Chapter 13: New plan
"What the bloody hell happened?" Ron asked.
"I don't think the potion worked." Harry said.
"Actually, I think it did." Johnny stared at them.
"Ok. That's just creepy." Harry said staring at the cute Border collie in front of them. "Now what?"
"Take me to my sister." Johnny said. Harry and Ron walked out of the bathroom with Johnny on their heels. They walked back up to the Gryffindor tower and into the common room. Sue was sitting by the fire reading a book. There were a few others in the common room but they were not paying attention to Harry for once. Johnny sat next to the chair Sue was sitting in. He rested his head on the arm of the chair. He stared up at her with big, blue eyes. Harry and Ron watched.
"Hey guys."
"Hey." She looked down at Johnny.
"Aww. Aren't you just the cutest little thing that you ever did see." She scratched him behind the ear. She tapped her lap. "Come here, boy." He jumped into her lap. He licked her face. "Aren't you just the sweetest little doggie I ever did see. Who does he belong to?"
Harry and Ron looked at each other. "Um…I guess you."
"Me? Why me?"
"You'll see."
"Where's Johnny? I didn't see him with you when you came in."
"That's because you're not looking low enough."
"What do you mean?" She remembered the furry dog in her lap. She looked into his eyes. There's something familiar about his eyes. She said. "Johnny!?"
"Hi." Johnny said from his furry body. Sue let out a soft scream. "What the hell? What did you do?"
"Why do you automatically assume I did something wrong?"
"You have four legs and you're furry. What did you do?"
"He tried to make a potion that let him steal your powers."
"Why on earth would you want to do that? You like your powers."
"It was the only way to get in the Slytherin common room undetected."
"What's there?"
"Hermione." The three boys said together.
"Oh. Well, maybe the potion worked. Just not the way you wanted." Sue said petting Johnny. He started whimpering. "Are you crying?"
"No." Johnny said. "Will you help us?"
"Of course. I'll help you. On one condition?"
"What?"
"You let me in on the rescue mission." Johnny tried giving her his smile.
"Deal."
