418 Prophecy in the Forbidden Forest (Complete the first half of the third grade)

Forbidden forest?

After hearing this location, the expressions on the three people's faces were all stunned - because of Callan, James and Sirius both thought that the place they were going to was Hogsmeade Village.

Remus asked worriedly: "Forbidden Forest? What are you going to take them to do there?"

Ariana recognized this introverted little boy. During the full moon night, Remus didn't even dare to take the initiative to talk to Ariana - it was hard to say whether this was because Obscurus' appearance was too intimidating.

"You'll know when we get there."

Ariana said mysteriously: "I recently discovered something very interesting, and it is definitely worth the risk for us to take a closer look."

Karan also didn't expect Ariana to be so bold and dare to go to the Forbidden Forest even though she knew Dumbledore was at Hogwarts.

And from what she said, it sounded like Ariana had done this more than once.

When the plan changed, Callan had no choice but to turn to James and Sirius and ask for their opinions.

"I'm OK."

James said nonchalantly, he was only interested in adventure and wanted to have some fun, and it didn't matter where he was.

Sirius acted even more indifferent than he was.

"If I had known, I would have called Regulus here." He suddenly talked about his younger brother: "He has always been very timid and needs to be trained in the Forbidden Forest."

Callan was too lazy to pay attention to Sirius's strange brain circuits, and Ariana's reaction was even more decisive.

"What are you waiting for?!"

She said with a wave of her hand, looking powerful and majestic.

"Come on, boys!"

The three of them followed Ariana, and James exclaimed: "Karan, where did you make friends? She looks so cool!"

Karan covered his forehead helplessly, he was so speechless that he couldn't say anything.

At this time, seeing the four of them about to leave, Remus, who had been struggling for a long time, suddenly stretched out his hand and said: "Hey, you guys - if the place you want to go is just the Forbidden Forest, and you don't have to leave the school -"

"What nonsense are you talking about?"

James interrupted with a smile and waved vigorously: "Hurry up and follow me!"

Remus's face suddenly turned red. He ran over and defended in a low voice: "I'm not here to have fun like you. I'm helping Principal Dumbledore keep an eye on you to avoid causing bigger troubles." trouble."

"Okay." Sirius said lazily: "It's not the time for you to make a speech now, Prefect Lupine, or President of the Student Union Lupine."

Remus was so teased that he couldn't lift his head, and James laughed loudly.

After leaving the Room of Requirement, the three of James hid in his Deathly Hallows invisibility cloak, while Callan and Ariana hid in Callan's own invisibility cloak.

Ariana reached out and touched the corner of the invisibility cloak.

"You used this invisibility cloak to secretly do a lot of bad things, right?"

Faced with Ariana's sudden question, Karan curled his lips and said, "It's definitely not as much as you. And what on earth do you think? Aren't you afraid that Principal Dumbledore will find you?"

Ariana snorted slightly, not sure if it was directed at Karan or her brother.

Karan stared at Ariana in confusion, but Ariana had no intention of explaining.

He had to change the question.

"How many times have you been to the Forbidden Forest?"

"Or, how many times have you sneaked out? Do Aberforth and Principal Dumbledore know about this?"

"I know what you are worried about." Ariana deliberately did not look at Karan, she seemed a little impatient: "Don't worry, no one can find me, let alone Percival has been secretly helping me, no one can No idea I'd be sneaking out of the Hog's Head, or Godric's Hollow."

"Also, how many times do you want me to tell you, don't lecture me with this elder tone? I am older than you and have lived longer than you."

At this moment, Karan's words were all blocked.

He was indeed worried about Ariana. After all, the magical world could not tolerate the existence of Obscurus. Even if the other party was under control, no wizard would believe this absurd fact.

James was still excitedly discussing the upcoming adventure with his two friends, but the two people in front fell into an eerie silence.

One of them is born with a closed brain. They have been instilled with a lot of thoughts and ideas that are not their own since childhood. It was not until recently that they finally understood the reasons for everything.

