CHAPTER TWELVE
THE PATRONUS
Harry knew that Hermione had meant well, but that didn't stop
him from being angry with her. He had been the owner of the best
broom in the world for a few short hours, and now, because of her
interference, he didn't know whether he would ever see it again. He
was positive that there was nothing wrong with the Firebolt now,
but what sort of state would it be in once it had been subjected
to all sorts of anti-jinx tests?
Ron was furious with Hermione too. As far as he was concerned,
the stripping-down of a brand- new Firebolt was nothing less than
criminal damage. Hermione, who remained convinced that she had
acted for the best, started avoiding the common room. Harry and
Ron supposed she had taken refuge in the library and didn't try
to persuade her to come back. All in all, they were glad when the
rest of the school returned shortly after New Year, and Gryffindor
Tower became crowded and noisy again. Wood sought Harry out on the
night before term started.
"Had a good Christmas?" he said, and then, without waiting for
an answer, he sat down, lowered his voice, and said, "I've been,
doing some thinking over Christmas, Harry. After last match, you
know. If the dementors come to the next one... I mean... we can't
afford you to -- well --"
Wood broke off, looking awkward.
"I'm working on it," said Harry quickly. "Professor Lupin said
he'd train me to ward off the dementors. We should be starting this
week. He said he'd have time after Christmas."
"Ah," said Wood, his expression clearing. "Well, in that case
-- I really didn't want to lose you as Seeker, Harry. And have you
ordered a new broom yet?"
"No," said Harry.
"What! You'd better get a move on, you know -- you can't ride
that Shooting Star against Ravenclaw!"
"He got a Firebolt for Christmas," said Ron.
"A Firebolt? No! Seriously? A -- a real Firebolt?"
"Don't get excited, Oliver," said Harry gloomily. "I haven't
got it anymore. It was confiscated." And he explained all about
how the Firebolt was now being checked for jinxes.
"Jinxed? How could it be jinxed?"
"Sirius Black" Harry said wearily. "He's supposed to be after
me. So McGonagall reckons he might have sent it."
Waving aside the information that a famous murderer was after his
Seeker, Wood said, "But Black couldn't have bought a Firebolt! He's
on the run! The whole country's on the lookout for him! How could
he just walk into Quality Quidditch Supplies and buy a broomstick?"
"I know," said Harry, "but McGonagall still wants to strip it
down --"
Wood went pale.
"I'll go and talk to her, Harry," he promised. "I'll make her
see reason.... A Firebolt... a real Firebolt, on our team... She
wants Gryffindor to win as much as we do.... I'll make her see
sense. A Firebolt..."
Classes started again the next day. The last thing anyone felt
like doing was spending two hours on the grounds on a raw January
morning, but Hagrid had provided a bonfire full of salamanders for
their enjoyment, and they spent an unusually good lesson collecting
dry wood and leaves to keep the fire blazing while the flame-loving
lizards scampered up and down the crumbling, white-hot logs. The
first Divination lesson of the new term was much less fun; Professor
Trelawney was now teaching them palmistry, and she lost no time in
informing Harry that he had the shortest life line she had ever seen.
It was Defense Against the Dark Arts that Harry was keen to get
to; after his conversation with Wood, he wanted to get started on
his anti-dementor lessons as soon as possible.
"Ah yes," said Lupin, when Harry reminded him of his promise
at the end of class. "Let me see... how about eight o'clock on
Thursday evening? The History of Magic classroom should be large
enough.... I'll have to think carefully about how we're going
to do this.... We can't bring a real dementor into the castle to
practice on...."
"Still looks ill, doesn't he?" said Ron as they walked down
the corridor, heading to dinner. "What d'you reckon's the matter
with him?"
There was a loud and impatient "tuh" from behind them. It was
Hermione, who had been sitting at the feet of a suit of armor,
repacking her bag, which was so full of books it wouldn't close.
"And what are you tutting at us for?" said Ron irritably.
"Nothing," said Hermione in a lofty voice, heaving her bag back
over her shoulder.
"Yes, you were," said Ron. "I said I wonder what's wrong with
Lupin, and you --"
"Well, isn't it obvious?" said Hermione, with a look of maddening
superiority.
"If you don't want to tell us, don't," snapped Ron.
"Fine," said Hermione haughtily, and she marched off.
"She doesn't know," said Ron, staring resentfully after
Hermione. "She's just trying to get us to talk to her again."
