The Unexpected

💚20🖤

Pukah here: Thank you all so much for your patience. As you all know, school is about to start this upcoming Monday. I hope you understand. It's going to be a while to update. I will, however, have time after school if I(the key work IF) I finish my work in class instead of taking it home and doing it.

Pukah: Sure, there are weekends, but I love writing and reading. So yeah. Thank you so much for the readers for reading and for the votes for each of my stories. Thank you all so much🤗🤗🤗🤗

Hesperia quickly left before Filch, and his cat caught her under her cloak. She didn't want a repeat of the first year again. She saw Hagrid and tap on him.

"Oh, yeh, scare' me 'esperia," Hagrid said, patting his chest.

"Sorry, just wanted to know where is it exacly are you taking me, Hagrid?" Hesperia asked.

"Wouldn' be righ' if I tol' yah tha', now would it, 'esperia. Migh' find yeh sneakin' out here on yer own one nigh'," Hagrid replied giddily.

Hesperia follows behind Hagrid down into the eerie darkness of the forest. She hears men shouting orders and casting spells. Then hears an ear-splitting roar followed after the casting and yelling. Hesperia gasps, knowing what creature makes that sound.

Hagrid grin and gestures Hesperia to step forward. A clearing comes into view where a group of wizards surround four giant slatted cages. Inside each cage, huge mother dragons rage violently against them.

"THIEVES! MY BABIES! GIVE THEM BACK TO ME!," a Hungarian Horntail cried out.

"Hagrid, those are mother dragons. They are having use go against powerful and most deadliest mother dragons," Hesperia whispered.

"Oh, dear," Hagrid said, realizing how bad that is. He understood what Hesperia was trying to say.

Hesperia turns to see Madam Maxime and Headmaster Igor. 'Of course, they would be here. I hope Charlie is here,' Hesperia thought. Hesperia wince at the agony and angry cry of the mother dragons for their eggs.

Hesperia left after she bid Hagrid goodbye. She quickly made her way to the common room and pants. Ron, Hermione, Ginny, Neville, and Evans(Dudley) have her sit down.

"THEY ARE HAVING US FACE MOTHER DRAGONS!," Hesperia shouted.

The siblings' breath hitch as they froze on the spots. They know all about mother dragons from Charlie, and this can't be good. This means they have to get eggs from the mother dragons, and mother dragons are known to be fierce and protective of their eggs. When taken, mother dragons go rogue for their young one.

Hesperia couldn't help but feel her stomach twist. The thought of losing one's child is something she didn't want to see or experience it. She thought of having a child by birth or by adoption, but taking children was the worst way to lose a child.

Because taking them from mothers is where they could not think, speak, or sleep. They would worry and hope for their child to return. Hesperia and the others went to sleep that night.

Hesperia quickly got ready and left the common room with her siblings towards the courtyard and saw Cedric. Cedric noticed her worry and frightened expression and quickly shot up to keep her steady.

"Hey, hey, breathe, Hesp, breathe," Cedric soothed her by rubbing her arms.

"Dragons," Hesperia burst out.

"What," Justin, the hufflepuff that was about to be killed by a snake during the second year, shot up with a shock face.

"The first task they are having us go through are dragons. But not just any dragons. Mother dragons," Hesperia breathe out.

Cedric and his friends froze, trying to process all of this. Now they know this is not going to go well, especially with Mother Dragons. Everyone learned about mother dragons from either books, experts, or in class.

"I saw both the Headmaster and Headmistress of Drumtrang and Beauxbatons in the forest, so they informed Viktor and Delacour," Hesperia said

"Okay, but the problem is. I don't think we've been taught to fight against a Mother Dragons before," Cedric told Hesperia.

"Not if you try to use the accio spell to bring whatever object it is and if it doesn't work, try to transfigure an object of a live animal that would keep them distracted," Hesperia suggested.

Cedric knows for a fact that it's his specialty when it comes to transfiguration and charms. He also knows Hesperia is very good with charms, curses, hexes, and jinxes. It was why many boys sometimes not go near her if they ever try to make a move on her.

"Thanks, Potter," Cedric's friends thanked.

"Just because I'm forced to be champion doesn't mean I can't help a family friend," Hesperia smiled.

"We have to get to studying. Good luck, Cedric. Be safe," Ron nods.

Hermione, Ginny, Neville, Fred, and George also gave their good luck to Cedric to give motivation of some sort. They left with Ron and Hesperia. That was until they heard Malfoy.

"Why so giddy, Pottah?" he taunted.

Hesperia and the others look to see Draco up in a tree.

"Draco Malfoy, are you crazy! I don't care if you are a big boy, but this is too far. Get down from there," Hesperia scolded.

Draco blush.

"NO!," Draco said, sticking his tongue out.

"Malfoy, I mean it, you'll lose your balance and get hurt. GET DOWN," Hesperia shouted.

Viktor, Vladislav, Dimitar, Nikola, Ivan, Damyan, Maria, Adelina, Daria, and Gloria were walking to the courtyard to see a very amusing scene. they even saw Ms. Mcgonagall and Severus Snape are finding this amusing as they try not to laugh.

Draco suddenly hiss like an angry ferret, and Hesperia sighs, shaking her head.

"Dracogis Lucian Malfoy, you get down this instant," Hesperia said.

"Don't make me write to your mother," Hesperia added.

Draco pale and quickly have Crabbe and Goyle help him down. Hesperia flick his forehead, making him pout as he rubs his forehead.

"Behave," Hesperia scolded.

She then walks away with her siblings towards Viktor, Vladislav, Dimitar, Nikola, Ivan, Damyan, Maria, Adelina, Daria, and Gloria to leave for potions class.
