009

"Fred, Fred. Hey, listen to me." I say tugging on his sleeve, looking down at me he puts a finger up telling me to shush. "Fred, this is such a bad idea." I whisper trying to get out of doing this prank. Fred and George had talked me into doing a prank on a professor, however I didn't realize the said professor would be Snape.

"It's okay demon child, just keep your eye on the map and tell me when you see him." Fred says, looking back at the map I see George running down the hall with Snape following behind him. Fred and I hid in a secret passage that George is supposed to join us in. Sighing, I watch the map not looking up when George joins us behind the false wall that leads to this passage way. On the other side of the wall I can hear Snape cursing as some of the dung booms go off, this is supposed to distract Snape for one of the twins to slip away and set up the prank in his room.

However as Fred slipped out, Snape stopped cussing suddenly, his name started to slowly walk away from here. George, tapped my should to show me that he was leaving to join Fred. But right before he leaves Snape's hand reaches through the fake wall and pulls George out.

Taking a few steps back from the wall, Fred and George always told me that if a prank went south then I should get away and not get into trouble too. I quietly start to walk through the passage way to get away, without being heard by anyone. I'm surprised that Snape knew about that hidden wall.

The passage way went from the third floor to the first floor, right outside of the Great Hall. Looking down at the map I can George walking with Snape, heading towards his office luckily away from Feed. In the corner of my I see Rons name leaving the side of the map. Opening the map up further I see Ron, Potter, and Grangers name moving out of the castle towards Hagrid's hut. Where the hell do they think the are going this late at night? I sat down in the passageway biting my nails as I watched the names join Hagrids in his hut.

Right outside of the hut was Draco's name, Draco? What is he doing out there? Oh,Merlin please tell me he isn't following them.

Standing up I make my way towards the exit of the school to get Draco, I watch as Draco's name comes towards the entrance to the school. "Mischief managed." I whisper holding my wand to the map, folding it up and putting it in my back pocket. "Draco, what are you doing out after curfew?" I whisper as I grab onto his arm pulling him into a smaller passageway to make sure we aren't seen by a professor.

Draco jumped when I grabbed him, almost freaking out before he saw my face in the moonlight. "Merlin, Evadanne, trying to give me a heart attack?" Draco questions putting his hand on his chest. "I was following Potter and his friends because they were doing something stupid and I was right. Here come with me." Draco grabs my arm taking me with him, before I can stop him he's dragging me through the corridor not listening to my protests. He knocks on Professor McGonagall's door before I realized what he was doing or where we were. Is this boy an idiot? She's going to punish us too for being out after curfew! Oh my god, that prat.

"Malfoy? Weasley? What are you doing up after curfew?" She asked as she stood there in her night gown. Sighing, I look to Draco with an annoyed expression, suddenly happy that I had already put the map away.

"Potter, Weasley the boy one, and Granger were out past curfew. They were at Hagrid's hut with a dragon!" Draco exclaimed. McGongall's faced paled at the thought of a dragon being on school property.

"A dragon?" I exclaim at he same time as the professor.

"Yes, a dragon, he hatched it himself. There illegal professor and Potter was trying to help him hide it." Draco stated. Ron was helping Hagrid raise a dragon? He knows that's illegal and he knows how much trouble he can get in. All three of them could get expelled, what if that dragon had hurt Ron?
