 SUMMER FOREVER
Oh! Oh. It worked!
Etta refrained from heaving a sigh of relief as she looked at Amanda's face, her features clearly expressing confusion. Finally. She felt a little bad too.. a cheering charm would have been better, right? At least, she'd have been happy but.. oh, well. She had to do something. Also, Amanda wouldn't have to remember and go through the pain of those bad memories for a little while.. which Etta was glad about, obviously. Poor girl, having to suffer through a dementor. A dementor and this was only the first challenge too.. gulp. She raised an eyebrow at the girl's question before giving a quick nod of the head and raising her wand to cast a lumos to light her surroundings once again. She had a quick look all around her, deciding that they were pretty safe for now.
"Come on!" Etta grabbed Amanda's hand with her free hand and started to briskly walk in a particular direction. Obviously, she had no idea where she was going.. but just hoped that it was the path to safety. She occasionally turned to look backwards too.. you know, better to check 'cause what if something was following them? Always better to be safe than sorry. Also, making sure that the other girl was keeping pace with her, she kept walking.. her anxiety increasing slightly with every step but also looking extremely alert. The last thing she wanted was to be taken by surprise.. who knew what else lurked in these woods?
Important questions though.. Were they walking in the right direction? Or were they walking right into a trap?
