He was thinking of Lux, of Cinna, of Rorie and even his mother and how idly he'd sat by while all of them had gone through some great injury. No more, Damien would stand and he'd help fight off the horde. It was time to stop being a cowardly lion.

LOOK! It was that Gryffindor kid who'd gone into the girls bathroom and started all this mess!

Ok, Caleb knew he hadn't actually DONE anything to start all this. But he had been the reason that Caleb had been in the girls bathroom in the first place and heard the screaming coming out of the Chamber that had been haunting his dreams for weeks. It was good to see him like...ALIVE and all, but still, he had no one to blame by himself for his injuries! If Caleb had been a Hufflepuff or something maybe he'd have felt sorry for the kid, but nah. He had no time for pity.

"Oi! You think you should be going into the battle like that?" he asked the boy, eyebrow raised as he looked at his leg. "We already have students missing, we don't need you going missing too because you can't run away. No offense," he added, not wanting to offend the kid, but like...let's be real here.

She pushed through the discomfort and the crowds of people to find a particular boy in particular. If she felt like this, she could only imagine how Damien felt.

Ah, and she found him, right as he volunteered his crippled self to try and save some people. "No, you don't," she urged as she walked up behind him, her good arm looping into his for support. "You'll get yourself killed." He couldn't RUN, let alone walk very far. Dumb Gryffindor.

Wait, was that Benzi? ALSO signing up to get himself killed?

BUT WAIT! There was Evie! He hadn't run into his Ravvie friend since the incident in the bathroom and was relieved that she, too, was alive. Maybe there was hope for Lux and Cinna! And Noel and Truebridge! Although it might not seem like he cared, Caleb REALLY did - he didn't want anyone dying! IT WAS NOT OK.

"Evie! You're alive!" he exclaimed, running to his friend and giving her a BIG OL BEAR HUG in greeting. "I thought you were DEAD after you went into the Chamber! I was doing patrols and saw you go in, but by the time I got there, you were gone...you too," he added, looking at Gryffindor boy. But he didn't know him so he wasn't as excited, obviously.

And then Caleb took in her appearance. Yikes. She looked like she was gonna pass out...

"Are you ok?" he asked. Stupid question. OBVIOUSLY she wasn't...

Oh Merlin, how on Earth had all this happened?! That was all Addison could think as she burst into the Great Hall. And more importantly...how was Addi the ONLY one here right now?! Had the rest of the department not made it?! Where was Harmony? Daphne? Mordred? Anyone??

SHE WAS JUST A RECEPTIONIST! SHE COULDN'T DO THIS ALL ALONE!

The team had been in Hogsmeade, looking for signs of wayward acromantulas, when they'd heard the news. When Harmony's patronus first arrived, telling them that acromantulas had attacked the school and taken not only some students, but the headmistress as well, Addi hadn't really been thinking when she signed up to go. She hadn't been scared or doubtful or anything...and somehow, without any defensive training outside of her school classes, she had been able to make it through the fray and break through to the castle. Once they all got to the Great Hall, they were supposed to be meeting up to take on the spiders once and for all...and yet it was just her. A young woman with only a few months of job experience who wasn't even 20 years old yet.

Now, all that fear was crashing down on her. She was afraid - not only for her safety and for all the kids in front of her - but also for her team, who were all still out there, apparently.

Ok, breathe Longbottom. You just survived a horde of giant spiders. You can do this! Just start doing SOMETHING. Anything!

So she did the only thing she could think of as the adrenaline pumped through her veins. "Who is in charge here? Department of Magical Creatures, reporting for duty!" she shouted. She knew that Truebridge had gone missing, which was TERRIFYING, but someone had to have taken the reigns in her absence...
