Vester's Patronus

"Dumbledore..." Suddenly, the door to the Headmaster's office opened, and Snape stepped inside.

His expression changed in an instant, and he raised his wand.

Sirius raised his wand at the same time.

Dumbledore hurriedly stood and held out his hands. "Wait, Severus. And you too, Sirius."

Muya tugged Harry back when he wanted to step forward and whispered, "Don't worry, Harry. Professor Snape won't do anything."

Snape looked away in displeasure, as though he had seen something unpleasant, then placed a bottle of Tooth-strengthening potion on the table.

"No wonder I smelled dog." Snape gave a cold "Hmph."

"Professor Snape, I suddenly remembered that I seem to have something to discuss with you." Muya grabbed Snape's robes, gave Dumbledore a look, and left with Snape.

Following behind Snape, Muya asked, "Professor, why aren't you surprised at all?"

"That isn't something you should concern yourself with."

His tone was calm, with none of the anger he had shown in the Headmaster's office.

Muya nodded, her expression unchanged.

Snape stopped outside his office and turned to look at Muya. "Well? What did you need from me?"

That gesture seemed to say that she should leave quickly if she had nothing to say.

"Professor, you promised to teach me the Patronus Charm before. You haven't forgotten, have you?" Muya blinked.

"..." Snape frowned, then relaxed. "I haven't. I'll teach you tomorrow."

Muya smiled and nodded, then waved goodbye to Snape.

In the Headmaster's office, Harry and Sirius had already left. "Old Mischief-Maker, I want to ask you something."

"Vester!" In the owlery, Vester was feeding his owl, Weiya. He had bought her only this year, and she was gentle and obedient.

She loved rubbing against Muya's hand, but Vester only allowed her two rubs.

Vester put down the owl treats in his hand.
