 Arts TRANSPONSTER!
Anna felt sick when Kamryn's name was mentioned. The Potter kid she didn't know well, but the Hufflepuff was her friend. And yes, she hadn't seen her in a while but now it was 'official'.
The Ministry would be taking on the search for the missing students? Anna had to purse her lips to physically stop her from replying to that from where she was. Although her attention was solely on the Headmaster, she was aware of people interrupting him and basically causing a commotion of sorts.
Whatever it was the other staff members and students were going on about, she didn't care nor did she fully listen to any of it. Which was a good thing because it didn't seem like any of it was relevant enough to the Headmaster. Anna decided not to add to the commotion and instead finally made her way towards Headmaster Trent, ignoring the panicky faces and sobbing and hugging and all of what was happening around her.
As she reached the man, she lowered her voice so hopefully only he could hear. "Headmaster, they might need our help now. I don't know how long the Ministry will take to get here, but they might need us now." She paused for a moment because her overthinking brain was pretty much shouting at her. Of course he had thought of that, she was stating the obvious, but she couldn't bear the fact they weren't doing anything. "I want to help... if there's anything you think we can do." Which, in her mind, didn't mean head counting and taking students safely back to the Common Rooms. Not that kind of help. Anna was dreading the fact that was probably what she was going to be told to do. "I mean help them. Those who are missing." Urgh, if only her being a prefect meant she could actually do something useful! |
