"Who did THIS? Who is responsible for this horrific act against the libraries precious books?" Letting his eyes travel over the students, Mr Kitridge's eyes stopped on the Gryffindor prefect.
"Mr Gert, what has happened here? Do you know who did this?" he asked in a voice trembling with emotion.
Going over to the damaged books Leobald kneeled down on the floor and carefully picked up the precious book pages in his hands with warmth showing in his eyes and even a few tears.
"Don't worry, little ones. I shall fix this. You will be back where you belong in no time. I just need to patch you up and you'll be good as new, good as new." He mumbled reassuringly to the pages. Rising to his feet Leo looked over at Sarah, Vickers and Laura.
"Do you know if these are the only damaged books? Have you checked the rest of the library?"
Sheltering the torn out pages against his chest, Mr Kitridge just stood inpassive.
Mr Kitridge's worst nightmare was now fact.
Sarah kept her eyes on the librarian expression as he saw the books. She did not like breaking sad news to people. Well Sarah liked being the source of information... she knew lots about people. Sarah was quick on her feet. "
No sir... If you want I can check.. I hope not... It is a disgrace. I hope it was none of the students I shall check the rest of library if you want, sir. Yet I have not seen anymore... thankfully" Sarah felt sorry for the guy... her mom always said that the only thing that lasts is knowedge and good deeds. et this guy was very attached to his books its seemed. So was Sarah in fact.
