Alex Hale Book 1 by Spielar

Chapter 8

The rest of the classes were the same as usual. The only interesting thing that happened was on the day of broom class.

I had eaten a quick breakfast and went to the library to read a couple books before class so I wasn't around for when Neville got into it with Draco over his rememberal. Harry and Ron filled me in when we got to the quidditch field.

"So Draco, still picking on others I hear." I said to Draco from across him.

"I didn't do anything this time Hale." Draco said slightly sneering. "All I did was look at the stupid thing and gave it right back."

"True, just don't be doing anything bad to people and you can have a lot more friends than those two." I said pointing at Crabbe and Goyle who were currently punching the air and picking their nose respectively.

He just sneered and said. "They aren't friends, they're underlings, there's a difference."

Madam Hooch came out and blew her whistle and the rest is history.

After Draco grabbed the rememberal I looked up at him and yelled up at him to come down and give it to me,

"Your shadow won't help you this time Hale." Draco sneered down at me. "Why don't you come get it, unless you're scared." He mocked me.

A second later Harry zoomed by me and tried to grab the rememberal from Draco. "Give it here Malfoy or I'll knock you off your broom." Harry threatened angrily.

"Yeah knock him off his broom." Ron cheered him on.

"Shut it Ron." Hermione told him. "Professor Hooch said she would expel anyone she found riding their brooms. It's not worth it Harry just come back and get it back later." Hermione yelled up to him.

Harry tried for another grab and almost got it causing Draco to sneer even more viciously.

"If you want it so bad then go get it." Draco roared out and chucked the rememberal as far as he could.

Harry roared past him heading for the castle tower and then he caught it.

There was a lot of cheering until McGonagall came out and took him. I took the rememberal before he was taken. I planned to give it to Neville later when he got back to the dorm, but first.

"So you think you can mock me huh Draco." I said menacingly with a glare as I locked onto Draco.

"Nooo." Draco screamed out as he started running towards his broom.

"Zero get him." I ordered.

Zero burst out of my shadow and bounded over in a flash catching Draco before he could even get halfway to his broom. This caused the other people in class to all freak out over the sudden appearance of Zero.

Zero had grown a lot since we had first bonded. He was now over 8 feet long and stood at 5 feet tall at his shoulders. He was almost entirely muscle and you could see the shadows on his fur undulate as if trying to hide him even in broad daylight.

"Well Draco." I said as I walked over. "Any last words before we begin your punishment."

"My father won't stand for this." Draco whimpered out.
