*Next day*
Me, Harry, Hermione, and Ron walk down to Hagrid's for caretaking of magical creatures class.
"Oh come on, we have to have this class with Slytherins?" I say.
"Unfortunately" Hermione says.
Hagrid steps outside and says "alright. I've got a treat for yeh today, a great lesson!"
We all follow Hagrid into the woods.
"Alright open your books and stay here for a moment" Hagrid says.
"How exactly do we do that?" Draco asks.
"Stroke it's spine, o' course" Hagrid says.
Everyone strokes the spine of their books and opens them.
"I think they're quite funny" Hermione says.
"Oh yeah. Terribly funny, really witty. God this place has gone to the dogs. Just wait til my father hears that Dumbledore's got this oaf teaching classes" Draco says.
"Shut up Malfoy" Harry says.
"Oohooh" Draco says, and walks over to the four of us. Draco stops and looks behind us all.
He looks scared and says "dementor! Dementor!" Everyone turns around and Draco starts laughing along with his friends.
I turn back around and glare at them. I take Harry's hand and walk farther away from Draco. I read the page of the book Hagrid had told us to open it to.
While I was reading, Hagrid comes back to the group with a hippogriff. Harry nudges my side, and I look up from the book.
"Everyone meet Buckbeak. Beautiful isn't he?" Hagrid says.
I go back to reading the rest of the page to try and learn more about hippogriffs. I wasn't listening to anything to be honest.
"Who would like to come and say hello?" Hagrid asks.
Because I had my nose stuck in the book, I stayed standing where I was. Everyone else backed away, except for me and Harry.
"Ah! Y/n and Harry!" Hagrid says, catching my attention from the book. "Now slowly walk forward and bow. If he bows back, you may pet him. If he doesn't, well, we'll get to that later."
Me and Harry slowly walk towards Buckbeak. I stop and stand where Hagrid told me to. I then bow slightly, making sure to keep eye contact with Buckbeak, Harry did the same thing.
At first, he doesn't bow back. "Step back a bit" Hagrid says.
Me and Harry slowly take a few steps back. Harry steps on a twig, causing Buckbeak to jump. I could see out of the corner of my eye, Hermione held Ron's hand for a second.
Buckbeak finally bows back to me and Harry. We walk forward and pet Buckbeak.
"Well done Harry and y/n! I think I might let you ride him now" Hagrid says.
"Wait what?!" Me and Harry ask.
Hagrid lifts Harry onto Buckbeak's back. "No, Hagrid!" I say as Hagrid lifts me onto Buckbeak's back as well.
"Don't pull on his feathers, he won't forgive yeh for that" Hagrid says. Buckbeak starts flying.
Oh god! I don't like this!
Even though I'm on the quidditch team and was used to flying, it wasn't the same as riding a Hippogriff.
My eyes were shut tightly, not wanting to see how high in the sky we were. I didn't even realize that my arms were wrapped around Harry because I was scared.
"It's alright y/n. Look how beautiful this view is" Harry says.
I slowly open my eyes and see that we were flying right above the black lake. "I guess this isn't that bad" I say, still looking around.
Harry let's go of Buckbeak and stretches his arms out, clearly trying to scare me, which he did.
"Harry James Potter!" I yell. He laughs and holds onto the hippogriff again. Buckbeak sticks his claw in the water, splashing me and Harry.
I hear Hagrid whistle, and Buckbeak flies down to the woods again. Hagrid helps me and Harry off of Buckbeak.
"How am I doin' on the first day?" Hagrid asks.
"Brilliant professor" Harry says.
"Really?" Hagrid asks. I nod my head in agreement.
"Oh please. Yeah, you're not dangerous at all, are you? You great ugly brute" Draco says, walking up to Buckbeak.
"Malfoy, no" Hagrid says, trying to warn Draco.
It was too late, Buckbeak stood on his hind legs and kicked Draco in the arm.
"Buckbeak!" Hagrid says, trying to get Buckbeak to calm down. He throws a dead ferret over to an empty space, and Buckbeak goes after it.
"It's killed meh, it's killed meh" Draco says, just a bit dramatically.
"It's fine, it's just a scratch" Hagrid says.
"Hagrid! He has to be taken to the hospital!" Hermione says.
"Well I'm the professor, I'll do it" Hagrid says while picking up Draco.
"You're gonna regret this" Draco says.
"Class dismissed" Hagrid says.
"You and your bloody chicken" Draco says.
