Filch led the students to Hagrid's Hut with his cat, Mrs. Norris. Filch had always creeped (y/n) out, so she tried to stay as far away from him as possible.
"A pity they let the old punishments die. There was a time detention would find you hanging by your thumbs in the dungeons. God, I miss the screaming." Filch reminisced. (y/n) heard Ron gulp next to her. "You'll be serving detention with Hagrid tonight. He's got a little job to do inside the Forbidden Forest."
As they approached the hut, Hagrid slung his crossbow over his shoulder. He seemed upset but was trying to hold it together.
"A sorry lot this is, Hagrid." Filch said. Hagrid suddenly burst into tears as Filch looked upon him in disgust. "Oh, good God, man, you're not still on about that bloody dragon are you?"
Hagrid sniffed and sighed sadly.
"Norberts gone. Dumbledore sent 'im off ter Romania ter live in a colony." Hagrid explained.
"Well that's good isn't it? He'll be with his own kind." Hermione encouraged.
"Yeah, but what if he don't like Romania? What if the other dragons are mean ter 'im? He's only a baby after all." Hagrid retorted.
"For God's sake, pull yourself together man. You're going into the forest after all. Got to have your wits about you." Filch stated.
"The forest? I thought that was just a joke! We can't go in there. Students aren't allowed! And...there are werewolves!" Malfoy argued.
"Theres more than werewolves in those trees, lad. You can be sure of that." Filch grinned evilly at the students. "Nighty-night."
Him and Mrs. Norris left the students with Hagrid, who was wiping the tears off of his face. (y/n) glanced over at Malfoy who looked scared out of his mind.
"Right. Let's go." Hagrid ordered, heading into the forest, Fang close beside him.
The others slowly followed behind them. They began to walk for a while, the forest growing ever darker as they held out their lanterns to see the path in front of them. Hagrid suddenly stopped at a tree, seeing a dead animal lying on the ground. He bent down and dipped his fingers in the puddle lying beside it, rubbing the liquid together on his hands.
"What's that Hagrid?" Harry asked curiously.
"What we're here for. See that?" he asked holding up his fingers. "That's unicorn blood, that is. I found one dead a few weeks ago. Now this one's been injured bad by somethin' so it's our job ter find the poor beast. Ron, Hermione, you'll come with me."
"O-okay." Ron agreed nervously.
"Harry, Malfoy, you'll go with (y/n)." Harry nodded in understanding.
"Well then I get Fang!" Malfoy demanded.
"Fine. Just so yeh know, he's a bloody coward." Hagrid stated. Fang whined as he walked over to (y/n). She gave him a soft pat on the head. "Right so if yeh get into any trouble, just shoot up red sparks with yer wands. We'll come and find yeh."
The two groups split off, Harry and Fang leading the way.
"You wait until my father hears about this. This is servant's stuff." Malfoy complained, using his lamp to light up as much of the path as he could.
"I think you're just scared." (y/n) teased.
"Scared?" Malfoy scoffed. "If anyone it's you that's scared, Adler. I heard you chattering your teeth back there in fear."
