"Stupid water." she said as she took out her frustration on a chair. "This is just so stupid." She cried. "Vanessa I can't do this." she cried as she clung to the Prefect.
"NuH-uh." Melanie argued, oh-so-maturely, poking her tongue out as Sarah argued with her.
"They. Can. Not." she debated, crossing her arms over her chest.
The one plus about this argument was that at least it was keeping her mind off the water a bit-
"AHHH!" Melanie squealed loudly as the Sarah girl knocked her into the water. Of course, Melanie thought this had been on purpose...and she'd still had her tongue out.
Melanie plunged into the dirty lake water, receiving a mouthful of the foul tasting liquid, she came back out from underneath the stuff, shivering continuously, as she spit the water out.
"EWWW." Melanie wiping off her mouth and trying to stand up again.
"Just because you disagreed with me doesn't mean you had to go and dunk me in the water." Melanie said sadly, frowning as she squeezed the water out of her hair, tromping her way back over to the prefect, this time just standing by her side, soaked and shivering.

"Oh...my shoes." She pouted a little. Great. "Acck!" Vanessa neardly fell over as she two girls clinged too her. No! She couldn't fall over. She didnt want to get that wet! She cringed as the girls clung to her. oh they really were scared. And Vannie still needed to make sure that all the other hufflepuffs got out.
Oh. Where are Dominic Denton when she needed him.
"Girls. You have to do it. This water is probably going to rise more. And you need to get out. I know that it's scary, but the quicker you get out the less scary it will be." Vanessa nodded, hoping that the girls wound stop clinging to her.
"It's not that far...and you do it all the while." She smiled, glancing back at Lyra, surely her fellow pink lady. "Lyra...a little help?" Melanie blinked as Vannie said they had to as in like Mandatory as in like...
Gulp.
She was gonna
DIIIIE if she didn't.
She also stated the water was going to rise more, which was absolutely terrifying the little second year before her. It was already high enough for her liking...and it wasn't even that high.
But as Sarah began to make her way toward the door, Melanie took a deep breath deciding that if that girl could do it so could she but just then...
Then Melanie watch as two cats went by in the water, splashing the filthy water up into her face as they thrashed their paws about, trying to stay above the current. She immediately recognized the first as Momo, her own cat, picking him up and letting him lean against her shoulder. The second cat was smaller and less furry and-
LOLCAT! Jake's kitty! Melanie bit her lip as she picked up the other cat, using her other hand, the big threatening Momo hissing down at it as he dug his claws into her shoulder, Lolcat, doing the same, without the hissing part of course.
"Ouch." the girl whispered to herself, her grip tightening on both cats so they didn't try to jump away into the water, not that that seemed so likely of an event....but hey anything could happen.
Oh no. Wait. Jake had TWO pets. Not just Lolcat...he also happened to own...
A baby tarantula.
A baby tarantula named Charlie, who couldn't swim. Melanie, flipping out at this point walked slowly back over to Vanessa, cats still clinging to her robes which slowed her down.
"Vanessa!" she said, to earn her attention again.
"I have to save Charlie!" she informed her, a concerned expression on her face. Sure, she despised the little creature, like all spiders, but she couldn't help but imagine the expression on Jaker's face as he realized his baby tarantula had drowned.
"He's in the boys dorm. I don't think Jake's in there..." Melanie told her, forgetting all plan of escaping once again.
And than a thought struck her...Vanessa couldn't get the baby tarantula but she knew someone who could.
"Dominiiiiiic." she yelled, looking anxiously around the flooded common room, on the verge of tears, for the male prefect. Or any guy in fact that would be willing retrieve the baby tarantula from the boy's dorm... Poor little Charlie.
Ah and while she was worrying about a baby tarantula to her disapproval Sarah happened to still be worrying about her hair.
Hmpf. People these days.
