 Constant Vigilance! O_O AWAKE!
Mamie clapped her hand over her mouth to suppress her terrified squeal as the scary fake headmaster grabbed her good friend Ashley by the hair. And threatened to kill her if they didn't answer the question?!? She took a few deep breaths to steady herself, but it didn't seem to work. But she had to answer for her friend. She was absolutely not going to cry in this class. She was twelve years old. Yes, she would keep telling herself that.
After a few more deep breaths... and minimal physical shaking... she raised her hand. "Sir..." she said, taking another deep breath to pretend she was brave. "Why...why not just make more wizards. Then the Mu-Muggles outnumbering us...they wouldn't be a threat." If the problem was that Muggles outnumbered wizards...they just needed a bigger population of wizards. Problem solved. Nobody murdered.
Answer given, she tried to shrink back into the crowd. |
