[HP] This Evil

Chapter 7 Forbidden Forest

Friday was originally Catherine's favorite day of the week, because besides being able to rest for the next two days, she also didn't have her most troublesome astronomy class today, but this Friday Catherine received a McGonagall Note from the professor "Your detention begins tonight at 11:1pm, find Mr. Filch in the foyer." (Note [-])

This is not the only unfortunate thing. Professor Binns and Professor McGonagall seemed to have agreed together, and suddenly held a quiz. Everyone was very nervous, and Professor Binns asked whoever suggested it. During the exam, Slytherin and Gryffindor students sit across the house to reduce the chance of students plagiarizing each other.

Harry and Draco were tablemates, and they spent at least five minutes staring at each other, and another five minutes fighting for their territory at the table.Hermione was so guarded against her test paper that Pansy, who was sitting to her left, read half of it.

Blaise established a brief friendship with Gryffindor in this class. He and Dean Thomas worked very happily. One was in charge of looking out and the other was in charge of flipping books under the table. They both got E in the end, but just walked out of magic History classroom and their friendship came to an abrupt end.

The most pitiful thing is Ron, and Catherine is on his left. Halfway through the exam, he began to secretly glance at the Slytherin girl's paper more frequently, and Catherine found out that she didn't block the test paper, but deliberately wrote the answer more clearly. A little clearer, but Ron ends up with a T.Because "Name: Catherine Cynthia Ferrara" was clearly written on the head of his paper—he accidentally copied Catherine's name on his own paper, and the latter had discovered this problem a long time ago, so he did it on purpose Write the answer more clearly, Ron didn't know this from the beginning to the end, and he even thought: This Slytherin is not bad, and Professor Binns recognized his handwriting at a glance, and then wrote a mercilessly T.And Catherine, as the "innocent victim" of being plagiarized, was not blamed and got an O as always.

The transfiguration in the afternoon was not so easy. It took Catherine a long time to turn the beetle running around into a pretty button, barely getting an E.

At eleven o'clock in the evening, Catherine and Draco arrived in the foyer on time, where Mr. Filch and his cat, Mrs. Norris, were waiting for them, along with Harry, Hermione and Ron, of course.

"Come with me," said Filch, walking ahead with a kerosene lamp in his hand. "You little brats, always disobedient. It's too cheap for you to just do labor."

Catherine originally thought that the so-called labor was just cleaning classrooms that no one was using, or cleaning trophies, but who would have thought that the labor that Filch was talking about was actually going to the Forbidden Forest with Hagrid!Harry and the others were a little happy because Hagrid was their good friend.But Catherine and Draco couldn't be happy at all, the Forbidden Forest was too dangerous, and neither Hagrid nor the dog named Fang that Hagrid brought with him seemed so reliable.But in order not to be expelled, she resigned herself to entering the Forbidden Forest.Hagrid divides them into two groups and looks for a wounded unicorn.

"Are you worried that Hagrid will abandon us?" Catherine asked Draco in a low voice after parting from Hermione and the others. Harry followed them with Fangs and looked a little lonely.When they were first grouped, Draco insisted on bringing Harry Potter to their group.

"If it was just the two of us, he would definitely leave us in the Forbidden Forest." Draco said affirmatively, and then he turned to look at Harry behind him, "Hey, Potter, are you scared? behind the girl?"

Harry shot Draco a quick look, and quickened his pace to keep up with them, "Malfoy, you better not be afraid."

"Of course I'm not," Draco said, obviously he was lying, his voice trembling even more than before.The further they walked into the Forbidden Forest, the quieter the surrounding area became. At first they could hear some insects chirping, but now they couldn't hear anything. The surroundings were quiet, only the sound of their footsteps.

"Hush...look." After walking for an unknown amount of time, Harry suddenly stopped. Catherine looked in the direction he pointed, and there was a unicorn lying there with a large amount of blood around it. The beautiful creature is dead.They gasped, and Harry was about to pull out his wand to send out a blue signal flame to the sky, "What is that!" Catherine said suddenly, her throat seemed to be blocked, and it was very difficult to say these few words Character.Beside the dead unicorn was a hooded thing—they couldn't be sure if it was a human being. He was lying on the unicorn's neck, licking the silvery white blood.

"Ahhhhhhh..." Draco let out a series of screams, dragged Catherine beside him and ran away, Catherine pushed Harry who was standing stiffly, motioned him to run too, and then followed Draco desperately Running backwards, Yaya ran faster than them, and now he couldn't see the shadow.They didn't stop until they couldn't run any longer, and yet—Harry didn't follow.

