Chapter 16 - Home Again and Letters or Owl Post and a Birthday Party
The train ride back to King's Cross was fairly uneventful. No one had much desire for strange accidents or anything like that after such a year. For most students the journey was as boring or exciting as ever but not for the five friends and another group of two people.
Those two - Cat Williams and Terence Higgs were currently sitting in a locked compartment and exchanged hesitant first kisses. They hadn't thought their relationship would develop that quickly but they didn't really care about it either.
Cat and Terence were just happy to be able to hold each other after the whole Basilisk affair. Almost the same went for Harry and Hermione as well as Draco and Ginny. The former two were currently playing yet another game of chess which Harry lost - again.
Draco and Ginny were content just looking at each other and reassuring that they wouldn't leave ever again. It had been a trying year for those two and they had finally realised just how much they meant to each other even at such a young age.
It was a well known fact that people with magical blood - whether they were Muggleborn, Halfblood or Pureblood didn't matter - hit puberty earlier than Muggle's. Even Squibs matured faster than the general non-magical folk.
Because of that someone who was nearly fourteen could be seriously in love with another. Most of the times those relationship lasted longer than silly childhood crushes many muggle teenagers used to have so often.
Carya was currently none of that. She felt like the proverbial fifth wheel and was feeling left out. She didn't blame her siblings and friends though. Quite the opposite, she was really happy they had finally admitted that they liked the other. But still, she longed for someone for herself.
She would, of course, never admit that because she was too proud and too stubborn to show such an emotion. Carya thought jealousy and envy were below her. The problem was to make those words work like she wanted them to.
Right now she was only Harry's twin, Draco's sister and Hermione's as well as Ginny's best friend. She had a small battle with her subconscious which she won for once and stopped moping around.
Instead of doing that she immersed herself in her potion's books once again. Although she hadn't told anyone she was determined to find a cure for Remus. A task which no one had accomplished until now.
She didn't understand everything of the current Wolfsbane Potion since that was far beyond her level at this point of time but she wanted to at least be able to make it for Remus before she graduated.
What she didn't notice herself was that her own thoughts were quite frequently pulled back to Hogwarts and one person in particular. A dark haired, crimson eyed boy named Tom Marvolo Riddle.
Her thoughts were pretty much messed up and she barely noticed how fast the trip seemed to be over this time. They were already in London when Carya's attention was focused on reality again. Sirius and Remus were already waiting on the platform along with Mister and Mrs. Weasley.
Percy stalked over to his parents together with Ron while Fred and George stayed to say goodbye to their Slytherin friends. They dragged Ginny over to her own family after she had promised to stay the whole of August with them before the new term started.
The girl really hated to leave her Draco so soon after finding out his feelings for her but she had to. Her parents wouldn't let her go that easily after what had happened during the last school-year. Hermione's parents were waiting near the barrier on the muggle side of the station.
She hugged Harry and told them that she'd be around in August too. With a quick wave she left and walked out of the station with her parents. Harry, Carya and Draco just stood there with their guardians for a few minutes when Draco began snickering slightly.
"Look at that! I think Terence will be lovesick this summer if she doesn't invite him," Draco told his family grinning and pointed towards two of their fellow students.
"Yeah, you're right Draco. Who would've thought that the shy and withdrawn Terence would be like that, huh? I guess we've underestimated him this time," his sister replied.
"Oh shut up you two. You'd better be happy for them. And besides, I'm glad that 'Mione and I aren't the only inter-house couple anymore," interrupted Harry blushing quite furiously.
This sent his siblings into giggling fits once again and he just huffed while stalking towards a small wizarding shop where the next floo-network connection was. He was angry with himself that they could embarrass him that easily these days.
When they were back at the Manor the kids showered and met in the library with the two adults. The children asked them if Hermione and Ginny were allowed to stay during August and neither of the two grown-ups had any argument against that arrangement apart from the necessary approval of the girls parents.
All three children went to bed that night thinking of another. Draco dreamt about Ginny while Harry lay awake thinking about his Hermione and what she was doing just now. Carya didn't sleep either. She was wondering how Tom was holding up.
He was after all the only underage wizard left in school surrounded by suspicious teachers because of his name and his possible future. The girl couldn't find a reason for this train of thoughts but her mind kept returning to the same issue. The dark haired Slytherin Heir who was at Hogwarts this very moment.
