Ginny's POV: October 13th, 12:30 PM

Shit shit shit SHIT! Gotta find Neville!

I was running through the halls, dragging Luna behind me. 

This is bad...

"Ginny, I see him, slow down!"

We plowed into Neville, and the three of us fell through a tapestry on the wall into one of the school's many secret hideaways. I heard a yelp.

"Sorry Nev, but there's something I have to tell you both."

I stood up. We were in a dark room full of shadows. No matter. This would be best discussed in the dark anyways so we don't attract attention.

I heard Luna help Neville to his feet. "What's so important, Ginny?"

I took a deep breath.

"It's the transfer students. They're death eaters." 

I heard a sharp intake of breath, I couldn't tell if it was from Luna or Neville.

Neville spoke up. "How do you know?"

"Oh, please, they're terrible at hiding it. They say weird things all the time, and are super strange, for one."

"People say I'm weird and strange too, and no one's going around accusing me of being a death eater," Luna pointed out."

"Well, you don't have a tattoo on your arm. I've seen like five of them with a forearm tattoo that I'm pretty sure is the dark mark. They're terrible at hiding it."

Neville sounded worried. "Who has the tattoo?"

"Well, this might be hard to believe, but Jason, Hazel, and Frank are some of them."

"No. How? What?"

I started counting off on my fingers "Jason, Hazel, Frank, that Percy kid, Reyna, and I think that Alex has a neck tattoo so I'm not sure about her. And Nico definitely gives Death Eater vibes. I heard him joking about murdering someone with that Reyna girl."

They were stunned into silence, so I continued. "I'm not entirely sure about the others, but since they act as if they have been friends for years, I'm going to assume they're all Death Eaters. Plus I've never even heard of 'Olympus School of Magic'. Vol- ugh, You-Know-Who has planted very poorly concealed spies at Hogwarts."

Luna finally broke the silence. "What are we going to do?"

I cracked my knuckled for dramatic effect. "We, the last members of Dumbledore's Army, are going to get to the bottom of this. Come on, we need to go think of a plan to get information out of them." I led my friends out of the hideaway.

Nico's POV: October 13th, 12:39 PM

Shit shit shit SHIT!

I watched Ginny and Neville leave with the other girl. I liked to walk around the castle, and had found this secret area on one of my walks. I was minding my business, when the three of them tumbled in. I may have screamed a little. 

This is bad. We've only been here for a little over a month, how the FUCK did we get caught already?! Gods dam it. I need to find Reyna.

I slipped away into the shadows.

I appeared in the air, two feet above a table. I landed with a crash. I was in the library, on top of an old wooden table covered on books. Reyna was to my left, looking alarmed. Frank was right in front of me, so shocked he had turned into a small bulldog. Hazel was to my right, looking like she'd seen a ghost. Close, but not quite. 

Suddenly the librarian hustled in and yelled at us for making a racket. Thank the gods she didn't see Frank since he hid under the table. Once she left I turned to my friends. 

"Frank, bud, pull yourself together. We have something to discuss."

Frank turned back into a person. They all stared at me in confusion.

"They're onto us."

"What?! How?" Hazel and Reyna said in unison. Frank still looked a little shaken.

I glared at them. "They saw your tattoos, and thought they were the same as the ones the Carrows have."

Frank spoke up "That doesn't necessarily mean they're onto us-"

"Well we are going to have to explain the tattoos if we don't want them thinking we're those death eater idiots."

"We can make something up?" Hazel suggested.

Reyna shook her head. "They wouldn't believe us, and they have good reason. Who do they suspect, Nico?"

"Everyone, by association. Ginny has seen the tattoos of everyone who has one, she also noticed a tattoo on Alex's neck. She also suspects me because of my sense of humor..."

"and because you're emo-" 

"shut up, Reyna."

Hazel looked worried. "What's the plan?"

"We wait  it out," Frank said. "Let's see if they initiate the conversation. We don't want to make any unnecessary confessions."

We all nodded in agreement. But there was something still bothering me...

"One last thing. They mentioned a 'Dumbledore's Army'. Wasn't Dumbledore the previous headmaster or something? Why does he have an army?"

"I'm going to stay here and find out. You all need to tell the others what is happening." Reyna said in her praetor voice she only uses when you know shit's about to go down.

Hazel went to look for Jason and Leo.

Frank took Percy and Annabeth.

I went to look for everyone else since I can shadow travel.

This is going to blow up in our faces, isn't it...

A/N: Hi! Sorry it's been awhile, but exam season is finally coming to an end and I can breathe again :) I have a lot more free time now that most of my exams are done, so I'll be able to write more. Thanks for reading, stay hydrated and stuff! Feel free to give suggestions or story ideas, I'm always willing to try them! (Or point out my dumb mistakes, whatever boats your float)
