I tied my shoes before sneaking down to the common room to wait for Harry and Ron.

"Violet?" I heard a voice whisper and I looked around to find no one there.

"Oh god, now I'm hearing voices." I mumbled to myself when I felt a hand grab mine and I almost screamed before my eyes landed on Ron and Harry under the cloak

"Gods! Don't scare me like that." I whisper yelled as Harry put the cloak over my head

⚡️💜⚡️

I reached from under the cloak and knocked on Hagrid's front door and we waited

"Who's there?" He asked opening the door armed with a crossbow and we took the cloak off. He quickly lowered his weapon ushering us inside. Fang Hagrid's giant boarhound made his way over to us as if he was demanding pets and I placed my hand on top of his head

"What's that for?" Harry asked pointing to Hagrid's crossbow

"Nothin', nothin'. I've been expectin'... Doesn't matter. Sit down... I'll make tea..." Hagrid tried to explain nervously as he accidentally spilled water all over himself

"Here, let me." I offered taking the kettle from him and he nodded

"Are you okay? Hagrid? Did you hear about Hermione?" Harry questioned

"Oh, yea.I heard, all righ'." Hagrid sighed. Out of the corner of my eye I could see Ron nodding to Harry as if they were having a silent conversation

"Look... we have to ask you something. Do you know who's opened the Chamber of Secrets?" Harry cautiously spoke

Hagrid turned to face us, fruit cake in hand as he was about to answer but he stopped immediately when a loud knock came from the other side of his door and the fruit cake smashed to the floor as I stacked the empty tea cups I had yet to fill so if didn't look like Hagrid had company before Ron pulled me towards himself and Harry, the latter throwing the invisibility cloak over us. Hagrid grabbed his crossbow and pointed it at the door before he nervously spoke.

"C-come in."

The door opened to reveal a very grim looking Dumbledore and a man in a strange hat that I'd never seen before

"Good evening, Hagrid." Dumbledore greeted

"That's Dad's boss! Cornelius Fudge. The Minister of Magic!" Ron whispered to Harry and I answering my unspoken question as Harry nudged him to stay quiet.

"Bad business, Hagrid. Very bad business. Had to come. Four attacks on Muggle-borns. Things've gone far enough. Ministry's got to act." Fudge sighed

"I never... You know I never, Professor Dumbledore, sir..." Hagrid tried to defend

"I want it understood, Cornelius, that Hagrid has my full confidence." Dumbledore informed