At eight o'clock on Thursday evening, Harry left Gryffindor
Tower for the History of Magic classroom. It was dark and empty
when he arrived, but he lit the lamps with his wand and had waited
only five minutes when Professor Lupin turned up, carrying a large
packing case, which he heaved onto Professor Binn's desk.
"What's that?" said Harry.
"Another boggart," said Lupin, stripping off his cloak. "I've
been combing the castle ever since Tuesday, and very luckily,
I found this one lurking inside Mr. Filch's filing cabinet. It's
the nearest we'll get to a real dementor. The boggart will turn
into a dementor when he sees you, so we'll be able to practice
on him. I can store him in my office when we're not using him;
there's a cupboard under my desk he'll like."
"Okay," said Harry, trying to sound as though he wasn't
apprehensive at all and merely glad that Lupin had found such a
good substitute for a real dementor.
"So..." Professor Lupin had taken out his own wand, and indicated
that Harry should do the same. "The spell I am going to try and
teach you is highly advanced magic, Harry -- well beyond ordinary
Wizarding Level. It is called the Patronus Charm."
"How does it work?" said Harry nervously.
"Well, when it works correctly, It conjures up a Patronus,"
said Lupin, "which is a kind of anti- dementor -- a guardian that
acts as a shield between you and the dementor."
Harry had a sudden vision of himself crouching behind a
Hagridsized figure holding a large club. Professor Lupin continued,
"The Patronus is a kind of positive force, a projection of the very
things that the dementor feeds upon -- hope, happiness, the desire
to survive -- but it cannot feel despair, as real humans can, so
the dementors can't hurt it. But I must warn you, Harry, that the
charm might be too advanced for you. Many qualified wizards have
difficulty with it."
"What does a Patronus look like?" said Harry curiously.
"Each one is unique to the wizard who conjures it."
"And how do you conjure it?"
"With an incantation, which will work only if you are
concentrating, with all your might, on a single, very happy memory."
Harry cast his mind about for a happy memory. Certainly, nothing
that had happened to him at the Dursleys' was going to do. Finally,
he settled on the moment when he had first ridden a broomstick.
"Right," he said, trying to recall as exactly as possible the
wonderful, soaring sensation of his stomach.
"The incantation is this --" Lupin cleared his throat. "Expecto
patronum!"
"Expecto patronum, " Harry repeated under his breath, "expecto
patronum."
"Concentrating hard on your happy memory?"
"Oh -- yeah --" said Harry, quickly forcing his thoughts back to
that first broom ride. "Expecto patrono -- no, patronum -- sorry --
expecto patronum, expecto patronum"
Something whooshed suddenly out of the end of his wand; it
looked like a wisp of silvery gas.
"Did you see that?" said Harry excitedly. "Something happened!"
"Very good," said Lupin, smiling. "Right, then -- ready to try
it on a dementor?"
"Yes," Harry said, gripping his wand very tightly, and moving
into the middle of the deserted classroom. He tried to keep his mind
on flying, but something else kept intruding.... Any second now,
he might hear his mother again... but he shouldn't think that,
or he would hear her again, and he didn't want to... or did he?
Lupin grasped the lid of the packing case and pulled.
A dementor rose slowly from the box, its hooded face turned
toward Harry, one glistening, scabbed hand gripping its cloak. The
lamps around the classroom flickered and went out. The dementor
stepped from the box and started to sweep silently toward Harry,
drawing a deep, rattling breath. A wave of piercing cold broke over
him --
"Expecto patronum!" Harry yelled. "Expecto patronum! Expecto --"
But the classroom and the dementor were dissolving.... Harry
was failing again through thick white fog, and his mother's voice
was louder than ever, echoing inside his head -- "Not Harry! Not
Harry! please -- I'll do anything!"
"Stand aside. Stand aside, girl!"
"Harry!"
Harry jerked back to life. He was lying flat on his back on
the floor. The classroom lamps were alight again. He didn't have
to ask what had happened.
"Sorry," he muttered, sitting up and feeling cold sweat trickling
down behind his glasses.
"Are you all right?" said Lupin.
"Yes..." Harry pulled himself up on one of the desks and leaned
against it.
"Here --" Lupin handed him a Chocolate Frog. "Eat this before
we try again. I didn't expect you to do it your first time; in fact,
I would have been astounded if you had."
