Lucifer heard Ginny sob across from him, shaking like mad between Harry and Ron, her brother, who didn't even seem to provide comfort.
Lupin came back a moment later, "We'll be at Hogwarts in ten minutes." eyes turned to look at the green-eyed boy, "Are you alright, Harry?"
"Fine," Harry tried to reassure him.
Then, his gaze focused on the boy, whose arm is now being held in a painful grip by Hermione, "I am sorry to ask you, Lucifer, but out of everyone else, you were the least affected by the Dementor....Can you do me a favour?"
"I need to hear it first," Lucifer said, while moving his head to look at the Professor clearly.
He felt Hermione squeeze his arm even more tight, if possible for a girl.
Lucifer turned to see her face stricken with fear again, he lent down and kissed the top of her head.
"Don't worry," he added, while waving his palm towards Lupin to continue.
"Can you do a sweep of the train with me, to make sure no other students have collapsed. If they have, give them some of that?" Lupin nodded to the large piece of chocolate, the said boy had on his lap, and probably even more inside the pouch.
"P-please, don't take him away!" Hermione's body started to tremble again, she jumped into Lucifer's arms, holding close to herself, not ready to, eyes blazing with nothing but fury, while looking at the man.
"She's more important, you can take the chocolate for others, Professor....."
"....Right, I'm very sorry for---"

The rest of the journey to Hogwarts was spent in silence.
Lucifer's eyes fixed on the girl, and noticed that she was feeling much better.
Talk about Hermione, her vision wasn't blurred anymore, she also saw that Rowena had perched herself on the luggage rack above them, and she saw Crookshanks at her feet.
Now, she understood why Rowena decided to go back inside her cage, even though she didn't like it very much, probably afraid of those horrible creatures.
When the train came to a halt at Hogsmeade station, there was a scramble to get off and up to the Castle.
Hermione couldn't imagine how the First Years felt.
They stepped outside and immediately felt like they were freezing, the cold weather and the rain pelting them, it was too cold for this early in September.
But, Hermione had a feeling it was because of the Dementors.
"Firs' Years! Firs' Years over here!" They heard the familiar voice of Hagrid.
He spotted them, "All righ', you four?"
They waved at him, but had no chance to talk.
They were ushered onto a mud tracked pathway that led to about a hundred or so Carriages.
Hermione knew something was pulling them, she could feel them but couldn't see.
Lucifer could though, and she wondered why, her hand wrapped in his tightly, afraid to let go.
The said boy also kept an eye on her movements, when they climbed into a carriage.
Hermione seemed much better, so he trusted her to be alright.
The carriage came to a halt and everyone began piling out.
"You fainted, Potter? Is Longbottom telling the truth? You actually fainted?!" came the ear scratching tone of Draco Malfoy.
Hermione, and Lucifer walked very slowly, behind the other two, she hoped he didn't mind.
But after hearing the damn voice, she stared at the loathsome cockroach that was Malfoy.
"Shove off, Malfoy!" Ron said with a clenched jaw.
"Did you faint as well, Weasley?" Draco snickered, "Did the scary old-" he stopped talking immediately.
Hermione only had to look beside her to know why, Lucifer was giving this cockroach, a very cold and blank, yet murderous glare.
He really knew how to make the air thick around him; she was finding it a little hard to breathe as well.
The crowd, rather quickly, hurried into the school to get away from both the rain, and Lucifer.
It was known by now that he was immensely powerful, and could make the air around him thick and heavy.
Only his immediate friends were not put off by him.
"Potter, Granger, Morningstar! I want to see you three!" came the urgent voice of Professor McGonagall.
They all turned and she was looking at them over the crowd.
McGonagall always had a way of making you feel like you did something wrong, and the look on their faces must've been just that.
"There is no need to look so worried - I just want a word in my office," she said to them, "Move along there, Weasley."
Ron stared at them as they followed Professor McGonagall.
The three of them accompanied her through the Entrance Hall, up the marble staircase and along a corridor.
They found themselves in her office, a large, welcoming fire in the back of the room.
McGonagall motioned for them to sit down, and she herself sat behind her desk, "Professor Lupin owled ahead and told me what happened on the train. He said that both Potter and Granger were the most affected by the Dementor?"
Before any of them could answer, Madam Pomfrey, the school's Matron, entered the office.
"Oh, it's you three," she said in a tone that indicated she wasn't surprised, "what dangerous thing did you do this time?"
"It was a Dementor, Poppy," McGonagall informed her at once.
Madam Pomfrey's eyes widened and she shook her head, "Setting Dementors around a school, honestly," she said and began checking over the two, which looked paled.
"Well, you won't be the first to collapse due to a Dementor. Terrible things, they are, and the effect they have on people who are already delicate..."
"I'm not delicate!" Surprisingly both Harry and Hermione argued at the same time, even using the matching words.
It was getting incredibly difficult for Lucifer to keep a straight face.
"Of course you're not..."
"What do they need?" Professor McGonagall asked in a worried tone, "Bed rest for Potter? Should Miss Granger perhaps spend the night in the Hospital Wing?"
"I'm fine!" Harry jumped out of his seat.
"No please, I am really done with the Hospital wing!" Hermione's cheeks puffed out in anger, she had missed a whole lot of classes, past year.
Already took so much time at night to catch up on, with Lucifer teaching her over the mirror.
"Poppy, Morningstar was on the train with them....so, he shou-"
Madam Pomfrey looked at the boy for some insight, but it was Hermione who opened her mouth first, "The Chocolate Lucifer gave me really worked, I felt much better after biti-"
"W-Well... She went into this - like, Catatonic state.." Lucifer explained to the stern-looking Professor.
It made Hermione snap her neck to look at her boyfriend's face, with a dumbfounded expression, she really felt betrayed!
That's the reason, she opened her mouth first, knowing he would definitely rat her out.
"Professor Lupin did the same with me, I also ate his chocolate...." Harry decided to get out of this situation.
"Really, they did?" She looked approvingly at the boy named Lucifer.
"....A Defense Professor who actually knows what he's talking about? Mark it on the Calendar, Minerva," Pomfrey said, with a knowing look.
"Are you sure you both feel alright?" McGonagall asked again, just to make sure.
"Yes, Professor!" Hermione replied, while gritting her teeth. She was clearly agitated about this.
Harry nodded repeatedly, he just wanted to get out of here.
"Very well," she said and turned to Harry, "Potter, I ask that you kindly wait outside while I discuss with Granger and Morningstar their timetables, then we can all go down to the feast." Harry got up and left, glancing back just before he closed the door.
