"Yeah, I'm one hundred percent sure I'm not Theo, or in any way related to him. I'm Kennedy Escalante." Seriously, where was the resemblance? Oh, crud. She was already moving on to another topic. One he really didn't want to talk over with kids. They tend to panic quick. She seemed informed, though. That was slightly okay.
"As the Headmistress mentioned at the Feast, yes. We are here to keep an eye out on things and make sure you're all safe." How many times has he said this in the last twenty four hours? Eh, it didn't matter. Curious kids were curious. He should be used to it by now.
Riiiiight. Okay, so he wasn't Theo.
"That would make sense, because I saw you trying to get away from me," she pointed out. Yup--called you out on that one!
"Plus, I thought maybe Theo had ditched his badge or something, because...he's Head Boy." In case whoever this guy was didn't know.
"KENNEDY ESCALANTE!" she suddenly called out, as if she'd been looking for this guy for forever and had suddenly found him. She hadn't, but that was what it seemed like.
So, first things first--...
"You know, Kennedy, if you're going to be an Auror, I think you should work on your trust a little more. As in, maybe you shouldn't hide things and have people believe things that just aren't true," she said.
