The weather today was fine, and many of the Hogwarts students, after lunch, opted to go out into the open space by the Black Lake and sunbathe.
This was prompted by Fish, as the cat went out in the sun whenever the weather was good, and over time many of the students picked up the habit.
It was a pleasure to lounge on the grass in the warm sunshine on an afternoon when the weather had not yet warmed up.
As the group gathered in twos and threes, chatting in the sunshine in the clearing, someone suddenly pointed to the sky in the direction of the Forbidden Forest and shouted, "Look, there seems to be something flying down from the Forbidden Forest!"
"It's Fish on a Pegasus or some other magical animal, what's all the fuss about?".
The others looked on with disdain, it wasn't the first time they had seen this, they had seen it before.
"No! That thing doesn't look like an animal!"
The boy kept shouting, he was a young wizard from a pureblood family, although he had seen cars before, he couldn't recognize them right away.
Only then did they look up into the sky and see a square, black, lime green box with a black bottom flying towards them at high speed.
"That's a car?!" exclaimed one of the half-breed wizards in surprise.
Immediately after, Ron Weasley's voice rang out again in the clearing.
"Isn't that the car Harry and I drove here when we started school?"
Everyone was briefly surprised to hear Ron's words, then quickly calmed down.
It seems Fish had found Ron's lost flying car in the Forbidden Forest, so there was nothing to be surprised about.
There was even time to talk about it.
"Fish can drive a car!"
Little did they know at the time, the Weasley twins were there too.
"Magical cars should be different from ordinary cars, right?" A young half-breed wizard scratched his head and said, "I heard that in the Muggle world you have to pass a test and get something called a driver's license before you can drive a car on the street."
"That's great... I'd like to take a ride in a flying car sometime."
Lee Jordan looked enviously at the cars in the sky and then asked Ron, who was standing, "That must be fun."
"Sure it would!"
Tickled, Ron immediately talked about his experience when he and Harry arrived at school in a flying car, ignoring the fact that they were thirsty, hot, and bored in the sky....
He had talked about the flying car many times since the beginning of the course, but at that moment he had mostly focused on how exciting it was to crash into the Boxing Willow, and now he had found a new angle to brag about, much to Ron's excitement.
Just then, next to him, Hermione suddenly yelled out with wide eyes, "Wait a minute, how did you crash into the Boxing Willow in the first place?!"
The surrounding discussions suddenly went silent, and then the crowd exploded with a bang.
"Get Professor McGonagall!"
"No! We should go with Mrs. Hooch!".
"The Quidditch team! Where's the Quidditch team?"
There was great confusion, some ran into the castle to find the teachers, some ran for their flying brooms and others pulled out their wands and made huge cushions on the floor.
After a while, Professor McGonagall took the initiative and ran out of the castle, followed by the other three deans and the animated Gilderoy Lockhart, who would not miss the action.
"Fish McGonagall!!!"
As he saw a car whiz past his head, and
As she watched a car whiz by overhead and continue to draw one strange line after another in the air, the corners of Professor McGonagall's eyes twitched, she took a deep breath and roared loudly toward the sky.
I thought with Voldemort's diary out of the way, the little kitten would be able to calm down...
How long has it been? I can't believe that in such a short time he's causing trouble again!
What infuriated Professor McGonagall even more was that, instead of landing at the sound of her voice, Fish took control of the car and ran for higher ground.
Was he planning to elope?
Professor McGonagall was furious.
But soon, her anger turned to concern.
The lime green car in the sky suddenly swung wildly and a cloud of white smoke billowed from its front end, clearly something was terribly wrong.
"The flying broom!"
Professor McGonagall was also the first to think of the flying broom, the most common means of flight for wizards.
But before the others could bring the brooms, the car, which was chattering in the sky, emitted a series of metallic clanking and rustling noises, and the next instant it was silent.
