There Was A Girl

A Night to Remember

A Night to Remember

Harry sat in a chair inside the library completely lost in thought.

'If Quirrel really did jinx my broom, then what those he want from me?' Harry asked himself.

"Harry you alright?" Maya asked carrying a bunch of books with Neville and Draco behind her carrying even more books.

"Just asking myself. 'What does Quirrel want?".

"Well we might have an idea mate." Neville said placing a book infront of Harry.

"I got this from the restricted section when everyone was sick." Neville whispered looking very proud of himself.

"This is Nicholas Flamel , Hagrid told us about him. He created the Philosopher's stone." Neville pointed out.

"That's it he's after the Philosopher's stone.... tonight." Harry said.

"So what do we do?" Draco asked.

"We fight." Harry said recieving three nods in return.

Harry, Neville, Draco, and Maya were sitting outside after finishing their final exam for the year. The day was brutally hot, so there were quite a few students lounging about. Harry had just filled in the other three on the thought he'd 'just' had.

"What are the odds that Hagrid would run into someone with a Dragon's Egg? How much do you want to bet it was You Know Who in disguise trying to get information on that three headed dog?"

The twins, tantalized by the threat of a painful death for anyone trying to breach the right hand side of the third floor corridor, had run into Fluffy soon after Halloween. Since then five other sets of students had ventured, and confirmed the dog's existence.

Fred looked up, "Looks like someone's getting an owl from the Ministry. Uh, must be Dumbledore, that's his office window."

And they knew it would be tonight.

Harry used the flute from Hagrid to keep Fluffy asleep as Draco and Neville pulled up the trap door. 

"Looks dark below. What now?" Draco asked.

"Jump." Harry said simply.

As the four jumped off they landed on what felt like a pile of plant material.

"Oh no... oh no...." Neville said panicing.

"What is it Nev?" Harry asked.

"Devil's snare." Neville said still shakingly.

"How do we get out of this?" Maya asked.

"Everyone cast a lumos spell." Neville commanded.

As the four took out their wands Nville mustered the courage within him.

"Ok on my go..."

"LUMOS!!!" All four called out.

Their wands emitted a bright shining light that could have blinded them.

As the four made their way out of that obstacle they made their way to the next.

"Winged keys and a broom," Neville rolled his eyes, sarcasm dripping from his tone. "Lucky we've got the youngest seeker in a century with us or whatever would we do?" Harry snorted, leapt on the broom.

It took some getting used to riding an old battered broom compared to his new and more improved broom but he still manage to capture the key.

The next stage was a giant chess board.

"Guys I'm not good in chess. I can't do this." Maya said sadly

"We can." The boys said in unison. "There's a couple of free spaces on the black side. What do you wanna be?" Harry asked
