Harry walks over to Lupin, who is standing opposite him. The sun beams through the window, casting a golden glow across Harry's face, making his green eyes more vibrant. Ancient charts drape the wall while gleaming spheres of spun glass orbit one another silently. Lupin paces before a large trunk.

Professor Lupin: You sure about this, Harry? This is very advance magic well beyond ordinary wizarding level

James said, " He's my son. Of course, he can do it."

Which got him whacked on the head by Mia

Monty commented, "Well, he's not wrong."

Which made Mia glare at him

Harry: Yes

Lupin studied Harry as if conflicted, then decides

Professor Lupin: The spell I'm going to teach you is called the Patronus Charm. Ever heard of it?

Harry shakes his head

Professor Lupin: A Patronus is a kind of positive force. The Patronus works like a shield for the wizard who can conjure one. The dementor feeds on it instead of him or her

Just then, the trunk rattles violently. Ad Harry's eyes wander. Lupin snaps his fingers and rings her attention back.

Professor Lupin: But in order for it to work, you must think of a memory. and not just any. This memory needs to be a very happy one and powerful

All the teachers nod

Harry thinks a bit, then nods

Professor Lupin:  Got something? Food, let it fill you up. Lose yourself in it. Then speak the incantation: Expecto Patronum without our wand

Harry: Expecto Patronum

Professor Lupin: Right then. Shall we?

Harry nods and raises his wand. Lupin, watching closely, reaches and grips the lid of the trunk

Professor Lupin: Concentrate Harry Concentrate

 Marlene shouted along with Kol, Barty, Rabastan, and Evans, " Let's go, Harry!"

As Lupin flings open the case, Harry opens his eyes to the sun's bloodlight. The dementor looks particularly horrific.

Harry: Expecto.....Patronum...........

The torches on the wall flicker as a chill breeze fills the chamber. A scream echoes distantly; Harry's hand trembles and his eyes begin to roll up

Sahithi just side-hugged Harry as he smiled into her hair, knowing he appreciated the support she had been given since they were 13 years old.

Harry: Expecto...Expecto....

Professor Lupin: Here!

CRACK! The dementor mutates into a silvery white orb

Professor Lupin: Riddikulus!

Lupin flicks his wand and sends the orb back into the packing case. Harry stands, blinking, dazed. Lupin fishes a chocolate frog from his pocket. Presses it into Harry's trembling hand. But a hand took it from him and put it in his mouth to see it's sahithi

Harry began to recover as he took a bite

Harry looks at sahithi

Harry: When did you come here, love?

Sahithi: I felt something wrong through our Bond, so i rushed here, and i saw you unconscious 

Harry smiled at her and clutched her hand with him as she squeezed in, assuring himself and looking at Professor Lupin
