Jonathan looked puzzled for a moment. He saw her closed hr eyes and was confident enough that it's right. But Jonathan was not in favor with arguing with this one. In fact half of him trusts Kurumi with this.
"Right it is" he nodded to her.
Jonathan tried to catch up with Kurumi as she lead the way. Then along the way, Jonathan heard a voice. OH. So that's why she picked right. Did she hear it too? A voice?
Jonathan has no clue to who this person were though but as the reached to where he was Kurumi uttered out his name. Simon??? The Gryffindor captain right? Jonathan barely knew any Gryffindors. But he has heard of him. After all he plays quidditch and is the captain of the team. "Simon?" he whispered.
But props to Kurumi though. She's definitely a Gryffindor indeed. Jonathan is just happy that they got there before anybody else gets hurt. The maze was quite dark and dummies keeps on popping out of nowhere.
Speaking of which, another one came attacking from behind Kurumi. With his wand ready, he flicked "Confringo" he aimed at the dummy approaching.
He looked around. "Is anybody alright?" he asked.

The former Gryffindor thinking he probably should have practiced more with his fellow students rather then just watched. The young man quickly turned in place, wand still raised as he heard movement behind him only to come face to face with Kurumi just as she was saying his name with a slight studder as if uncertain it was him.
"Oh...hey Kurumi," he greeted lowering his wand to his side letting out a breath he hadn't been aware he was holding. "Fancy meeting you here," he added with a smile glad to see her, just then registering the boy behind her. His face turned into a frown as he spotted another dummy appear behind his friend, his wand raising again to act but the unfamiliar Slytherin responded faster.
"I think so..." Simon answered lowering his arm again not wanting to appear threatening. "Though I lost Selina along the way."

It was one thing to be brave in public, which Selina was very good at, but to be brave with no one watching was a near impossible task. Because being brave on your own entails that you are doing what you do from some deep and innate sense you have. Selina didn't think, at least not at this moment, that she had it in her to be brave. With every new dummy she could feel some impending doom lulling over her head. What else could possible happen in this place? More than just dummys had t o be here.
But she walked on because if she stopped then she would be dead in the water. Her only way out was, in fact, to keep walking in the face of her impending doom. And this whole maze had been her whole stupid idea. Although with Simon beside her at the time it did not seem so scary.
She took another step forward and a dummy came up from the ground directly in front of her knocking her off of her feet. Her back slammed hard into the ground and she felt all of the air leave her lungs. She gasped for a few moments until she stood up. When she stood up she was still quite dazed and aimed for the dummy, "Stupefy!" She missed.
Her spell continued on past the dummy and hit a pellet creating something to spray Selina, "AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!"
Her scream was blood curtailing... and she felt icky.
Kurumi glanced over her shoulder to see a very confused Jonathan. "
Simon graduated last term. He was the Quidditch Captain and...well, my big brother lion." It had been him and Patroclus last year, the big brother lions that she could go and talk to whenever she needed something. And she sure could have used the both of them for boy advice - if she had the guts to bring it up to them in the first place. Instead, she kept all the emotions locked away deep inside and tried to deal with it all by herself. Patroclus had been gone by the time everything with Treyen had happened, but Simon had been there. She really should have talked to him.
Maybe this was a sign?
Kurumi didn't even notice Jonathan defeated a few more dummies for all her focus was on the forever a lion boy that stood in front of her.
"
Fancy meeting you here?" she repeated folding her arms across her chest. Not exactly the greeting she had been expecting, but it did bring a smile to her face. She fidgeting awkwardly. "
Hi."
She was just about to run over to him for a hug, but she was startled by a scream. That voice, she knew whose voice that was.
"
SELINA?! SELINA WHERE ARE YOU?!"
This was going to be like some demented version of hide-and-go-seek.
