Your greatest fear come to life!

Have fun dealing with it, human!
Hope had taken a few steps back, half-suspecting what might be inside. And she was right! Spilling out of the trunk were dozens of baby animals of all kinds, all sick and dying and crying out. It was the very worst thing Hope could imagine! "Oh, no!" she cried out softly to herself, then "Don't look!" to the tiny moke--she wasn't even sure if it was still on her shoulder. How did one deal with a boggart? Hope knew she knew this, but it was hard to think with all these emotions going on.

Oh, right--laughter. Find a way to laugh at it. Easier said than done, because there was nothing funny about dying animals as far as Hope was concerned. But finally, in the back of her shocked brain, there came the germ of a thought. Shakily she raised her wand and in a as bold a voice as she could manage she cried out, "Riddikulus!" As she did so, she imagined all the animals springing up and shouting out, "Just fooling!" in little squeaky voices.
