Yup.
That just happened.
And the second year ran all the way back to where the Headmistress was standing. Whilst screaming at the top of her lungs. The entire way down.
"AAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!"
Uh. She'd definitely need another seed.... Quote:

And all color drained from his face.
It was happening again, wasn't it? The portal. The Monster.
Derf stood there frozen in spot for another five seconds before he went SPRINTING towards the source of the voice - and Headmistress by proxy which was convenient considering he had remember precisely zero of the instructions given - and entirely abandoned his seed buried several inches deep in mud.
"I'M COMING ZORYN! I'M COMING!"
Sprinting, huffing and puffing, caked in mud, holding his wand in his hand while it continued to produce water like a little personalized sprinkler...the second year was certainly no knight in shining armor but he was TRYING!
Seeing everyone get to work (or at least try to), Regina was about to go make her rounds to see how they all were progressing and whether or not they had questions that needed answering or clarification on the instructions. Since the Beetle was closer, she turned in that direction and made the first few steps along that path.
But the screaming made her stop dead in her tracks. Out of instinct, her body whipped around one-hundred and eighty degrees with her wand at the ready. There were a million things that could have caused someone to scream. Perhaps someone had been bitten by a gnome or something?
Or it simply was Zoryn Spinnet running toward her along the path that led to the Whomping Willow. Merlin. Had she gotten too close? Did the Willow give the girl a smack with one of its branches?
"Hold your hippogriffs, Miss Spinnet. Calm down now," Regina said, placing a hand on the Gryffindor's shoulder. The woman quickly looked her over. She didn't look like the tree had crushed her. She didn't even have a single scratch on her. "You're okay, Zoryn. What --"
Her attention set on the second year was then taken by the creature-loving Hufflepuff who, apparently, was coming to save the day. The woman's eyes widened at the sight of the boy, looking more like he had been bathing himself in mud rather than planting a tree. Regina muttered something under her breath, resisting the urge to move a hand to her forehead and shake her head. What was going on with these second years?
"Everything is okay, Mr. Ashburry-Hawthorne," she reassured him, still staring at . "Miss Spinnet just ... well, what happened, Miss Spinnet? ... And what in Merlin's beard happened to you, Mr. Ashburry-Hawthorne?" Did it have anything to do with the fact that his wand was still producing water? The woman signed. How could he have forgotten such a simple charm? "Finite will help with your water issue, by the way."
"Is there anything I can help you two with?"
