We all stared at Nico in shock. Fred and George looked at me then back at Nico.
'Bloody werewolves... GET HIM!' yelled Seamus.
With that, the whole crowd pounced on Nico, beating him up as much as they could. I was furious with them all. I had the werewolf glint in my eyes and Fred and George saw it too late.
'GET OFF HIM!' I yelled, pouncing on them.
The small human part of me left stopped me from transforming there and then.
'Make us!' yelled Seamus and I attacked him. Literally, attacked him.
'YOU'RE MENTAL!' he yelled.
'YOU'RE THE BLOODY MENTAL ONE!' I yelled, 'WHAT HAS NICO EVER DONE TO YOU? BLOODY PREJUDICED! ANY WEREWOLF WOULD BE MORE HUMAN THAN YOU LOT!'
Then either Fred or George placed a hand on my shoulder. They had stopped attacking Nico but I was still seething. They had all seemed to turn to me now.
'Step back,' I said to Fred and George.
'No!' said George.
'If you don't, I'll kill you...' I said.
I was shaking uncontrollably. It wasn't the way humans shake when they're angry. This was a transformation. Then Fred and George picked me up and carried me out the room. They sprinted towards the Forbidden Forest and put me down in there.
'CALM DOWN!' yelled Fred.
'THEY'RE GOING TO GET NICO EXPELLED! WELL, IF THEY DON'T KILL HIM FIRST!' I yelled back.
'YOU STAY HERE AND CALM DOWN! WE'LL DEAL WITH THAT!' yelled George and they sped off towards the castle.
Slowly, very slowly, I began to calm down. I had stopped shaking and I had my head buried in my hands.
'Molly?' I heard Harry's voice call.
'Hello?' then came Hermione's.
'GAH! SPIDER!' yelled Ron in the distance.
'Are you OK?' asked Harry.
'Maybe she can't reply!' said Ron.
'No, I'm OK... I'm over here!' I said.
'Hey! By the way, don't worry! Nico's alright!' said Hermione.
'Damn it... This is all my fault... If I hadn't come back, none of this would ever have happened!' I said, 'Nico is going to be given hell now... I've got to tell them.'
'No! Everyone has gone to great lengths to keep your secret a secret! Nico knew what the consequences would be! He cares about you, Molly! We all do! He'll be fine!' said Hermione.
'What if he's not! What if he gets expelled or maybe even killed! You should know by now! People don't take too kindly to werewolves!' I said.
'Molly... Think about Sirius! If the whole school finds out about you, they're going to try and kill you and you'll have to try and protect yourself... They'll send you to Azkaban! That would destroy Sirius and you know what he'd do! He'd get himself caught again just to see you!' said Harry.
'He's not that stupid...' I said.
'Want to bet? He's stupid and he's overprotective! The Order would probably try and break you out and they'd all be put in Azkaban! Just think for a moment!' said Ron.
'I suppose...' I sighed, 'Well, shall we go back to school? I promise I'll behave!'
We walked up to the school and into the common room. I sat by the fire and began reading a book, acting as though nothing had ever happened.
