33 Firebolt and Patronus

A couple of weeks have passed since the match.

After learning about Sirius Black's betrayal of his parents, Harry was furious and wanted revenge, but his friends persuaded him to leave it to the dementors, but he wanted more information so he decided to go see Hagrid.

So they collected their cloaks from the bedrooms and set out, through the portrait hole ('Watch out, felons, scoundrels!').

They walked through the empty castle and out the main oak doors.

They walked slowly across the grass, leaving their footprints in the soft, shiny snow, wetting and freezing their socks and the bottoms of their cloaks. The forbidden forest now seemed enchanted. Every tree shone like silver and Hagrid's hut looked like a frozen pie.

Sasuke managed to finish building his base, while placing protective jutsus and hiding him.

Then he equipped it with weapons and canned food, then he proceeded to train the summoning jutsu, the snake had it in his room but nothing appeared, he was just hitting the floor with the palm of his hand, after hours of trying, he withdrew to meet Luna to visit the Thetrals, they weren't invisible to them, but she didn't ask why.

So I ask Luna why a wizard only has one wand he can't have two at the same time.

She replies that one couldn't handle both at the same time, it would be like looking left and right at the same time.

Sasuke: I'm not saying to carry it both at the same time, I mean to keep it in emergencies such as in a duel, you lose your wand, the only thing that awaits you is to be killed right.

moon nods

But what would happen if I have two, and the second one would be deformed in either a necklace or a brooch. In case they disarm me or lock me up, the other wand would be available to me, don't you think?

Luna was surprised by such a statement, she replied that you look like a Ravenclaw "An intelligence without limits is the greatest treasure of men"

But having another wand is difficult since it is expensive, the first one for us students is given a special discount, for being first year, and I think we would get in trouble with the ministry since Olivander would surely notify us, unless we have a permission from our parents or teachers that our wand is broken but it would be expensive.

So how about we have it manufactured outside of London in another country since Olivander is not the only wand maker.

Luna says that we would have to go to choose her since the wand chooses the wizard.

Sasuke nods that it is true but if we get the same material from our core and give them our wands to guide them on how to make the proper adjustments since these we have are already adjusted to our comforts, it would no longer be necessary to travel far than one. travel or send them by mail.

So tell me which is the core of your wand because mine is from the tail of thetrals says Sasuke.

Luna replies Phoenix Feather, since it's hard to get, Sasuke laughs and puts a phoenix feather in her hand.

Luna asks how you got it

Sasuke replies that it was easy, do you remember last year when the director called me into his office to tell what happened in the chamber of secrets, I sneakily approached his phoenix's coat rack and took a few feathers to use to practice potions, but with this you already have for your nucleus.

Now help me get mine, you can calm down the tetrhals to cut a few hairs.

Luna accepts, and they leave since for the holidays that would be their project to have their second wand, and when the following school year begins they would find a way to deform it to also take it with them.

-------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------------

The following week in the Gryffindor common room, Ron woke Harry by throwing his pillow at him.

"Wake up, the presents!"

"Another mommy's sweater." Brown again. See if you have another.

Harry had another. Mrs. Weasley had sent her a red jumper with the Gryffindor lion on the front, a dozen homemade biscuits, a slice of cake, and a box of nougat. Removing the things, she saw a long, narrow package below.

-What's that? Ron asked. "I don't know…" Harry opened the package and gasped as he saw a magnificent shiny broom roll across the bedspread. Ron dropped his socks and jumped out of bed to get a closer look at her.

"I can't believe it," she said, her voice cracking with emotion. She was a Firebolt

"Who sent it to you?" Ron asked quietly.

"Look for a card," said Harry.

-Nothing! Wow, who would spend so much money to give you a gift?

"Well," said Harry, stunned. I'm sure it wasn't the Dursleys.

"I'm sure it was Dumbledore," Ron said. He anonymously sent you the Invisibility Cloak.

"It had been my father's," said Harry. Dumbledore just forwarded it to me. Hundreds of galleons would not be spent on me. He can't go giving students things like that.

"That's why I couldn't admit it was him," Ron said.

In case some jerk like Malfoy accused him of favoritism.

Malfoy! Uchiha!" Ron laughed uproariously. You'll see when they see you riding it! They will get sick! This is a professional broom!

"I can't believe it," Harry muttered, running his hand over the Arrowbolt.

Fire as Ron doubled over on Harry's bed thinking of Malfoy.

