On second thought, maybe that visit to one of the castles would have to be postponed.

With that car nearly crushing her best friend in front of her eyes, Vivian held a tight grip on both Skylar and Kye's wrists. Car accidents didn't seem like a good idea, and it will definitely never be a good idea, not when it meant almost losing someone close to one's heart. "Okay... we will have to walk together carefully," the prefect said, her eyes full of concern as she watched her quidditch captain. She didn't even mind that some of Sky's flying ice cream came splatting on her shirt as she was more focused on her friends, and everyone's safety.

And then, it happened again. First, Vivian was confused and looked around for whoever started the chanting. It was her co-prefect, Jessa... and she was repeating that phrase. Over and over again. And then it wasn't just Jessa. It was Faith... then Emmalyn... then Stasya... and it all looked like a horrible game of domino after that. Alarmed, the prefect might have squeezed both of her dormies' hands a bit too tight. "Wh-what's happening?" she asked, then lowered her voice. "Sky, we're not supposed to reveal ourselves. What are they doi—"

Loosening her grip from both girls, Vivian's hand felt an itch to reach down her pocket for her wand, her eyes starting blankly at Kye. No expressions. How very un-Vivian. "Expose the inequality, end the struggle," the prefect repeated, over and over.
