HP: For a better world
Chapter 7: The Dementors Appear Early
It was probably the cheering mood that attracted the Dementors and allowed them to enter the train early. Winster held the wand carefully and closed all the doors.
Lupin is not here.
"What happened?" Harry asked, "Is there a power outage?" He looked around, the setting sun gently and mercifully shining on their faces, making them look a little blurry. The corridor was dark.
Harry vaguely saw Ron's face move.
"The car seems to have stopped," said Ron. "What happened?"
The train shook violently.
"Take out your wand." Winster said nervously. Hermione grasped the wand nervously, "What happened, Winster?"
"Something's wrong Hermione, something seems to be coming up."
"Maybe it's the Dementors."
"What!" "What?"
Winster took a deep breath and stared at the door: "Hermione, explain to them my previous notes!" Winster prompted quickly.
"This is impossible--" Ron shuddered. Harry interrupted Ron, "What is a Dementor?" he asked in confusion. Hermione explained to him with a pale face: "It is a kind of dark magic creature that is driven away by the Patronus Charm. They suck people's ..."
Several screams broke out in the distance.
Something seemed to be approaching in the air——
I don't know who swallowed.
"Hermione...think about it...think of a solution..." Ron trembled, with tears in his throat. "Don't you read so many books? Think of a solution!"
"No... I don't know... the book mentions... too little... only... the Patronus Charm." Hermione shivered and her voice trembled.
"Where's Winster? Say something!" Ron's distorted voice echoed in the carriage.
"I've only lost my memory for less than three months!" Winster shouted, "I just know it! I can't do it yet!"
"Where's Professor Lupin?! Where did he go?" Ron cried.
"He just went off on patrol! We have to hold out until he gets back!"
The chill is getting worse...it seems like the sunset has left...
It seemed as if all the unfortunate things had gathered on this train.
"Harry? Harry? Wake up!" Hermione saw that Harry looked a little dazed and slapped him quickly.
"Dementors will bring back your most painful memories and suck all the joy out of you - wake up, Harry!"
A mournful tune was heard outside the carriage.
It sounded like someone was crying...but the sound was so faint that it seemed sad...
Winster heard someone cursing hysterically, someone throwing things, someone screaming loudly... someone crying...
They leaned nervously together, wands pointed anywhere.
The black color gradually approached, and the air seemed to be filled with the stench of rotting fish in the stagnant water of a pond.
Suddenly, a faint light appeared... and a finger as thin as a phalanx was placed on the door frame.
The world seemed to turn gray.
Ice spread from the finger and froze the car windows... but the door... the door was about to be opened - the Dementor appeared at the door of the car... it 'saw' Winston and the others, four delicious and charming "snacks".
Someone seemed to have let out a shrill scream, and the Dementors were about to come in -
Winster grabbed a glass of water from the table and poured it on the door frame. Hermione understood Winster's idea in an instant, and she shouted loudly:
"——Immbuls!"
The ice froze quickly and more solidly than usual, freezing the entire door frame.
The Dementor waved its robe, which was hollow like rotten leaves, and clenched its hands in the air, but the door was sealed and did not move. It seemed to be enraged, and sent out invisible waves around to summon its companions.
Hermione looked desperate.
Soon, more Dementors surrounded the place, two crowded at the door, and four next to each other outside the window, floating outside the window glass like wandering souls.
The ground was frozen so solid that you couldn't see outside.
Everything seemed to be getting darker and darker, something seemed to have fallen over next to me, my ears felt numb for some reason, and cold liquid kept dripping from my hands.
Winster felt his body getting heavier and heavier, as if many hands were grabbing him and dragging him into the water.
The Dementor breathed in ecstasy, swallowing the joy in the air in big gulps.
The sounds seemed to have faded away.
...Winster saw a little boy with black hair, walking down a corridor with his head down. He was wearing a slightly oversized robe, holding a wand whose color he couldn't see, and walked forward cautiously. The boy suddenly jumped up and dodged a spell. He knew something was wrong, and rushed forward as soon as he landed, but was frozen by a leg, and the momentum of the forward rush mercilessly knocked him to the ground.
A stream of heat flowed down from his head, and he was pulled up by his hair. Someone kicked him, someone stuffed something creepy and squirming into his clothes with a strange smile, and someone took away his schoolbag... parchment was torn into pieces, ink bottles were overturned, wands were pulled out of hands and thrown aside at random... wild laughter echoed in Winster's ears.
[…If you want to kill them…]
When a crazy, uncontrollable flame was about to burst out in Winster's heart——
A flash of silver light lit up, dispelling all the coldness and turning into a wisp of smoke that disappeared at the end of the sight.
Winster suddenly woke up.
The flame seemed to still be burning in his heart. Winster found himself touching the door of the carriage with a tight breath, and he only needed to cast a spell to step out.
Harry, Ron and Hermione seemed to have not yet recovered from the presence of so many Dementors.
The ice on the glass began to melt, revealing Lupin's angry face.
The Dementors outside the window also fled in a hurry.
He roared at the group of dispersed Dementors in the corridor: "How dare you?! Dirty, disgusting, despicable - do you want to kill these students!"
"Several Dementors are surrounding students - this is not Azkaban!"
Winster's hands trembled belatedly. He had gripped the wand too hard before, luckily he didn't break it.
Hermione gasped loudly and came to, too. Ron's screams finally died away in his mouth, his eyes tightly shut and his mouth open as if he could swallow a Murtera, and Harry fell unconscious to the ground.
