This is real and it's dangerous out there and I need you to acknowledge that before you make your choice." At the age of fifteen and a half, Violet didn't know if she counted as older or not. But missing that year of school--she was only in third year, and only knew third year spells for the most part. She didn't realistically think she was up for a battle with hardened, adult wizards yet. Then she heard a familiar voice nearby.

Claudine. Actually, that didn't sound like a bad idea, either. Slytherins were a suspicious bunch for the most part, and they might not be willing to trust a professor at this point, after the faculty had seemed to be going along with the Neo-Alliance all year. Having a student or two along might give the snakes more confidence. And there was always the possibility that not all of the students left in the common rooms were on their side--Recard should have backup in case some of the Neo-Alliance supporters decided to make a stand against her.
Violet wasn't up to fighting adults, but she had no hesitation in fighting her fellow students, if things came to that. So she hung back from the rest of the students and waited to see what Recard and Claudine would do.