'Perhaps I should write him a letter? ... Ugh, I don't know what's wrong with me. First I rescue him, then I'm not even angry or upset that he hurt me and tried to kill Harry and myself. And now I'm thinking about him all the time,' she ranted in her mind.
It didn't help though because there was no answer to those problems. After being wide awake until four a.m. she fell asleep and didn't wake before her brother shouted something into her ear.
"Wake up sleepyhead! Time for breakfast," Harry yelled.
"Ugh, Harry James Potter, I swear, if I get my hands on you, you'll be a dead man!" she groaned pulling the pillow over her head.
Then it was Draco's turn. He took one of the girl's quills and began tickling the soles of her feet with it. Since Carya was very ticklish there, she jumped immediately glaring daggers at both boys who ran out laughing their heads off.
"I swear one day, I'll just kill them!" she growled half-heartedly and left for the shower.
After a very interesting breakfast where the tea from the boys cups kept spilling onto their laps, the children went to their respective rooms. Surprisingly they all did the same thing without conferring about it - they wrote letters to someone.
~*~*~ Harry Potter POV ~*~*~
'I really should write Hermione a letter. Okay, okay, it is only the first day of holidays but I already miss her,' I thought and started writing.
'Dear Hermione,
I hope you arrived at home well. What are your plans for the next weeks? You didn't tell me on the train, did you? Okay, neither did I but whatever. I have to tell you that I already miss you.
Draco and I woke up Carya this morning by yelling into her ear and tickling her with a quill. I think she was pretty angry about that one. Because at breakfast any tea that went with our meal just kept spilling onto our laps.
I hope to hear from you soon. Have a nice month until we see each other again.
Love,
Harry'
I finished the letter quickly and sent it with Phobos.
'I wonder what Carya and Draco are doing right now. Oh, whatever, I'll go out for a walk and see them at lunch or dinner," I thought and left my rooms.
~*~*~ End Harry Potter POV ~*~*~
~*~*~ Draco Malfoy POV ~*~*~
'I doubt anyone would've guessed or imagined me sitting here, trying to find the right word to say for my little Ginny. Oh, okay, she isn't that little. She's almost fourteen, just like myself and a confidant teenage girl.
I hope she's okay. I swear if that infernal git Ronald lays so much as a finger on her ever I'll hunt him down!' I mused ending with a low growl.
I wrote Ginny a letter although it was only one day since we'd seen each other the last time.
'Dear Ginny,
I hope you aren't bothered by those git's that call themselves your brothers. Don't hesitate to ask for any type of assistance if things go awry, okay? I can hardly wait for August to come around.
I miss you already and if it weren't for the fact that you really should spend some time a year with your parents I would've immediately asked Padfoot and Moony to let you come over.
See you soon!
Love,
Draco'
I sent this letter with one of Sirius owls since I didn't have one anymore. I really ought to by a new one the next time we're in Diagon Alley.
~*~*~ End Draco Malfoy POV ~*~*~
~*~*~ Carya Potter POV ~*~*~
'Damn, I'm sitting here staring into space as if there was nothing more interesting in the world. Ugh, face it girl, you're losing it. You only think of Tom and how to help him.
That's definitely not your Slytherin side showing through. That curse must've hit you harder than you thought. If I'm not careful I end up all goody-goody Gryffindor!' I thought and went back to my letter.
'I don't even know why I'm writing this. I've just seen him yesterday but I already feel the need to talk to him. He is one of the only people who understand me. I should send Deimos with this. The owl's are loyal but I don't trust them with a letter like this,' my thoughts continued without me being able to stop them.
'Dear Tom,
I hope you're well and that the teachers don't treat you too horribly because of who you are. Most of them don't understand that you are not like Voldemort at all. They just assume you want to be like that.
Draco and Harry pranked me this morning by yelling right into my ear and tickling me. I got retaliation though. They were quite pissed after that, literally I might add because they dropped their tea in their laps 'accidentally'.
I really hope that you can stay at Hogwarts after summer.
Your friend,
Carya'
Well this isn't exactly how I feel but it will have to do. I won't make the first step. That must come from him. I have to admit that I do like Tom, very much indeed but there's no way he would like a Half-Blood witch with a dubious family history. Wait a second! The Familiaris Charm!
