The girl that couldn't be sorted (Year 1)

I couldn't save them...

I was in the hospital wing once again. However, I was alone this time. No Hermione.

I stood up and ran to the door, but before I could open it, madame Pomfrey grabbed me.

"Where do you think you're going?"

"I have to see Hermione and professor Dumbledore!"

I felt so angry, scared and free at the same time. I had to tell them what happened. We were all in danger.

"Miss Wendall, you're not strong enough yet. You need to stay here, so lay down and wait. I'll get some medicine."

She walked away, still looking at me. When she was far enough I opened the door and ran away. I could hear her scream.

" Miss Wendall, come back. Help, a patient escaped!"

She said it like I was mental. I ran up the stairs to the Gryffindor common room. The Fat Lady opened as I said the password and I ran inside.

As everyone saw me it went quiet. The Gryffindor common room had never been this quiet before. I could see Hermione crying in the corner, Harry and Ron trying to cheer her up. I ran to them and Hermione looked scared of me. I couldn't blame her, after all, I tried to kill her. I know I didn't really have a choice but still. Luckily I broke out. I could save Hermione, but I couldn't save the other three...

"Why didn't you tell me?" Hermione whispered.

"Hermione, that's not important and besides, you know that I couldn't. What I wanted to say is; we're in danger."

I couldn't save those three...

"Jade, slow down. What do you mean we're in danger?" Harry asked.

I couldn't save them!

"We have to go to Dumbledore. We're all in danger!"

I couldn't save them...

"I COULDN'T SAVE THEM!"

Everyone looked at me. Hermione grabbed my arm and walked to the door. Harry and Ron followed us while we left the common room.

"Jade! What's wrong?!? Who couldn't you save?"

I'd never seen Hermione like this before. Hurt, scared and sad. I did that to her, I screwed up.

"I couldn't save them..."

And I fell on the ground. I was crying for the first time in so long.
I failed. I ruined everything!

"Jade? I don't know what happened, but I'm sorry, okay? You need to tell us what happened."

Always Ron trying to comfort people. He wasn't the best one with it but somehow it always worked. I took a deep breath.

"I'm a murderer. I killed them. I couldn't save them. A Hufflepuff boy, first year. A Ravenclaw boy, second year. A Slytherin girl, third year. I killed them all."

I'd stopped crying. I just looked straight forward.
It remained silent. I saw Hermione, Ron and Harry looking at each other. Probably thinking I was mental, just like Madame Pomfrey.

"Did you really d-"

Harry's sentence was cut off by Madame Pomfrey and professor Mcgonagall, running up the stairs shouting.

"Miss Wendall, you need to go back to the hospital wing!"

I quickly stood up and ran away. At first it worked, but then on the last stair I fell and couldn't stand up in time. My body felt really cold and I closed my eyes.
