Marcus was doing his best to keep hold of the elves but the water was so strong and he kept going under the water and unfortunately so did Argyle, Beezley and Tinka. He could feel his hair being ripped out at the roots but those elves were strong little buggers and they held on tightly.

He could see some students up ahead and he wanted to yell out for them to get out of the corridor but more water filled his mouth as he went under and once he could surface again, he spluttered and coughed. If this water was contaminated as well, he would personally hex Valon Kazimeriz himself.

As he got swept away with the water, he spotted a small girl trying to cast a spell and he tried once again to yell at her to get out of the corridor but it was too late. Marcus collided with the little Slytherin and she got dragged in as well. He groaned loudly and moved Tinka to his right hand while he grabbed the young girl with his left, trying his best to hold her up as well.

Okay he had always worked out and kept himself in shape but even he could not hold three house elves and one twelve year old girl. He was finding it difficult to breathe and he had a severe stitch in his side. He then heard another voice telling him to grab the bench. With what? he wanted to scream back but just did not have the energy for it.

The water was simply moving to fast and hard for him to do much at all and he tried lifting Tinka up in arms hoping that she would grab hold of the bench but all that happened was they crashed into the bench the girl was holding.

Ouch!

That was going to bruise.

Marcus looked behind him to see that the girl had fallen into the water also. Geez, he was supposed to be saving them not trying to drown them, he sure hoped that she could swim because he was out of hands right now. He turned back to see another student and...

What. Was. He. Doing?

Oh he'd have to be a Gryffindor!

"Get out of the water now!" He finally managed to yell before swallowing more of the filthy water. How was he going to grab a rope when his hands were already full. The weight of the elves and the young girl were really starting to weigh him down.

Josh could have his guitar.

Andrew could have his money, he would no doubt love that.

His parents can have the houses and whatever else was left over.

Hogwarts could have his books and DADA objects.

Oh bugger that's right he had never gotten around to making a will had he? Didn't legends live on forever? In his mind they did!!
