I knock at the giant door of Hagrid's Hut, behind the door, I hear a dog bark and a booming voice come said, "I am coming, hol'd on for a sec." As I am waiting I look around and see a crossbow and a pair of galoshes outside the front door, must be Hagrid's equipment for going into the Forbidden Forest.
The door opens, and Hagrid face pops out from behind it, "Oh, it is you Caelum, come in" Hagrid said with his giant hand waving me to come inside.
I have been going to Hagrid's Hut on the weekends ever since we meet in the hallways during my first month in Hogwarts.
"Back, Fang," Hagrid said to the massive black dog that was blocking the entryway. Hagrid was able to move the dog by the collar and I was able to come inside Hagrid's house. There was only one room inside. Hams and pheasants were hanging from the ceiling, a copper kettle was boiling on the open fire, and in the corner stood a massive bed with a patchwork quilt over it.
"Make yerselves at home," said Hagrid, letting go of Fang, who tries to bound straight at me but I gave him one stare and say in a low voice that only he can hear, "Did you already forget what happened last time you tried to tackle me."
The first time I came to Hagrid's Hut, Fang tried to tackle me to the ground and lick me, but I thought it was a dark creature from the Forbidden Forest trying to kill so I used the most powerful spell I know so far, the Tempest Jinx, the same one I used on Mrs Norris.
Fang comes to a sudden stop and a look of remembrances crosses his face, that is what it seems to me on his dog face, and he runs behind Hagrid. Like Hagrid, Fang is clearly not as fierce as he looks.
"I do not know how you do that but anyone that comes near this Hut, he always tackles them to the ground and starts licking their face," Hagrid says as he pours boiling water into a large teapot and putting rock cakes onto a plate.
I give an awkward chuckle, "No idea," I say but I am just glad that Fang has good magical resistance.
Hagrid places some rock cakes in from of me, which look like shapeless lumps with raisins on it, I give my thanks to Hagrid, but I do not even dare to entertain the idea of putting one in my mouth since I learned the hard way that these things can break any men's teeth.
I make light conversation with Hagrid about my classes, school work, and teachers then Hagrid talks about the magical creatures he deals with and I listen up to and make sure to take everything in he says. People tend to have the wrong view about Hagrid most of the time and think he is just a lumbering idiot but if anything he is the opposite, the thing Hagrid excels at is magical creatures, his method are way ahead of anything found in books and I would even go as far to say he is the best magizoologist in Europe.
"Anyways Hagrid I was reading some diary entries from wizards and witches that travelled the world and went to some unexplored places and the thing I found in these diary entries is that they think that magical creatures above rank XXXXX exist, what do you think about that?" I ask the question that I have been burning to found out about.
I may not show it, with being calm, collected, and what not, but there is still that little boy in me and what could not awaken it any more than finding out of hidden powerful magical creatures no one knows about.
Hagrid drops the teacup he has in his hand as soon as he hears my question and freezes, then as quick as that he remembers himself and picks up the broken teacup from the floor and grabs a rag to clean up the mess, "I know nothi'ng of those creatures in the Forbidden Forest," Hagrid says.
I shack my head, Hagrid is not the best of liars, "I never that those magical creatures were in the Forbidden Forest, Hagrid."
Hagrid looks at me for a while and sighs then he says, "You, Caelum are awfully clever, anyways I never told anyone this not even Dumbledore, so do not go running around telling everyone what I tell you, okay?" I nod my head and skoote my chair closer to Hagrid's.
"Even if you do tell anyone, no one will believe for that matter since I never really saw them, just glances or clues of them. Right as you know the Forbidden Forest is massive with all kinds of magical creatures, nobody knows all its secrets about, including me and I have been wandering it for years now, I think not even Dumbledore knows all the secrets that forest holds." Hagrid takes a pause to wipe away Fang's drool from his coat and continues on,
"So one day, I went to see a friend of mine that lives in the Forbidden Forest, that was when I saw it, a white tail as massive as a hill and as soon as that it disappeared into a giant cave as wide as Hogwarts. There was this other time I found flames that where burning corpses of powerful magical creatures and I tried to burn it out so that it does not spread but no amount of water could even smiter it. Another time I saw some dead trees, yes, deader than they usually are and in the middle of those trees was a single massive black feather. Finally, I saw a hole so wide and deep, I throw many rocks in it and for hours I did not hear it hit the ground and around the hole was golden furs and claw marks, so something must have dug that hole."
