Before he could move any further the Charms Professor was upon him, casting a shield over them for which the leonine lad was grateful. But now Noelle found the one thing that made him even more confidently secure "mY WAnD! ThanKS Noelle!" he said as he took the Alder wood and grimaced through the pain of trying to get himself off the floor.
And now the Healer was here, and the Gryffindor Prefect grasped the man's strong arm to prop himself onto a less pathetic seating position. "I hurts..... everywhere." It was the simplest, not to mention probably the most accurate way he can put it.
He heard Noelle ask a very valid question "I only saw one go through. Big nasty ugly thing. I dunno if it got friends in there." He sure as hell hoped not.
He turned his attention back to the Healer "Do you have something for the pain Healer Reed? We gotta go after that nasty thing before it turns all of Hogwarts into his personal smorgasbord!"
See, it takes more than a ragdoll toss to keep this Gryffindor down. Look he's already trying to get on his wobbly feet.

Camilla couldn't believe her eyes when not even one of their spells had managed to hit that thing! Heck they hadn't even slowed it down!
"Mr Westwood, Mr Kenendy!," she shouted after the two young men as they took off down the corridor after the monster! What were those two thinking?! Dear Merlin this couldn't be happening. She needed to go after them and make sure they were safe, someone ha- what? Hearing her name she nodded letting out a breath to see her cousin as well as Rose join them. "I already alerted the Headmistress as well as all of the staff via patronus. Healer Reed should be on his way I sent Pips for him." Everyone of the staff was alerted hopefully. She had went to open her mouth to say more but the voice of Regina reached her ears. Perfect! With an announcement like that all students would hopefully return to their common rooms. "Good idea Rose. Stick with Kay, please. I'll do a trip along this floor then head to the seventh floor before working back down."
Just then River arrived and she let out a breath of relief. "River do you need someone to stay here and keep a lookout or are you alright?" If he needed a hand with Tenacuis she could do that as well. She was still a bit in shock but now wasn't the time to focus on her, the students were in danger and that's what mattered.
As for the students standing around... "Miss Summers I need you to make sure everyone here returns to their common rooms please. Be safe and alert." She gave her firm nod telling her to go. Now. Looking at all other students she spoke to them as well. "You heard the Headmistress, return to your common rooms. Follow Noelle."
Not good. Not good at all. Amid the commotion, River did not fail to observe that Tenacius seemed to slur his words a bit, and River feared that he may have injured one of his cervical vertebrae-- the one responsible for his speech. However, the boy was still conscious...and just wouldn't stop talking. It was a good sign, anyway.
"And why do you ache everywhere, Prefect?" the Healer helped the boy get in an upright position, and continued to examine him only to stop short when he felt something damp against the boy's curls.
"I will be fine Camilla, thank you. Prefect Salander and I will not be staying here any longer anyway," he said as he pulled back his hand and showed that his digits were stained with Tenacius' blood.
"I'm afraid you are not going anywhere, Prefect. You are done patrolling this hallway," he said, as he quickly got hold of the teenager and started to drag him away from the scene.
"Have faith in your peers, Prefect Salander. Hogwarts is a strong unit when united. That monster will not stand a chance, however, you need to get patched up." River cannot help but feel that he will have a very busy Hospital Wing this afternoon.
Merlin, help 'em all.
