A/N: I do not own Harry Potter.
Hannah quickly returned the Leaky Cauldron, sent an owl to Harry, and waited. She didn't have to wait long before Harry and Ron walked in.
"Are you insane?" A voice shouted from behind them. Hannah recognized it immediately.
"Good afternoon to you too, Neville," she commented. She glanced at Harry.
"We ran into him outside, now, you said you saw something?"
"Let's sit in the back. Jessie? Can you watch the front for a minute?" she asked one of her workers. He nodded in the affirmative. Hannah led the three boys, Neville refused to stay in the front, to one of the back rooms. She cast a silencing spell quickly.
"What did you see, Hannah?"
"Two men, one of them fit the build of the hooded figure we saw before. He was walking with a limp, he went into the abandoned building and someone joined him. I couldn't see their face, they were wearing a hood."
"What color robes?"
"Green, dark green almost black. The first man was wearing the same color. They talked for a minute, but I couldn't hear what they were saying, then they disappeared."
"Did they apparate?"
"I didn't hear anything, so I don't think so."
"Serpent Society?" Ron asked. Harry nodded with sigh.
"What's the Serpent Society?" Neville asked looking at the two aurors.
"A group we've been tracking, they claim their descendants of Slytherin, which we all know is doubtful. So far, they haven't done anything illegal, but from our intel, they're involved in some very sketchy things," Harry explained.
"So, what are they doing here?" Hannah asked.
"We don't know for certain. There are rumors of some powerful artifact they're searching for, but it's all rumor."
"And they all wear those green robes?"
"They are a symbol of the society, they also wear pendants with a snake wrapped around a globe," Harry replied pulling up an image.
"I've seen that before," Neville stated blinking in shock.
"Where?" Ron asked looking slightly eager, as if he was waiting for some action.
"At Hogwarts, actually. One of the students, Hia Ford, she doodled it on her herbology essay. Do you think she's a member?"
"I don't know, I would like to speak with her. I'll owl McGonagall. Hannah, if you see anything else, anything," Harry pulled a pocket sized mirror from his bag. "This is a two way mirror, speak my name into and I'll answer." Hannah nodded taking it. "Also, do you still have the galleon from the DA?"
"Yes," Hannah and Neville both answered.
"Good. I don't know if we'll need them, but keep it on hand just in case." They nodded. Harry and Ron left to file a report about what Hannah had seen. Neville stayed behind.
"Hannah, um, please don't do that again."
"Do what again?"
"Put yourself in danger like that. What if they had seen you?"
" I can't just not do anything. I know I'm not brave like you, Neville, but this is my bar, and these people could be a threat to my customers and friends."
"I just...Hannah, I care about you!" Hannah blinked.
"You do?"
"Yes, I do, and when I heard you were playing detective, from Harry, I thought, I realized... Hannah, will you go out with me?"
