Third Person POV
"He sent us this," Hermione said, holding out the letter.
Harry took it. The parchment was damp, and enormous teardrops had smudged the ink so badly in places that it was very difficult to read.

Dear (Y/N) and Hermione,
We lost.
I'm allowed to bring him back to Hogwarts. Execution date to be fixed.
Beaky has enjoyed London.
I won't forget all the help you gave us.
Hagrid

"They can't do this," said Harry. "They can't. Buckbeak isn't dangerous."
"Malfoy's dad's frightened the Committee into it," said (Y/N), sadly.
Hermione, wiped her eyes saying, "You know what he's like. They're a bunch of doddery old fools, and they were scared. There'll be an appeal, though, there always is. Only I can't see any hope.. Nothing will have changed."
"Yeah, it will," said Ron fiercely. "You won't have to do all the work this time. I'll help."
"Oh, Ron!"
Hermione flung her arms around Ron's neck and broke down completely. Ron, looking quite terrified, patted her very awkwardly on the top of the head. Finally, Hermione drew away.
"Ron, I'm really, really sorry about Scabbers..." she sobbed.
"Oh -- well -- he was old," said Ron, looking thoroughly relieved that she had let go of him. "And he was a bit useless. You never know, Mum and Dad might get me an owl now."
Ron looked over Hermione's shoulder to see (Y/N) grinning with two thumbs up.
"Er -- sorry, (Y/N) for.." he said nothing after that.
"Do you really want me to finish that sentence for you?" (Y/N) filled in for him. He shook his head no. "Thank goodness! I didn't know how much longer I can be stubborn for!"
Harry was now glad (Y/N) would talk to them. He definitely did miss her and she was never there to insult Malfoy, which was always such a joy for him. He wondered what her reaction would be to attacking Malfoy the way they did, back in Hogsmeade. Besides laughing, she might've joined in. Perhaps with a brick or something, Harry thought.
The safety measures imposed on the students since Black's second break-in made it impossible for Harry, (Y/N), Ron, and Hermione to go and visit Hagrid in the evenings. Their only chance of talking to him was during Care of Magical Creatures lessons.
He seemed numb with shock at the verdict.
"S'all my fault. Got all tongue-tied. They was all sittin' there in black robes an' I kep' droppin' me notes and forgettin' all them dates yeh two looked up fer me." He pointed at Hermione and (Y/N). "An' then Lucius Malfoy stood up an' said his bit, and the Committee jus' did exac'ly what he told 'em.."
