Quinn roamed around the castle for the rest of the day, trying her best to avoid the people in her dark arts class, and she did it quite well. As she wondered down unknown corridors and read books in the part of the library she hadn't been before, her mind was getting over the embarrassment of the Boggart.

The night creeped in as she saw the students leave the library one by one until she was the last, placing her book on she same shelf she found it and left. She heard commotion from the Grand staircase, and when she looked to see what was happening it was absolute chaos. Everyone was shouting and shoving each other, Dumbledore was at the entrance to the Gryffindor dormitories, looking at the painting where the fat lady should be, but she wasn't there. Everyone scrambled up the staircase to find her, and there she was - hiding behind a hippopotamus.

"Sirius Black is in the castle!" she shrieked, everyone freaking out. Quinn didn't know how dangerous Sirius was, all she knew about him is what Harry told her on the train, and even that wasn't a lot. Dumbledore and Filtch started hurrying everyone to the Great hall, which was where everyone was going to sleep that night until they found out what was happening.

The ground was cold and uncomfortable, but she made the best out of a bad situation and formed a cocoon with her covers as she slept silently herself on the floor.

The next day as she sat in class, whispering and giggling with Hermione, the door swung open with great force. Snape charged down to the bottom of the classroom. This would be the first time meeting him, and she was scared. He used his wand to aggressively pull down all the curtains and the screen for the projector. "Turn to page three hundred and nenety four."

Quinn ruffled through the book in front of her, she had a feeling Snape wasn't a very patient person, especially since he had to get Ron to the right page. In front of her read the word 'werewolves' and she was a little confused why they had skipped so far. "What is the difference between a werewolf and an Animagi?" Snape asked the class and Hermione's hand shot up but he didn't let her answer but she spoke anyway.

"An Animagi choses to take the form of an animal but a werewolf has no choice, he forgets everything about himself and would kill his best friend if given the chance. Further more, the Werewolf only response to the call of his own kind." Hermione spoke out - Snape looking impressed but annoyed at the same time. Draco howled in his seat and his friends all laughed, Quinn snickered a bit but managed to pull herself together, but Draco didn't notice. Draco had started to leave her alone after the night were they were almost caught by Snape, and Quinn had noticed that. No longer was he shouting things out to her or shoving her out the way.

"That is the second time you have talked without being asked. Five points from Gryffindor." Snape said to Hermione, she huffed in frustration as the Slytherins of the class stifled a laugh. As Snape continued to talk, he went on to tell what we had as homework, but she wasn't interested. Instead of listening, she opened a paper note that had landed on her desk in the shape of a bird. She opened it up, and in lovely handwriting it wrote;

 Still scared of me?

- Draco, your worst nightmare

This made her mad, she had just finally started to get over how horrible and embarrassing it was and the last person she wanted to hear about it from was the same person who just brought it up. she turned the paper around and messily scribbled on the back;

You cant be that scary if I could beat you in a fight

- Quinn, the one you're jealous of.

She signed it off with a heart then used the same spell Draco did , and off it went - flying towards Draco. As it landed, Snape caught sight of it and rushed over to his table and pulling the paper from his hands and reading both sides. "How childish! Both of you will receive detention after class." and with that - class was over.

Everyone left except Quinn, Snape and Draco. Quinn got up from her seat and sat at the seat furthest away from Draco and he watched in disgust. Snape huffed at the childish students and announced he was going to leave. "Yous will stay here and work out your problems. I am too busy to deal with your pathetic bickering. And you will not leave until you do." he stormed down the classroom and closed the door behind him. It very muffled but they could hear Snape putting a charm on the door so it locked.
