[HP] Guardian

Hogwarts at night is always full of quiet beauty. Harry does not know how many such nights he could not sleep peacefully. It seems that since he nodded and agreed to Dumbledore's plan, he seemed to have returned to the place where he was the only one left. Human Hogwarts.

"Don't think I won't deduct your points." Snape couldn't help sighing when he found him on the observatory.He stepped forward and hugged the thinly clad boy in his arms, silence spread between the two.

"I...I know...this will worry you very much" Snape wanted to say something to relieve their indifference during this time, but Harry broke away...

Snape frowned, enduring the pain of being bitten on the side of his neck, he stroked the boy's messy hair, trying to appease his uneasiness.Harry finally let go, he kissed his teeth marks lightly, and said after a long time, "You don't understand, I don't want to leave you..."

"Just for a while, I'll be back" Snape sighed, in fact he didn't agree with Dumbledore's idea, but he would rather go by himself than let the boy take risks.

"Forget it, let's go back." Harry didn't intend to have any more pointless discussions, he pushed Snape away and walked down the stairs.

In the days that followed, he became more and more silent, and Snape didn't know how to persuade him any more. This topic became a taboo for them, but everything was still proceeding according to Dumbledore's plan.

In early June, Snape gave Nagini the potion, and after struggling for several hours, Nagini finally died.Voldemort felt this, but because of his blood loss, he could only rely on his young life for supplies in a dark corner. He didn't even have the energy to check his soul tablet, so he could only urge Snape to go to Dumbledore. Lido started and sent Peter and Bella to assist.

Peter and the others couldn't get into the school, so they could only wander outside temporarily. In mid-June, they finally slipped into the screaming booth.Greyback went hunting, and the others scouted around, leaving only Peter and Bella in the screaming booth.Bella rolled her eyelids in boredom. Peter went to the school to inquire about the news, but was discovered by the defense. There were a lot of Aurors around here, so they were always trapped here, waiting for Snape's signal.

Bella was in a daze all the time, and when she realized something was wrong, she was already frozen in place, watching the boy who looked like a devil appear in front of her, she still remembered the death of her husband and the torture that was added to her , her heart was beating violently, waiting for the nightmare to come.

"Master" Peter's eyes were empty and blank, and he cowered and retreated to the side with his head lowered.Harry gave him a cold look, took a beaker from under his cloak, and walked into Bella.

The cup was filled with a small half of the bright red liquid. Harry shook the liquid evenly, pinched Bella's jaw, and poured the bright red liquid down for her.Bella resisted subconsciously, but unfortunately everything was in vain, she could only watch herself swallow the unknown liquid.Soon she only felt uncomfortable as if her whole body was on fire, the pain eroded her mind, and she fainted to the ground not long after.

Bella twitched all over her body, her eyes were opened and only the whites of her eyes were left. There were fiery red and strange lines on her body, and the lines gradually disappeared after a quarter of an hour.

"Peter" Harry turned his head to Peter, and Peter came forward tremblingly, "Remember what I told you"

"Yes, master" Peter bowed his body very low like a house elf.After Harry nodded and erased Bella's memory, he put on the invisibility cloak again and left the screaming booth.

When the Death Eaters came back one after another, Bella rubbed her aching neck from sleep, and wondered why she fell asleep lying on the table.

"Has something been here?" Fenrir Greyback could smell the strange smell in the air as soon as he came in, but the smell was very weak, he asked with some uncertainty.

"What?" Bella flipped her hair in disgust, and said mockingly, "A ghost? Not even a ghost will come here."

Greyback didn't want to confront her, he gritted his teeth and retreated outside silently.

At the end of June, Snape finally delivered the news the Death Eaters wanted to hear.

"The last potion tonight, you can come over after eleven o'clock, I will give you the signal" Snape said coldly, turned around and walked out of the secret passage again.

At night, Dumbledore took a small cup of potion that Snape put on the table, touched another candy and stuffed it into his mouth, "It's so bitter"

He wrinkled his bitter face and smiled at the two of them, "Walk with me in school."

After Dumbledore finished speaking, he led the two of them out of the principal's office. It was just after curfew, and some unruly animals were still sneaking towards the dormitory. Snape glanced at the silently walking By Harry's side.

"There are always students like this, they don't follow the rules very much, and they seem extra active." Dumbledore smiled as if remembering something, and fell silent again.

"This is a responsibility. We are guarding Hogwarts, and she is also guarding us. After tonight, you must guard her well." They stopped and stopped on the observatory.

"Don't say it like you're giving your last words," Snape said sarcastically.

"Ah... almost the same." Dumbledore shrugged, he took a step back, the effect of the medicine had already started to work, he took a weak breath, "Okay"

Snape pulled out his wand and cast a green signal towards the sky, Dumbledore lowered his hand, and the Elder Wand fell to the ground.Harry donned the Invisibility Cloak and blended into the darkness.

There was some noise outside, and this corner of the observatory seemed a little quiet.

