ACT ONE, CHAPTER FOUR
blood traitors & lies.TRIGGER WARNING: blood
VENUS COULD TELL that Harry wanted to be anywhere but the Great Hall. During dinner, the Hall was captured in whispers about him. Apparently the news about his argument with Umbridge had traveled exceptionally fast. The thing was that the whispers didn't seem to mind him overhearing at all — in fact, it was like they wanted Harry to hear so he could start shouting again. Seriously, what a bunch of idiots.
"He says he saw Cedric Diggory murdered . . ."
"He reckons he dueled with You-Know-Who . . ."
"Come off it . . ."
"Who does he think he's kidding?"
"Pur-lease . . ."
"What I don't get," Harry began in a shaky voice from his place next to Venus, laying down his knife and fork since they were trembling in his hand. "Is why they all believed the story two months ago when Dumbledore told them . . ."
"The thing is, Harry, I'm not sure they did," Hermione admitted grimly. "Oh, let's get out of here."
She slammed down her own knife and fork and stood up from the table. Venus sighed — she might as well follow them, she wasn't allowed to sit with Charlotte and Elijah during dinner, anyways — and joined Harry, Ron (who was very sad to leave his apple pie), and Hermione in walking out of the Great Hall. Everyone stared at them the entire way out.
