She quickly turned away from the prefect in an effort to get her mind away from certain type thoughts. Thoughts she was still sort of angry at herself for having. Thoughts she knew her father would literally seethe in anger over. Looking toward the hatch Salamander and Simon had gone down, she nodded her head. "Yeah, ...some time," she remarked. Obviously not now. "Just owl me when you're ready."

UGH!!!

That had so made her sound like she'd be sitting around just waiting to hear from him. She had to get a hold of herself! "Or better yet, just be ready. I'll owl you," she said.

Again, she nodded when he told her to call for help if she got into trouble down that hatch. Come to think of it, though, she might just call for help even if she didn't... "UGH!" she said aloud this time. She hadn't meant to, though. She blushed and turned away, distracting herself by looking out at Kurumi Hollingberry on the banks of the water. Then she felt his arm around her. Her eyes sort of widened a little as she turned back around--to see his arms around another girl as well...

OOC: Continued under Nina's quote and again under Dot's quote.



She eyed this other girl, wanting to glare at her but holding back for now. Good to meet you?! Sierra should probably return the line, but she just wasn't in the mood to attempt friendliness. She eyed Treyen again, noticing how friendly he seemed to be toward this other girl. With an inward sigh, she looked at Ellie and said, "It's...good to...meet you..., too." There. That hadn't been too hard. She would not be calling the girl's name if she got into trouble, though...



Sierra jerked her head toward Lola. Why in the name of all things good and magical was this loud, obnoxious, annoying excuse for a person clapping?! ...oh. Right. Sierra had willingly been nice to her in an attempt to gain a loyal dog. Seemed like it had worked, only, Sierra would now have to deal with all the ridiculousness that came along with being anywhere in the vicinity of Lola Jones.

Then suddenly, Lola's hand was clasped around hers, causing Sierra to sort of stiffen in horror. Where were they going?! Sierra was going to lead--she had to! Otherwise, she'd have to suffer through the humiliation of being lead around the ship by Loooooola Jones. She wouldn't have it! None of it! "Down there!" she suddenly said, the hatch seeming to be the closest place to her. She had just enough time to turn and look toward Treyen, hoping he was coming along, before she disappeared into the depths.



The last thing see saw was the blinding flash of Michael White's blasted camera as she went down the hatch.
