Book Two: My Forever Love

Chapter Twenty Eight

Edeline’s P.O.V
After seeing Umbridge, she had the other Slytherins bring in the others as we stood there as Harry sat in front of Professor Umbridge as she talked with him, “you were going to Dumbledore weren’t you?” she asked Harry, “No” was all Harry said before she slapped him, “you’ve gone mad.” I said to her, “You sent for me, Headmistress?” Snape asked as he stood there, “yes, Snape. The time has come for answers whether he wants to give them to me or not. Have you brought the Verita Serum?” she said to him, “I’m afraid you used up all my stores interrogating students. The last of it on Miss. Chang” Snape told her and I furrowed my brows a little before he continued, “unless you wish to poison him, then I assure you I would have the greatest sympathy if you did. I cannot help you.” Snape said to Umbridge and as he was about to leave, Harry quickly spoke up, “he’s got Padfoot. He’s got Padfoot at the place where it’s hidden” Harry said to Snape causing him to stop and turn around, “Padfoot? What is Padfoot? Where what is hidden?  What is he talking about Snape?” Umbridge asked Snape, “no Idea.” was all Snape said before leaving, “very well. You give me no choice, Potter. As this is an issue of Ministry Security you leave me with no alternative. The Cruciatus Curse ought to loosen your tongue.” Umbridge said, “you can’t do that.” I said to him, “ she’s right, it’s illegal” Hermione said to Umbridge, “Cornerlius doesn’t know won’t hurt him.” Umbridge said as she laid the picture facie down, “I’m sure he’d find out sooner or later.” I said to him, “you better think of something Hermione.” I said to her before she shouted, “tell her Harry.” she said, causing Umbridge to stop what she was doing, “tell me what?” Umbridge asked her, “well if you won’t tell her where it is, we will” I said to Harry as I went along with it, “where what is?” Umbridge asked us, “Dumbledore’s secret weapon.” Hermione said to her, “you three are showing me where this Weapon is.” Umbridge said as she let Harry, Hermione and myself go.

We eventually started to lead her somewhere in the Forbidden Forest, “how much further?” Umbridge asked us, “not far.” Hermione told her, “I hope.” I whispered as we continued, “had to be somewhere students couldn’t find it accidentally.” Hermione said to Umbridge, “what are you two doing?” Harry asked us, “improvising.” Hermione told him, “we thought it might work.” I whispered to him before we saw that Higrids brother was gone, “oh dear.” I said to them, “well? Where is this Weapon?” Umbridge asked us, “we thought it was here.” I said to her, “there isn’t one, is there? You were trying to trick me. You know, I really hate children.” Umbridge told us, “and we really hate you so there’s something we have in common.” I told her, as she continued to point her wand at us before we heard something and saw Centars, “this should be interesting.” I whispered to Harry and Hermione, “you have no business here Centars. This is a Ministry matter.” Umbridge said to them, “they’re angry enough as it is so I don’t think they care.” I said to Umbridge, “lower your weapons. I warn you, under the law as creatures of mere human intelligence-” Umbridge said before one of them tried to shoot at us and Umbridge blocked it, “How dare you? Filthy Half Breeds.” Umbridge said before casting a spell as rope began to choke it, “please, please stop it.” Hermione begged, “NO ENOUGH. I will have order.” Umbridge said, “then I hope a part of that is having you put away.” I said to her, as I tried to cut the rope that was tangled around the Center's neck so that it could breathe before I noticed Hagrid’s brother picked Umbridge up and I chuckled a little, “perfect timing.” I said to myself before I noticed that the Centar was able to get up and attacked along with the others and the three of us tried to get away as Hermione tried to get them to stop before he dropped Umbridge, “Potter, Lupin do something. Tell them I mean no harm.” she said to us before they picked her up, “we’re sorry Professor.” Harry began to say, “we must not tell lies.” Harry and I both said to her as they carried her away before seeing Corp pull out the arrow from his arm, “thank you Corp.” Hermione said to him, “Hermione. Hermione Sirius.” Harry said, “yeah let’s get going.” I said before we rushed off and eventually made it back to school grounds only to eventually meet with the others along the bridge, “how did you get away?” Hermione asked them, “Puking Pastilles. It wasn’t pretty” Ginny said, “told them I was hungry and wanted some sweets. Of course they told me to bugger off and ate the lot themselves.” Ron told us and I laughed a little, “that was brilliant.” I said to him, “that was clever Ron” Hermione said to him, “it’s been known to happen.” he said, “he was brilliant.” Neville said to him, “so, how are we getting to London?” Neville asked Harry, “look, it’s not that I don’t appreciate everything you’ve done, all of you, but I’ve got you into enough trouble as it is.” Harry said as he tried walking away before Neville spoke up, “Dumbledore’s army is supposed to be about doing something real, or was all that just words to you.” Neville said to him, “maybe you don’t have to do it all by yourself mate.” Ron said to him, “they’re right Harry, we’re going to need all the help we can get.” I said to him, “So how are we going to get to London?” Harry asked and I smiled a little, “we fly of course.” Luna said, “I’m an Animagus now. I can probably take at least two people.” I mentioned to them, “since when were you an Animagus?” Ron asked, “since before we were caught, I turned out to be a pegasus.” I said to him before we got off the bridge and I turned into my Animagus form as Harry and Hermione got on my back before we flew to London.
