Panting, Cassi ran into the office, and locked it with a non-verbal spell. She could hear the ruckus outside, shouting and things being blown to bits and knew she didn't have much time. Searching the desk on the left she opened the third drawer, tapping it three times, twice, and then a further six times. The false bottom disappeared, revealing a box engraved H.M, and Cassi opened it quickly. Several seemingly insignificant items were inside, and she wasted no time trying to find the thing she was after. Her hand brushed the orb like object at the back, and a faint voice called, "18 turns and smash...don't be late...return of the dark..." ignoring the stupid thing she yanked the time turner's chain and slammed the box shut again. Shoving it in her bag, she put the time turner around her neck and began to turn it.
1, 2, 3, 4, 5.
"That's the last room. She's trapped," a man practically growled from the other side of the door.
6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12.
"Bombarda!" the door was blown apart, dust and debris filling the air for a moment.
13, 14, 15, 16, 17.
"Gotcha! Extra core dilacerant!"
18! Cassi dove to the left, pain running through her shoulder instantly, and quickly smashed the time turner. Passing out from pain and exhaustion, the last thing she felt was an unfamiliar tug.