-Who...?

—I know... who could have been... Lupin!

-That? Harry said, laughing too. Lupine? Look, if he had that much money, he could buy himself a new robe.

"Yeah, but he likes you," Ron said. When your Nimbus was smashed, he was out, but maybe he'd find out and decide to head down to Diagon Alley to buy it from you.

"What was out?" Harry asked. During the game he was sick.

"Well, he wasn't in the infirmary," Ron said. I was there cleaning the chamber pots, for Snape's punishment, remember?

Harry looked at Ron with a frown.

"I can't imagine Lupine giving a gift like this."

"What are you two laughing at?"

Hermione had just walked in wearing her nightgown and carrying Crookshanks, who didn't seem pleased with the tinsel cord around his neck.

"Don't put it here!" Ron said, scooping Scabbers out of the depths of the bed and into her pajama pocket.

"Whoa, Harry!" Who has sent it to you?

-I have no idea. She didn't have a card.

To his surprise, Hermione wasn't excited or intrigued. Rather, she shadowed her face from herself and bit her lip.

-What's happening to you? Ron asked.

"I don't know," Hermione said. But it's weird, don't you think? What I mean is that it's a magnificent broom, isn't it?

Ron sighed in exasperation:

"It's the best broom there is, Hermione," he assured.

So it must be very expensive...

"Probably cost more than all of Slytherin's brooms put together," Ron said, his face beaming.

"Well, who would send Harry something that expensive without even saying who he is?"

-And what else gives? Ron asked impatiently. Listen, Harry, can I take a ride on it? Can?

"I think no one should ride on that broom at the moment," he said.

Hermione.

Harry and Ron looked at her.

"What do you think Harry is going to do with her?" Sweep the floor? -asked

Ron.

But before Hermione could answer; Crookshanks, he jumped from Seamus's bed onto Ron's chest.

"GET HIM OUT OF HERE!" Ron bellowed.

"He doesn't look good, does he?" Harry observed.

It's the stress! Ron said. If that stupid ball of fur would leave her alone, she'd be fine!

At lunchtime they went down to the Great Dining Room and discovered that the tables had been pushed back against the walls, and that now there was only one table with twelve place settings in the middle of the room.

Professors Dumbledore, McGonagall, Snape, Sprout, and Flitwick were there, along with Filch, the janitor, who had shed his usual brown jacket and was wearing a musty old tailcoat. There were only three other students: two very nervous first years, and one second year from Slytherin, who was Sasuke.

-Happy Easter! said Dumbledore as Harry, Ron, and Hermione approached the table. Since we are so few, it seemed absurd to me to use the school tables. Sit down, sit down!

Harry, Ron and Hermione sat together at the end of the table.

"Surprise rockets!" said Dumbledore enthusiastically, handing Snape the end of a large silver one. Snape reluctantly caught it and yanked. There was a bang, and the rocket shot up, leaving behind it a large, pointy witch's hat with a stuffed vulture on the top.

-To eat! —She advised everyone, smiling.

As Harry helped himself to roast potatoes, the doors to the Great Hall opened again. It was Professor Trelawney, gliding toward them as if she were on wheels. Given the occasion, she had donned a green sequined dress that accentuated the giant dragonfly look of her.

"Sybill, what a pleasant surprise!" said Dumbledore, getting to his feet.

"I've been consulting the crystal ball, Headmaster," Professor Trelawney said in her farthest voice. And to my surprise, I have found myself abandoning my solitary lunch and joining you. Who am I to deny the designs of fate? I left the tower and came in haste, but please forgive me for being late.

"Of course," said Dumbledore, blinking. Let me pull you up a chair...

And he did, with his wand, make a chair come up through the air, which twirled a few times before slamming down between Professors Snape and McGonagall.

Professor Trelawney, however, did not sit down. Her huge eyes had wandered over the entire table and she suddenly gave a slight cry.

"I dare not, Mr. Director!" If I sit down, we'll be thirteen! Nothing gives worse luck! Never forget that when thirteen eat together, the first to rise is the first to die!

"We'll take our chances, Sybill," Professor McGonagall said impatiently.

Please sit down. The turkey gets cold.

"Do you want a leg, Sybill?"

Professor Trelawney ignored him. She opened her eyes again, took a look.

looked around and said:

"But where is my dear Professor Lupin?"