We haven't performed it yet. I want to find out about our family tree. I will have to ask Harry and Draco later if they want to help me,' Carya sighed and went back to her potions book but she again would forget about the charm even before dinner came around.
~*~*~ End Carya Potter POV ~*~*~
The following days were quiet and sunny. Neither of the children had the willpower to do anything but be lazy. Harry and Draco had already gotten replies and sent back a new set of letters. Carya was still waiting for a response.
~*~*~ Those days at Hogwarts ~*~*~
It was only June 20th and the students had just left yesterday. The professors were currently in a teachers conference and discussed one issue in particular. They were talking about Tom Riddle and what should be done about him.
"Albus, you can't be serious! This boy is dangerous. You know what he will become in the future!" yelled an agitated Professor Sprout.
"You're wrong Samira. I don't think this Tom is going to turn. Mister Riddle has friends now. Good friends who even forgave him for hurting them. I think we should keep an open mind about him and then decide whether or not he can attend school here," Albus explained.
Severus just glared at him. The Slytherin head of house did know what Dumbledore referred to but he still didn't trust the Riddle boy farther than he could throw him without the use of magic. He was suspicious at best.
It was beyond his understanding how the Potter's could've forgiven him. Although he agreed with most of his colleagues on one point he disagreed on an important other. Letting Tom Riddle stay was perhaps dangerous but it was even more dangerous to kick him out.
The Death Eaters that were still around would find out about him and use the boy to get their Master back. Severus suspected that this was one of the headmasters reasons too but he kept silent. In the end it was agreed that they would watch the boy for some time before reaching the final decision.
Their opinion of Tom should get a new layer when dinner came around. The boy sat with the teachers and didn't say a word. He hardly ate anything and he seemed to feel very uncomfortable. He knew that the professors were watching him and therefore didn't look up once from his plate.
Because of this he didn't notice the raven that came soaring into the Great Hall. The teachers were eyeing the animal curiously since most didn't recognise it. Only Snape and Dumbledore knew whose pet this could be. It was either Harry or Carya Potter's raven and the bird was carrying a letter.
Deimos circled above the strange humans and finally found the one his mistress had sent him to. He flew down and landed on the table in front of Tom who suddenly looked up. The bird hopped over to him and stretched out his leg so that the boy could untie the letter.
Once Tom had finished that task Deimos ruffled his feathers, gave a small cry and flew away. Tom stared at the letter. It was from Carya. He didn't know what to think of this. Feeling awkward under the gazes of the teachers he quickly excused himself and retreated to his rooms where he read the letter.
The boy didn't know why but he was a bit afraid of the contents of this letter. That was strange because he normally didn't fear anything at all. He blamed it on the current situation though and finally read it.
After he had finished Tom was even more confused than ever. She really seemed to care about him. But he had tried to seriously harm her. The letter said so little yet it implied so much more. Tom didn't know if he should or could write an answer to this.
He thought it would be better if he slept a night over this and then decided what to do. And he did just that. Around lunch on June 21st Tom had reached a decision. He would take the risk and write back.
His only problem was that the school owls didn't trust him and it took him the better half of the day to convince one to carry his letter. Dumbledore noticed the boys nervousness over the following days and wondered about that.
He didn't know what had been in that letter but it had to be important for the boy. A few days later the raven was back with another note. Once again it landed in front of Tom and this time it stayed eyeing Tom curiously until the boy had given him a piece of bacon.
Tom nearly smiled at this. The bird was just as persistent as its owner. Again Tom left the teachers and went outside to read it. Carya asked him many things about his daily life but she seemed most concerned about how the professors treated him.
He decided to tell her about all of them in detail. And this time he immediately found an owl that took his message to his new friend.
~*~*~ Black Manor ~*~*~
Carya waited impatiently for a reply. Tom hadn't said much in his first letter and she so wanted to know if he was alright. She hadn't told anyone about her writing those letters yet because she still didn't know why.
But she thought that it was time to talk to someone. She would ask Remus about this. He always had some good advice for her if she ever needed some. When Tom's reply arrived on June 26th she was just eating dinner with the others.
Draco and Harry recognised the owl as a school owl but didn't bother asking their sister. Remus and Sirius noticed too and looked at each other briefly before the were interrupted by Carya who was leaving the dining-room with a mumbled apology.