Immediately after, the car hovering in the sky suddenly plunged, bringing the thick white smoke from the front of the car, spinning and falling to the ground.
"Nyajajajajaja!"
?(●≧?≦●)?
"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" ×2
Fish's gleeful laughter and the twins' high-pitched cries accompanied the magic car as it fell from the sky.
By the time the twins remembered to pull out their wands and use the levitation spell on the car, they could see out the windows of the Hogwarts castle tower.
What was even more unfortunate was that when George and Fred finally pulled out their wands in a panic and were about to say a spell, the mandrake leaves they were holding slipped down their throats, causing them to cough violently.
As for Fish, the kitten, he had no intention of pulling out his wand or using his gliding spell.
Since he had heard Professor McGonagall's voice, he would let her handle it, and Fish was sure that Mum McGonagall would be able to protect him...
The kitten hadn't yet realized the gravity of the situation.
After all, as far as Fish was concerned, Professor McGonagall had given him "permission" to take people into the Forbidden Forest, and he had often jumped from high places before....
The first time he jumped off Shadow's back in front of Professor McGonagall, he got a good thrashing, but she should have gotten used to it by now.
At most, he could have broken a school rule by driving a flying car, and he would have been reprimanded by Professor McGonagall, and then punished, and had a few unimportant House points deducted.... Anyway, Gryffindor was at the bottom of the table again this year, so it didn't matter if he was deducted points or not.
Besides, there's George and Fred with me!
The kitten said it wouldn't be a problem.
"Boom!"
Sure enough, just as the car was about to hit the ground, Professor McGonagall and Professor Flitwick had teamed up to create a huge cushion, which caught the car Fish and the twins were in, emitting a muffled sound.
"Minerva~"
?●ω●?
As soon as the car hit the ground, Fish jumped out of the car and then threw himself on top of Professor McGonagall, rubbing his head against her arm.
"I found this car when I was playing with George and Fred in the Forbidden Forest, it's so much fun! It just seems to be a bit faulty."
?(●ΦωΦ●)?
Fish was excited to share his discoveries in the Forbidden Forest with Professor McGonagall.
While the kitten was having fun talking, the twins in the car are already embarrassed.
They encouraged Fish to take them into the Forbidden Forest, rode in the magic carriage with Fish, and were caught by Professor McGonagall....
They were probably going to be grounded until the end of the term, and Mrs. Weasley was probably going to send another howling letter.
Indeed, these things are uncomfortable for the twins who are often naughty, but it's not enough to get them down like they are now.
But...
They had just swallowed the mandrake leaves, and once again the progress to become Animagus was back to the first stage of preparation, which made George and Fred despair....
Becoming Animagus is very troublesome, isn't it?
And Fish was adding fuel to the fire at that point.
"When we get the car fixed, Fish will take you for a ride nya, George and Fred have taught Fish how to drive the car, Fish is smart!"
?(●ΦωΦ●)?
"Oh? Really?"
Professor McGonagall turned up the corners of her mouth, but her eyes flashed fiercely and she asked in a cold tone, "George and Fred taught you to drive, then I really have to thank them!"
By the time she uttered the last words, Professor McGonagall was already grinding her teeth.
"George, Fred, what are you doing in there? come out! Minerva said she wanted to thank you."
(●ΦωΦ●)?
Hearing this, the little cat immediately turned his head and waved at the twins in the car, calling out to them.
Of course, he heard the anger in Professor McGonagall's tone, but the clever little kitten pretended not to know anything...a trick he had learned from Voldemort.
He would pretend to be the good guy, and then direct Professor McGonagall's attention to the twins, so that they would ignore him.
Voldemort had used this method to make Fish confuse the others for the heir of Slytherin and to assuage his own suspicions, and if it hadn't been for Fish knowing the truth and Dumbledore's warnings, he might have fallen for it.
Now that he's put it into practice, it's working!
As for the twins being used as experiments by the cat...
They are used to taking the blame for Fish anyway.
