Book of Hogwarts

Ron's View

When the lights came back on, Harry was fed with a piece of bread in his mouth by the man. Harry stirred awake and also looked surprised to see the pastry.

"Curry buns work wonders in odd sitautions, don't they," the man said with a smirk.

"Shut up and just let him be," the boy snapped.

"Mate, if you're feeding my friend, at least give us your names," Ron said.

"My apologies. I am Sebastian Michaelis," he said, bowing.

"I'm Ciel Phamtonhive. He's my employee," the boy said.

Ron grimaced. What if that bun was poisoned? From experiences, Ron knew the higher class will do underhanded things. The servant caught Ron's scowl.

"No worries. It has proven to help those in distressing states. Normally I would ask before giving him the food, but seeing how urgent the matter was, I took the liberty to give it to him," Sebastian explained.

Ron breathed. At least that was one less thing to worry about yet Ron wasn't ready to give up on idea that Ciel meant ill.

"What was that cloaked figure?" Hermione asked.

"That was a dementor. I used a spell to drive it away. You should be very careful around them," a man said as he got in the car. "I'm Remus Lupin. I've filled out an application to be the Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher for this year."

"What a coincidence. I too file out an application for the position," Sebastian remarked.

Lupin raised an eyebrow towards Sebastian. Ron averted his attention to Harry, who was nibbling the bun. Ron realized he wasn't hungry anymore and offered some of the Funtom candy to Ciel. He ate it with nonchalantly but Ron knew a sweet tooth when saw one. Ron then noticed the eyepatch covering Ciel's left eye. He must've gotten into some wizard duel without any proper training. Hermione then whacked Ron's head.

"Ow! What was that for?" Ron yelled.

"It's rude to stare at his eyepatch!" she hissed.

"It's alright. A window shattered in my home and a shard pierced through it," Ciel calmly explained.

Ron nodded. Once they reached Hogwarts, Hagrid bellowed orders for the first years and new students. Ciel parted whispering something to Sebastian before joining a group. Ron saw Fred and George shoving each other while Ginny looked scared being a first year student. Ron was looking forward to another year of pranks, mayhem, and mysteries.
