As she continued to blink, the tears that had filled her eyes were now strolling down her cheek. Helios always seemed like a good boy; it was a shame she didn't get to know him.

She kept her eyes away from the body, because she did NOT want to look at a dead person. It was hard enough being just being there. Hearing Xander's voice and being pulled closer to him, instead of saying anything at the exact moment, she just placed her head on his shoulder as more tears appeared. "He's - he's...dead," she stated the obvious after being quiet for a bit; after saying that, she decided it was best to gather all her thoughts before she spoke, again, so next time she wouldn't say something that was already known.

Sigh. This was the second Hufflepuff she knew that was killed (and, no, she didn't know about Abbey). The thought of the other Hufflepuff was swept from her thoughts when another girl came in and told them to go find someone. "I...I...I sent a patr-patronus to Kazi," she replied through her tears. Who was this girl? She had no idea, but she did look familiar. Maybe she knew her from class or something.
