YOU ALL NOW RUSH DOWN THE STAIRS TOWARDS HAGRID'S HUT.

your good mood was put on standby once more at the reminder of what would be happening shortly.

you all run up, there were a few ferrets hanging from a stick. buckbeak was sitting carefully in hagrid's patch of pumpkins

you glance at buckbeak as hagrid invites you all inside, yu stand beside hagrid as he looks out at buckbeak.

"oh, look at him. loves the smell of the trees when the wind blows through 'em" hagrid smiles bitterly.

"why don't we just set him free?"harry questions.

"ah, they'd know it was me. then dumbledore'd get into trouble. he's coming down, you know, dumbledore. says he wants to be with me when they.." hagrid's smile drops, "when it happens"

"great man, dumbledore" hagrid swallows thickly, stepping away from the window, you step back, sitting next to ron.

"a great man" hagrid sniffles, throwing some food to an odd looking animal in the corner.

"we'll stay with you too, hagrid" you say.

"you'll do no such thing!"

you tilt your head.

"think i want you seeing something like that? no. you just drink your tea and be off. oh. before you do, ron.."

hagrid steps over to a small bench, grabbing something out of a tin.

you cross your arms.

"scabbers! you're alive!" ron says gleefully, taking him from hagrid's hands.

you step back next to hermione, eyeing ron expectantly.

"keep a closer eye on your pet" hagrid says.

"i think that means you owe someone an apology" hermione says, stepping up.

"right. next time i see crookshanks and himiko, i'll let 'em know!"

"i meant us!" hermione says in annoyance.

you flinch slightly as the jar beside you splits into two, it's contents spilling out onto the table and floor.

"blimey. what was that?" hagrid questions.

you peer through the sand, taking out a medium sized rock from beside the broken jar.

harry hisses in pain as something hits the back of his neck, "ow!"

he looks out the window, his eyes going wide.

"hagrid"

hagrid steps forward, "oh, crikey"

you peer out, dumbledore, the minister and that creepy axe guy were walking out to the hut.

"it's late. it's nearly dark. you shouldn't be here. someone sees you outside the castle this time of night, you'll be in trouble. big trouble. particularly you, harry"

a loud knocking is heard, "with you in a moment!" hagrid calls in a cheery voice.

he grabs a blanket, covering the odd animal in the corner.

"quick. quick!" he ushers you all to the back door.

"hagrid. it'll be fine. it'll be okay" harry reassures. 

hagrid nods thankfully, "go on, go on!"

hermione swings the door open, you peek out. dumbledore was pointing some stuff out to the other two, hagrid opens the door for them, inviting them in.

once they were all in, you all rush out towards the pumpkin patch, ducking behind a large thing of stacked pumpkins.

you furrow your eyebrows, watching the exchange between the four.

you whip your head around along with hermione as the sound of a twig snapping is heard behind you.

you narrow your eyes, you could have sworn you had just seen a tuft of black and brown hair.

"what?" harry asks, turning around as well as ron.

"i thought i just saw... never mind"

"let's go!" ron says, cradling scabbers.

you all duck from the window's view as you run, making your way back up the stairs.

you glance longingly at buckbeak as you run off.

you all run up by the rocks, you feel your eyes go glossy as you watch the four of them step outside, the axe guy readying his weapon.

you flinch, crying out silently as the sound of the axe going through reaches your ears.

you cover your mouth with your hand, hugging harry tightly and shielding your face.
