"Shit."
"Are you serious?"(no, I'm Severus. (In sorry. I had to😂)
"What happened?"
"Is she ok?"
"When did it happen?"
These were questions that were said around the room from all of us.

"Guys," Ethan interrupted us," stop talking and go pack your bags. We leave in thirty minutes and we will find out more answers when we get to the hospital ok?"
