No Ones POV:

By the time the next interesting event rolled around it had been just simply the next morning for the quidditch game, Gryffindor's against Slytherin. It was the talk of the school all morning and it was clear everyone was excited to see the turn out. Upon Arabella's arrival to the dining hall she hadn't managed to hear about anything else all morning long not even about the troll who had disrupted dinner the night before. Everyone had seemingly moved on.

"Harry you have to eat." Arabella stated firmly dropping food off of her plate on to her brothers as she watched him scrunch his face up and push it away. This caused her to push it back with her fork once again.

"I'm not hungry." He stated annoyed and looked up at his twin, while making eye contact pushed the food she had given him off his plate and back on to hers. This caused Arabella to let out incoherent and quiet mumbles about Harry. The boy looked away from his twin and glancing over at the other two who gave disapproving glanced at his lack of eating.

"Take a bit of toast mate. Go on." Ron could be heard urging his friend as well to continue eating.
   "Their right Harry, you're going to need your strength today." Hermione then spoke up.

"I said I'm just not hungry.." Harry spoke looking between the three of them. Whilst the three of them then glanced down to their own plates and chose to stop bugging Harry about his lack of food a deep voice could be heard speaking causing all four of their heads to snap up to the source and see Professor Snape standing tall.

"Good luck today Potter." He spoke with a pause glancing at Arabella before looking back in to Harry's eyes "Then again, now that you have managed to prove yourself against a troll. A little game of Quidditch should be nothing but easy work for you.. Even if it is against .. Slytherin." His eyes wondered between the other three at the table, landing on Arabella's one last time before he tore his now considerably softer gaze away and began to head to the Professors table.
The professor couldn't help but send a glare to every person he walked past on his way to the head table because of the annoying pull against his heart in knowing Lily's children were here, in Hogwarts. Although he had noticed the eyes of Lily on potter, he couldn't get Arabella's whole being through his head. She was identical to her mother, personality and all. If his memories served him right her hair was even parted in the same way. It gave him a sense of urgency to protect the girl more than he maybe would ever want to admit..

"That explains the blood." Harry spoke up causing both girl at the table to look his way with confusion.
  "Blood?" Hermione asked.
"What blood?" Arabella following soon after with her question.

Harry sat up straighter and leaned in to the table for the three to hear.
" Listen, last night, I'm guessing Snape let the troll in as a diversion so he could try and get past that three headed dog.. although he must have gotten himself bitten, and that's why he's limping."

"Why would he .. or anyone for that matter go near that dog willingly?!" Arabella then cut in with not only confusion but disbelief plastered to her face as well. She understood that her brother didn't like the professor but to assume that he tried getting past the three headed beast on the third floor by putting students in danger sounded almost absurd.

" The day we were at Gringotts, remember?" Harry questioned Arabella who nodded. "Hagrid had taken something of value out of one of the vaults. Said it was Hogwarts business. Very secret." Her brother said in a serious tone making sure to get his point across to the other three around him.
