Watching her sit, he followed her with his eyes, levelly. "You do not get to decide when to go. You are able to go only when you have been dismissed."




"Thank you," he said turning to the eldest once more. "I wish that, perhaps, you had come to get someone from the staff table for assistance before it got out of hand, but somethings these things happen quickly."

He nodded at her, before, then, turning to hear another account of the events.




The sight of the tears welling in the young student's eyes softened Preston and he knelt down once again. "Sometimes," he began softly, "the best way to help is to go and get someone else. Does that make sense?" Trying to catch her eye, he looked up at her, as his kneeling had put him below eyelevel.

"Thank you for telling me what happened, too. You made a mistake, but it's not a horrible one. Ok?"




Standing, Preston turned to the Prefect, whose story seemed to lack detail... which was to be expected if he witnessed it from another table. "Thank you for intervening, Mister Leone. I do think I can manage, if you'd like to return to your classmates."



But then Miss Mayberry chimed in again. "ENOUGH!!" Preston bellowed as he swung around.

"Your attitude leaves much to be desired, Miss Mayberry, and I will not have it. It would have been far easier for you to have cooperated. Instead, you chose to first accuse, and then later to share an incomplete story that made yourself look completely innocent. And you have continued to yell and carry on. You will sit there and be quiet until I am ready to deal with you. Understood?"

Professor Kingsley loomed over her, eyes narrowed. He was hungry, for Merlin's sake, and in addition to being rude, this child was prolonging this encounter a great deal.




"Your honesty that your action was intentional is appreciated, though it was extremely poor judgment that will not go unpunished. In the future, if you are having difficulty with a student, bring it to one of the professors or to your prefects."

He was about to address them all when she continued, rather shrilly. "That is enough," he interjected. "It is not for you to dole out reprimands."

Clasping his hands behind his back, his expression was grim. "Miss Althiem and Miss Carter. It would have been much better if you had called this situation to someones attention before it got so out of hand. I hope you will exercise better judgment in the future."

He moved to consider the other two girls. "Miss Mayberry. Miss Hughes. Five points, each, will be taken for the mess and the disruption. Not only have you disrupted the feast for a number of people, the wanton waste of food is also inappropriate."

He paused. "Miss Hughes, you will see me in my office first thing tomorrow to further discuss this incident and how you can better respond in the future. And as for you, Miss Mayberry, your repeated insolence and disrespect has earned you a detention. You will report following the feast. No arguments."

Setting his jaw, he stood in front of them all. "You will all remain at the feast until dismissed by the Headmaster. I will take care of the fur and the mess, so there will be no need to leave early. I would also recommend that you separate yourselves."

Preston unholstered his wand, eying all the girls involved. "Let me take care of that fur, first," he said, giving his wand a deliberate point in the direction of the girl. It wouldn't do to have a furry girl at the feast! Satisfied with the spellwork, he turned to the mess on the table, and the mess on the people. With a few quick swishes, he had siphoned up the spilled juice and vanished the toppled food.

"Now get out of my site before I change my mind."


The little girl smiled sadly, wiped the tears and nodded vigorously at the Professor. "It does, sir." She murmured.

Louisa watched as Carin and Enya's argument started. Why wouldn't they just stop it for a while till the teacher goes away at least! That'd put them in a bigger trouble by acting like that. Till Enya shouted and Carin yelled back, Louisa gasped and her hands snapped to her mouth. Now that was rude. She shook her head and whispered, "No Enya no!" But not to anyone's earshot.

With one loud clap of his hands, everyone went silent at once. Oh dear punishment time! She looked at the floor praying deep inside not to get detention. She didn't know what a magical detention would be. What if he made her spend the night with freaky creatures?
Shiver.

Luckily, the professor was understanding and didn't put Louisa to punishment. Her mouth widened as she heard him telling her & Skye what to do next time this thing happens. She danced happily... in her mind of course. No detention! No sacking! No nothing! Yay! She almost pounced up and down!

But, Enya and Carin's attitudes weren't acceptable... obviously. Taking points from them as well as meeting him at his office. Ouch! Louisa went quiet glancing at the girls. She was sorry for Enya. Her behavior wasn't approved of, but Louisa felt sorry for her weirdly enough. She wanted to comfort her but postponed it. Not when the professor was around anyways.

Separate ourselves? Did that mean that she couldn't sit with Enya anymore? Enya probably wouldn't talk to her just now anyways. Louisa lowered her head, nodded sadly and turned her back on them going away to another table. She needed a distraction... and quickly!

What about Enya? Louisa can't just leave her like this on her first day. Hmm..
...
Hide! Louisa could hide while the professor returns to his place. Shifty smile. Nice! Louisa wanted to hide since the start anyways. Heehee.

She walked away to another table and kept the scene within her eye sight waiting for the right moment to come
