Normal P.O.V

Right now we are at Hagrid's Hut.
Ron and Hermione were fighting about Scabbers until the most strange thing happened.
One of the vases on the table suddenly broke.
That was odd.
Hermione picked up something what looked to be a pebble.
Then I heard Harry wince in pain.
I guess the same thing hit him.
I wonder if this was any of Fred and George's pranks.
But when I looked out the window, no one was out there.
No one except Dumbledore along with the Minister of Magic and the one that is going to kill Buckbeak.
"Crap." I muttered.
Harry turned around to see what I was looking at.
"Hagrid!" Harry said.
Hagrid came over to see what we were looking at.
"Oh crikey." Hagrid muttered.
"It's late. It's nearly dark. You shouldn't be here. If someone sees you outside this time of night, you'll be in trouble. Big trouble. Particularly you two." He said said pointing to me and Harry.
Then someone knocked on the door.
"I'll be with you in a moment!" Hagrid yelled as he put a blanket over one of the creatures.
"Quick. Quick!" Hagrid whispered, shooing us away.
I was walking along with Hermione and Ron.
Hermione opened the door and stuck her head out.
When she walked out, all of us just followed her on the way.
She stopped behind a group of huge pumpkins and so did we.
We stood there for a few seconds, then I heard a twig snap.
I turned to see if anybody was there, and so did Hermione.
"What?" Harry asked.
"I thought I just saw- never mind." She said.
"Let's go!" Ron said.
We ran off quickly, but then stopped at the top of the hill.
We just stood there watching the end of Buckbeak until 'Chop!'.
At that I sort of got a little teary.
I heard Hermione crying.
So I looked over and saw Hermione hugging Ron.
I know this isn't the best time thinking this, but Hermione and Ron would be the cutest couple ever.
They just won't admit that they like each other.
Then I heard Ron wince.
"He bit me. Scabbers." Ron said, and ran off  chasing Scabbers.
"Ron. Ron!" Hermione said.
We all started Chasing Ron, who was chasing Scabbers.
I actually was the one close behind him.
After a minute of running, he stopped finally with Scabbers in his hands.
But, Harry and Hermione stopped way back.
I noticed why they stopped back there.
We were under the Whomping Willow.
But there was also something that caught my attention.
A big black dog.
Not just any dog.
The one I saw outside in the yard at my house during the summer.
"Ron! Emily! Run!" I heard Harry yell.
"Harry, Hermione, run! It's the Grim!" Ron yelled, pointing to the black dog.
They turned and saw the dog.
But instead of the dog attacking Harry, it ran after Ron.
Before Ron would have been dragged off, Ron grabbed my leg, causing me to fall on my back.
Now I was being dragged off too.
It actually hurt alot.
It hurt much worse when we got to the stairs.
My head would hit each step of the stairs.
I kept hissing 'ow' every time my head hit each stair.
Finally we got to an empty, almost destroyed looking room.
I got up and helped Ron up on a chair.
"Sorry." He said.
All I did was nod.
Then Ron started whimpering while pointing his finger at me.
"What? What is it?" I asked.
"He's behind you!" He squeaked.
"He? He who?" I asked Ron.
But my question was already answered as I turned around.
It was.....
