[The following day, Anthea, Neville and Draco are meeting in the Great Hall, Draco having joined the two Gryffindors at their table. However, as the Gryffindor's filed in they give confused or disgusted looks to the group of three for having Draco at the table]

Neville: You mean You-Know-Who's out there right now in the Forest?

Anthea: But he's weak. He's living off the unicorns. Don't you see? We had it wrong. Quirrell doesn't want the Stone for himself. He wants the Stone for Voldemort. With the Elixir of Life, Voldemort will be strong again. He'll... he'll come back.

Neville: But if he comes back, you don't think he'll try to kill you, do you?

Anthea: I think if he'd had the chance, he might have tried to kill me last night. [Draco and Neville gulp.]

Neville: And to think, I've been worrying about my Herbology final.

Draco: Hang on a minute. [Anthea and Neville turn their heads to look at Draco] Although I don't want to admit it, who is the one wizard that You-Know-Who has feared? Dumbledore. Anthea, and again, I hate to admit this, but as long as Dumbledore's around, you're safe. As long as Dumbledore's around, you can't be touched.

[Draco gives Anthea a reassuring smile, causing her to nod her head.]

[Later all the students are rushing out as they finish their exams.]

Anthea: You know, my brother has always told me that exams are an ass and are hard. But you know what, that wasn't that hard.

Neville: Speak for yourself.

Anthea: I mean, once I get past the part of not being able to read the questions because of my dyslexia, then it's quite easy.

Draco: [looking over at Anthea as she begins rubbing her scar] You alright?

Anthea: My scar's burning more than normal.

Draco: And?

Anthea: And I think it's warning me that danger's coming. Although, don't you think that it's funny that Hagrid got a dragon egg?

[Anthea leads Draco and Neville down the hill towards Hagrid's hut.]

Anthea: I mean, how many people do you know that would be walking around with a dragon egg in their pocket. Hagrid!

[Hagrid is seen playing his flute but stops when he sees Anthea, Draco and Neville approaching him]. 'Ello you three.

Anthea: Hagrid. Who gave you that dragon egg?

Hagrid: I dunno. I never saw his face. The bloke kept his hood up.

Anthea: This stranger, though, you and he must've talked.

"Hagrid: Well, he wanted to know what sort of creatures I looked after. I told 'im. I said, after Fluffy, a dragon's gonna be no problem

Anthea: And he didn't seem interested in Fluffy?
