Siriusly, Voldy? *Sequel to Why? Because of Them.*

Chapter 41: And the All Nighter Begins. (not the whole chapter)

  I walked through the hallways of Hogwarts still, hoping to finally get some fresh air today. All day in the stuffy classroom has really drained my energy, but I can't get to sleep just yet. A full moon today will keep many awake, including my good friend Remus, and I've got a good feeling something bad is about to happen. I sighed for a mental relief and kept walking, closer and closer to the main doors. Once I pushed them open, I felt free, more free than ever...at least in adulthood. I walked faster, feeling my shoe step onto a patch of grass every time. I looked up to a gray, cloudy sky, which explains the throbbing in my head. The air was hot and it was horribly humid. I felt my already frizzy hair, but I honestly couldn't care less. I let myself focus on the surroundings around me: the Black Lake, "my" tree and the Quidditch field. It flooded in the memories, of course, but like with my hair, I didn't really care. What use is caring, anyway? 

As my depressed thoughts consumed me, I realize I've begun to get close to Hagrid's hut. I squinted a bit to see a few figures enter his hut, one holding an ax. And then it hit me. Buckbeak. I haven't helped Hagrid well enough to prepare for the case with Buckbeak and the Malfoys, which means the executioner is here. I must walk in to see them, or at least try to help Hagrid make sure that Buckbeak will not be killed. I wouldn't allow Lucius to do this. I threw the potion into my bag and was about to walk in, before seeing Harry, Hermione, Autumn and Ron run out. 

I looked at them, as they did me, but we all had a mutual understanding: keep quiet. we'll talk later. 

I opened the door to the hut to see the five men looking at me. 

Hagrid looked like a million emotions ran through his mind. He seemed relieved, annoyed, sad and yet happy at the same time. 

"What are you doing here, Sapphire?" Hagrid spoke in his gruffy voice. 

"I was just, uh, hoping to visit." I said, and checked at my bag. Is the Wolfsbane showing? What if they knew about Remus?

"This isn't your matter or business." Lucius smirked at me. 

"Sorry, Malfoy, I was just coming to visit my good friend. Don't mind me. Good morning, Mr. Fudge, Headmaster Dumbledore. How are you?" I asked politely, hoping they let me stay. 

"We are both doing well. Here, have a seat." Fudge gestured to an empty chair. I shot a look to Malfoy, in hopes the others didn't notice.
