HOW I BELIEVE THE UMBRIDGE AND MCGONAGALL FIGHT DOWN AT HARGID'S SHOULD HAVE GONE: I know this story is a bit far fetched but this is what I had in my head!
It was late at night and Harry, Ron, and Hermione wanted to know what was up with Hagrid. They got the invisibility cloak and went down to see him only to find that people were already down there.
"Harry, what is going on?" Ron asked as they all started to walk faster. Then they heard yelling.
"It is McGonagall!" Hermione said. Then there were four red flashes.
"They attacked her!" Harry said. Hermione ran out from under the cloak and raced down.
"Hermione!" Ron yelled as the both went after her dropping the cloak.
The Aurors that came to get Hagrid were the bad kind and Umbridge stood by watching proud. Hermione raced down and she saw that they were pointing their wands at McGonagall. By then, Ron and Harry managed to catch up with her.
"Expelliarmus!" Hermione yelled at one of the Aurors and when the Auror heard it, he
turned and it was a perfect hit to the chest.
"Protego Horribilis!" Harry yelled as he pointed his wand at McGonagall. That would
protect her from any spells they cast.
The Aurors started casting spells at them, but they all dodged them.
"Harry!" Hermione screamed. Harry looked over and saw Umbridge fire a spell at him.
He ducked just in time. In order to keep Umbridge busy, he yelled, "Serpensortia!"
A snake shot out of his wand and landed near Umbridge.
"That will keep her busy." Ron said.
"Immobulus!" Hermione yelled and pointed her wand at the Aurors. They could no
longer cast spells. Umbridge was busy with the snake and the Aurors had been stopped.
Hermione and Harry ran down to McGonagall and Ron still had his wand pointed at
Umbridge.
"Harry, there is a low pulse, you need to call for help!" Hermione said as tears built up in
her eyes.
"How, by the time I get to the castle it could be too late!" Harry said.
"Shoot red sparks in the air! Do something!" Hermione said.
Harry fired red sparks in the air.
Just then Umbridge fired a spell and got rid of the snake and then freed the aurors.
"After that giant! They seem to not want our help." Umbridge ordered and the aurors
went after Hagrid. Umbridge stayed behind.
"How could you let them do this?" Hermione screamed at Umbridge.
"Harry! I see Snape and Madam Pomfrey coming!" Ron yelled.
Snape and Madam Pomfrey made their way down. Madam Pomfrey gasped.
"What happened?" Snape asked with anger.
"Severus, I was coming down here to see what was going on and I found these three
huddled around her and then they tried to attack me." Umbridge lied.
"What! No!" Ron yelled.
"We were coming down to see Hagrid and Umbridge was down here with four aurors
who attacked Professor McGonagall for trying to help Hagrid!" Hermione said.
"Out of my way!" Madam Pomfrey said as she got to McGonagall. "I will need to get her
up to the castle." She said as she grabbed McGonagall and aparated to the castle.
"Snape, we would never hurt her! We were helping her!" Harry said.
"Silence Potter!" Snape said.
"Snape, it is student's words against the headmistress." Umbridge said.
"Professor, you could even read our minds or go back in time and we would be telling the
truth." Ron said.
Snape looked at Harry, Ron, and Hermione. Hermione was now crying.
"Professor, she is trying to take everyone away from Harry so he doesn't have anyone to
turn to, please believe us. Professor McGonagall was the only one left fighting against
Umbridge to help Harry, to help the school, to help Hagrid!" Hermione said.
"That is ridiculous!" Umbridge said with anger. "I have had enough, you three up to the
castle and you will have a week of detention for attacking a teacher!"
Ron and Harry turned away, but Hermione stayed. She had enough. She looked at Snape
as tears rolled down her face.
"Wait Potter, Weasley." Snape ordered. Ron and Harry stopped and turned around.
"Snape, I gave them a direct order to go to the castle along with Ms. Granger." Umbridge
said.
"Go, now all of you." Snape said but you could tell he wasn't happy saying that even
though he was saying it to the top three students he hated. Hermione walked up to join
Ron and Harry and she fell into Ron's arms crying.
"Harry, she was the only one left," Hermione cried. "Umbridge now has total control
over the school." She then reached into her back pocket and pulled out McGonagall's
wand.
"Harry! Your lessons with Snape! Remember that memory!" Ron said.
"With Umbridge in charge it is too risky. If she finds out she could find out about the
Order."
"Harry, I mean right now. We wait for Snape to come up then it wouldn't look like a
lesson. It would look like a teacher looking for answers." Hermione said.
Harry nodded with agreement and stopped to wait for Snape. Soon they saw him coming
with Umbridge.
"I ordered you to go to the castle!" Umbridge said when she saw them.
"Professor, remember the connections I have in my head." Harry said to hint at him.
"Connections? What connections? What is he talking about Snape?" Umbridge asked.
Snape looked at Harry.
"I have no idea." Snape said and then walked past them.
"You do know!" Hermione yelled at him. Ron and Harry had never seen her this upset.
Snape didn't turn around.
"Up to your dorms." Umbridge ordered. They didn't fight back, they just went up.
Two Days later
It had been two days since they were accused of attacking Professor McGonagall. None
of the teachers were very pleasant to them because Umbridge told them that they
attacked her.
"Harry, we have to find out if McGonagall has awaken at St. Mungo's. She is the only
one beside us and Hagrid who know the truth." Hermione said.
"We can't leave Hogwarts, Hermione." Ron said.
"Ron's right, we have to just wait." Harry said.
"And let Umbridge keep giving us detention and putting more and more scars on us
everyday? We have done nothing wrong!" Hermione said.
"Hermione, nobody is left for us to go to! Dumbledore is gone! Hagrid is gone! Professor
McGonagall is gone! Snape isn't bothering to find the truth!" Harry said.
"Harry, the school could be in danger without Dumbledore here. Voldemort only fears
him." Hermione argued.
"I know, I want to go and find him so badly but there is no way out of the castle! If we
keep making trouble, we will only get hurt more!" Harry yelled.
"What has gotten into you Harry? Ron and I finally are fighting Umbridge like you and
now you are pushing away?" Hermione said.
"Hermione! Nobody understands! Nobody else but me understands what is going on! If I
get too angry, Voldemort will feel it and then get inside my head and make it worse! I
can see what he can! I was the snake!"
Hermione and Ron just looked at him.
"Harry, you and Hermione are both right, but there has to be a way to stop Umbridge.
Everyday she is here the school becomes worse and worse and if Voldemort attacks here,
nobody will be ready." Ron said.
"It is almost time for our O.W.L.S." Harry said as he stood and walked out of the room.
