The Girl Who Remembers

Chapter 19

Dahlia's POV

"Turn to page 394" Snape ordered as he entered the room shutting the window covers,

The moon must've really taken it out of him this time

"Excuse me, sir. Where's Professor Lupin" Harry asked,

"That's not really your concern, is it Potter? Suffice it to say your Professor finds himself incapable of teaching at the present time. Turn to page 394" Snape explained, I flipped to page 394 and my eyes widened.

"Animagus' and Werewolves?" I called out,

"Sir, we just learned about red caps and hinky punks, we're not meant to start this for weeks" Hermione argued,

"Quiet. Now, which one of you can tell me the difference between an Animagus and a Werewolf? No one? Hm..." Snape asked, I scoffed and raised my hand, Snape raised an eyebrow and nodded,

"An Animagus is a witch or wizard who elects to turn into one animal. A Werewolf has no choice. With each full moon they no longer remember who they are. They'd kill their best friend. A Werewolf only responds to the call of it's own kind" I explained and Malfoy howled,

"Thank you, Mr. Malfoy" Snape said before Malfoy sent a paper bird to Harry, I looked over to see a picture of Harry getting zapped by lightning on his broomstick.

Gryffindor versus Hufflepuff and it had the worst weather for a game, Madam Hooch called the Captains aside before the game was continued, Harry and Cedric chased the Snitch up into the clouds above, Aurora passed me the Quaffle and I flew towards the hoops before lightning struck my broom snapping it in half and I was going in for a crash landing,

"D!" Valeria exclaimed as I threw her the Quaffle, I rolled across the grass and groaned laying on my back, Cedric came down closely followed by the Snitch, I got to my feet and was going to grab another broom before I noticed Harry falling at an alarming rate to the ground, my eyes widened

"Aresto Momentum!" Dumbledore jinxed stopping Harry a couple metres off the ground, I sighed in relief and ran over to him, Ron and I carried him to the Hospital Wing.

"D!" Aurora yelled as her, Valeria and the Weasley twins ran into the Hospital wing, tackling me with a hug,

"Are you okay?!" Valeria asked as she checked over me, I pulled her hands away from me

"I'm fine" I smiled, she pulled me into another hug regardless,

"Only Dahlia Black could be struck by lightning and be fine" George laughed,

"I think the only thing that's not okay is her broomstick...Harry's too" Fred commented revealing the two broken Nimbus 2000s, my eyes widened in horror,

"My broom!" I exclaimed as I picked up the pieces,

"He looks a bit peaky, doesn't he?" Ron asked, making us all turned to him,

"Peaky?" Fred repeated,

"What do you expect? He fell over 100 feet" George retorted,

"Lets walk you off the tower and see what you look like" I commented,

"Probably a right sight better than he normally does" Harry stated as he awoke making us all chuckle.

"How are you feeling?" Hermione asked,

"Oh, brilliant" He answered, I raised an eyebrow

"Looks like Dahlia's not the only one who's a mental" Aurora chuckled,

"You gave us a right good scare" Valeria stated,

"What happened?" Harry asked,

"Well, you fell off your broom" Ron answered

"Really? I meant the match, who won?" He asked, I rolled my eyes chuckling,

"It's been postponed. Cedric refused to take the win like this" I informed,

"Are you sure you're okay? You seem out of it" Hermione questioned, he nodded

"There's something else you should know too. When you fell, your broom sort of blew into the Whomping Willow and well..." Ron trailed off before showing Harry's destroyed broom.

"Hey D!" I heard Fred yell, I turned around to see him and George coming over to me,

"Hello boys" I smiled,

"Fred, look" George whispered cutting him off and pointing to some footprints that were 'magically' forming, I chuckled as Fred and George grabbed hold of Harry, who was underneath his invisibility cloak and dragged him to somewhere shelter, I followed and Harry pulled the cloak off him

"What are you doing?!" Harry snapped, they shushed hum and handed him the Map making my eyes widen, "What's this rubbish?" He asked,

"What's this rubbish? he says. It's the secret to our success" George explained,

"We've decided that your needs are greater than ours, Dahlia if you will" Fred added,

"I solemnly swear that I'm not up to no good" I said as my wand touched the parchment.

"Messers, Moony, Wormtail, Padfoot and Prongs are proud to present the Maraurders Map" Harry read out, I smiled and nodded,

"We owe them so much" Fred said, Harry opened it

"Hang on. This is Hogwarts. And that's-"

"Dumbledore, in his study pacing" George commented cutting Harry off,

"Does that a lot" Fred added,

"So this map shows everyone" He asked, we nodded

"Everyone" I repeated, "Oh and when you're done with it, tap it and say 'Mischief managed' otherwise anyone can read it" I reminded before Harry grabbed my hand and lead me to the passage for Hogsmeade.
