 Arts TRANSPONSTER!
It as all very surreal. They weren't finishing the term at the school, which was a very weird thing on its own already, but they were also there without two fellow students and the school had officially been taken over by the awful mist. Anna still couldn't decide whether the adults couldn't or just wouldn't do anything. She wanted to believe they couldn't and that was why they wouldn't. But wasn't it at least worth a try?
Her teenage mind was too small to consider the fact adults might have tried entering the mist without success.
Still, not a good feeling at all. The fact they hadn't played Quidditch for the last few months wasn't even what was bothering her the most. Of course it wasn't. The sudden thought that the two missing students might have made it out on the other side of the mist and just couldn't get in touch to let everyone know they were okay popped into her mind. She started wondering straight away, however, why Hogsmeade's inhabitants and shopkeepers hadn't told them anything about it. Probably because...
Sigh. Never mind.
The sick feeling was back and she took a deep breath before making her way to what was the Gryffindor table. It was nothing like the Great Hall, but she had to admit whoever did that had done a good job. She patted Maeve on the shoulder as she passed the girl to take a seat nearer Lucas until his sister showed up. |
