The corners of LouAnn's mouth tugged up into a little smile. Mr. Masterson was willing to simply step aside just so she could justify her nightmares by assisting with some fight out in the corridor? Wow, she really should feel bad for not telling him the complete and total truth. Maybe one day she could sit down and tell the complete story. You know, when she was forty-six-years-old or something like that. "It's okay. I won't go too far," she promised.

It could go very badly. "Please."
Uh oh. It certainly didn't appear as if Professor Kazimeriz was as accepting of her idea as Mr. Masterson was. LouAnn stopped abruptly and just watched what little progress had been made. No matter what she did at this point, Professor Kazimeriz would simply just continue to do as he'd planned. It seemed sort of pointless to protest any longer. She could only hope that Tibi, Torin, and Cam would have some brilliant idea just waiting to be implemented on the other side of that door.
LouAnn turned to the Slytherin girls, who were suggested that a wand be used for a surprise attack. "That's a good idea, but what if the students are locked in a nasty duel and the innocent ends up getting hit...with the spell, I mean," she said. She hoped, at this point, that Professor Kazimeriz would just continue on and open the door as he'd planned. Surely Copernicus wouldn't wait on their mission to get underway much longer.
