“We’re lost!” she yells and turns her brown eyes on me. The accusatory nature in them makes me bristle and I do my best to keep from making a rude gesture with fingers in her direction. I’m doing the best I can but it doesn’t seem to be enough for her. She points a finger at me. “This is your entire fault, Sirius Black! If you had listened to me we wouldn’t be here! We’ll starve! We’ll never be found!”

She’s exaggerating. She knows this too. I can tell because she refuses to look at me and instead starts kicking one of the tall hedges. I snort and cross my arms against my chest. It’s up to me to save us; as per usual.

“Relax, Andy,” I drawl. “If we can’t find a way out we’ll just have to make our own.” I pull out my wand and aim it at the edge. Andromeda moves away. “Reducto!” I yell. The spell blasts through the greenery. It leaves a gaping and fuming hole. Andromeda yelps in disbelief. She starts yelling obscenities at me. I merely grin and blow on the smoky end of my wand.

A job well done yet again.
