Draco twisted his expression into a snarl. The girl didn't flinch as she stood in the doorway of the compartment.
"What do you want?" he demanded.
"Neville's lost his toad, so I'm helping him look for it. Have you seen one?"
"A toad?" he snorted. At his sides, Crabbe and Goyle guffawed.
"Have you seen one or not?"
"Of course not," he replied. "We don't let filth in here. It's not wanted."
An insulted look crossed her face, and she stalked off with her chin held high. As soon as she had left, Draco began rubbing his nose, serenaded by a soft croaking from beneath the seat.
