bat, grimm and the cat can fix it (Translation)

A theory raises questions

The man was torn from his thoughts when a puffing Harry stopped in front of him.
"Out of shape?" He teased a little.
harry grinned.
“Must be because I spent the last four weeks almost exclusively in one room. Besides, I would like to see you try to keep up with a dog. "
"You can wait a long time for that," smiled the teacher.
Sirius was with them by now and nuzzled his head against Severus' hand.
"This is becoming an obsession, Blacky."
The Animagus ignored this sentence. especially because the Potions Master stroked him despite the words.
"He's really a lovely dog." Harry gave his opinion.
Remus laughed, then turned serious.

"Harry, why did you want to meet us?"
the boy looked around quickly.
"Not here, I can do without an audience."
Remus looked around too, but didn't see anyone. Not even with his werewolf senses.
"Nobody is here."
Severus snorted.
“You really haven't been to this school in a long time. I wouldn't even trust a blade of grass. Come on, I know a place where nobody can find us. "
"A romantic hangout from your school days?" Remus grinned and winked.
severus scowled at him, then smiled grimly.
"Did you follow me?"
At the look on Remus' face, not only did Severus laugh, Harry snorted too. The werewolf had the grace to blush.

"Professor Snape?"
"Hm?"
“Isn't Mr. Malfoy a little unfair to Draco? I mean, he can't help his mother's behavior now. He thought he was a real Malfoy himself. "
"Did you forget that it was he who passed the diary on to your housemate?"
Harry shook his head.
“No, but I don't think the Pointy Face really wanted to kill anyone either. he's spoiled, spoiled and an ass but he's not a killer. "
Severus nodded.
“You're right, but he stole anyway and put his supposed father in an impossible situation. Lucius is not really like he is in public, but he has his pride. And he was hurt. But I am sure that he will do everything to ensure that the boy has a father again. "
"Greengrass has no other choice anyway," Remus said.
“Right, he has to take Draco. But nowhere does it say that he has to be nice to him. "
"And you think Mr. Malfoy will talk to the man?"
Severus nodded.
“As I said, he's not a bad person. However, he will surely advise Greengrass not to leave the boy's upbringing to Narcissa anymore. You saw what came out of it.
So here we are. "

severus had led his companions to a small hidden clearing. In the middle was a pretty pond in which frogs and fish romped about.
Some hoof prints could be seen in the meadow.
Harry leaned down.
"Which animal do they come from?"
Remus sniffed.
"Nobody at all, the prints are from centaurs."
Harry bit his lip.
“I hope you didn't hear me. Centaurs don't like to be called an animal at all. "
severus sat down on a bench.
“Even if they heard you, they won't be angry. You didn't want to offend anyone, you just wanted to know who the traces came from. however, I wonder what has brought the herd so far here? Usually their area is much deeper in the forest. "
The werewolf had kneeled in front of the water.
“I suppose it's the pond. The water is absolutely clear. they will probably use it for vision too. Not everything is written in the stars. "
Harry sat on the bank with Blacky and watched the fish.
"Nice, it's a shame I can't swim."
the animagus whined and licked the boy's face until he giggled.
"Do you want Blacky to transform?" Remus wanted to know.
But everyone else shook their heads.

Severus turned his attention back to Harry. the child was leaning against the big black dog and was looking around with wide eyes. The man let him go for a while. But then he wanted to know why they were all here.
"Well Harry, why did you want to speak to us?"
immediately the boy focused his teacher.
"It's about what I saw from the Dementor attack."
"What was it?" The werewolf wanted to know.
Harry rubbed his palms together. severus had already noticed that it was a gesture that the boy only made when he was very tense.
"I, ... I, .... I ... saw the death of my parents," he managed to stammer.
immediately Blacky snuggled closer to the boy. Severus, who until now was the only one who hadn't sat in the grass, now also sat down with the others. He took the child gently in his arms.
The werewolf was nearer too. anything else was out of the question for him, he had to take care of his puppy.
"Do you want to tell us?" Severus asked gently.
And then Harry did too.
haltingly and repeatedly interrupted by sobs, he reported his memories.
