~ Chapter 4 ~ We were probably halfway to hogwarts when something weird happened. Everything suddenly became. .cold. Sad. Frost covered the windows. “What’s happening?” I asked. “I don’t know.” Harry said. Suddenly, we all became aware of some stranger in the corner. Ginny squeaked. “Who is that?” She asked. The stranger seemed to be asleep. Suddenly, something stepped onto our compartment. It was terrifying. It was like a human but . . It wasn’t human. It had grey hands and was wearing a black cloak and seemed to be floating. It looked around and started moving towards Harry. I don’t know what it was doing. . It seemed to want to hurt him somehow. Suddenly, the stranger jumped up. He yelled some spell at the thing, and it backed away from Harry and left. The frost left the windows. We all stared at the stranger. He introduced himself as Remus Lupin, the new defense against the dark arts teacher. He also told us that the thing that stepped into our compartment was a dementor. After he explained all of this, we arrived at hogwarts. We watched the sorting, ate dinner, and then went to bed, but I was still weirded out by the dementor that had been on the train. Why was it there? How did it get there? Why did it go for Harry? I thought for hours, and then fell into an uneasy sleep.