The other one has become an Obscurial since childhood, and has been living secretly ever since, not daring to let anyone know of his existence.

It wasn't until they met each other that one party was saved, and the other party received similar rewards many years later.

But not long after the two saviors met, they all remained silent.

All the words seemed to have been exhausted on the last full moon night.

Karan didn't know why Ariana was like this.

Perhaps, the real reason can only be revealed in this so-called adventure.

In the cold and hot atmosphere, the five people secretly left the castle.

They walked quietly towards the outskirts of the playground, and did not slowly stop until they reached the edge of the Forbidden Forest.

James took off the invisibility cloak on his head and said excitedly: "Where are we going now?"

Ariana sniffed her nose lightly, not knowing whether this method was effective, but then she pointed in a direction: "This way, hurry up, don't get lost."

"Lost?" James glanced at Sirius proudly, and then his body suddenly began to change, as did Sirius.

It didn't take long for the two of them to turn into a stag and a big black dog.

In the dense forbidden forest, animals must move more conveniently than wizards.

The stag's eyes looked full of energy. It looked at Ariana proudly, showing off its Animagus.

The big black dog seemed much colder. It was also sniffing, as if it wanted to know what Ariana smelled.

Remus quietly turned away. He felt inexplicably ashamed. He always felt that James' behavior was a bit embarrassing.

Ariana blinked, she nodded calmly and said: "Very good, so you won't get lost, follow me quickly!"

After saying this, Ariana's feet suddenly turned into a burst of black mist - she flew up, and quickly rushed to a long distance.

The few people who were not careful were stunned for a while, and then they hurriedly followed. James did not forget to let the slowest Remus ride on him. He did not have a strange sense of honor like the centaurs, as long as he could help If he sees his friends, he won't find it insulting.

Then James looked at Callan. Although it would be difficult to hump two people, fortunately they were not heavy. It would not be possible if they were like Steve.

But Karan has already left the three of them far behind - he has never told Steve this secret, and plans to give him a "surprise" at some point - even though Karan's magic talent has been reduced a lot, but He was still able to use the Levitation Charm at will, after all it was Karan's most used spell, even if it was cast with wandless magic.

The floating spell was cast on Karan himself, causing him to float up and down, and he soon caught up with Ariana who was far ahead.

“How did you do that—no!”

Karan quickly suppressed his curiosity about the magic of the Obscurus. He ignored Ariana's previous warning and asked with a hint of accusation in his inquiry: "I have wanted to ask you for a long time, is it really okay for you to do this? Forget it last time, but why did you take the initiative to reveal your identity as an Obscurus this time?"

Ariana turned her head and glanced at Karan, and she replied naturally: "What? Aren't you here, and aren't they all your friends?"

Karan didn't expect Ariana to trust him so much, but even he didn't tell everyone about the Occlumens to avoid unnecessary risks to others.

He was about to say a few more words, but Ariana, after being silent for a while, suddenly murmured in a low voice: "Besides, there is nothing to avoid. One day I will be exposed... ."

Ariana's unusual attitude immediately attracted Karan's attention. He didn't say anything more, but waited silently.

This method is particularly effective for members of the Dumbledore family.

After being silent for a longer time, Ariana turned to look at the stag, the big black dog, and Remus who were far behind. She did not continue flying, but stopped next to a ginkgo tree. down.

Karan also stopped.

He looked at Ariana, who was staring at the withered leaves on the branches of the tree.

"I've had enough."

Alone, Ariana finally opened up.

Perhaps except when facing Percival, this was also the first time she had the opportunity to tell others her true thoughts.

"I should have done this a long time ago."

Ariana continued to whisper words that left Kahlan scratching his head.

"Although neither Aberforth nor Albus want other things to bother me, I can always detect when they are unhappy."

"Perhaps because I have been with Obscurus for too long, I feel negative emotions more clearly than other wizards."

"Moreover, in the past few years, this solemn atmosphere has appeared more and more often among them."

Callan understood the reason for all this - the threat of Voldemort has been plaguing the entire wizarding world, but he still couldn't figure out what this had to do with Ariana.

