The longer she stood waiting for the arena to fill, the more she began to dissociate from the scene before her. It was in a moment that her eyes almost glazed over, every ounce of her being dedicating itself to the thoughts within her head rather than those of the world surrounding her. She was terrified.
She hadn't even noticed when Eloise came and sat next to her on the floor, curled up. Or when Missa came to join them. Or when their party of three became four with Trinetta. Nina didn't raise her brows when Zai came in following Professor Beryl. She didn't so much as move her mouth when the Headmaster posed his question to the student body. She didn't flinch when he made the announcement of the missing students. She was listening, but only halfheartedly. She didn't raise her head in concern when Chloe McCarthy started to cry, nor did she frown when Professor O'Hara began to pester them into some sort of disagreement. She didn't throw her arms up in protest after hearing the news that they would be forced to live in the Gryffindor Common Room.
In fact, the Slytherin hadn't moved very much at all since picking her spot in the arena. Though she was physically present, she was mentally far-removed from the environment. The fourth-year wore a glassy look in her eye, as she started emptily ahead. Could this be over?
What if they died here?
