Kurumi had kept her attention on the Headmaster and Professor Scabior as they continued to negotiate with Ranog, but she did notice that the Chimaera had decided to return to the forest. GOOD! One less dangerous creature to worry abo---

Kurumi's eyes widened. What was that seventh year DOING? Kurumi would have thought that she would have had more sense than to go chasing after a dangerous creature like that, especially when the Headmaster and a professor were standing RIGHT there. Kurumi was tempted to go something drastic, like freeze her or cast Glisseo at her feet to cause her to fall, but she decided to keep her wand in her pocket this time. "Psst, leave him alone," Kurumi hissed at the girl. "It just wants to go back to the forest." And had finally decided not to eat anyone and now she was encouraging it to change her mind.

Kurumi then shifted her attention back to the two Hufflepuff boys, noting Oakey glaring at her. Hey, if he was mad about the silencing spell, Nate could only blame himself. He had been told several times by the Headmaster AND Professor Scabior to keep quiet and he hadn't. Still, she shrugged her shoulders and turned her attention to the Chimaera as it continued to walk off.

"I wonder...what made it change it's mind..." she wondered out loud. Did this mean that Ranog was going back into the forest as well?
