Darkrai and Ceruledge Receive Their… Assignment
Keith, calmly sipping tea, called them.
Keith:
"I need you two to quietly follow Ron, Neville, and Seamus.
Protect them if it gets dangerous."
Darkrai froze.
Ceruledge tilted its head.
Darkrai (telepathy):
"Master… forgive my bluntness.
But is there not a more dignified mission?"
Ceruledge:
clang clang (translation: "Babysit the imbeciles?")
Keith:
"Yes. Just this once."
Both sighed.
Darkrai:
"…We obey, Master.
But if they do something stupid, I'm blaming YOU."
Keith smiled.
Keith:
"That's fair."
And they vanished.
🏃♂️🧨 The Stupid Trio Begin Their 'Heroic Quest'
Ron led the group dramatically.
Ron:
"Stay close, lads.
Dangerous magic protects the Stone."
Neville tripped over his robe.
Seamus set his sleeve on fire.
Darkrai, following in the shadows, was already tired.
🚪 TRAP 1: Fluffy the Cerberus — Now on "Puppy Level"
The room with Fluffy the three-headed dog.
But Dumbledore had "kindergartened" the challenge.
Fluffy was:
Asleep Wearing pink bows Listening to a lullaby Drooling on a stuffed sheep toy
Ron entered bravely, then:
Ron:
"AHHH A MONSTER!!!"
Fluffy didn't move.
Neville whispered:
Neville:
"He looks… cute?"
Seamus:
"Might adopt him."
They walked past him easily.
Darkrai facepalmed.
Ceruledge sighed sparks.
**🧵 TRAP 2: Devil's Snare — Difficulty: Level 0
("Hug Vine™")**
Dumbledore downgraded it to:
A harmless, fluffy plant That giggled when touched And tickled their ankles
The trio fell into it screaming.
Ron:
"WE'RE GOING TO DIE!"
Neville:
"It's… it's tickling me—AHH!"
Seamus:
"It's possessed!!"
Darkrai simply hovered and stared.
Finally:
Darkrai (telepathy):
"…Just stand up."
The boys stood.
Walked out.
Alive.
Ceruledge's flames flickered in disbelief.
🔑 TRAP 3: The Flying Keys — Difficulty: Baby Mode
The keys flew at the speed of lazy butterflies.
One bumped Seamus in the forehead, apologizing with a chiming noise.
Ron grabbed the correct key immediately.
Or rather:
The key got pity and flew into his hand.
Ron grinned.
Ron:
"I. Am. A. Genius."
Darkrai whispered:
"…This is painful."
♟️ TRAP 4: Wizard's Chess — Difficulty: Auto-Win Mode
Dumbledore had enchanted it so:
All enemy pieces surrendered immediately The board bowed when Ron stepped on it It said: "Congratulations, Young Hero!"
Ron puffed his chest.
Ron:
"See? Natural chess prodigy."
Neville:
"I think it cheated in your favor."
Seamus:
"Good. I hate chess."
Ceruledge placed a hand to its helmet like it had a migraine.
🧩 TRAP 5: Logic Puzzle — Difficulty: Toddler Tier
Original: A famous potion riddle.
Dumbledore's edited version:
"Which bottle says YES?"
The bottle literally had a giant glitter label:
"YES!"
Neville solved it.
Neville:
"I… I think it's this one."
Ron:
"Of course! I was just about to say that."
Darkrai muttered:
"…Sure you were."
🔮 The Final Door
The trio reached the final chamber.
Seamus raised his wand.
Neville gulped.
Ron announced:
Ron:
"Boys… we're about to become LEGENDS."
Darkrai whispered:
"…Gods help us all."
Ceruledge ignited its swords, ready in case things went horribly wrong.
(Which, statistically, was guaranteed.)
