Episode Seventeen

            Between thinking of a really great way to get Malfoy back and trying to figure out her relationship with Harry, Gwen had never been busier. She didn't have much time left after her studies to pursue these extraneous "hobbies" as it were.

            She was bogged down enough when she received an owl from her mother at breakfast one morning.

            "Dearest Gwen,

            Minerva told me of the attack. Why didn't you send me an owl? If the person responsible is still wandering around Hogwarts you could be in grave danger. I should have warned you that being friends with Harry Potter would draw far too much attention to you. And finding yourself in the arms of a Slytherin certainly won't help, will it? I must go into hiding for a while. I fear I may have been spotted during my visit to Hogwarts. I will contact you again if my situation changes.

            In love and honor,

Your Mother."

            How she knew about Graves was beyond Gwen, but she wasn't about to send another owl to ask.
