Come on everyone else already knows," George, whined. " Mum won't tell us. She says it doesn't concern us."
" I think when our brother goes and kills off someone I think it concerns a lot of us," Fred added.
Ron stared at his feet wishing none of this happened.
" Malfoy," he mumbled.
" What?' they asked getting closer.
" Malfoy," he grumbled.
" Who?"
"MALFOY! Okay," he broke down into tears.
" Malfoy, as in Draco Malfoy," they asked.
Ron nodded wiping away his tears. The two twins began to smile.
" Good job, Ron," Fred patted him on the back.
" We thought we would have to do it ourselves," George added.
Both of them looked at each other and broke into laughter. They didn't believe their litter brother. Fred and George especially didn't believe that Ron was a werewolf.
" Ron, you know and we know that you aren't a werewolf," Fred smiled.
" We know that was some excuse for you to tell mum and dad without them knowing what really happened," George assumed. " You probably did something like trying to blow up Pro. Snape's classroom."
" But I am a werewolf," Ron hollered. " I killed someone and I almost killed Harry and Pro. Snape."
" Sure you did, Ron," Fred said.
The twins left the room but George stayed back.
" If you want to tell me what really happened I'm here," he winked.
Ron went to bed that night feeling troubled and a little sick.
