"Should we tell Loki and Thor about the stone?" Hermione asked Alex.

Alex chewed her lip, and Hermione and Alex were in the library studying.

"I dont know." Alex looked down at her book twirling her quill in her fingers.

"What stone?" Hermione and Alex turned to see Thorfinn and Lokian behind them.

"Uh.." Alex looked nervous but before she could say anything Marcus Flint walked by.

"What are you doing talking to two little firsties? Marcus growled at Thor and Loki.

"What do you think Flint?" Loki had grabbed Hermiones bag. "Just lookin at what they got."

"Give me back my bag!" Hermione hissed playing along.

"Give me back my bag!" Loki mocked. "Make me little girl!"

Flint laughed loudly and Madame Pince swooped down on them Loki quickly shoved Hermiones bag at her as they were all chased from the library.

"Nice going Flint you ruined our fun." Thor growled as they stormed down to the Slytherin common room.

Flint rolled ihs eyes sullenly and walked up to his dorm.

Thor and Loki looked at each other knowing they needed to talk to Hermione and Alex.

Alex and Hermione walked into the Unicorn grove.

Thorfinn and Lokian were waiting.

"Now what is this stone you were talking about earlier?" Thorfinn asked as they got settled.

"Its what the three headed dog in the third floor corridor is guarding." Alex said.

"Wait youve been to thr third floor corridor?"

"When, why?"

Hermione looked at Alex who shrugged.

"Draco Malfoy challeneged my brother to a duel a couple of weeks into term and we had to tag along due to extenuating circumstances and we got lost and accidentally ended up in that corridor."

The two boys shook their heads in exasperation.

"I think you need to leave this alone, you could get hurt."

Thor looked at Loki who nodded in agreement.

"Promise us you will leave this alone. " Loki stared at the girls sternly.

"We promise." They chorused and redirected the conversation to homework.

Later Hermione and Alex looked at each other as Harry and Ron began to badger on about Snape taking the stone.

"Innocent until proven guilty, just leave it alone." Alex muttered as she finished her essay.

"Oh come on Snape is a git i bet he wants it for himself." Ron said pushing his unfinished homework away.

"Ron you're giving me a headache, and finish your home work." Hermione snapped rubbing her temples.

"Its not due till Tuesday I'll finish it later, come on Harry lets go play chess." Harry got up and looked vaguely guilty under the annoyed looks from the girls.

"Do you think that Ron is distracting Harry and egging him on about the stone on purpose?" Alex asked Hermione watching the red head suspiciously.

"Why would he do that?" Hermione frowned.

"I don't know, but something doesn't feel right." Alex muttered and looked back at her books worry tightening her chest.

An 6/1/18 Hi every one! I'm cleaning up this chapter a little to fix some mistakes, it's not usually so horrid but I'm mostly writing this on mobile so it's harder to catch. I promise I will be a bit more diligent in the future!
