Maddie grinned when the professor returned her greeting, and then she TRIIIIIED to settle down on her mat until it was time to start class. TRIED was the key word, because some Gryffindor girl came in and made a prediction about class being cancelled, and how funny that comment was got Maddie to fidgeting again. There was no way she was meant to stay still for the entire duration of a lesson!

She was going to try, though! Maddie sat up on her heels and did a little rock back and forth before raising her hand. "What about an animal stampede? Sometimes when a ton of animals are all running in one direction at once, it means something is chasing them," she said. She'd seen that in a few muggle movies. One involved dinosaurs, and when ALLLL of the animals started running, the people started running, too.
