A different point of view

-GREAT HALL DINNER-

I and the rest of the professors were at the Professor's table in the great hall waiting to plan for the mysterious thing.

Our trap was a faculty member we Transfigured into a student he wouldn't been in that much harm.

Surprisingly, our trap was triggered on the first day. I was happy to get some revenge, but I kept my calm.

We slowly approached the ghosts where we stood under them. A ghost came down and said it seems like it's not that intelligent based on its movements; it's more like a wild animal."

He returned to his position, and then a ghost suddenly went limp, and the ghost had shocked expressions on their faces.

I could tell what happened. The thing killed the ghost, but it was unholy how fast it happened if he had just been in a non-battling stance roughly 2 seconds ago.

He had to have covered at least 4 meters in 1.5 seconds. No ghost was that fast and this dangerous; he killed a ghost.

We must capture it. It doesn't matter, I shouted: "Start firing the Astral chains NOW!"

The professors followed my lead but missed the ghost getting hurt; we didn't land a hit.

Snape fired one at a ghost. He assumed the thing would attack; his prediction was right, and he latched on and started pulling. I used this to my advantage.

I saw where the chain was, and I fired there. It latched on I started pulling.

I could feel the strength of it, and us, too, pulling probably didn't even phase it.

Then a ghost screamed, "There's another one." I froze for a moment And then said, " Two professors go over there and try and pin it." Professor Sprout and Professor Flitwick ran toward the area after they got into the general area.

Then they were sent flying by some brute force. Snape could see that they needed help, and our physical strength was way weaker than the thing.

I couldn't blame him, but then my chain snapped, and the thing headed for the other one.

These things were strong and intelligent, and they tricked us into thinking they had the intelligence of a squirrel. They had planned for our plan. I had too many questions and too few answers.

Snape was being fended off; I could tell because he started to cough up blood. They could've killed him, but Snape, in a last-ditch effort, sent a chain toward the thing's last known location, and he got one.

Snape said "This one is stronger than the other one at least in physical strength" Snape was then dragged and he said "It's being dragged by something probably the other one is trying to save it"

His chain broke and he threw another one where it was and he said "They're gone!!! Where did they go?!?!?!" One of the few ghosts left was Nearly headless nich and he said "The one with zippers was the one you got it somehow ripped a hole in The ground and it closed it and they escaped"

Snape was attended by Madam Pomfrey, who ran into the professor's entrance and had multiple assistants carry multiple stretchers. They then proceeded to pick up multiple Professors.

It was a sad loss. I was pissed that we didn't get revenge for the fallen. They had escaped somehow.

There was banging at the door it was probably the students and it was I unlocked the door and said "Please eat in your rooms"