"It's getting worse," Harry muttered, biting off the Frog's
head. "I could hear her louder that time -- and him -- Voldemort
Lupin looked paler than usual. ,
"Harry, if you don't want to continue, I will more than
understand --"
"I do!" said Harry fiercely, stuffing the rest of the Chocolate
Frog into his mouth. "I've got to! What if the dementors turn up at
our match against Ravenclaw? I can't afford to fall off again. If
we lose this game we've lost the Quidditch Cup!"
"All right then... " said Lupin. "You might want to select
'other memory, a happy memory, I mean, to concentrate on.... That
one doesn't seem to have been strong enough...."
Harry thought hard and decided his feelings when Gryffindor
had won the House Championship last year had definitely qualified
as very happy. He gripped his wand tightly again and took up his
position in the middle of the classroom.
"Ready?" said Lupin, gripping the box lid.
"Ready," said Harry; trying hard to fill his head with happy
thoughts about Gryffindor winning, and not dark thoughts about what
was going to happen when the box opened.
"Go!" said Lupin, pulling off the lid. The room went icily cold
and dark once more. The dementor glided forward, drawing its breath;
one rotting hand was extending toward Harry -
"Expecto patronum!" Harry yelled. "Expecto patronum! Expecto
Pat --"
White fog obscured his senses... big, blurred shapes were
moving around him... then came a new voice, a man's voice, shouting,
panicking --
"Lily, take Harry and go! It's him! Go! Run! I'll hold him
off --"
The sounds of someone stumbling ftom a room -- a door bursting
open -- a cackle of high- pitched laughter --
"Harry! Harry... wake up...."
Lupin was tapping Harry hard on the face. This time it was
a minute before Harry understood why he was lying on a dusty
classroom floor.
"I heard my dad," Harry mumbled. "That's the first time I've
ever heard him -- he tried to take on Voldemort himself, to give
my mum time to run for it...."
Harry suddenly realized that there were tears on his face
mingling with the sweat. He bent his face as low as possible,
wiping them off on his robes, pretending to do up his shoelace,
so that Lupin wouldn't see.
"You heard James?" said Lupin in a strange voice.
"Yeah..." Face dry, Harry looked up. "Why -- you didn't know
my dad, did you?"
"I -- I did, as a matter of fact," said Lupin. "We were friends
at Hogwarts. Listen, Harry -- perhaps we should leave it here for
tonight. This charm is ridiculously advanced.... I shouln't have
suggested putting you through this...."
"No!" said Harry. He got up again. "I'll have one more go! I'm
not thinking of happy enough things, that's what it is.... Hang
on...."
He racked his brains. A really, really happy memory... one that
he could turn into a good, strong Patronus...
The moment when he'd first found out he was a wizard, and would
be leaving the Dursleys for Hogwarts! If that wasn't a happy memory,
he didn't know what was.... Concentrating very hard on how he had
felt when he'd realized he'd be leaving Privet Drive, Harry got to
his feet and faced the packing case once more.
"Ready?" said Lupin, who looked as though he were doing this
against his better judgment. "Concentrating hard? All right -- go!"
He pulled off the lid of the case for the third time, and the
dementor rose out of it; the room fell cold and dark
'EXPECTO PATRONUM!" Harry bellowed. "EXPECTO PATRONUM! EXPECTO
PATRONUM! "
The screaming inside Harry's head had started again -- except
this time, it sounded as though it were coming from a badly tuned
radio -- softer and louder and softer again -- and he could still
see the dementor -- it had halted -- and then a huge, silver shadow
came bursting out of the end of Harry's wand, to hover between him
and the dementor, and though Harry's legs felt like water, he was
still on his feet -- though for how much longer, he wasn't sure --
"Riddikulus!" roared Lupin, springing forward.
There was a loud crack, and Harry's cloudy Patronus vanished
along with the dementor; he sank into a chair, feeling as exhausted
as if he'd just run a mile, and felt his legs shaking. Out of the
corner of his eye, he saw Professor Lupin forcing the boggart back
into the packing case with his wand; it had turned into a silvery
orb again.
"Excellent!" Lupin said, striding over to where Harry
sat. "Excellent, Harry! That was definitely a start!"
"Can we have another go? Just one more go?"
"Not now," said Lupin firmly. "You've had enough for one
night. Here --"
He handed Harry a large bar of Honeydukes' best chocolate.
"Eat the lot, or Madam Pomfrey will be after my blood. Same
time next week?"
