"You said you'd already worked out that egg clue!" said Hermione indignantly.
"Keep your voice down!" said Harry. "I just need to sort out all the details, all right?"
Harry, Ron, Celeste, and Hermione were sitting at the very back of the Charms class with a table to themselves. They were supposed to be practicing the opposite of the Summoning Charm today - the Banishing Charm. Professor Flitwick had given each student a stack of cushions on which to practice, the theory being that these wouldn't hurt anyone if they went off target. It was a good theory, but it wasn't working very well. Neville's aim was so poor that he kept accidentally sending much heavier things flying across the room - Professor Flitwick, for instance. However, the chaos was a perfect cover for the quartet, giving them a place to talk without getting bothered.
"Just forget the egg for a minute, all right?" Harry hissed. "I'm trying to tell you about Snape and Moody..."
"Snape said Moody's searched his office as well?" Ron whispered, his eyes alight with interest. "What...d'you reckon Moody's here to keep an eye on Snape as well as Karkaroff?"
"Well, I dunno if that's what Dumbledore asked him to do, but he's doing it," Harry said. "Moody said Dumbledore only lets Snape stay here because he's giving him a second chance or something..."
"What?" said Ron, his eyes widening."Harry...maybe Moody thinks Snape put your name in the Goblet of Fire!"
"Oh Ron," said Hermione, shaking her head skeptically, "we thought Snape was trying to kill Harry before, and it turned out he was saving Harry's life, remember?"
"Something isn't adding up though," Celeste said slumping in her chair.
She banished a cushion and it flew across the room and landed in the box they were all supposed to be aiming at.
"I don't care what Moody says," Hermione went on. "Dumbledore's not stupid. He was right to trust Hagrid and Professor Lupin, even though loads of people wouldn't have given them jobs, so why shouldn't he be right about Snape, even if Snape is a bit -"
"- evil," said Ron promptly. "Come on, Hermione, why are all these Dark wizard catchers searching his office, then?"
"Why has Mr. Crouch been pretending to be ill?" said Hermione, ignoring Ron. "It's a bit funny, isn't it, that he can't manage to come to the Yule Ball, but he can get up here in the middle of the night when he wants to?"
"You just don't like Crouch because of that elf, Winky," said Ron.
"And you just want to think Snape's up to something," Celeste interrupted.
