In the other world

- Kakashi!... Obito was running towards him down the wide corridor as fast as he could, waving his hand. - Kakashi!... The ash-haired man turned around and waved back. - Obito-san! Hatake smiled. Uchiha stopped next to him, putting his hands on his knees and trying to catch his breath after a fast run. - We have our first lesson together today, remember? - Yes. Shall we go? Instead of answering, the brunette just nodded. They went on, went down the stairs, turned left, went through again and soon found themselves at the right classroom. It was a Defense against the Dark Arts room. The subject was quite popular at school because of its outstanding teacher. The professor explained the material in an interesting way and allowed him to be called "Professor Jiraiya", although teachers and students were usually addressed by their last names. - Today we are going to study a creature called a boggart,- the Professor announced when the lesson began. - Boggart? - Yes. Boggarts are such creatures that take on an image that, in his opinion, will most frighten the one who sees it. But there is a special spell against them - Riddiculus. Does anyone know what it does? - Riddiculus is a spell used to change boggart. It "turns" him into something scary and funny, and laughter destroys the ghost," Kakashi raised his hand. - Well done! For the answer, I will add five points to Ravenclaw. Unfortunately, we won't be able to practice, but if you feel like it, I can try to find someone. Maybe it won't be soon, but it will be, - Jiraiya winked. - Do you want to? - Yes! - Great! Then from now on, I'll do the search. If I find it, I'll definitely call you. In the meantime, let's see what our textbook says about him... That's how the lesson went. After the lesson, the guys left the office, discussing today's topic. - What do you think Boggart could become for one of us? - Uchiha asked thoughtfully. - I don't know... It's weird, but I don't know what I'm afraid of... - The same thing, - Obito nodded. - On the one hand, I have many different fears... Only they're not that scary. That's why I also don't understand what I'm most afraid of. Although... Maybe I do, but it's hardly possible right now, right? - Uchiha smiled encouragingly. - Yeah... - Then we have nothing to fear! We are not afraid of anything! - Obito declared, hugging Kakashi with one arm. When it was time for the next lesson, the friends had to part ways, since this time the lectures for their faculties were held separately. Obito went to Potions, and Kakashi went to Spells.

Classes fly by pretty quickly when you know what to do with yourself. In a lesson with Professor Senju, they studied a new spell. After the lesson, Kakashi went out into the corridor, where he noticed Uchiha in a strange mood. He was walking towards him, but did not seem to notice him. On the way, he cursed softly under his breath. There was a Band-Aid on his cheek. - You can go to lessons without sticks, you can go to lessons without sticks... - Obito? Hatake called out to him. Uchiha looked up at him. - Kakashi... - What happened? The brunette lowered his head again, rummaged in his backpack and handed him a few wooden splinters in the palm of his hand. - It was my magic wand once... Kakashi's eyes widened. - Yes, you urgently need a new one! - The only question is, where can I get it? Go to Diagon Alley on vacation? They are still quite a long time away... - Should I ask one of the professors? - I don't know what they can do... Okay, I'll figure something out... - Maybe I should send an owl with a letter and a request to pick up the same one? - What if it doesn't fit? It is necessary that the wizard chooses the wand. So we'll go home for the Christmas holidays... - Okay... - Don't you want to? If not, I'll come up with something else. - What? No, it's okay! I was just thinking about what I can do at home... - That's how it is... Clearly. I wonder if you can go straight to Hogwarts after Diagon Alley?... Don't wait for the end of the holidays? Kakashi just shrugged his shoulders. - I still hope that it is possible. I don't want to sit alone in a dark empty house... Are you going to celebrate with your father? - I don't think so... - M? Why? - I haven't heard from my father for a long time, although I wrote to him... - Ah... I see... Well, maybe he's just busy, or did the owl lose the letter? Or... what if someone intercepts them?.. - I hope so... Uchiha hugged his friend, trying to drive away bad thoughts.

Obito caught up with Kakashi by grabbing his shoulder. - Come on... rather... I'm going to show you this... phew... - Huh? Uchiha took him by the wrist and dragged him somewhere. - W-where are we going? - Hatake asked uncertainly and obviously surprised. - Surprise... Obito, smiling, dragged him to the right place and looked at the wall. - Where do you want to go now? - Hmm... To Diagon Alley to buy you a new wand, - Hatake smiled. - Well, damn it... Okay, let's see what happens. Focus on this place, walk past the wall three times and look at it. Kakashi nodded and followed the instructions. Tall double doors appeared in front of them, right out of the wall. Nodding to each other, the guys went inside. Inside they saw a store, the shelves of which were just filled with magic wands. - It's impressive. Is this probably a Room of Requirement? - Yeah... Obito looked around and went to one of the shelves. Taking one, Uchiha lightly waved his wand. - I wonder if she won't disappear when we leave this room? - Maybe we should... oh... look! Obito went to another shelf and picked up a light cloth from it. - The invisibility cloak! I can use it to go to Hogsmeade with you! Come on... Uchiha wrapped himself in a robe and disappeared from sight. - Well, how is it? Is it working? Can you see me? - I hear it, but I don't see it. Kakashi felt someone put their hands on his shoulders from behind. Hatake tensed a little, but he still knew that it was Obito, and he wouldn't hurt him. Meanwhile, Uchiha's arms reached out, hugging Kakashi. Hatake smiled and hugged his hands. Obito laughed softly. - Let's choose a wand for you. - Yeah. Pacing between the shelves, they tried one stick after another, until finally they found the right one. When a shower of sparks burst from the tip, the guys realized that she was coming. - Now you don't have to worry. Thank you, - Uchiha smiled. - It's too early to thank, you need to try it out and make sure that it's real. - Shall we go out into the corridor? Kakashi nodded, after which they left the Room of Requirement. When the door disappeared, Obito looked at his new magic wand. - I stayed. And the robe is in place. - Cool. - Yeah. We can still come here whenever we want. And you can take sweets here. Although... I want to see Hogsmeade too. - Yeah. Sleep soon... - Okay. Let me take you to your tower and go to my room. - Let's go. Obito led Kakashi to his living room. - Well, here we are. - Thank you, - Hatake smiled and hugged his friend goodbye. Obito hugged him back, after which the guys went to their rooms.
