“Did you hear that?”

“Hear what, Lupin?”

“That!”

Severus sighed irritably. “Probably a ghost. Honestly, I’d be better off cleaning out this store room.... What was that?”

“I just told you..." Lupin sighed. "It sounds like a Red Cap to me.”

“Don’t be ridiculous,” Snape scoffed. “Red Caps can’t live inside Hogwart’s,” he added, trying to sound confident.

“Oh, really?”

“Really.”

“Then what are those?”

Snape turned to see two Red Caps moving towards them. Both wizards quickly pulled their wands and hexed the creatures.

After pocketing his wand, Remus turned to Severus, smirking. “Just a ghost?”

“Shut up, Lupin.”
