Returning from the library, Joe encountered another great battle in the corridor. Incantations flew everywhere, accompanied by "Snot!" "Giant monster head!" "Arrogant!" And squabbles and screams. You don't have to look to know who it is. Joe leaned against the wall in the corner with his arms crossed, seizing a brief moment to calculate what Filch might choose to punish him recently.
Then she made up her mind, took out her wand, took two steps closer to the battlefield, and cast an incantation on the ground. "Bang!" "Bang!" "Bang!" ... the sound of falling one after another.
Joe laughed as she watched the little guys who had been fighting like a raging fire the second before fall to the ground in all sorts of funny positions.
Peter and Sirius rolled together. Lupin held the statue beside him helplessly and did not fall. James pressed down on Snape's stomach, and Snape's arm was still tightly clutching James's neck. Lily, who had hurried over, could not control her balance and threw herself into Joe's arms amidst the shouts of the boys. And then-"What are you guys doing!" A furious roar from Professor McGonagall.
"We just need to find the abandoned unicorn. Be relax buddy. There won't be any problems." Hagrid led the big dog and happily comforted the students who were punished to work in the forbidden forest.
However, he did not need to say anything to comfort them, because apart from the gloomy and poisonous Slytherin, the others were all Gryffindors who were not afraid of the heavens or the earth. It could even be said that the looters had long been eager to try the Forbidden Forest.
James warmly invited Lily to form a team with him, but Lily was still angry at him for provoking Snape and implicating her in deducting points from Gryffindor, so she ignored him. Compared to the looters, Lily was more willing to team up with Joe.
But the men present-James, Sirius, Lupin, and Snape-disagreed. Especially James and Sirius, if Joe hadn't spilled wet and slippery soapy water on the ground, they wouldn't have fallen so badly.
Joe said she was innocent. She said she just wanted to end the fights of a few freshmen and return to the lounge as soon as possible.
In the end, they were divided into three groups. Hagrid brought Lupin and Peter, James, Sirius and Hagrid's big dogs, Joe and Lily, and Snape.
"Why are you dividing the two girls into groups?" Sirius Black protested.
Hagrid laughed and patted Sirius's soft hair. "Miss Mead is not ordinary second grader student. I'm sure she'll take good care of Lily and this Slytherin kid." "Why do you think so?" Lupin asked on behalf of his two friends until Hagrid and the others were far away. "Because that's what Dumbledore said," laughed Hagrid as he rubbed the back of his head.
"Let's look in this direction, okay?" Joe pointed at the left side of the road with her wand and politely asked the other two for their opinions. Lily didn't have any objections, and Snape naturally didn't either.
The first time they entered the forbidden forest, Lily and Snape were a little nervous, especially in the middle of the night when the cries of infiltrating animals could be heard from afar. Joe, on the other hand, raised her wand and, like a sweet sister, cleared the way for them in front of them.
The wind stiffened, the trees and vegetation rustling, and the shadows of the trees shook. "Senior Sister Mead" Lily said cautiously. "You can call me Joe, but can I call you Lily?" Joe turned around and asked the little red-haired beauty in a gentle voice. Lily nodded, seemingly relaxed, and continued to ask, "Why is the cub of the unicorn abandoned?" Looks like Slytherin's black-haired boy is interested.
"Because they are imperfect unicorns, just like humans who are abandoned because of birth defects. Unicorns are even more intolerant of flaws." "Ah" Lily was shocked. In her impression, a unicorn was synonymous with purity, kindness, and beauty. She didn't expect that this creature would actually abandon her parents and children.
"But the chances are very low," Joe added. Then she heard Snape sneer. "It's also a natural law, and the unicorn's living environment makes it impossible for them to raise a defective cub," Joe said, making it easier for Lily to accept. "Then, what are you looking for in the Forbidden Forest?" Suddenly, the black-haired boy asked. Lily looked at Snape strangely and found that Snape had been looking at Joe suspiciously.
"You intentionally involved into the trouble. You intentionally wanted Professor McGonagall to punish you just for coming to the Forbidden Forest, didn't you?" Snape said with a grim face.
Joe was amused by Snape's little manhood until she saw that the boy was a little embarrassed. She purposely lowered her voice and explained, "Yes, I'm looking for something. It's interesting." Lily was shocked. She didn't like breaking the rules. Just as she was about to say something to stop it, she saw Joe put her index finger on his lips and made a silent gesture.
The wind blew even harder, but Lily realized nervously that she could not hear anything other than the sound of the wind. Not even the barking of Hagrid's big dog could be heard. The three of them stopped in their tracks, and the surroundings were completely silent.
A chill surged into Lily's heart. Suddenly, Snape seemed to realize something was wrong and stood in front of Lily.
Joe ignored them and smiled as she took steps forward, greeting a black animal, "Kerry, how have you been?" Lily widened her eyes, and Snape whispered in her ear, "It's thestrals." Actually, he couldn't see this creature, but it wasn't difficult to deduce from all sorts of signs.
