Hogwarts: Storm Chaser

October 31, 1973, Halloween.

The entire Hogwarts Castle has been cleaned and brand new inside and out.

The armor that can be seen everywhere in the corridor has been polished;

The prizes in the prize display room were swept away from the dust, and the names on them shimmered, representing their contributions to the school;

The portrait was carefully wiped, and the character in it happily welcomed the arrival of Christmas while painfully touching his exposed skin.

The huge pumpkin that Hagrid planted was also hollowed out, placed with magic candles, and placed in various places in the castle by the professors.

Early in the morning, the entire Hogwarts was filled with the sweet scent of pumpkin.

The students put on strange costumes one after another and played and played in class.

The professors looked on with smiles, their eyes full of soft light, and when they saw them, it was like seeing their former selves.

Although tomorrow is Halloween, the school has no plans to give students a holiday, whether it is today or tomorrow.

Today we only allow the children to indulge a little bit, and the professors have also lowered their standards. Tomorrow, of course, classes will be as normal.

Ralph and the others are already quite famous in school, and their outfits today attracted everyone's attention.

Especially the girls, they never imagined that Ralph would look so cute in a plush monster suit.

Moreover, the ugly-looking troll could turn out to be so cute, which instantly touched the hearts of many little wizards.

Claude and the others thought that Ralph's obedient expression was the cutest when he was in front of Mrs. Romestad.

He has a low eyebrow, a sweet smile on his face, and his eyes are crooked.

It's completely different from his usual cold demeanor.

Amidst the constant excitement, time passed by in a hurry, and the dinner that everyone was most looking forward to came.

I don’t know what the professors are wearing this time?

Coming to the auditorium, light and darkness coexist.

The ceiling is a dark cloud flashing with thunder, and it makes roaring sounds from time to time.

Above, large and small pumpkin lanterns floated, flickering candlelight, illuminating the entire auditorium with the power of magic.

Pieces of tiny snowflakes fell from beneath the jack-o-lantern, and with the scattered candlelight, passed through the food and the long table, and melted on the ground.

Filch was dressed as an evil ghost today, and the pale green light of the lantern shone on his white face, creating a full atmosphere.

"You must be obedient tonight, otherwise, I will punish you with those little cuties. Hehehe!"

"Meow!"

Filch turned his head violently and said fiercely to the little wizard behind him. Mrs. Norris, who had a pair of black wings and black makeup beside her, also let out a "meow" in response to the situation.

This actually scared many freshmen.

With a satisfied evil smile, Filch opened the door to the auditorium.

Little wizards poured in one after another, a little strange, where are the professors?

Without thinking too much, they walked to the long tables of their respective colleges with their own unique costumes.

"Peng!"

There was an explosion, and colorful streamers dropped into the air, slowly turning pale and disappearing.

"Wow! Cool!" "Merlin!" "The professor is so cute!"

The little wizards who were attracted by the scene in the sky quickly came back to their senses.

I saw professors walking out of giant pumpkins in different costumes.

Professor McGonagall dressed herself up as a humanoid black cat. Not only did she grow cat ears, but she also had a cat tail that swayed behind her.

Beast Boy, who also had cat whiskers painted on her face and her own eyes changed to brown, looked at the students cheering for her with a gentle smile.

Professor Flitwick went against his petite norm and transformed himself into a rugged elf, wearing armor and with two forward-curving spikes on his helmet.

The armor is covered with traces of corrosion from time, and combined with the scars and lines on the professor's face and the rusty sword at his waist, it really looks like he has just come out of the battlefield.

Professor Sprout's costume is that of a witch, well, it's just her, but it's different from usual, her body is covered with plants.

The hat on the head is a piece of grass, without soil, with small flowers of various colors blooming and withering on it.

A series of vines spread out behind them, twisting in the air, and climbing towards the professor next to them from time to time. Professor Sprout had to hit them.

Professor Sgrughorn dressed himself up as a huge fat bat, with two bat ears trembling on his head, and folded wings folded behind his back. Each time he unfolded them, the students exclaimed.

Principal Dumbledore put on the suit and turned himself into a human phoenix, with flames igniting and extinguishing around him from time to time.

However, he obviously aroused Fox's dissatisfaction. Fox stopped on his shoulder and pecked his head non-stop.

The principal had already covered his head with magic. Every time Fox pecked it, he could only touch a layer of magic shield.

This made him even angry at Dumbledore.

Under the leadership of Dumbledore, the teachers came to their seats and sat down, looking left and right, eh? Why is there an extra empty seat?

Oh, no, there is one person missing. Where is Hagrid?

They looked at the largest pumpkin, and many little wizards were looking there. Some covered their mouths and chuckled, and some laughed wantonly.

Hagrid blushed and looked at Dumbledore for help.

He was stuck in the pumpkin and couldn't get out, and he couldn't use force for fear of bursting the pumpkin.

Seeing this scene, Ralph and the others also laughed.

Principal Dumbledore smiled helplessly, raised his wand and waved it, and Hagrid came out of the pumpkin.

Hagrid scratched his head, smiled sheepishly, walked quickly to his seat, sat down, and drank a glass of pumpkin juice to calm down his shock.

Dumbledore stood up and raised his hands. The auditorium immediately became quiet. There was only the sound of candles burning. Everyone looked at him.

“It’s another Halloween dinner, and I’m so happy to be able to spend this wonderful holiday with you all.”

A burst of applause sounded, making the dark castle brightly lit and full of joy.

"Thank you, thank you everyone. I want to say one more thing."

The principal looked at every little wizard with his gentle eyes, and everyone put down their hands.

"This castle will not only be your home today, it will also be the home of some special guests."

As soon as he finished speaking, a series of exclamations sounded from the long table below.

The ghost show is coming.

They lined up neatly and rushed towards the little wizards, causing waves of shouts.

What follows is Ms. Gray's ethereal and poignant singing, which seems to be telling the boundary between life and death, and the past, present and future of this castle.

From darkness to light, this makes the first-year students who must take the history of magic seriously feel the same way, as if they have come to that era and seen the scenes of ancestors devoting everything for our survival.
