"Miss Malfoy — " Dumbledore started, but he didn't get to finish because Y/N had taken a crumpled-up piece of paper from her jacket pocket, frantically trying to pry open the ball of paper.
"Just listen: 'Of the many fearsome beasts and monsters that roam our land, there is none more curious or more deadly than the Basilisk, known also as the King of Serpents — "
"Y/N, leave this place at once. This is not your business — "
"Just listen!" She yelled, not meeting her father's cold eyes. " 'This snake, which may reach a gigantic size and live many hundreds of years, is born from a chicken's egg, - ' That doesn't matter...uh. 'Its methods of killing are most wondrous, for aside from its deadly and venomous fangs, the Basilisk has a murderous stare, and all who are fixed with the beam of its eye shall suffer instant death. The Basilisk flees only from. crowing o a rooster, which is fatal to it."
Y/N scoffed in hopefulness, "Hermione tore this out for me to find it! That's why she was at the library!"
"Miss Malfoy, the students were petrified, not killed by a murderous stare, I believe."
"Exactly! Colin saw it through his camera. Justin must've seen the Basilisk through Nearly Headless Nick, but Nearly Headless Nick saw the Basilisk's eyes, but he can't die again. Hermione had already figured out about the Basilisk, which is why she pulled out her mirror, and the Ravenclaw girl was near, looking at the mirror too. And Mrs. Norris must've seen the basilisk through the water that was on the floor that night because Moaning Myrtle flooded the toilet."
Once Y/N realized that everyone was looking at her as though her sanity had run away right in front of them, she turned to Dumbledore. "Professor, please."
"I'm afraid your professor can't do anything as of now, little lady." Cornelius smiled at her like she was incapable of understanding what he was saying. He turned to Lucius. "Lucius, if you can show your daughter out, for this should be a more private matter."
Immediately, Y/N's face went pale; Harry noticed quickly. Lucius then reached for Y/nNs shoulder, "Come daughter, let's let the adults do the talking for now."
Y/N scoffed, yanking her arm away from his grasp. "You are no father of mine!" She left the hut on her own, but Lucius followed, evidently furious.
Quickly, Harry guided Ron in a rush out of the hut and through the door that was flung behind Lucius as he walked out with Y/N.
"Let go of me!" Y/N groaned, struggling to get her arm from Lucius' firm grip.
"You think you can try to embarrass me in front of the Minister of Magic?" Pulling Y/N closer to him when he tried to walk away. he seized her other wrist.
