Inside The Case | Fantastic Beasts & Where to Find Them [ 1 ]

Disappearing case
------

It's Halloween tomorrow and it's been almost two months since the Twins told me about asking Hagrid

I asked him.. and he said he would help feed it but doesn't want any funny business with him

Hagrid has been a big help but he said that if he was going to help the only time I was to go into the case was when I was to feed Azuree and the other animals

I have done some research in my great grandfather's book about the other animals and they are too interesting

I've gotten top marks in every 'magical creatures' test that I have had. And the other subjects very close

"Willow.. Willow.. WILLOW!!" Someone screams in my ear

I jolt up and almost fall out of the bed but catch myself

"What, what, what!" I say rubbing my eyes

When my eyes unblur from the rubbing I see a panicky Luna in front

"Look under your bed!" She says quickly

"What, why can't you just tell me?"

"Just look!"

I roll my eyes and lean over the side of my bed looking under it

My eyes widen and I'm stunned

I pull myself back up and look at Luna wide eyed

"Where is my case!" I question her

"That's why I was waking you up" Luna says whacking her hands around the place

I put one hand in my hair and the other to my mouth and start biting my nails

"It had to have been a Ravenclaw no one else knows the password" Luna states

I nod "but who? And why" and look at her

"Don't know but we better find out" she says reaching for her robes

I nod, grab my clothes and run into the bathroom to get changed

I'm starting to panic, no one knows about the dragon apart from Luna, Hagrid the Twins and my brother

I would have suspected the Twins to have done it as a harmless prank but they don't know the password into Ravenclaw.

Hagrid just wants to keep the animals alive and he probably wouldn't fit in the room even if he tried

Luna would never do that to me, she knows how much I care about this case

And my brother Rolf I don't know he will be the first I interrogate because brothers will be brothers

I come out of the bathroom and walk down the stairs into the main area of the common room

As I'm on the last step a girl in my year steps into the  common room

It's Courtney Pippin and she looks out of breath

"Hey Courtney!" I smile and wave to her while walking over
