Harry Potter: Blood of the Dragon

Chapter 59 - 59. Look Cool

Just right there, in front of him, was a Werewolf. Decently big and creepy looking. Its growling was causing vibrations in the air which could be felt by Magnus.

~I should've gone to sleep.~ he cursed himself. ??

His wand was still making light. But, he did know by now that this Werewolf was actually Remus, so, he didn't want to hurt him too much.

~Ah, wasn't it silver they feared?"~

So, Magnus quickly transfigured a piece of wood into a silver brick and threw it at the werewolf's face.

*BAM*

"GRRRRR..."

~Oh, he's angry now. Those books lied.~ Magnus felt betrayed by the bedtime stories at the moment. He was going to tell his mom about them being false later.

Now, he had no option but to use magic. The best way was to not let the werewolf move. So, he decided to use the full-body binding curse. It was taught in the 3rd year but he already knew it and had practised it in the Room of the requirement under the guidance of Merlin.

"PETRIFICUS TOTALUS..." Magnus shouted. The reason why he still shouted was that just like any other normal student, shouting lets you focus more on the spell. This way, it resulted in a powerful effect. As a wizard grows up, their focus gets better and they don't need to shout, some don't even need to speak.

A short beam of light came out of the tip of Magnus' wand and reached the werewolf, who was still growling at him and slowly coming towards him.

*BAM*

The spell touched the werewolf and he stopped. Magnus got relaxed, ~Hah, I should go back now.~

*GROWL*

Suddenly, the werewolf jumped towards him, free from the binding curse. Magnus immediately summoned his Hope sword and made its hilt to get stuck in the werewolf's mouth. It was the most important part, if you got bitten, that was game over.

"WHY ARE YOU STILL MOVING... WAIT... STUPID! STUPID! I AM STUPID!... magical creatures have magical resistance." He cursed at himself.

*SLASH*

"AAAAH..." Magnus felt slight pain over his left eyebrow. Blood started oozing out of it. He could only keep one eye open now.

"WAKE UP... REMUS... YOU DON'T WANT TO DO THIS..." Magnus shouted while fighting the Werewolf head-on and also dodging his claws.

"RAAAAAAAA..."

The beast was mindless and there was no point in trying to talk with it. "It's gonna hurt you..."

Magnus was stopping the werewolf with his sword stuck in the jaws, he looked at the ugly face up close. The eyes were red and full of bloodlust.

"Sorry, you can't have this fine meat," he said and immediately opened his own mouth.

"HAAAAAAAAAAAA..." Deep red fire came out of Magnus' mouth, directly touching the werewolf's face. It was very hot and looked scary as Magnus' eyes were glowing red like a light bulb. The werewolf screamed in annoyance and let the sword go.

It quickly jumped back, afraid of touching the fire. Magnus did not stop spewing fire and cornered the werewolf, finally fear appeared in the eyes of the beast. Magnus had it easy because Remus was young and hence the Werewolf transformation was not as strong.

Then, Magnus lifted his wand again and cast another spell, "Wingardium Leviosa..."

He made the werewolf hover in midair, making it immobile for good. He then sat down on the ground and transfigured a piece of wood into a mirror to see what had happened to his eyes.

"AH... this does not look good. How will I explain the scar to mummy?" He wondered, a bit scared now.

Then, he turned to look at the Werewolf that was still trying to move. It would soon lose its strength and calm down. Magnus felt bad for Remus. It was a night of revelations for him. Who could have thought, the intelligent boy from Gryffindor was a werewolf.

~Truly a cursed life. Is he inherently a werewolf or did something happen?~ he wondered.

Magnus stayed there, keeping Remus in midair. Not knowing what storm he had created for teachers in Hogwarts by disappearing because Ragnar and Snape had informed Slughorn about it.

...

2 AM, Slytherin Dorms.

All were asleep. Including Snape and Ragnar.

"MEOWWWW..." All of a sudden, Chad started crying. He jumped on top of Ragnar and punched his face until he woke up.

