Ron and Lavender let go of each other's hands and pulled out their wands, giving each other meaningful looks. Both were a part of the D.A. but declined to join the Aurory after Cormac field-promoted all D.A. members into fully-fledged Aurors. There was no way an Auror written off as dead should have been able to just walk into the Ministry of Magic, much less with a Werewolf in tow. Ronald knew there had to be a traitor in the Ministry, perhaps this was one of those so-called "unmarked" that Harry warned him of.
