"Gryffindors," Anastasia found herself muttering under their breath, "just don't know what's good for them." Especially that Alexa girl. When the door closed at last behind the final child, Annie rose from her seat and approached the ones closer to Lafay's desk, though she did not sit just yet.
So, what was their reason for being here? Annie looked behind her toward Sebastian and signaled for him to speak up with her eyes. "We're here to see you about your so-called student leaders, Professor," she raised an eyebrow, "and their lack of leadership on the train and at Hogsmeade station."
In other words, call them in.
Hecate's eyes flashed with anger. "
My so-called student leaders?" She repeated and listened.
Lack of leadership... hmmm...
The headmistress was called in for this?!

Although that humour disappeared the moment the Potions mistress yelled and Seb could feel himself flinching and was really glad that he wasn't on the other end of that. She was one scary woman. He watched as the three girls left the office, giving the Gryffindor a small wave back and he couldn't help smiling. As far as he was concerned, she could do no wrong.
When the Headmistress rose out of her chair, Seb quickly followed suit and followed her over to the other chairs that were directly in front of Lafay. He caught Anastasia's look and was about to open his mouth when she went ahead and spoke herself.
Oh dear! Well that was rather bluntly put. This was not going to go well. He could sense it already. "You are probably aware Professor Lafay, about the incident with the Hogwarts Express and that the students had to take a portkey to Hogsmeade Station." Well if she didn't then she just the abbreviated version. "Anyway quite a few students managed to get injured during the transition. I had asked the Prefects if they could please assist those students that were hurt." He paused because somehow he knew that this part was going to go down like a bag of dragon dung.
"Your two Prefects didn't stop to help they proceeded straight to the carriages. Your Captain would have done the same but was called out by a Ravenclaw girl. He did help in the end but only because he was told to. So that's why I will be taking points from these students."
There. That wasn't so bad.
Hecate turned to the man who was sitting beside the headmistress.
They WHAT?!? But something else was bothering her as well...
"
And you have not done so already?" she said with a sarcastic tone. "
What, pray tell, are you waiting for? My permission?" she spoke very calmly and with a smile on her face. "
Oh, I doubt you were coming here for that, I mean, once you've already gone over my head and directly to our Headmistress. I assume it's because you want them to tell you why they didn't help. Well, let's bring them in here and ask." She pointed her wand to the door and with the force of a small explosion, her Giant Praying Mantis patronus left to search for her
so-called leaders.
"
Tea?" She offered. "
So. Was the train on fire? I thought it had just stopped."