"Hehe... more..." Ragnar chuckled, only God knew what he was seeing in his dreams.

*Scratch*

Seeing no other way, Chad made a sharp scratch on his face. In pain, Ragnar woke up. "AAAAH... Stupid cat."

"MEOWWW..." Chad waved his paws dramatically and pointed towards Magnus' bed. Seeing how strangely he was acting, Ragnar entertained. He turned to the bed and saw nobody on it.

"Where is he? Did he go to the washroom?" He wondered and looked at the clock. It was 2 AM. Then he checked closely and saw no wrinkles on the bed.

"Didn't he go to meet Dumbledore? Why would he stay there? OYE... SEV, WAKE UP!" He called out.

Snape was a light sleeper and immediately woke up to his call. He turned to him. "What is it?"

"LOOK, Magnus has not returned. It's 2 AM. We should report to Professor Slughorn, no point in telling the headboy." He said.

Snape rubbed his eyes and got up, "Let's go."

They headed out of the common room. But were immediately found out by Argus Filch. He spontaneously started cursing them and complaining.

"Calm down, Filch. We are going to Professor Slughorn. Magnus has not returned to the common room, last he went to meet Professor Dumbledore." Ragnar immediately controlled the whining man.

"Impossible, I was here all along, no one can run out of here," Flitch said.

Snape rolled his eyes, "He did not come here in the first place. You can come with us if you want."

So, they went to the teacher's chambers and woke Slughorn up. He was in his nightsuit. "Professor, Magnus did not come to the dorms tonight. He's still missing."

Slughorn's eyes shot open as soon as he heard that. Any other missing kid would not have made him so uneasy, but Magnus was a different case, so many people were after him. "Where was he the last time you saw him?"

"He said he's going to meet Professor Dumbledore," Ragnar revealed.

"Let's go to the Headmaster's office then." He changed his clothes with magic and left.

Soon, the word reached Dumbledore. He first checked the office he had given to Magnus but nobody was there.

Now they felt worried. Most of the teachers were woken up to search for him. Ghosts were asked to find him too. After hours of searching, Dumbledore finally had the idea of asking the portrait of Merlin.

"He went out of the castles the last I remember. I don't think I saw him come back." Merlin told them.

Hearing this, Dumbledore has a bad premonition. He looked out of the castle and the sun was about to rise. All of a sudden, the fact that it was a full moon appeared in his mind.

"Everyone, you look for him in the school. I will find him outside." Dumbledore told them and left.

...

Shrieking Shack,

The small shack had no window, so Magnus had no idea if it was still night outside, but from the fact that Remus was still a Werewolf, he knew it was night. But, it should be morning soon.

He waited continuously, trying to talk to the Werewolf. Even the werewolf had tried himself out now and didn't move much.

Magnus was feeling sleepy by now and tired due to continuously using magic all this time. But, finally, some changes started appearing on the werewolf.

"Y-You shouldn't h-have come..." a muffled voice came from the werewolf.

Magnus released the Werewolf as he started to devolve back to the human form. "Sorry, nobody told me you were a Werewolf. I just thought a suspicious nurse was taking a kid somewhere secretly and I got worried."

Slowly, Remus returned to his human body. Though he had no clothes on. But there was a small cupboard with some clothes for him. He immediately wore them and sat down.

"So I guess today is my last day at Hogwarts," Remus stated with a saddened face.

"Why would you say that?" Magnus asked.

"Before I started here, professor Dumbledore told me to keep this a secret from students, and if found, I'd have to go away," Remus replied.

*Sigh*

"I think I can keep it a secret. As long as you keep mine." Magnus said.

Remus felt confused, "Your secret... oh... You can make fire from your mouth... HOW DID YOU DO THAT?"

"Haha, I don't know. Maybe inherited from Merlin. But, I'd rather not be called something weird because of it, at least not now. So, don't worry. Though this scar is going to stay for life now I guess." Magnus looked at his face in the mirror.

"Sorry," Remus apologised.

"No problem, I will look cool with it... hehe," Magnus chuckled.
