OKAY THIS ONE IS PRETTY LONG BUT IT’S AWESOME SO READ IT!




The first day back at Hogwarts is always soooo exciting! Apparently Harry Potter fainted when the dementors came on the train last night. So this morning when I came down for breakfast Draco was doing a lame impression of fainting so I showed him how it’s done.

“Hey guys! I can faint way better than that!” Everyone looked at me. I took a deep breath and held it for as long as I could until everything went black.



I woke up in the hospital wing an hour later.



Our first new class was divination and we were reading tea leaves.

“I see…a unicorn! And it means…everyone gives me money!” Professor Trelawney said my aura is strong, then Crabbe gave me 5 sickles and Draco slapped him upside the head.

Our other new class was Care of Magical Creatures,

On my way down to Hagrid’s hut I noticed we’d be having this lesson with the Gryffindors, Draco really hates them. I don’t know why though, I love everybody! EXCEPT PANSY PARKINSON, I HATE her. Anyway, when we got down there Hagrid was standing outside waiting for us…

“C’mon now get a move on!” he called “Got a real treat for yeh today! Great lesson comin’ up! Everyone here? Right, follow me!” he turned around and walked away. We all followed.

“Everyone gather ‘round the fence here! That’s it, make sure yeh can see, now, firs’ thing yeh’ll want ter do is open yer books,” “How?” said Draco. I shoved Pansy out of my way and stood next to him. “Eh?” said Hagrid. “How do we open our books?” he took out his copy of The Monster Book of Monsters which he had tied shut with a length of rope. A few others throughout the crowd took theirs out too, some had belted their book shut, others had crammed them inside tight bags or clamped them together with binder clips. “Hasn’ - Hasn’ anyone bin able ter open their books?” said Hagrid, looking downcast.

Everyone shook their heads, seeing as no one else had befriended their books, I kept my mouth shut. “Yeh’ve got ter stroke ‘em” Said Hagrid, as though this was the most obvious thing in the world. “Look” He took Granger’s copy and ripped off the Spellotape that bound it. The book tried to attack him, but Hagrid ran a giant finger down it’s spine, the book shivered, fell open and lay silent on his hand. I only had to hold back the urge to scream “YOU KILLED IT!” for a second until Draco spoke again “Oh, how silly we’ve all been! We should have stroked them! Why didn’t we guess!” “I – I thought they were funny,” said Hagrid. “OH, Tremendously funny!” said Draco “Really witty, giving us books that try and rip our hands off!” I zoned out for a bit and staring at him until he noticed, then I stared at the ground. I hope he doesn’t know I like him! He has a big enough head as it is. Once I came back from my thoughts to the real world there were a dozen of the weirdest things I’d ever seen trotting over. They we’re half horse and half bird. Hagrid had them all on leashes like puppies, I thought they were cute. “Hippogriffs!” Said Hagrid indicating the horseybirds. “Beau’iful, Aren’ they?” I LIKE them! Hippogriffs! My new favorite animal! I’ll ‘see’ one o’ them in my tea leaves next in divination, but what can they mean… Once I realized I spaced again the gray one, Buckbeak, had taken off with Potter. I took the opportunity of Hagrid being distracted and jumped the fence to get the chestnut colored one. As soon as I got within 5 feet the hippogriffs scattered. It was almost like they feared me… Hagrid totally overreacted when he saw me chasing the chestnut one around, but once I was back on the student’s side of the fence Potter landed and Hagrid let us all come up and greet the hippogriffs, except me. I think he said he was worried I would hurt them or something; I sat down and stared at Draco again. He, Crabbe and Goyle were working on Buckbeak, he had bowed to Draco who was patting his beak, looking disdainful. “This is very easy,” he said “I knew it must have been, if Potter could do it...I bet you’re not dangerous at all, are you, you great ugly brute?” It happened so fast I had to go over it in my head a few times before I knew why Hagrid was wrestling Buckbeak back into his collar, and why Draco was lying in the grass holding his bleeding arm. “I’m dying!” Draco yelled. “I’m dying, look at me! It’s killed me!” I don’t like that hippogriff. “Yer not dyin’!” said Hagrid who had gone very white. “Someone help me – gotta get him outta here –“ he picked him up ran with him up the slope to the castle. It was really scary. Our class started to walk up the same way, All the Slytherins were shouting about Hagrid. “They should fire him right away!” said Pansy, who was in tears. “It was Malfoy’s fault!” snapped Dean Thomas,

We all climbed the stone steps into the deserted entrance hall. “I’m going to see if he’s okay!” said Pansy and she ran up the staircase toward the hospital wing. SHE IS SO ANNOYING! She thinks she’s his girlfriend or something! Well she’s got another thing coming! As the Gryffindors and Slytherins went they’re separate ways I took off up the stairs shoved Pansy out of my way and beat her to the hospital wing. Oh and he’s ok! =)
