Chapter 11: The Forbidden Forest
Harry let out a deep sigh as he walks through the dark woods of the forbidden forest with Draco Malfoy, who is constantly complaining about the cold and the dark and Hagrid, who is leading them. The cold winter wind causes him to shiver as he pulls his coat tighter around his body for warmth as he gains appreciation of the permanent warming charm on it.
Part of him wonders how the hell he ended up with the task of accompanying the massive man, though another part of him knows exactly how it happened. The black haired boy laments how his day has gone, to think that his morning had started pretty well too… yet one encounter with blonde peacock and the day went down the drain.
The Hufflepuff first year’s morning had started with unaccustomed silence due to him being the only male first year remaining at the dorm, the rest of the dorm members had gone back to their families the day before. The end of the Gregorian calendar of 1991 is approaching and the weather at the school located at Scottish Highland certainly reflected it with the biting chill in the air.
He walks toward the window and wipes the dew on it with his right hand while his other hand is still clutching his blanket draped over his back. As expected, due to the snow last night, the view beyond the glass shows white as far as his eyes can see.
For a moment he considers going back to sleep but finally decides against it. Instead, he starts his day with his usual routine before heading down to the common room. As expected, Hermione is already there and waiting for him while reading a book.
After greetings were exchanged, Harry still having a little problem with facing the girl due the accidental peek on the brunette’s girl part a few nights ago, they head for breakfast… and that’s when trouble rears its ugly head.
It starts with Harry enjoying his breakfast with Hermione next to him while reading the holiday-themed news in the latest issue of the Daily Prophet when they hear a voice across their table, “Potter.” Harry looks up from his breakfast and immediately suppresses a groan as he sees the so-called pureblood-prince that is Draco Malfoy along with this two “bodyguards”, “What do you want, Malfoy?”
The blonde throws a glance in Hermione’s direction who has also looks at him out of curiosity. Draco sneers at the brunette before he turns back to Harry, “Seems like Potter family sure has gone to the deep end into the dirty scale, not just one mudblood in the family but you just had to pick up another. If I had my say, neither of you should have been here.”
Harry turns to Hermione who returns it with equal look of confusion and shrugs before turning back to Malfoy, “What exactly is your point, Malfoy? I don’t know about you… but I personally think that if you’re the prime example of pureblood then I’d choose Hermione 10 times over.”
Draco scowls as he leans in further, “How dare you insinuate that this… Mudblood is superior to a pureblood. That claim cannot go unchallenged, Potter… I propose a wizards duel, 10 o’clock tonight at the astronomy tower. You can bring a second…” the blonde grins a moment as he continues, “…not that it would help you.”
Hermione rolls her eyes as she interjects, “You DO know that’s outside curfew, right? Why should Harry go out of his way to humor your petty challenge and potentially get into trouble with the school? What are you? Stupid?” Harry chuckles as he hears his best friend belittle the Malfoy heir. When the brunette puts it that way, it just drives home how laughable the blonde’s so-called proposal was.
Draco certainly didn’t find it as humorous as the Hufflepuffs in front of him do and it shows as he scowls deeper. His plan had been pretty simple and he had come up with it the moment he saw that the Hufflepuffs table had been empty except for his two targets; He thought this would be the perfect opportunity to get his revenge over the Longbottom incident where Potter humiliated him. He hadn’t been able to get his revenge earlier because the older Slytherins had warned him about the “Hufflepuff Loyalty” thing. Now that the other “duffers” were away, he should have been any easy target’
His plan had consisted of going over to the Hufflepuff table, making a few disparaging words about the mudblood, he had learned that insulting the mudblood seemed to work better to raise Potter’s temper than insulting him, and challenge him for a duel at night. He would tip Filch to find Potter, and hopefully Granger as well, out of bed after curfew and they would get in trouble while he will be in his bed and can’t really get into trouble since he will be going back home the next morning. It was the perfect plan in his mind… However, not only hadn’t potter risen to the bait but the mudblood dare to make a joke out of it.
That had been a step too far for him as his wounded pride takes control as he pulls his wand and before anyone can stop him, casts the first spell that comes to his mind, “Flippendo!” Hermione, not expecting that Draco would dare pull his wand in the middle of Great Hall, feels as if someone punched her on the chest and thrown off backward from her chair before hitting the floor painfully. Suddenly, there is only silence as everyone present has their eyes glued on the fallen brunette before Harry breaks into action.
He stands up from his seat and his fork falls with a clatter to the plate as he goes for his friend, “Hermione!” Soon, he is cradling the girl in his hands but she is obviously out cold due to the impact against the floor. He hears laughing behind him and turns to see Draco laughing at Hermione’s prone figure before suddenly all the “puff” can see is red.
With a roar of a wild beast, Harry jumps over the Hufflepuff table and tackles the blonde Slytherin to the floor before pummeling him with his fist as he continually says, “How dare you?!” over and over.
