Who: Eloise Midgen & Ernie Macmillan
What: The return of the Hufflepuff escapees continues - Ernie finds Eloise in quite a bad state.
When: Wednesday, 19 May. Late night, sometime after this. (Backdated)
Where: Hogwarts, near the greenhouses.
Rating: PG-13?
When Eloise opened her eyes, it was with the knowledge that all she could remember before this moment was brilliant, searing, relentless pain. The sky was dark and clear above her, and there was a damp coolness under her hands and neck - the grass was dewy. Her thoughts were a blur. Mentally, she groped for something coherent but found she couldn't.
It was nearly a minute before she realized that her nerves no longer felt as though they were on fire. There was still pain. Lots of it, in fact. More like an ache, now, interrupted periodically by sharp reminders of what she'd felt before. Before...how long had she been here?
Eloise's eyes darted first to one side, then the other. She tried to crane her neck, to move her head, but it hurt too much. She didn't want to move. The outer wall of a greenhouse was only a few feet away. Her lips fely very dry. She could feel her heart still pounding in her chest and could hear her breath coming quick.
Something was wrong. She couldn't tell where she was. She had to run. But her legs felt all wrong, and her muscles screamed. There was a noise, a low groan that grew sharply higher into a whine. With a jolt, Eloise realized she had made it.
