-Frightening, eh?-
Lupin asked as he walked in, we all were standing infront of a brown wooden wardrobe -Can anyone tell me what's inside?- he asked
-Narnia?- i whispered to Harry quietly, making him chuckle
-It's a Boggart.- Tommy said out loud, Lupin nodded approvingly -Correct Tommy, and can anyone tell me how it looks like?- i was about to answere when i suddenly felt a presence beside me.

-No one knows, it takes the form of a persons worst fear. That's what makes it so...-

-So frightening.- Lupin said and nodded. I looked at the person who stole my answere -How did you get here?- i wispered to Hermione, she raised an eyebrow -I was here the whole time.- she said confused. I shook my head in utter confusion and focused on what Professor Lupin was talking about, how didn't i notice her? Lupin was standing at the front whispering to Neville, he then opened the wardrobe with the flick of his wand.
Out came Professor Snape, he was walking stiffly towards Neville.
Neville pointed his wand at him -Ridickullus.- he shouted in fear. Then Snape suddenly wore a horrible green tight dress, and a red leather handbag. I burst out laughing like everyone else did, oh how i wish i'd have a camera right now.

Remus laughted -Form a line everyone! Let's go!- he put on some music.
I was standing first, lucky me eh?
The boggart transformed into a man with a wierd skull mask, he wore a black cape and he had a black wand pinted straight at me. I might've been hallucinating, but i'm pretty sure i saw some blonde hair behind that mask. My eyes widened when he took a step towards me, he was about to remove his mask when i shouted -Riddikulus!- he then suddenly wore a pink pixie dress, with a purple tiara and a glitter wand with a star at the end.
I chuckled and stepped away. I locked eyes with Draco, he had a wierd look on his face. I've never seen that face on him before, is he upset about something?

No, it's Malfoy, that's one thing he can't feel. I shook my head and stood beside the wall and watched the others preform, once the boggart got turned into a large clown i felt my blood freeze. I hate clowns, they're so creepy. Then it was Harry's turn, i don't know what i was expecting. Because Harry never shows fear, he always tries to be brave. I watched intently, the boggart turned into a dementor. My eyes widened when Lupin jumped infront of him, the boggart changed into a full moon.

He pointed his wand at it -Ridickullus!- he shouted with a wide smile. It turned into a balloon and flew back into the wardrobe again.
Lupin turned towards the class agian -Well that's enough for today, thank you.- he apologized. I was utterly confused to say the least, why did Lupin protect Harry from the Boggart. They're not dangerous, just frightning, right? It just didn't make any sense. Everone started to leave while Harry stayed behind, they were propably disgussing the boggart accident.
I put my wand in my pocket and made my way out, my fear actually scared me. Who the heck was that man?

Harry's POV

-I must say i was shocked, i expected it to turn into Voldemort.- Lupin said as we stopped walking -I was thinking about Voldemort at the beginning, but then i remembered the night on the train, with the Dementor.- i said in a hushed voice. Remus smiled and leaned against the railing -I'm impressed, that means that your worst fear, is the fear itself.- he said in wonder.

I looked out at the horizon -I heard screaming, a woman. At least i think i did, i think it was mom, the night that she was murdered.- i said sadly. He nodded -Dementors can make us relive our worst memories.- he turned to face me -You're so much like your father, except your eyes, they're like Lily's.- i raised an eyebrow, he turned away and looked out at the horizon -Yes i knew Lily, not only was she a gifted witch, but she was also a very kind woman. She would see the good in every person, even if the person couldn't see it himself.- he said quietly. I smiled lightly -Like Lucy.- Remus smiled at me and nodded -She's so like her.- he frowned slightly as if he thought of something sad.

He shook his head and chuckled -Jacob, he was atracted to trouble. A talent which must've been passed on to both of you.- he said with a smile and went to stand beside me, i chuckled and scratched my neck. He sighted -You're more alike them then what you think, with time you will see how much.- i sighted and looked at my hands -Who was the guy the boggart transformed into when Lucy faced him?- i asked with furrowed eyebrows. He sighted -That was a Deatheater, one of Voldemorts followers.- i raised an eyebrow -A Deatheater? But Lucy has never seen one.- Remus hummed in thought -Maybe she has seen one that will become one?- i furrowed my eyebrows in thought -The only one capable of becoming a Deatheater must be Malfoy.- i scrunched up my nose in disgust.

Remus' eyes widened -Malfoy?- i nodded slowly -His father is an evil bastard, just like himself.- i grumbled. Remus nodded -Promise me to stay away from him, both of you.- Remus said seriously. I nodded -I still don't understand why her greatest fear is a Deatheater.- i mumbeled. Remus shrugged -Maybe it's the man behind the mask she fears.- i laughted -Believe me Professor, but she's not easily scared of anyone.- Remus chuckled -She must've gotten that from Jacob.- we both laughted and headed back to the castle.
