I Solemnly Swear That I Am Up To No Good

[alt_sally_anne]

Jeremy and I went flying today and


I saw something today I

Jeremy counted, he's such a Ravenclaw, there were 134

It's true what Sirius Black said about the sickness.

I have to go make dinner now. I washed Neville I wish I just want to leave, I want to get out of here, floo myself to Pansy's or Hogwarts or anywhere, and Gemma's coming

I didn't go down close enough to get infected so don't worry. Jeremy and I rode our brooms and he also showed me how to cast the bubblehead charm and we just looked down from the air.

There were 134 bodies lying in a field. Lined up in rows. Jeremy counted. There were more the next field over but he decided not to count those. And we didn't go to any of the other farms.

We saw people out trying to dig graves only they couldn't the ground was too hard and I saw one of them fall down right where he was digging.

If I'd been a Gryffindor I would've gone down to try

Do you really have to stay there? Do you think if you asked the Headmistress you could come back here? Or if you asked Professor Slughorn?

134 is a lot.

It's alright Ron, I'm not as upset as I was earlier.

I can just stay in the house, like the Strettons want me to anyway.

Did Stretton tell his parents?

[alt_sally_anne]

No. We agreed before we set out it would be a secret, he doesn't want to get in trouble any more than I do. And then after we got back he made me promise him I wouldn't breathe a word to them, and he promised me too without me asking.

I think he just wants to forget everything he saw.
