Antonio had listened to the speech with great interest. He wondered who the new Astronomy professor would be. Suddenly, alarm filled his face again. What had happened to the healer, Nurse Avalon? Come to think of it, he hadn't noticed her at the staff table. Already, more things seemed to be happening, things which were not good.

Both the Headmaster and Professor Lupa were leaving. With a start, Antonio realized what time of month it was. Of course, it made perfect sense, he thought to himself.

Antonio heard something mentioned about a disturbance at the Gryffindor table. He knew it was his responsibility as Head of House to go and investigate the matter as well, so stood up from the table to check on what was happening. Even though Professors Kazimeriz and Vindictus were headed over there, he felt it was his duty to appear there and see what was going on, as well. He stood up. He could pick up some food on the way back, anyway, he was still hungry.
