Damn Spiders
Following Harry outside Hagrid's home you mentally cringed as the trail of spiders scuttled into the forest. Silently watching Harry move to follow, you and Ron hesitate. “What are you doing?” Ron asked as you patted your leg, getting fang to follow you.
“You heard Hagrid. Follow the spiders.” Harry answered turning to the trial of spiders. “Harry you know I don't like the Dark Forest. What I'd singing like lay year happens?” You asked eyeing the forest fearfully remembering what happened to you the year before.
Scratching his head “I don't believe something like Larry yet will happen again. And look at it this way you'll have both me and Ron, the with you.” Harry said lightly patting your shoulder as you mentality groaned but nodded as you started to follow Harry.
“Why spiders? Why couldn't it be 'Follow the butterflies'?” Ron muttered meaning you quietly agree and loop your arm in his.
Watching Fang lead the way you jumped and held Ron's arm tighter when a loud growl like sound came a few yards away from you. “There's something moving over there... something big.” Harry said holding the lantern in his hand up to try and see what it was. Just as a blaze of light broke through the trees, blinding you and the boys.
“Harry!...it's our car!” Ron said surprisedly at the dirty and feral Ford Anglia. Gasping at it. “What did you two do to it?” You asked making Harry shake his head. “We didn't do anything!” He said as Ron took a few steps closer to the car.
“It's been here the whole time! Look at it. The Forest has turned it wild.” Ron muttered watching the headlights dim. Mumbling “Poor thing.” Under your breath you followed Harry as he said. “C'mon, we don't want to lose the trail.”
Walking for what seemed like forever you watched the spiders stream toward a dark opening in a mass of large tree roots. “Harry, I don't like this. I don't like this at all.” Ron murmured making the green eyed boy shush him quickly as he got closer to the opening.
“Can, can I stay out here?” You asked feeling just as uncomfortable as Ron just as he piped up. “Better yet can we go back now?” Feeling his blood run cold at the millions of little spiders crawling and hanging in and around the entrance. Watching Harry step into the mouth of the cavern you shut your eyes for a second before following him in while pulling Ron in with you.
Get to the center of the spider dwelling you swallowed nervously at all of the gross and foran sounds when large crashing started coming your way. “Who is it? Hagrid is that you?” An old sounding voice asked making you grab Harry's arm frigidly making him whisper don't panic. As a large spider came out of hiding, making you step back to hold Ron instead.
“We're friends of Hagrid's! And you...you're Aragog, aren't you?” Harry asked making the arachnid get a small nod. “Yes, Hagrid has never sent men into our hollow before.” Aragog said seemingly studying the the three of you, as you stepped forward. “He's in trouble. The schools been having repeated attacks. They think Hagrids the cause of it. Because they think he opened the Chamber of Secrets. Like before.”
You said quickly ignoring Ron as he repeatedly nudged your side. Just as Aragog yelled “That's a lie! Hagrid never opened the Chamber of Secrets!” making you flinch and turn to Ron, who in turn carefully pointed at the spiders that were slowly starting to circle the three of you.
Letting a squeak out you turned to Barry and lightly tugged his sleeve as he spoke. “But if Hagrid never... that means you're not the monster.” He said pulling his sleeve away from you to focus on what Aragog was saying. “The monster was born in the castle. I came from a distant land, in the pocket of a traveler.” He started as you and Ron turn to watch two crawling silhouettes inch forward seemingly watching your group.
Muttering Harry's name fightenly you this time poked his back. Making him lightly take your hand to hold it, don't it would calm you as he continued to affirm with the spider. “But if you're not the monster, what did kill that girl fifty years ago?”
He asked gatting Aragog to shake his head. “We do not speak of it! It is an ancient creature we spiders fear above all others.” He hissed making Harry press for more answers as you watched a spider crouche on a branch above you, causing you to grip Harry's hand tighter.
“I never saw any part of the castle but the cupboard in which Hagrid kept me. The girl was discovered in a bathroom. When I was accused, Hagrid brought me here.” You heard Aragog say as though and Ron watch as spiders in high and low branches slowly drop downward on thin threads. making you turn harry to you and Ron forcefully.
“What!?” He asked annoyedly watching Ron point upward getting Harry to look up and pale, before slowly turning back to Aragog. Well...thank you. We'll just go.c harry said getting you and Ron to back up.
“Go? I think not. My sons and daughters do not harm Hagrid, on my command. But I cannot deny them fresh meat when it wanders so willingly into our midst. Goodbye, friends of Hagrid.” Aragog said allowing his children to start pouring out of everywhere.
“Can we panic now?” Ron muttered as every sized spider you could imagine moved forward. Spinning around to try and find a way out as the spiders started closing in. Scrambling to get your wand you were trying to think of a spell that could help as harry smacked a spider away from you with the lantern, when a familiar growling sound made the three of you turn to see the Ford Anglia came thundering over the rim and down the slope, knocking spiders out of its path.
As it screeched to a halt in front of you while opening its doors. Quickly jumping into the back with fang as Harry and Ron took the front you screamed as multiple spiders jumped on the car, as Ron hit the gas, and threw the car into reverse.
Making the spiders scatter, as the car zooms backwards out of the hollow. Panting as the three of you tried calming down when a spider suddenly tried pulling Ron from the car. Screaming you tried pulling Ron away from the spider, when Harry suddenly pointed his wand and yelled arania Exumai, making a blinding flash of white light blast the spider off of Ron and away from the car.
“Thanks for that.” Ron did breathing heavily Harry nodded muttering “Don't mention it.” As the three of you heard an army is spiders approaching. Getting Ron to slam his foot on the pedal puts sending the car speed away, getting the spiders to follow after.
Hugging Fang for dead life as the car zipped through the forest you screamed at Ron to try and get the Anglia flying. When Ron tried that the flying gear was jammed. Making you lean over the seat to help force the gear to move along with Harry. Screaming as a large tarantula reared up, ready to kill, just as the gear shifted forward. Sending the Anglia up and the car flies over a fallen tree and spider clipping the back end make you bounce over the seat and fall forward next to Harry.
Flying back to Hagrid's home Ron roughly landed the Anglia as it opened its doors, so you all could get out. Lightly petting the hood of the car you quietly thanked it before turning to Ron. “Follow the spiders'! Follow the spiders'! If Hagrid ever gets out of Azkaban, I'll kill hima I mean, what was the point of sending us in there? What have we found out?”
He yelled watching as the Anglia drove back into the forest as Harry turned to the red head. “We know one thing. Hagrid never opened the Chamber of Secrets. He was innocent.” Harry said making you nod. “We need to figure out who really opened the Chamber of Secrets. But it's late we should get back to our dorms before we get caught.” You said getting the boys to agree with you.