"Ah... let me see, Dumbledore lost his wand." Bella walked in proudly, followed by five Death Eaters.

"Lestrange, Greyback, Chemia, Segolowe, Ernston, and Peter. I haven't seen you for a long time." Dumbledore smiled as he leaned on the railing, he was a little unsteady.

"Snape still has a way, a little tooth-healthy medicine, changing the effect a little bit, you have no defense at all." Greyback bared his teeth and mocked, "You sweet old lunatic, it's not right to die on this." not wronged"

"Yes, yes, it is indeed not wronged. Severus should hate it to the point of helping me make the dental medicine, right? Then let's do it." Dumbledore looked at it with a smile, and Snape looked straight at him with a blank expression on his face. After a while, there was a sound on the stairs.

"Quickly," Bella called.

"Avada Kedavra" Snape lightly shook his wand, and the green light pierced his eyes.

"Creaver" time stood still at this moment, the golden lion came through the air, he pounced on Dumbledore, in a short moment, Dumbledore broke through the railing and fell on his back downstairs.

"Let's go" The Death Eaters didn't realize anything strange, the commotion outside was getting bigger and bigger, Snape led them away from the scene quickly.

Harry lifted the Invisibility Cloak, picked up the fallen Elder Wand, and Apparated to where Dumbledore had dropped it.

"You..." Dumbledore was still conscious, and he lifted his eyelids feebly, looking a little shocked at Harry's dark red eyes.

"Don't worry, it's still me." Harry rubbed his eyelids and smiled strangely, "But you can see, I'm devouring his strength, and I don't know what will happen in the end."

"Dumbledore, if I don't survive, give him a reason to live, I know you can" Harry sighed, putting the Elder Wand into Dumbledore's coat pocket, "and... find the gatekeeper People in Nurmengard, don't let yourself regret it any longer."

Dumbledore tried hard to say something, but the effect of the medicine eroded his brain, a tear slipped from the corner of his eye, and he slowly closed his eyes.

"Creaver" Harry got up and looked back at the chaos coming from the castle, "Go, guard Hogwarts, I order you as the heir"

With a roar, Creaver spread out a pair of giant wings, and the gilded light flitted across the night sky.Harry closed his eyes to sense Snape's position, and Apparated in pursuit of the Whomping Willow.

Snape noticed that the people behind him suddenly fell silent, he raised his wand and turned around vigilantly, a familiar figure loomed in the darkness.

"You..." Bella and Peter stood stiffly in place, and the time and space technique froze the time in this area.

"Promise me to live," Harry said in a low voice with his head bowed.

"You too" Snape didn't come closer, he suppressed his sadness and replied to him.

Harry broke the spell and looked up after they left. He blinked his dark red eyes and turned away quickly.

Greyback and a few Death Eaters in the back met up with the professor and some students who rushed over. Greyback licked his canine teeth and was very excited about the food delivered to his door.But the lion's roar that followed made his hair stand on end. It was the level suppression of creatures. The griffin is the king of the sky and the land, and there are few opponents in adulthood.

The wind came through the air, Greyback rolled on the ground according to the instinct of the beast, but it was too late, Criver's foreleg hit his shoulder, and the left arm was directly torn apart, Greyback let out a miserable cry The cry made the scene quite shocking.No one knows where the lion came from, but he looks huge, more majestic than the Gryffindor symbol.

Greyback fled in embarrassment, but it was just a needless struggle. Creaver leaned over and passed, and the vicious werewolf was separated from his home in an instant.

"Criver, don't let anyone go!" Harry apparated behind Criver, and the golden lion roared through the night sky, warning all intruders that the majesty of the king should not be trampled.

It was just a killing game, Creaver's long wings flew across the sky, screams were endless, leaving only blood on the ground for a moment.Harry looked up at the Dark Mark in the sky, he raised his wand, a golden light pierced the night sky, the true power of Hogwarts dispelled the dense fog, and the light shone like day, but no one was excited by the brilliance at this moment , because the light brought an unacceptable reality, Dumbledore's still warm body lay quietly under the tower, some people screamed inconceivably, some cried in embarrassment.

Harry approached silently, Fawkes flew out of the castle, it hovered over the tower, and sighed and cried as if calling for its master, it circled around for a long time, and finally landed on Harry's shoulder , tilted his head to look at Harry, and then yelled at Creaver who had shrunk and was squatting at Harry's feet.

"Ugly thing" Creaver muttered in a low voice, Fox glanced at him haughtily, as if he didn't intend to talk to him.

"What happened?" Mag squeezed through the crowd, she asked with a trembling voice.Hagrid's inflected cry was very bleak.

Harry didn't answer her question, but someone in the crowd stammered, "I...I saw...Professor Snape, following the wanted Death Eaters."

"What?" Hagrid asked blankly, as if he hadn't heard clearly.

"Snape isn't here." Flitwick looked around, but he didn't see Head Slytherin.

"Maybe it's just chasing..." Hagrid murmured, but he himself found it inconceivable that no one had returned after such a long time.

