Impeccable : A Harmony Story

Chapter Nine - The Three-Headed Dog

Our Trio was eating breakfast when their favourite-Sorry I meant least favourite Slytherin came strolling with his newfound goons, Crabbe and Goyle. Theodore Nott was approaching the three smartest Gryffindors in their year.

"Potter. I'll only ask you this once. Do you want to become friends with me?," Nott said with an air of superiority due to his Pure-Blood status, holding out his hand for Harry to shake.

"No thanks, Nott. Why don't you befriend some egg yolk instead?" Our golden boy told the little evil idiot. Then he used Accio to get a raw egg, then he put Nott under a mind control spell to make him take the egg, then crack it on his head. After all that, Theo finally snapped out of it.

"You used an unforgivable curse on me, you filthy half-blood! I'm telling Professor Snape!" Nott screamed, making people look at them from all the tables. "Actually, it's just a simple mind trick, Nott. And it only worked on you because you're too stupid to be alive without your mommy protecting you from being kicked in your privates," Our Pottah replied to the idiotic Slytherin.

"I challenge you to a Wizard's Duel, Pottah. Today, midnight, at the trophy room. It's always open," Nott challenged our golden boy. "Let's see if I can do enough harm for you to end up fatter than your two spaceship guards, Nott. Then maybe you'll be able to shut up about being Pure-Blood. My second's Hermione," Harry added after that. "Sorry, Neville."

Time Skip to midnight, Gryffindor Common Room.

The trio met up in the common room, however, unknown to them, a certain pig was hiding in the forming shadows of the fire that was burning low. That's right people. Ronald Stupid Pig Weasley was going to follow the trio. Will he succeed? Find out in the next chapter! No, just joking people. I ain't that type of guy.

"I feel like someone is watching us," Neville whispered to his two friends, who looked around, then Harry performed a spell neither of them had even discovered. "Homenum Revelio," Harry muttered, then he looked over at a growing shadow from the fire, and then, suddenly, a human fell face-forward into the ground with a thud. 

"Of course, it's the idiotic WinnoPig wanting to spy on us," Harry spoke loudly, audible enough for the little Pig to hear. Then he and Neville both kicked the little Pig in his um, "private square" if you get what I mean. 

"Let's go, it's nearly midnight," Hermione added under her breath, "Boys..." As a comment to what they did to the pig. Both boys nodded, climbing out of the portrait hole. Thankfully, The Fat Lady wasn't there. 

They arrived at the trophy room with five minutes to spare 'till midnight, and they had a funny feeling that Nott the Brog wasn't coming.

Midnight came, and guess what? Instead of Crabbe, Goyle and Nott, they heard a damn cat and another voice which they hoped they would never hear when roaming after hours. Filch. "Oh we'll find those filthy students, my dear Mrs. Norris," The sounds of Filch radiated through the trophy room, as he got closer and closer, Harry nudged both Neville and Hermione, having them follow him. They got out of the trophy room all right, the hard part was going back to Gryffindor Tower.

They ran through the corridors until they ended up in the Third Floor Corridor. That's right, THE corridor. They didn't know where they were, only that it was a dead end. They heard the sound of Filch and his filthy fur covered thing come closer. They pushed the door, no luck, it was locked...

"Alohomora!" Hermione casted out of nowhere, and a small click sounded and the door opened a little bit. They went in, closed the door, but trouble was not over.

They heard a growing growl from behind them, and they wheeled around, thinking they were dead..

"That's a Cerberus!" Harry yelled excitedly, making both his friends look at him in confusion.

They focused back on the monster, and saw it has three heads. Even it was confused why Harry wasn't scared as he approached it and pet all three of its heads.

"C'mon you both, they aren't that scary. You've just got to show you aren't scared of them," Harry said knowingly.

After a bit of convincing, both Hermione and Neville approached it.
Harry, sitting around, noticed a trapdoor under one of the paws, and made a mental note to mention this to Hermione and Neville.

After they were done playing with the Cerberus, who they were still deciding on a name for, they went back up the stairs, and dashed through the corridors until they reached the portrait of the Fat Lady, who reluctantly let them in.

"Hey, Hermione, Neville. I have something to tell you," Harry suddenly spoke as they were going to their dormitories. "What is it, Harry?" Hermione asked, a bit worried. That gave Harry butterflies in his stomach, and made him blush a bit, getting the thought of the trapdoor out of his mind for a second.

"There was a trapdoor under the Cerberus's paw on the left side. I bet every galleon I have in Gringotts it's guarding something," Harry spoke sleepily.

"Same here Harry. I thought it was strange to have that in a school," Neville replied.

"Let's go sleep now, boys. Tomorrow we can talk about this," Hermione commented, ruining the fun of wanting to stay up and investigate.

They all went to bed, but the three of them had only one thought: What is that dog guarding and why is it at Hogwarts?

That's all for now everyone. I'm a bit short on that 1.1k goal, but next one will probably be more than 1k words. I'm skipping straight to Christmas, because no one wants to read after Fluffy. Hopefully next chapter before the 10th of July.
