Calm, calm. Yeah right!

After the last one of the Gryffindor's had finally gone to bed Lucy finally snuck out of the common room. She lastly checked from the map that nobody was around so she could quietly go to the Dumbledore's office without being noticed.

She reached the stone gargoyle and after saying the password, which was luckily still the same, she walked into Dumbledore's office.

She saw Dumbledore at his desk doing some sort of paper work even if it was twelve thirty at night already.

''I assume that young Harry and Mr. Weasley told you about their little adventure,'' Dumbledore said without looking at her.

''Yeah, they did,'' Lucy said as calmly as possible and tried to count to ten so she would not start yelling at Dumbledore but when she got to number four she lost it,

''TROLL! A FREAKING TROLL! IN HOGWARTS! WHAT WERE YOU THINKING OR WERE YOU THINKING AT ALL? FORGET ABOUT VOLDEMORT'S FOLLOWERS THEY DON'T HAVE TO KILL MY BROTHER WHEN YOU SEEM TO DO IT JUST FINE BY YOURSELF!'' Lucy finally yelled all the things that had been going through her mind during the evening.

Dumbledore didn't seem to be affected by Lucy's yelling but he did raise his head from the paper work and looked at Lucy. She saw that he had a sad look in his eyes.

''Trust me my dear when I say this. That troll was and is still in Hogwarts but it was supposed to be somewhere where no student would ever go. I have some theories how it got out but none that would make sense to me. I assure you that I honestly thought that Harry would go to the common room with other students but once again you have to forgive an old man's mistake. I did not count that he has the same unselfish nature as your father had. So when Harry and young Mr. Weasley realized that young Ms. Granger was not with them his first response was to go safe her himself and not to tell a teacher or a prefect. I have to say that for a first year student's they were very lucky,'' Dumbledore explained.

''Yeah, I know they were lucky, but why is there a troll in the castle anyway?'' Lucy asked now that her biggest rage had gotten out.

''That I cannot tell you. It is something that nobody can know,'' Dumbledore answered.

''Well know that we know Harry can somewhat take care of himself can't we tell him that he still has one family member left?'' Lucy asked hopefully.

Dumbledore locked his clear blue eyes to Lucy's emerald green ones and answered,

''No, my dear, we cannot. Now that Harry has defeated the troll he is very shaken even if he does not show it or even acknowledge it himself. To tell him now who you are might shock him to do reckless things. And this evenings incident proves that young Harry is indeed little reckless when it comes to his own life. I am sorry, my dear, I know this is hard for you but Harry is still in great danger and even if you would defend him you would still be his weak spot. Enemies would try to harm you so that they could weaken Harry and then hurt him. Try to understand,'' Dumbledore said with a weak smile on his face.

''I do understand but it's so hard not to tell him,'' Lucy said with a broken voice.

''I know, my dear, I know. But do not worry some day we will tell Harry who you are. I promise you that. Now go to your dormitory and try to get some rest. You look like you would need it,'' Dumbledore said as he escorted Lucy out of his office.

Lucy checked the map and noticed how Filch was trolling in the dungeons (probably trying to catch the culprit who freed the troll himself if they dared to try again) so she slipped to the common room and went straight to bed without even changing to her pajamas and fell quickly into a very restless sleep.
