The two men walked up to the animals and stared at them. The animals stared back and looked like they were trying to communicate.
"I wunder where these came from," Rubeus said.
"I dunno, but Fang'll be hungry now. How about we give him these, which should fill him up." Another giant said.

The animals eyes widened and they began running around frantically. Ron had begun barking but stopped after realising it would make him more like an animal.

"What if these turn out to be animagus’s?" Hagrid said.
"Nah, else they'd 'ave transformed back or ran by now. These are what the man called lunch."
"I never got to know 'im properly. When I got there he was happy, a few days later he was killed by the new guy."
"Well, he was good," The giant said sadly. "Pity he went, they were getting more human as well. Anyway, let's not get this get in the way of Fang's lunch. Just in case it escapes," He said raising his wand.

The animals moved frantically, endlessly trying to communicate before they were dog lunch.

"Finite Incantaum," he said.

The animals suddenly changed into 3 human teenagers.

"Good job yeh haven't learnt the next spell. Else you'd be stuck like that forever," Hagrid said chuckling.
"Fang would 'ave liked you," Reid Quarterman said.
"How did you know?" Ron asked.
"We saw you walk out of the main doors. Didn't want you to get eaten, did we?" Professor Quarterman said.
"You better get inside before anyone sees you, it's late." Hagrid said escorting them back to the castle.

They walked into the castle and remembered why they had escaped in the first place.
"Lockhart," Harry muttered.
"I guess yeh heard. I thought you'd find out." Hagrid said. "You always do."
"What do you mean?" Professor Quarterman said.
"In their first year, they found the secretly hidden philosopher's stone. And they saved it from you-know-who."
"Really?"
"Didn't really save it, it got smashed." Harry said telling the whole story.
"You saved it from the Dark Lord, which is good enough." Quarterman said.

"Anyway, how come you two are such good friends?" Ron said.
"Ah, well. You could say we're cousins," Hagrid said.
"What? How?" Harry said.
"I'm Grawp's cousin, Hagrid's Grawp's brother. 1 + 2 = 3." He said.
"Whoa, when did you find out, Hagrid?" Ron asked.
"A few days ago. I was with Grawp in the forest and Reid walking into the area. He was surprised to see Grawp alive and told me he was his cousin."

"Right, we're at your common room now. Go on in, we have a lesson tomorrow and I want you guys to be prepared."
"Ok, Professor," Hermione said walking into the portrait hole.
