The Potter Twins and the Philosopher's Stone

Just Dangerous Dragon Things

**Emilia's POV**
"Shit," I whispered, though loud enough for everyone to hear and look in the direction of where Draco Malfoy was standing outside the window.

As soon as he saw all of us looking, he ran towards the castle.

"Reckon, who was that?" Hagrid said, completely focused on Norbert still.

"Malfoy," Harry said. "He's undoubtably going to tell one of the professors about Norbert."

"No! 'E can't! Norbert'll be taken away! Or killed!" Hagrid freaked out, taking Norbert in his arms.

"Then we'll send him to Charlie," I said, eyes slightly glazed over, thinking of a plan. I looked over at Ron. "Is there any way we could send a letter and have Charlie come and pick up Norbert?"

"Yeah, I'll write him one now. Hagrid, you don't by chance have an owl we could send to Romania, do you?" Ron said, looking around for a piece of parchment and quill.

"Sadly not, Ron, I'm sorry," Hagrid said, trying to think.

"You can use Hedwig," Harry offered.

"Alright," Ron said, grabbing a ripped piece of parchment, a quill, and some ink from a nearly dried up bottle. As he wrote, Hermione and I tried finding a cage to put Norbert in.

"B-but what if he don't like Romania? What if ter other dragons make fun er him?" Hagrid nearly sobbed. I stood beside Hagrid. Even with him sitting down and my standing up he was about twice my height.

"It's okay, Hagrid. Charlie will take good care of Norbert, right Ron?" I motioned over to Ron who had just finished writing the letter. Ron walked over to Norbert who was now stretching his wings on the table. Ron reaches his hand out to pet him, but was bitten.

"Ow!" He quickly pulled his hand away and scowled at the dragon.

"Oi, he didn't mean it, Ron. 'E's just er baby after all," Hagrid defended Norbert. I looked at Ron's bite mark and winced.

"You might want to go to the hospital wing, Ron. That doesn't look good," I said. Ron protested at first, but as his finger grew more swollen, he stopped objecting.

After we'd gotten Norbert situated in his cage, and Hagrid said his goodbyes, Harry, Hermione, Ron, and I headed back towards the castle.

We couldn't all fit under the invisibility cloak while we had Norbert in his cage, so we decided to just sneak around. It'd be better to all get in trouble together than one alone, or at least that's what I thought we'd all silently agreed upon.

We walked Ron to the hospital wing, trying our best to come up with an excuse as to why he needs help because of a bite this late at night. We came up with nothing, so Ron went in followed by Hermione, who was there for her quick brain for coming up with an excuse.

As Harry and I were sneaking up to the tallest tower in the castle, we saw McGonagall hauling Draco off to detention for raving about how Harry, Emilia, Hermione, and Ron were in Hagrid's hut with a dragon. What a story, who could ever believe that?

We made it up the stairs just in time to see Charlie and some of his friends flying on broomsticks outside an open window.

"Thank you so much," Harry spoke for the both of us. We handed them the cage and they flew off into the night.

As we were walking down, Harry suddenly looked pale.

"Emi, you have the invisibility cloak, right?"

"No, I thought you had it..." My heart began to race.

"We have to go back!" Harry said just a tad too loud, for when we were about to start running, we heard the meow of Filtch's cat.

"Shit..."