While Snape was comforting Lily, Joe had already discussed it with thestrals named Kerry. She took out a glass bottle from her school uniform pocket, and with a slight movement of her wand, a silver gray liquid flowed into the bottle.
Everyone only knew that thestrals was good at flying and had an excellent sense of direction. At the same time, there was an unknown rumor shrouding the creature. But in reality, thestrals's blood had a great use-although they looked skinny, the silver-gray blood had the ability to connect to the darkness. Only clans that were skilled in divination and often dealt with other worlds would know this little secret.
When the bottle was full, Joe closed the lid with satisfaction, and took out another fruit in her pocket-the size of an apple, but tingling with blood-red-and fed it to Kerry. After thestrals finished its extra meal, it let out a low cry and turned its head behind itself.
Joe looked in the direction thestrals was pointing and opened her eyes wide with joy, "Great, Kerry, thank you." Kerry spat out a ball of white gas from nostrils as a response to Joe. Then, Kerry flapped its wings and disappeared.
Joe put away the bottle of Nightingale's blood, turned her head, and said to Lily and Snape, who were all puzzled, "The unicorn cub is right in front. Let's go." "What did you get?" Snape asked hoarsely. Joe pulled her hair with her fingers and said apologetically, "It's a small secret. I'm sorry I can't tell you."
The black-haired boy turned his head awkwardly. "Ah! That's-" Lily pointed excitedly at a golden unicorn cub under a tree ahead.
Then she realized that this cub was different from the other unicorns, it only had three legs. "Poor little fellow" Joe crouched down and gently stroked the little unicorn's back. Then, she raised her head and said to Lily and Snape, whose eyes were shining brightly (for different reasons, of course), "In exchange for keeping it a secret, as long as you don't kill it, you can pick up something."
"Ah?" Lily was stunned. "Don't worry, this little fellow won't mind. After all, we saved its life." Joe took out a piece of candy and fed it to the cub. The little animal's soft tongue licked her palm, itching. She laughed, her face flushed red. Snape pursed his lips and took a step forward. "Seaver." Lily shook her head in disapproval.
Snape paused for a moment, his eyes still longing to see the unicorn cub in Joe's arms. "Alright" Joe sighed, carefully plucking a few hairs from the little animal in her arms, and then gently waving her wand-just as she had done to thestrals, but this time she had only half a bottle of unicorn blood in each of the two small glass bottles.
The cub didn't even bark, let alone resist. It seemed like it was what Joe said. It took this as a thank you gift for saving its life, a docile Ren Joe action. "I'll give you my share. Please help me keep tonight's secret." Joe looked at the two sincerely, her eyes so clean that no one could refuse.
So Lily and Snape nodded and said that they would help her keep it a secret. Joe smiled happily, revealing two shallow dimples. Then she suggested to Lily, "Do you want to hug it?" Taking the unicorn from Joe's embrace, the red-haired, blue-eyed beauty was immediately captured by the cute little animal, her heart soft to the point of being a mess.
Joe looked into the distant forest and said, "Our mission is complete. It's time to go back." As she passed Snape, Joe stuffed the glass bottle and the little bag with the unicorn hair into his hand.
The boy grabbed the things steadily and stuffed them into his pocket the next second.
James and Siris seemed to have established a deep friendship with Hagrid's big dog. On their way back, they talked endlessly about their adventures in the Forbidden Forest. James claimed to have met a werewolf-"a furry, burly big fellow."
Peter listened with envy and fear. Lupin's face was pale, as if he was frightened. Lily reluctantly gave the little horn to Hagrid and assured him that the little animal would be taken good care of-"Don't worry, Evans, Hagrid should be the most fond of magical creatures in the world," James Potter said.
With Halloween approaching, the smell of roasted pumpkins skewed around the corridor. Colorful Halloween decorations refreshed Hogwarts, and black bats flew around walls and ceilings like dark clouds. After a full meal, Joe looked forward to the evening's Halloween feast. But before that, she needed to get rid of the business at hand.
After divining the fortunes of a tall Gryffindor boy and obtaining two bottles of high-quality potions in return, Joe found Demi among the Ravenclaw students who had just finished their transformation class.
"Drink it before you go to bed and you'll be able to dream about what you want to know," Joe handed Demi a small bottle of liquid.
Demi was stunned for a moment, as if she hadn't expected Joe to give her a bottle of potion. The frequency of Joe exploding the crucible reached an all-time high. "As long as it's related to divination, I'm good at it, including making potions. However, I can't do anything outside of this range," Joe said frankly.
Demi hurriedly rushed to the Ravenclaw Tower with the potion in her hand. She didn't even care about Halloween dinner anymore. Joe looked at the brooch in his hand with satisfaction. He cast a small magic spell with his wand, turning the emblem in the middle into a bat, just in line with the theme of Halloween. Then, he happily pinned the brooch on his school uniform and went to the Halloween dinner.
