Dumbledore placed a hand on the young witch's shoulders. "You couldn't have known that they would leave the house while you were still asleep. I asked you to come stay here to keep an eye on things but, I never expected you to keep grown wizards in line.

"Well, I suppose we can ask Snape what happened but, the only way I can see that they would have been able to get the body out would have been to have waited for the other Death Eaters to leave first. And if Severus had been there, he would have stopped them or helped them and they would not have sustained the injuries they have."
