Order Only: Private message to Severus Snape and Poppy Pomfrey

[alt_mcgonagall]

You are needed in Umbridge's office. Now.

Ask me no questions; I have no answers. I am given to understand that the situation is dire and that at least one young person is potentially in a bad way.

I'll just gather a few items and be on my way.

Mercy. No. Minerva, Antonin Dolohov has just arrived here with the Head Boy.

[alt_mcgonagall]

It is the same emergency. I am sure Severus will handle any other needs. And I am sure you are too busy to respond to this message, now.

I've just seen this; I was in the Charms classroom attempting to control Peeves.

I am on my way.

Bother. Lestrange made it here before me; he's taken control of the scene and is attempting to put together what happened. I will try to find out what happened as well, without being too obvious about it.

The rest of the children do appear to be unhurt, though Mr Potter appears to be mildly in shock.

[alt_mcgonagall]

I am particularly worried about Miss Granger. She may have committed an indiscretion.

[alt_severus]

I will ensure it does not become a problem.

[alt_mcgonagall]

Thank you, Severus.

[alt_severus]

Miss Granger assures me there is no danger, though she has been rather vague about details.

I am ensuring she remains safe with me in the midst of the chaos.
