Her eyes were most likely turning silver and she had a pretty good feeling that silver streaks were running through her hair. She had to get herself under control before anyone noticed. But that was inpossible at the moment it seemed.
Thoughts were racing around in her head at top speed. What should she do? What could she do? She would have to see him in class, but he was also expecting her to produce a broom that she didn't have with her. She made a decision she took a deep breath and before she could change her mind she stood up.
Without looking at those she had been talking to she said, "I'll be right back." With that she walked up to the Staff table.

She knew asking sounded really nosy,but this was her friends..old and new..so she wanted every detail.
Sarah watched as Lasca's hair and eyes changed colour as she sat there,seemingly fuming.Must be a metemorphagus, she thought. Something new I've learnt about her.
Then she sat looking as Lasca made her way up to the staff table...A place where something seemed to be going on.
She hadn't noticed before but the teachers were either scrambling around on the floor or out cold it would seem.
And from the snippets of conversation she could hear...why were so many of them shocked to see the ghosts?
Mariel opened her mouth to reply to Sarah, but Lasca did before her. Which was probably a good thing. Mariel was terrified that if she said anything else that she would lose more points. So she merely nodded solemnly, confirming Lasca's words. She could tell as she glanced over to her fellow Ravenclaw that she was fuming inside. And Mariel didn't blame her. She had heard her explanation and the girl should not have been punished at all. As she looked, she thought she saw silver streaks in her hair. Was she a metamorphmagus? If so, why did she have such a strange reaction to Nathaniel? Mariel gave it up as a trick of the light. Perhaps the candles were flickering.
As Lasca got up from the table, Mariel turned to Sarah. Of course the girl was full of questions, but she wasn't going to answer - not right now. For all she knew that DADA professor could hear from the staff table. Mariel looked at Sarah with slightly widened eyes and quickly shook her head back and forth. She didn't need to lose any more points and Sarah didn't need to get dragged into it.
Turning to Lyra, Mariel said very quietly,
"I'll go with you tomorrow morning to give up your broom. I want to speak to Professor Vindictus as well." She was certain that details would soon reach his ears and she felt implored to apologize for her behavior.
