Minjae stared right back at the Headmaster's pointed look, doing his best not to lower his eyes as he talked. He had always respected the man but right now he just seemed like a completely different person. Had they broken him that much? OR, a swift thought ran through his mind and it sounded ridiculous but it could be possible. The Headmaster was not the Headmaster. Maybe this was some weirdo who polyjuiced themselves? he refused to believe that Trent would abuse his power like that. "sorry, sir" he said before he got back to hunting down Nemesis.

When he was close to the Slytherin, Minjae followed his movement to the side and in the second that Nem had raised his wand, Minjae did so himself to protect himself but he was too late.

He had dealt with flash flares in many video games but he had never been blinded by it in real life. He didn't know how big the range of the flare was but judging by how the students around him reacted it had to be far. If the rest were having trouble with the light, it was ten times worse for him as he got the full blast.

Minjae had to let go of his bag inside of his pocket to use his arms to shield his eyes from the bright light and once it got darker he opened his eyes again. Dark spots danced before his eyes and he blinked a few times while trying to find the Slytherin. Oh bloody hell, where had he gone of to?! Right? left?? up? no...

......He wasn't behind him right?!

Still with spots in his vision and unable to see very well, Minjae still spun around with his wand at the ready in the hope that his guess was correct.
