The Hippogriff Class
Hagrid led his class into the woods for the Care of Magical Creatures lesson. Harry felt nervous and jumpy; he wondered what beast his half-giant friend had in store for them. At last they stopped at a clearing, and Harry witnessed one of the most magnificent creatures he’d ever seen: it was as big as a horse, with white and silver feathers and fur, and sported wings, a horselike tail, a bird’s head, a bird’s front talons and the rear hooves of an equine. What is that…? Harry wondered in awe. “This,” Hagrid began, “Is Buckbeak, my Hippogriff.” He then went on to explain Hippogriffs, and asked if anyone would like to volunteer to ride him. All the members of the class stepped back in fear – all except Harry. He glanced to the right and saw a girl – a Ravenclaw, by her robes – standing beside him. Wow, she’s brave. “Please can I?” she begged. Hagrid looked from her to the Gryffindor boy. “I think Harry should have a go this time, Zara,” he said. “You’re welcome to ride Buckbeak here next time I include him in a lesson.” The girl, Zara, turned and walked back into the crowd with a dark look on her face. My personal preference for riding Buckbeak would have to be her, but oh well… Harry followed Rubeus’s instructions as to how to greet a Hippogriff. Suddenly, after Harry bowed, Buckbeak snorted with uncertainty and reared up, wings flapping slightly. In a momentary panic Harry spun around, just in time to see the girl from before, Zara, fearfully grasp the hand of the girl next to her - Luna Lovegood, another Ravenclaw. The blonde student looked just as worried. “Harry!” Hagrid’s voice cut through the young wizard’s distraction, and he turned back to his teacher. Buckbeak seemed calm now; Harry breathed a sigh of relief. Later, after Harry’s exhilirating ride on Buckbeak, he jumped off the Hippogriff and returned to the crowd, where his friends congratulated him. As Hermione hugged Harry, he noticed Zara, her brown hair flowing in the breeze, staring at Buckbeak. Her chocolate-coloured eyes then darted toward where Draco, Crabbe and Goyle were talking. Zara bit her lip and appeared to be clenching her teeth. She then looked back at the Hippogriff and muttered something. It bent its head slightly, as if accepting a challenge. A twig snapped under the tanned girl’s foot, and Draco jumped and glanced in her direction. Unaware, Zara continued holding eye contact with the beast, then broke it off suddenly and walked away in a somewhat proud fashion. The obnoxious blonde boy’s gaze followed her, and then he got up and strode toward the Hippogriff. “Can’t be too hard to train this thing,” he announced, and walked up to the Hippogriff. Just then, it reared up, screeched and kicked Draco in the arm. He fell to the ground yelling in agony. “Owwwwwww! That vile beast! Someone help me!” As Hagrid went over and picked Draco up, Harry remembered the Ravenclaw student who had been making eye contact with Buckbeak. He noticed her giggling at Malfoy’s injury and attempting to cover it up with a gloved hand. Luna, still standing at Zara’s side, just looked on in utter awe. The next day Harry stood in a hallway looking out onto the courtyard, practicing a spell. Accio stone! Nothing happened to the small rock lying on the ledge beside him. ''Grrrr! I must not have enough concentration…'' “Harry!” Hermione’s voice sounded behind him. He turned to see her with a couple of textbooks in hand. “I’ve gotta tell you –“ “STUPID RAT!” the pair heard Draco yelling from up the hall, and they both whipped around to see the boy, one arm in a sling, chasing someone. She stopped, out of breath, and Draco managed to pin her to the stone wall. “Own up!” he said angrily; Harry recognized his victim as Zara, the Ravenclaw from the Care of Magical Creatures class yesterday. Her eyes were wide and she was panting hard, from fear and tiredness. “Get off me! I didn’t do anything! Go bully some other kid!” she yelped. ''Zara’s lying! She must have somehow instructed Buckbeak to attack Draco, and I can see why. That was horribly risky though!'' Harry ran up and pulled Draco off, flinging him to the ground with unexpected strength. “How dare you attack her, Malfoy!” he spat. Harry looked at Zara’s grateful face for a moment, then turned and hurried back to Hermione. Draco stood up shakily, eyes narrowed with fury. The girl took off, barreling into Cho Chang, who had been staring at them. “Come on!” Zara hissed, and the girls raced away. Malfoy didn’t even try to follow them; instead he simply turned and stomped away with an annoyed expression. “Wow,” Hermione whispered. “That’s not something you see every day. Well done, Harry - though don't think Draco won't get you back for that." He gulped, but remained where he was, gazing at the wooden door where Zara and Cho had disappeared.
