"well her parents were attacked. they say some of YOU-KNOW-WHO'S followers did it! i think it's great atleast no one would back up that know it all *****! i hope she gets kicked out" muttered pansy "could you just shut up!" draco said and now he's kind upset about the whole thing. so he stormed out of the great hall and entered the slytherin tower and headed for his special private room.
