Silent Love (Harry Potter Love Story)

Chapter 22

We emerge from the bridge and make our way toward Hagrid’s hut.
“Death omens. Honestly if you ask me, divination’s a very wooly disipline. Now, Ancient Runes, that’s a fascinating subject.” Said Hermione.
“Yeah, I read a book about that, it’s very intresting,” I said.
“Ancient Runes? Exactly how many classes are you taking this term?” said Ron
“A fair few,” said Hermione and I know that she’s lying.
 
“Hang on. Ancient runes is the same time as divination. You’d have to be in two classes at once,” said Ron.
“Don’t be silly Ron. How could anyone be in two classes at one?” I asked.
“Broaden you minds...” said Hermione try to sound like Trelawney.
 
Harry, Ron, Hermione and me sit on fat little pouffes in a murky, incense-laden room, along with others.
“Open your book at page 13,” said Hagrid.
“How’s you suppose to open it?” said Malfoy rudely.
“Just stroke the side of the book,” said Hagrid.
“I think this book is funny,” Hermione said.
“Yeah, funny. Just wait for my father to hear about this. Hogwarts is insane, let the servant teach,” said Malfoy.
“Shut up Malfoy,” said Harry, approach Malfoy.
“Uh..,” said Malfoy and the rest of his followers, Malfoy get closer to Harry but suddenly he looks so scared, “Dementor! Dementor!”
 
All of us turn back and see nothing, then Malfoy and all of his possy wear down their robes try to pretend to be a dementor. Hermione hold Harry’s arm and make annoying face with them.
“Just ignore them. They’re worthless,” I said.
“It’s the first time I hear you say something bad,” said Harry.
“There is a first time to everything and I think Malfoy deserve it,” I said and see Neville fall down next to me.
“Neville, are you ok?” I asked and try to help him up.
“I’m ok,” Neville said
“You suppose to stroke it,” I said.
 
Then, Hagrid come with a creature, looks like a horse but have wings and it’s head looks like an eagle.
“Hagrid what is that?” Ron asked.
“That is a hipogriff Ron,” Hagrid said. “Say hello to buckbeak. So, hipogriff is a really pride of themselves. Don’t ever try to not respect a hipogriff. They can be really dangerous. So, who want to try it first.”
 
Everyone steps back except Harry either he’s brave or too fascinating the creature.
“Good man, Harry!” said Hagrid. Harry looks around and realize that he’s the only one that come up.
“That’s it. Easy now.. stop! This here’s Buckbeak, Harry. Yeah, let them make the first move. It’s polite see? Just take step forward, give a bow and if he bows back, you’re allowed to touch him. Ready?” said Hagrid.
Unsure, Harry nods anyway. Steps forward and bows. Buckbeak’s hed cocks, eagle eyes studying Harry cannily. Harry waits and waits.
 
“Back off, Harry! Back off!” I said.
Harry starts to step back, when.. Buckbeak ducks his beak. Hagrid sighs relieved.
“Well done Harry! Go on,give him a pat,” said Hagrid. Tentatively, Harry reaches out, lays his hand on Buckbeak’s fierce back. The class claps. Harry smiles.
 
“Look at that! Now, let’s ride him,” said Hagrid.
“What?” I whispered to Hermione.
“Excuse me?” said Harry.
“We’ll just set you behind the wing joint. Don’t pull any feathers out. He won’t like that,” said Hagrid. Hagrid lifts Harry high, drops him onto Buckbeak’s back and before Harry’s settled, slaps Buckbeak’s hindquarters. Then Buckbeak soar into the air. Risig higher and higher.
 
“Do you think he’ll be ok?” I asked.
“Yeah, he used to fly with broom anyway,” said Ron.
“Do you think a broom is the same with flying with a hipogriff,” said Hermione sarcastically. Ron glared at Hermione.
 
After 15 minutes, they come back. Hagid whistles then, and Buckbeak wheels, beating his way back to the paddock, galloping to a halt. Hagrid slides off, class cheers.
“Good work, Harry!” said Hagrid and then whisper something to Harry.
 
They both grin, when Draco pushes pas them roughly, strids toward Buckbeak.
“Give me a go at that thing. If Potter can do it, it must be easy. You’re not dangerous at all, are you, you great ugly brute..” said Malfoy.
“Malfoy, no!” said Hagrid.
 
In a flash, Buckbeak’s steely talons slash down. Malfoy freezes, looks down at the blood blossoming on his robes, shrieks. And I don’t know what got into my mind, I just stand in front of Buckbeak, try to calm him down.
“Buckbeak!” I said and stare into his eagle eyes. He stops and takes a step back.
“How you do that? You don’t even bow,” said Ron. Everyone stare at me.
 
“It’s killed me! It’s killed me!” said Malfoy.
“Calm yourself, you’re fine, just a scratch,” said Hagrid.
“Hagrid, he’s got to be taken to a hospital,” said Hermione.
“I’m a teacher. You all.. you all just.. class dismissed!” said Hagrid and carries Malfoy to hospital.
“How you do that Fanny?” Harry asked.

“I honestly don’t know,” I said really confused.
