Your POV:
"Harry!?" I call out for about the 100th time. Ron, Hermione and I had just finished Dinner in the great hall and no one had seen Harry anywhere, so we decided to go and look for him. Hermione went alone and Ron came with me.
Ron pokes his head in the transfiguration room and I look at him hopefully. "Nothing" he says,
I sigh.
We continue walking and We look inside the DADA classroom. Bingo. I see Harry sat at a desk with Lockhart signing something. "He's signing fan mail" Ron whispers to me , and we both laugh a little.
Ron Knocks on the door and they both look up.
"Ah Miss L/n, Mr Weasley, what a delight. I was just having a conversation with young Harry here, he's helping me reply to my fan mail. Charming boy he is" Lockhart says
Harry looks at us with a look of Help me.
"Professor?" I ask
"Yes Miss L/n" Lockhart says
"Do you mind if Harry comes with us. It's urgent we really need his help" I say
"Can you two not do it?" He Asks "you're both very smart, surely you don't need Harry to help you"
"Please Professor" Ron says "he has been here all dinner"
Lockhart sighs and looks at Harry.
"Alright, off you go then"
Harry stands up and we walk out of the classroom quickly.
Once we are out of the Classroom, Ron bursts out laughing.
"I cannot believe you were helping Lockhart answer his fan mail"
Harry pushes him lightly. "Oh shut it. I didn't have a choice he practically dragged me into his bloody classroom"
"Ok, we gotta go find Hermione, she's looking for you too" I say as Ron and I walk through different corridors with Harry walking behind us.
Harry suddenly stops walking. "D'ya hear that?" He Asks
"Hear what?" Ron Asks looking at me in case I hear anything and I just shrug.
"That" Harry says walking to the walls and pressing his ear against it.
"Ummm" I say looking around, hoping he's not completely mental as Ron and I can't hear anything. Hermione runs out from a corridor. Harry starts running in the opposite direction and Hermione gives us a confused look. Ron shakes his head. "He's hearing things"
We chase him through the halls and we all come to a sudden stop. A bunch of spiders are crawling along the floor.
"I don't like spiders" Ron says shakily
"Neither do I" I reply
Ron grabs hold of my hand , I'm shocked at first but then I look over at him, I see him looking scared so I tighten my grip around his hand .
"Guys" we hear Hermione say
We look at her , to see she's looking at the wall. I gasp.
"The Chamber Of secrets has been opened, Enemies of the Heir beware... it's written in Blood" Hermione reads off the wall.
"Oh no" Harry says looking at something and walking closer to the wall. Hermione gasps. I look up and then I see it. Mrs Norris is hanging motionless from one of the torches.
"It's Filch's cat. It's Mrs Norris"
At that moment, the entire school comes out from both corridors and crowds around the message on the wall. They look at each other and murmur. It takes me a second to put two and two together. "Wait! You don't think we did this do you?" I ask aloud
The kids go silent. A third year Hufflepuff steps up. "Well you were here before everyone else"
"Yeah and it's not exactly new news that you four like trouble" adds a sixth year Ravenclaw.
Madame Pomfrey Gasps and I see Tia in the crowd glaring at me. I shake my head at her but she turns away and whispers something to Ash and they both start giggling. I see Colin trying to snap a picture before Seamus Finnegan pushes him out of the way. Draco Malfoy merely sneers. "Enemies of the heir beware?" He scoffs. He turns to look at Hermione and I. "You'll be next Mudbloods"
Ron lets go of my hand, which I only just realised he was still holding, and storms up in Malfoy's direction. "Was that a threat?!" He Asks raising his fist.
Filch grabs his wrist from behind and he spins around. "What's going on here?" He snarls. He lets go of Ron's wrist ,Ron walks over to me, and walks over to Harry. "Potter...what are you and..." his eyes wander to the cat and his eyes triple in size. "Mrs Norris. You've murdered my cat!"
"No" Harry says frantically shaking his head. "No"
"I'll kill you! I'll kill you!" Filch says grabbing Harry by the collar.
"Argus?" Says a calming voice from non other than Dumbledore. "Argus I..." Dumbledore stops in his tracks when he sees the message along with McGonagall, Snape, Lockhart and the other Professors. "Everyone will proceed to their dormitories immediately" We all turn around and rush to get to our common room. "Everyone except you four" Dumbledore says as he points at us.
Filch goes back to crying about his cat and continues muttering "I'll kill you , I'll kill you" over and over. Dumbledore walks up to him and puts his hand on his shoulder. "She's not dead Argus, just petrified"
"Ah yes. So unlucky I wasn't there I know the exact counter curse that could've spared her" Lockhart says nodding his head vigorously.
The other Professors merely stare at him in return until Dumbledore finally speaks up. "Right then... how she has been petrified I cannot say"
"Ask him" Filch says jerking his head towards Harry. "It's him that's done it. You saw what he wrote on the wall"
"It's not true Sir I swear" Harry protests
"He's right Professor we've been with him the whole time" I say quickly
"He never touched Mrs Norris" Hermione adds
"Rubbish" Filch scowls
"If I might Headmaster?" Snape, Who has been unusually quite up until now, says to Dumbledore. "Perhaps Potter and his friends were simply in the wrong place at the wrong time" I look at Ron , Hermione and Harry in disbelief, Snape of all people would be the first to kick us out of the school. "However.. the circumstances are suspicious. I for one don't recall seeing Potter at dinner"
"I believe that was my doing Severus" Lockhart says from beside Mrs Norris "You See , Harry was helping me answer my fan mail, he left just a while ago"
"That's why we went looking for him Professor. We'd just found him when he'd said.."
I nudge Hermione slightly hoping no one noticed. "Yes Miss Granger?" Snape Asks
"When I said i wasn't Hungry" Harry says quickly. Snape turns his head to look at him.
"We were heading back to the common room when we found Mrs Norris" I add
Snape raises an eyebrow obviously unconvinced. "We always finish each other's thoughts" Ron lies
"I guess" Hermione begins
"It's just" Harry seconds
"Become" I add
"A habit" Ron finishes
"Innocent until Proven guilty Severus" Dumbledore says
"My cat... has been petrified. I wanna see some punishment!" Filch says
"We will be able to cure her Argus. As I understand it Professor Sprout has a very healthy grow of Mandrake. When matured a potion will be made and we will revive Mrs Norris" Filch sulks a bit to hear that we won't be getting punished. "Until then I strongly recommend caution to all" I gulp and Dumbledore nods at us. "You four may go"
The four of us turn around and begin walking to the common room. I breathe a sigh of relief, that was something else.
