Hannah, Susan, and Ernie fell in line behind a few Ravenclaws, wands at the ready to practice the spell Neville had just demonstrated for them on a wooden target. Hannah smiled at the two. "It's fun, isn't it? Being together like this again and teaching ourselves..." She looked around the Room of Requirement, fashioned to look as it did two years ago.

Ernie's gaze dropped to the ground and he frowned. Susan sighed. "No, Hannah, it isn't."

Hannah glanced at Susan before observing all the others around them. Seamus Finnigan had a swollen lip and a black eye. Michael Corner had a great gash on his cheek. Neville looked the worst of them all though, arm bandaged, lip cut, and both eyes blackened.

"No, then…I suppose it isn't."
