Title: Living Death

Hermione shut her eyes attempting to deny her realization. "We created living death with Crookshanks?" she muttered more to herself.

"Yes, hardly the discovery that would have the world creating statues of honor in a museum," he replied sardonically.

"I could care less about any discoveries, Sir, how is it you are aware of the demon and I am not?" she asked in a business like tone as her aura flashed black and silver.

"I have reassessed my original evaluation. The third Master, the source of dark magic that opened the Room of Requirement, is the demon," Snape articulated carefully.
