He heard the blonde talking with Blaise as they all changed.
"I've got a huge bruise on my ass from your little wake up call. If any one sees that bite mark they'll start asking questions," Malfoy said.
"Teaches you to sleep without a shirt on," Blaise said.
"My ass wasn't exposed you turd," Malfoy responded, a light slapping sound later Blaise was pouting and rubbing his arm.
"So? It's so cute," Blaise said in a mocking tone.
"What will we do with you?" Malfoy said, he almost sounded like he was smiling. Harry changed quickly and left, not really wanting to have a run in with the blonde or his posse.
Harry walked out towards the Charms classroom, he knew he shared that class with the Slytherins as well as Ron and Hermione, but he wanted to get there alone for some reason. Behind him he heard Malfoy and his gang talking as they followed him.
"So, who all is coming to the Falcon Wing this weekend? Shirtz Off is playing the main stage and it's two sickle Martini night," Theodore Knott said, there was the sound of someone opening a folded piece of parchment.
"Blaise, Terry, Luke, Pansy, Millicent, Vincent, Greg, Jacob, Malcom and the entire rest of the Fifth Year. That's who I've confirmed so far, but I'll owl the boys back home and have them floo in for the night," Malfoy said.
"I talked to Thomas during CC today, he and his boy are coming as well," Blaise said.
"Got it, I'll owl this to Hilda so she can stock up on drinks and drugs," Theo sounded as if he was joking but Harry couldn't be sure.
"Good," Malfoy said and they stopped in front of the Charms classroom that Harry had just walked into.
Pansy, Millicent, Crabbe, Goyle and one of the other boys walking with them started walking away down the hall as they had dropped Charms. Malfoy, Blaise, Theo and the other boys all walked inside. One of them was a sandy haired boy about Malfoy's height (5'7'') who looked ready to snog Malfoy at any second.
Harry seated himself and waited for his friends to arrive, meanwhile, the Slytherin Prince took the seat just behind him, with Blaise next to him and the rest of Slytherin filling in around them. Either in front of or across from Harry and their Prince.
Hermione and Ron walked in just as Neville took the seat next to Harry, they looked at him with a strange expression and an apologetic shrug before sitting down on the other side of the room.
"Good day students, Welcome to Advanced Charms," Flitwick scrambled on top of a pile of books and beamed at them.
"let's do attendance; Abbott?"
"Here."
"Bones?"
"Here."
"Boot?"
"Yes?"
"Brown?"
"Here."
"Finch-Fletchety?"
"Here."
"Granger?
"I'm here."
"Longbottom?"
"H-Here."
"MacDougal?"
There was no answer, but instead the door opened to admit Professor Snape. He stalked forward and slapped an envelope onto the desk and then left immediately after. Flitwick picked up the envelope and opened it, he gasped as he read the words.
"I'm sorry to tell you class, but Morag has been found dead in the West Corridor of the Fourth Floor, we must go to the Great Hall immediately," Flitwick hopped off his stack of books and rushed out of the room with the class on his heels. They were gripped by a heavy silence or fearful whispers, they all remembered their second year, when students were turning up petrified. Now they were turning up dead.
Dumbledore was standing there with a grave look on his face, the hall filled quickly and everyone fell silent. He gave a heavy sigh and then spoke.
"A Sixth Year student, Morag MacDougal has been found dead just earlier today by our own Mr. Filch as he patrolled the corridors for students skipping class. Mr. MacDougal was found with a note attached to him. A riddle and if any one knows the meaning, they are strongly urged to tell us immediately, here it is. "There will be crimes, never ending. The devourers of doom come and go as easily as rain. A bolt of white in a sea of black. Bring forth the Prince of Darkness and the white bolt. Sacrifice." Please come forward if you have any idea what this means," Dumbledore was holding a piece of white parchment with torn and burnt edges, stained with a red liquid Harry didn't even want to know about. He had a sickening feeling it had a lot to do with him.
He heard a strangled yelp as the ceiling, normally charmed to look like the sky outside, began to swirl and change into a black vortex. Harry gaped at it, Quest ran forward to grab the ankle of a First Year being sucked upwards into the ceiling. She let out a scream of rage as more smaller students began to drift upwards. Dumbledore looked petrified, shocked even. Harry snatched the arm of small boy near him. Snape, Cole, Tains, McGonaggle and most of the others were running out to grab a hold of students. Suddenly the pull grew stronger. The tables went flying into air, the disappeared into the ceiling and people screamed in fear as older students started rising as well. Malfoy was suddenly flying upwards, he face a mask of utter fear as he struggled to reach back towards the ground.
Flitwick hurtled into the air and before anyone knew any better he had disappeared just like the tables had. Then went a few second years and some third years, moving incredibly fast. Harry watched as more people began shooting into the air with screams of fear and disappeared into the vortex. Then Malfoy pulled out his wand and pointed it at himself. He said something and immediately dropped to the ground. He started shooting off the spell at other students. Snape and the other professors all suddenly caught on and started shouting the spell at everyone even slightly risen into the air. Dumbledore seemed to awaken from his stupor and raised his wand to the ceiling.
He shouted a spell and it stopped dead, the students who'd all been sucked up fell back through as well as the tables. Professors stopped the wooden tables and benches before they crushed students and levitated them against the walls. Harry patted the small boy on the back to try and comfort him. Malfoy was breathing heavily and being supported by the brown haired Slytherin.
"Is everyone all right?" Snape called, rushing into the crowd of Slytherins around Draco. Harry could just barely see the black-haired Professor put his arms around the blonde and hug him, looking utterly relieved that he was okay.
Tains and Quest moved through the Hufflepuff and Gryffindor students, patting shoulders and checking bruises. Some of the more shaken students were being attended by Madame Pomfrey and Professor Cole.
Quest walked over to Harry and put a hand on his shoulder, she smiled at him.
"Hello Harry, how are you doing?" She asked.
"I'm all right," Harry gave her a sheepish grin.
"Good, I'll be seeing you tomorrow, just after Potions, correct?"
Harry nodded, stunned that she knew. She nodded and cupped his cheek with her hand. "You remind me a great deal of your mother, I can see where people could see your father in you, but I see more of Lily."
"H-How did you know my parents?" Harry was stunned.
"Your mother was my god daughter, your parents were children of very close friends of mine. Come with me, we should talk," She put an arm around his shoulders and steered him from the chaos of the Great Hall.
Harry was silent. Someone else who knew his parents, what a great thing. She was a very calm woman, her eyes reminded Harry of Sirius', cunning and smart and ever amused.
