 Arts TRANSPONSTER!
Anna was distracted from her Knockback Jinx casting when someone zoomed from the Castle towards the group surrounded by Inferi in a broom. That was a brilliant idea and she wished she had HER broom there with her so she could get closer to the chaos without being in danger.
The person was flying so fast and so high up that she couldn't exactly tell who it was, though the flight technique proved it was probably a fellow Quidditch player and she couldn't help but feel proud of the sport and what fellow players could do with their abilities.
If only she knew other of her fellow players were some of the ones fighting for their lives at the moment, but she was still pretty far away to see who exactly those in the group were. The Gryffindor realised her Jinxes weren't being as effective as she'd hoped, so she held her breath and actually debated whether acting Gryffindor-like and dashing off towards the group was the best decision at that moment.
It seemed like a lost cause. The group was definitely being overtaken and some of the living seemed to be going down or pretty near so. Still holding her breath, the third year hesitated for a second before running their way.
Ugh, death wish, ugh ugh ugh. But it was the right thing to do, she knew it in her bones. Ollie was definitely out there fighting too, and had Matt been there he would be in the thick of it as well, she was sure. She couldn't stay out just because she was afraid. Knowing her brothers, they probably wouldn't be afraid were they in her shoes - little did she know, though - but Anna was, in fact, terrified. All the thoughts rushing through her mind as she ran towards the Inferi and the outnumbered group of living people made her question her decision even more, but she tried to keep the image of her own brothers fighting for their lives and the lives of their friends vividly in her mind.
She was a Meriwether TOO and would make their name proud TOO!
The adrenaline rush in her was so intense that when she was a lot closer to the chaos all she could do was raise her wand RIGHT AT THE CLOSEST INFERI AND NOT TOWARDS ANY OF THE LIVING PEOPLE and struggle to catch her breath because of the awful smell. She was still outside the circle and had ZERO intentions on getting in the actual midst of it, but still. SHE WAS THERE. MERLIN. "EXPULSO!" She yelled the first spell that came to her mind that would cause the Dark Creatures to stay AWAY from her and, with any luck, push many of them back as far and hard as possible. Hopefully cause some of the Inferi to explore as well, that would be useful.
Gross, but useful. |
