Janelle appreciated her Head of House's comforting smile. It definitely made her feel better among the chaos. "No, I made it down here safely. I'm fine." Although, if Janelle had passed any spiders on her way down from the seventh floor, she would never have seen them. She was running so fast, fueled by fear and adrenaline, that all she could focus on was getting to the Great Hall. What she wanted to do now was make sure that her friends and classmates were OK.

"Mr. Kitridge? What can I do to help?" Janelle felt so useless just stannding around. Besides, standing still gave her too much time to think about the acromantulas and be afraid. Being busy took the mind off of........things.
