_[ STORY ]_
This story is dedicated to all my readers thank you all so much!
Grimtrix found himself in his old office at Hexley Hall, "why did you bring us here?" he asked.
Cedric glanced at him before moving around the desk, "your workshop was dismantled after your arrest, but this was your office for many years so I can assume you had a privet lab here as well."
"Well most who chose evil tend to have more than one place to plot from," Grimtrix said.
"I'll take that as a yes then," Cedric replied, "where is it?"
"Yes I did have another workshop, but its entrance is not here it is in the meeting room down the hall," Grimtrix said, "but from the clock its one and there will be people there right now."
Cedric smirked, "not for long," he said flicking his wand with a few words making the room shake and dust fall around them as a loud explosion echoed up to them from outside.
"Cedric!? What did you do?"
Many feet ran past the office heading towards the stairs leading to the main entrance, "nothing you need worry about," Cedric said pulling open the door, "don't dawdle now. Time is of the essence."
Grimtrix followed behind this shadow of the man he once called an allie.
Sofia sat in class bored for once; they had a substitute that repeated the same lesson they had gone over yesterday when the ground shook. The students looked around at each other before moving to the window; smoke billowed up from their sister school on the other side of the forest.
"Whoa, something happened at Hexley Hall," someone said.
"Students, please come away from the window's," the teacher said; a tri-color bubble appeared in the classroom.
"Will the student body and faculty make their way to the gymnasium!" Miss. Flora said.
"What do you think is going on," Hildegard asked walking beside Sofia.
"I don't know," Sofia said grasping her amulet, it pulsed slightly under her hand, "but I have a bad feeling."
Within the hour the students from both Hexley Hall and Royal Prep where sent home and members of the magic council came to investigate. Headmistress Samsonite was surprised at their prompt arrival.
"I am Primis* Maish of the Inquisitio Genere* of the Magic Council, start from the beginning and tell me what transpired here," Maish demanded of the headmaster.
Samsonite was taken aback for a moment, "well, it was the lunch hour for the students, and the staff was having its daily meeting when an explosion of some kind took place in the main courtyard. We immediately headed out to see the course, the fountain was gone, and a crater was in its place." she explained.
"Yes, I took a look at that before heading inside, it was made using a destruction spell," Maish said, "I'd like to see the meeting room."
"Sir, with all due respect, but our issue is not thereā¦"
"And with all due respect to you Headmistress I need to see that meeting room," Maish interrupted stepping closer to her.
"Very well; follow me."
They moved upstairs and into the meeting room, where the two found one of the walls slid open to reveal a staircase, "I thought so," Maish muttered, drawing his wand, "go and get my companion," he told the headmistress before making his way down.
As Maish came to the bottom he heard a pair of voices talking, peacing around the second door he saw the escaped prisoner he was sent to find and someone he was very much surprised to see.
"Hello Primis Maish," Cedric called turning, "won't you join us?" he asked waving his wand; another explosion rocked the school grounds.
