Severus hears a cry of pain, but not just any one. He recognizes it as Harry's cries. Severus rushes over to find that Harry is lying on the floor in the fetal position with tears flowing from his eyes. Severus notices that someone from his own house is standing right in front of Harry with his fist still clutched together. Severus apparates to Madam Poppy and then apparates back to the scene of the incident. Madam Poppy cleans Harry up and helps him to the hospital wing, in which he will need to rest for a day or two.
"You! What is the meaning of this?" asked Severus in a strict serious tone.
Draco sweaty and nervous, didn't want to get into trouble so he told a fib to his house professor.
"Well...sir, I didn't do anything. All I saw was him lying on the floor when I was walking by." said Draco.
"Oh really? Is that the case? What were you doing out of your seat. You have a nice hot meal in front of you and you rather be walking around the Great Hall instead? I don't believe a word in what you are saying!" said Severus as he glared at Draco with his arms folded.
A student from Gryffindor house walks up to Severus and taps on him.
"Excuse me, professor?" asked a girl with brown wavy hair with puffy bangs.
"Yes? Ah Miss Granger, what is it?" asked Severus as he took his eyes off of Draco.
"Sorry to bother you professor, I can tell your in a tight pickle, but I did see what happened." said Hermione.
"Oh just shut up you stupid muggle, how do you know what you have seen?" said an angry Draco as he pointed his wand at her.
"Oh please! I saw the whole thing! Might I remind you that you were the one who punched that boy in the abdomen?" said a sassy attitude Hermione.
"Why don't you keep you filthy tainted mud-blood self out of this situation you pea brain bitch!" said an aggressive Draco as he began to shout louder.
Draco pointed his wand to only realize that Severus yanked it out before he could curse a spell at Hermione. Severus grabbed Draco by the ear and pulled him away, while Draco was screaming in pain due to his ear being pulled very hardly.
"Bye-bye you little shit!" said Hermione.
Severus dragged Draco to Professor Quarrell's office.
"Quarrell, I am dropping this student off to serve detention for 5 evenings after his lectures. If you have chores for him please be willing to make him do them as he was caught red handed beating up another student in his own house. A student was a witness of this event." said Severus.
"Ah, ok. Draco? Well sir, I can guarantee that he will have some nice hard physical labor." said Professor Quarrell.
"Thank you, I must leave now as I need to check on Harry. I am hoping he isn't hurt too badly. Otherwise Mr. Malfoy will have his father called!" said Severus in a angry demeanor.
Draco turned pale as a ghost when he heard what would happen. He feared his father. His father never seemed pleased to Draco for anything he has accomplished throughout his life. Draco knew better to get into trouble but the troubles he has been having has been making him want to physically bully someone else to express how he feels.
