Part 6

Sirius backed away slightly.

" Maybe I better go," he said. Harry nodded dumbly. He couldn’t believe he had revealed Sirius’ identity to a mysterious person. Sirius turned back to a dog before running away. Harry sat on the rock in despair.

"Cheer up Harry." Hermione murmured " Maybe this person is only interested in you"

"Yeah, you just picked up a stalker, that’s all" Ron joked, trying to lighten the mood. He received glares from Harry and Hermione. "Sorry" he muttered.

"Should we head back to Hogsmeade?" Hermione ventured. Harry nodded a look of despair on his face. He staggered upright. They walked away from the message. As they rounded the corner Hermione turned around and headed back "I’ve forgotten my scarf! Won’t be a minute" she ran back to the rock. Ron looked at Harry in surprise.

 

"She didn’t bring a scarf!" Harry looked up in surprise.

"Lets head back! Quickly" They both turned and ran back to the rock. Hermione was standing nearby with a look of smug happiness on her face.

"Look!" She trilled happily. "The message has gone! See! My theory was correct!" Ron stared at Hermione in amazement

"Hermione! If your theory was true that means someone really did see Sirius" Hermione’s face fell.

"Oh" she said.

"Hermione, tell me, did you see anyone when you came back here?" Harry asked curiously. Hermione stared at him.

"Why would I have seen someone? Should I have? I thought it was only the message we were worried about." Ron and Harry exchanged glances.

"Lets…head back to school" Ron muttered. As they walked back through Hogsmeade Harry stopped and looked around.

"I forgot, I need to go into the post office. Ron, come with me." Hermione stepped forward.

"What about me?"

"You just wait here. We won’t be long." Harry and Ron headed to the post office. They stepped inside and Harry glanced back. "Did she follow us?" Ron looked out of a window.

"No, she’s still standing there." Harry looked at Ron

"Well?"

"Yeah, I know. That wasn’t Hermione!"
