Draco made a point to ignore Potter as he continued through the forest along the path. He wasn't fond of the idea of bringing a complete stranger who had appeared from the Forbidden Forest back to the castle. But, seeming as Potter had already offered his help, what chose did he have? At least he could Potter into some kind of trouble for it. With the thought shimmering on his mind, he continued onward.
The girl encircled her arms around her tiny frame as she followed Harry. She kept her head bowed, too unnerved now to look at him directly. "No," she whispered softly, "it would be very bad of me to talk about home. It's just...well, most people don't like us." She suddenly looking around. Her little face twisted into a frown. "Where are we going?" she demanded. Something seemed to have just occurred to her.
Hearing footsteps up ahead, Draco paused long enough for Potter and the girl to catch up. "I suppose they are coming to fetch us. I told you we had been out here for too long Potter,"he sneered, grinning. He knew Potter had to get into some kind of trouble now, and receive some sort of punishment. The very thought of what it could be pleased him.
"Whose coming?"the child cried, going into a state of panic. Before either of them could answer, two shadows appeared at the edge of the lantern light. Squeaking in fear, she ducked behind Harry only to peer out from behind him. Her sight landed on Snape first. The face belonged to someone Snape had known years before. Someone who had been missing for eleven years, and was believed to be dead. The face of his sister peaked out at him from behind Potter's back, full of fright.
