Vlad's eyes widened at the first sight of the wand. He couldn't go anywhere with a damn wizard around. Without hast, Vlad forcefully snatched the wand from the young wizard's hand and used his free hand to squeezed around the boy's neck. "You shouldn't be so proud of that boy," he hissed. "You're lucky you're still alive. And if we weren't in a public place, you wouldn't be." He loosened his hold slightly so the wizard could speak, but he was still planning on killing him. He was just going to have to wait to be more discreet about it. He promised Gellert he would be from now on.