"Okay," said Harry. He took a bite of the chocolate and
watched Lupin extinguishing the lamps that had rekindled with the
disappearance of the dementor. A thought had just occurred to him.
"Professor Lupin?" he said. "If you knew my dad, you must've
known Sirius Black as well."
Lupin turned very quickly.
"What gives you that idea?" he said sharply.
"Nothing -- I mean, I just knew they were friends at Hogwarts
too...."
Lupin's face relaxed.
"Yes, I knew him," he said shortly. "Or I thought I did. You'd
better be off, Harry, it's getting late."
Harry left the classroom, walking along the corridor and around
a corner, then took a detour behind a suit of armor and sank down
on its plinth to finish his chocolate, wishing he hadn't mentioned
Black, as Lupin was obviously not keen on the subject. Then Harry's
thoughts wandered back to his mother and father...
He felt drained and strangely empty, even though he was so
full of chocolate. Terrible though it was to hear his parents'
last moments replayed inside his head, these were the only times
Harry had heard their voices since he was a very small child. But
he'd never be able to produce a proper Patronus if he half wanted
to hear his parents again....
"They're dead," he told himself sternly. "They're dead and
listening to echoes of them won't bring them back. You'd better
get a grip on yourself if you want that Quidditch Cup."
He stood up, crammed the last bit of chocolate into his mouth,
and headed back to Gryffindor Tower.
Ravenclaw played Slytherin a week after the start of
term. Slytherin won, though narrowly. According to Wood, this was
good news for Gryffindor, who would take second place if they beat
Ravenclaw too. He therefore increased the number of team practices
to five a leek. This meant that with Lupin's anti-dementor classes,
which in themselves were more draining than six Quidditch practices,
Harry had just one night a week to do all his homework. Even so,
he was showing the strain nearly as much as Hermione, whose immense
workload finally seemed to be getting to her. Every night, without
fail, Hermione was to be seen in a corner of the common room, several
tables spread with books, Arithmancy charts, rune dictionaries,
diagrams of Muggles lifting heavy objects, and file upon file of
extensive notes; she barely spoke to anybody and snapped when she
was interrupted.
"How's she doing it?" Ron muttered to Harry one evening as Harry
sat finishing a nasty essay on Undetectable Poisons for Snape. Harry
looked up. Hermione was barely visible behind a tottering pile
of books.
"Doing what?"
"Getting to all her classes!" Ron said. "I heard her talking to
Professor Vector, that Arithmancy witch, this morning. They were
going on about yesterday's lesson, but Hermione can't 've been
there, because she was with us in Care of Magical Creatures! And
Ernie McMillan told me she's never missed a Muggle Studies class,
but half of them are at the same time as Divination, and she's
never missed one of them either!"
Harry didn't have time to fathom the mystery of Hermione's
impossible schedule at the moment; he really needed to get on with
Snape's essay. Two seconds later, however, he was interrupted again,
this time by Wood.
"Bad news, Harry. I've just been to see Professor McGonagall
about the Firebolt. She -- er -- got a bit shirty with me. Told m'
I'd got my priorities wrong. Seemed to think I cared more about
winning the Cup than I do about you staying alive. Just because I
told her I didn't care if it threw you off, as long as you caught
the Snitch first." Wood shook his head in disbelief. "Honestly,
the way she was yelling at me... you'd think I'd said something
terrible... then I asked her how much longer she was going to keep
it. He screwed up his face and imitated Professor McGonagall's
severe voice. 'As long as necessary, Wood'... I reckon it's time
you ordered a new broom, Harry. There's an order form at the back
of Which Broomstick... you could get a Nimbus Two Thousand and One,
like Malfoy's got."
"I'm not buying anything Malfoy thinks is good," said Harry
flatly.
January faded imperceptibly into February, with no change in
the bitterly cold weather. The match against Ravenclaw was drawing
nearer and nearer, but Harry still hadn't ordered a new broom. He
was now asking Professor McGonagall for news of the Firebolt after
every Transfiguration lesson, Ron standing hopefully at his shoulder,
Hermione rushing past with her face averted.
"No, Potter, you can't have it back yet," Professor McGonagall
told him the twelfth time this happened, before he'd even opened his
mouth. "We've checked for most of the usual curses, but Professor
Flitwick believes the broom might be carrying a Hurling Hex. I
shall tell you once we've finished checking it. Now, please stop
badgering me."
