People could lash out when they were afraid. Creatures did it, too. And so Cece wasn’t TOO shocked when the muggles took up branches and tried to defend themselves. She stumbled backwards and away from them, wand still trained. They were the monsters in this situation, she’d realized. It’s what the muggles must’ve thought. It broke Cece’s heart. And then the tree was fighting back, too, and spells were being cast at the muggles...This was just going from bad to worse and everyone had different ideas on how to handle it and Cece’s honestly felt like just turning on the spot and abandoning ship. She didn’t want to be responsible for these lives. She was only fifteen. ...Her Gryffindor had apparently gotten lost somewhere deep inside today. Luckily Phoebe still had hers.
”I can’t do that spell. And I don’t know that we should try. What if we mess it up?” Maybe they should’ve just stunned them. Then they wouldn’t be experiencing this panic and the students would have time to decide what to do. If the ropes didn’t work, Cece was going to resort to that. She would.
