A Harry Potter Adventure

You walk to the front door of Hagrid's hut and knock.

The door opens and Hagrid stands before you looking very solemn.

"Hey Hagrid," you begin. "I'm sorry if I've come at a bad time. We were wondering if Ron might be here."

"Eh, 'ts allright," he replies. "Ron is here. Come on in."

You and Hermione follow Hagrid into the hut and find Ron sitting at the table.

You both sit with him as Hagrid begins to explain his low spirits.

"Ron an' I was jus' talkin about Dorey. That's what I've decided to call the Phoenix I have out back. She's not doin well, 'arry. Not well at all. I'm not too sure that she's gonna make it."

The three of you look at each other feeling more than just a little uncomfortable as Hagrid puts his face in his hands and begins to cry.

Hagrid lifts his hands from his face and wipes away the tears from his cheeks as he pulls himself together.

"Excuse my rudeness," Hagrid states. "Let me get you guys some tea."

As Hagrid turns and leaves the room, Ron begins to speak.

"He's been like this all morning. I asked him where the Phoenix came from, and he said that Dorey fell right out of the sky while he was in Knockturn Alley buying your birthday gift. Strange, isn't it, that Dorey fell right into one of the most creepiest places."

"Yeah," you reply, "Whatever made it sick must've been somewhere close by when it fell."

Hagrid walks back into the room carrying a steaming tea kettle.

You and Hermione both explain to Ron and Hagrid about what Hermione has learned from her book about Phoenix's.

"I don't understand," Hagrid begins. "Dorey seems so harmless. Who would want to go and hurt her like that?"

The three of you just look at each other as no one has an answer to give Hagrid.

"Well," Hagrid continues, "not much we can do about it now anyways. I was just getting ready to go and check on her. You guys wanna come?"