"After receiving my second life, even before this, I have completely understood that family is the most important existence. Whether it is my parents or my two brothers, they have never given up on me. ."

"They've protected me for too long. Now, it's my turn to protect them."

However, Karan muttered in a low voice: "I don't think Principal Dumbledore needs your protection. He knows the current situation better than anyone else, and he is more trustworthy than anyone else."

"Trust?" Ariana snorted softly: "Albus is indeed powerful, but sometimes he is confused, and he always needs my sister to help him."

Karan blinked: "What on earth do you mean?"

At this time, the stag and the big black dog finally caught up with the two of them, panting. They just wanted to take a rest, but Ariana immediately flew away mischievously.

Karan was still standing there dumbly, with Ariana's last whispered words echoing in his heart.

"Then do you think your lover is trustworthy?"

Is it because of Grindelwald? !

In the midst of three desperate glances, Karan quickly chased after Ariana.

"Are you referring to Grindelwald?!" he asked in shock as soon as he came up.

Ariana seemed to hate this name: "Of course it was him. The bad guy almost snatched Albus away, and he also cast the Cruciatus Curse on Aberforth!"

"During that time, I should have found a way to help Albus, otherwise he wouldn't have suffered for so long."

"This time, I will not allow the same situation to happen, nor will I let others hurt my family."

Although Ariana didn't reveal the deeper reason, both of them knew that her mother's death played a big role in this matter.

At the beginning, it was Ariana who lost control and killed her mother with her own hands.

Ariana's change of attitude finally became visible.

At the same time, Karan was silently rejoicing in his heart. Fortunately, Ariana did not really confront Grindelwald back then, otherwise there is no telling what would have happened.

But Voldemort...

As early as in the world of Seven Hundred Horcruxes, Karan understood that Voldemort was no less of a threat than Grindelwald or Antioch.

Not to mention the parchment made of soul - the ancient Herbo.

"So, the reason why you told me so many things is because you want to ask me for help?"

Karan could not help but make such a guess.

But Ariana snorted again, and she said proudly: "No need!"

"If it weren't for you taking the initiative to ask questions, I wouldn't have told you so many things."

"And that's you. If it were anyone else, I wouldn't say anything. Even Albus and Aberforth don't know that I have such thoughts."

Karan was choked, and at the same time, he suddenly saw the shadow of another person in Ariana—Dorcas Meadows.

If it weren't for the emotional sealing technique, these two people would definitely become exactly the same, wanting to silently shoulder everything.

"Okay, rebellious little wizard."

Karan ignored Ariana's angry look and asked instead, "Then what are you going to do? Are you just going to run around like this?"

"Of course not."

Ariana suddenly slowed down and sniffed her nose twice more, carefully searching for the emotions that had escaped.

The three people behind finally caught up at this time. James and Sirius immediately transformed back into human form. If they couldn't rest this time, they would not continue running at all.

"If I had known better, I would have brought the broomstick here."

James gasped.

Sirius didn't say anything, but the long hair that spread out told everything. He didn't even have the strength to speak.

Remus looked at the two of them apologetically. He was about to discuss it with Ariana, but was immediately shushed by the other party.

"Be careful." Ariana warned in a low voice: "I don't want to be targeted by those nasty centaurs."

Horseman?

The few people looked around and saw that the surroundings were just dense bushes, and they didn't see any centaurs.

But James discovered something else.

"Hey, look at it."

He pointed in a direction and asked: "There seems to be a person there. She seems to be a student in the school, but I can't remember her name."

Karan narrowed his eyes and observed carefully. The other party was slowly walking towards the direction of several people.

"It's Sybill Trelawney." Callan asked in surprise: "Why is she here?"

"She has been here many times." Ariana said warily: "If it wasn't to see if there was anything wrong with them, I wouldn't have had to take the risk in the Forbidden Forest."

they?

Callan noticed Ariana's choice of words, but his attention was quickly attracted by Sybil's strangeness - Sybil Trelawney was usually dull enough, but now she was even more... Normally I would be stunned countless times.

