A path is not simply for walking, its purpose lies in moving forward and improving oneself.
Minjae felt a nudge against his arm and looked to his left to see Noah standing next to him. He wished that it would make him feel safer but it did not. He gave a small smile back before nodding at Aboli as well, completely missing that she was holding his friend’s hand.
Minjae registered only half of his *disappointment and defiance* speech which was getting old in his opinion . As long as they had any spark left, they would continue to defy. However when Rosier mentioned that some of them had tried to alert about the happenings in the castle , his breath hitched.
He had told Ministry employee Carson about what was happening at the school during the field trip and his eyes slightly widened. Was the former Hufflepuff OK?! Had he gotten him in to danger in an attempt of freedom?!
Upon hearing his name at the end of the list, Minjae wondered if he was added because he had tried to play hero or because his family was tainted. Perhaps the reason was both of them…
The movement of the Neo Alliance moving forward took him out of his thoughts and his first instinct was to escape. Run away. NOW. But he couldn’t move. His body was frozen on the spot in fear and before he knew it he felt hands taking a firm hold of him.
Out of instinct, the seventeen year old flinched and he wanted to struggle against the grip but knew that it would be a futile thing to do. He did however move his head to the side to glare at whoever had gotten hold of him until Rosier called for Williamson to come forward. He snapped his head back to the front to see what was happening. Was he about to be tortured because of them?! Or worse, killed?!
