The edge of the Forbidden Forest.
Felix saw a little wizard desperately fleeing towards the Forbidden Forest from afar. He raised his wand, estimated the distance, and shook his hand to cast a spell the moment he landed.
The little wizard seemed to have expected it, and dodged the spell with agility that was completely inconsistent with his age.
"Sirius Black, why don't we talk."
Felix walked towards him step by step. The effect of the Polyjuice Potion that Black had taken before was disappearing, and his body was gradually changing. He grew taller little by little, and his body was stretched and widened.
He panted and staggered forward. When he stepped into the Forbidden Forest, the whole person seemed to be hit hard by a punch. His body was stiff for a few seconds, and finally fell down.
The transformation began.
He curled up, trembling all over, and gasped in his throat. His skin was covered with fine bubbles like hot wax. His fingers began to grow larger and thicker. A skinny, adult hand dug into the brown, wet soil on the ground. The joints protruded from the force, and the nails dug deep into it. Black let out
a low roar, and his shoulders became broad. The loose robe was stretched up, but it did not break. There was no flesh on this man. Felix
waited quietly. It might take two or three minutes for the others to arrive. He had enough time.
The transformation was over. Black lay on his back on the ground, gasping for breath, and seemed to have given up resistance. He said hoarsely: "Who are you? You are so young, you should be--" He stood up and shot a Stunning Spell from his wand.
Felix was prepared. Even in the most painful moment, Black did not put down the wand in his hand.
He waved his wand to deflect the spell, and a ball of red flame flew towards him and exploded in mid-air. Thanks to the Humanoid Armor Charm, he was unharmed. He frowned and looked at the spot where he had left a wand, and Black's figure had disappeared.
Felix checked it carefully and found that the wand was real, not Transfiguration, which surprised him a little.
"Escape by transforming into an Animagus? Are you giving up resistance? How can you be my opponent without a wand? You even lost the last hope of Apparition."
Felix tapped the ring on his left hand, and a flying broom suddenly appeared. Felix rode the broom into the sky.
Below him was a large blur of brown and gray. He gently lifted the broom handle and climbed up, fifty feet, a hundred feet, and in the distance, he saw a big black dog running along the rugged road of the Forbidden Forest. His speed was amazing, like a wisp of light black smoke.
But now the weather has just warmed up, and the trees in the forest are only dark brown dead branches, and the leaves on the branches are sparse, which can't serve as a barrier or block the line of sight, so Felix will not lose him at all.
At a stream, he caught up with Black, and a blazing red beam hit the big black dog, knocking him far away.
Six or seven meters away, Felix stopped: "Change back, into a person, Sirius Black."
The big black dog struggled to raise his head and look at him. After a moment, his body began to transform for the second time. This time the transformation was very fast, but equally strange. His body was shrinking, and a dirty man appeared in the original position.
If he didn't move, he would look like a corpse, and there must be many people who think that he suffered inhuman torture in his life-dirty, tangled long hair hung down to his elbows, and it looked like he hadn't been taken care of for a long time; his body was stuck with mud, and you could vaguely see the pale skin on his cheeks without a trace of flesh.
Black smiled softly, his eyes like a wolf. He said hoarsely, "You are the student of Snivellus? Felix Hep... famous. I saw the cover of Wizard Weekly. To be honest, he is not as good-looking as you are."
Felix said calmly, "Although I have a lot of questions to ask you, but--"
He pointed his wand at Black, "Clean it up!" A string of bubbles came out of Black's mouth, and he coughed for a long time before stopping.
He slowly used the stream water to look at his teeth, "Very creative idea, we used it on Snivellus when we were young, and James got a scar on his face because of it."
Felix shook his head, "I have heard your story from many people. In their eyes, Sirius Black is handsome, unrestrained, and inadvertently elegant. Look at you now--"
He waved his wand, and a tornado-shaped vortex rolled up from the stream, which completely swallowed Black.
Blake's eyes suddenly widened, he opened his mouth, and uttered "Old - Rat -" with difficulty, but the water covered his words and choked him twice.
The water flowed over him, and after about ten seconds, a ball of dirty muddy water was thrown back into the stream. After the wash, he looked much better than at the beginning. Although he was still skinny, he could vaguely see a trace of his youth.
Black was suspended in the air, with his head tilted, and said with some surprise: "You don't want to kill me?"
"Why? I said, I have a lot to talk to you about, your betrayal, your prison break - oh, the latter needless to say, Animagus, it's already very obvious."
"Take me to see Dumbledore! I will confess everything without reservation."
"Can't you tell me now? I am very curious, but some questions are not suitable to be asked in public, such as the grudge between Severus and the Potters, such as some information about Voldemort."
"Heh! Are you planning to sell me to the Ministry of Magic, or give me to Snotlout as a gift? You must be his favorite student, he even told you these secrets..." Black said with a sneer, and a gust of wind suddenly blew up, and his body couldn't stop shaking.
"I don't like the name you call me. If you insist on provoking me--" Felix gestured with his wand and blinked, "You will definitely suffer."
Black said nonchalantly: "Torture, to a man who has been in Azkaban for twelve years? Everything you do only makes me feel that I am still alive--"
His teeth were chattering with cold, but his eyes were still fixed on Felix.
Felix's wand touched Black's chest, and a large cloud of steam came out of his body, and his body suddenly became dry.
Black fell to the ground. He moved his hands and feet and looked at Felix with uncertainty, "Aren't you afraid that I will escape? Why don't you tie me up?"
"You can think that I am expressing goodwill to facilitate the subsequent communication." Felix said.
Black stared at him with sunken eyes and grinned, "I like you a little bit, but-I still can't trust you, you are too close to Snape."
Felix noticed that his expression had become calm, so he asked tentatively: "Does it matter to you whether you believe it or not? Do you still have a choice?"
"Of course, don't underestimate anyone. Go back and tell Dumbledore that the kid, the Weasley family, the one who is Harry's classmate, his pet mouse is an Animagus." Black said, he didn't know about Scabbers' disappearance yet.
"Animagus?" Felix repeated.
"Yes, he is Peter Pettigrew, he is not dead - damn it! I thought he was dead!" Black suddenly said angrily, cursing wildly, and after a long time, he barely calmed down, "I'm sorry to let you see this, but I have been suppressed for too long."
"You want to say that Peter is a traitor? When you are the secret keeper?" Felix said.
"Not me - we exchanged in the end! Me and him, we exchanged, he is the secret keeper! Dumbledore will understand, as long as Peter is caught, everything will be revealed."
"I think you'd better tell Dumbledore these things in person."
