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

The second task

Harry turned in his chair.
"So Crookshanks, who are you hissing at?"
the boy had heard the hangover for a while. And seen out of the corner of my eye too. But first he had to take care of his girlfriend.
Hermione's confidante stared at Harry's pant leg. Or rather, something that climbed on it.
"A beetle?"
The half-knee hissed on and started to jump. Then Harry clicked. He quickly cast a silence spell around him. Then he plucked the insect off his pants. He held it close to his eyes.
"No matter who you are, I'm sure you haven't registered."
Harry could tell by the wild fidgeting of the animal that he was right. He was holding an unregistered animagus. And that literally. perhaps it was the one who had put his name in the goblet.
“I'll take care of that later. Beast, Crookshanks, please take care of our guest. "
Both the book and the cat seemed very pleased with the task. beast wrapped its tongue, usually used as a bookmark, around the insect. And Crookshanks continued to glare at it.
“Thank you both. I really have to continue here. "
harry stroked his friendly helper again briefly, then he went back to looking for his favorite bat.

He hadn't got very far when he was surrounded on all sides.
"What's this?"
unfortunately it was impossible to tell. The water around him was very dark. Harry suspected that Melina had earlier got herself to safety with her ink from whatever was lurking here.
"Just come here, I'm not afraid.muttered the young hero.
The beings even did him a favor. Whatever it was, they weren't intelligent. Or they had never seen a kite before. of course there was also the possibility that they could not feel fear. Why should this be the case with the Black family?
In the next moment the first attacked. The young champion didn't really care. the skin of his horn tail was really made of dragon skin. Well, Sirius had got a screaming fit when his godson and son had taken off one of his cloaks. but he had understood that Harry just wanted to make sure he could do the second task. He had woven the leather into the figure. Now he was even more like a real dragon. however, this made it harder to conjure up the character. That had spurred Severus to make some sarcastic comments. All of them were about Gryffindors acting first, then thinking.
Harry grinned at the memory.
but then the attackers became annoying to him. Because his dragon was not making good progress. So the champion decided to use another ability on his character.
"Come on, put a fire on their bum. Wherever is their butt? "
immediately the dragon opened its mouth and let loose fire on the critters. That had also taken a long time. After all, water had the ability to put out fires. But in the end Harry had succeeded.
again the audience cried out in surprise. It was probably because the lake was starting to steam. Why did they even watch this task? You could only see one lake for an hour.

the fire also made an impression on the creatures that targeted the dragon. They all fled as quickly as they came.
“Cool, it worked better than the exercises. Well then, go on. "

"Hello Harry."
the dragon turned its head in surprise. He was even more surprised when he saw who had spoken to him. "
"Myrtle? You recognize me? ”He wanted to know, amazed.
The ghost girl nodded smugly.
"Of course, I'm dead, but not stupid."
“I never said that either. But I dare to say that I don't really look much like a Hungarian horntail. "
The ghost laughed out loud.
“No, certainly not. but I recognize your magic signature. ”she explained to him.
“Can you feel that? Wow, I'm impressed."
At Harry's compliment, the girl turned silver. A sure sign of embarrassment with ghosts. then, however, the expression on her face was offended.
“Why didn't you come to see me after the Chamber affair? I thought you liked me. ”At the last sentence she had started to cry.
“I do too, but unfortunately it didn't work. last year we had the stress with the dementors. Sirius and Dad just didn't let me out of their sight. "
Myrtle nodded sadly.
"I noticed. They were here back then, too, shortly before I died. Terrible beasts. "
"You agree." Harry shuddered at the memory.
“And what is this year? Isn't it because of the stupid tournament? ”The ghost wanted to know more.
Harry blushed suddenly. He looked around briefly to see if nobody could hear him. a stupid idea underwater, but he couldn't help it.
"Um, no, there is another reason. I gossiped with Severus over the holidays. When he found out where I was hanging out in the sophomore year, he read me the riot act. I had to write sentences. He also talked at length about decency and privacy. he forbade me to ever go into a girls' bathroom again. Regardless of whether it is used or not. The only exception would be if a woman had her child in a toilet and no one was there to help except me. I tell you, that was embarrassing. "
Now Myrtle had a hysterical fit of laughter.
“You had to write sentences? Which one?"
"Myrtle please, this is so embarrassing."
the ghost girl didn't even think about letting the boy off the leash so easily.
"Come on, tell me. What did the old grump want from you? "
“The name was right back then. I had to write that I had no business in the girls' toilets. So if you want to talk to me you have to leave your domicile for better or for worse. I'm not interested in any detention. especially not on the subsequent education classes. The man knows how to embarrass someone. ”Harry blushed at the memory.
The girl giggled again.
"Can I introduce myself."
"How did you get here anyway?" Harry wanted to know. Especially to change the subject.
"Oh, where do you think the toilets are going?"
"What? Yuck, it's good that I never swam in this lake. That's disgusting. "
the ghost nodded.
“Tell that to the Aquarius and all the other beings that live in here. They don't like it either. "
Harry grumbled something to himself.
Then something else took his attention.
