You didn't approach creatures with LOUD voices. A second glance at him confirmed he was from Hogwarts; he took Care of Magical Creatures and should have known this. What's more he was a Gryffindor, one of hers, Zander wasn't it?

Lex put a finger to her lip, indicating that he was going to have to be a lot quieter than he was currently being. Especially after his loud noises scared the thing further away. Sigh.

She watched him walk closer, her eyes flickering occasionally to the unicorn hoping it wouldn't go anywhere. "There aren't. This is the first I've seen." She replied in a low voice, trying not to startle it further. "Listen, you're gonna have to keep it down and move reeeaaaalllyyyy slow, okay?" He didn't have to listen to her but she was prepared to shoot him with a body binding curse otherwise. Ahem.

And again she took slow, cautious steps toward the creature, giving a nod for Zander to do the same. If they could get it to come back with them then Thompson could check to make sure it wasn't suffering from dementor shock like the ones a few years ago WERE.

Zander gave Lex a nod and an apologetic look. Then he turned back to the unicorn and this time, didn't say a word. Because he could be cautious and careful toooo.

Zander listened carefully as the prefect spoke, so as to not miss any further instructions and stuff. See careful! "Okay, promise," he whispered quietly. He'd be as quiet as a mouse. Pinky swear. So they don't normally come down here. "Does that mean there's something wrong with it?" he asked again in a soft whisper. Should they try to take it back to Hogwarts with them?! Did someone scare it out of the forrest? What in Merlin's name is going on!

Zander returned Lex's nod with one of understanding. Okay, slow and careful. He cautiously took a small step forever being as quiet as he could. Then he paused to make sure they unicorn wouldn't run away. Right, totally careful. Were all Hogsmeade trips like this!?
