"Nico, stop!" Zak hisses. The doors to the Great Hall open with a bang. Sirius and Remus walk in. They spot Nico at the slytherin table and walk over to him. Nico points at the table. Professor Armstrong walks over. "Hey, you ok? Sorry if I upset you earlier" he tells Zak. Zak shrugs, "it's fine." The food disappears from the table. "Not like I'm gonna hate someone from my favorite band!" Zak mutters. Professor Armstrong sits on the bench in front of Zak. "Come on, I want to introduce you to someone" Professor Armstrong says. Zak blinks. "C'mon pup," Remus says, holding out a hand. Zak takes it. "Room of Requirements?" Sirius asks. Remus nods. Professor Armstrong stands up. "C'mon Nico," Sirius says. They walk out of the Great Hall and up to the Room of Requirement. Zak looks around in confusion, then spots a lefty fender precision bass guitar. Zak runs over and pokes it. Professor Armstrong looks from Zak to the guitar. Zak points at it, "my favorite bassist plays one of those!" Professor Armstrong blinks.