"She's had a relapse, I'm afraid," said Dumbledore, encouraging everyone to help themselves. It's a shame it happened on Christmas Day.

"But I'm sure you already knew that, Sybill.

"Of course I knew, Minerva," he said quietly. But I don't want to brag about knowing everything. I often act as if she were not in possession of the inner eye, so as not to make others nervous.

"That explains a lot," Professor McGonagall replied. Professor Trelawney raised her voice:

"If you're interested in knowing, I've seen that Professor Lupine will be leaving us soon."

He himself seems to understand that he has little time left. When I offered to see his fate in the crystal ball, he fled.

-I imagine.

"I doubt," Dumbledore observed, his voice cheerful but strong ending the conversation between Professors McGonagall and Trelawney, "that Professor Lupine is in any imminent danger." Severus, have you made him the potion again?

"Yes, Headmaster," Snape said.

"Good," said Dumbledore.

Professor Trelawney asked, "My dears! Which of the two got up first? Who?

"I don't know," Ron said, looking at Harry uneasily.

"I doubt it would make much of a difference," Professor McGonagall said coldly. Unless some madman with an ax is waiting at the door to kill the first one out of the hall.

Even Ron laughed. Professor Trelawney was upset.

"Happy, hip, Easter!" Password?

"'Vile Knave,'" said Ron.

"Same as you, sir!" Sir Cadogan exclaimed, Harry went straight to the bedroom, grabbed the Firebolt and the broomstick maintenance kit Hermione had given him for her birthday, and went downstairs with everything and began to see if she could do anything to the room. broom; but there were no crooked twigs to cut and the stick was already so shiny that it was useless to want to polish it more. He and Ron just sat and admired her from every angle until the portrait hole opened and Hermione appeared accompanied by Professor McGonagall.

He and Ron looked at her as they held the Firebolt. Hermione walked past her, sat down, picked up the first book she found and hid her face behind it.

"So that's it," said Professor McGonagall, wide-eyed, walking over to the fireplace and examining the Firebolt. Miss Granger just told me you've been sent a broom, Potter. Harry and Ron turned to Hermione. They could see his red forehead above the book, which was upside down.

-Can? asked Professor McGonagall. But she did not wait for the answer and she took the Firebolt from their hands. She examined it carefully, from one end to the other. Hmm...and it didn't come with a note, Potter? No card? No message of any kind?

"Nothing," Harry replied, as if he didn't understand.

"I see..." said Professor McGonagall. I'm afraid I'll have to take it with me; Potter.

-What what? Harry said, standing up suddenly. Because?

"We'll have to examine her to make sure she doesn't have any spells on her."

explained Professor McGonagall. Of course I'm no expert, but I'm sure Mrs Hooch and Professor Flitwick will take it out of her.

"Disassemble it?" Ron repeated. "It'll only take a few weeks," Professor McGonagall clarified. We'll return her to you when we're sure she's not haunted.

"There's nothing wrong with it," Harry said. His voice trembled. Frankly, Professor...

"You don't know that," Professor McGonagall observed kindly, "you won't know until you've flown in it, at least."

And I'm afraid that will be impossible until we're sure it hasn't been tampered with. I will keep you informed.

Harry stared at her, the tin of polish still in his hand. Ron turned to Hermione.

"Why did you run to Professor McGonagall?"

Hermione set the book aside. "Because I thought and Professor McGonagall agrees with me that the broom could have been sent to her by Sirius Black."

Harry and Ron had been angry with Hermione for going with the gossip to McGonagall, and decided not to speak to her.

He had owned the best broom in the world for a few hours, and because of Hermione, he didn't know if he would ever see her again. He was sure that nothing was wrong with the Firebolt, but what state would he be in after passing all the anti-spell tests?

Ron was also angry with Hermione. In his opinion, taking apart an entirely new Firebolt was a crime. Hermione, still convinced that she had done what she had to, began to avoid the common room.

He was sad in the library doing his homework, until he bumped into Sasuke who also goes to the library to research all the theory and then practice.

But when she apologized, she could see that she had been crying, Sasuke stopped her and asked her what was wrong.

But she refused saying that nothing was wrong with her.

Sasuke saw that she was leaving the library quickly, so he followed her, and took her pulling her to one of the towers of the castle that he knew beforehand was empty, and asked her again what was wrong.

She broke down and in tears began to tell him everything that had happened, Sasuke listened to her and then said.

