Chaos, it had been utter chaos. The searing pain that played in her classmates eyes as they were bitten…and that feeling of defeat as they had tried to latch on to her as well. It took a moment for Beth to make it to the surface, and truly it was all thanks to Eria, Prefect Paton, and the Squid that she had truly made it out, well, and Professor Wayland. He was a hero.

Beth knew of course, that she needed to thank them…but there was something else she needed to do. Hobbling a bit the blonde made her way over towards where her Gryffindor friend was. ”D-Daehyun? I’m sorry that I got you into danger…” she was apologizing to him not because of the danger, but because he had been the one to try and stop her.

Had she stayed closer to him maybe – maybe he wouldn’t have been attacked? Maybe none of this would have happened.
