⠀THE path to her Care of Magical Creatures class was a long one— annoyingly long, to be honest, especially with how much the castle shifted and moved, causing her to get lost —but Y/N didn't let her annoyance or slight exhaustion show on her face. After all, it would be unbecoming of her to show herself in such a state, especially on the first day. Y/N would simply die from the humiliation if she was shown being tired out by merely a long walk.
She finally reached the exit to the main school building— an arched, stone opening at the end of a corridor, a few steps leading down to the top of the hill the castle was on. There was a winding pathway down to where a fairly small, dirty old hut was. Y/N noticed that some students were already standing down there, around the outside of the hut chatting amongst one another.
With a sigh, Y/N stepped out onto the grass, mindfully not stumbling or tripping as she headed down the steep path, internally cringing as she saw her red shoes get marred with dirt.
As she passed the tree line, Y/N noticed something moving out of the corner of her eye, and paused. It was a fairly large, shaggy black dog. It was prowling through the underbrush, sniffing and seemingly searching for something.
That was curious, Y/N had thought that dogs weren't allowed at Hogwarts. Well, not that people paid much attention to that rule anyway, and it obviously wasn't enforced— Ron had a rat, Lee Jordan had a tarantula, Farley had a snake, and Daphne Greengrass had a hare. Y/N somewhat wished she had gotten another animal to bring— perhaps a chupacabra, they were cute, bloodthirsty little things.
The dog suddenly froze, and Y/N refocused on watching, preparing to let her wand fall back into her hand if it were to try and attack her. Its posture tensed and its head darted up toward her, snout curled into a snarl and a growl rising from its throat.
Then, after a split second, it stopped, staring at her with what seemed to be confusion— odd, perhaps it thought she was someone else? Dogs were rather intelligent creatures, after all. Although, Y/N had to admit this one seemed almost too intelligent.
