Chapter Four
Professor Lupin walked in to the class shortly after everyone else had arrived; he looked around at them and noticed the odd looks on Harry, Ron and Hermione's faces. "Right well Good Morning class today we are going to be discussing dark creatures. As we all know Voldemort." there was a collective gasp around the class and Hermione just rolled her eyes. ". Has many dark creatures on his side of the up coming war. Some of these as you may know are vampires, some of the werewolves I for one am not going on to his side" Lupin added hastily looking at the students faces. "And dementors, which we will be discussing first. Now I know some of you a Patronus thanks to the DA club held last year. But I only know one student who has been able to conjure a corporeal patronus that means a patronus with a clearly defined form since his third year." As he said this many turned to look at Harry. "Yes you have guessed correctly. Now Harry could you and who else can conjure a corporeal Patronus?" Hermione, was the only person to raise her hand, when she noticed this she could not help but feel very proud "Right, Ms Granger, and Mr Potter, would you both please take it in turns to show us your patronus, class I want you to observe and take notes on what you see. Ms Granger ladies first I think." Hermione nodded and stepped forward thinking of a happy memory - the time she got her first piece of homework back, raising her wand to chest level she looked at the class and said " Expecto Patronum" and a silver otter shot out of her wand. The class applauded and started making notes as the others took there turns. "Well done Hermione, five points to Gryffindor now Harry if you would be so kind." Harry stepped forwarded and cast his mind around searching for a happy memory, the first thing that shot in to his head was himself, Hermione and Ron having a furious snowball fight in his first year. Smiling he whispered the words "Expecto Patronum" and out came the familiar sight of a stag, which galloped around the class chasing Lupin which caused the whole class to laugh before coming to a halt in front of Harry. The stag bowed and disappeared. "I think. your patronus has started. to take on the person.ality of Prongs" Lupin gasped between breathes as he sunk on to his chair trying to surpress his laughter. "Err excuse me professor but who is prongs?" Lavender Brown asked and now the class fell silent looking from Lupin to Harry. "I'm not sure on how to answer that one. Harry?" Lupin dodged around the question. But now everyone was looking at him, "Prongs was my dad's nickname, he cold change in to a stag." "Ok" said Parvati, " But how does Professor Lupin know him?" " Lupin went to Hogwarts with my dad." Harry continued. "Ok class now I want you all to take notes about what I'm going to say. The Patronus charm is an advanced spell that is used to repel dementors. To conjure this spell you need to think of a really happy memory, one I know Harry has used the memory of winning the Quidditch cup. Once you are concentrating really hard on your chosen memory say the incantation Expecto Patronum. Ok now we are going to divide in to groups and try it. Harry, Ron, Hermione, Neville, Dean and Seamus can you help your class mates please."
Soon enough it was time for lunch as the class left the room they were all talking about their patronus as most of them had managed a silver mist and had been told hat their homework was to practice the spell.
On their way to the great hall the Gryffindor sixth year boys and Hermione just chatted about their summers. Which caused Ron and Hermione to ask Harry why he had been avoiding their 'friends' at the train station. "Well I err, I didn't want to speak to them because." before he could finish the explanation he started to glow pure white, it was so bright that the others had to shield there eyes and when they opened them Harry was nowhere to be seen. " So he thinks he can hide from us does he" Ron stated anger present in his tone "we'll just see about that, Accio Map" Soon enough the marauders map came flying along the corridor, Ron raised his wand to the parchment and whispered the phrase "I solemnly swear I'm up to no good" so quietly that no one else could hear him. His eyes franticly searched the parchment but he could not see the dot labelled Harry Potter. "Hermione he's not in the castle!" Ron said panic now replacing the anger in his voice. "We've got to tell Dumbledore" They rushed off to the gargoyle uttered the password and ran up the stairs to Dumbledore's office. When they opened the door they came face to face with Professors Dumbledore, McGonagall and Lupin. "Professors Harry's missing" Hermione started. "Now Ms Granger I'm sure he is just hiding to prevent interrogation." Dumbledore said calmly "No he's not Professor Lupin we used the map and he's not on it" Ron interrupted. "WHAT" yelled Lupin "Have you got it, pass it here" Lupin revealed the map and searched the document for Harry. "They're telling the truth sir" he said dumbstruck. " What happened?" Dumbledore asked as he conjured chairs for everyone.
Mean while Harry Potter woke to find himself lying on a blanket. Though he could still feel the coldness of the stone floor. He raised his head to look around, trying to work out where he was. Out of the side of his eye he could see a hooded figure walking towards him.
