Great. Another problem.
"Maddie!" she exclaimed, running up to the older girl to help her up. "Are you ok?!" she then turned to the treasure and frowned, groaning. "How are we supposed to get the treasure when they're protected by the spells!?"
She didn't know the first thing about disarming the charms. Maddie was older, but only by a few years, so she probably didn't know how to do it either. If they didn't get that treasure, they wouldn't be able to stop the Inferi!
Maddie was still wincing a little, when she heard the footsteps closing in on her. She gasped a little, but then she relaxed when she saw Nettie.
"I'm okay," she grumbled, a little annoyed at how sore she was. She was more annoyed at herself for being so quick to help out that she almost got herself into big trouble in the meantime. She sighed and allowed Nettie to help her up.
"Professor Kennedy's on his way, I think," she answered, and then she froze. A thought had just occurred to her. What if the Inferi got here before Kennedy did? Then it'd be just her and Nettie alone with them.
"Nettie!" she said, withdrawing her wand.
"Get your wand at the ready, just in case. If you hear someone coming, be on alert. Just make sure you know who it is before you act. If it's the Inferi, you know what to do."
Come on, Kennedy...
