Lisa sighed, huddling herself to her knees once more. "I'm-I'm fine." She said distantly, her eyes moving back to the forest. She squeezed them shut before leaning on her hands.
"A.J, have you ever been in the Forbidden Forest?" She asked, her mind too occupied to care that Draco was still there.

Ashlee looked at Draco and smiled. "Hi... I heard you. I'm not ignoring you on purpose either. I just thought you didn't like Hufflepuffs talking to you." She stuck her tounge out at him then looked back at Lisa. "Actually, yes I have. I just got back actually..." she pointed to the healing scar on her head. "I got that from it too."

Draco still looked away, his arms folded over his chest while his chin was up in the air superiorly. "You're right I don't." Though his ears still listened to the words the girls said to each other.
His eyes widened, however, with Ashlee's last comment, and he looked at the Hufflepuffs as if they were insane, which, he thought to himself, they probably were.
"You went into the forest?" He said, his voice slightly high-pitched. Then, pointing to the cluster of trees next to them, he added, "That forest?"

Lisa suddenly spun around, facing Ashlee. Her eyes were wide with anxiety and she examined the healing scar on the girl's head. "You're lucky to be alive!" She cried. Then, sitting on her knees, she shook her head.
"You must know then, about.. About the strange things happening in there." She said, her voice strangely quiet.

"Strange things?" Draco said, momentarily forgetting his hatred for their house, his curiosity sparkling in his eyes. "What strange things?"

Lisa looked up at Draco, her eyebrows raised. "The spirit... The-The leaves! The vines, the trees... They're all alive!" Feeling her frustration at not being able to properly explain herself she shook her head, looking back at the lake.
"The evil." She said after a few moments, turning back to stare at her companions.

Ashlee looked at Draco. "Yes THAT forest!." then she turned to Lisa. "All I know is that I got thrown off a damm Thestral, I was almost killed by the fall, AND I got the magic drained out of me by something... " her eyes grew big. "Is that the strange thing ur referring to? The thing that drained me?"

Lisa's eyes widened and she bit her lip. "You saw him, too?" She asked softly, gripping her robes tightly. "Then do you feel it? Do you feel the pull? The pull to go back..."
She trailed off, her eyes looking back at the forest, her eyes fearful.

Ashlee looked away. "I don't know what I saw... All I know is that I fainted then woke up near the edge of the forest." She looked at Lisa. "As far as I know... I haven't had the feeling of wanting to go back... honestly... I feel like staying away from it instead."

Draco's eyebrows furrowed as he leaned closer toward them, "Saw whom?" He asked angrily, annoyed at the little information he was recieving.

Lisa turned to Draco, a slightly apologetic look on her face. "The spirit. The man who can do so much evil without so much as a flick of his wrist." She sighed, burrowing her face in her hands.
"You don't feel it? I know I don't want to go back, but I can't help but thinking about it all the time- I've even been having nightmares about it." She glanced at the forest again, her breath shakey.

Ashlee looked at Malfoy then at Lisa not knowing what to say. She sat there remembering her encounter with the forest and rubbed her back, the pain still hadn't left her.

Draco looked from the shaken Hufflepuff to the slightly confused one. Then, scowling he stood up, his hand disappearing into his cloak for a moment before he brandished his wand.
"I want to meet this man." He said arrogantly, taking a few strides toward the forest.

Ashlee jumped up and grabbed his arm. "Dont." she said firmly. "It's not safe... I don't care if you don't like me or not.. but I'm not letting you go in there and get hurt."

Lisa ran up to them, her eyes wide with fear. Reaching them, she nodded eagerly.
"If you go in there, there's a very large chance you wont come back out."
Then, looking at the forest with a shudder, she added, "And I'm not very sure you do want to meet this man..."
