Issy let go of the boys, pulling back with her nose lift into the air. Here she was, dragging them to safety, and they'd squirmed and wriggled the whole way, complaining and acting so buttheaded. She'd saved Cam from getting eaten by the werewolf and she'd been the one that Cyrus had run to, but the second she actually saved them, they started to act like stubborn, buttheaded brats? Hmph! No wonder Samson had been such a jerk when they were younger. Were all young boys bratty like this?
Her head was beginning to hurt.
"My fingers aren't claw-like," snipped Issy haughtily. "Shall I go and apologize now for saving your sorry bum from becoming a werewolf manburger? We had to get out of there before the Professors took drastic measures, so I dragged you out."
She chose not to let him know that the reason her grip was so tight was because she'd been terrified. It was true; if she was not haunted by nightmares in the next two weeks, she'd be too alarmed. The snapping jaws and the blood on the teeth and the poor Headmaster, just laying there. Another tremble took her body and she bit down on her lower lip. Her skin was still cool and her heart hadn't stopped pounding, probably due to climbing so many stairs so quickly.
"A simple thank you would have sufficed," she carried on. "We were shooed out quickly - there was no way I was going to walk DOWN to the basement and dungeon just to drop you two off only to backtrack. What if the werewolf had escaped, huh? Unlike you, I was NOT going to become a manburger."
NUH UH.
Cam was talking to her stomach again.
And wailing about kidnapping. Issy sighed heavily with exasperation before turning around to the older boy.
"Melissa isn't listening," she stressed, taking a deep breath and closing her eyes. "And I'm NOT kidnapping you, I was only trying to keep you guys safe but that's apparently a bit of a crime right here so next time either of you are in danger, I'll just leave you to be killed and mauled or even worse! You can become a monster, just like Professor Lupa!"
Lowering her voice and turning from the boy, Issy spotted Willow and blinked her green eyes innocently.
"Oh. Hi, Willow," she greeted her friend sheepishly, eying her towel. "You know... the castle isn't flooded anymore... You don't need a towel." Her head tipped to the side and she pushed a lock of hair behind her ear, before addressing her friend's pointed questions, and she sighed again.
"I knoooooowwww where they live," she said, feeling as though she'd repeated this a multitude of times already. "But... I was only trying to keep them safe and the werewolf and I didn't want to and I was really, really scared."
The last part of this statement came out in a tiny, squeaky voice. |
