Harry was roaming the halls at night. It was the beginning of his eighth and final year, and with being an eighth year came new rules and regulations. Not having a curfew was one of the new rules and Harry was going to use that to his advantage.
Hogwarts was completely rebuilt after the war, but it felt different. It used to feel warm and welcoming, now it felt sad and lonely. He had never realized just how many emotions the building had, and yet he was sucked into them.
He left the castle through the entrance hall doors. He was originally planning on going to the quidditch field, but ended up going to the forbidden forest, which was now allowed to be entered. Harry was at the tree line when he hesitated about actually going in. The last time he'd been in there he'd died.
All thoughts about not entering was stopped from his mind when he heard a cry, it didn't sound fully human, but part of it was, he could tell. Harry bolted into the forest running in the direction he heard the sound from. He was making a lot of noise and he knew it as he crashed over branches and tripped over logs. He didn't care though all he could think about was that someone might need help.
Finally he made it to a dark part of the forest and quickly cast Lumos. He moved his wand around the area and he saw two bright blue eyes staring at him, they seemed to flicker with intelligence against his wand light. He moved a little closer and automatically the head that the eyes belonged to popped into view.
It was the head of a wolf, a white wolf. Harry's breath caught in his throat as he moved even closer to see that this wolf was bigger than most wolves by at least double. Harry still moved forwards slowly and the wolf snapped his large jaws at his face before twisting his head around and nudging a small pup with his snout.
The pup whined and squeezed herself closer to the wolf. The pup was a light brown colour except for her snout which was white. Harry moved a little closer and saw that her eyes looked really milky, and he realized she must be blind. Harry didn't understand why the wolves were staying here especially since he is a human and would be a natural risk to them.
Harry scrunched his eyebrows together when he moved his hand in front of the pup. The Wolf tried to bite him, but Harry snatched his hand away in time. Harry could tell that the wolf didn't want him near the pup, but he still wondered why they didn't run. That was until he saw a Bear trap had caught the large wolfs back paw. It looked as though he had tried to rip it away but the trap held firm.
The Bear trap was odd considering that he was in the wizarding world and this was a very muggle thing. Harry raised his wand and started to point it at the trap when the wolf growled and tried to lunge. The Wolf merely ended up ripping deeper into his leg and a large yelp echoed throughout the forest. The pup whined and yipped at the sound before squeezing in even closer to the large wolves side.
"Hey there, it's okay I'm not going to hurt you. Okay? I just need to magic that Bear trap off of your leg then you are okay to go," Harry whispered gently.
The Wolf growled slightly but otherwise nothing else happened when Harry raised his wand again. He watched the wolf gently apply pressure to the pups back with his head, and then Harry shot a spell at the trap. The spell was purple and immediately the Bear trap was off. The pup whined loudly before the male calmed her down with a gentle lick to her snout.
Harry suddenly heard a snap of a branch behind him and he whirled around to see two wolves growling and spitting at him. One was a light brown and the other was brown and white. Harry immediately realized that these must be the pups parents. He stepped back quickly and then the white wolf was jumping in front of him with the little pup in his mouth. It was easy to see that the white wolf was bigger than the other two.