Its several minutes later that Harry feels another pair of hands trying to pull him off of Draco but he is undaunted as he fights the pull, all for the sake of exacting retribution. He is denied from continuing his abuse when he feels himself being forcefully lifted into the air by an invisible force followed by the sound of the Hogwarts Deputy Headmistress, “That is enough, Mr. Potter!! 50 Points from Hufflepuff and detention with me tonight for assaulting another student!”
As the Gryffindor head of house is holding him back with levitation spell, Harry sees Professor Flitwick is checking on Hermione’s condition before speaking out loud, “It is okay, she is unconscious but there is no major injury other than minor concussion. I’ll take her to the hospital ward.”
Harry is clearly thinking of following along but his situation prevents him from acting it. He is once again by the same person holding him airborne, “You will stay right here, Mr. Potter! We are not finished yet!”
After she says it, she turns toward Draco who is currently sporting bruises and bloody nose and lips from Harry’s punches, “20 Points from Slytherin for drawing your wand outside of class and 50 points for assaulting another student! You will also serve detention with me tonight, Mr. Malfoy. Now pick yourself up and see Madam Pompfrey at the Hospital ward!”
It was several hours later that Harry was let go by McGonnagal with ringing ears after her private lecture in her office regarding resorting to violence as well as the reminder of his detention. He visits Hermione at the hospital ward and rewarded with similar answer from the injured girl, “Look… I appreciate you trying to take revenge on my behalf but violence at school is and will always be severe rule breaking action, Harry. I wasn’t even badly injured…”
The brunette gives him a small smile as she continues, “…I dare to think that I might be injured less than what you gave Malfoy, and I’m the unconscious one.”
He was finally chased out of the hospital ward by Madam Pompfrey who insists that Hermione needs her rest. Since then, Harry had busied himself at the library until the time for his detention with McGonnagal. Though he isn’t quite surprised to see Malfoy, who is sporting some obvious bruises from his beating, in the woman’s office he isn’t thrilled at the idea of having to share detention with the blonde.
Before the woman manages to start assigning their detention task, a knock comes from the door. McGonnagal’s call of “Come in” sees Hagrid entering through the doorway with a memo in his hand, “I’m sorry to disturb you, Professor but Headmaster Dumbledore asked me to give you this memo.”
The woman knits her eyebrow slightly as she accepts the memo and reads it privately before turning to the two first years in her office, “It seems that you two are going to have detention with Mr. Hagrid here. Well, off you go.”
Harry snaps out of his reminiscence as Draco’s moaning of his situation finally penetrated his mind. Attempting to distract himself from giving the blonde a second round of beating, he asks the groundkeeper instead, “Hagrid… What are we doing here, exactly? And what is that crossbow for?”
The giant man turns to Harry as he answers, “Oh, I haven’t told ye? We will be patrolling this forest for tonight, there has been several animals found dead lately, primarily unicorn foals. This crossbow is just for safety, in case we meet the said creature who dares to do such a despicablething as killing a unicorn.”
Suddenly, Hagrid stops and hushes the other two with him, “Silence, you two. I think I hear something… walk quitely okay?” The man readies his crossbow as he lowers his stance like a hunter sneaking up on a prey… not that Harry personally thinks it will help with his size but he isn’t going to tell him that. Suddenly, there is a long beastly cry resounding through the woods and Hagrid immediately breaks into a run, “That’s a unicorn’s cry! Let’s go!”
Harry and Draco immediately try to follow but Hagrid is proof that size does matter when it comes to running as he easily outruns them and soon disappears from their sight. Left alone with only Draco for company, Harry decides to try calling for Hagrid but no answer comes which means that the man is beyond the distance his voice can reach. Behind him, Draco immediately complains, “That buffon! How dare he leave me behind in this godforsaken forest?! And- What was that?”
Harry turns to Draco who is pointing at a direction, “What is what?” The blonde speaks with a stutter, “There was a dark shadow there for a moment… It disappeared the moment I saw it.” Harry is just going to discard the blonde’s statement as nonsense when suddenly he feels a piercing pain from his scar. He rubs the lightning bolt shaped scar on his forehead to relieve the pain but feels no blood from it, ‘Weird… it’s never done that before’
Another beastly cry pierces the silence around the two first years, though this time the sound seems much closer than before. Before Harry manages to react, his blonde companion lets out a scream as he turns around and runs away into the darkness in panic. He looks at the direction where Draco has gone and sighs, ‘Great… there is no way I can find him in this dark place… hopefully he won’t get himself killed….’
Harry is considering his options to approach the direction of the animal cry from before or staying put in his location and hoping that Hagrid will find him. Neither seems to be a good idea but those are the only ones he can come up with at the moment. Finally, Harry draws his wand from his pocket before slowly approaching the direction of the sound. If he’s lucky then Hagrid will already be there and they can exit this forest together.
