Oh gosh. He knew that voice. Turning slightly, Ed saw Nell way too close to this thing for comfort and yelped at her. "Behind you, Nell!" Seriously, what was it with girls and getting into situations?! Especially girls who meant a lot to him! UGH. He glanced at Minnie who'd explained about a professor being taken and swallowed. Okay, so this thing ate people. At least if anyone was taken this time, it was likely to be him. He didn't want his girlfriend or sister to be taken.

He moved back toward Sutton and found that something was preventing him from actually getting close to her. Ed turned to see her, but ran his hand through his hair frustratedly as she ran off again. "SUTTON ROSE JOSEPHINE PIATEK, YOU GET BACK HERE NOW." Yep, she'd got the FULL name treatment. Instinctively, he chased her and pulled out his own wand to protect her stupid hide. Nell could handle herself, and Ed had no doubts about it, Sutton on the other hand was still young and new to magic.