She even seemed to have not seen the people on the road ahead, and actually wanted to skip them. She acted as if she had lost her soul, and she was still saying some inexplicable words, who Can't understand either.

"Hey." Karan called hurriedly.

Sybil suddenly stopped mumbling, but she was countless times weirder than before.

Several people quickly looked around.

Inexplicably, they all felt like they were being watched.

Sybil slowly turned her head to look at them, her eyes empty.

Remus' throat rolled hard - Sybil was staring at him, and under those dull eyes, Remus felt that all his secrets were invisible.

"Werewolf..."

Sybil murmured in a low voice, which made Remus' heart almost burst - not many people in the school knew this secret, how did Sybil know? !

"Hello... hello?" James tried to help, but before he could ask Sybil the reason, his eyes suddenly focused on him.

"James Potter...that's not right...the magnetic field of magic has changed...this isn't right..."

Sybil said even more incomprehensible words. Her eyes moved on several people one by one, even Ariana did not let go, but the words in her mouth remained unchanged: "No... "

Finally, she set her sights on Karan - who was also staring at her.

At this moment, many thoughts suddenly appeared in Karan's mind - the crazy Sybil in another world, and the scene he saw in the first Care of Magical Creatures class - Sybil walked in with the Cassandra Prophet The Forbidden Forest.

Under Sybil's gaze, Karan thought for a moment that she was going to tell that unfinished prophecy again - when falsehood became true.

But he had already learned about the follow-up to this prophecy in the Seven Hundred Horcrux World.

However, Sybil suddenly said: "In the dream of infinite falling, I saw the danger that was about to happen, which was enough to be fatal-"

"Sybil? Honey? Where are you?"

Before Sybil could finish her words, a shout came from deeper in the Forbidden Forest - several people recognized that it was the voice of Cassandra's prophet.

Sybil turned around numbly, and she suddenly ran towards the direction of the sound, like a frightened child seeking shelter.

Several people quickly followed him, while Karan was still asking Ariana: "Have you been following the two of them during this time?"

"Of course, you don't know how many problems have arisen with the professors in the school, and a famous prophet suddenly appeared. I don't trust them running around in the Forbidden Forest."

After finishing this explanation, Ariana ignored the confused looks of James and the others. She asked Karan, "What about you? What the hell is the dream of infinite falling?"

Karan pondered for a while: "That was a strange dream I had before. If I guessed correctly, Sybil seemed to be doing divination just now. She has done similar things before."

"Then the fatal danger is also real?" James immediately asked: "So, isn't your strange dream almost like an unknown thing?"

In fact, this was indeed the case, which also made several people unable to say a word during the rest of the journey.

Finally, Ariana stretched out her arms in silence.

"Just stop here, no more chasing."

She pushed aside the bushes in front of her and showed the reason to several people - the open space in front was filled with centaurs, and they seemed to have arrived at the tribe where the centaurs were.

The leader Margery stood in front of everyone. Cassandra Prophet hurriedly pulled Sibyl back and brought her to Margery.

"The Trelawneys will never forget the centaurs' help," Cassandra said.

Margery took one of Sybil's hands and he shook his head: "We are just following the guidance of the stars."

Then he brought Sibyl to the top of a stone altar. The centaurs at the bottom simultaneously lit the herbs in their hands, and the smoke soon enveloped the entire altar.

"The great ancestors."

Margery's voice sounded particularly loud in the smoke, and there seemed to be many more figures in it, like souls, but the sound of galloping horses' hooves continued to be heard.

"I petition to seal this cub's third eye and get help from all the ancestors!"

The sound of running in the smoke suddenly became clearer. It seemed that thousands of centaurs were running across the land!

However, when the magic of the centaur and the wizard combined everything, unexpected changes occurred.

Sybil suddenly looked in the direction of Karan and shouted as loud as she could, even crying in her tone.

"Fly!"

"Fly hard!"

“I’ll try my best to fly!”