The letter was quite long this time and Tom explained in great detail which teacher treated him how. She was surprised that McGonagall and Dumbledore were almost nice to him while Snape was, well he was Snape, the greasy bastard git of a Potions Master as the students named him.
It was around eleven p.m. when Carya went to the study where Remus should be just now. And she was right but Sirius was with him. The girl sighed heavily and decided that she would just have to tell them both and hope they would understand.
After she was finished Sirius was still suspicious but Remus seemed to be deep in thought.
"Do you like him?" he asked his goddaughter and Carya nodded carefully.
"How can you like him, Carya, he tried to kill you, Harry and Ginny. I don't understand this!" Sirius interrupted.
"Please Padfoot. I ... its just, he is not Voldemort. He is only Tom Riddle and innocent of the crimes his other self committed. You can't blame him for that. I don't know why I feel this way but I still believe that helping him truly was the right thing to do.
Please try and understand me Siri, I couldn't stand to loose your support," Carya mumbled helplessly and looked to the floor, her eyes pressed shut.
Normally she wasn't flustered that easily but her godfather meant very much to her. Her emotions were conflicting at best right now since she was unable to explain her own feelings. Sirius saw what she did and sighed. She wouldn't act like this if she didn't really believe in her actions.
"I ... okay, little wolf, I won't question that but I still don't like it at all," he answered and hugged the girl.
Remus just smiled. She was serious about her relationship with Tom Riddle, he could smell that too. Otherwise she wouldn't have asked for advice either. Now he only had to find out how much she liked the other boy.
"Carya, can you tell me how exactly you feel about Tom?" he inquired gently.
"I ... I seem unable to get him out of my mind. Whenever I'm just sitting somewhere thinking, he is there. I can't stop and I don't know why. When I was on the train I couldn't stop it either. It feels really weird but right all the same.
Every time I see Harry and Draco talking about their girlfriends I can't help thinking about Tom and how he is doing. And I was really happy when he answered my letters," she answered.
"I see, you really should go to bed now, child. We'll talk more tomorrow when you're not falling asleep, deal pup?" Remus told her and she just nodded.
Carya hadn't realised how tired she was otherwise she would've frowned at Remus loving nickname for her. Sirius and Remus were discussing this issue the whole night and in the end they agreed that they would help the girl but watch from the distance just in case.
Letters were now sent back and forth between the children. Draco and Ginny even floo-talked many evenings. Harry and Hermione were often calling each other by phone and Carya kept writing letters to Tom.
They both were a bit paranoid about their relationship and had started to write in Parselscript because that way only Harry would be able to read their letters. An amused Albus had noticed the change in language and he was curious about the contents but he didn't ask the boy.
He and Minerva watched Tom every time he got a letter and it was clear that he liked the contents since his whole face lit up whenever he got another letter and when he read them. They both had never seen this side of Tom Riddle before and it was a welcome change.
Although his face was still as guarded as ever he didn't hide every single emotion anymore. His eyes showed most of what he was feeling now. By the time August rolled around Hermione and Ginny had gotten permission from their parents to stay the next weeks at Black Manor.
Harry and Draco were ecstatic about that. Carya was happy for them but she really missed Tom. Over the last few weeks she had realised that she was in love with the other boy. He understood what she was feeling and thinking.
Not even Draco who had been raised by a Death Eater understood her way of thinking about magic - Tom did though.
(A/N: As you might have noticed - Carya is the darker one of the twins *evilgrin*!)
This was one of the reasons they had started to write in Parsel. They didn't want the teachers or their guardians to know about those conversations. Meanwhile the teachers had come to the conclusion that Tom would be allowed to attend Hogwarts if he wished to do so.
~*~*~ Headmaster Dumbledore's Office - July 27th ~*~*~
"Hello, Tom. I think you know why I've called you here?" Albus asked the boy and he nodded.
"The professors have agreed that you'll be allowed to stay at Hogwarts if this is your wish," the old wizard explained and Tom's face brightened.
"Of course I want to stay!" the boy exclaimed but then added softly, "... not that I have anywhere else to go other than a dratted orphanage."
"Am I right that you'd be a fifth or sixth year now?" Albus asked ignoring Tom's last sentence for now.
"Eh, I think I would be fifth only but I'd rather start in fourth year, sir. I mean, so much has happened over the last fifty years. Not only in history but there are so many new developments in other departments that I don't think I'm up to more than that," Tom said.