To make matters even worse, Harry's anti-dementor lessons were
not going nearly as well as he had hoped. Several sessions on,
he was able to produce an indistinct, silvery shadow every time
the boggart-dementor approached him, but his Patronus was too
feeble to drive the dementor away. All it did was hover, like a
semitransparent cloud, draining Harry of energy as he fought to
keep it there. Harry felt angry with himself, guilty about his
secret desire to hear his parents' voices again.
"You're expecting too much of yourself," said Professor Lupin,
sternly in their fourth week of practice. "For a thirteen-year-old
wizard, even an indistinct Patronus is a huge achievement. You
aren't passing out anymore, are you?"
I thought a Patronus would -- charge the dementors down or
something," said Harry dispiritedly. "Make them disappear --"
"The true Patronus does do that," said Lupin. "But you've
achieved a great deal in a very short space of time. If the dementors
put in an appearance at your next Quidditch match, You will be able
to keep them at bay long enough to get back to the ground."
"You said it's harder if there are loads of them," said Harry.
"I have complete confidence in you," said Lupin, smiling. "Here
-- you've earned a drink - something from the Three Broomsticks. You
won't have tried it before --"
He pulled two bottles out of his briefcase.
"Butterbeer!" said Harry, without thinking. "Yeah, I like
that stuff!"
Lupin raised an eyebrow.
"Oh -Ron and Hermione brought me some back from Hogsmeade,"
Harry lied quickly.
I see," said Lupin, though he still looked slightly
suspicious. "Well -- let's drink to a Gryffindor victory against
Ravenclaw! Not that I'm supposed to take sides, as a teacher... "
he added hastily
They drank the butterbeer in silence, until Harry voiced
something he'd been wondering for a while.
"What's under a dementor's hood?"
Professor Lupin lowered his bottle thoughtfully.
"Hmmm... well, the only people who really know are in no
condition to tell us. You see, the dementor lowers its hood only
to use its last and worst weapon."
"What's that?"
"They call it the Dementor's Kiss," said Lupin, with a slightly
twisted smile. "It's what dementors do to those they wish to destroy
utterly. I suppose there must be some kind of mouth under there,
because they clamp their jaws upon the mouth of the victim and --
and suck out his soul."
Harry accidentally spat out a bit of butterbeer.
"What -- they kill --?"
"Oh no," said Lupin. "Much worse than that. You can exist
without your soul, you know, as long as your brain and heart are
still working. But you'll have no sense of self anymore, no memory,
no. .. anything. There's no chance at all of recovery. You'll just
exist. As an empty shell. And your soul is gone forever... lost."
Lupin drank a little more butterbeer, then said, "It's the
fate that awaits Sirius Black. It was in the Daily Prophet this
morning. The Ministry have given the dementors permission to perform
it if they find him."
Harry sat stunned for a moment at the idea of someone having
their soul sucked out through their mouth. But then he thought
of Black.
"He deserves it," he said suddenly.
"You think so?" said Lupin lightly. "Do you really think anyone
deserves that?"
"Yes," said Harry defiantly. "For... for some things..."
He would have liked to have told Lupin about the conversation
he'd overheard about Black in the Three Broomsticks, about Black
betraying his mother and father, but it would have involved revealing
that he'd gone to Hogsmeade without permission, and he knew Lupin
wouldn't be very impressed by that. So he finished his butterbeer,
thanked Lupin, and left the History of Magic classroom.
Harry half wished that he hadn't asked what was under
a dementor's hood, the answer had been so horrible, and he was
so lost in unpleasant thoughts of what it would feel like to have
your soul sucked out of you that he walked headlong into Professor
McGonagall halfway up the stairs.
"Do watch where you're going, Potter!"
"Sorry, Professor --"
"I've just been looking for you in the Gryffindor common room,
Well, here it is, we've done everything we could think of, and there
doesn't seem to be anything wrong with it at all. You've got a very
good friend somewhere, Potter...."
Harry's jaw dropped. She was holding out his Firebolt, and it
looked as magnificent as ever.
"I can have it back?" Harry said weakly. "Seriously?"
"Seriously," said Professor McGonagall, and she was actually
smiling. "I daresay you'll need to get the feel of it before
Saturday's match, won't you? And Potter -- do try and win, won't
you? Or we'll be out of the running for the eighth year. in a row,
as Professor Snape was kind enough to remind me only last night...."
