I don't think anybody was really paying attention at the moment;
there was pandemonium in the room from which Harry & Bellatrix left.
I don't think anyone with the exception of Neville, Remus, &
Dumbledore truly noticed that Harry'd ran after Bellatrix.

bit...confusing. When I before I read OoP, I have a lot of
questions, but now after I read it, I have more questions than ever
