Chapter 254: Forbidden Forest Pursuit
Allen glanced in the direction Crookshanks had been heading, and his gaze instantly froze: at the edge of the Forbidden Forest stood a black shadow, the silhouette of a large dog...
In the next moment, Allen recognized the familiar feeling: that was the black large dog they had encountered that day; that large dog was Sirius Black!
Allen's heart immediately grew anxious: that stupid cat, Crookshanks, had actually run over there to play; it probably didn't even know danger was approaching.
"Now it doesn't look quite like him anymore," Harry muttered, "What do you think, Allen?" Harry turned around and said.
In the next moment, he discovered that Allen was no longer in the dormitory...
"How did Allen suddenly disappear?" Harry and Ron exchanged a glance and said in confusion.
Allen had already quietly slipped out of the dormitory, found a place with no one around, transformed into a bat, and flew rapidly toward the spot he had just seen.
He had already made up his mind; rescuing Crookshanks was one aspect, but he also wanted to take this opportunity to capture Sirius Black, tie him up, and throw him directly at the entrance of Hogwarts Castle to completely eliminate this hidden threat.
His previous confrontation with Sirius Black had given him some understanding of Sirius Black's strength.
Allen felt that with his current strength, taking down Sirius Black was not a difficult matter; many of his trump cards were unseen by people in this magical world, so naturally, there would be no defenses against them.
Therefore, Allen had sufficient confidence in defeating and capturing Sirius Black again.
He flew quickly through the air, but a bat's vision was not very good, so he soon transformed into an eagle; the black large dog was still at the edge of the Forbidden Forest, and it seemed to be looking in the direction of Crookshanks.
Sirius Black must have already discovered Crookshanks, yet that stupid cat, Crookshanks, remained completely unaware...
Allen's heart grew even more anxious; he flapped his wings even faster, disregarded hiding his form, and dove straight toward the black large dog.
The black large dog also noticed the eagle flying in the sky; in the next moment, it felt something was wrong and realized the danger.
It suddenly turned and ran into the Forbidden Forest, plunging into the dense bushes.
Allen dove from the sky and missed completely, but he was not discouraged; he immediately pulled up in altitude. Can something running on the ground outrun me flying in the sky?
Reality quickly slapped Allen in the face; flying in the air, he soon lost track of the black large dog. His eagle-eye vision was excellent, but now the trees in the Forbidden Forest had grown leaves, making it impossible to see the ground clearly; furthermore, eagles typically hunt in relatively open grasslands, and an eagle's eyes were simply not suited for distinguishing such a complex environment.
He quickly transformed his eyes into an owl's eyes; this gave him night vision, allowing him to see things on the ground, but the environment on the ground was still too complex; once the black large dog dived into a bush, Allen could no longer find it.
Allen had to abandon the idea of searching from the sky; he dove rapidly toward the place where the black large dog had last appeared, landed, and immediately transformed into a leopard; leopards were the kings of hunting in the mountains and forests, and they ran very fast.
He lowered his head to sniff the scent on the ground; the scent on the black large dog was as conspicuous as a bright lamp in the night sky, and he quickly followed the scent to pursue it.
His fur was as smooth as satin; the various branches and bushes in the Forbidden Forest could not slow his speed at all.
The black large dog also seemed to realize the approaching danger; it knew it was no match for the strange Animagus behind it, so it ran even harder.
Allen actually couldn't catch up for a while; he couldn't even see the black large dog's figure, only constantly sniffing the scent on the ground to identify the direction.
This frantic chase and escape came to an abrupt end very quickly.
Allen stopped in front of a small river; he had now completely lost the black large dog's scent.
However, he still found no water traces on the opposite bank; unwilling to give up, he transformed into an owl and searched downstream along the small river...
But after searching for quite a while, he still could not find the black large dog's figure.
Suddenly, a cloud came, blocking the moon in the sky; the Forbidden Forest became even darker, making Allen's search even more difficult.
Allen was still worried about that stupid cat, Crookshanks, so he had to give up the search, turned around, and flew toward Hogwarts Castle...
Meanwhile, upstream of the small river, a burst of bubbles suddenly surged beneath a patch of water; a black large dog burst out from underwater, greedily breathing the air, then immediately dove back into the water; that enemy just now was too terrifying; it still had to be careful and watch out for his return strike...
Allen returned to the vicinity of the Quidditch pitch; that stupid cat, Crookshanks, was carelessly catching insects; Allen, transformed into an eagle, dove rapidly, glided lightly over the grass, and before Crookshanks could react, Allen had grabbed it and flown up into the sky.
Crookshanks did not struggle wildly; instead, it became excited, seemingly enjoying the feeling of flight, meowing at the ground.
Allen, holding Crookshanks, landed in a dark corner of the castle, hugged it, and walked toward the Gryffindor Tower; Crookshanks never expected that the person it hated most, who stole its catnip, would suddenly appear and hug it; immediately, it struggled.
Ignoring its protests, Allen delivered it to Hermione's side.
Hermione was very happy that Allen could help her find Crookshanks, but a shadow fell over Allen's heart.
When he returned to the dormitory again, actually less than half an hour had passed; Harry and Ron still had not finished their Divination homework.
They curiously asked where Allen had run off to; Allen just made a few evasive remarks and returned to his bed.
Lying in bed, he began to review the events of today.
Sirius Black's cunning exceeded his imagination; he had used all his methods but still failed to catch him, which raised his evaluation of Sirius Black another level.
At the same time, he was still considering whether to tell the school or the Ministry of Magic about today's events, but today's events were too absurd; a third-year student unintentionally saw Sirius Black, then tracked him for half a day; just thinking about it felt completely ridiculous.
If he told the school or the Ministry of Magic, they definitely would not believe him; they would only think he was talking nonsense.
Moreover, this would likely expose some of his hidden abilities; otherwise, there would be no way to explain how he tracked Sirius Black.
