Chapter 209: "Surprise" Ambush
"Wait!" Pansy hurried to grab his arm after they had just left the Pub.
"Yes?" asked Harry, hoping she didn't change her mind about leaving.
"I can't do this!" She exclaimed.
Harry sighed. "Fine…where do you want to go now?"
"No, it's not that… Harry, this is a trap!" Pansy confessed, tears welling in her eyes.
"A trap?" Harry pretended he didn't know what she was talking about.
"They made me do this… they said I had to lure you to Hogsmeade and they would ambush you on the way out…" Pansy said.
"The ones who were sitting behind us?" Harry asked. He had recognized some of them. They were present the day he attacked the Slytherin dorm, but he was sure they didn't see him.
Pansy nodded. "They think you had something to do with the invasion on our house… I told them it was impossible, but they didn't listen."
"So they threatened you to do this?" Harry asked. "I thought you were basically untouchable with your father's influence."
"No one is untouchable… and most of those seniors are from powerful families too. If they all band together, there is not much my father can do to punish them… as long as they don't take things too far, my father will do nothing," Pansy explained.
"But I don't care anymore! I can't let you get hurt…" Pansy exclaimed.
"What an idiot…" Harry patted her head. "If they were threatening you… you shouldn't have told me."
"What? But…" Pansy was expecting him to become angry with her or something.
"Come on, if we take too long they will suspect something is off." Harry started walking towards Hogsmeade's exit.
"W-wait, didn't you hear what I said? They are waiting for you there. You should stay here and return with a professor or with more people." Pansy had to hasten her steps to catch up with him.
"If I were to do that… wouldn't you be in trouble?" Harry asked.
"But I…" Pansy didn't know what to answer. She would definitely be in a lot of trouble, but it should be a lot less than what they were planning on doing to him.
"Stop worrying so much and let's go." He grabbed her hand and started walking again.
Pansy continued to look around with nervous eyes as they approached the exit.
Harry was busy, trying to filter out the large amount of magical signatures in order to pick up the ones he was interested in.
Lyra and Ginny had been waiting inside a shop close to the entrance.
Daphne and Tracey had left The Three Broomsticks shortly after him.
And now there was one more addition… his mother and Snape were also following him.
'It looks like I have a large audience…' He thought.
"Harry…" Pansy clutched his arm when they arrived at the large sign with the words 'Welcome to Hogsmeade' written in big letters. Beyond that was a long path that led to the castle.
He had to almost drag the girl out of the village at this point, but they made it out.
Just a couple of minutes later, he heard a group of people walking out from behind some trees.
'It seems like they were impatient to show themselves.' Harry thought with disappointment. They should have all attacked him from their hiding spot instead of this...
"Oh?... what do we have here?" One of the boys gave Harry and Pansy a wide mocking grin.
'So they want to play the "this is just a casual encounter and we are just random bullies" card.'
In total, there were eight students. Six boys and two girls.
The one who spoke first was someone that Harry did not recognize. Next to him was another boy he didn't know.
'It seems like they brought those two boys as reinforcements so they must have a lot of trust in their abilities.' Either that or they were just looking down on him. At this point, he was starting to consider those seniors as complete idiots.
"What a cute couple… it would be a shame if something happened to them, hahaha!" The other unknown boy added.
"Wow..." He didn't know what to say to their terrible acting.
Harry had a hard time forcing Pansy to let him go. "Can you go wait near those bushes over there with Daphne and Tracey?" Harry whispered to her and used his freed hand to point.
"What?!" "Daphne, shhhh!"
Two voices came out from the bush.
"Wait...they follow us?" Pansy would never have expected this kind of behavior from someone as refined as Daphne. She would have anticipated it from Tracey, but that girl never showed any interest in Harry.
"Go on, I'll deal with this...ehm... issue." Harry gave her another push, and she moved towards the bush.
He then turned to look at the senior students.
"How brave!" "What a gentleman." The two girls chuckled.
"Like a true Gryffindor… brave and stupid." The boy named Patrick decided to add. He was the first one to be knocked out during his visit to the dungeon.
"We do have that reputation, don't we?" Harry chuckled. This was probably how most Slythering saw them.
Yaxley and Avery were the closest ones to him. They pulled their wands and pointed them at him.
Avery got even closer and put his wand next to Harry's face. "Bravery and stupidity are a dangerous combination… you are going to learn that today."
Harry didn't try to move away from the older boy.
"Look, he is terrified! Can't even move!" Someone pointed at him and laughed.
"Are you sure this is the one?" Someone asked Patrick, who seemed to be the one in charge of the group. Or at the very least, the one who had organized this.
"I'm sure he was involved somehow… he will tell us everything today."
Yaxley and Avery glanced back at Patrick as if asking for permission to begin, and he nodded.
"Make him suffer a bit…I want to know who else was there!." Patrick said with a cold tone.
Avery looked at Harry with a cruel grin. "Sorry, boy, it's nothing personal. We are just hired hands." His wand gained a golden glow. Avery opened his mouth to begin chanting his spell…
"Urggg!"
Instead, he was met with a fist to his face.
