Chapter 248: Troll vs Golem
"Werewolves?!" Ginny exclaimed.
"Missy and her friends should run!" Dobby stood before Lyra. "Dobby will fight the bad men, and those ugly ones."
"Dobby, no!" Lyra shouted.
"What is this?..." One of the Death Eaters said while staring at Dobby.
"What a joke…a house elf is going to fight us?..." The other one chuckled.
"Just let one of the trolls go have some fun. That will take care of this," one of the werewolves said with a cruel grin.
"Oh! I wanna see that!" the other one added.
"What are you all panicking for? We also have him." Luna pointed at the marble golem, who was still standing at the back of the group.
"Right! He is supposed to protect the students," Ginny said.
All of a sudden, the group was startled by a loud scream coming from one of the trolls.
The chains had been released, and the large creature started to walk forward towards them. "FUN!" he shouted with a wide smile on his face. He then moved his massive hand backward and pulled a colossal wooden club that had been attached to its back. "FUN FUN!" he kept repeating.
"That doesn't look fun to me," said Luna.
Astoria nodded in agreement.
"You will not harm the Missus!" Dobby got in front of the group and waved his hands at the approaching troll.
"Dobby stop! Just come with us." Lyra turned to her friends. "We can just run the other way."
"Yes, let's d-...ahh!" Ginny ducked down to avoid several balls of fire that passed by her side.
They impacted on the wooden bridge and started a fire that continued to spread at an unnaturally fast pace.
"Noo!" Ginny screamed. Their path of retreat had been blocked.
Both of the Death Eaters brought their wands down while laughing loudly. "You think you can leave just like that? There is no escaping this…accept your fates."
"W-Wait!" Neville shouted. "It is me who you want, right? Let them go, you can have me."
"Oh? The brave Boy Who Lived finally spoke."
"And a good Gryffindor he is!"
The two Death Eaters commented in a mocking manner.
"Forget it, boy." The rough werewolf told him. "Once that thing is off the chain…there is no stopping it." He pointed at the giant troll.
The creature had been walking very slowly towards them, but once it got to around thirty feet…it started running.
The children panicked, not sure of what to do now. They could not retreat due to the fire covering the last part of the bridge.
Ginny launched a barrage of spells at the troll, in an attempt to stop it. But trolls were extremely resistant to magic to the point of near immunity so all of her attempts were brushed off.
Dobby did not move from his spot, he was ready to take on the troll by himself if necessary. His elf apparition could only take one person away so this was the only way to protect all the students.
Fortunately for the little elf, that was not necessary at all.
When the troll was less than fifteen feet away…almost in the range of his club…the golem moved.
The white marble construct passed by every member of the group and launched itself against the troll, pushing the creature away from them.
"What is that thing?"
"A golem?"
The Death Eaters had missed the presence of the construct altogether.
The golem had remained immobile the entire time and standing at the back. Due to the lack of illumination, they couldn't even see it clearly.
The troll roared in pain. The golem had punched its stomach and almost sent him tumbling down.
"Pain!" the creature screamed.
After standing back up again, its face was a mixture of agony and rage. It stared at the golem and lifted its club before running back at it.
The two were around the same size. The troll being just slightly taller and wider.
The golem reacted to the troll's attack by charging forward, avoiding part of the attack by closing the distance. It then hit the troll with its shoulder.
This time, it succeeded in making the troll lose its balance and fall down, making a loud noise as the wooden bridge cracked and losing its weapon in the process.
The Death Eaters and werewolves were watching the spectacle with increased worry. They all thought the troll was going to make quick work of this stone golem, but they were now seeing that this was hardly a normal magical construct.
"It must be some secret project from the Headmaster…he is the only one who could make something like this," one of the Death Eaters said. As a recent Hogwarts graduate, he was very familiar with Albus Dumbledore.
"S-Should I release this one too?" The handler of the remaining troll asked. Once he removed the charm on the chains, it would be very difficult to get that creature under control again. It may not even be possible due to their reduced numbers.
They used groups of ten to chain the trolls in the first place before bringing them to the castle.
"Release that beast!" one of the werewolves said. He knew already that one troll was not going to be enough and he was in no hurry to face that golem either.
"Yes, there is no need to chain them back either. After they destroy the golem, we'll just leave and let the trolls continue their rampage," the other one added.
"F-Fine…this will be someone else's problem then…" The Death Eater holding the chains let them go.
As he did, the rune markings on them disappeared, and the troll was now free to do as it pleased.
"Grrr…." The large troll groaned and grunted. Its eyes were fixed on the golem who had hurt its friend.
"PAIN, DESTROY!" it roared.
