I walk in a little late to DADA, I had a hard time avoiding myself.

I slide next to Harry as he warily eyes a wardrobe at the front.

"Intriguing, yes? Would anyone like to venture a guess as to what's inside?"

"That's a Boggart, that is." Dean says.

"Very good, Can anyone tell us what a Boggart looks like?"

The professor looks at me so I answer.

"No one knows." Harry jumps so I laugh a little then continue my saying.
"Boggarts are shape-shifters. They take the shape of whatever a particular person fears most.That's what makes it so -"

"So terrifying, yes. Luckily, a very simple charm exists to repel a Boggart. Let's practice it now, shall we? Without wands, please... Riddikulus!"

"Riddikulus" we all say.

"This class is ridiculous." Draco says and I send him a glare.

"Good. So much for the easy part. You see, the incantation alone is not enough. What really finishes a Boggart off is...
laughter. You need to force it to assume a shape you find truly amusing. Neville, come up here, will you?"

Neville eyes the rattling wardrobe, and steps forward queasily.
"What would you say is the thing that frightens you most?"

He mutters something but I can't hear what he says.

He then repeats "Professor Snape."

"That's understandable." Ron says and a nudge him and give him a look and tune back into the lesson.

"It won't. But I want you to picture her clothes, only her clothes, very clearly in your
mind. Can you do that?"

I am so lost...

Suddenly Professor Snape comes out of the wardrobe, then I remember he's his boggart.

"R-riddikulus!" Suddenly Professor Snape in is granny clothes and we all laugh.

"Ron your turn!" Professor says as he starts to play music.

Snape morphs into a mad whirling mass, then mutates into a giant spider as the one in second year. Harry Hermione and I exchange an uncertain glance. Lupin puts his hands on Ron's shoulders to steady him. Ron raises his wand.

"Riddikulus!"

It then turns into a spider on roller skates. Once again the room floods with laughter.

"Form a line please!" Professor then says.

We were lined up as Parvarti, me, Harry, Hermione, Dean, Seamus, and I cant see the rest.

As Parvarti steps up, with diamond-thatched
scales the boggart becomes a giant cobra.

She says the spell and it becomes a giant Jack-in-the-box bobbing back and forth. I step forward and it turns into a dog, the one we saw before we went on the night bus, the one that looks like me. But I'm confused, I'm not afraid of dogs, I have one! Heck, I am one!

The dog then morphs into Sirius Black. Though I am not afraid of him either. Then it changes into a mad whirling mass once more and it's Voldemort. I immediately say 'Riddikulus!' I don't need Harry or anyone else have bad thoughts. Once I say the spell Voldemort then turns into Tom Riddle wearing swim trunks. Just swim trunks. Harry gives me a look as does the rest of the class as I sheepishly slide aside.

Harry step forward readily. Concern
flickers through mine and Professor Lupin's face. Tommy Boy dissipates,The room becoming more sinister, the boggart continues transforming into a dementor and charges for Harry. Professor quickly steps in front and the boggarts shifts into a full moon.

If I heard howling, and there's a 'polite' yet dangerous warewolf on school grounds, and his boggart is a full moon, it must mean-

My thoughts get interrupted by a ballon hitting me in the face and I fall over. Everyone laughs.

"That's a great way to end a lesson." I say sarcastically as someone helps me up.

"Thank-" I realize it's Malfoy then I wipe of my hand that touched to help me up. He then passes me a note.

The note read...

Your dearest cousin,
