7. Dumbledore's Wrath
Dylan found her self venting all the way to the headmaster's office.
"How DARE he blame it on Neville, the useless, ungrateful, selfish, DEATH-EA-"but she was stopped from her rant, by a cool and collected voice speaking from her right side.
"Now, now, we don't want to bring peoples past into this" Dylan looked over and saw the unnervingly calm Dumbledore, "That was quite an argument you put up there, I have never seen Prof. Snape speechless before." Dylan was slightly taken aback was he complementing her?
"Err. Thanks" she said apprehensively, as the reached the Gargoyle; which she knew was the entrance to his office.
"Peanut-butter Mango" she said lightly, as the giant statue jumped out of the way revealing a spiral staircase. They both climbed the stairs, and then they ventured into the huge office. "Please take a seat Miss. Riddle." He gestured to the chair in front of a large desk. Dylan then, slowly rested herself into a comfortable chair, she immediately melted into it, it was such a relief from all of the hard benches and stools.
"I knew it was only a matter of time before I would see you in my office, I'm surprised you bet the Weasley twins" he said with a smirk. Again all Dylan could get out was a 'thanks', and a weak smile. For some time Dumbledore and Dylan Riddle talked, already being close Dylan felt she could tell him anything along with Hagrid. She voiced her opinions about Snape, about Slytherin, and about her father. They even had a house elf inform her teachers she wouldn't be attending classes that day, and the house elf also brought lunch. And indeed in after lunch the to Weasley twins turned up, sent to Dumbledore when they set off dung bombs. They also stayed for the majority of the afternoon, and dubbed Dylan as their new personal savior for telling Snape off. It was a beautiful day in the eyes of Dylan Riddle.
Soon she and the others, Dumbledore, Fred, and George, entered the great Hall for dinner, all of the Slytherins glared at her expect for 2. Dan and Mandy. She quickly sat down and told them the day's events.
"You got off with nothing?!" asked Dan in utter disbelief.
Dylan smirked, "Damn straight", said while waving her fork around.
