Chapter 8: The Evil Bludger
During the days leading up to the first game of the year. Nothing much happened other than Hina and Maya finding out that Ginny spent most of her time writing her diary. The two best friends knew she needed fresh air and bad and took every chance they got to pry her away from that diary.
It rarely ever worked.
"I wonder if the diary is an evil object sucking out her energy." Joked Maya.
Hina laughed after all, it couldn't be true.
However as the game approached, Luffy and Franky presented Dumbledore with an idea of a temporary Quidditch Tower so that the Straw Hats can use as well as their kids and their friends.
Dumbledore expected the idea and Franky built the tower.
Ironically the tower was better built than the other towers. Proving that when it comes to building you can't beat the Speedo clad Cyborg.
When it was game day, the students who were close to the crew, which included Hermione, Ron, Ginny (who was pried away from the diary), Luna (wearing a really weird lion hat), Cedric, Cho, a friend Cho invited and Cormac.
"Cormac were you invited?" asked Luffy.
"Of course I was." Said Cormac lying though his teeth.
"Just ignore him and maybe he'll goo away." Whispered Hina.
"It's good this is the Gryffindor Slytherin game, we wouldn't be able to come up here." Said Cedric.
"Well I'm sure you would sit here during the other Slytherin games." Said Hancock.
"Since you two are the seekers, you think Draco is going lose?" asked Hina.
"It really depends on if the rumors are true about his father buying the team Nimbus 2001s to get him onto the team." Said Cho.
"It's true." Said the Straw Hats, their kids, Hermione and Ron.
"I'm not much of a Quidditch fan and even I think that's low." Said Marietta, Cho's friend who joined because Cho pressured her into it.
In the locker room, the Gryffindor team got ready for the game, Oliver was giving a pep talk to the team which went ignored by Haru.
"All right! I will beat Malfoy and show him that it depends on skills not bribery." Said Haru with a lot of determination.
"Blimey looks like Haru is taking much more seriously than ever." Said Fred.
"Well Malfoy did get the same position as him just to show he's better than him." Said Katie joining the conversation.
And so when they were all ready they got to the pitch.
With taking the air the two teams stared the game.
"Welcome to the start of this year's Quidditch season. I asked Pro. McGonagall if I could sit with the Straw Hats… she would let me." Said Lee once again doing commentary, "I was really hopping to talk about Malfoy and how he bribed the team in order to face Haru… but oh well."
"Mr. Jordan!" shouted Pro. McGonagall.
Haru chuckled when he heard that.
That was when he saw the Bludger come at him. He mange to dodge quickly.
"Missed me!" said Haru with a sigh of relief.
However the Bludger came back, Haru managed to dodge, it came back to him again.
In the Straw Hats stands.
"That Bludger." Said Hermione.
Usopp slipped on his goggles.
"The Bludger is following him." Said Usopp.
"Someone made it so that it only follows Haru!" shouted Luffy.
That group wasn't the only ones that noticed.
"Looks like the Bludger has been switched or cursed to only follow Haru! If I were to guess I would say it was those bloody cheaters Slytherin." Said Lee.
"Mr. Jordan!" scolded Pro. McGonagall.
"Weasley!" yelled Oliver to one of the twins, "Protect Monkey!"
Fred nodded and went to go protect the younger boy.
Haru mange dot dodge the Bludger once again.
"Hey Haru!" shouted Fred.
"Thanks! I could use you help." Said Haru.
Fred mange to bat away the Bludger many times.
In the Straw Hat tower…
"I'm going to kick who ever did that my son's ass!" shouted Luffy, "This is really unfair! This is almost as bad a Foxy!"
"Foxy?" asked both Marietta and Cormac.
"Long story." Sighed Nami.
"Wow… it's true…" said Hina, to Ginny and Maya, "Cormac is so full of himself he didn't really read Haru's letters."
Both Maya and Ginny laughed.
Back in the pitch, Draco decided to add his two cents (or would be adding two knuts…)
"What is it Potter? Need a little help?" asked Malfoy with a cocky smirk.
That was when Fred hit the Bludger at Malfoy which couldn't aim itself at Haru in time and hit the snide Pure Blood sending him spinning.
Haru laughed that's when he saw the Snitch.
Malfoy saw it as well, he managed to get his broom in control. The two were neck and neck. Haru managed to grab the Snitch… just as the Bludger hit him in the arm with a sickening crack.
Haru fell the ground in pain.
"Haru!" shouted Luffy from the stands, he launched himself to the ground at the same time Gilderoy got himself down there.
"Haru are you okay?" asked Luffy.
"Other than my broken arm, I'm just fine." Said Haru.
"You have a broken arm?" asked Gilderoy, "Don't worry I'll fix it up."
"No that's fine!" said Haru.
"You don't need to. You should leave it to Poppy." Said Luffy.
"Nonsense." Said Gilderoy, that was when he muttered an incantation to Haru's broken arm. The good news was that Haru felt no more pain, the bad news, Haru no longer had bones.
"What did you do to me!" shouted Haru.
Luffy unleashed a small amount of Haki on the pretty boy who really shouldn't have gotten that job.
"Come on Haru." Said Luffy helping his son up, "We're going to Poppy."
However a gurney arrived at that point, so Luffy didn't have to take Haru to the Medical Wing himself, however they made Gilderoy come along.
"Next time Pro. Lockhart, take a student to me, I can heal a broken bone in a jiffy." Said Madame Pomfrey, "But re-growing them is another matter."
"Never do that again." Said Luffy.
"Yes sir." Said Gilderoy.
The blonde "professor" ran out of the room.
"I can see why Chopper and Kaya respect you so much." Said Madame Pomfrey with a slight smile.
She gave Haru a potion, "You have to drink it all." She said.
Haru gulped and began to drink the potion, it tasted awful but he managed to think about the taste of the devil fruit that that helped him get though taste.
"What do you think mom is going to do to him?" asked Haru with a smile.
"I don't know… but it won't be pretty." Said Luffy.
"You think she's going to kill him?" asked Haru.
"No… if anything ask him to get into the most awkward position possible then turn him into a stature until his next class." Said Haru.
Both of them laughed, even joined by Madame Pomfrey who felt that that man right full dissevered it.
That was when Haru stopped laughing an gritted his teeth.
"Looks like the potion is starting." Said Madame Pomfrey.
"Don't worry about it." Said Haru, "We'll catch that guy and make him pay."
"Thanks." Said Haru.
Luffy left, and Haru sighed. He knew that he was going to be there all night judging by Madame Pomfrey's expression.
"This is going to be a long night." Sighed Haru.
Next Time: Dobby the House Elf returns and reveals he was the one that sent the Bludger on Haru! Not only that but he accidently reveals that there's more to the Petrifaction than meets the eye! Not only that but the someone else is petrified... and this time it's human!
