Hogwarts's Youngest Assistant

Chapter 16: Dueling Club

Blue: Something is in the walls!

I run towards the wall where I heard the voice and placed my ear against it. There was nothing at first but then I heard the same voice but somewhere else.

???: Kill.....Muggle

I go towards the direction where I heard the voice and tried to find it but with no success. It was really dark and I was bad at focussing so this is already looking like an absolutely disaster class for me.

As I walked, I accidentally collided with someone and when my vision started to adjust to the darkness, I could see that it was Ginny who I knocked into.

Blue: Ginny? Sorry about that, I couldn't see! But what are you doing here?

Ginny: I-I don't know, I w-was walking around but I didn't pay attention

Blue: Okay that's fine, I'll take you back to your common room

I wrap my arm around Ginny and take her to the Gryffindor Common room before Mr Filch could find her. I was still confused on why she was up at this time, it was really strange.

Luckily my room is near her common room so I didn't have to walk much. However I am reminded that my hearing senses were really good when I heard movement behind me. I stopped immediately and tried to hear for those noises.

It sounded like.....something was dragging itself across the ground...like a snake. I look behind but I couldn't see anything.......was something there?

Am I not seeing it? Or am I just hallucinating? It is late right now.

However it wasn't my imagination, it was all reality as I saw a figure moving towards me, it wasn't a person but some sort of creature. It had yellow glowing eyes but my mind told me to look away.

Luckily I did and when I did look away, I quickly ran off and didn't look back. The movements of the thing behind me was getting faster but luckily I managed to reach my room and shut the door behind me, locking it.

I held my breath and listened for anything outside, it was quite but I could hear something slithering past. Once it was gone, I took a deep breath and slowly calmed myself down.

Blue: Thank God Dumbledore built my room near the Gryffindors! What the hell was that?! It wasn't fake, it was all real, I can easily tell if something is real or not......I have to tell Dumbledore...

I decided to go to my bed and get sleep....while hiding under the covers......don't judge me.

This is the one magic I know, the blanket method. It guarantees safety from the spooky business.

When the next day came, I went to Professor Dumbledore and told him about my encounter. He looked really concerned and looked around Hogwarts alongside Professor Snape and Professor Mcgonagall.

However they couldn't find this thing I mentioned, Dumbledore told me that if I see this thing at night again then I should run and lead it to him so that he can deal with it.....

But I was still spooked, could it speak? I did hear "Kill Muggle" before. Does this thing target Muggles?! I am one after all but lord almighty I am not taking enthusiastic walks around Hogwarts again!

Not until we get rid of this thing of course.

The next few weeks went like a breeze, December was here and Christmas was around the corner. I was currently leaving the Muggle Studies Classroom after finishing a lesson and was about to head to my bed and get some slee-.

Lockhart: Professor Light! May I have a word?

GOD DAMMIT!

WHAT DOES THIS PRAT WANT?!
