"Oww!" Ron yelped, dropping Scabbers.
"What happened?" Ophelia asked worriedly as she moved closer to her brother.
"He bit me. Scabbers," Ron said, quickly running after his pet rat.
"Ron! Ron, wait!" Ophelia called, chasing after him. "Leave the bloody rat!"
Harry and Hermione ran after them, all heading toward the Whomping Willow.
"Scabbers, come back. Scabbers, you bit me!" Ron finally caught his pet rat.
"For bloody sake, we should just leave it!" Ophelia yelled angrily behind him. She was chasing that rat, but not to give it back to Ron...
Farther back, Harry and Hermione stopped, looking at where they were headed.
"Harry, do you realize what tree this is?" Hermione comments staring at how close Ophelia and Ron were.
"That's not good...Ron, run! Ophelia, get away from the tree!"
"Harry, Hermione, run! It's the Grim! Harry!" Ron yelled right back, pointing at the big shaggy dog that appeared behind them.
"Don't worry, Ron, he's harmless," Ophelia said, recognizing the dog. But something was off; he was snarling and baring his teeth. Snuffles never looked so menacing.
"He doesn't look so harmless, does he?"
"Snuffles! Stop it, boy. Stop! Wait!" Ophelia yelled as Snuffles ran past them and latched onto Ron, dragging him by the foot.
"Ron! Ron, wait!" Ophelia acted on impulse, throwing herself forward and grabbing onto Ron's hand, trying to pull him back but getting dragged along instead.
This was her brother. There was no way she would let go of him.
"Harry! Help!"
"Ophelia! Ron—Lia!" Harry yelled, running toward their friends who were being dragged inside the Whomping Willow.
Harry jumped forward, grabbing Ophelia's hand. The force of being held back by Harry caused her to let go of Ron.
"Ophelia, hold on! I'm going to pull you up," Harry said, beginning to pull her out of the hole in the Whomping Willow.
"Wait, Harry, watch out!" Ophelia yelled, seeing the branches move.
"Harry, duck!" Hermione shouted.
Harry ducked quickly, but not fast enough, as a branch slammed into him, causing him to let go of Ophelia, making her fall down the hole.
Ophelia slammed onto the rocky ground, causing a stone to cut her forehead.
Ophelia tried to stand up, ignoring the pain in her temple, only to stumble against the wall, unable to keep her balance.
