Oichi was a bit taken aback by the professors last statement. Sure they were in a hurry but the her house also just lost most of their work due to some practical joker. They were not totally lost but they could certainly use the help considering how many people in her house just gave up after the awful magic trick.

She spoke up and said, "Professor, us Gryffindors could use some help, not because we don't know what we are doing but because there is so little time left and most of our work vanished thanks to some practical joker and I don't think we'll finish in time without some help.

With that said Oichi continued to gather rocks and do her best to make a new fire ring with her fellow Gryffindors but the rocks were heavy making the work slow as molasses and they still needed to add the gathered sticks into the rock circle once it was done. Oichi sure was glad she asked for some help.
