Pettigrew is also an Animagus, and has been hiding as Ron's rat Scabbers this whole time. Black claims that the crimes attributed to him were actually committed by Pettigrew, who escaped suspicion by faking his own death. Lupin disarms Harry, then explains why he believes Black to be innocent. Harry and Hermione reach the Shack, followed by Lupin, who spots them on Harry's map. The dog is revealed to be Black in his Animagus form. The dog drags Ron into a secret tunnel and disappears, coming out on the other side, inside the Shrieking Shack in Hogsmeade. As they walk back to the castle with Scabbers, Ron is attacked by a large dog. Harry, Ron and Hermione visit Hagrid at his hut, and are surprised to find Ron's missing pet rat, Scabbers, hiding there. Hiding inside a pub, he overhears a conversation in which he learns that Black is actually his godfather, and that he killed his own best friend, Peter Pettigrew, while also betraying Harry's father, James, to Voldemort. Harry uses it to sneak into Hogsmeade without permission. Harry is given a secret map by Fred and George Weasley, which reveals everyone inside the castle and its grounds. Meanwhile, Black is reported to have been sighted in the village of Hogsmeade, close to Hogwarts. Lupin teaches Harry the incredibly difficult Patronus charm, but Harry is able to produce a full-bodied Patronus to fight off the Dementors. Harry is unusually affected by their presence, and asks help from Remus Lupin, the new Defence Against the Dark Arts teacher, in learning to repel them. While there, Harry is warned that a former follower of Voldemort, named Sirius Black, is seeking him out after having escaped from the wizard prison, Azkaban.Īt Hogwarts, the guards of Azkaban, known as the Dementors, patrol the school looking for Black. Harry packs up his stuff and leaves the house, choosing to spend the last weeks of summer at the Leaky Cauldron inn in London. When he and his late parents are insulted by Marge, an angry Harry accidentally inflates her. While Harry is living with the Dursleys, Aunt Marge comes to visit.
