Draco Malfoy's newly-wedded wife wondered through Diagon Alley, a scowl forming on her usually beautiful features. The baby was kicking again. Silently cursing the next mini-Malfoy she was currently carrying around with her and would be for no longer than a few more days, she walked down the side of an old shop, leaning against the stone wall.
"Miss!" An unknown voice rasped from nearby.
Astoria glanced around, startled by the sudden exclamation.
"Wh-who's there?" she growled warningly.
"Kreacher is stuck in the wall!"
"Did you just say what I thought you said?"
"Yes, Kreacher is down here." the creature answered.
Eventually the stern-faced woman noticed that the house elf was, indeed, lodged inside the wall. All she could see was a wrinkled face with a long, hooked nose.
"What in Merlin's name are you doing down there?" she snapped impatiently.
"Could Miss please...pull Kreacher out?" he croaked, avoiding the question.
Reluctantly, Astoria bent over slightly, though it was a challenging task considering the fact that she was heavily pregnant. With great difficulty, she tugged on Kreacher's ears, finally freeing him.
Afterwards, she doubled over in pain, "The baby's coming!"