Careful so as to not make too much noise just in case whoever or whatever he is approaching is a hostile entity, Harry is soon able to make out the sound of someone eating… …least something close to it. Soon, he sees a figure in a dark cloak whom seems to be kneeling on the ground scooping with his hand what looks to be a clear and sticky liquid from the ground and putting it in his mouth. He notices that his scar feels like it is on fire with how much it hurts but thankfully not enough to incapacitate him.
The first year Hufflepuff hides behind a tree as he tries to get a clearer view of the figure but the fog is getting in his way. He is however, able to make out what the figure is eating… a corpse of a white colored, horse-like creature is in front of the figure with its stomach sliced open. The clear glue-like substance the figure is eating is apparently the creature’s blood.
Harry is prepared to step back and hopefully escape the notice of the cloaked person but unfortunately, he steps onto an exposed root and loses his balance. The moment he hits the ground, the cloaked figure turns to his direction and snarls threateningly as he seems to reach for his wand. An arrow suddenly shoots pass Harry’s shoulder and hits the tree behind the figure which causes the person to pause in his track. Two more arrows shoot at the figure forces the person to escape as he turns around and runs away into the forest.
Harry lets out a relieved sigh as he turns around, “Just in time Ha….” He nearly finishes Hagrid’s name when he notices that the person who saved him does not resemble the massive man at all. In fact, he doesn’t look human-like to begin with having a horse body from the torso down while the upper half is that of a man, Harry has been saved by a centaur.
The half-man half-beast creature slings his bow back to its shoulder before speaking, “You are not supposed to be here. Get out of the forest, it is not safe.” Harry nods at the creature before replying, “I have a companion who is missing in the forest and…“
This time the creature points to the figure draped on its back, “You mean this one? He ran into a tree and knocked himself out.” The Hufflepuff inspects the unconscious figure and indeed, the person is one Draco Malfoy, treated as if he is a sack of potatoes.
The creature turns his body and motions Harry to follow before walking at the pace that the first year barely manages to follow. Both of them emerge at the edge of the forest and sees Hagrid already waiting there as he greets them, “Firenze my friend, it seems that you have found my missing charges. Thank you.”
The centaur, now identified as Firenze, replies, “Why did you bring these two here, Hagrid? The forest at night is no place for them. You know well how creatures in the forest thinks of humans, do not temp them.” Hagrid moves to pick up Draco’s unconscious body from the centaur’s back before replying, “You’re overreacting, Firenze. They ended up safe and sound, didn’t they?”
Firenze narrows his eyes as he speaks again, “ONLY because I found them first, Hagrid. Two more unicorn foals died tonight, all the creatures are on high alert, anyone who enters the forest unprepared are more likely to die by them, than any other.”
Hagrid seems to be thinking something before finally replying, “You’re right. Very well, I shall speak to Professor Dumbledore about your concern.”
Hagrid turns to Harry, with Draco carried in one hand, “Well, why don’t we go back to the castle, Harry? I trust you can get to your common room by yourself while I give my report to Professor Dumbledore and deposit Mr. Malfoy here in the hospital wing.” Harry nods his head silently as he follows the massive man back to the castle. He notices that his scar is no longer hurting as they leave the forest.

A/N: I’ve been asked by several people by mail why I make a point to respond to every single review. I’ll answer this here: I do it out of appreciation to those who actually bothers to read and comment about my story, it is small and kind of egoistical but they gives me peace of mind that someone ACTUALLY reading it and not just browsing and discarding my stories. As a writer, there is nothing please me more than knowing that my story reaches and gives pleasure to my readers. If they ACTUALLY have WELL-MEANING critism about it, it is ALL THE BETTER.
On the brighter side of things. I've just noticed that this story has broken pass 100k views and... well... I'm currently at the loss of words. I don't know if most of them are just opening the first chapter the close it or do they actually read it till the last but it is still unexpected to me. I admit that at first I thought I read it as 10k (which I assure you is already WAY more than I thought it would be... I was expecting 100 views at most....). Therefore, once again... to my readers: THANK YOU VERY MUCH. Trust me, you guys don't know how much this means to me.
Gandalfs-Beard: Not yet… but I can promise you it IS coming soon. I want to get the important bits out of the way first :)
Ollivander: Yeah… it did occur to me as I was typing the chapter… but unfortunately my limited English vocabulary kinda got in the way…. The reason I didn’t change it was because I deem it as minor part of the story anyway so shouldn’t be that much of a problem as far as I can tell. :)
ajenni: Thank you, hope you enjoy this chapter too.
Brandon: Thank you, hope you enjoy this chapter too
Nicholas Vanni: I’m glad you like this story so far. I thank you for the offer but Ollivander had volunteered to be my BETA and he hasn’t disappointed me so far. If anything comes up that prevents him from continuing BETA-ing my chapters I’ll consider your offer once again.
