There is screaming. He hears it all the way down in the dungeons, and already knows what it means. He has heard it before.

Silently he watches it, unnoticed by the gathered crowd. He watch Sirius storming off and his mother's angry elegance.
And knowing that he can not do anything, he turns into the Great Hall for lunch.
