The Crystal Skull

September 18, 2020

The trio went with Hagrid into the forbidden forest to help him with the Thestrals.

"Thank you all for coming" Hagrid said.

"It's no problem, Hagrid" Al said.

"Besides, we see thestrals now" Score said.

"I've figured as much" Hagrid said.

"What's with the Thestrals over there" Al said.

"I don't know" Hagrid said.

They arrived where the thestrals gathered. They then see a dead body stripped of flesh. Everyone was shocked.

"What is that" Score said.

"It's a body" Al said.

"How could the thestrals kill someone" Rose said.

"Don't think they did" Hagrid said.

Hagrid then examines the body and recognized some marks. It was also covered in a web.

"It wasn't the thestrals" Hagrid said.

"What was it" Al said.

"It was Acromantulas that kill this person" Hagrid said.

"Acromantulas, spiders" Rose said.

"That's right. There's a colony not far from here" Hagrid said.

"How do you so much about them" Score said.

"Use to be friends with one of them" Hagrid said.

"You're kidding" Score said.

"Let's look around, chances are he wasn't alone" Hagrid said.

They then started to search to find others. They continued the search. Al then sees something on the ground. He found a stone with a symbol on it. He recognized the symbol from a book.

"Over here" Score said.

Al then puts the stone in his pocket and went over to Score. They then arrived to see body covered in web.

"Whoa" Score said.

"Bloody hell" Hagrid said.

"These guys are dead, same as the other one" Al said.

"Looks like they been dead for weeks" Rose said.

Al then finds a corpse holding something in its arms when the person died.

"Over here" Al said.

They went over to Al. He then removes the webbing and the arms. He finds a bag with something inside. He opens it to find a skull.

"What is that" Score said.

"It's a skull, made out of crystal" Al said.

"There some strange symbols on it" Rose said.

The then hear something in the forest. The Acromantulas came out of hiding and has them surrounded.

"Spiders" Score said.

"There's too many of them" Al said.

"Hagrid, you said you were friend with one of them" Rose said.

"I was, until their dad passed away. They then started to think for themselves" Hagrid said.

"So you saying that they're going to eat us" Score said.

"Yes, Score" Hagrid said.

"Great" Score said.

The spiders then prepare to attack until the Centaurs came in and fired their arrows. The spider then retreated back to the colony.

"Are you all alright" Firenze said.

"We're fine, thanks to you" Hagrid said.

"This the second time you save us" Al said.

"Thank you" Rose said.

The group then walks back to Hogwarts.

"That trip was a waste of time" Score said.

"I won't be to sure" Al said.

He then shows them the bag with the skull inside.

"We should take this back, it could be important" Al said.