"He was the one with those two people, and the woman attacked me. The professor yelled not to waste time, I thought I would die." The speaker was a fourth-year Hufflepuff student. He was afraid that everyone would not believe him, so he showed himself The back of the head was hit with blood.

"Harry" Hermione walked around to him from the crowd, she didn't need to listen to the hot discussion of the crowd, she had already guessed everything from Harry's silent attitude, "Are you okay?"

"Yes," Harry replied softly.Hermione pulled him away from Dumbledore, and the gathered core members of the D·A team surrounded him.The two only people who knew their feelings were a little worried about his emotions.

"Is anyone hurt?" Harry asked calmly, and everyone shook their heads one after another.

"Professor McGonagall is looking for you. Sirius is here, in the medical wing." Ron squeezed through the crowd. He was called away by McGonagall just now to maintain order. The crowd under the tower gradually dispersed. He finally got out and came over. Looking for Harry.

"Understood." He knew what happened tonight, and Mag would definitely want to ask. He waved to everyone and walked towards the medical wing alone.

As soon as "Harry" entered the hospital wing, Sirius rushed over and gave him a hug. "Are you okay?"

As soon as he received the news from the Order of the Phoenix, he came running here wearing casual clothes. Dumbledore's death and Snape's whereabouts became a mystery, so he didn't dare to ask.

"I'm fine." Harry patted his hand, turned his head to look at the members of the Order of the Phoenix, "Is anyone hurt?"

"No... just fought against the Death Eaters." Standing behind Lupine, Tonks looked curiously at the lion lying at Harry's feet. Fox was standing on the lion's back. "The lion rushed out."

"Guardian Beast of Gryffindor, Creaver" Creaver grunted in a low voice as a greeting.

"What the hell happened...?" McGonagall opened the door and walked in. She stared at Fox and asked Harry, "Why is Dumbledore's Phoenix with you?"

"It follows Creaver." Harry shook his head, he didn't want to say more about this matter, "he is the Guardian Beast of Gryffindor"

"I thought you knew..." McGonagall frowned. They were unwilling to believe that Snape would betray, but the reality told her that the Death Eaters were probably brought in by her old colleagues, and even Dumbledore's death , is also related to it.

"Can I speak to you alone, Professor," Harry began.

"Okay, then... come here." Mag nodded and led him outside.Fox landed on his shoulder again, and Criver followed behind him slowly.They went all the way up into the principal's room, and McGonagall looked up at the portrait, but unexpectedly there was no portrait of Dumbledore.

"How could that be?" McGonagall yelled out of composure, but she seemed to realize something, and quickly turned her head to look at Harry.

Harry nodded, confirming her thoughts.As the acting headmaster, McGonagall has been empowered by Hogwarts. If outsiders come over, there will be portraits on the wall, but what they see is real.

"Dumbledore's plan, the only thing that can't be solved is this, he can't hide it from the acting headmaster," Harry explained simply.

"He...he's still alive" Mag's excited hands were shaking.

"Yes," replied Harry, nodding, "but the secret is out of your hands, we have to pretend he's dead"

"Is there anything I can do to help?" McGonagall said with a sob.

"I will leave to complete his plan. Creaver is the guardian beast of Gryffindor. If there is any accident, as the dean, you can order him. You can also use Hogwarts' defense." Harry paused After a while, he continued, "If Severus came back earlier than me, I know he might attract hostility, you..."

"I will try my best to help him..." Mag said hastily.

"No... just pretend you don't know. It's our responsibility to protect the students." Harry sighed.

Mag opened her mouth as if she wanted to say something, but she nodded in agreement.

"Hogwarts is entrusted to you, so we can rest assured." Harry bowed to her respectfully and thanked her.The fair and strict female headmistress in the history of Hogwarts deserves such courtesy.

"I understand, let's go. I will guard Hogwarts." McGonagall nodded and patted her favorite student on the shoulder.

Dumbledore didn't intend to tell McGonagall from the beginning, because he knew McGonagall's soft heart, and he was afraid that she would reveal her truth when facing Snape, but Harry knew that McGonagall could do it, so in the end it was He came to tell Meg.Of course, he also had selfish intentions, he hoped that McGonagall would keep the little animals under control and not cause trouble for Snape.

Three days later, at Dumbledore's funeral, the white-bearded headmaster joked happily that he could attend his own funeral in person, and when he really died, he wouldn't be inexperienced...

Knowing that he was in a bad mood, Sirius blocked all the questions for him, and the Minister of Magic Scrimgeour turned green with anger.Hagrid hugged Dumbledore's body and wept silently. He put Dumbledore in the purple long coat in front of the stage, and people admired his appearance and said their final farewell.

"Go, Fawkes" Harry patted the phoenix on his shoulder, and Fawkes soared into the air with melodious cries, hovering in the air, suddenly it bent down and went towards Dumbledore, and the fiery red flame instantly ignited , In an instant, Dumbledore and Fox disappeared without a trace, leaving only a huge closed tombstone with no words on the white marble.