You are excellent, I did not expect you to think that this would be one of the many ways to kill someone.

You know that if the broom was manipulated, Potter would die riding it, since it would not be difficult to enchant a broom, also to buy it, it is enough for him to manipulate someone with magic.

Since there is the Imperius Curse, one of the three Unforgivable Spells, casting such a spell is a direct ticket to Azkaban.

I'm sure you already read it in the library.

Hermione went cold, she hadn't thought such a spell existed.

Then Sasuke told him about the three Unforgivable Spells, Imperius, Cruciatus, Avada Kedavra.

After that they talked about the classes, Sasuke gave him his opinion that you are taking too many courses, that they will be useless, it shows on your face that you are covering too much, remember that you are human you need to rest properly, otherwise you will get sick.

Hermione didn't know what to say, since we're already halfway through the school year, I'm sure you already thought about dropping some courses right, knowing you a bit I deduce that Divination and Muggle Study.

Hermione was silent, not knowing what to say, it's true that she was thinking of dropping some courses but she didn't want to disappoint Professor McGonagall.

But she thought that Sasuke was right, she wasn't a robot.

After relaxing and breathing air she fell asleep due to all the exhaustion she had in her body.

3 hours later Hermione woke up with a start, she didn't know when she had fallen asleep, but her head was glued to Sasuke's shoulder who was reading a book; she turned totally red, apologized and ran away.

On the other hand, Sasuke went to Professor Lupine if he could teach him the Patronus, but Lupine refused saying that he had already promised to teach Potter, when I'm done with him I'll gladly teach you.

Sasuke accepted, but he was upset, in his mind it was because he didn't teach them both at the same time.

Returning to his common room, he met the head of his house Snape, he took a risk and asked him about the patronus and if he could teach him, he coldly told him:

That should be taught to you by your Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher, says Snape.

Sasuke says that the professor only has time for Potter.

Snape I see, let's go to my office I'll give you a few lessons but the result depends on you, I don't have the time available to teach you exclusively.

Sasuke accepts.

In Snape's office, the head of his house gives a briefing on the Patronus.

And he shows him the Spell Sasuke carefully observes the spell that is acquiring a form, but quickly disappears it, so that he does not identify the animal that is formed.

I think I got it now, says Sasuke in his mind.

Snape asks him to demonstrate.

Then Sasuke in his mind begins to search for his most precious memory, and it was when his father tells him that he is proud of him, when he achieved the great fireball jutsu.

Sasuke recites expentun PATRONUS, but only a white mist comes out.

It had already been a week and Sasuke's progress was slow regarding the patronus as he didn't have many happy memories.

January gave way to February without being noticed, lingering in the same glacial cold. The match against Ravenclaw was coming up, but Slytherin was confident of winning.

-------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------- --

Hermione, she took refuge in the library studying but she wasn't as sad as before, Professor McGonagall, Hagrid had told her that she did the right thing, that her friend's life was more important than a silly broom, but what mattered most to her was The shock was that Sasuke said those words to her first.

She spent her time with Sasuke talking about magic, about Muggle history, and about technological advances about whether there was interdimensional travel to other dimensions, but Hermione said that those topics are mostly covered in science fiction movies, but there are researchers Muggles who publish their research in scientific journals.

Sasuke was intrigued, in his mind he was thinking if the answer to return to his world was not in magic but in technology, when I finish the course I will do an investigation on this and visit those scientists, while I explore their memories with my Sharingan.

Hermione was complaining about Ron accusing Crookshanks of wanting to kill his rat.

Sasuke calms her down by saying that that rat is in its last days, I don't think it will live any longer, since the owner of the store said that these kinds of rats don't live long.

Hermione nodded.

Sasuke proposes to Hermione that she lend him Crookshanks, since he will most likely die soon, it would be best if he dies in peace, Hermione hesitates but accepts.

Sasuke went to the Slytherin common room with Crookshanks, and he was the smug one of the first years, some girls smug him to get close to Sasuke.

Several weeks passed and Sasuke always went out with Crookshanks, and took him to the library, shrunken due to his shrinking spell for Hermione to see, they kept talking about magic and technology.

Sasuke asked him what he knew about ninjas, not much since he only knew that they are from Japan.

But Hermione insisted that Sasuke explain how he managed to reduce Crookshank, Sasuke explained to her and she was able to do it herself.

Sasuke went out with Crookshank, to train him because he was very fat and thus get him in shape
