"Excellent job! I'm so proud of you!" I smiled looking down at the group of first and second years I've been tutoring all year

"Excellent job! I'm so proud of you!" I smiled looking down at the group of first and second years I've been tutoring all year. It was Exam week and while most were stressing I took my exams last week, one of the perks of being ahead in all my classes.

"Can I have that sticker?" A blonde first year named Seth asked an I nodded pulling the sticker off the roll around my wrist and handing it to him along with a handful of candy.

"Keep up the good work you guys. Just because it easy-"

"Doesn't mean we don't have to try." They all said in unison before running off with their stickers and candy.

"Stickers and candy? Perhaps I should change my methods." Minnie laughed from behind me an I shrugged.

"Everyone needs motivation every now and then."

"Yes, I suppose they do. Shouldn't you be taking your Ancient Runes exam right about now?" She asked checking her watch an I shook my head.

"Took it last week, I got Os on everything except Divinations. I got an E on that but that's probably on the account of me rarely doing my homework for the subject." I sighed and she laughed.

"Homework prepares you for the test Miss Romanoff." She reminded.

"But she's always asking us to talk about our dreams. I wanted to drop the class and take Muggle Art instead but she kept forgetting to sign my transfer." I explained and she nodded in response.

"I'll be sure to make a note for next year. Oh, I came to find you because Severus was looking for you. Something about the store's supply." She said an I nodded grabbing the large bucket of blow pops and my stickers before making my way to the dungeons.

"Come in!" Snape called after I knocked on the door of his classroom. When I walked I noticed that the third year Gryffindors and Ravenclaws where taking their written exams. I made my way over to his desk as quietly as possible so I didn't distract anyone.

"McGonagal said you were looking for me?" I whispered and he nodded get up and leading me back out of the room.

"Have you taken inventory recently? More specifically have you noticed a lack of ingredients that have been unaccounted for?" He asked an I immediately nodded.

"I intended to bring that to your attention this evening. When I was getting ingredients for my calming draught, I noticed that the specific ingredients for a polyjuice potion is low again. It's been like clockwork every two months." I said and he sighed.

"I was hoping I'd miscounted. But someone in this castle has been stealing from me so if you hear anything, anything at all or if you suspect anyone please let me know." He instructed and for some reason my mind immediately went to the uneasy feeling I felt whenever Moody was around. But he was a teacher, I probably just recognized his trauma or something.
