The sun rose steadily over what was once known as the fearful castle overblow, painting the stone walls a burnt amber colour, and slipped into the open windows, making the rooms glow.

Amelia Cackle smiled slightly; she was sat in her office going through the morning post as the sun gently floated through her window. Slowly, she lifted her gaze from the letter she had been reading to the open window, smiling slightly. She stood by it and sighed dreamily, oh how she did love summer mornings! The sight of the slowly changing colour of her walls caused a small smile to appear on her lips; everything was perfect

Amelia had no idea how long she remained this way, (to her it really felt no time at all.) Suddenly, she was jolted back to earth by a sharp, precise knock at the door.

"Come in Constance," Amelia didn't turn from the window, she didn't need to. Over the past ten years Amelia had gotten to know that knock, short but precise, it had a tone to it that made you listen, even if it was lacking in volume at times. In short, it was exactly like her deputy. She heard the door close and turned around.

"Yes Constance?" Amelia questioned politely. Constance Hardbroom sighed and stepped towards the desk.

"Miss Cackle, I do not wish to bother you, but I believe we have a staff meeting that should have started 3 minutes and 45 seconds ago." Constance Hardbroom was one of those people where timing was everything; every part of her day was planned to run smoothly, every lesson to be perfectly organised… well, it would be if it wasn't for the pupils she was teaching… especially that Mildred Hubble.

Miss Cackle jumped and snapped her eyes to the clock on the wall; she had been daydreaming for nearly half an hour! Recovering quickly, Amelia nodded to her deputy,

"I see Constance; well, we had better start then hadn't we?" Amelia said, and with that she practically ran out of her office to the staff room still clutching her letter. Closely following her was deputy who strode purposely, after her. Constance Hardbroom never ran anywhere.
