Dani slipped out to the courtyard for some fresh air after class. The advice from her friends swirled around her mind. Was it really worth it?
"Hey... Stop! STOP!"
Dani spotted two Gryffindor first-years, a boy and a girl, on the side. She went over for a closer look.
The boy's feet were dancing uncontrollably, clearly under the influence of the tarantellegra. The girl was laughing her head off. "Take that, MUDBLOOD!"

"But I took points from my own house!"
"Remember Merula, Dani. What she did to all of us."
"That boy should't have to go through this. It's just awful."
"So you're ready to head back in and prove yourself?"
"I'm ready," said Dani.
