"Hagrid, why is this forest so forbidden anyway?" Ron asked irritated, they'd been wandering for hours.
"I forget exactly." At this Hermione quirked an eyebrow at the boys, a hopeless look in her eyes.
"Ron, it's forbidden because of all the dangerous magical creatures here." Harry sounded acutely annoyed.
"Really…hey what's that?" He pointed to a spot in the distance.
"Oh Ronald, stop trying to scare us."
"I'm not, I heard something."
Hagrid made a pained face. "Alright, I'll check it out, stay here you three." His massive form disappeared into the forest, leaving them in silence. Hermione managed to cling to both Ron and Harry in the tense minutes that ticked by.
"Do you think something happened?" They both gave her a look that said, "are you crazy bitch, of course something happened, this is Hogwarts".
"Arg, they're eating me!" A voice that was unmistakably Hagrid's screeched.
Eyes wide and breathing shallow, the trio dashed forward to help the fallen man. They reached him too late, Hagrid lay on the forest floor unmoving. Something sat above him, face buried in intestines. Slowly, it turned its head to reveal a decaying face.
"Ugh, uhhh." Was all the noise it made as came slowly toward them.
"What the hell is it?" Ron's face had lost all color.
Harry and Hermione , being familiar with muggle horror movies answered in unison. "Zombie!" Before dragging Ron along with them in flight.
"What's a zombie?"
"The undead that eat your flesh." Hermione still managed to be the one to answer a question first. The zombie was still following them and was in short order joined by a whole gang of zombies, no fancy dance moves included.
"Shit, we'll have to stand and fight." Harry scrambled for his wand. "Adeva Kedavra!"
"You fucking moron, they're already dead!"
"Well you think of something Miss perfect."
"Incindio!" A zombie in the encroaching group burst into flames and stumbled about before falling over.
In vain the three hurled spells at the mass of creatures. Moments passed and Harry looked around to find himself alone and surrounded, though he could still hear his friends in the distance. "Jesus Christ, what next?"
A small number of creatures encroached on him and he bolted off into the forest, trying to desperately to out run them. Back against a tree, he shouted enchantments randomly as he sunk to the ground. A near skinless face edged closer and closer. He closed his eyes waiting for death.
The unmistakable sound of a gun shot caused him to open them. Glancing behind his he saw a man with incredible hair holding a smoking gun.
"You alright?" The American spoke as he kicked the fallen zombie.
"I'm fine, but who the bloody hell are you?"
"The name's Leon Kennedy, I deal with this sort of thing. You can move along, I've got the situation under control. He vanished into the dark and more gunshots were heard.
Harry stared after him wide eyed for a moment before trekking back to find his friends. They were sitting in a clearing looking completely traumatized. Hermione threw her arms around him.
"Harry, did he save you to?"
"Huh?"
"The sexy American."
"She means the irritatingly smug yank." Ron interjected.
"Oh yeah him, he did. Let's get out of here."