Albus was convinced that there was more than this to the boys decision but he accepted and Tom would be a fourth year now. He only needed to be resorted now.
"Well, that's settled then. Now we only need to resort you," the headmaster said and a look of panic flashed over the boys face.
'Oh Merlin, what if I end up in Gryffindor or worse Hufflepuff?' he thought.
"Tom, are you alright?" the headmaster wanted to know and handed Tom the Sorting Hat.
'Well, here goes nothing,' the boy thought and put the hat on.
'Ah, whom do we have here? Long time no see Mister Riddle,' the Hat murmured in Tom's mind.
'Eh, ... you could say that. Would you please get over with this? I feel awkward talking to a hat, no offence but ...,' Tom thought but was interrupted.
'Always the impatient one, huh? That hasn't changed at all but something else has ... Much confusion I see but the same thirst for knowledge. Yes, I made the right decision once. You'll stay in SLYTHERIN!' the Hat said and shouted out the last part.
Tom let out a breath he hadn't know he was holding and Dumbledore watched him amused. The boy had indeed changed a bit from what he could see. He hoped that the new found friendship with Carya Potter would help him to stay on the path of light.
"Well, Tom, since that is settled then I'll tell you what we'll do now. You will be introduced to the other students as a transfer from 'Calgary Institute of Magic' since no one apart from the Potter twins and their friends know about you.
They all have agreed to keep your identity a secret. You will of course have to be 'sorted' at the feast again but the hat will know what to do then. That brings me to another topic. Which additional classes would you like to take this time?" Albus asked.
"I think I'll mostly stick to those I originally had. I'll take Ancient Runes, Arithmancy and Latin instead of Care of Magical Creatures. Eh, sir? What about Hagrid? I don't think he would want to keep quiet about me. I ... hurt him too much, I think," the dark-haired boy said in a small voice.
Tom seemed scared. Hagrid was the only one apart from Harry, Carya and Ginny who had been really hurt by his actions. Oh, apart from 'Moaning Myrtle' that is but well, she was a ghost now and he couldn't help her anymore.
Dumbledore had already thought about that too and talked to his groundskeeper and current Care of Magical Creatures teacher.
"Don't worry about that, my dear boy. Hagrid has agreed to keep quiet but you can't expect him to like you," the headmaster began and watched Tom.
"He has done that?" Tom exclaimed wide eyed, his face wearing a shocked expression that faded quickly into one of self-loathing, "I don't deserve this. After all I've done they are still nice to me. Ginny, Harry, Carya and even Hagrid. It's not fair to them ..." he whispered.
"Don't think like that Tom. It might be difficult for all of you the first few months but I have no doubt that if you really want to try they'll see the real you pretty soon. I think one of them already has seen it and wants to be your friend?" Albus inquired smiling at the boy in front of him.
Tom saw this and blushed furiously. Albus was once again surprised. The Tom Riddle he knew had never done such a thing. Not even when he had been deeply embarrassed by something.
"Just don't hurt the girl. I doubt that her godfather would take that lightly. He is a very protective man, you know?" Dumbledore told him and Tom nodded.
"I have no intention to hurt Carya, sir. I ... she's my friend and she's given me so much already," he mumbled and Dumbledore dismissed him quickly after that.
~*~*~ End Headmaster Dumbledore's Office ~*~*~
The twins' and Draco's friends would come over on Harry and Carya's birthday. They had also invited Cat and Terence since they had become friends somehow over the last two weeks at school. Carya had wanted to invite Tom too but Dumbledore had not allowed that because of the circumstances.
Both teens had been sad but they understood. Tom would fire-call her that evening though and wish her a happy birthday. The Weasley twins would be there once again and they would surely glue themselves to every word Sirius said. They were still in 'Marauder-worshipping-mode'.
Ginny and Hermione arrived around ten in the morning and the twins plus Draco had just gotten up. They were sitting in the dining-room having breakfast when the doors flew open and revealed the two girls.
Both boys leapt up from their chairs and hugged their girlfriends. Padfoot, Moony and Carya watched them with a smile but Carya was still sad that Tom wasn't allowed to come over too. Sirius felt bad for her and put his hand on her shoulder.
"Don't worry, Carya. I bet he misses you too," Sirius offered smiling slightly.
