Violet was shocked when she heard her name called out at the head of the list. What in Merlin had she done? Granted, she was not a fan of the Neo-Alliance, but she hadn't gone out of her way to annoy them, and she certainly hadn't tried to talk to anyone during their field trip (not that she wouldn't have if she thought she could manage it). She thought she had been successful in doing her schoolwork and trying to avoid trouble, but apparently that was not enough. Unless they could read her mind! But probably it was just that these people were totally devoid of rationality, and there was no predicting what would annoy them.

As one of the hooded goons grabbed her arm, she found herself foolishly thinking that she wished she'd brought more clothes with her. At least she'd been wise enough to burn her diary at the start of term, instead of trying to hide it in her dorm--now that would have been enough to get her in real trouble!

Violet wanted to protest the unreasonableness of this, but figured there was no point in engaging these people in any sort of reasonable conversation. She was very, very frightened, but also relieved, in a way. It was getting to be a strain pretending to go along with these people. At least now she needn't bother trying to placate them so much. She hoped the rumors about her formidable grandfather having dabbled in the Dark Arts in his youth were true, and that he would come after these people with a vengeance some day.



OOC: So, do we still go to classes now, or what?