"Scarhead won't die, will he?" Draco said, he looked around, Fang was still missing, the kerosene lamp was still in his hand, the wind in the woods was getting louder, and the moon was completely covered by dark clouds Stopped, the leaves "rustled".Catherine took out her wand and was about to send a distress signal for Harry, but at this moment a red flame burst out in the sky, which should have been sent by Harry from the direction. "Oh, Scarhead probably isn't dead, that's a shame," Draco said, but he wasn't visibly relieved. "Come on, let's go out and wait for them."

They walked cautiously towards the edge of the Forbidden Forest, but the process was not smooth.Fangya disappeared, the kerosene lamp went out after a few minutes, the temperature of the surrounding environment kept dropping, the moon still disappeared, only a few stars dotted the night sky.The darkness made Catherine lose her sense of direction, and she followed Draco closely, for fear that she would get separated from him if she didn't pay attention.

Draco is not much better, although he can barely find the way back, but the scene just now frightened him, and now he is cold all over, wanting to write a letter to Mr. What happened, but he had to desperately keep calm to find his way back.

The moon came out a little, which made Catherine and Draco feel a lot better, but soon it was even worse.There was a strange "rustling" sound in the Forbidden Forest, as if something was crawling on the ground. They looked through the moonlight and found at least twenty spiders the size of Gower's fist on the floor of the road ahead.

"Ahhhh..." Draco screamed again, and continued to drag Catherine to escape, but after running a few steps, they found spiders of the same size on the road ahead, and there were even more of them.

"All petrified, all petrified." Catherine threw spells at the spiders indiscriminately, but most of them missed because of nervousness, and Draco calmed down a little. He took out his wand and sent out several red distress calls to the sky Sparks, "If they don't come to save us, they're doomed!" On the other side, Hagrid, Hermione, and Ron had just found Harry, and before they had time to cheer for Harry's escape, they saw a series of monsters jumping out of the sky. A rush of sparks. "It's Malfoy and Ferrara," said Harry. "They were supposed to be running back."

"I really don't want to go back and save them, they just left you and ran away." Ron said, he, Harry and Hermione followed Hagrid, and were running in small steps towards the place where the sparks came from, Fang He was back, too, and was right behind them.

"Ron!" Hermione exclaimed unhappily, "Even if we don't have a good relationship with Slytherin, we can't do nothing."

"But they didn't want to save them just now." Ron touched his nose and said.

"Actually, Ferrara gave me a hand just now, but the scar on my head hurt so much after I saw Voldemort, so I didn't react." Harry explained, and then touched his scar again.

"Does it still hurt, Harry?" Hermione asked, and then she said, "Don't mention that name."

"It doesn't hurt anymore, it didn't hurt when he ran away," said Harry, still cold.

"Well, maybe Ferrara's okay, she's a girl after all, so just run away, and she showed me her paper for the History of Magic exam today, I mean, she's not bad sometimes Right," said Ron, obviously still unaware of the fact that Catherine had discovered his misspelled name long ago.

"You won't be able to copy during the final exam, because we will use the anti-cheating quill then." Hermione gave Ron an annoyed look, "We have to go faster, or it may be too late to save them ’” Hermione said, picking up her pace again.

"All petrification" didn't play a big role. Instead, the number of spiders became more and more due to the attack, and Catherine and Draco were almost surrounded by them. "They're definitely going to let us die here!" Draco said in a trembling voice.Catherine looked at the spiders one after another and felt her scalp tingle. She realized that she had made a serious mistake. She should not have attacked these spiders just now, because these spiders had no intention of harming them at first, but after being attacked, they became conscious. Got to get closer to her and Draco. "Fire." The spiders were so close that Catherine had to cast another spell.

"No, Catherine! This will set the Forbidden Forest on fire, and we will be burned to death." Draco stopped loudly, but it was a step too late.Fortunately, the fire released by Catherine was not that big, and there was still ice and snow on the ground of the Forbidden Forest that hadn't melted, so the fire went out in a while, and some spiders were even repelled.Those spiders should be very afraid of fire, and they didn't come forward for a while. When they were about to attack again, Hagrid arrived.

"Go away, little ones, they're Hogwarts students." Hagrid yelled at the spiders, "Wow, woof..." Yaya became more courageous because of his master's presence, and the spiders immediately dispersed.

"Are you two okay?" Hagrid asked breathlessly, and Harry and the others also felt short of breath from running all the way.

"I'll tell my dad what happened today!" Draco said. "You must have been stalling on the way here."

Hagrid was so angry that his beard was bristling again.

"Let's go, Draco, we should go back." Catherine tugged on Draco's arm, she was very tired and didn't want to watch them quarrel anymore.

At two o'clock in the morning, the group of them finally dragged their exhausted bodies back to the Hogwarts castle.Harry, Ron, and Hermione walked up, toward Gryffindor Tower, while Draco and Catherine headed toward the dungeons, neither of them speaking to the other.