He had been right. This one sentence from him meant very much to his goddaughter and she smiled at him. Carya got up as well and greeted her friends. The spent a great morning together and planned a prank for the Weasley twins.
Fred and George would have to wear green clothes the whole day if this worked. And it did. As soon as the twins stumbled out of the fireplace their clothes turned green. But there was an unexpected side-effect. Their hair changed colour too. It was now blue with green streaks in it.
Carya, Harry, Draco, Ginny and Hermione were lying on the floor and laughing when Sirius and Remus entered the room to greet the new guests. They were both gaping at the Weasleys and started grinning too.
"It seems they finally got their revenge on the two of you, eh, Fred and George?" Sirius asked slyly.
Although both boys were still a bit flustered by this attack they couldn't help but smile soon after. Sirius was right. These were the children of a Marauder and when you angered them with a prank you could be sure that they would retaliate one way or another.
"Don't worry. This will definitely wear off sometime tomorrow. I made sure of that," Carya told them smirking.
Another signal told them that Cat and Terence would arrive any second now. Both children fell out of the fireplace and landed on each other. This sent the assembled teens into laughing fits again. This time including Fred and George.
The two new guests picked themselves off the floor and glared at the others. But it didn't last long. Soon the kids and the two adults were sitting in the garden chatting happily about their holidays.
Their presents were mostly books once again. Hermione had bought them a leather-bound version of 'Lord of the Rings' by J.R.R. Tolkien. Ginny and Draco gave Harry a coupon over 15 Galleons for 'Quality for Quidditch' and Carya got the same amount to be spent at 'Flourish & Blotts'.
Cat and Terence had asked Hermione what the twins would like. They gave Harry a new game for his Playstation and Carya got a new role-playing game for her computer.
The children had a fantastic day and it seemed too soon as it was time for Cat and Terence to floo home. They hadn't noticed that it was already past eleven. Carya had already left the group around ten when she retreated to her room.
She knew Tom would call her around half past ten so she waited up there. Promptly at the agreed time the fire turned green and Tom's head appeared.
"Hello Carya! Happy birthday!" Tom said and smiled at his friend.
"Hi Tom! Thanks, how are you?" Carya asked him blushing slightly.
"I'm fine, thanks. Everything okay? You look a bit off," he told her softly.
"Nope, I'm alright. It's quite warm here, that's the only problem," she answered grinning to mask her nervousness.
"Good to hear. The dungeons are quite agreeable at this weather, you know? Are you going to get your school supplies soon? I've heard the letters were sent yesterday," Tom asked.
"Don't know. We haven't gotten ours yet. I'm really glad that you'll be at Hogwarts next term. I won't be so alone then with all the lovebirds around me," Carya teased and Tom actually started grinning.
"Can be quite annoying at times, eh? I still have no clue how to pay for my supplies though. I doubt I'll be given access to my old vault at Gringotts but I don't want to ask Dumbledore either. He's already going to pay for a new wand if he doesn't forget with all fuss about the new term. I'll be going on the first day of classes to get one," Tom explained.
"Really? I hope I can accompany you. Don't worry about the rest Tom! I'll find a solution for that. And if I don't find something I'll lend you some money for your supplies without anyone knowing," Carya told him seriously,
"Oh, Sirius is calling. Damnit, I wished I could stay but it seems Cat and Terence have to leave now. Bye Tom! See you at Hogwarts! I'll write when I know the date of the shopping trip," she continued and the connection ended.
Fred and George stayed overnight and they played a game of Quidditch the next day. Sirius and Remus joined them too. Remus played referee because they still were an uneven number. They were playing without the Bludgers and therefore without Beaters.
Harry, Sirius, Hermione and Fred were the blue team while Draco, Carya, Ginny and George were the green team. Harry and Draco played Seeker, Carya and Sirius played Keeper and the rest played Chaser.
The game ended 170 to 140 for Harry's team because he caught the snitch. Sirius was deeply embarrassed that the kids had scored fourteen times with him as keeper and that his own team had only scored twice before Harry had caught the winged little ball.
Two days later their Hogwarts letters arrived and they made plans for a trip to Diagon Alley. Carya of course wanted to go to Knockturn Alley once again because she needed to restock some potions ingredients that were far too expensive in Diagon Alley.
The adults agreed if Draco went with her and they used the same disguise as the last time. Both children grinned at each other and promised to be careful.
