Everything had turned to chaos so fast that Devin hadn’t even noticed that he had become separated from his remaining group mates. Why had no one responded to his red sparks? Where were all the adults? Actually, where was anyone? Especially after what he had just witnessed with Lia he was well aware of the dangers of wandering a dragon reserve alone. At least he still had his wand which in this situation would be his greatest asset. There were limitations to the usefulness of his wand, however, as he had only one and a half years of magical training under his belt so his arsenal of mastered spells was quite small and his spells were relatively weak. On the plus side, he wasn’t currently being tortured by The Hoods or eaten by a dragon and there was still a chance he could find Dad and go home. Sure, he would be going home with just the robes on his back but it would be better than going back to Rosier’s reign of terror. Besides, there were very few things he would be losing that couldn’t be sorted by Mum or with a quick shopping trip. The things that couldn’t be replaced were Babs and his friends. Not that he actually had his owl with him anyway. So just the friends really, but it would be worth giving up the chance to be with his friends if it meant he could be with his family. ”Hello? Dad? Anyone?” He had gotten turned around enough that he wasn’t even entirely sure how to get back to the headquarters of the reserve. After his previous red sparks distress signal had gone unnoticed, he wasn’t feeling particularly optimistic about trying it again. So, the only logical thing to do right now was sit here and wait until someone found him. If he was lucky that someone would be Dad or another reserve worker who could take him to Dad. If he was unlucky it would be one of The Hoods and he would probably be dragged back to Hogwarts and maybe punished for not doing anything to upset the dragons. If he was extremely unlucky, it would be one of the dragons looking for a meal and no one would ever know what happened to him. Even the second option was probably preferable to the third. Only marginally though because there was still a good chance that Rosier and The Hoods would kill them all anyway. He was just going to wait here in case his last known location would be where people started searching for him.
