Oh good, help. Mamie’s incantation had been clear and correct, so the fifth year hoped that the younger girl’s spell proved helpful. This wasn’t exactly an easy area to cover. At least not with all of them crowded around together. Maybe if they spread ou—Cecelia blinked. She wasn’t entirely sure why Ashley was trying to warn off the muggles, especially when they were so close to danger, but she figured her heart was in the right place. ”Depends on where they take a hit. Broken bones are likely, but if one gets hit in the head or tossed...” She winced. It wouldn’t be pretty, that was all.
She was turning her attention back to the muggles, who for a moment seemed to remember what they were meant to be doing, but then went right back to studying the tree. Nooo. No. No. ”Hi. Look. Forget the tree. You need to go to the exit.” She pointed towards the safest path she could think of. Anything to get them away from here. ”Ashley, Mamie, we need to spread out and try again.” They could do this, right? Cece moved away from the other girls, around to the opposite side of the tree. ”Repello Muggletum.”
Wait, what? Cece blinked, turning to face Phoebe, her eyes wide and filled with worry. ”W-what? But why?” Her heart dropped right down to her stomach. ”Phoebe...” She hugged her friend, wishing she hadn’t had to see that. Feeling lucky that she’d been the one to leave the group first. Feeling worried about her friends. Angry at their monster of a headmaster. Sad.
So so sad for the muggle who died. ”What do we do?”