Speechless, Harry carried the Firebolt back upstairs toward
Gryffindor Tower. As he turned a corner, he saw Ron dashing toward
him, grinning from ear to ear.
"She gave it to You? Excellent! Listen, can I still have a go
on it? Tomorrow?"
"Yeah... anything," said Harry, his heart lighter than it
had been in a month. "You know what -- we should make up with
Hermione.... She was only trying to help...."
"Yeah, all right," said Ron. "She's in the common room how
working, for a change --"
They turned into the corridor to Gryffindor Tower and saw
Neville Longbottom, pleading with Sir Cadogan, who seemed to be
refusing him entrance.
"I wrote them down!" Neville was saying tearfully. "But I
must've dropped them somewhere!"
"A likely tale!" roared Sir Cadogan. Then, spotting Harry
and Ron: "Good even, my fine young yeomen! Come clap this loon in
irons. He is trying to force entry to the chambers within!"
"Oh, shut up," said Ron as he and Harry drew level with Neville.
"I've lost the passwords!" Neville told them miserably. "I made
him tell me what passwords he was going to use this week, because he
keeps changing them, and now I don't know what I've done with them!"
"Oddsbodikins," said Harry to Sir Cadogan, who looked extremely
disappointed and reluctantly swung forward to let them into the
common room. There was a sudden, excited murmur as every head turned
and the next moment, Harry was surrounded by people exclaiming over
his Firebolt.
"Where'd you get it, Harry?"
"Will you let me have a go?" "Have you ridden it yet, Harry?"
"Ravenclaw'll have no chance, they're all on Cleansweep Sevens!"
"Can I just hold it, Harry?"
After ten minutes or so, during which the Firebolt was Passed
around and admired from every angle, the crowd dispersed and Harry
and Ron had a clear view of Hermione, the only person who hadn't
rushed over to them, bent over her work and carefully avoiding their
eyes. Harry and Ron approached her table and at last, she looked up.
"I got it back," said Harry, grinning at her and holding up
the Firebolt.
"See, Hermione? There wasn't anything wrong with it!" said Ron.
"Well -- there might have been!" said Hermione. "I mean, at
least you know now that it's safe!"
"Yeah, I suppose so," said Harry. "Id better put it upstairs."
"I'll take it!" said Ron eagerly. "I've got to give Scabbers
his rat tonic."
He took the Firebolt and, holding it as if it were made of glass,
carried it away up the boys' staircase.
"Can I sit down, then?" Harry asked Hermione.
"I suppose so," said Hermione, moving a great stack of parchment
off a chair.
Harry looked around at the cluttered table, at the long
Arithmancy essay on which the ink was still glistening, at the even
longer Muggle Studies essay ("Explain Why Muggles Need Electricity"
and at the rune translation Hermione was now poring over.
"How are you getting through all this stuff?" Harry asked her.
"Oh, well -- you know -- working hard," said Hermione. Close-up,
Harry saw that she looked almost as tired as Lupin.
"Why don't you just drop a couple of subjects?" Harry asked,
watching her lifting books as she searched for her rune dictionary.
"I couldn't do that!" said Hermione, looking scandalized.
"Arithmancy looks terrible," said Harry, picking up a very
complicated-looking number chart.
"Oh no, it's wonderful!" said Hermione earnestly. "It's my
favorite subject! It's --"
But exactly what was wonderful about Arithmancy, Harry never
found out. At that precise moment, a strangled yell echoed down
the boys' staircase. The whole common room fell silent, staring,
petrified, at the entrance. Then came hurried footsteps, growing
louder and louder -- and then Ron came leaping into view, dragging
with him a bedsheet.
"LOOK!" he bellowed, striding over to Hermione's table.
"LOOK!" he yelled, shaking the sheets in her face.
"Ron, what --?"
"SCABBERS! LOOK! SCABBERS!"
Hermione was leaning away from Ron, looking utterly
bewildered. Harry looked down at the sheet Ron was holding. There
was something red on it. Something that looked horribly like --
"BLOOD!" Ron yelled into the stunned silence. "HE'S GONE! AND
YOU KNOW WHAT WAS ON THE FLOOR?"
"N -- no," said Hermione in a trembling voice.
Ron threw something down onto Hermione's rune
translation. Hermione and Harry leaned forward. Lying on top of
the weird, spiky shapes were several long, ginger cat hairs.
