Chapter 16: The Boggart

Ron, Harry, and I are currently heading to Defense Against the Dark Arts class.
I wonder where Hermione is...
She probably is already there.
Except, when we got there, nobody was in there besides us.
That's odd.....
Soon, everyone started piling into the room.
Still no sign of Hermione.
Where is she?
I hope she is okay....
This is not normal of her to be late.
My thoughts were cut off by a wardrobe shaking.
What the?!
"Intriguing, isn't it? Would anyone like to venture a guess as to what is inside?" Professor Lupin asked.
"That's a boggart, that is." Dean said.
"Very good Mr. Thomas. Now, can anybody tell me what a boggart looks like?"
"No one knows." Hermione said.
Wait.
Hermione?!
When did she get here?!
"When did she get here?" Ron asked.
You read my mind Ron..
Me and Harry just shrugged.
"Boggarts are shape-shifters. They take the shape of whatever a person fears the most. That's what makes them so-" Hermione continued, but was cut off.
"So terrifying, yes, yes, yes." Professor Lupin finished.
Then the wardrobe shook again.
"Luckily, a very single charm exsists to repel a boggart. Let's practice it now. Without wands, please. Repeat after me. Riddikulus!"
"Riddikulus!" We repeated.
"Very good. A little louder and very clear. Listen. Riddikulus!"
"Riddikulus!" We repeated louder.
"Very good. So much for the easy part. You see, the incantation alone is not enough. What really finishes a boggart is laughter. You need to force it to assume a shape you find truly amusing. Let me explain. Neville, would you join me, please? Come on, don't be shy. Come on." Professor Lupin said as he noticed Neville look back.
"Hello. Neville, what frightens you most of all?"
Neville muttered something.
"Sorry?"
"Professor Snape." Neville said louder.
With that everyone laughed, while Professor Lupin chuckled.
"Professor Snape. Yes, frightens all. And I believe you live with your Grandmother."
"Yes, but I don't want that boggart to turn into her, either." Neville said, panicked.
Everyone laughed again, while Professor Lupin chuckled again.
"No."
Then, the wardrobe shook again.
After that I zoned out for a couple minutes until I heard everyone laughing.
"Wonderful, Neville, wonderful! Incredible! Okay, to the back Neville. Everyone form a line." 
So everyone formed a line.
I was behind Parvarti.
"I want everyone to picture the thing they fear the very most and turn it into something funny." He said as he started to play music on his record player.
"Next! Ron!" 
Ron walked up.
"Concentrate. Face your fear. Be brave!" Professor Lupin said.
Then the boggart turned into a spider.
Of course....
Ron whimpered.
Oh typical Ron...
"Riddikulus!" Ron said.
Then the spider had roller skates on.
Everyone started laughing.
"Yes! You see? Very good, very good! Marvelous! Absolutely, very, very enjoyable! Parvarti! Next!"
Parvarti walked up.
"Show us what you see."
The boggart turned into a giant snake.
I guess she wouldn't have enjoyed going down into the Chamber of Secrets.
"Keep your nerve. Steady." Professor Lupin said.
"Riddikulus!" She said.
Then the snake turned into a jack in the box.
Everyone started laughing again.
"Next!" Professor Lupin said.
I walked up and took out my wand.
Then the boggart turned into two shadowy figures.
"I am so dissapointed with you!" Shadow #1 yelled.
"You are a disgrace!" Figure #2 yelled.
"I'm glad we got rid of you, you filthy, ugly, scum!"Figure #1 said.
"Riddikulus!" I said my voice a little shaky, before any one of them could say anything else.
Then it turned into two clowns, which threw pie at each other.
Everyone laughed again.
"And next! Step up, step up!"
Harry walked up.
"Wonderful! Wonderful!"
Then Professor Lupin noticed that Harry was up.
The boggart turned into a dementor.
All of a sudden Professor Lupin ran in front of Harry.
"Here!" He yelled.
Then the boggart turned into a moon.
Professor Lupin is afraid of the moon?
"Riddikulus!" He shouted.
Then it turned into a balloon with a hole in it, and went around the classroom and into the wardrobe.
"Right. Sorry about that. That's enough for today. Collect your books from the back of the class. That's the end of the lesson. Thank you! Sorry! Sorry, you can have too much of a good thing." Professor Lupin said.
Before I left the classroom, I noticed Harry hasn't moved.
