............................Words simply cannot describe the anguish I've been feeling the past few days. I hope you all wrote your families letting them know you're all right. As soon as I'm finished here, I'm going to write an owl to my mum and dad, and let them know I'm okay.
But....my God, how could we have let this happen????????????????? I have never seen this much bloodshed.....I know I'm supposed to be calm and brave like an Auror should, but this....this was too much. I saw children - children - being killed right before my eyes. And Katie.....Katie was one of the few students I had bonded with during my time here.....she was going to become an excellent Auror, one who would save many lives.....she was killed right before my eyes, and I tried to save her, I did...
Harry, I know I said in comment to your journal that it was Voldemort's fault, but it was our fault too. But it's my fault too. I...as an Auror, I should have seen the signs, I should have known that Bill was under the Imperius Curse, but....god, I hope you all can forgive me and the other adults...we tried to save them. We really did. But there was just too many Death Eaters....
I need to stop thinking about it. I have to get the scene out of my head, like I had to do with another tragedy that occured last year.....Harry, Remus, you know what I'm talking about.
Ignore the Daily Prophet. They're a bunch of codswallop, really. They're bloody idiots. Hogwarts is still safe.....if anything it will be safer after this summer is over. I know Dumbledore's going to have more spells casted around the grounds. And with those and the reinforcement of the spells Godric Gryffindor, Helga Hufflepuff, Revina Ravenclaw, and Salazar Slytherin casted centuries ago, this will be an incredibly safe place.
Again, I'm sorry I couldn't have saved more....I'm sorry.
