Episode Forty Five
Part Two

"What in the hell are you doing here?" Gwen asked.

"I came back for you." Graves replied.

"Why?"

"You're in grave danger."

"I know that. But…" She couldn't think of something to say. She just gazed at him in disbelief. "This isn't your first visit is it?"

"No. I didn't think anyone would catch me though."

"You scared the shit out of me. I thought you were some… I don't know what I thought you were, but I thought it couldn't be good if someone was sneaking in and out of Hogwarts."

"I've been searching the grounds at night, looking for any other intruders. Things aren't going so well out there Gwen. Voldemort is gaining power again and his supporters are coming back pretty strong. They wanted you dead once and they'll want you dead again. If you're anything half so strong as I think you are, they'll want you dead sooner than later."

She looked at him. "If I'm that strong, then they can't kill me."

"That's a nice thought Gwen, but a little naïve. Voldemort's killed some of the brightest and the best."

A noise from above made them both jump. "You should go." She said quickly.

"What about you?"

"I'm fine. I have this new super power I'll have to show you sometime. Owl me when you get back to wherever it is that you're staying ok?"

"Ok." He said, rushing out of the front doors.

Gwen pushed herself back against the wall and concentrated on invisibility once again. Filch passed her without so much as a side glance and when he had disappeared again she ran as fast as she could back to Gryffindor Tower. When she pushed her nose against the glass of her favorite window safe and warm in her dorm room she saw a cloaked figure stepping into the Forbidden Forest and disappearing as well.
