{Ok out of palce but it is season  of attack on Titan opening, at it slaps so I grace your ears too}

but season 4 is wild 

"I'll be back at dawn," said Filch, "for what's left of them," he added nastily, and he turned and started back toward the castle, his lamp bobbing away in the darkness.

Malfoy now turned to Hagrid.

"I'm not going in that forest," he said, Neville rolled his eyes at the display he was scared for his life.

 "Yeh are if yeh want ter stay at Hogwarts," said Hagrid fiercely. "Yeh've done wrong an' now yeh've got ter pay fer it. "

"But this is servant stuff, it's not for students to do. I thought we'd be copying lines or something if my father knew I was doing this, he'd--"

"-- tell yer that's how it is at Hogwarts," Hagrid growled. "Copyin' lines! What good's that ter anyone? Yeh'll do summat useful or yeh'll get out. If yeh think yer father'd rather you were expelled, then get back off ter the castle an' pack. Go on. "

Draco gave the half-giant a scandalized face, he only hears no from Vivienne and wasn't expecting it here.

  "Right then," said Hagrid, "now, listen carefully, 'cause it's dangerous what we're gonna do tonight, an' I don' want no one takin' risks. Follow me over here a moment. "

He led them to the very edge of the forest. Holding his lamp up high, he pointed down a narrow, winding earth track that disappeared into the thick black trees. A light breeze lifted their hair as they looked into the forest.

"Right then," said Hagrid, "now, listen carefully, 'cause it's dangerous what we're gonna do tonight, an' I don' want no one takin' risks. Follow me over here a moment. "

He led them to the very edge of the forest. Holding his lamp up high, he pointed down a narrow, winding earth track that disappeared into the thick black trees. A light breeze lifted their hair as they looked into the forest.

"Look there," said Hagrid, "see that stuff shinin' on the ground? Silvery stuff? That's unicorn blood. There's a unicorn in there bin hurt badly by summat. This is the second time in a week. I found one dead last Wednesday. We're gonna try an' find the poor thing. We might have ter put it out of its misery. "

 "And what if whatever hurt the unicorn finds us first?" said Malfoy, unable to keep the fear out of his voice. "That will be a plus for me," Neville said grimly. 

Causing Hermione to elbow him in the side. Neville cringes in pain, holding his side hissing.  " Hell lay of the bull shark testosterone, you have permanently altered my ribs, you should be a cyropracter for hunchbacks seriously you can commit seppuku(1) with an sowing needle," He said in his usual extra voice. 

She rolled her eyes as Hagrid continued  "There's nothin' that lives in the forest that'll hurt yeh if yer with me or Fang," said Hagrid. "With all the crazy crap that happens in this school I did not belive that," Neville thought 

"An' keep ter the path. Right, now, we're gonna split inter two parties an' follow the trail in diff'rent directions. There's blood all over the place, it must've bin staggerin' around since last night at least. " Hagrid warned. 

  "I want Fang," said Malfoy quickly, looking at Fang's long teeth.

"All right, but I warn yeh, he's a coward," said Hagrid.  "So me, Neville, an' Hermione'll go one way an' Draco, Neville, an' Fang'll go the other. Now, if any of us finds the unicorn, we'll send up green sparks, right? Get yer wands out an' practice now, that's it an' if anyone gets in trouble, send up red sparks, an' we'll all come an' find yehso , be careful  let's go. "

The forest was black and silent. A little way into it they reached a fork in the earth path, and Neville, Hermione  and Hagrid took the left path while Malfoy, and Fang took the right.
