She still kept pointing her wand and Hermione, but it was clear that is she was to shoot a curse it could hit Malfoy, and the chance of her speaking a Killing curse didn’t seem unlikely at all, not when she was so full of anger and instability. Hermione thought of what to do. Malfoy stood before Bellatrix empty hand, Hermione wasn’t sure if he really didn’t have a wand with him or if he was not taking it out on purpose. Maybe he believed his aunt wouldn’t hurt him? Hermione wasn’t so sure of it, so she had to take precautions. She slowly leaned down to grasp the skirt of her dress, and started pulling it up, trying no to draw Bellatrix’s attention. It seemed to be working because her attention was still on Malfoy, whose body hid Hermione from view.
