After Lord Voldemort's announcement, Harry, Ron, and Hermione crawl back through the tunnel leading out of the Shrieking Shack. The trio is silent, each lost in their own thoughts, with Lord Voldemort's ultimatum haunting their minds. As they reach the lawn of Hogwarts, they notice the absence of Grawp and his attacker but press on toward the castle, anxious about the next steps.
