Boggart in the Wardrobe

Krestena's POV

As predicted Draco milked his injury for all it's worth. In Potions he sat behind Harry and Ron. So Snape had to get Ron and Harry to prepare his potion ingredients. Ron chopped his daisy roots badly while chopping his perfectly. Snape had them switch roots and Ron had to chop the others again. Then Harry had to skin Draco's shrivelfig. After class I skipped lunch wanting to hangout with my uncle before my first class with him.

"So what's on the agenda today uncle?" I ask as I lean back in my chair feet on the table.

"A practical lesson today in the teachers lounge" he states. "Get your feet off the table" he scolds me gently and I do so. "Has your class done a practical lesson before?" he asks.

"Nope, unless you count the time Lockhart released Cornish Pixies in the classroom. Then left us alone to round them up" I say shrugging. Just then the rest of the class entered the room.

"Good afternoon, today there will be a practical lesson. So you'll only need your wands" Uncle Remus tells them. Everyone gets excited as the few that had taken out their books put them back in their bags. "Right then, please follow me" he tells us leaving the room and we follow.

"Do you know what he has planned?" Hermione and Harry ask me.

"Not a clue" I tell the smiling. We bump into Peeves along the way as he was sticking gum in the keyhole of one of Filch's broom cupboards.

"Loony loony Lupin" he sings. The class look on confused, Peeves usually shows some respect to teachers. Everyone looked at my uncle to see what he'd do, but he just smiles still. I haven't seen him this happy and cheerful in ages.

"I'd take that gum out of the keyhole if I were you Peeves" he says pleasantly. "Mr Filch won't be able to get his brooms" he states. But Peeves ignores him, and blows a raspberry instead. Making Uncle Remus sigh as he takes out his wand turning to us. "This is a useful little spell, watch closely" he tells us. "Waddiwasi" he says pointing his wand at Peeves. Like a bullet the gum shot out of the keyhole and up Peeves left nostril. He flew away cursing as some of us laughed.

"Cool sir" Dean says smiling in amazement.

"Thank you Dean" Uncle says putting his wand away. "Shall we proceed?" he asks and we do so. I could tell everyone had more respect for him now. Not just for what he did to Peeves, but by calling us by our first names. We reach the staff room and he holds the door open for us.

Snape was there and made a comment about Neville and Hermione. Us Gryffindors glared at him as he left the room. We approached a wardrobe and Uncle Remus asked if any of us knew what was inside. "That's a boggart" Seamus states.

"Very good Seamus, now can anyone tell me what a boggart looks like?" Uncle asks.

"No one knows" Hermione says appearing out of nowhere. She'd just had Arithmancy and I was to do that after this lesson. As DADA and Arithmancy are on at the same time. "Boggarts are shape-shifters and take the form of what will ever scare a person the most" Hermione explains.

"Couldn't of put it better myself" uncle says smiling. "Now when it is released, it'll take the form of what we fear most. But we have an advantage before we begin, can anyone see it?" he asks. Harry raises his hand and Uncle Remus nodded to him.

"Because there is so many of us, it won't know want to turn into" Harry says.

"Exactly, which is why it is best to have company when dealing with a boggart" Uncle Remus states. "The charm to repel a boggart is simple, but requires force of mind. You see what really finishes a boggart is laughter. So you must make it take a form you find amusing" he explains. "Now let's practice the charm first without wands please, Riddikulus" he instructs. We do so.

He then had us think of our worst fears and how to make it funny. Before having Neville demonstrate first. His boggart turned into Professor Snape, who he made wear his grandmother's clothes. We all laugh as we line up and I am behind Harry. Five people had a go before it reached Harry.

But my uncle stands in front of him shouting "here!" The boggart turns into a full moon and he says "Riddikulus." Then had Neville come forward to finish it off. Uncle Remus gave everyone who tackled the boggart five points, ten to Neville for facing it twice. Then gave Dean, Harry and Hermione five points for answering his questions at the start of the lesson. I hide in a cupboard after leaving the classroom and used my time turner. Then headed to Arithmancy where I sat beside Hermione.
