Adronia Brown: Magic Becomith
Chapter 44:Death of a Professor

I woke up early the next morning and found myself heading down the stairs. The stairs changed at an odd point and I suddenly saw a shadow above me. I found myself blinking a couple of times when I saw the sight of the professor hanging above me. It was the one that had warned us the night before. I had a feeling about him being the guilty party, but I now knew I was wrong. Quirell hung from the ceiling and there was no way a student could have put him up there.

Licking my lips, I headed to the closest professors office, which happened to be Severus Snape's. The man opened up the door and peered out of the room. "What is it?"

"I think Professor Quirell hung himself."

The man stormed out and hurried after me and we ended up under him. By this time other students were coming around and I could hear the man cursing under his breath about how this would get out. Ron was coming down the stairs with Harry, Neville and Draco and his eyes saw the man hanging there. "I bet Malfoy did it."

"Excuse me?" The blond haired boy turned to look at the boy in surprise. "Isn't it a suicide? I mean... he was always stammering and he was nervous."

"That's what you want us to think." Ron stated firmly.

I let out a deep sigh. "Yeah... and what would his motive be?"

"He's evil. That is motive enough."

"Ten points from Griffindor for your comment Weasly."

"Why?"

"Because it was inappropriate."

We found ourselves ushered down to the great hall and classes were canceled for the day. We learned later we would be having a rotation of professors for the rest of the year for class and no official professor named. Ron kept glaring and Draco and the blond haired boy glanced at the ground. I glanced around and found Dudley Dursley glaring at me, his face pig like.

The twins then destracted us. "Ron's got to be careful."

"Snape is known for taking points away even from his students."

"No way." Ron snorted from his nose.

"Rumor has it Harry's cousin got caught last night and managed to piss Snape off big time. Your comment normally would have been brushed off as he didn't like the man."

"Shut up."

"Then you shut up about Draco." Neville piped up.

"Excuse me?"

"You're calling him a killer, but we were all in the dorm together until we left. Seriously, he couldn't have done it."

"He could have sneaked off while we were asleep."

"Can it..." The eldest Weasly there glared at his brother. "If you don't stop, I will write to mom. Actually, I've been considering writing to her about Malfoy's situation."

"Why?"

"Because he is going to need a place to stay. I was thinking we could possibly help him out, seeing as there is very few other places for him to go."

"No!"

"Why not!"

"Because! Because!" Ron snorted out of his nose, before getting up to leave the room.
