The Forbidden Kids || Harry Potter x An Original Storyline

Part Six: Isn't This Illegal?

We spent a good hour or so talking about my powers and also what type of witch I am, It turns out i'm a half blood, yet no-one knows who in my family had passed down the magic, for all we know, it could date back centuries.

"We'd best get going!" Hagrid exclaimed, looking at the ticking clock on my living room wall before standing up and stretching. 

I turned my head in confusion and cocked it to the side ever so slightly. I followed his gaze at the clock which now read '12:00pm'. I too, stood up and stretched out before heading to the living room door frame, Hagrid followed me. 

"Where is it that we're going, exactly?" I asked out of curiosity as I watched Hagrid pick up my letter from Hogwarts and head to the front door, almost as if he had a certain time to be somewhere by and he was running late. He looked at me in disbelief and shook his head. 

"Unbelievable" He joked as he opened my front door and stepped out, he looked at me as if he expected me to follow him there and then. I stared at him with a smirk on my face. 

"So let's put it this way" I began, " A stranger bursts into my house, shouts some gibberish and somehow my dangerous weapon flies through the air, lands in his hand, he starts a fire with an UMBRELLA and starts talking to me about how i'm a witch and what type exactly. NOW you expect me to follow you to no one in the bloody-hell knows where?" I questioned with detail whilst crossing my arms and waiting (impatiently) for an answer. 

Hagrid laughed and turned his back on me before replying with a simple 
"Suit Yourself." Before beginning to walk away, I quickly run to my doorway and try and redeem myself. 

"NOT without any clothes" I quickly forced out. I went to turn back to my stairs to go collect my stuff before a hand met my shoulder and I was spun round to face Hagrid once more. 

"You won't need to pack anything, you'll get everything as soon as we get to the place we need to be." he reassured, "Now, we must REALLY get going" he huffed before putting a guiding arm around my shoulders and leading me out of my own home, I looked back as my front door shut and locked itself, on its own. 

~~~~~         ~~~~~
A building started to loom in the distance of the walk, and as we approached closer, I realised it was...

"A PUB?!" I exclaimed as I shot a look up at Hagrid's tall figure, "You had to get to a PUB by a certain time?!"

Hagrid looked down at me and smiled. 
"Don't worry, its not your ordinary pub" he replied as he patted my head before opening the pub door and allowing me inside first. 

The door shut behind me as I looked around, feeling uncomfortable and slightly intimidated by all of the adults that swarmed all over the place. It was until I heard Hagrid's voice that I realised, I really needed to catch up. After-all, I didn't know where I was going. 

Being small, I managed to slip through the gaps between adults without causing too much suspicion to occur, because it was totally legal  for an 11 year-old to be in a pub...NOT.
Looking around, I eventually found Hagrid and caught up, before realising he was talking to a man who was quite slim. He had what looked like some sort of, cloth wrapped around his head, it was extremely neat and tidy. I politely (and awkwardly) smiled up at him and gave a small wave. Hagrid put his arm on my back, said his farewells to the man and lead me elsewhere. I looked back and saw that the same man was watching us as we walked away. 

When walking to what looked like the back of the pub, I decided to speak up and start conversation. 

"Well, this is awkward with all these adults in here" I began, "oh and also," I came to a halt from walking as Hagrid turned around, looking almost a little bit stressed, 

"Isn't this illegal?" I threw out there as I pointed behind myself, signalling the room. "You know, an eleven year old kid in a pub, TOTALLY  normal" I taunted. Hagrid huffed and started walking again, but this time, faster. 

"H-Hey! Wait Up!" I called out in a small panic, before going into a slight sprint to catch up, once again.

We both entered through a black door and just as we did, Hagrid looked back to make sure we weren't followed and when he was satisfied, he shut the door behind him. We were now in a small room with what looked like...kegs of alcohol and a brick wall, SO exciting, If you ask me.

"This is it." Hagrid finally spoke as he looked up and down at the brick wall in front of us. 

"A brick wall?" I questioned sarcastically "Wow, love that."

"No, silly. This isn't just any wall." He spoke triumphantly. "This is what gets us to our next step." He looked round and smiled at me. 

As he turned back to the wall and raised his umbrella tip, I crossed my arms and leant against a barrel, just waiting to see what happened next. 

He put in what looked like a secret pattern and before I could ask anything, the floor started to shudder and the wall began to half itself in front of my eyes. 

"Bloody Hell" I whispered, as slowly I got to my feet once more.
