Hearing Noah mutter Haddock's name sent a cold fire through him all at once. He was more than pissed now. Some fucking school appointed authority figure there. It only seemed to prove a point about snotty purist assholes anyway, Cody mused bitterly as he lifted Noah as gently as possible form the sodden ground and shifted the weight uncomfortably. His silence was the type you can hear, the kind that pops with reactive anger as they started to move the rather cumbersome form of Noah across the lawn toward the castle.

The distance had never looked so far, he thought, as they awkwardly managed to tote their friend between them. It's not that Noah was heavy, because he wasn't really at all, considering the two of them - but he was limp and cumbersome to maneuver especially dangling there like a human hammock. Once they got him through the main doors, after a short flight of steps that seemed like six flights Cody shoved open the door roughly and caught it with his leg.

He might have lost if it the teen hadn't yelled at a second year to hold the door for them and the kid obeyed wide-eyed as they passed. "Have you ever seen this before?" He grunted at Davy while pushing forward, referring of course to the hex that still had Noah very much under its control.