The nightmare of my birth was about to come back.
"…The Ministry of Magic will be finished sooner or later!"
Lupin knocked on the door with his wand, and the ice on the door disappeared instantly. He walked in with anger still lingering: "...Fudge is really crazy! How dare he send these things to the students' train...They should stay in Azkaban - doesn't he know that these Dementors will hurt you! Dumbledore will be very angry - Harry? Harry?!" Lupin suddenly noticed Harry lying on the ground, "Merlin's socks, are you okay?" He quickly helped Harry up from the ground and sat down.
Winster was silent for a while, and the memory that had just appeared seemed to disappear suddenly, leaving only a remnant of laughter echoing in his ears.
—Is that the original owner's memory? Did Hermione know? Did he mean that the original owner's friends knew that he was bullied at school?
"I'm fine, but Harry doesn't look well—"
Winster covered it up subconsciously, feeling a little itchy on his head. He looked around the carriage. In addition to some things that were accidentally knocked over, there were several bags of luggage that had fallen to the ground and some snacks spilled out of them - Lupin checked Harry worriedly, but Harry just fainted.
Lupin: "Who has some chocolate left? They were all distributed when I came over."
Winster: "I have some. Here, and some chocolate frogs."
After a while, Harry staggered to his feet from the chair, and Hermione handed him the glasses, "Oh...what happened, how can I-wait, they are coming in!" Harry suddenly shouted. Harry remembered that he saw the Dementors about to open the door before he fainted.
"Calm down Harry, they didn't come in." Hermione's eyes were still a little red. She took the chocolate frog that Winster had torn open, took a bite and said, "Winster and I sealed the door - now we are both children who survived." Hermione smiled and blinked at Harry.
Lupin was relieved to see Harry regain consciousness and told them to eat the chocolate.
"Harry, if there's anything wrong, you must tell me. I need to go out and take a look again."
He said this worriedly, and hurriedly walked to a nearby carriage with more Chocolate Frogs to distribute to the surrounding students.
"It was so thrilling just now! One, two, three, four, five - five Dementors. I dare say, I dare say that even the prisoners in the innermost part of Azkaban are not as 'lucky' as us - it felt like I almost died."
Ron coughed a few times because of discomfort in his throat, and Harry was surprised to hear that his voice was a little hoarse: "Fortunately... you two froze the door frame in time, otherwise the Dementors would have come in! It's terrible, it seems like they wanted to give us a kiss, ugh--" Ron made a nauseous gesture.
Harry felt a little out of pace: "What kiss?"
Lupin came back in, apparently having distributed all the chocolates - he sat down next to Harry wearily, "The Dementor's Kiss. Once you are caught, they will use it to suck out your soul and turn you into a walking corpse without emotions or consciousness. Our Ministry of Magic uses this to execute people."
Winster took a bite of the chocolate frog - the chocolate almost jumped out of his hand just now - a warm current spread throughout his body, and he finally felt a little warm, and something cool seemed to be flowing down his head.
"Winster! Your head is bleeding!" Hermione screamed. Winster touched his head in surprise, and his palm was covered with cold blood.
"Maybe I bumped into something and the freezing spell froze the wound, so I just discovered it now." Winster covered his forehead and said. Lupin cleaned his wound and pointed his wand at it, and the wound healed. "Thank you, Professor." Winster said.
"So," Harry asked, "you all just fainted?"
Ron and Hermione looked at each other.
"Almost, Harry," Winston rubbed his head and felt that it seemed to still be in pain, "Ron was screaming, Hermione was crying, and it was even worse when I woke up - I almost opened the sealed door. Fortunately, Professor Lupin arrived in time."
Harry acted like he was relieved.
"You did a great job, kids. You bought me precious time to drive them away," Lupin praised.
"How did you come up with the Freezing Curse?" Lupin asked curiously. "What a brilliant idea! If I were in school now, I would definitely give you 20 extra points."
Ron turned his gaze to Hermione.
Hermione said, "It was Winster who reminded me." She snuggled comfortably in the chair with a cup of hot water in her arms. "The Dementors were about to come in, and we were all panicking. It was Winster who suddenly poured a cup of water on the door, and then I thought of the Freezing Curse."
Winster smiled and said, "It was thanks to the practical spell book Hermione sent me. I have been using it during this holiday, so I was able to think of freezing the door in time. But after I splashed the water, I didn't have time to cast the spell, and the Dementors were about to open the door. Hermione reacted the fastest - just like those quiz competitions on TV, with a 'pop' sound, Granger scored!" He pretended to have a quiz button on the table, pressed it with a 'pop' sound, and excitedly pretended to shout. Harry and Hermione were amused, and Ron also laughed twice in confusion, but he obviously didn't understand. Lupin smiled at them from the side.
The four of them laughed, as if to vent their fear.
The rain pattered against the glass.
They then noticed that it was raining outside the window.
It was completely dark.
Lupin went out for a few more patrols and came back to remind them to change their robes as they were chatting too happily.
When Winster and the others had changed into robes and sorted out their scattered things, they heard a long whistle overhead. The train crossed the last bridge before arriving at Hogsmeade Station.
A cluster of warm lights lit up ahead, and a gradually enlarged figure stood on the platform, with hundreds of skinny Yeqi-pulled carriages parked nearby to greet them.
——We have arrived at Hogwarts.
